Another Dou Zun?
Xiao Yan felt the wound on his neck, his heart still pounding with fear. If Xiao Xun'er and Yao Lao had not warned him in time about that premeditated sneak attack, he would have been beheaded on the spot.
A deliberate assassination by a Dou Zun expert was simply too terrifying. Yao Lao's soul power began to attach itself to Xiao Yan's body.
Yet Xiao Yan discovered that he was still in control of his own body this time. Yao Lao's power merely caused his aura to surge dramatically, reaching the level of a seven- or eight-star Dou Zong.
"This is also one of the benefits of absorbing the Star Spirit Soul-Nurturing Orchid. Focus on the enemy!"
After Xiao Yan had completely absorbed the Crimson Lotus Karma Flame, Yao Lao was no longer as proficient in using it as Xiao Yan himself. Rather than taking control of Xiao Yan's body, it was better to let Xiao Yan control it himself; the combat power he could unleash would be stronger and more effective.
Xiao Yan nodded. When he saw the assassin, however, he was greatly surprised.
"Xiao Yan, I didn't expect your luck to be so good that you actually avoided my strike." The assassin's entire arm was covered in silver-white patterns as he looked at Xiao Yan with the gaze of a cat toying with a mouse.
It was Lu Chen, who had once clashed with Xiao Yan. He had not even been a match for Zi Yan before, and he could not withstand a single move from Xiao Yan—yet Lu Chen had somehow become a Dou Zun!
Lu Chen's appearance drew everyone's attention. Another Dou Zun! Another member of the Mystic Pattern Sect!
If the Mystic Pattern Sect had not suffered a complete defeat at this
