The Mysterious Supreme Elder Lin

Some time later, a corpse was placed in one of the main halls of the Starfall Pavilion.

The corpse was clearly lifeless, yet it emanated a terrifying aura.

Even for Dou Zong, getting close to this corpse would be extremely difficult.

At this moment, surrounding the corpse were Yao Lao's soul, Feng Xian, Xiao Yan, Xiao Yi Xian, and Nalan Yanran.

Of course, Nalan Yanran is currently only at the Dou Zong level, so she stays a little further away.

In addition, the reason why Qing Lin is not here is that he returned to the Myriad Formation Spirit Palace several days ago.

Unlike Xiao Yi Xian, the Leadership the Myriad Formation Spirit Palace have a training plan for Qing Lin.

Therefore, Qing Lin is naturally not suitable to stay in the Starfall Pavilion for a long time.

In this respect, Xiao Yi Xian is relatively more free.

Although she also possesses a special physical condition.

However, all she really needed to do was devour various poisonous creatures.

Furthermore, only Xiao Yan could resolve the Woeful Poison Body Aftereffects afflicting Xiao Yi Xian.

Therefore, it's not a problem to let her stay by Xiao Yan's side for the time being.

Let's get back to the present.

The moment Xiao Yan took out the Dou Sheng Corpse from his Storage Ring, everyone present was instantly stunned.

This led to the scene in the main hall of the Starfall Pavilion where Xiao Yan and the others stood silently around the Dou Sheng Corpse.

This is just outrageous!

They were just discussing how Xiao Yandan would win the championship and then take the opportunity to demand the corpse of someone who had reached the level of a nine-star Dou Zun or higher in life from the Pill Tower, when he turned around and pulled out the corpse of a Dou Sheng from his storage ring.

This incident left even Xiao Yan speechless.

In Xiao Yan's words, "It turns out the best thing was actually inside me!"

"The Dou Sheng Corpse... Is this something you can just give away casually?"

Feng Xian was at a loss for words at this moment.

You should know that even in Central Plains, if there is any news that the Dou Sheng Corpse have appeared in the world, a lot of people will rush to grab them.

Now, according to what Yao Chen just said, this is actually a graduation gift from Supreme Elder Lin Jia Nan Academy to Xiao Yan!

Could it be that Supreme Elder Lin of the Jia Nan Academy is Xiao Yan's biological grandfather?

Is this some kind of big-spending move?

To be honest, although this was just a random thought that came to mind Feng Xian, I actually guessed it right!

At the same time, Feng Xian completely believed Yao Lao's earlier statement that he was inferior to that Supreme Elder Lin.

After all, even the most powerful Yao Lao couldn't simply give away a complete Dou Sheng Corpse!

Its value is something that anyone in the know understands.

Furthermore, putting aside other matters, how weak could someone be to offer up the Dou Sheng Corpse)?

"They even used the Dou Sheng Corpse to give to Xiao Yan as a graduation gift. It seems I underestimated Supreme Elder Lin of the Jia Nan Academy!"

But aren't they being a little too nice to you, Xiao Yan?

"You can just give away something like this like that?"

The Yao Lao spoke with considerable disbelief.

The resources like the Dou Sheng Corpse were useful, not to mention Xiao Yan back then, even he at his peak could have used them!

This demonstrates just how precious this resource is.

However, it was precisely because of this that the Yao Lao vaguely sensed that something was amiss.

Just as Yao Lao was frowning and pondering the intentions of Supreme Elder Lin from the Jia Nan Academy, Xiao Yan, who had remained silent since taking out the Dou Sheng Corpse, suddenly had a glint of light in his eyes.

"No, teacher, I think you're mistaken. Rather than saying that Supreme Elder Lin gave this Dou Sheng Corpse to me, it would be more appropriate to say that he gave it to you."

Of course, you could also say it's a gift to us!

Xiao Yan's words indeed guessed the intention behind Xiao Lin giving him the Dou Sheng Corpse.

That's right, Xiao Lin gave this Dou Sheng Corpse to both Xiao Yan and Yao Lao!

At the same time, as Xiao Yan finished speaking, a thoughtful look flashed in Yao Lao's eyes.

"So that's how it is. In other words, what I hid on you, Xiao Yan, didn't escape the notice of that Supreme Elder Lin! However, even so, the goodwill he showed to us, master and disciple, was a bit too much."

Given the strength they've displayed, even if I were still at my peak, I wouldn't need to go out of my way to curry favor with them...

Just as Yao Lao said, let alone Dou Sheng, even Half-Saint level expert would not normally need to go out of their way to curry favor with an Eighth-Tier Alchemist.

Even though he was the so-called number one Alchemist on the continent, he was still only Eighth-Tier alchemist back then.

"Well, it seems that Supreme Elder Lin must have realized back then that you needed the Dou Sheng Corpse to revive me, Master. As for why the other party was so kind to us, master and disciple, I have no idea."

However, I think it must be related to my grandfather.

After all, it was Grandpa who gave me, Yanran, and Xun'er the Letter of Recommendation from Supreme Elder Lin.

At this point, Xiao Yan could only guess at this.

"Oh right, how could I forget about Xiao Yan's mysterious grandfather? Over the years, Xiao Yan's grandfather should have advanced to the level of Half-Saint by now, right?"

The other party is powerful enough, and has a close friendship with that Supreme Elder Lin.

Therefore, this can only be the reason!

Finally, a look of understanding appeared on the Yao Lao's face.

He felt he had guessed the truth!

But who would have thought that they were actually the same person?

Without a God's-eye view, the Yao Lao's guess was indeed quite reasonable.

For this reason, the Yao Lao decided not to pursue the matter any further.

Xiao Yan, of course, had no doubts.

And just like that, the problem has a perfect answer!

Afterwards, Xiao Yan happily put the Dou Sheng Skeleton away again.

As the Dou Sheng Skeleton disappeared from the main hall of the Starfall Pavilion, the invisible pressure also vanished instantly!

"Phew~"

Only then did Nalan Yanran finally breathe a sigh of relief.

For Nalan Yanran, who was only at the Dou Zong Realm, standing next to the Dou Sheng Skeleton was incredibly stressful!

"Damn it, I'm still not strong enough! If this continues, won't I be stuck standing behind Xiao Yan forever, being protected by him? No, I must become stronger!"

At this moment, Nalan Yanran's heart was filled with resentment.

Thinking of how she had just faced the oppressive aura of the Dou Sheng Corpse and couldn't even get close, while Xiao Yi Xian could steadily stay by Xiao Yan's side, Nalan Yanran's desire to become stronger reached its peak!

She didn't want to be just a pretty face that Xiao Yan could only protect!

At this moment, Nalan Yanran also remembered what the Sword Venerable had said to her.

The Myriad Sword Pavilion possesses records of its founder Yun Potian, during his adventures in the Central Plains.

Since that's the case, she wants to retrace the path that her ancestor Yun Potian once walked through those records!
