Xiao Lin Was Dumbfounded

"It's finally here..."

Inside the Ancient Emperor's Cave, when Xiao Lin received the message from Ji Li that Xiao Yan and Nalan Yanran had arrived in Central Plains, a smile couldn't help but appear on his face.

With the current intelligence capabilities of the Myriad Formation Spirit Palace, and the fact that he learned from his son Xiao Zhan that Xiao Yan and Nalan Yanran had already set off for Central Plains.

Almost immediately after the two landed, the Myriad Formation Spirit Palace received the intelligence.

Therefore, Ji Li naturally informed Xiao Lin of this message.

"Old Xiao, I heard you had that brat Tian Huangzi do that to your grandson... I mean, aren't you treating your grandson a bit like he's not your grandson at all?"

After informing his friend about his grandson, Ji Li suddenly asked about something else.

As Tian Huangzi's teacher, Ji Li naturally already knew from his disciple about the task Xiao Lin had assigned to him earlier.

Well, Ji Li had the same feelings as Tian Huangzi at the time.

That's Xiao Yan's bad luck, getting stuck with such a Grandson-Trapping grandfather!

In fact, Tian Huangzi was secretly glad that she hadn't been arranged like that by the Palace Master.

Otherwise, he'd probably be traumatized!

"Ahem~, Old Ji, what are you talking about? I'm training that kid Xiao Yan! Haven't you heard the saying, 'No pain, no gain'? Xiao Yan should be grateful to have a grandfather like me who's so dedicated to him..."

"Alright, stop! Don't try to hide your intention to Grandson-Trapping, I understand!"

Xiao Lin was interrupted by Ji Li before he could finish speaking.

He had always known that Xiao Lin was thick-skinned, but he never expected him to be this shameless.

In this respect, he has to admit defeat!

Afterwards, Ji Li also told Xiao Lin about the current dynamics of various forces in Central Plains.

Because of the information that Xiao Lin had previously spread through Ji Li and Ling Miao, the entire Central Plains may appear calm now, but undercurrents are already surging beneath the surface.

The idea of the lineage of Tou She Ancient God has actually existed in Central Plains for a long time.

However, apart from the Eight Great Emperor Clans, most of the other forces had not been confirmed at the beginning.

Nowadays, who wouldn't be tempted when they hear that someone will soon be auctioning off items related to Tou She Ancient God?

Although most factions knew they might only be able to join in the fun, they still wanted to participate!

It can only be said that, faced with temptation, how many people can resist the greed in their hearts?

As the instigator of this matter, Xiao Lin was naturally happy to see it happen.

After all, the more turbulent the Central Plains are, the less likely the Hun Clan will turn their attention elsewhere!

Sure enough, the Soul Hall had already received news of the death of Venerable Qing Hai.

However, the Soul Hall still hasn't taken any action on this matter because the situation in the Central Plains is currently turbulent.

With the situation in Central Plains already out of control, how could the Soul Hall possibly have the time to pay attention to a small place like the Northwest Continent?

It's not that the Soul Hall doesn't care about this matter anymore, it's just that they've temporarily put it aside.

After the auction of the Tou She Ancient God Jade concludes, the Soul Hall will naturally investigate the death of Venerable Qing Hai.

This is also why Xiao Lin released the news about auctioning the Tou She Ancient God Jade.

"... That's all for now. By the way, how much longer will it take on your end?"

After discussing the matters in Central Plains, Ji Li naturally inquired about Xiao Lin's current situation.

As for me, I feel the progress should be a little faster than expected.

Xiao Lin's tone carried a hint of confidence.

Because he devoted most of his time to studying the Emperor Array, Xiao Lin felt that his understanding of the Dao of Formation was increasing almost every day!

This resulted in a rapid increase in the speed at which he could condense Spirit Seals and improve his Spirit Array Master level!

"Hahaha, as expected, you should have stayed in the Ancient Emperor's Cave!"

Xiao Lin: "..."

To be honest, Ji Li is indeed a great friend who's good at making fun of others!

He could find all sorts of ways to mock Xiao Lin.

"Alright, if there's nothing else, don't bother me."

Xiao Lin just wanted to hang up the "phone" as soon as possible and didn't want to hear Ji Li's annoying voice.

"Oh, by the way, Baili Qing brought Qing Lin back a while ago. Speaking of which, the Triple Jade-Green Snake Flower Pupils is indeed extraordinary. In less than ten years, it has enabled someone with almost no cultivation to become Dou Venerable!"

Wow, if this got out, a whole bunch of people would be green with envy!

Not to mention others, even Ji Li's tone was filled with envy at this moment.

It can only be said that some people with special physical constitutions are indeed somewhat blessed on the path of cultivation.

Xiao Lin was not surprised at all by this.

After all, isn't that how it is in the Original Work?

"It seems our Myriad Formation Spirit Palace is about to rise to another level!"

However, although he had expected it, Xiao Lin's tone still carried a clear sense of joy.

"Hehe, Old Xiao, that's not all! Baili Qing and Qing Lin brought back another talent this time!"

The mysterious voice of Ji Li traveled through the Communication Stone to Xiao Lin's ears.

"Hmm? You've brought back another talented person? What's the story? Tell me about it."

Now, Xiao Lin was genuinely puzzled.

If he remembered correctly, Baili Qing took Qing Lin to the Northwest Continent for training, right?

It's not that small places lack talent, but rather that the chances of encountering them are not high.

Compared to the exceptional talents and abundant resources of Central Plains, the cultivation abilities of people from other continents are generally far inferior.

Therefore, Xiao Lin was curious when he heard Ji Li say that Baili Qing and Qing Lin had brought back another talented person.

"She's also a young girl, and like Qing Lin, she possesses a special constitution—the legendary Woeful Poison Body!"

"What? The Woeful Poison Body?"

No sooner had Ji Li finished speaking than Xiao Lin was taken aback.

No way?

What a coincidence!

"Ugh~, Old Xiao, what are you doing? You scared me! It's just a Woeful Poison Body, it's rare, but you don't need to react like this, do you?"

Clearly, Ji Li was still unaware of why Xiao Lin was behaving this way.

"Stop with the nonsense, just tell me, what's the name of that little girl with the Woeful Poison Body?"

Although he already had some guesses in his mind, Xiao Lin still wanted to get confirmation from Ji Li.

Sensing the urgency in Xiao Lin's tone, Ji Li, though puzzled, didn't continue to dawdle or keep him in suspense.

"I remember, it was called something like Xiao Yi Xian."

Xiao Lin: "..."

Well, she really is Xiao Yi Xian!

Xiao Lin never expected that, in the end, Xiao Yi Xian would actually come to his Myriad Formation Spirit Palace!

To be honest, Xiao Lin was a bit confused about this matter.

I'm going back!

"Hey, wait a minute, Old Xiao, why are you coming back again?"

"Stop arguing!"

As soon as he finished speaking, Xiao Lin disconnected the Communication Stone.

Immediately afterwards, Xiao Lin, with unknown feelings, returned to the Myriad Formation Spirit Palace.
