Xiao Yan saw daylight again

With the matter of the Myriad Formation Spirit Palace settled, Xiao Lin returned to the Jia Nan Academy, preparing to dedicate himself to studying Emperor Arrays in the Ancient Emperor's Cave in order to break through to the realm of Spirit Array Master!

However, Xiao Lin had just returned to the Jia Nan Academy...

"Boom"

A figure suddenly rushed out from the Blazing Sky Qi Refining Tower.

He was a young man who looked to be in his early twenties, with thick black hair and handsome features, but he also had a somewhat lazy air about him. He was wearing a long black robe.

And who else could this young man be but Xiao Yan?

"Phew~, finally out here! The sunshine and fresh air outside are so much better!"

Taking a deep breath and gazing up at the sky, Xiao Yan wore a look of utter delight.

That's for sure!

The oppressive feeling of the Underground Magma World is something only those who have ventured in truly understand!

Who in their right mind would want to stay in that situation forever?

"Buzz~"

Just then, Xiao Yan suddenly noticed that the Void a hundred meters in front of him was suddenly distorting.

"No way? I just left that awful place, and now someone's attacking Jia Nan Academy again?"

Seeing this, Xiao Yan's lips twitched, and he couldn't help but complain.

However, just as Xiao Yan finished complaining, a familiar figure walked out from the distorted Spatial Passage.

Upon seeing the figure, Xiao Yan was initially stunned, then immediately dissipated the Dou Qi he had secretly gathered and breathed a sigh of relief.

"Oh, what a coincidence, Xiao Yan, you're out?"

Xiao Lin's teasing voice reached Xiao Yan's ears at just the right moment.

That's right, Xiao Lin had just returned from Central Plains when he happened to run into his grandson who had left the Underground Magma World.

"Oh, it's Supreme Elder Lin! You startled me! I thought another enemy was attacking Jia Nan Academy! Did Supreme Elder Lin just return to the Jia Nan Academy?"

Upon realizing they weren't enemies, Xiao Yan asked curiously.

In Xiao Yan's eyes, if Supreme Elder Lin was already at the Jia Nan Academy, even if he was alerted by Xiao Yan's rush out of the Blazing Sky Qi Refining Tower, he shouldn't have opened Spatial Passage to come over directly.

Instead, they should be like the Elders and teachers gathered at the foot of the Blazing Sky Qi Refining Tower right now!

"That's right, I went out to take care of some small business, so I just got back! As for you, Xiao Yan, not bad at all. You spent two years in that Underground Magma World and you're already at the Peak Nine-Star Dou Emperor. And it looks like you could break through to Dou Zong anytime, right?"

With just one glance, Xiao Lin had already clearly understood Xiao Yan's situation.

Peak Nine-Star Dou Emperor + four Heavenly Flames + Mortal Realm Peak Soul Power – this is Xiao Yan's current configuration.

Furthermore, Xiao Lin discovered that Xiao Yan now possessed another Soul Body!

That must be the Heavenly Fire Venerable whom he rescued from the Underground Magma World.

Since Heavenly Fire Venerable was rescued by Xiao Yan should have already learned Heavenly Fire Venerable's signature skill - the Five Wheel Leaving Fire Art.

It's important to know that in the Original Work, when Xiao Yan used four different types of Heavenly Flames to perform the Five Wheel Leaving Fire Art, its power was comparable to Heaven Rank Dou Technique.

If Xiao Yan were to master all five Heavenly Flames, the word "comparable" could be dropped.

It can be said that Xiao Yan's strength has now undergone another qualitative leap!

"You flatter me, Supreme Elder Lin. I was merely lucky."

Xiao Yan truly lives up to his reputation as the eternal Lucky Guy.

Whenever something good happens to him, he always claims it's just luck.

Seeing this, Xiao Lin couldn't help but smile.

"Don't be modest. In the entire Jia Nan Academy, not to mention the students, even most of the Elders are no match for you! And you still have a year left before graduation."

Who knows when this record will be broken!

Xiao Lin couldn't help but tease Xiao Yan at this moment.

To this, Xiao Yan could only scratch the back of his head and chuckle foolishly.

It's clear that Xiao Yan is in a good mood.

"Alright, you go take care of your own business first! When you have time, come visit me. I can specially research some Combination Formations for you to try out."

After glancing at the anxious group of people below the Blazing Sky Qi Refining Tower, Xiao Lin didn't want to stay in the sky for too long. He gave Xiao Yan a meaningful smile and then prepared to return to his Trial Grounds.

As for Xiao Yan, even though his strength has greatly improved, he still couldn't help but tremble when he heard Xiao Lin say that he would specially research some Combination Formations for him.

After all, he still vividly remembered his last experience!

Although navigating such Combination Formation would be very beneficial for him, the process was incredibly grueling!

Even just thinking about it made Xiao Yan feel a chill.

"Definitely! Definitely!"

Xiao Yan could only force a smile and give this reply.

Yao Lao, who was inside Xiao Yan's Storage Ring, naturally knew what his disciple had gone through, so he also showed a hearty smile.

As expected, Yao Lao was quite interested in the matter of being able to train Xiao Yan.

However, Heavenly Fire Venerable was standing next to Yao Lao, felt somewhat puzzled.

However, this did not prevent Heavenly Fire Venerable from recognizing Xiao Lin as the person who had told him that someone would enter the Underground Magma World and rescue him within five years.

And today, what Xiao Lin said back then has indeed come true!

This made Heavenly Fire Venerable vaguely guess that Xiao Lin might have some plans for Xiao Yan!

"... I'll find another opportunity to tell Venerable Yao and Xiao Yan about this later."

Since Xiao Yan is currently at the Jia Nan Academy, Heavenly Fire Venerable will not reveal his speculations at this moment before he knows what other arrangements Xiao Lin has for Xiao Yan, so as not to disrupt Xiao Lin's plans.

Xiao Lin returned to his Trial Grounds.

Xiao Yan, who remained where he was, was immediately greeted with a warm hug.

"Xiao Yan!"

A fragrant breeze wafted by, and almost as soon as Xiao Lin left, Nalan Yanran had already thrown herself into Xiao Yan's arms.

Feeling the familiar scent emanating from the beauty in his arms, Xiao Yan smiled and then hugged her back.

"Ah, I'm back!"

The long-awaited reunion stirred a wave of emotion within the engaged couple.

In fact, Nalan Yanran had wanted to rush up for a long time.

Unfortunately, Xiao Lin had just returned and was talking to Xiao Yan in mid-air, so Nalan Yanran could only suppress her excitement.

Although they have only been separated for about two years, it feels like a lifetime has passed for both of them.

Actually, if Xiao Lin hadn't guaranteed Xiao Yan's safety two years ago, Nalan Yanran probably would have followed him into the Underground Magma World.

After all, Xiao Yan had been swallowed by the Fire Python formed from the Fallen Heart Flame before!

How could Nalan Yanran not be anxious?

Now that Xiao Yan has finally appeared, how could Nalan Yanran not be excited?

For Xiao Yan, it was actually quite the same.

Seeing the light of day again, and his fiancée once more, he longed to hold her in his arms!

Especially after his encounter with Medusa in the Underground Magma World, Xiao Yan became somewhat addicted to the experience.

You have to understand, Xiao Yan was originally a young man full of vigor and passion.

He could naturally restrain himself before having sex with a woman.

But once this happens the first time, it's completely unstoppable; it's perfectly normal.

However, the thought of Medusa, coupled with Xiao Yan's sudden feeling of guilt as he held Nalan Yanran in his arms, made him realize...

But he quickly managed to regain his composure.
