Xiao Lin Gets the Cold Shoulder

"Since there's nothing we can do about the Ancient Emperor's Cave, let's leave it alone for now, Old Xiao. The important thing is the old Dragon Emperor Zhu Kun of the Ancient Void Dragon Clan!"

Unlike Ling Miao, although Ji Li had some ideas about the inheritance of the Ancient Emperor's Cave, it was really just a tiny bit.

After realizing there was no hope, what he cared about even more was actually the old Dragon Emperor Zhu Kun of the Ancient Void Dragon Clan!

"Do I really need you to remind me?"

Seeing Ji Li's excited expression, Xiao Lin smiled calmly and said...

"Hehe, I knew you wouldn't let an opportunity like this slip by!"

Upon seeing Xiao Lin's calm demeanor, Ji Li knew that the other party had already begun his plan.

Compared to the Nihility inheritance of the Ancient Emperor's Cave, what truly helped them was actually the old Dragon Emperor Zhu Kun of the Ancient Void Dragon Clan!

Ji Li clearly thought of this principle immediately as well.

"Palace Master, Second Palace Master, what exactly are you talking about?"

The cryptic conversation between Xiao Lin and Ji Li left Ling Miao somewhat bewildered.

What happened to Dragon Emperor Zhu Kun of the Ancient Void Dragon Clan?

Wasn't he unable to leave the Ancient Emperor's Cave?

"What we're saying is that as long as Zhukun can break free from the Ancient Emperor's Cave, given my current relationship with him, he will become the strongest ally of our Myriad Formation Spirit Palace!"

At that time, not only will the Soul Hall be no longer a threat to us, but even the Hun Clan will no longer be a threat!

Seeing that Ling Miao seemed a little confused, Xiao Lin had no choice but to bring up the topic directly.

Ling Miao seemed to understand something, but a look of confusion still lingered on her face.

"Normally, that's true, but don't forget, our sect is called the Myriad Formation Spirit Palace! I can't speak for others, but as the Palace Master of the Myriad Formation Spirit Palace, in the art of Formations, if I say I'm second, who in the entire Dou Qi Continent dares to say they're first?"

Xiao Lin's words were incredibly domineering!

But at the same time, he also had the confidence to say that!

Because, not long before Ji Li, Xiao Lin had already broken through to become Earth Tier High Rank Spiritual Formation Master.

This is the result of his research over the years on the Emperor Array that trapped Zhukun.

Xiao Lin was confident that once he broke through to the Heaven Tier Spirit Array Master, he wouldn't necessarily be able to directly break through the Tou She Ancient God Emperor Array left behind by the Ancient Emperor Tuoshe, but at least he should be able to create a small opening and release Zhukun.

Although doing so would mean that the Ancient Emperor's Cave would lose its function as a retreat route for the Xiao Household.

But once Zhukun emerges, Xiao Household still need to consider a way out?

At the same time, Ling Miao finally understood Xiao Lin's meaning!

"Palace Master, do you mean to say..."

Ling Miao's eyes held an undisguised shock.

You must know, that's Emperor Array left behind by the Tou She Ancient God!

Even the ancient Dragon Emperor Zhu Kun of the Ancient Void Dragon Clan was trapped, which shows how terrifying this Emperor Array is.

But now that her own Palace Master had revealed the possibility of breaking that Emperor Array, how could she not be surprised?

"That's right! In at most five years, I'm confident I'll make another step forward in the art of Formations! At that time, I'll be able to open a gap in that Emperor Array and release Zhukun!"

This was already Xiao Lin's conservative estimate.

If he devotes himself to the research of that Emperor Array, this time may even be shortened further!

"I see. I didn't expect that you, Palace Master, were already confident in breaking the Emperor Array!"

Hearing this, Ling Miao couldn't help but sigh.

As a former Elder of the Ling Clan, Ling Miao naturally knew some of the history of the Ancient Void Dragon Clan.

In the era of the old Dragon Emperor Zhu Kun, none of the current Eight Great Emperor Clans were a match for the Ancient Void Dragon Clan!

Thousands of years ago, the old Dragon Emperor Zhu Kun was already a top expert on the Dou Qi Continent, possessing the cultivation of Peak Dou Sheng!

However, according to the history she knew, Zhukun suddenly disappeared one day.

The Ancient Void Dragon Clan searched the entire Dou Qi Continent but couldn't find their Dragon Emperor!

Gradually, as time went by, everyone assumed that the old Dragon Emperor Zhu Kun had died due to some accident.

It was precisely because of Zhukun's disappearance that the Ancient Void Dragon Clan later descended into internal strife.

Similarly, it was also due to the internal strife within the Ancient Void Dragon Clan that one after another, High-Star Dou Sheng within the clan fled into the Void.

Nowadays, this once-powerful Monster Supreme Family can't even find a single High-Star Dou Sheng, and the reason lies here.

However, this absolutely does not mean that all the High-Star Dou Sheng of the Ancient Void Dragon Clan are dead!

Monsters already have long lifespans, let alone the Ancient Void Dragon Monster Supreme.

Therefore, once Zhukun is freed, he will definitely be able to find all those High-Star Dou Sheng from his clan who had fled into the Void.

In this way, the Ancient Void Dragon Clan is estimated to have strength no less than that of the Gu Clans!

With the Ancient Void Dragon Clan of the Void protecting them, do they still need to fear the Hun Clan?

They'd probably be able to roam freely across the entire Dou Qi Continent!

Ling Miao was, after all, Dou Sheng, and she quickly figured out the stakes involved.

"Another five years? Old Xiao, can you speed things up a bit? If another Peak Nine-Star Dou Saint expert appears on the Dou Qi Continent, it'll be quite a spectacle, won't it?"

Ji Li clearly also has a heart that loves to watch the drama unfold!

At the same time, after Ji Li asked, Ling Miao also turned her gaze to Xiao Lin.

After learning this news today, they all eagerly hope that Xiao Lin will release Zhukun as soon as possible.

"If I focus solely on studying that Emperor Array, it should be possible..."

Xiao Lin considered his words for a moment before speaking.

Just as Xiao Lin finished speaking, Ji Li and Ling Miao suddenly exchanged a glance and nodded in perfect unison.

"Alright, Old Xiao, you know I'm back, you can leave now!"

Ji Li said in a very serious tone.

"Yes, Palace Master, there are no major matters in the sect that require your attention right now, and the Second Palace Master has also returned. You should focus on doing what you're supposed to do."

Ling Miao agreed with Ji Li's words.

Xiao Lin: "..."

No, is he being rejected?

Earlier, most people in the Myriad Formation Spirit Palace complained that Xiao Lin liked to be a hands-off manager.

Now, things have gotten really bad Ji Li and Ling Miao, the two highest-ranking people in the sect besides him, are actually kicking people out! Can you believe it?

This is practically making him work like a beast of burden, researching the Emperor Array!

"I've come back this time because there are still some things I need to take care of..."

"It's alright, leave it to us!"

"It is our responsibility to share the Palace Master's burdens!"

Before Xiao Lin could even finish speaking, the two of them interrupted him.

Clearly, the two of them were trying to force Xiao Lin to go back and study the Emperor Array!
