Gu Xun'er has a pretty good temper and is easy to coax. If it were Cai Lin, Yao Yan felt that she would not talk much to him and would only practice silently. Once her strength increases, she would probably cleanse all those coquettish bitches.

Fortunately, Yao Yan doesn't intend to get too entangled with women of various races. With his current bloodline level, it would be too difficult to have a child.

What's more.

Expecting to use children to gain cultivation resources, Yao Yan felt that he was not so despicable, but just as he was walking with Gu Xun'er, Gu Qingyang hurried over and brought some interesting news.

Xiao Family Xiao Ning actually came to the Gu Realm. Not only did he hide his identity and watch the whole process of Ancient Clan Coming-of-Age Ceremony, but now he is Self-Detonation. I hope Gu Clan can let him enter Heavenly Tomb!

Yao Yan is well aware of this news.

Gu Xun'er beside her had a look of surprise when she heard this. She didn't expect that she would hear the word Xiao Family again. She thought that after leaving, there would be no chance to meet again. After all, Xiao Family's strength back then was simply not enough to cultivate a person who would become Heavenly Tomb.

Even Xiao Yan, who she had taken a high look at back then, did not have this ability. Although he was very talented, it was almost impossible to enter Dou Zun or Heavenly Tomb before he was thirty years old.

"What strength is he now?" Gu Xun'er asked softly with his eyes flowing.

"Seven-Star Dou Zun!" Gu Qingyang's expression remained unchanged. He seemed to have not seen the intimacy between Yao Yan and Gu Xun'er. He reported without squinting. As for the relationship between the two in front of him, what is the relationship between them now? Gu Clan No one dares to say anything anymore. Even Clan Leader and all the elders agree on things, and even Great Emperor Clans Clan Leader has witnessed it. The opinions of their younger generation don't matter.

Regarding this matter, Gu Yao has already shut himself down, and will go directly to seclusion. He will never come out of seclusion until he breaks through Dou Sheng.

He was probably very hurt by this incident, but the one he fell in love with was Gu Xun'er. It can only be said that this incident was a tragedy from the beginning.

"It seems that he has had some opportunities in recent years~" Gu Xun'er said the key point. Without special opportunities, how could Xiao Ning reach this point in just a few years with his original talent? Even among Great Emperor Clans, Xiao Ning's cultivation speed is at the monster level.

She pondered for a while and then said, "What did the elders of the clan say?"

"The wishes of the elders are to allow him to enter Heavenly Tomb, because this is the agreement between the Gu Clan and Xiao Xuan. If he can get the Xiao Clan Bloodline left by Xiao Xuan, then that will be It is his personal opportunity, there is no need to stop anything... and the elders think that maybe through Xiao Ning, we can get Emperor Jade of the Xiao Clan!" Gu Qingyang's face gradually became serious and he said in a deep voice.

"Isn't Tou She Ancient God Jade of the Xiao Clan not in the Gu Clan?" Hearing this, Yao Yan asked curiously with a look of surprise on his face.

"Naturally not... Due to the relationship with the Xiao Clan, my father has never touched this piece of Emperor Jade, and does not allow anyone to go and ask for it. However, some time ago, Gu Clan sent someone to search for it, but found Xiao Family's Tou She Ancient God Jade was actually switched. I don't know if it was like this from the beginning or if it was tampered with later!" Gu Xun'er nodded slightly and revealed a secret. Very few people know about this matter so far. Even Hun Tiandi probably doesn't know much about it.

However, her relationship with Yao Yan has been settled, so there is no harm in letting the other party know about it. It is only a matter of time.

"What clues can we find?" Yao Yan asked with a serious look on his face.

"There are no clues at the moment, and Xiao Clan migrated from Central Plains to the Northwest Continent. It has gone through nearly a thousand years, and no one can be sure whether there have been any changes... This time Heavenly Tomb is opened, my father is also planning to ask Xiao Xuan." Gu Xun'er said softly.

"Are you worried that Xiao Xuan has done something wrong?" Yao Yan said.

"With this concern, if Xiao Xuan doesn't have a backup plan, then this matter will become troublesome." Gu Xun'er nodded slightly, her beautiful eyes darkened slightly, and said slowly. She knew very well that once the day comes to open Tou She Ancient God's Cave Mansion, if Gu Clan cannot get Xiao Clan Emperor Jade, it will become very troublesome.

After all, Xiao Family has been under the protection of the Gu Clan all these years, and even a wisp of Soul Imprint from Xiao Xuan is also among Heavenly Tomb. If Gu Clan does not know the whereabouts of Xiao Clan Emperor Jade, no one will believe it.

But that's the reality.

Because of Gu Yuan, Gu Clan has never done anything to this piece of Tou She Ancient God Jade in these years. Even if some elders had this idea, they were suppressed by Gu Yuan.

"... After entering Heavenly Tomb, I will ask Xiao Xuan for clarification." Yao Yan squeezed Gu Xun'er's hand and said softly.

"If you go in, Xiao Xuan may not be willing to see you!" Gu Xun'er looked worried. Back then, Xiao Clan was exterminated by the Soul Clan. If Xiao Xuan did not kill Yao Yan, he was considered to be quite generous.

"It's okay, I'm pretending to be Yao Clan." Yao Yan said calmly.

Gu Xun'er was stunned for a moment when he heard this, then covered his mouth and chuckled, "You are such a liar~"

However, with Yao Yan's unique bloodline, it may not be impossible to deceive Xiao Xuan, provided that people of all races have not seen Xiao Xuan.

"It's not just for you." Yao Yan hooked Gu Xun'er's palm and said with a smile.

Gu Xun'er rolled his eyes at Yao Yan in anger, then looked at Gu Qingyang pretending to be calm, and said softly, "Then let's arrange it this way, let Xiao Ning enter Heavenly Tomb. As for whether he can get the inheritance of Xiao Xuan, it depends on him."

"Okay, I'll go and tell the elders right now!" Gu Qingyang seemed to have seen nothing, and responded with a hand, then turned into a stream of light and flew away.

Wait for him to leave.

Gu Xun'er looked at Yao Yan and said, "Let's go back too, it's only been a few days since Heavenly Tomb was opened."

Yao Yan nodded slightly, with a look of expectation in his eyes. He didn't know what kind of person Xiao Xuan was, who could hold Hun Tiandi's head down back then. Original Work only described him in a few paragraphs, so it was difficult to really judge.

Just like Hun Tiandi... he is more scheming than Original Work described!

So far, Yao Yan has not revealed anything about Emperor Pill Embryo. It's because he doesn't trust him... or it's not time yet!

Accompanied by Gu Xun'er, two days of leisure time flew by in a blink of an eye.

And this day is also the day when Heavenly Tomb is launched.

The location of Heavenly Tomb is deep in the Gu Saint Mountain Range. That area belongs to the forbidden area of the Gu Clan. It is guarded by the Black Annihilation Army on weekdays. Even Gu Clan disciples cannot enter during normal times. It will only be open to the public when Heavenly Tomb is opened.

When Yao Yan and Gu Xun'er arrived, all the children from all ethnic groups had already arrived, including Xiao Ning. He stood alone with a cold expression on his face. It was not until he saw Yao Yan that his expression changed slightly, but he did not say hello. He seemed to be aware of the gap between him and the two of them.

The innocence of youth will eventually be knocked down by reality. Having lost his master, he can only rely on himself now. He always remembers his master's words and be careful in everything!

"The skills Xiao Ning practices are somewhat special..." Gu Xun'er glanced at Xiao Ning, and with her strength, she could see through in an instant. Everything in Xiao Ning's body, including the Devouring Heaven Demon Skill he practiced, the unique technique transformed his physique into something extremely special. It was like mixing various paints together, but the final color was never born, making it look a bit colorful.

"His body can't bear the skills he practiced... If he can't survive it, Dou Sheng can't save his life, let alone Dou Sheng." Yao Yan said slowly.

Devouring Heaven Demon Skill was created by him. He naturally knew the shortcomings of this technique. He brought Xiao Ning an unparalleled cultivation speed. Even his body and Soul Power grew exponentially due to devouring others. However, if the power exceeded his own control, there would undoubtedly be a backlash from the power, especially since these powers were not cultivated by himself.

If Yao Yan had not suppressed Marrow Cleansing with Dou Sheng Essence Blood in Ancient Ruins, it would still be a question of whether Xiao Ning could stay awake, let alone break through Seven-Star Dou Zun.

But now we have reached our limit!

Unless Xiao Ning can completely smelt the power in his body, turn it into one, and embark on the same path as Yao Yan... With Xiao Ning itself, there is no such possibility. The only way to see is whether Xiao Xuan can take this step for him.

Yao Yan is very curious about this. After all, Xiao Xuan is the monster Emperor Clan from a thousand years ago, and his talent is even higher than Hun Tiandi and Gu Yuan!

He even took a different approach and created Three Mysterious Transformations of Heavenly Flame.

"Boom~"

While the two were having a conversation, the void trembled, and an aura that seemed to come from the wilderness came out of the void. That aura made even Dou Zun's heart tremble, and there was an inexplicable sense of awe in his heart, as if a small person could see the world.

"Click~"

As Space Collapse opened a hole thousands of feet long, a ball of silver World Gate appeared in everyone's eyes, and that ancient aura spread out, making everyone's souls tremble.

"The breath of Dou Di..." Yao Yan felt the heavy pressure and sighed in his heart. He knew that Heavenly Tomb was created by the ancient Dou Di. Such abilities involving time have exceeded the abilities of Dou Sheng.

Compared with Dou Di, Dou Sheng has become an ant. The higher the strength, the gap at each level is exponential. It is tantamount to wishful thinking to rely on the number of people to kill such strong people.

"Everyone, Rules who entered Heavenly Tomb, you should also know that each clan has two quotas!" An old figure emerged from the void, his eyes calmly looked around the figures present, and said calmly.

There was a slight pause.

He looked at Yao Yan and Gu Xun'er again. "You are a special case. Please do not stay on the first two floors this time... They are reserved for the training of the younger generations of all races!"

After saying that, the old man also showed some emotion in his eyes. In previous years, most of the younger generation who entered Heavenly Tomb were Dou Zun. Even those with extraordinary talents could only enter the ranks of Nine-Revolution Dou Zun at most. No one could directly enter the Dou Sheng level like the two people in front of him.

The combat power of an intact Dou Sheng is undoubtedly overwhelming among Heavenly Tomb, even on the third floor.

After all, most of the Energy Body in Heavenly Tomb is just a wisp of Soul Imprint. Even if it was Dou Sheng in life, its current strength is indistinguishable, and it is not enough to bring the effect of experience to the two of them. The only thing that is useful to them may be the abundant Heaven and Earth Energy in it, and the time that is not equal to the outside world!

"Okay." Yao Yan nodded and responded.

Gu Xun'er was holding Yao Yan's arm. She looked cute and her attitude was self-evident. It was obvious that she would go wherever Yao Yan went.

Yao Yan hugged Gu Xun'er's weak and boneless waist and entered Heavenly Tomb first. Immediately, elites from the younger generation of all races also entered one after another, and Xiao Ning was undoubtedly the last one to enter. He looked a little uneasy, but finally gritted his teeth and followed everyone into Spatial Gateway.

Gu Yuan, who was hiding in the void, watched all this for a long time before whispering, "Xiao Xuan, did you leave any backup plan..."

The fact that Xiao Clan Emperor Jade was dropped gave him quite a headache. If this matter was not handled well, he would not be able to explain it to all the tribes. Thinking that all the tribes had taken out Emperor Jade, but the last one was Xiao Clan Emperor Jade. The eyes of all tribes, Clan Leader, would definitely fall on him.

That scene is embarrassing just thinking about it.

Heavenly Tomb.

This is a dark void, and the air is filled with a haze-like substance.

As the space distorted, Yao Yan and Gu Xun'er appeared in the void hand in hand. As soon as they appeared, an invisible ripple vibrated, causing ripples in the surrounding haze-like material.

Yao Yan raised his hand to arrest some of the haze-like substance, with a look of surprise on his face. "The curious Heaven and Earth Energy, and the Spiritual Qi that seems to contain some soul-nourishing power."

"This place is special. It can resurrect the dead with a ray of Soul Imprint. Although this resurrection is not real, it is just a unique Energy Body, but it can be resurrected with the memory of the past. Many strong people from all races will choose to be buried in it after death." Gu Xun'er's elegant eyes Sizing Up looked around and explained to Yao Yan.

"This place is very suitable for retreat. Once the matter over Xiao Xuan is solved, we will find a place with abundant energy to retreat for three years!" Yao Yan nodded slightly and suggested.

"Yeah." Gu Xun'er naturally wouldn't object to anything.

"She is really a well-behaved little wife~" Yao Yan raised his hand and scratched the bridge of Gu Xun'er's nose, and chuckled. Looking at Gu Xun'er who was smiling at Yan Ran, his voice suddenly became deeper, "If Gu Clan and I break up in the future, will you stand by me?"

"Why do you say that?" Gu Xun'er was stunned and frowned slightly, "Is it because of the Soul Clan?"

"Yes and no, I just have this worry. If you really face such a problem in the future, I want to know how you will choose." Yao Yan looked at Gu Xun'er and asked softly, because he has been hiding many things, and these things will come out sooner or later.

The reason for not telling Cai Lin and others was to protect them, and they were not involved in the Emperor Clan's affairs, so Yao Yan was not very worried.

But Gu Xun'er is different.

Gu Xun'er's eyes blinked slightly, and the black and white eyes reflected Yao Yan's face like a bright mirror, and gave her answer, "I am only on your side!"

Gu Clan has a father, but she only wants to choose Yao Yan!
