"Xiao Yan? You're that kid from the Xiao Family of the Jia Ma Empire?" Ling Quan narrowed his eyes, then looked as though he had suddenly remembered something. He smiled. "I remember now. Back then, you were the Xiao Family's infamous good-for-nothing. I was curious enough to look at your portrait."
"Ling Quan!" Xiao Xun'er was just about to lose her temper when Xiao Yan stopped her.
Xiao Yan stepped forward and stood in front of Xiao Xun'er, asking coldly, "And who are you?"
"My name is Ling Quan, Deputy Commander of the Ancient Clan's Black Annihilation Army. Though I suppose there's no point in telling you. Then again, most of your Xiao Family probably hasn't even heard of our Ancient Clan by now. You've truly declined to the very limit." Ling Quan chuckled, his eyes full of mockery.
The current Xiao Family likely did not even have a single Dou Wang. Compared to its boundless glory a thousand years ago, it was truly no better than an ant.
Xiao Yan's expression gradually turned cold as flickers of wandering fury ignited in his eyes.
He could endure insults directed at himself, because he had long grown used to them. But the man before him was filled with contempt and ridicule toward the Xiao Family. That was something he could not tolerate.
His hand reached behind his back and tightly gripped the Mysterious Heavy Ruler.
Ling Quan was rather surprised at the sight, then burst into laughter and said disdainfully, "A mere Seven-Star Dou Ling wants to make a move against me?"
"Ling Quan! The Xiao Family has had an alliance with our Ancient Clan since ancient times. What do you mean by insulting the Xiao Family like this? Are you trying to lower the Ancient Clan's standing as well?" Seeing
