Xiao Ning inserted one hand into Xiao Yan's heart. The black and red Devour Dou Qi extracted everything in Xiao Yan's body, turning it into nutrients and nourishing it. The growth of the body, Dou Qi, which had just broken through not long ago, began to increase rapidly again, and the Dou Qi Vortex in the body increased rapidly, moving towards Dou Shi at an exaggerated speed.

"Xiao Yan, don't blame me, I can only blame you for coming to the back mountain and seeing all this... you forced it all!" He murmured to himself while extracting Xiao Yan's Dou Qi and vitality, as if he was looking for an excuse for himself. He needed this excuse to suppress the panic in his heart.

The first time he killed someone, it was Xiao Yan. Naturally, he felt fear in his heart, and even couldn't bear it... But for his own future, he had to do this.

The teacher is right. If Xiao Yan tells all this, what should he do?

He can't leave his future to Xiao Yan, betting that Xiao Yan can keep the secret!

Because once he loses the bet, he will lose everything.

If outsiders knew about this kind of skill, would they be tempted, or even Xiao Yan himself, would he be tempted, would he snatch it away in the future...

As the amount of Dou Qi in the body increased, the black-red light in Xiao Ning's eyes became more intense, drowning out the last trace of unbearable. At the same time, the speed of devouring also began to accelerate with the increase in strength. Xiao Yan's originally strong body began to wither, the look in his eyes began to dim, and life entered the final countdown.

At this moment, Xiao Yan could clearly feel the Dou Qi in his body flowing into Xiao Ning's body. As Dou Qi Vortex disintegrated, unspeakable pain tortured his whole body. The pain of having everything extracted forcibly made him almost crazy. However, he could do nothing at this moment. He could only watch Xiao Ning swallowing him up and watch himself step by step towards death.

Despair, unwillingness, doubt, anger... all came to my mind.

Xiao Yan I don't understand why Xiao Ning became like this. Where did he get the magic power to devour others Dou Qi, and even attack him? Does he really have no humanity at all?!

I am his old cousin!

They are his beloved relatives and friends!

"I can't die. If I die, he will definitely attack his father and the others in the future! He has gone crazy!" Xiao Yan was filled with strong unwillingness and began to resist with all his strength, trying to resist the devouring of Xiao Ning. However, with the support of Son of Heaven Fire, his resistance was in vain and he could not shake Xiao Ning at all.

In less than half an hour, Xiao Yan's body turned into a mummy. The look in his eyes had dissipated and became dim. Everything in his body was swallowed up by Xiao Ning, and there was no longer any life left.

"Huh~" Xiao Ning slowly took out his palm and breathed a long sigh of relief. The Dou Qi rushing in his body became dozens of times stronger. Feeling the surge of power in his body, for Xiao Yan's slight guilt disappeared instantly, and he laughed in a low voice, "Is this Dou Shi? It is indeed much better than Dou Zhe, Jie Jie Jie!"

As the Dou Qi in his body rotates at high speed, a layer of black and red Dou Qi gauze appears on the surface of his body, making his temperament even more weird and sinister, unlike ordinary people.

"Who dares to look down on me now?!" Xiao Ning sneered in his heart. At this moment, he couldn't feel the limits of his body at all. If there were enough qualifications for him to devour, he would even be sure to step into the Dou Wang or even Dou Emperor level in one day!

It's a pity that strong men of that level are not something he can provoke at the moment.

But one day.

They also have to sink and tremble under their own feet.

"It's time to go~" an old voice emerged in Xiao Ning's mind.

Xiao Ning nodded, his breath converged, and then he looked at Xiao Yan who had turned into a mummy at his feet. He frowned slightly, without touching anything on his body. He bent down and picked him up with one hand, walked to the edge of the cliff not far away, and threw him down directly.

He looked at the falling mummy with cold eyes, until the mummy disappeared into the abyss, then he turned and left.

Quiet mountain road.

Xiao Ning's face looked uncertain under the shade of the tree. He sent a message in his mind. "Teacher, how much strength do you still have?"

"There's not much left. It's okay to deal with Dou Shi. If you go up higher, you'll have to fight tooth and nail... Don't expect your teacher to help you hunt strong ones. If you want to become stronger, you have to rely on yourself. The most my teacher can do is help you when your life is in danger. But if you regard this as dependence, you are destined to not go far!" The old voice carried a hint of warning and reminder.

"Teacher, help me again...Wutan City has a lot of Dou Shi. Even if I only swallow a part, my strength should be able to reach Da Dou Shi!" Xiao Ning said greedily.

Once Pandora's Box is opened, it obviously cannot be closed again.

After experiencing the thrill of rapid advancement, he no longer had the intention to practice on his own. Devouring Heaven Demon Skill was not suitable for slow practice at all. It had only one path to practice, and that was to continuously devour the strong!

"You finally figured it out! But I advise you not to act in Wutan City. Too many people disappear, which will inevitably cause unnecessary trouble... Change a place!" Son of Heaven Fire did not forget Yao Yan's advice and said.

After all, Xiao Family was being watched by the Gu Clan, and the noise was too loud, so it was obviously not suitable.

"... Okay!" Xiao Ning pondered for a while before responding in a low voice.

Yao Yan only found out the news that Xiao Ning had killed Xiao Yan the next day. He didn't pay much attention to Xiao Ning. He just told Son of Heaven Fire a few words and let him do what he did. He didn't expect it to be so capable. It only took a few days for it to bring him a 'big surprise'.

Sure enough, people learn bad things quickly. In just a few days, Xiao Ning dared to kill his old cousin. It was so cruel.

"Is the young master interested in that boy named Xiao Yan?" Son of Heaven Fire noticed Yao Yan's emotional changes, and the black flames around his body trembled, and asked tentatively.

"Was the body destroyed?" Yao Yan hesitated for a while and asked.

"Thrown from the edge of the cliff behind the Xiao Family... Does the little master think he can still survive?" Son of Heaven Fire laughed strangely, obviously thinking that such a thing did not exist at all. It lent some power to Xiao Ning and watched him suck Xiao Yan into a mummy. If he can still survive, then he is a ghost.

Will he die?

Yao Yan is very curious. He knows that "Child of Destiny" like Xiao Yan is very difficult to die. According to the routines of some novels, they can always turn disaster into good fortune. Even if they are broken and ashes, they may crawl out of hell, because this world has chosen them.

He had not touched Xiao Yan before, but also wanted to see if Xiao Yan could take a different path from Original Work.

I didn't expect him to 'die' so quickly!

"I'm going out and I'll be back soon." Yao Yan looked at Yun Yun in front of him and said softly.

Yun Yun heard this and nodded slightly without asking anything.

Yao Yan's figure disappeared into Secluded Cottage in the Woods. When he reappeared, his figure had appeared on the cliff edge of the back mountain of the Xiao Family. Looking at the abyss below, Soul Power submerged directly into it and started searching.

Soon, he discovered Xiao Yan's Corpse, an already mutilated mummy on a leafy tree trunk.

Take one step forward.

Yao Yan appeared next to Xiao Yan's Corpse, looking at the dead Xiao Yan, speechless. He did not expect that Xiao Yan died so easily, without causing any commotion. If he had not asked today, he would not even have known that Xiao Ning had devoured Xiao Yan.

Destiny is unpredictable, and with just a slight fluctuation, life will take a different path.

Since Yao Yan took away Yao Lao and Flame Mantra from the Xiao Family, Xiao Yan is no longer the protagonist of this world... To be more precise, since the appearance of Yao Yan, the fate of everyone in the world has changed, not just Xiao Yan.

"Little master? Do you care about him very much?" Son of Heaven Fire appeared from Yao Yan's side. The grimace transformed by black inflammation was a little uneasy, and it asked. It felt that it might have done something wrong. Yao Yan had indeed told it before, not to touch Xiao Family's people easily.

It's just that Xiao Yan suddenly ran out yesterday, so it could only let Xiao Ning take action. After all, the skills practiced by Xiao Ning cannot be seen in the light.

That's all... Yao Yan sighed softly in his heart, calmed down, and told Son of Heaven Fire: "Arrange Xiao Ning to leave Xiao Family as soon as possible. This place cannot withstand the trouble... Let him go to Black-Corner Region, and then we can cultivate more seeds in Black-Corner Region."

There are no good people in Black-Corner Region, so he is very suitable for cultivating the seeds of Devouring Heaven Demon Skill.

"Okay~" Son of Heaven Fire heard this and responded with a smile, and immediately disappeared in front of Yao Yan. It is now becoming more and more interested in this training game. Compared with killing people, playing with people's hearts is obviously more interesting.

Yao Yan raised his hand to call out Fusion Exotic Flame, lit the corpse on fire, and looked at the corpse that gradually dissipated, feeling some inexplicable thoughts in his heart.

Maybe there is no so-called Child of Destiny in the world, there are only winners and losers.

But isn't that the way the world is?

Witnessing the corpse being burned in the flames, Yao Yan disappeared from the spot.

Bamboo Forest Abode.

Yun Yun looked at Yao Yan who suddenly returned, revealed Different Color, and asked, "Has it been dealt with?"

Yao Yan handled things too fast. She hadn't even finished processing the things on the table. When the other party came back, she didn't even have time to make a cup of tea.

"It's nothing. It's just that something unexpected happened suddenly. Someone I knew died. I went to see him off." Yao Yan explained softly, paused, and continued, "You should also know that person...Xiao Yan."

"Xiao Yan?" Yun Yun was stunned when he heard this somewhat familiar name. He immediately thought of the Fiancé who Nalan Yanran broke off their engagement a few days ago. His name was Xiao Yan.

"How did he die?" Yun Yun's eyes moved slightly as he asked.

"It also has something to do with me... When I was at the Xiao Family, I taught the skills to a person. That person was successful in practicing the skills. He had some conflicts with Xiao Yan, so he killed him." Yao Yan smiled helplessly. He really didn't want to kill Xiao Yan, but the other person died like this, and his death was extremely sudden.

Yun Yun nodded slightly, but his expression did not change much. For her, it was difficult for her to pay attention to the death of an unrelated person, not to mention that she had never met Xiao Yan, but when she saw Yao Yan looked very concerned about this matter and couldn't help but comfort him, "That has nothing to do with you. You are just passing on people's skills. What kind of path that person will take in the future is not something you can interfere with. You are not his master."

The evil Son of Heaven Fire...Yao Yan was blaming the blame in his heart. It seemed that he could only say sorry to Xiao Yan's Death.

He changed the subject. "Let's not talk about this anymore... I plan to leave tomorrow."

"... Oh." Yun Yun was stunned when he heard this, and immediately felt sour in his heart. He responded in a low voice. At the same time, he couldn't help but clenched his fists, trying to persuade her to stay, but there seemed to be no reason to stay. After a while, she raised her head slightly and pretended to be indifferent. "I'll see you off tomorrow morning."

Looking at the man in front of her, she knew that he did not belong here. He seemed to have always been like this, appearing quietly in her world and leaving quietly, but it disrupted her world and life.

Yao Yan stood up, and under the gaze of Yun Yun, he slowly walked to her side and sat down, reached out to hold her hands between her legs, and said softly, "I will come back."

"Next time you come back, I won't necessarily be with the Misty Cloud Sect~" Yun Yun felt the warmth and reality in her palms. She was silent for a while, then turned away her eyes and hummed softly to express her dissatisfaction. She was not a woman who Yao Yan would come and go as soon as she called.

"If so... I will guard Misty Cloud Sect, I believe you will come back." Yao Yan slightly squeezed Yun Yun's somewhat cold jade hand and said.

"... There is no one like you~" Yun Yun heard this, her dark eyebrows Frowned Slightly, her indifferent eyes filled with helplessness and resentment.

She actually thought about avoiding Yao Yan, but Yao Yan always barged in so arrogantly and unreasonably, never giving her a chance to escape. Just like when he left... He seemed to be very domineering and never asked her if she wanted to.

"If I don't take the initiative, do I expect you to take the initiative? If I hadn't been like that back then, you would have probably forgotten about me now~" Yao Yan reached out and took Yun Yun into his arms, hugging her slender waist, and he could clearly feel the softness and vastness in front of her.

Yun Yun hesitated for a moment and sighed in his heart. After all, he didn't resist, because resisting was useless. Besides, the other party was leaving tomorrow, so it didn't matter if he bullied me again.

Leaning in Yao Yan's arms, she felt a little confused. After a while, she whispered, "When will you come back next time?"

Yao Yan was stunned when he heard this and fell into silence, because he didn't know how to answer the question Yun Yun. The next time he comes back should be after he breaks through Dou Di. If he fails, then this meeting will be the last time.

He was not completely sure of the final result, but at this point, he could not turn back.

So, he didn't make any promises.

When she didn't get an answer, Yun Yun raised her head slightly, and met those hesitant eyes. She did not continue to ask for the answer to the question, and even took the initiative to stretch out her arms and hug Yao Yan's neck, raised her beautiful and clear face, and bumped into Yao Yan's lips somewhat unfamiliarly.

She suddenly didn't want the answer because she already had the answer in her heart at that moment!
