• Xiao Yan watched the parallel confrontation and reflected that leaving the Douluo Continent had not ended everything.

A few days before his departure, he arrived with two women at Holy Soul Village, where residents were replacing the village sign with one bearing the name “Flame Emperor.”

• Dugu Bo told Xiao Yan that Qian Renxue wanted to see him and urged him to stay, but Xiao Yan explained that people in his own world were waiting for him.
