Storm is Coming

"Since you are so sincere, it would be unreasonable for me not to join." Ge Xiusi readily accepted the Blood Serum's invitation.

"I just hope you can wait a while, as I have some things to arrange."

Without asking any Blood Serum, and indicating that he didn't care, he prepared to leave.

Before departing, Ge Xiusi called out to the Blood Serum, saying solemnly, "But there's one thing I need to remind you of..."

"That Ice Saint possessed the strength to slay a King decades ago, and moreover..."

Ignoring the increasingly serious look in Blood Serum Sheng's eyes, Ge Xiusi gazed at the former meaningfully and said, "He's been looking for us remnants from back then!"

He had originally made some arrangements under the Bodhi Ancient Tree, intending to make a fortune before leaving.

It was precisely because he sensed the striking similarity between Xiao Wu and Xiao Han that he stopped his plans. If he exposed his whereabouts to that person, Ge Xiusi could not guarantee that he could escape from Xiao Han's clutches.

"I hope you can tell that Soul Race Patriarch not to underestimate that person, otherwise, he will surely suffer a great loss."

Blood Serum stopped in his tracks, turned around, and smiled, "Thank you for your kindness."

"However, they are merely natives who have only lived for a few hundred years; there is no need for you to worry so much."

After saying that, he disappeared from Ge Xiusi's sight.

"Natives?" Ge Xiusi chuckled dismissively, then ignored him.

Anyone with any understanding of the Great Thousand World, whether they are Evil Clan or powerful figures from the Great Thousand World, knows very well that the natives of the Lower Plane are not to be feared.

What's truly terrifying is the existence that can grow to its peak in Lower Plane. If the path forward in this world hadn't been blocked, Ge Xiusi wouldn't believe that the being who could kill the Evil King's Hall back then was some simple character.

"The one who Reception Army..." Ge Xiusi muttered to himself, gazing into the distance, "One person is enough!"

In his view, the method of Blood Serum to help the Soul Race Patriarch advance to a higher level and thus encourage him to break the dimensional blockade was too risky. Since the Soul Race Patriarch had been planning for many years and still kept the entire continent in the dark, his scheming was obvious. Cooperating with him was no different from asking a tiger for its skin.

Even if the former might have its own plans and backup plans, Ge Xiusi still didn't have a high opinion of the Blood Serum's scheme. With his partial memories of the Evil King's Hall, he had a better way.

"Are you planning to attack the Soul Hall now?" Ye Jianxin and Yi Huang stared at Xiao Han in astonishment.

"The situation with the Heaven Demon Phoenix Clan is still unresolved," Ye Jianxin objected.

"We can't gain much advantage by fighting on two fronts."

Yi Huang nodded in agreement. The war with the Soul Hall was destined to be a protracted one, and according to intelligence, the Soul Hall now had a group of powerful individuals from the Soul Clan supporting them, making them stronger than before. It would take them a considerable amount of effort to take them down.

Langya Pavilion was already in a state of war preparedness against the Soul Hall, with the battle expected to begin within a month or two. However, a strange thing has happened Heaven Demon Phoenix Clan has actually intervened.

At such a time, any unexpected event could affect the course of the battle. Although the Heaven Demon Phoenix Clan's strength was barely enough, it could still cause an imbalance between the two sides.

"We need to cause some trouble for the Soul Hall." Xiao Han's eyes were filled with determination.

"Looking for trouble?" The two were puzzled, but this small doubt was completely dispelled after Xiao Han handed over the information he had prepared to them for a look.

"No wonder the Soul Clan has been so well-behaved lately!" Yi Huang said in a deep voice, clearly realizing that the former's behavior was abnormal.

Stretching, Ye Jianxin, "If we're going to attack the Soul Hall, let me be the vanguard."

He had been holding back his anger for a while and was looking for a place to vent it. He really didn't believe that anyone in the Soul Hall besides the Six-Star Dou Sheng Hall Master, Hun Miesheng, could be his opponent at this moment.

Xiao Han and the other man did not object to Ye Jianxin's words. The fact that he had refrained from challenging the Soul Hall to a duel was already a meritorious act of their intervention.

Then, Ye Jianxin turned and left, saying, "I'm going to deal with the troubles of the Heaven Demon Phoenix Clan with Xiao Wu first. Remember to let me know when you're dealing with the Soul Hall."

Although he was prepared to fight on two fronts, Ye Jianxin still hoped to resolve one difficult problem ahead of schedule.

The Xiao Clan welcomed Xiao Han back after a long absence.

"Little guy, you're pretty fast!" Xiao Xuan said in surprise, looking at the familiar figure in front of him.

If he remembered correctly, Xiao Han had only been away from the Xiao Clan for a maximum of two months, which was far from the one-year agreement they had made.

Xiao Han said helplessly, "I know this trip was too rushed, but I have important business to attend to. I hope my ancestor will forgive me."

"What? What trouble has the Soul Clan caused this time?" Xiao Xuan knew very well that with his strength as a junior, only the Soul Clan's unusual activities could make him feel like he was facing a formidable enemy.

Without hesitation, Xiao Han immediately said, "This junior speculates that the Soul Clan seems to be preparing to attack other Ancient Races."

Xiao Xuan's eyes narrowed. "Is this true?"

"Very likely," Xiao Han nodded affirmatively, and then described his speculation in detail.

As Xiao Han uttered his last word, Xiao Xuan's brows were already deeply furrowed.

"So you've come here to send me to Central Plains now?"

"Yes." Xiao Han hesitated slightly before saying, "In addition, I would like to invite several ancestors of the Xiao Clan to accompany me."

"Are you preparing to confront the Soul Clan?" Xiao Xuan asked strangely.

The resurrected members of the Xiao Clan were once his trusted guards, and their faces have long been imprinted in the minds of other powerful members of Ancient Races.

Once they appear in public, attracting further investigation, almost everything about the Xiao Clan will be exposed. At that time, it's hard to guarantee that those with ulterior motives won't discover the secrets they've painstakingly hidden.

"Please rest assured, Ancestors, I have already made arrangements for the whereabouts of all the ancestors." Xiao Han was not surprised by Xiao Xuan's question and took out a Scroll, saying:

"Please take a look, ancestors."

Xiao Xuan accepted it, and after more than ten minutes, he couldn't help but exclaim in amazement:

"Your generation of young people are truly remarkable."

"Young?" Xiao Han shook his head in denial. "We're all hundreds of years old, how can we be considered young?"

(Xiao Xuan: "I'm such an old man, I'm so sorry!")

Without responding, Xiao Xuan sighed, "If you were given more time, perhaps the Peak Five Saints from a thousand years ago would reappear on the continent."

According to his assessment, there are at least five Dou Sheng descendants on the Fierce Qi Continent who have the potential to grow into Peak Dou Sheng.

"Ancestor, you flatter me," Xiao Han said modestly.

"Puppet Saint, Jiang Yu. The ancient sect, the Ten Thousand Puppets Sect, still has its lineage preserved. We are getting old..."

Xiao Xuan said calmly, "We'll do as you say."

"Three days later, we will accompany you to Central Plains."

As Xiao Xuan finished speaking, a storm quietly swept through Central Plains.
