Wutan City, the Xiao Clan's Back Mountain.
After watching from the void for a while, Xiao Tian Ce found it rather dull. With a flicker, he appeared outside Wutan City, then sent Xiao Yin a message telling him to come over.
He had not waited long before Xiao Yin appeared beside him.
"Xiao Yin pays his respects to the clan leader." The moment Xiao Yin saw Xiao Tian Ce, he dropped to one knee and saluted.
"No need for formalities. You no longer need to watch the other members of the Xiao Clan. From now on, just keep an eye on Xiao Yan." Xiao Tian Ce waved for him to rise, then gave his instructions.
"Understood." Xiao Yin cupped his hands.
With Xiao Yin's strength and his dark-attributed Dou Qi, Yao Chen shouldn't discover him. Keeping close to protect Xiao Yan shouldn't pose much of a problem.
With that thought, Xiao Tian Ce waved his hand. Xiao Yin's figure flickered and swiftly vanished from sight.
Once everything was settled, Xiao Tian Ce set off on foot. He had come out this time partly to witness the famous broken-engagement scene from Battle Through the Heavens in Wutan City, and partly to wander around the Northwest.
Even on foot, however, his pace was far beyond that of an ordinary person. With a single step, he appeared ten feet away the next instant. Clearly, Xiao Tian Ce was using a simple Dou Technique.
By the afternoon, Xiao Tian Ce had reached a place called Qingshan Town on the outskirts of the Magical Beast Mountain Range.
As he watched those people of meager strength-most of whom had not even reached Dou Zhe-daring to eke out a living on the outskirts of the Magical Beast Mountain Range, Xiao Tian Ce could not help sighing inwardly.
