Hidden inside the soul ring, Yao Lao heard Xiao Tian's words, which sounded like last words, and felt stifled and furious.
He hated himself for lacking the ability to protect this child.
But even if he forced himself to appear, it would only mean one more soul perishing.
"Little Xiao Tian, rest assured! If you unfortunately die at that Dou Emperor's hands, one day I will take Xiao Yan and storm the faction that Dou Emperor belongs to! I will avenge you myself! His flesh, blood, and soul will be offerings to your memory!"
When he watched that boy Xiao Tian leap off the Blue Eagle's back, Yao Lao wept, his eyes straining as though their corners would split.
Jumping from a thousand meters up as a Dou Shi was no different from suicide!
Yet at that moment, Xiao Tian's thoughts were, This feels amazing! So this is what jumping from a thousand meters up feels like! Holy cow! This is so comfortable! This young master wants to see just how the Infinite Resurrection Ability works!
"Boy, I wasn't going to kill you. Did you really need to jump down and commit suicide?" A majestic, cold voice, torn between laughter and tears, rang in his ears. Xiao Tian felt a gentle current of Dou Qi catch him like cotton candy, absorbing most of the impact.
Xiao Tian coughed, clearing away the discomfort from the jolt to his internal organs. Looking at the imposing-faced, middle-aged man with a powerful presence who had appeared in the sky, he could not help rolling his eyes. "Senior, don't think I won't hate you just because you saved me."
"Hmph! Boy, your Transfiguration Technique is quite shoddy, but you're already a Three-Star Dou Zhe at such a young age. Would you be interested in cultivating at the Misty Cloud Sect?"
Hearing the name Misty Cloud Sect, Xiao Tian's heart skipped a beat, and he felt even more disdainful. This young master is a Six-Star Dou Shi, all right? Besides, could your Misty Cloud Sect accommodate me, Xiao Tian? What a joke!
"Who are you?"
The middle-aged man spoke in a majestic, cold voice. "I am Yun Shan, the previous sect master of the Misty Cloud Sect! The foremost Dou Emperor of the Jia Ma Empire!"
Xiao Tian's eyes widened enormously, and he could not help inwardly crying, Holy shit!
"You're the Misty Cloud Sect's legendary Dou Emperor! Senior Yun Shan?!"
"Indeed!" Yun Shan was very satisfied to see the shock on the boy's face.
"Senior! Then let me die. Having met the foremost Dou Emperor, I would have no regrets even in death!"
But Xiao Tian's inner words were, Fuck! It's actually that old dog Yun Shan! Who knows whether he's had dealings with the Hall of Souls at this point? Better keep my distance.
"Boy, with me here, who could kill you?" Yun Shan grabbed Xiao Tian and broke his Transformation Technique in passing, his face smiling and satisfaction showing in his eyes.
"So young, only nine years old, and already a Three-Star Dou Zhe. Which family in the Jia Ma Empire do you come from?"
Having his bones felt all over thoroughly disgusted Xiao Tian.
"Hmph! I have no home!"
"All the better if you have no home. From now on, the Misty Cloud Sect will be your home! I'll have a beautiful senior sister guide your cultivation." Yun Shan's cold words were overbearing.
The speaker meant nothing by it, but the listener took it to heart. Xiao Tian thought, Isn't that old dog Yun Shan's disciple Yun Yun?
A beautiful senior sister! Holy cow!
Xiao Tian was a little tempted!
In his original timeline, Xiao Tian had been very fond of Yun Yun, that mature, gentle older sister.
Sorry, little brother Er Huo! Just keep your heart pure and your desires few! Attain the Dao of the Dou Di! Leave the troubles and sorrows of this mortal world to me-let me bear the suffering!
When Xiao Tian came back to his senses, he could already feel the scorching heat in the air rushing into his face!
Holy crap! We're at the sea of fire!
"Former Sect Master, who is this child?" Pill King Gu He could not help frowning when he saw Sect Master Yun Shan return with a child in his grasp, but upon discovering that the child was actually a Three-Star Dou Zhe, he could not help being surprised.
