The moment You Yun crushed a jade tablet, an invisible hurricane instantly swept through the world. The space was twisted and cracked under the sweep of the hurricane. Then a figure slowly walked out of the center of the storm. As the figure appeared, the terrifying pressure belonging to Dou Zun level also came quietly.

The terrifying aura and coercion directly silenced the world, as if Heaven and Earth Energy were stagnant with the appearance of the figure.

As the cyan storm slowly dissipated, a person wearing Man in Green came into Yao Yan's field of vision. The person's eyes were calm, but filled with a sense of self-reliance. Almost the moment the opponent appeared, that tyrannical energy locked onto Yao Yan and the others.

"Brush~"

In a blink of an eye, this Wind Venerable of the Starfall Pavilion appeared beside You Yun. He flicked his long sleeves and threw them behind him. He looked at the situation and frowned. He glanced at You Yun and asked, "What's going on?!"

He didn't recognize the Yao Yan group not far away, and the one Dou Zun level expert among them was even more unfamiliar. Obviously, he didn't walk around Central Plains very much.

How could such a person suddenly break into the Starfall Pavilion, and even force You Yun to open Space Teleportation Jade Token, which can only be used when the disaster of destroying the pavilion occurs.

He dropped everything he was doing and rushed back. What he saw was such a 'harmonious' scene. Even with his temper, he couldn't help but feel a little annoyed.

"Pavilion Master, they suddenly came to the door and said there was news about Venerable Yao." You Yun bowed his hand and explained quickly.

"?!" Almost at the moment You Yun's words fell, Wind Venerable's expression froze for an instant, and then he stared at Yao Yan's group and asked in a deep voice, "Do you really have any news about my best friend Venerable Yao? This matter is not a joke!"

As he spoke, his tone became a little heavier, and the aura around him could hardly be suppressed, which showed how deep his emotions were at this moment.

At his level of cultivation, there are very few things that can cause him to have emotional fluctuations, and the incident of Venerable Yao is undoubtedly one of them. Even over the years, he has spent a lot of effort to track down this incident, but unfortunately he still has no clues.

As for Venerable Yao's apprentice Han Feng, he also questioned him back then. Unfortunately, the explanation given by the other party was extremely ridiculous and was obviously a lie. However, since there was no evidence, he could not really do anything to Yao Chen's apprentice who regarded him as his own. He could only watch the other party go away.

Now, someone actually brought the news of Yao Chen, how could he not be excited.

"Old guy, stop hiding. I feel that the other party is in a hurry. If you keep hiding, the other party may not be able to help but fight with us." Yao Yan looked at Wind Venerable with a serious and dignified expression, couldn't help but chuckle, and immediately threw Bone Flame Ring away from Wind Venerable.

What does it mean?!

Wind Venerable couldn't help but have some expectations in his heart, and at the same time he locked on the thrown ring.

"Stinky Kid, what's the hurry!"

Along with a slightly embarrassing words, Venerable Yao's old Soul Body also floated out from Storage Ring. His expression was slightly embarrassed. He looked at Wind Venerable, whom he hadn't seen for many years, and sighed, "Hey, I didn't expect to see you again."

"Brush!"

Wind Venerable moved and instantly appeared beside Yao Lao. Looking at the familiar yet somewhat unfamiliar Soul Body, his lips trembled a few times, and finally turned into a somewhat excited voice. "Old guy, you are still alive!"

"I almost died." Yao Lao thought of those things in the past and couldn't help but shook his head and let out a sigh.

You Yun couldn't help but be shocked when he saw this scene. Venerable Yao, who was famous throughout Central Plains in the past, was not dead. Although he is Soul Body now, with his alchemy skills and connections, it is not difficult to restore his physical body. Thinking of this, a hint of joy appeared in his eyes.

Starfall Pavilion was jointly created by Yao Lao and Wind Venerable. Although Yao Lao doesn't do anything, with the other party's identity and strength, he can attract countless strong people and geniuses to join him just by sitting in charge.

It is foreseeable that the future of the Starfall Pavilion will become even better!

"What exactly happened back then? That means Han Feng suffered the backlash from alchemy..." Wind Venerable asked impatiently. He urgently needed to know what happened to Yao Lao and who the enemy was. He actually killed the opponent's body.

You can think of how Yao Chen has survived these years.

"There's no rush, let's go back first. I'm informing you like this just in case. I was also worried that Starfall Pavilion might have changed over the years. Fortunately, nothing happened." Yao Lao smiled, shook his head, and said slowly.

Wind Venerable nodded, then looked at Yao Yan and others, and asked, "Who are these?"

"That kid is a descendant of my clan, his name is Yao Yan. Like me, he was kicked out. I was lucky enough to meet him. As for the other one, Yao TianHuo, Five-Star Dou Zun, and so on. He was a strong man from ancient times. He lost his body accidentally and is now one of our own. As for the little girl, that boy recognized his sister. Her real body is Void Ancient Dragon Clan." Yao Lao introduced Wind Venerable.

"..." Wind Venerable was silenced by Yao Lao's few words.

He thought that this old friend must have had a hard life these years, but he didn't expect to make such a big noise when he came back. The descendant of that clan... isn't that Emperor Clan?

Dou Zun in ancient times was still a five-star, and his strength was above him.

That little girl is even more extraordinary.

Void Ancient Dragon Clan, it's a bit scary to think about it. That clan has disappeared for a long time. Even Monster Beast World has not had much news, but now it appears in front of him quietly, together with Yao Lao, the former Central Plains Number One Alchemist.

This combination is quite scary.

"Thank you!" Wind Venerable took a deep breath, clasped his fists at Yao Yan and others, and said in a deep voice.

No matter what, the other party was able to send Yao Lao back intact. He will naturally remember this kindness in his heart. For him, Yao Lao is by no means as simple as an ordinary friend. If the other party hadn't saved him again and again, he would have died long ago. How could he have the strength and glory he has today.

"Wind Venerable is so polite. Yao Lao and I help each other, there is no need for this." Yao Yan returned the favor and said softly.

"Stop talking about these things. We are all our own people. Let's go back to the Starfall Pavilion first. By the way, tell me about Danta. What changes have occurred in Central Plains in recent years?" Yao Lao said with a smile while stroking his white beard.

Wind Venerable nodded, and immediately led everyone towards the Starfall Pavilion, while telling everyone about Central Plains.

"After your accident that year, it caused quite a stir. Xuan Yi, one of the Pill Tower Three Giantss, personally came forward to investigate the matter. Unfortunately, Han Feng refused to acknowledge it, and we had no choice. But no matter what, we can't torture him... What happened that year, was Han Feng also involved?" Wind Venerable said, frowning, and asked.

A complex look flashed in Yao Lao's eyes, and he said slowly, "Back then, that traitor joined forces with Mu Gu to stab me in the back, which ultimately turned me into what I am now~"

"Han Feng?! I knew this kid had evil intentions back then, but I didn't expect that even you..."

Wind Venerable A look of anger instantly appeared on his face, he clenched his fists and said coldly.

"I already dealt with this matter when I passed by Black-Corner Region. He has returned everything I gave him back then, so there is no need to say anything more to him. In the final analysis, it was also caused by my unclear understanding of people. If I had listened to you back then, perhaps these things would not have happened in the future." Yao Lao said slowly.

When Wind Venerable heard this, the anger on his face subsided slightly, and then he changed the topic to Mu Gu: "Mu Gu, he has been very close to the Soul Hall over the years."

"It was obvious back then." Yao Lao was not surprised by this.

At this moment, Yao Yan suddenly interrupted, "Then what is the relationship between Xuan Yi and Yao Lao?"

"?!" Wind Venerable didn't expect Yao Yan that a junior would suddenly speak, and was stunned for a moment. Then he Sizing Up took a closer look at Yao Yan, and suddenly realized that the talent of the kid in front of him seemed not weak, and he had reached the level of Dou Zong at a young age.

"Don't get involved in the elders' affairs blindly." Yao Lao scolded with a serious look on his face.

"Pill Tower Three Giants... I didn't expect you to still have such a relationship, why don't you help me~" Yao Yan didn't care at all about Yao Lao's reprimand and said with a smile.

"Stinky Kid~"

Yao Lao cursed angrily, his kindness beyond words.

It seems that the relationship between the two is very good~

Seeing this scene, Wind Venerable's tone also became better, and he joined in the teasing with a smile, "He has a good relationship with Xuan Yi. If this old guy hadn't been obsessed with alchemy back then, he would probably have grandchildren now."

Yao Lao was also a romantic boy when he was young. He was extremely talented and had a charming appearance, which attracted the favor of many women of the same age.

Unfortunately, Yao Lao is far less direct and decisive than Yao Yan in this regard.

"Don't mention these things." Yao Lao waved his hand and said angrily.

Seeing this scene, Wind Venerable also burst out laughing. He hadn't felt so comfortable for a long time. Then he seemed to think of something and looked at You Yun beside him, and ordered, "Go to the Sky Luan Clan, bring Mu Qingluan back, and explain it to Clan Leader of the Sky Luan Clan."

He had just received the news and hurried back. He didn't even have time to explain anything to the Sky Luan Clan, and even the disciple he had just accepted was left there.

"Mu Qingluan?" Yao Lao looked at Wind Venerable curiously.

"The disciple I recruited some time ago is Sky Luan Clan. I plan to train her well and let her try to win the next Four Directions Pavilion Tournament... She has lost several times and has been suppressed by the Wind Lightning Pavilion. It is said that in this generation, Wind Lightning Pavilion has even caught up with the Heavenly Demon Phoenix Clan."

Speaking of this, Wind Venerable couldn't help but glance at Zi Yan. He suddenly remembered that the identity of the little girl in front of him was Ancient Void Dragon.

Ancient Void Dragon and Heavenly Demon Phoenix have always been hostile. It is rumored that the former is feeding on Ancient Era, and Void Ancient Dragon Clan is even feeding on Heavenly Demon Phoenix.

If this little girl can be drawn into the Starfall Pavilion, then the next Four Directions Pavilion Tournament will be interesting.

"I can ask you to come forward in person. It seems that Four Directions Pavilion Tournament and Starfall Pavilion lost miserably this time~" Yao Lao joked with a smile.

"I have been tracking your whereabouts for these years, but I have not paid much attention to the development of the Starfall Pavilion. Now that you are back, it is time for you to shoulder this burden." Wind Venerable waved his hand and hummed softly.

"After I regain my physical body."

Yao Lao did not refuse, he pondered for a while and said slowly.

Wind Venerable looked at Yao Lao, whose temper had changed a lot, and was slightly startled. Then he looked at Heavenly Fire Venerable on one side and said, "How did this person regain his physical body?"

Heavenly Fire Venerable pointed at Yao Yan.

Wind Venerable immediately looked at Yao Yan and couldn't help but said, "What level of alchemist are you?"

He almost forgot that people of that clan were almost born to be alchemists.

"It's Seventh-grade Peak at the moment. Eighth-Tier hasn't tried it, so I feel like I should give it a try." Yao Yan thought about it seriously and gave the answer. With his current level of medicine refining, Eighth-Tier can really give it a try.

"How old is this kid?" Wind Venerable looked at Yao Lao and asked.

"Almost twenty." Yao Lao thought for a while and said roughly.

"It's more terrifying than your talent back then~" Wind Venerable couldn't help but comment, and then seemed to think of something, and continued, "But among this generation of Pill Tower Five Great Families, there seem to be several genius monsters. The most terrifying one is a girl who is only ten years old and can already refine Third-Rank Pill."

"What's your name?" Yao Lao became interested.

"Cao Ying."

"Tsk, that's a good name. Boy, are you interested in getting her? She seems to be about the same age as you. In a few years, it seems to be quite suitable~" Yao Lao was obviously not a serious old man, so he started to make arrangements.

"You might as well think about how to take down Xuan Yi, one of the Pill Tower Three Giantss. In this way, I, a junior, can follow you and enjoy the hot food." Yao Yan retorted directly.

He has no interest in the ten-year-old girl. He only loves the royal sister and the young woman.

"Why don't you two work hard together?"

Wind Venerable added with a smile, causing Yao Lao on one side to roll his eyes.

There was a pause.

Yao Lao was just a little more serious, and asked in a serious voice, "Is Tianshan Blood Pool turned on?"

"It has just been two years since it started, and there is still one year left until the next time." Wind Venerable was stunned, then glanced at Yao Yan, understood what Yao Lao meant, and said softly.

"There's still one year... it shouldn't be much different." Yao Lao frowned slightly, then shook his head and said, "There's no need to wait for a year. You go with him tomorrow and say that I owe Gold Devouring Rat Clan a favor and let them Clan Leader open the bottom blood pool."

"Okay." Wind Venerable responded directly. As for whether Yao Yan could withstand the blood pool at the bottom, he believed Yao Lao knew it. After all, Yao Lao was no stranger to that place.

"Zi Yan come with me then, that place should be effective for her too." Yao Yan reached out and touched Zi Yan's head and chuckled.

"It's best not to. Zi Yan's body is special, and Gold Devouring Rat Clan has the best information. If they find out that Zi Yan's body is Void Ancient Dragon Clan, they will definitely tell Heavenly Demon Phoenix Clan the news, which will definitely cause some unnecessary trouble." Yao Lao reminded in a deep voice.

"... can you sense anything?" Yao Yan looked at Zi Yan and asked.

Zi Yan shook her head, biting her lips, seeming a little disappointed. At the same time, she secretly remembered the three words Heavenly Demon Phoenix. She had never provoked the other party, but she felt like the other party always wanted to eat her.

"There's no rush~" Yao Yan soothed softly, and then slowly said, "Then let's ask around first and then talk."
