The moment Xiao Yan uttered these words, everyone present paused for a moment. Then, countless gazes turned and fell on Xiao Yan once again. Among them, two people, by sheer coincidence, met Xiao Yan's gaze.
Countless gazes were fixed on Xiao Yan, and everyone was filled with surprise and doubt. The black-robed man in front of them had already killed the Southern Hall, so why was he stopping them now? Did he intend to kill them all?
Although they all harbored some doubts, no one dared to voice them. Only the two people who were being stared at by Xiao Yan were frozen in place, terrified, their bodies as still as statues.
They were certain that the two people Xiao Yan had just mentioned were none other than themselves. This meant that Xiao Yan had not only killed the Southern Hall, but also intended to take them down with him...
After a long while, one of the two finally spoke, his voice trembling slightly:
"The matter of the Southern Hall is none of our concern. Would you be so magnanimous as to allow us to leave?"
As they spoke, the two hurriedly bowed to Xiao Yan. What a joke! They were facing a powerful expert at the Origin Transformation Realm. With their strength, what could they do but submit? As for the death of the Southern Hall, they could simply report it to the Palace Master at Mount Beiji when they returned. They didn't care about the man's life or death.
Upon hearing this, everyone else present immediately turned their attention to the two individuals. When they saw the robes the two were wearing, they understood why Xiao Yan had called them over. It turned out that these two were the East and West Palace Masters of the Northern Wasteland Hall.
So, it seems that Xiao Yan not only killed the Southern Hall, but is now turning around to kill these two as well. It appears that Xiao Yan is deliberately trying to make an enemy of the Northern Wasteland Hall.
Of course, those present at this moment were unaware that the Northern Wasteland Hall had been destroyed. They still believed that Qin Xu was still alive and that the Northern Wasteland Hall was still the dominant force in the Northern Wasteland. Little did they know what kind of wonderful expressions would appear on their faces if they learned that the Northern Wasteland Hall had been destroyed.
"I think there's no need to leave; let's stay..."
A smile appeared on Xiao Yan's face as he chuckled and looked at the two palace masters, a glint of shrewdness flashing deep in his eyes.
Upon hearing Xiao Yan's words, the two palace masters felt a chill in their hearts. So, the person before them still wasn't willing to let them go.
Thinking of this, the two couldn't help but exchange a glance, and saw the despair in each other's eyes. They gritted their teeth, turned around, and raised their fighting Dou Qi.
Even knowing they were no match for them, they were absolutely unwilling to stand and wait to die.
However, just as they were preparing to fight to the death, Xiao Yan grinned and said:
"Stay, join me, join the Xiao Gate."
These words struck like a bolt from the blue, reverberating in the minds of everyone present Cai'er looked bewildered, while Xiao Yi Xian showed a surprised expression on her pretty face. At the same time, the image of that once-powerful force that shook the Black-Corner Region surfaced in her mind.
The Xiao Gate means that Xiao Yan Xiao Yan will rebuild his power here, and his name will resound throughout the Northern Region!
However, almost everyone present was skeptical of Xiao Yan's words. They had never heard of this so-called Xiao Gate. Could it be some newly emerging sect in the Northern Region?
As for the two palace masters, their expressions differed. They hadn't expected that Xiao Yan had called them back for this very reason. After some thought, the expressions on their faces turned rather grim. Whether they submitted or not was a matter of life and death.
Once they submit to Xiao Yan, they will inevitably have a hard time explaining themselves to the Northern Wasteland Hall, and will certainly be hated by them and listed as someone to be killed. As for the strength of the Palace Master Qin Xu, they are all too familiar with it. If the latter wants to kill them, it is no different from crushing an ant.
However, if they refused, Xiao Yan might immediately turn hostile, which would put them in an even more dangerous situation.
After some deliberation, the two gritted their teeth, secretly channeling their inner Dou Qi. At the same time, they bowed and clasped their hands in a fist salute to Xiao Yan from afar, saying:
"We apologize, Mr. Xiao Yan. Although we know we are no match for you, we cannot bring ourselves to betray our own sect, so..."
"So there's something I forgot to tell you..."
Xiao Yan smiled wryly, a hint of mockery on his face.
The claim that they would not betray their sect was nothing but a high-sounding excuse. With Xiao Yan's experience in dealing with people, he could see right through their intentions.
Seeing the playful look on Xiao Yan's face, the two palace masters felt a chill in their hearts. The more happily Xiao Yan laughed, the more uneasy they felt. Their Dou Qi circulated rapidly throughout their bodies, and the two were ready to flee.
" Qin Xu, the master of the Northern Wasteland Hall, was slain by me on Mount Beiji a day ago. Therefore, the Northern Wasteland Hall has been destroyed. From this day forward, there is no longer Northern Wasteland Hall in the Northern Wasteland. The Xiao Gate is now officially established in Feng City!"
Upon hearing this, everyone present was shaken and shocked. What kind of power was the Northern Wasteland Hall? Qin Xu's cultivation was extremely strong. Looking at the entire Northern Wasteland, there were very few people who could match him. In addition, his murderous nature had made his fearsome reputation even greater. There were almost no people who dared to oppose him head-on.
However, it is simply unbelievable that someone could kill such a bloodthirsty butcher in this Northern Wasteland, and that the killer was such a handsome young man!
At this moment, even the two palace masters of the East and West Palaces could not believe Xiao Yan's words. They knew very well how powerful Qin Xu was. He had been able to stand in the Northern Wasteland for so many years. Qin Xu relied not only on his fearsome reputation, but most importantly on his extraordinary strength. But Xiao Yan's casual words to say that the former had died at his hands were too high-sounding!
"Hehe..."
With a faint smile, Xiao Yan had anticipated this. These people certainly wouldn't believe him and obediently follow him based solely on his words, so...
With a flick of his sleeve, the storage Storage Ring on his finger flashed, and then a mangled corpse fell to the ground in the center of the square with a thud. When everyone present looked over, the two hall masters immediately showed expressions of shock, because the corpse was none other than Qin Xu, the hall master of the Northern Wasteland Hall!
