Xun Er, Wait for Me-I'll Come to the Ancient Clan and Marry You

"Thump!"

In the silent magma, bubbles surged and burst, and a figure enveloped in sky-blue flames burst forth, finally hovering in mid-air, wearily wiping the sweat from its brow.

After reaching an agreement with Venerable Skyfire, Xiao Yan used Venerable Skyfire's power to conceal his aura and swim out of the lava sea without alerting any of the Flame Lizardman.

That place is still somewhat dangerous for him at this stage.

The good news is that Xiao Yan has also gained quite a lot this time.

The Venerable Skyfire was rescued, the Five Wheel Separation Fire Method was also obtained, and the problem with the Heavenly Burning Qi Refining Tower was also solved.

It's important to understand that after obtaining so many Heavenly Flames, what Xiao Yan needed most was the Five Wheel Separation Fire Method.

This fire control technique allows Xiao Yan to rapidly improve his Fire Energy, which is extremely helpful in controlling newly born Heavenly Flames and balancing the relationship between various Heavenly Flames.

Similarly, improved Fire Energy control will also greatly benefit Xiao Yan's Alchemy.

Coupled with the powerful strength of the Five Wheel Separation Fire Method, it can undoubtedly become one of Xiao Yan's trump cards!

This point is equally crucial.

Xiao Yan didn't intend to waste too much time at the Jia Nan Academy, or rather, in the Black Corner Region.

Cultivating influence can only be done by hiring people; he doesn't have that much free time.

When he needs strength, what he will do will definitely be integration!

Looking at the two Storage Rings, one black and one white, on his right hand, and the three Storage Rings, one gold, one blue, and one light blue, on his left hand, Xiao Yan's gaze darkened slightly.

The two on the right hand, needless to say, one belongs to Old Yao and the other to Venerable Skyfire.

The golden Storage Ring on his left hand was a gift from Xun'er; the light blue one was a gift from Yun Yun; and the blue one was equipment dropped by Han Feng.

In addition, Xiao Yan also carried several low-level Storage Ring, each containing a little something.

"Finally, I can see the world beyond the lava again. I've missed it so much..."

A phantom figure in white robes floated out of the Storage Ring. Venerable Skyfire gazed at the surrounding mountain walls and sighed.

Xiao Yan smiled, then clenched his fist against the mountain wall. A black shadow shot out and finally transformed into Heavy Ruler, landing in his hand.

"Xiao Yan, my soul can still hold on for a while. If you want to cultivate the Five Wheel Separation Fire Method, you can come to me anytime."

After sighing for a moment, Venerable Skyfire turned his gaze to Xiao Yan and said with a smile.

Xiao Yan smiled and nodded, saying:

"Thank you very much, Senior Tian Huo. I will ask someone to find medicinal herbs to restore soul power and help you restore it as soon as possible."

Upon hearing this Venerable Skyfire simply waved his hand, and with a flick of his body, transformed into a beam of light and disappeared into the snow-white Storage Ring.

Seeing Venerable Skyfire disappear back into his Storage Ring, Xiao Yan pondered for a moment before preparing to go out and resolve the matter of the Heavenly Burning Qi Refining Tower.

With that thought, Xiao Yan flapped his sky-blue flame wings and flew towards the Heavenly Burning Qi Refining Tower.

"It's been two and a half hours, something can't have happened..."

Inside the tenth floor of the Heavenly Burning Qi Refining Tower, Great Elder Su Qian paced back and forth, muttering to himself with some unease.

To be honest, he was quite worried about Xiao Yan.

That Underground Magma World was a dead end for him; although Xiao Yan's strength had greatly increased,...

Um?

Just as he was pondering, the sound of wind breaking came, and he quickly turned his head to look, only to find that it was Xiao Yan returning from that Underground Magma World.

Are you alright?

Seeing Xiao Yan return, Su Qian quickly went to greet him and asked.

"Great Elder, rest assured. With the protection of the Heavenly Flames, this Underground Magma World is the best place for me to cultivate. I plan to cultivate here for a while in the coming period. Before that, I naturally need to resolve the matter of the Heavenly Burning Qi Refining Tower."

Xiao Yan said with a smile.

Upon hearing this, Great Elder Su Qian felt much relieved, but then he realized Xiao Yan's implied meaning and was immediately shocked!

"Could it be that...!"

Seeing Great Elder Su Qian's shocked gaze, Xiao Yan smiled and nodded. He opened his mouth, and an invisible flame wrapped in sky-blue flames was spat out, landing in Xiao Yan's palm.

The sky-blue flames slowly dissipated, and the nascent Fallen Heart Flame appeared before Great Elder Su Qian.

"They actually found it?"

Great Elder Su Qian could naturally tell that Xiao Yan was in good condition at the moment, and was definitely not the kind of person who was putting on an act after forcibly separating the Heavenly Flames from his body.

He sensed it carefully for a moment, then exclaimed excitedly, "Good, good, good!"

Xiao Yan smiled and explained:

"This Fallen Heart Flame is still in its infancy. As long as there are elders in the Inner Academy who practice fire-attribute techniques to continuously infuse it with Dou Qi, the Heart Fire it provides can still enable the Heavenly Burning Qi Refining Tower to function again."

Perhaps many years later, this Fallen Heart Flame will be able to evolve into sentience. At that time, after being nurtured by the Inner Academy, it will certainly no longer be hostile to the Inner Academy. Therefore, the Heavenly Burning Qi Refining Tower may be able to remain open forever."

Hearing Xiao Yan's simple and gentle words, Great Elder Su Qian's face beamed with even greater joy.

It should be noted that in the eyes of some elders in the Inner Academy, giving Xiao Yan the Fallen Heart Flame to refine was considered a loss.

However, they didn't say much. After that battle, who didn't know that Xiao Yan had a Dou Zun- level expert behind him?

With such support, naturally no one dared to act recklessly.

However, as the Heavenly Burning Qi Refining Tower's effects became increasingly poor, some elders began to express their dissatisfaction.

Of course, their dissatisfaction stemmed from the fact that Su Qian's actions would cause Jia Nan Academy to lose its core competitiveness.

Besides, these old guys are all counting on the Fallen Heart Flame for help.

But the presence of this nascent Fallen Heart Flame today is clearly a great thing for the Inner Academy.

Su Qian took out the Fire Gathering Pot and had Xiao Yan put the Fallen Heart Flame into it.

"I never expected that there would be another Fallen Heart Flame in the Magma World. Even the Headmaster of that time didn't discover it." Su Qian looked at the tiny flame inside the Fire Gathering Pot, first shaking his head in amazement, then holding the Fire Gathering Pot like a precious treasure, and said to Xiao Yan with a smile, "You've worked hard, little guy. You took away a wild and untamed mature Heavenly Flames, but returned a docile nascent Heavenly Flames to the Inner Academy. This can't be considered even; the Inner Academy owes you!"

At this point, Su Qian pulled out more than a dozen Storage Ring and gave them all to Xiao Yan.

"These are the things I collected after I led my team to the Black Corner Region and thoroughly searched the forces of those powerful figures you killed. I've already organized them for you, so please keep them safe."

He scooped up the Storage Ring and, after a quick scan with his soul power, Xiao Yan grinned.

We've struck it rich!

Now his supplies are not only enough for his own use, but also enough for the Xiao Family and for the forces he is about to establish in the Black Corner Region!

Awesome!

"Then the student would be impolite to refuse."

Xiao Yan smiled and put all the Storage Ring away.

"Well, I'm going to find the elders to test the effects of this Heavenly Flames. Would you like to come up with me, or..."

Great Elder Su Qian pondered for a moment, then asked earnestly.

"Well, I won't get involved in this matter. I want to cultivate properly for a while longer. However, I need the Great Elder to help me find some medicinal herbs to repair my soul. I have a list here; I'll trouble the Great Elder to do so."

After pondering for a moment, Xiao Yan took out a scroll and said seriously.

"Leave this to me. You'd better take good care of yourself down there."

Upon hearing this, Great Elder Su Qian understood that Xiao Yan was indeed preparing to continue his seclusion at the bottom of the tower for some time.

"Don't worry, Great Elder."

Xiao Yan smiled and nodded.

"Um."

Upon hearing this, Su Qian nodded, and his figure vanished from the spot.

Xiao Yan didn't rush down; he simply waited silently.

A moment later, when an invisible flame appeared without warning at Xiao Yan's heart, Xiao Yan smiled slightly, then turned around and jumped into the cave leading to the Underground Magma World with satisfaction.

After landing on a mountain peak, Xiao Yan pondered for a moment, then gently stroked the golden Storage Ring given to him by Xun'er.

Suddenly, a dark, ancient scroll appeared in his palm.

The scroll was perfectly round, like a cylinder, with no way to open it. However, the faint, dark light emanating from it hinted at its extraordinary nature.

This is the Ancient Clan's ultimate Dou Technique, the Emperor Seal Art, which Xun'er solemnly gifted to Xiao Yan before she left!

To cultivate this Dou Technique, one needs at least the strength of Dou Wang.

Now, eight months have passed, and Xiao Yan has transformed into a true Dou Wang expert. Naturally, he can now properly study the Emperor Seal Art.

It's been eight months since Xun'er left...

Xiao Yan lowered his eyelids slightly, then gripped the scroll tightly in his hand, and his Dou Qi surged into it under his encouragement.

"Click!"

After a full quarter of an hour of pouring in Dou Qi, the pitch-black scroll, which had not reacted much until then, finally emitted a faint clicking sound.

At this moment, a tiny crack had quietly appeared on the surface of the scroll, and the cracking sound from earlier came from it.

Seeing that the scroll was not far from being opened, Xiao Yan increased the amount of Dou Qi he injected. Soon, golden light shone from the gaps, and the pitch-black outer shell exploded completely. Brilliant golden light suddenly burst out from the scroll. The light was so intense that even Xiao Yan felt a stinging pain in his eyes and had to attach the Heavenly Flames to his eyes.

After the scroll exploded, a large amount of golden light shone in the air in front of Xiao Yan, and some unfamiliar characters surged within the golden light.

These densely packed golden characters looked quite mysterious, and Xiao Yan couldn't understand them. So he slowly stretched out his palm and finally probed into the ball of golden light.

As Xiao Yan's palm reached in, the golden light surged violently, then transformed into a golden beam that struck Xiao Yan's head directly. At the moment of contact, the golden light entered Xiao Yan's mind without any hindrance.

As soon as the golden light entered his brain, Xiao Yan felt an extremely intense throbbing pain, but this pain was naturally no match for him.

So, Xiao Yan casually poured his soul power into the golden light, and immediately, his mind sank as he entered a golden world.

Countless characters formed from golden light pieced together, eventually creating a light screen in mid-air. On the light screen, the large golden characters exuded an aura of antiquity and nobility.

Emperor Seal Art: Advanced Earth Tier Dou Technique, consisting of five forms: Mountain Opening Seal, Sea- Sea Overturning Seal, Earth Covering Seal, Heaven Annihilating Seal, and Ancient Emperor Seal. Each seal is interconnected; when all five seals are mastered, they possess the power to overturn rivers and seas and suppress the heavens and earth! When the five seals are combined, their power is comparable to Heaven Tier Battle Skill! However, to cultivate this seal, one must reach the Dou Wang level; otherwise, failure to cultivate the seal will bring suffering upon oneself!

"Sigh, Xun'er, I miss you a little..."

Thinking of the golden scroll in his Storage Ring that contained the cultivation methods for the Earth Covering Seal, the Heaven Annihilating Seal, and the Ancient Emperor Seal, Xiao Yan felt even more strongly that Xun'er was truly unconditionally good to him.

Unlike these older sisters who all seem a bit off, Xun'er is simply Xun'er.

I didn't have any other thoughts; I just wanted to be good to myself.

That was the purest emotion, the most innocent love.

A young girl's feelings are simple yet passionate, and they are the most touching.

Even knowing she was hiding something, she still believed that her Brother Xiao Yan would never hurt her. She never put any pressure on Xiao Yan, and no matter what he became, he would always be her beloved Brother Xiao Yan...

As Xiao Yan's mind was stirred, the dazzling golden light screen contracted, transforming into a beam of golden light that pierced through Xiao Yan mind and imprinted itself deep within his brain. That was the cultivation method for the Xiao Yan -Mountain Opening Seal and the Sea Overturning Seal.

However, before Xiao Yan could study it carefully, a soft and melodious familiar voice suddenly rang out, causing Xiao Yan's heart to tremble violently.

"Brother Xiao Yan, if you can open the scroll and hear my message, then you must have already advanced to the Dou Wang level. Congratulations, Brother Xiao Yan!"

There's not much time left to leave a message, so I'll keep it brief. The Emperor Seal Art is one of the most profound Dou Technique of our clan. Xun'er paid a price to get the last three seals for Brother Xiao Yan. However, the Emperor Seal Art is a secret of our clan. If it is leaked, the clan will definitely send someone to retrieve it. Therefore, Brother Xiao Yan must use it with caution!

And... Brother Xiao Yan, Xun'er will cultivate diligently and wait for you to come to the Ancient Clan to marry me. But don't rush, don't overwork yourself, take it slow. No matter how long it takes, Xun'er will wait for you."

The gentle voice echoed in his mind, gradually fading away, but Xiao Yan's heart was stirred intensely by that last sentence. How could he not love that lovely girl who was so sincere to him?

As his mind slowly withdrew from his thoughts, Xiao Yan slowly opened his eyes, staring blankly at the broken scroll on the ground. After a moment, his fist clenched tightly, and a muttered voice echoed faintly in the Underground Magma World:

"Xun'er, wait for me, I will definitely come to find you! No one can stop me!"
