In the early morning, the bright sunlight gently shone on the courtyard. With a soft sound, the door to the room opened from the inside, and Xiao Han, dressed in white, walked out of the room.

Stretching, Xiao Han couldn't help but gently rub his lower back, looking troubled. His body wasn't doing so well!

Xiao Han pondered whether he had been indulging in too much sex lately and whether he should get some pills from Yi Huang to replenish his energy.

But thinking of the strange look in the other person's eyes, Xiao Han shook his head and dismissed the thought. When it comes to a man's dignity, he absolutely cannot admit defeat!

Thinking this, Xiao Han slowly walked towards the Pavilion Master's study. Two or three years had passed in the blink of an eye, and he no longer needed to deal with the Langya Pavilion affairs.

However, it's still necessary to understand some information about Central Plains, so as not to be completely clueless and make a fool of oneself later.

Sitting at the table after a long absence, looking at the pile of documents that had been organized in advance, Xiao Han couldn't help but feel a sense of comfort. It's so nice to have people at home.

He skillfully opened a document and then Xiao Han began to read it.

Time passed little by little, and the mountain of documents on the desk was gradually decreasing. Overall, nothing major had happened in Central Plains in the past two years.

It's basically about the changing of the guard between smaller factions, such as the destruction of one faction and the rise of another.

Or it's friction between a few major forces, while Super faction like the Soul Hall Pill Tower have always remained as stable as Mount Tai.

Then there are the Ancient Ruins that have appeared in Central Plains in recent years, and the gains made by the disciples and Elder of the Langya Pavilion among them.

Soon, Xiao Han let out a soft exclamation, looking at the information marked in green in his hand: Tyrant Blade Sect, Azure Feather Gate, Azure Cliff Gang, Seven Feather Pavilion...

These forces are not particularly prominent. If you break them down, the strongest one is only a first-rate force with one or two Dou Zun expert, which is almost equivalent to the Four Directions Pavilion. Many of them are even just Second-rate Force at the Dou Zong level.

However, Xiao Han was not concerned with the strength of these sects, but rather with their locations throughout the Central Plains.

Upon closer inspection, these forces are scattered across the vast land of Central Plains like chess pieces on a chessboard, almost covering the entire Central Plains.

"Looks like those kids have already established themselves in Central Plains!" Xiao Han remarked.

Without exception, these sects all have Xiao Clan Members stationed there. The Xiao Clan are basically high-ranking members in them, and some of these sects were even founded by the Xiao Clan.

Although these forces, when viewed individually, may not be able to achieve anything of value, if they are brought together under certain circumstances, they can create a formidable force.

With a flick of his Dou Qi, the paper vanished into nothingness. Xiao Han continued browsing the remaining content.

Another piece of information also caught Xiao Han's attention: a year ago, Mister Xuan Yi, one of the Pill Tower Three Giants, actually came to the Langya Pavilion with the Silver Serpent Token from the Langya Token and exchanged it for a Dou Sheng corpse.

This matter is not known to the average person; it was only because Yi Huang personally received the other party at the time that the latter recorded it.

Clearly, both Yi Huang and he were well aware of the implications behind this matter and tacitly chose to conceal the truth.

However, Xiao Han was somewhat surprised that Xiao Yan had secretly come to Central Plains.

And through some means, he met the Pill Tower Three Giants, which led to Xuan Yi stepping forward to replace the Silver Serpent Token possessed by Elder Yao and Xiao Yan with real Dou Sheng corpses.

Calculating the time, there are still more than two years until the next Central Plains Pill Assembly Gathering. So, it's hard to say how far Xiao Yan, who has found a powerful backer in advance, will be able to go in two years!

"That Medicine Venerable must have already broken through to the Dou Sheng Realm!" Xiao Han muttered to himself.

According to Xiao Han's calculations, Xiao Yan must have already obtained the Fallen Heart Flame.

Moreover, the current Medicine Venerable's Soul Strength is almost intact, and his strength is no less than that of Dou Zong Peak or even Dou Zun.

Thus, Han Feng's Sea Heart Flame from the Black-Corner Region is most likely to be caught in Xiao Yan's grasp, in addition to his original Azure Lotus Core Flame and the Medicine Venerable's Bone Chilling Cold Fire.

With the gathering of four Exotic Fire, Ninth Grade Pill, the remains of Dou Sheng, and the Ninth Order Magical Beast Essence, plus the assistance of one of the Pill Tower Three Giants — Eighth-Rank Peak Alchemist— it seems certain that the Medicine Venerable will be able to refine his body.

However, what intrigued Xiao Han was that the Starfall Pavilion had never released any news about the return of the Medicine Venerable.

First of all, Xiao Han immediately ruled out the option that Medicine Venerable did not inform Venerable Feng.

Who is Venerable Feng? He is Medicine Venerable's true brother-in-arms, who supported Venerable Yao when he was in a lowly position and later helped Medicine Venerable manage Starfall Pavilion for many years.

The bond between the two was no different from that between Xiao Han and the other two, therefore, Venerable Feng was someone Medicine Venerable could absolutely trust.

Given this, it's easy to deduce that the Medicine Venerable, or rather the Medicine Saint, is secretly plotting something behind the scenes.

"The Soul Hall is in for a rough time!" Xiao Han said gloatingly. Being targeted by a Dou Sheng Expert, he wanted to see how that bastard Hun Miesheng would react.

Then, Xiao Han picked up another red encrypted document. The red Medicine Cauldron diagram on it was clearly for Yi Huang's exclusive use.

Xiao Han did not open it directly; otherwise, the document could be declared reimbursed.

Cold Qi emanated from his hand as he slowly corroded the patterns on the document, gradually revealing the blood-red Medicine Cauldron mark that detached from the document and dissolved into crimson specks of light in the air.

This is a file that Yi Huang uses specifically to record information about the Xiao Clan. It contains details about the recent situation of the Xiao Clan.

Xiao Han looked at the contents of the document with a grim expression. The Xiao Clan family had been having a tough time lately.

After the war between the two countries of Gama and Chu Yun, a large number of Dou Emperor Dou Zong powerhouses suddenly appeared around the Jia Ma Empire.

The Jia Ma Empire is currently barely surviving.

Yun Shan, who had said he would run away immediately after the great war, was unable to escape and has been dealing with the endless stream of powerful figures who have come to test the waters of the Jia Ma Empire and the Yun Lan Sect.

The Xiao Clan did not dare to reveal too much power, but only sent two Dou Zun Elder and some Dou Zong experts to help solve the problem. However, it was clear that this matter could not be held up for long.

When the Xiao Clan's intelligence is no longer hidden, they will face a fierce and relentless attack from the Soul Hall, or rather, the Soul Clan.

Although the Soul Clan's Dou Sheng was unable to escape due to the deal with the Gu Clan, the Soul Hall's forces were still relatively strong compared to the Xiao Clan, and could handle the situation, but the losses would not be small.

However, things may still be turning around.

Xiao Han suddenly smiled as he looked at the intelligence report in his hand regarding the recent personnel changes at the Pill Tower.

The more significant the commotion in Central Plains, the safer the Xiao Clan will be in the Northwest Continent. If all else fails, the only option will be for the Xiao Clan to break up into smaller units and relocate to Central Plains.

The First Evolution

While Xiao Han was speculating about the undercurrents that would soon surge in Central Plains, in the secret chamber of the Pill Tower, the Three Giants, along with Elder Yao, were discussing a plan to make the Soul Hall pay the price.
