As evening approached, Yao Yan waited until Cai Lin and Cai Die returned hand in hand, along with a chubby. Second Order Greenwood Fox, she was lying in Cai Die's arms, lazily curled up, with a pair of big fluffy ears drooping, as if she would never wake up, until she sensed something, the pair of big ears suddenly stood up.

A pair of green eyes opened, and he soon saw a familiar figure, who immediately screamed '', and waved a pair of tender pink claws, obviously recognizing Yao Yan, the 'original owner'!

As Cai Die opened his arms, the immature White-Eyed Fox rushed towards Yao Yan, as fast as a bolt of lightning.

When Yao Yan saw this scene, a touch of tenderness flashed in his eyes, and he stretched out his hand to catch the flying Ling'er, letting it climb along his arm and onto his shoulder. Then he felt the friction of the fur next to his cheek, and looked at him with bright green eyes, and made a crisp '' sound.

Just like back then.

The past ten years have not erased Ling Er's memory of Yao Yan. After all, for Ling Er, ten years is just a short moment. In her long life, Yao Yan is undoubtedly the most special human being and cannot be forgotten at all.

"Glutty~" Yao Yan skillfully took out a bottle of elixir essence from Storage Ring and handed it over, then looked at the two sisters.

Time has not added any traces to the faces of the two sisters. They are still so beautiful and enchanting, and their beauty is enough to make everything in the house lose their color.

Cai Lin put one hand on her small waist and looked at Yao Yan with a scrutinizing gaze. Her cold eyes were full of aggression. She looked like a queen, and when paired with bright red high heels, it added a bit of arrogance. It seemed that she had not missed Yao Yan at all in the past ten years.

And it seems that a woman like her should not have a man!

Compared to her sister, Cai Die's eyes looked much normal. She covered her lips with her slender jade fingers and looked at him with tears in her eyes. There was longing and affection in her eyes. If she hadn't been restrained at this moment, she might have pounced on him.

Same appearance, but completely different temperament and reactions.

"Um... I'm back." Yao Yan smiled awkwardly before breaking the silence and saying softly.

"So you are still alive. I thought you died in some corner." Cai Lin sneered, his narrow eyes full of resentment, and he glanced at Yao Yan viciously, as if he wanted to give Yao Yan a bite.

"Sister~" Cai Die looked at Cai Lin who choked Yao Yan as soon as he came back, with a little pleading in his gentle peach blossom eyes.

Cai Lin looked at his sister's eyes, suppressed the anger in his heart, frowned slightly, and said stiffly, "Okay, he just came back today, I won't say anything else... you guys can talk, I'll go see the great elder and the others."

After saying that, she disappeared directly from the spot, as if she didn't want to get involved.

Four-Star Dou Zun Peak...Yao Yan saw the strength of Cai Lin. Compared with the strength of Cai Lin, Cai Die is much weaker. Only In the early stage of the two-star Dou Zun, it seemed that she had just broken through, but her behavior at the moment was completely unlike a Dou Zun Expert. She approached him cautiously, as if she was afraid that if she approached too fast, the person in front of her would disappear.

"Don't look, it's really me, I'm back." Yao Yan reached out and pinched this silly girl's face, and said softly.

"Woo~" Cai Die seemed to be unable to bear it anymore, and threw himself into Yao Yan's arms, hugging Yao Yan tightly with his arms, with tears in his eyes and a little crying, "Sir, I really miss you! I dreamed that you were back several times, but when I woke up from the dream, you disappeared..."

"This time it's true!" Yao Yan hugged Cai Die, looking apologetic.

Cai Die did not speak, but hugged Yao Yan hard, feeling the reality and warmth. As time passed, his emotions slowly calmed down. He blinked his clear peach blossom eyes, pear blossoms with rain, looking at Yao Yan, holding his clothes tightly. "Wherever the young master goes from now on, I will go!"

Only when it is lost can one realize how precious it is... Ten years is too long for her, and she is afraid that Yao Yan will leave without saying goodbye again.

Yao Yan raised his hand and gently wiped the tears from the corner of her eyes, lowered his head and put it against her forehead, and said softly, "I will take you with me when I come back this time."

Cai Die's eyes flickered, but the next moment, she hesitated again. If she left with the young master, what would her sister do? As for taking her sister with her... She knew how much effort her sister had spent to bring down the current situation, so how could she abandon such a big deal.

"Of course your sister will come with us. As for the Northwest Continent, I have my own arrangements." Yao Yan saw Cai Die's little thoughts and said with a smile.

Northwest Continent cannot be unified at all. Even if they are unified now, there will still be chaos in the future, because Soul Clan needs blood sacrifice creatures, and the larger the number, the better. If necessary, the entire Central Plains will not hesitate to blood sacrifice.

The most important thing is that Soul Clan has already done this and has reached the final finishing stage.

Even if Yao Yan is Young Clan Leader of the Soul Clan, it can't change the situation at all. Even he doesn't want to change the situation because he wants to refine it into the final Emperor Grade Pill, blood sacrifice is indispensable. As for refining Emperor Pill by one's own strength... Why do you think Tou She Ancient God left one Emperor Pill Embryo?

Tou She Ancient God Don't have the ability to completely refine the elixir?

In the final analysis, Dou Qi Continent has been sealed for too long and has lost its connection with Great Thousand World. The resources and origins contained in it have begun to decline after so many years of consumption. Heaven and Earth Energy alone is not enough to breed a real Emperor Grade Pill.

This is a sealed world!

Only by stepping into Dou Di are you qualified to peek into the scenery of Great Thousand World... and only those who are qualified.

Cai Die Hearing this, a beautiful smile appeared on his face, and he responded, "Listen to the young master!"

"What if your sister doesn't want to do it?" Yao Yan said pretending to be worried.

"I'll help you deal with your sister!"

In a hidden corner outside the hall, an enchanting figure trembled slightly, then bit her lip, with a slight coldness in her eyes. She was not Cai Die, how could she be deceived by Yao Yan with just a few words, and she would not leave with Yao Yan if Yao Yan did not give a reasonable explanation.

"Your Majesty Queen likes eavesdropping so much?" A familiar voice sounded in Cai Lin's ears, and immediately the surrounding space rippled, and Yao Yan's face appeared in front of Cai Lin's eyes, followed by his entire body, which looked exactly like the one in the house.

"?!" Cai Lin's cold eyes widened slightly, a little surprised, and then it was cold to the bone, and his voice was slightly condensed. "Who are you?!"

She actually felt the aura of the person in front of her!

"I am the aggregation of Soul Power. When Soul Power steps into the heaven, I will be no different from ordinary people~" Yao Yan explained with a smile. In the realm of his soul, it is not difficult to do two things at once. His body accompanies Cai Die, and a ray of Soul Power accompanies Cai Lin.

"... What strength do you have now!" Cai Lin frowned slightly, was silent for a moment, and asked a more critical question.

"We are about to enter Dou Sheng." Yao Yan looked at Cai Lin and said slowly.

Cai Lin was silenced by one sentence. She didn't know what to say for a moment. She thought her progress in the past ten years was exaggerated enough, but compared with Yao Yan's progress, it seemed like nothing.

"How are you? Are you afraid?" Yao Yan approached and said with a smile.

"Sooner or later, I will catch up with you!" Cai Lin said in a deep voice with a hard mouth, staring at Yao Yan with his cold eyes.

Yao Yan smiled, his eyes softened, and he did not continue to tease Cai Lin. He just stood beside her and said softly, "I have worked hard for you over the years, and I never thought that the original Heavenly Court would bring you such a big trouble."

The other party could have ignored these things, but just because it was created by itself, it has been maintained until now.

Cai Lin's lips moved, but in the end she said nothing. Her eyes glanced to one side, and the coldness in them gradually subsided. It seemed that countless complaints were resolved in this sentence. After a while, she finally said, "How have you been these past years?"

"It's not bad, Young Clan Leader is now part of the family... it can be considered powerful~" Yao Yan looked at the gorgeous sunset in the distance and said lightly.

Young Clan Leader...

Cai Lin naturally understands how much bloodshed is contained in this sentence. Back then, Yao Yan told her that he had been expelled by the family. Now, in just ten years, he not only has the strength close to Dou Sheng, but has also become the Young Clan Leader of the family!

"Do you want to go back with me and be my wife Young Clan Leader?" Yao Yan looked at Cai Lin with a smile and teased.

"I'm not interested." Cai Lin refused without thinking. She didn't want to compete with Cai Die. In her opinion, that position should belong to her sister. She and Yao Yan had just a misunderstanding.

"That's really a pity." Yao Yan said helplessly, but he breathed a sigh of relief in his heart. If Cai Lin agreed, he would have nothing to say.

"You... things within the clan have stabilized?" Cai Lin pondered for a while and continued to ask.

"It's a long story. Now I have changed my name to Soul Yan. I have taken my father's surname and returned to my father's family. You may be unfamiliar with this family, but you should have heard of another name... Soul Hall."

Yao Yan thought about it for a while, but still told the story about the Soul Clan. After all, the other party will come into contact with these things sooner or later.

"Soul Hall?!" Cai Lin was really shocked this time. A flash of surprise flashed in his cold eyes, staring blankly at Yao Yan. She didn't expect that her man could be related to the Soul Hall. Didn't he have a grudge against Yao Lao?

Countless question marks appeared in Cai Lin's mind, and she didn't know what was true and what was false for a while.

Yao Yan became Soul Yan.

Soul Hall turns from enemy to ally?!

"Soul Hall is a group of executioners kept outside by the Soul Clan, who specialize in doing dirty work." Yao Yan nodded slightly and explained softly. Although he somewhat despised Soul Hall's corporate culture and efficiency, his professional ethics is still worthy of praise!

"I am not interested in this... you have changed your name to Soul Yan now?" Cai Lin frowned and stared at Yao Yan, and said.

"You can also call me Yao Yan." Yao Yan responded flexibly.

"I remember that Soul Hall is the enemy of Mr. Yao Lao. You and him..." Cai Lin stared at Yao Yan in confusion. She felt that Yao Yan had changed, but he was still the same person, but he was completely different from the boy who first met at Tagor Desert!

"I went to the Starfall Pavilion with him, met his old friends, and then followed him to Danta to help him resurrect... After that, in order to seek Danta's Three Thousand Burning Flame, I completely broke up with him. Next time we meet, we may be enemies." Yao Yan was silent for a while, without any bitterness or hatred, and said very calmly.

"..." Cai Lin looked at the person in front of him and finally discovered what had changed in Yao Yan. His heart became colder and more closed.

Perhaps joining Soul Clan was not what he wanted to do.

Thinking of the young man who continued to practice hard for strength, and then looking at the young man in front of him who had reached Dou Sheng, but seemed unhappy, Cai Lin had a touch of tenderness in his eyes, and said softly, "Cai Die and I will stand by your side, no matter who your enemy is!"

"If one day I do something ridiculous, such as becoming an enemy of the entire Central Plains, will you still stand by me?" Yao Yan said softly with a slight smile.

Without any hesitation, Cai Lin's answer remained firm, "Yes!"

"You and Cai Die are indeed a pair of siblings, both of whom are quite stupid... In fact, sometimes it is better for people to live selfishly." Yao Yan was not surprised by this answer. He looked at the disappearing sunset and seemed to see Final Battle, and whispered.

"Aren't you stupid? You know you can't do something but you do it... With that little strength back then, you dared to provoke Green Lotus Core Flame." Cai Lin retorted with displeasure flashing in his eyes.

I was not weak back then~

Yao Yan complained in his heart, but now that he thinks about it, those years should have been his happiest years. Now that his strength has improved, the sense of urgency in his heart has not been eliminated. On the contrary, it has become stronger, and it seems that he can feel the butcher knife that will fall at any time!

He pondered for a moment and said slowly, "You should have heard what I just said to Cai Die. I will help you stabilize the situation of the Northwest Continent. After that, you and Cai Die can follow me back to the Soul Clan... I will find a way for you to break through to Dou Sheng as soon as possible!"

He clearly remembered several places of opportunity for Central Plains, which allowed Cai Lin to advance quickly. Cai Die's Ancient Sky Serpent was a bit troublesome. Original Work only had one mutated Ancient Sky Serpent, but Soul Clan's background could make up for it.

If it doesn't work, Yin Yang Unification Record start practicing!

The worst thing he can do is work harder.

"... With your current strength, is Heavenly Flames still of use to you?" Cai Lin's red lips parted slightly, and her soft and charming voice had a hint of the coldness of a royal sister.

"Of course there is!" Yao Yan nodded, with a little tenderness in his eyes. He did not expect that Cai Die would look for Heavenly Flames for him. For this purpose, he almost searched the entire Northwest Continent, involving all dangerous places. He really didn't know how to repay this deep affection.
