Space Lock

"Stop!"

Seeing that if things continued like this, he would either be beaten to death or die from excessive blood loss, Fan Lao quickly called for a stop.

"What's wrong? Wasn't Sect Leader Fan just acting like a powerful figure? Why does he look like a stray dog now?"

Xiao Yan said with a cold laugh.

"Since you need that soul Dou Technique so much, just say so. I, Fan, have never liked to take what others love. The soul Dou Technique is right here. Today, I, Fan, and you have become friends through this unexpected encounter."

As Fan Lao spoke, he took out a silver-white scroll, which emitted a faint, chilling spiritual fluctuation.

Upon hearing this, Xiao Yan couldn't help but chuckle.

Just a moment ago it was "this sect," and now it's "Fan"? And this scroll, heh heh...

"Ha, Sect Leader Fan, you're foolish! If I kill you, that Dou Technique will be mine too!"

Xiao Yan sneered, and his figure flashed out again, leaving several cobalt blue afterimages in the sky as he approached Fan Lao.

"You!!!"

Fan Lao never expected that this young man, despite his young age, would act with the ruthless style of a veteran Black Corner Region expert. He was both shocked and furious.

However, it's obvious that there's really nothing he can do if Xiao Yan wants to do this.

"If you make another move, I will destroy this soul- Dou Technique!"

Fan Lao gripped the silver-white scroll in his hand, his palm surging with bloody light, clearly preparing to destroy it.

"No need for your help. Compared to soul Dou Technique, killing you is more important to me now!"

Xiao Yan's cold laughter rang out, and then the Heavy Profound Ruler appeared. Heavenly Flames and Dou Qi condensed on it to form a flaming lion. With a flick of his wrist, he threw the Heavy Profound Ruler away.

The Mad Lion Roar!

The fiery lion charged towards Fan Lao, aiming directly at his palm. Its Dou Qi and Heavenly Flames erupted, shattering both Fan Lao's hand and the scroll!

"Ughhhh!!!"

Fan Lao was clearly surprised by Xiao Yan's ruthlessness, disregarding even the soul Dou Technique. By the time he reacted, his hand and half of his arm had been blasted apart, his flesh and blood evaporated by the Heavenly Flames, and he let out a shrill scream.

But his other hand was just as quick, slamming it directly into his own chest. He spat out a mouthful of blood, which turned into a cloud of blood mist, and his figure vanished instantly.

The next moment, he appeared above Xiao Yi Xian, grinning with a ferocious expression:

"Boy, since you're so ruthless, don't blame me for sending your woman to her death first!"

Seeing this, Xiao Yan pursed his lips, trying his best to suppress a smile.

Knowing yourself and your enemy is the key to victory in every battle.

He knew Fan Lao's tricks perfectly well!

Even before taking action, Xiao Yan had already placed the Bone Flame Ring on Xiao Yi Xian's hand.

That's precisely to guard against this move.

Of course, there was also a degree of calculation involved, as they anticipated that Fan Lao might resort to desperate measures and attack Xiao Yi Xian.

If Fan Lao could calm down and carefully sense his surroundings, he would have discovered that Xiao Yan's aura had already dropped to the level of One-Star Dou Emperor. If they fought any longer, Xiao Yan would truly be unable to continue fighting him.

After all, Old Yao couldn't continuously supply Xiao Yan with power at this moment...

As for that so-called soul Dou Technique?

This Fan Lao has truly lost his mind.

They actually tried to deceive Xiao Yan with a fake scroll.

Although Xiao Yan is currently only at the level of Fourth-Tier Alchemist, in reality, even Peak Dou Emperor expert might not be much stronger than Xiao Yan in terms of soul power.

That move just now, shattering the scroll—a clear attempt to kill Fan Lao —was designed to make him make a desperate attempt to rush towards Xiao Yi Xian.

It's important to understand that, compared to Xiao Yan, who was just an observer, Xiao Yi Xian, who was reborn, could actually possess the combat power of Dou Zong without needing Old Yao to fight for her, provided she had enough strength.

As Fan Lao drew ever closer, a chilling white glint flashed in Xiao Yi Xian's eyes.

The next moment, she calmly raised her hand and grabbed Fan Lao.

Fan Lao's figure was frozen in place by the Spatial Strength.

Feeling the binding Spatial Strength, Fan Lao's eyes were immediately filled with horror.

The woman before me is actually a Dou Zong expert?

Damn it!

Is this reasonable?

Fan Lao cursed inwardly, but no matter how much he cursed, he couldn't solve his current predicament.

"Burst!"

Xiao Yan shouted in a deep voice, and the eight hidden flame energies that had already been injected into Fan Lao's body also erupted. The compressed Cobalt Blue Flame instantly ignited from his body.

The reason Xiao Yan didn't detonate those eight hidden energies was because he was worried that Fan Lao still had some tricks up his sleeve.

But right now, he's suppressed by the Spatial Strength and can't do anything. If this hidden force explodes again, he won't have time to spare to use his Dou Qi Spatial Strength blockade.

In this way...

After a few flashes, Xiao Yan appeared behind Fan Lao, and then a cobalt blue flame rose from his palm and gently touched Fan Lao's back.

"Boom!"

The next moment, cobalt blue flames emerged from Fan Lao's seven orifices and quickly spread throughout his body. Fan Lao did not cry out, because his vocal cords had already been burned to nothingness, and his already weak aura rapidly weakened until it disappeared.

Xiao Yan waved his hand, and a blood-red Storage Ring flew into Xiao Yan hand from the rising Cobalt Blue Flame.

"Done!"

Xiao Yan glanced at the soul Dou Technique in his Storage Ring, as well as the secret technique of the Thunder God Descent, and grinned.

As for Fan Lao, who gradually turned to ashes and drifted away...

Nobody cared.

Oh, so Xiao Yi Xian did seem to care a little.

Although this old man isn't a good person, he just said she was Xiao Yan's woman...

Hmm, he does have some insight in this regard, but unfortunately it's useless. Since Xiao Yan needs him to die, then he has to die.

Here, take it back.

Xiao Yi Xian returned the Bone Flame Ring to Xiao Yan.

Thanks.

Xiao Yan put the ring back on his hand, then smiled and said to Xiao Yi Xian.

There's no need for thanks between us.

Xiao Yi Xian smiled, her eyes crinkling, which stirred a slight flutter in one's heart.

"Well, let's go. We can't stay here any longer. The people from the Eight Fan Sect will probably be here soon. Heh, even though they're a shady business, I don't have time to kill Yuan Yi anymore. I still need to figure out a way to talk to the academy and arrange for you to join us in the Inner Academy entrance exam."

Xiao Yan smiled and reached out his hand. Seeing this, Xiao Yi Xian opened her arms and hugged Xiao Yan's waist tightly.

With his arms tightly around Xiao Yi Xian's slender waist, Xiao Yan flapped his Purple Cloud Wings and soared into the sky. After making a turn in the air, he roared and flew towards the northern horizon.
