Reactions of the Dou Venerates, Target: Semi-Saint Fire Lizards

"That group of people is here again," Xiao Yi Xian suddenly said.

Xiao Yan and Yao Lao looked over.

After sensing the situation briefly, Yao Lao said, "It's a group of Dou Venerate, Shi Tian is among them."

Xiao Yan understood instantly.

In the time it took to speak, several spatial rifts appeared in the Square.

A large group of fighters, led by Shi Tian, Dou Venerate a new appearance.

Their gazes swept over Xiao Yi Xian, Yao Chen, Feng Xian, finally settling on Xiao Yan.

"Master Xiao Yan, what was that commotion just now?" Shi Tian, still shaken, glanced at the seemingly severed clouds and asked Xiao Yan.

The other Dou Venerate also looked at Xiao Yan with curious eyes, waiting for an answer.

The overwhelming pressure and the terrifying miracle before them filled them with trepidation.

Xiao Yan did not answer directly, but instead looked at Yao Chen.

Yao Chen nodded slightly, making no attempt to hide his agreement.

With Yao Chen's permission, Xiao Yan chose to give these Dou Venerate an answer, which would also make it easier for him to completely subdue this group.

"That was caused by my teacher's breakthrough. These marks in the sky are just him practicing his skills." Xiao Yan said calmly, as if he were just recounting an ordinary little thing.

As Shi Tian and the others listened, their eyes slowly widened.

Agile movements?!

With a casual movement, he split the clouds in two?!

Shi Tian swallowed hard, instinctively lowering his voice and becoming even more humble. "Master Xiao Yan, may I ask what your master's cultivation level is?"

Xiao Yan's lips curled into a smile as he held up two fingers.

Shi Tian and the others looked at each other, their faces filled with doubt.

"Master Xiao Yan, is your master only Two-Turn Dou Venerate?"

Xiao Yan retorted, "When did I say my master was only Two-Turn Dou Venerate?"

Shi Tian asked in confusion, "Then what do you mean by holding up two fingers...?"

Shi Tian suddenly stopped halfway through his speech, a terrifying thought arising in his mind.

Sweat dripped slowly from his forehead. He swallowed hard, his voice trembling, "You mean... Two-Star Dou Saint?!"

Xiao Yan was thoroughly satisfied and nodded with a smile, "Not bad."

The entire venue fell into a deathly silence.

Like Shi Tian, the other Dou Venerate who came with him had beads of sweat slowly seeping from their foreheads, their clothes soaked with sweat.

Dou Sheng... Dou Sheng... Dou Sheng!

A legendary Dou Sheng Expert!

That was a top-tier expert who was absolutely impossible to find in the entire Northwest Continent; he could easily crush them all on the spot!

Now someone tells them that this person's master is a Two-Star Dou Saint powerhouse!

Fear, trembling, horror, joy, and worship—a complex mix of emotions filled their minds.

Shi Tian's brain was working at lightning speed.

He searched his entire body and finally took off the Storage Ring he was wearing on his hand.

He stepped forward with a humble smile, then handed the Storage Ring to Xiao Yan: "Master Xiao Yan, this is a congratulatory gift for your master's breakthrough. I hope you won't find it offensive."

Xiao Yan did not accept the Storage Ring, and chuckled, "Lion Sky Sect is still the same as before."

"There's no need for this Storage Ring; the Lion Underworld Sect's stance has always been firm."

"In the future, you will have a place in the Northwest Continent, and even in the entire Central Plains."

Upon hearing Xiao Yan's promise, Shi Tian trembled as he withdrew his hand, deeply moved.

He knew Xiao Yan was a loyal and righteous person! Their Lion Underworld Sect hadn't made a mistake in betting on him!

In contrast, the other Dou Venerate all looked extremely ugly upon hearing Xiao Yan's words.

If they had known this would happen, they could have been just as obsequious as the Lion Underworld Sect Lion Underworld Sect, or even more so!

Unfortunately, there are no "what ifs" in the Dou Qi Continent.

The earliest investment opportunity has passed.

When Yao Lao, Two-Star Dou Saint, stood here, everything lost its meaning.

The Square fell silent for a few seconds, then suddenly, a figure rushed out from among the many Dou Venerate.

"Master Xiao Yan, our entire Profound Heaven Sect has long admired the Tian Shu Alliance. I am willing to lead our entire sect to join the Tian Shu Alliance. Please grant my request!"

Seeing this, the other Dou Venerate also rushed forward in droves.

Investing now is a bit late, but the growth of the Tian Shu Alliance is foreseeable. Joining now can at least prevent your sect from suffering the same fate as the Waning Moon Sect!

"You can go to Yan City and talk to Elder Xiao Ding about these things yourselves." Xiao Yan waved his hand, unwilling to waste time with them, but he did not refuse.

Although the lives and deaths of these Dou Venerate were of little difference to him, turning them into puppets would make them even more loyal.

But if he really kills these people, then the sects behind them must also be wiped out, otherwise there will be endless troubles.

In this way, it's impossible to know how many people will have to be killed, or how many manpower will be lost.

Although the Tian Shu Alliance has Yao Lao, a Two-Star Dou Saint, in charge, it must have a unique development strategy if it wants to make a name for itself in the vast Central Plains.

"Surrounding the cities from the countryside" was the strategy Xiao Yan chose.

Starting from the outskirts of Central Plains and gradually expanding towards Central Plains core, it will eventually flourish.

Such a strategy requires high-level combat power, but he can control those high-level magical beasts and also refine Heavenly Demon Puppet with the strength of Dou Venerate, which he can then entrust to a trusted person to control.

Therefore, what is truly needed is mid-to-lower-level combat power, and the sects behind these Dou Venerate are indispensable to their disciples.

Therefore, these Dou Venerate are able to survive not because of their own value, but because of the disciples of the sects behind them.

He stopped entangled with the group of Dou Venerate.

Xiao Yan and his three companions left the Square immediately.

Before leaving the Heavenly Snake Empire, Xiao Yan informed the Snake-People Tribe Great Elder of their departure.

Then they broke through space and returned to Yan City.

With his current Yao Chen level of Two-Star Dou Saint Sheng, Yao Chen's travel speed is many times faster than Xiao Yan and Xiao Yi Xian.

It seemed like only a blink of an eye, and the four of them had already returned to Yan City.

Now that Yao Chen has been resurrected and has his own body, he also needs a place to live.

Upon arriving at the Tian Shu Alliance, Xiao Yan specifically summoned Xiao Ding, Xiao Li, and Hai Bodong, who were still in the city, and informed them of Yao Lao's presence.

Of course, fearing the three wouldn't accept it, he didn't reveal too much.

He only said that Yao Lao his master, and that his status in the Tian Shu Alliance would be equal to Yao Lao's.

At the same time, he asked his elder brother Xiao Ding, to arrange a place for the Yao Lao to stay.

After giving a brief explanation, only Xiao Yan, Yao Lao, Xiao Yi Xian, and Feng Xian remained in the main hall.

After talking with Feng Xian for a while, Yao Lao said that he would return to the Star Meteor Pavilion later, but he would stay in the Tian Shu Alliance for the time being to protect Xiao Yan.

Feng Xian understood Yao Lao's choice and said that he would transfer the position of Pavilion Master to Yao Lao after Yao Lao returned to the Star Meteor Pavilion.

As for now, Star Meteor Pavilion cannot function without someone, so he had no choice but to return first.

Xiao Yan did not stop him.

The Tian Shu Alliance needs the assistance of the Star Meteor Pavilion to expand into the Central Plains.

But now, he has more important things to do.

For example, he's been annoyed by those two Semi-Saint level Fire Lizard in the Earth Core Magma World for a long time.
