Dou Qi Continent, Wutan City, Xiao Clan!

"After all these years since transmigrating, this day has finally come!"

Inside his room, Xiao Yan, the Xiao Clan's third young master, stood before his desk and murmured to himself.

He was not the original Xiao Yan, but an Otherworlder who had brought a system with him.

He knew perfectly well that, having transmigrated into the destined protagonist's body, all he needed to do was follow the original plot step by step.

Then he could become a Dou Di expert, with plenty of scares along the way but no real danger!

That was why, throughout all his years here, he had never done anything too far out of line.

Even though he had already become a Dou Huang expert, a presence as rare as phoenix feathers and qilin horns in the Jia Ma Empire.

He still pretended to be at the Third Stage of Dou Qi, playing house with the Xiao Clan's little brats.

He had even resisted the urge to reveal his strength during the Dou Qi test two days ago, displaying only cultivation at the Third Stage of Dou Qi.

Why was he being so cautious?

For one thing, a Dou Huang expert from the Gu Clan was secretly watching the Xiao Clan's every move.

If revealing his strength early triggered a chain of butterfly effects, would his knowledge of the future still be any use?

After all, he was different from other Otherworlders.

He was destined to become a Dou Di expert.

There was no need to take that risk and go around stirring up trouble.

Once he had lain low until he became a Dou Di expert, he could naturally reign supreme over the Dou Qi Continent.

And make everyone bow down before him in worship!

Just as Xiao Yan was considering what to do next.

An elderly voice came from outside his room.

"Third young master, the clan leader has asked you to come to the main hall!"

The speaker outside was the Xiao Clan's steward, known as Steward Mo. He was one of the few people in the clan who still treated Xiao Yan courteously while he pretended to be useless.

"All right!"

Xiao Yan answered from inside the room, picked up the repudiation letter he had prepared on his desk, and headed outside.

That was right!

Today was the day Nalan Yanran would come to break off their engagement.

Knowing the plot inside out, Xiao Yan had long since written his repudiation letter and was waiting for her arrival.

That was also why he had been sighing just now. Once today was over, he would no longer need to pretend to be useless.

He could reveal a little of his hidden strength as appropriate.

"Let's go, Steward Mo!"

Opening the door, Xiao Yan looked at Steward Mo standing outside in a blue robe and spoke with a smile.

"Yes, third young master!"

Steward Mo nodded amiably, but a sharp gleam flashed through his eyes the instant he turned around.

This is Xiao Yan, the protagonist of Battle Through the Heavens! he thought to himself.

Whether I can defy heaven and rise to greatness all depends on this one chance.

He, Steward Mo!

Was actually an Otherworlder too!

Unlike Xiao Yan, however, he had not been here for many years.

He had only transmigrated here last night.

He had also brought a Thousand Transformations System with him.

But in his eyes, this system was something of a chicken rib-little meat to savor, yet a shame to throw away.

Apart from allowing him to transform into anything and everything, it had no other abilities.

That certainly was not enough to conquer the Dou Qi Continent and steal Xiao Yan's women and fortuitous opportunities!

Despite having transmigrated into an old man, his heart was still young.

He still harbored lofty ambitions, dreaming of founding a sect, becoming its patriarch, and stealing all of Xiao Yan's beautiful confidantes!

So he had spent the night devising this plan to "sacrifice the plum tree in place of the peach."

Xiao Yan was still useless right now, and Yao Lao had yet to formally make contact with him.

All he needed to do was kill Xiao Yan and then assume his appearance.

From then on, he would be Xiao Yan!

All the opportunities and pretty girls originally destined for Xiao Yan would belong to him.

Of course, this plan was extremely dangerous!

He knew that a Dou Emperor had been secretly watching the Xiao Clan all along.

If that Dou Emperor discovered him, he would most likely be crushed to death with a casual pinch.

Fortunately, his system had given him a Spatial Talisman that could briefly seal off an area from the outside world.

With that, his plan was certain to succeed!

At the thought, the corners of Steward Mo's mouth lifted slightly as he watched Xiao Yan beside him out of the corner of his eye.

He was so excited that his body began to tremble faintly.

When the two entered the rear courtyard, Steward Mo paused slightly. Silver light flashed in his hand, and he silently activated the Spatial Talisman.

At that moment, although they appeared to still be in the Xiao Clan's rear courtyard.

This space had actually been completely sealed off from the outside world.

No one outside could see either of them at all.

"Third young master, please stop!"

After using the Spatial Talisman, Steward Mo abandoned his earlier humble demeanor and spoke with his head held high and his chest thrust out.

"Hm?"

"Steward Mo, is something the matter?"

Xiao Yan turned to look at him, a questioning glint in his eyes.

It had to be said that the Spatial Talisman was remarkably powerful.

Even a Dou Huang expert as terrifying as Xiao Yan had not noticed any change in his surroundings.

"Xiao Yan, I won't waste words with you. Give me the ring on your hand, and I can grant you a quick death!"

Steward Mo clasped his hands behind his back, exuding the air of a master above worldly affairs as he spoke with breezy composure.

"The ring on my hand?"

Xiao Yan's gaze flickered, and the look he gave Steward Mo gradually grew peculiar.

If I remember correctly, there wasn't a scene like this in the original story, was there?

What's going on here?

"Exactly. Hand over that ring obediently, and I'll let you die without pain. Otherwise..."

As Steward Mo spoke, his imposing frame shook, fully revealing the aura of a One-Star Dou Shi.

Powerful Dou Qi spread outward, making his robes snap and flutter.

"Hiss!"

At the sight, Xiao Yan could not help drawing in a sharp breath.

Could this Steward Mo have transmigrated here just like me?

Good thing I've been cautious all these years, always pretending to be the original Xiao Yan.

I've made him think I'm still the same Xiao Yan.

Otherwise, if a scheming old bastard like him holed up in the shadows, he'd really give me a headache!

At that thought, Xiao Yan felt a surge of relief over his wise decision not to alter the original plot.

"Haha! Well?"

"Scared now, aren't you?"

"With your mere Three-Stage Dou Qi, you have absolutely no chance of surviving against a Dou Shi expert like me!"

"Of course, I also know this is my only chance. Once tonight is over, it'll be much harder for me to make a move against you!"

"But since I've already seized this opportunity, kindly die!"

"Rest assured, I'll live on under your name!"

"The man who conquers this continent will still be the Flame Emperor. Naturally, I'll also help you take very good care of all the women you encounter along the way."

"So, Xiao Yan, you can go in peace!"

Seeing Xiao Yan draw in that sharp breath, Steward Mo could not help bursting into laughter.

Clearly, he thought his strength had intimidated Xiao Yan, who was only at the Third Stage of Dou Qi.

Making Xiao Yan fear him undoubtedly gave Steward Mo a great sense of accomplishment.
