Furious Fallen Thunder Crystal Ice
"Clan Chief..." Once Xiao Han and his companion were completely out of sight, one of the Heaven Demon Phoenix Clan Elder stepped forward and asked hesitantly, "Are we just going to let them leave like this?"
Not to mention that Xiao Han led people to block the gate of their Heaven Demon Phoenix Clan today, if word gets out, it will be a great disgrace to their clan.
Moreover, they paid a huge price to rescue the Supreme Elder had been trapped and forced to feign compliance.
However, the Elder have all been investigated and no contingency plans have been found, so their safety has been guaranteed. With the speed of their Heaven Demon Phoenix Clan, catching up with the Ice Saint and the others should not be difficult.
But Huang Tian remained inactive, which puzzled the Elder of the Heaven Demon Phoenix Clan.
"What, you think we can really keep him here?" Huang Tian's expression was no longer calm; instead, it became ferocious.
"Your subordinate is foolish!" the Elder said, covered in cold sweat.
"The enemy has one Five-Star Initial Stage and one late-stage four-star. Who among you will hunt them down? Huh?" Huang Tian said in a terrifying tone.
Thinking of this, Huang Tian felt a surge of anger. Although there were some Dou Sheng Expert in the clan, only Thunder Phoenix Dou Sheng himself were qualified to fight against the other party.
The former is still recovering from Xiao Han's insidious seal, and if he were to pursue and kill him alone, he would probably be easy prey.
"Yes," the Elder replied, trembling with fear.
"You all need to reflect on yourselves!" Huang Tian focused his gaze on Thunder Phoenix and the others, saying with a look of disappointment.
Huang Tian absolutely refused to believe that Thunder Phoenix and his group hadn't underestimated their opponents. Otherwise, all four Dou Sheng wouldn't have been captured, leading to their current predicament.
"Yes." Thunder Phoenix and the others also felt ashamed, as this was too embarrassing, and prepared to go into seclusion to cultivate.
"Should we continue to meddle in Central Plains?" Thunder Phoenix asked hesitantly. Originally, they intended to intervene in Central Plains through the Langya Pavilion, but the latter disagreed. They then wanted to demonstrate their power to the world through war, but...
They lost a lot of money!
He didn't even know whether the plan should continue.
"Continue," Huang Tian paused for a moment, "Go and probe the Four Directions Pavilion's attitude!"
Having learned his lesson, Huang Tian no longer dared to be arrogant and chose the Four Directions Pavilion as his target.
His reputation was decent, though perhaps unremarkable in the eyes of these Super faction, but he held considerable status among most people in Central Plains. Moreover, his strength wasn't great, making him easy to control.
He simply refused to believe that the so-called Four Directions Pavilion, which didn't even have Five Star Dou Zun, could possibly produce any trouble!
"Yes."
After Huang Tian gave the order, he stopped following up. If he, as the boss, had to worry about everything, what would be the point of having so many people working under him?
Huang Tian felt helpless, but Xiao Han and the other two were in high spirits.
"Hey, hey, shut that lewd grin of yours." The Fallen Thunder Crystal Ice, traveling through the Void Space, felt a chill run down its spine as it looked at Xiao Han's uncontrollable smile and couldn't help but remind him.
"Oh!" Xiao Han realized what was happening, wiped the clear liquid from the corner of his mouth, and said with a serious expression.
"But we've really hit the jackpot this time. Hahaha~" A moment later, Xiao Han burst into laughter again.
That's too much. We collected ransom from five Dou Sheng first, and then we squeezed another layer from the Heaven Demon Phoenix Clan.
It must be said that what a person can obtain is largely related to their social standing.
Back then, his Langya Pavilion had obtained no more than fifteen Earth Rank Intermediate Dou Techniques and cultivation methods, surpassing the entire Heavenly Underworld Sect's ancestral home.
A hundred years ago, when he was still Dou Zun, he would have to fight a lot of people for an Earth Rank Advanced Dou Techniques.
But now...
He only "smallly" captured a few Dou Sheng and "casually" collected some ransom, but the gains before and after were incomparable.
Not to mention the mountain of high-grade medicinal herbs, there are also dozens of high-grade Earth Grade High Rank Cultivation Method and Dou Techniques, as well as the most precious Heaven Tier Dou Technique and Ninth Grade Pill. What a windfall!
The difference before and after is like the difference between a skinny bamboo pole and obesity! Xiao Han's smile became increasingly impossible to hide.
"Alright, alright, I know you're something else!"
Fallen Thunder Crystal Ice said irritably, "In all these years, I have never seen anyone dare to Dou Sheng Expert for ransom."
Generally speaking, if you have a falling out with Dou Sheng Expert, the best course of action is to kill them outright to avoid having to deal with a whole host of troubles later.
But Xiao Han clearly possesses the strength to back it up, so he has no inhibitions. Furthermore, the forces he extorts are all well-known and reputable entities. They may run away, but they can't hide. If they dare to retaliate, Xiao Han can retaliate in kind.
However, this only lasted for a short time. Soon, Xiao Han put away his lewd smile and became serious again.
"So, did you discover anything at the time?" Xiao Han asked in a serious tone.
Xiao Han was in a hurry to end the war with the Soul Hall not only because he still had to block the gate of the Heaven Demon Phoenix Clan, but also because the Fallen Thunder Crystal Ice had sent him a message saying that Ye Jianxin's injuries were problematic.
To be on the safe side, Xiao Han readily agreed to Hun Miesheng's proposal for peace.
Now that everything is settled, Xiao Han has time to focus on this issue.
"Are you sure there are no problems with the origins of your Soul Clan?" Fallen Thunder Crystal Ice asked, staring directly at Xiao Han without blinking.
"I don't know much about the Soul Clan either. They seem to be the oldest and most mysterious Ancient Races. I don't know much about the others either," Xiao Han said helplessly.
How could a self-made young man who rose to prominence in just a century possibly understand the Soul Clan, Ancient Races with a history spanning countless years?
"What's wrong? Is there a problem with the Soul Clan?" Xiao Han asked curiously.
He knew that Fallen Thunder Crystal Ice, that "old thing," wouldn't care about the Soul Clan's strength or reputation.
In terms of knowledge, who on the entire continent has a broader perspective than this old man who lived tens of thousands of years ago?
When his former master Ice Spirit Great Emperor, was dominating the Fierce Qi Continent, the first Dou Di of the Soul Clan was nowhere to be seen! The Soul Clan's affairs were probably nothing to him.
That's why he was curious about why Fallen Thunder Crystal Ice would be curious about this junior of the Soul Clan.
"I sensed Evil Qi in Ye Jianxin's wound!" Fallen Thunder Crystal Ice stopped walking and said in a solemn tone, tapping her fingers incessantly on her arm.
"Evil Qi? How is that possible?" Xiao Han was shocked and subconsciously questioned. The Soul Hall was a native force of the Fierce Qi Continent, how could it possibly be associated with the Evil Clan?
However, Xiao Han calmed down in the next instant. He wasn't someone who couldn't accept reality. The Fallen Thunder Crystal Ice couldn't possibly be deceiving him, nor could it be mistaken in its perception. The only thing he could do was trust the former.
"I'll try to find out, but... the result might not be satisfactory," Xiao Han said decisively.
Since the Soul Clan has somehow become associated with the Evil Clan, Xiao Han will not complain or blame others; exploring deeper reasons is the right solution.
However, he didn't forget to give a heads-up. Xiao Han never doubted the mystery and power of the Soul Clan, and the existence of the Evil Clan was probably also a secret within the Soul Clan.
If it weren't for the fact that Fallen Thunder Crystal Ice had been guarding the seal for many years and was extremely sensitive to Evil Qi, it would probably have just been regarded as some kind of special weapon and wouldn't have paid much attention to it.
Therefore, this investigation is most likely to be fruitless.
"Hmm." Fallen Thunder Crystal Ice's eyes were filled with killing intent. "I don't believe that the so-called Soul Clan won't slip up."
He was truly enraged now. In Fallen Thunder Crystal Ice's view, the Soul Clan's meddling and the resulting devastation were not so unacceptable.
He had seen even more unscrupulous forces before, and although he disapproved of them, it was not something he could change, so it was no big deal.
However, for a force on the Fierce Qi Continent to collude with the Evil Clan is a betrayal of the entire continent. As an elder who has survived from that era to the present, Fallen Thunder Crystal Ice's hatred for the Evil Clan is beyond measure.
Along with this, the Soul Clan was also completely blacklisted by him.
It's all about patience! He's already wasted tens of thousands of years fighting the Evil Clan, so a little more time won't make a difference.
