Is this what freedom feels like?

Leaving the Ancient Emperor's Cave Mansion and breathing in the fresh air, Zhu Kun couldn't help but sigh.

He had been trapped in the Ancient Emperor's Cave Mansion for so long that he had forgotten the exact time.

Seeing Zhu Kun's old and sullen appearance, Xiao Yan and Zi Yan exchanged a glance and smiled.

"Father-in-law, why don't you come and visit the territory I've established?" Xiao Yan invited with a smile.

He hadn't been back for several years, so this was a good opportunity to go back and see his parents and older brothers.

"I really have to go and see the power my son-in-law has built." Zhu Kun laughed heartily and immediately agreed.

Since escaping his predicament, Zhu Kun has been calling him "my dear son-in-law" with utmost sincerity.

Seeing the two getting along so well, Zi Yan was overjoyed.

Led by Xiao Yan, the three arrived at the Flame Alliance.

Today, the Flame Alliance has grown into the number one power in the Northwest Continent, with immense influence and prestige.

Xiao Yan didn't make a big fuss; he simply led the two of them directly to the Xiao Clan.

Knocking on the door of Xiao Zhan and his wife's courtyard, it was Su Wan's mother, who opened it.

Looking at his increasingly youthful mother, Xiao Yan smiled gently and said, "Mother, your son has returned."

"Yan... Yan'er! And Little Purple Ziyan!" Su Wan looked at Xiao Yan in front of her, her eyes almost overflowing with joy, and quickly invited the three of them into the courtyard.

Zi Yan originally wanted to call Su Wan," but at Xiao Yan's prompting, she blushed and changed her address to "Mother."

Su Wan was not surprised by Zi Yan's change of address; she had long considered Zi Yan as one of her many daughters-in-law.

Xiao Yan also introduced Zhu Kun's identity, which was essentially a pre-meeting of the two families, making Zi Yan quite embarrassed.

As a Nine-Star Dou Sheng, one of the strongest experts on the entire continent, Zhu Kun did not show any airs in front of Su Wan, and always had a smiling face.

If you didn't know better, you'd think Old Deng was just a kind, honest man.

Before long, Xiao Zhan and the Xiao brothers, Xiao Ding Xiao Li, heard the news and rushed back, and the courtyard suddenly became lively.

Zhu Kun was particularly enthusiastic, and his drinking contest with Xiao Zhan made Xiao Yan and Zi Yan laugh out loud.

The idea of Zhu Kun, Nine-Star Dou Sheng, competing in drinking with Xiao Zhan, a Dou Emperor, and acting as if they were evenly matched, is absolutely hilarious.

As they spent more time together, Zhu Kun gained a better understanding of Xiao Yan 'Xiao Yan family and developed a growing appreciation for him.

The fact that he could get this far without strong backing is enough to prove how amazing Xiao Yan is; even he couldn't have done it.

Getting such a promising son-in-law is a huge stroke of luck!

In the following days, Xiao Yan was not idle either. He planned to create a Pocket World and relocate several forces, including the Xiao Clan, the Mittel Family, the Snake-People Tribe, and the Misty Cloud Sect, to the Pocket World.

This will both accelerate everyone's cultivation and ensure reliable safety.

Zhu Kun and Zi Yan were also there. As Ancient Void Dragon of the Void, their mastery of space was far superior to Xiao Yan's.

The three of them worked together and spent about half a month to create a Pocket World full of energy.

Afterwards, he summoned several Elder of the Snake-People Tribe, as well as several important figures from the Flame Alliance, including Hai Bodong and Yun Shan, and relayed his arrangements.

Upon receiving the order, they began the orderly relocation process...

After creating the Pocket World, Zhu Kun wanted to go back to Dragon Island, so he and Zi Yan went back to Dragon Island together.

After the two left, Xiao Yan proceeded to his next task: opening up the Two-World Passage.

He plans to open a passage between the Star Realm and the Xiao Realm to facilitate future travel between the two realms and to provide timely support.

With his current cultivation level of Seven-Star Dou Saint, opening Space Passage between these two realms would be extremely easy for him.

While spending time and effort opening up the passage, Xiao Yan also returned to the Star Realm once again.

Inside the elegant courtyard, the Yellow Springs Demon Saint sensed Xiao Yan's aura and was immediately taken aback.

"It hasn't been long... Seven-Star Dou Saint! This young friend Xiao Yan is truly a prodigy!" Yellow Springs Demon Saint looked out of the courtyard and couldn't help but exclaim.

He vaguely remembered that when Xiao Yan left, he was only One-Star Dou Sheng. In less than two years, Xiao Yan had already broken through to Seven-Star Dou Saint. What kind of heaven-defying cultivation speed was this?

As soon Xiao Yan stepped into the Star Realm, he immediately sensed several familiar auras.

As if in response to his wishes, the space in front of him distorted, and four beautiful figures slowly appeared, each exuding an extraordinary aura.

Xiao Yan looked over, and the corners of his mouth gradually turned up. "It's been a long time since I've seen the four ladies; I've missed them dearly!"

The four figures were none other than Cai Lin, Cai Die, Xiao Yi Xian, and Ya Fei.

"Brother-in-law, Cai Die has missed you so much!" Cai Die hugged Xiao Yan's arm and shook it, pouting and acting coquettishly.

Xiao Yan patted Cai Die's head and smiled, "That's right, I also missed the ladies very much, so I came back as soon as I had time."

The four women felt a sweet warmth in their hearts upon hearing this.

Greeted by four beautiful women, Xiao Yan returned to the Starfall Pavilion.

At the same time, Xiao Yan also learned about the current cultivation levels of the four women.

Cai Lin, Cai Die, and Xiao Yi Xian are all One-Star Dou Sheng, while Ya Fei is Nine-Star Dou Zun.

Three One-Star Dou Sheng and one Dou Zun —this configuration is truly luxurious.

After sitting down and chatting for a while, Xiao Yan learned from Ya Fei that Yao Lao seemed to have sensed something some time ago and was currently in seclusion.

"Brother-in-law, you are truly a genius! Following your instructions, my sister and I actually discovered the Seven-Colored Heaven Swallowing Python's lair in the Nine Nether Yellow Springs!" Cai Die raised her jade hand, revealing the seven-colored snake pattern on her wrist, and said excitedly, "My sister and I both received the inheritance! We even found our ancestors!"

"Show me."

Xiao Yan grasped the two sisters' smooth wrists and examined them carefully. He could indeed sense the soul aura belonging to the Seven-Colored Heaven Swallowing Python from them.

Although these souls possessed remarkable auras, they were all remnants of souls.

"It won't affect you, right?" Xiao Yan tapped the snake markings on the two sisters' arms, asking as he channeled his senses into them.

Cai Lin shook her head, her expression somewhat somber, and said, "Although these ancestors are in a remnant soul state, they do not have their own consciousness. In a sense, they are driven by us..."

What Xiao Yan perceived was indeed similar to what Cai Lin described.

Sensing the sisters' disappointment, Xiao Yan patted their heads and comforted them, "Don't worry, I'll help you resolve this matter later."

Upon hearing this, the two sisters' beautiful eyes filled with excitement.

After chatting for a while, Xiao Yan decided to get down to business and led the four women back to their residence.

Having spent a lot of time with Xiao Yan, the four women were quite experienced in this area. They knew exactly what Xiao Yan was going to do, and their faces flushed as they cooperated earnestly.

On the tenth day after Xiao Yan returned to the Starfall Pavilion, a pink figure arrived at the Starfall Pavilion...
