Western Lin Region, in the Qingtuo Mountain, is the former site of the Four Great Sects.
At the top of the cliff, buildings are being rebuilt at an astonishing speed, and the entire Qingtuo Mountain has been transformed in a short period of time.
Somewhere on the cliff, two figures dressed in white robes stood side by side. It turned out that these two were Bai Ying and his son Bai Zhan.
Since Xiao Yan and his group wiped out the remaining forces in Qingtuo Mountain a few days ago, the Bai Clan took advantage of the situation and reaped a huge benefit.
Although Qingtuo Mountain is now just the former site of the Four Great Sects, the treasures within are still unimaginable to outsiders. With the manpower of the Bai Clan, they have collected all the remaining resources from the Four Great Sects, which is quite a sum for them.
Of course, what they found most worthwhile was Qingtuo Mountain.
Nowadays, Ye Luotian has already merged with Qinhuang Lost Valley, and Qingtuo Mountain is now unclaimed territory. As a resource-rich area in Western Lin Region, Qingtuo Mountain's resources are enough to support them in becoming the next super power if they can occupy it!
"Father, do you think Xiao Yan will go to save them?"
Bai Ying and his son stood with their hands behind their backs, gazing into the vast Western Lin Region ahead, and even at the boundless mountain range at the end of their sight. At a certain moment, Bai Zhan couldn't help but ask a question out of curiosity.
"Hehe, I'll definitely go."
Bai Ying smiled faintly, a confident smile on his face.
Seeing this, Bai Zhan felt the same way. The father and son smiled at each other, their eyes shining with the same wisdom.
"Father, what do you think of Xiao Yan?"
"How do you think you compare to him?"
Faced with Bai Zhan's question, Bai Ying's words left the former somewhat at a loss.
Seeing this, Bai Ying couldn't help but sigh deeply and said in a deep voice:
All I can say is that this person is not suitable to be an enemy.
Meanwhile, in the Western Wilderness Region, in the Pingshan Western Hollow.
Xiao Yan stared in astonishment at the middle-aged man before him, never expecting that even this man would become Ye Luotian's prisoner.
Lü Zhongtian, once hailed as one of the three top experts in the Western Region, was a Nine-Star Dou Di, but his cultivation was already close to that of the Origin Transformation Realm expert. His combat strength was also known as the number one below the Origin Transformation Realm. As for the other two, Xiao Yan now thought they must be Qin Shuo and Leng Bingshuang.
However, Xiao Yan never expected that with his cultivation level, he would be controlled by Ye Luotian, which was truly astonishing.
Seeing that the black-robed youth in front of him actually called out his name, Lü Zhongtian couldn't help but show a look of dejection. When Xiao Yan introduced himself, the people present, who were originally wary of him, immediately showed a look of shock.
Xiao Yan's name is now known to everyone in the Western Region, especially with the upcoming great battle in a few days, which has attracted the attention of countless people. Although they are in the lair, they also learned about this from the six people outside. This shows just how famous Xiao Yan is in the Western Region.
Of course, all of this was orchestrated by Ye Luotian and his group. Their goal was to ensure that everyone in the Western Region witnessed the defeat of the Xiao Gate in the great battle a few days later. Once the Xiao Gate was defeated, the other forces in the Western Region would naturally be disintegrated from their core, and Qinhuang Lost Valley would easily gain control of the Western Region.
In this battle, Qinhuang Lost Valley's ambitions were not limited to the Xilin Mountain Range; their covetous eyes were for the entire Western Region!
"Mr. Xiao Yan, your battle with Qinhuang Lost Valley is imminent. You've come here alone; if Ye Luotian discovers you, wouldn't that be dangerous!"
Coming to his senses, Lü Zhongtian hurriedly reminded Xiao Yan. At the same time, the group behind him couldn't help but show resentment when they heard Ye Luotian's name. If it weren't for Ye Luotian, so many of them wouldn't be locked up here. It was truly a disgrace that a powerful Dou Di was being imprisoned like a prisoner!
"Hehe, everyone, rest assured, I've come here precisely to rescue you from here."
Upon hearing this, Xiao Yan smiled slightly, his expression calm.
However, everyone present could only smile wryly at this. They wanted to escape, but even if they could, they still couldn't escape Ye Luotian's clutches.
Having ingested the Withered Leaf Gu, their lives were already in Ye Luotian's hands. He could make them live or die at will. The so-called Dou Di was nothing but a joke.
"Alas, Mr. Xiao Yan, as you can see, it's not that we don't want to leave, but unfortunately, we're afflicted with Ye Luotian's Withered Leaf Gu. Even if we leave, he'll still capture us. I know that Mr. Xiao Yan came here to prevent us from becoming Ye Luotian's accomplices in the battle a few days from now, but unfortunately, we're now at his mercy, unable to control our own actions. So... Mr. Xiao Yan, for our freedom, for the peace of the Western Region, you should... kill us!"
Upon hearing this, a look of fear immediately appeared on the faces of everyone present. However, in the end, they still sighed heavily. Indeed, as things stand now, the only way to free them from Ye Luotian's control seems to be to kill them all!
"Hehe, Senior Lü, you flatter me. I'm here to save you, how could I possibly kill you? Don't worry, nothing in this world is absolutely impossible. Even if Ye Luotian's Withered Leaf Gu is powerful, it doesn't mean there's no way to break it."
Xiao Yan smiled, his face full of confidence.
Upon seeing the confident smile on his face, Lü Zhongtian's expression faltered slightly. Then, everyone present saw Xiao Yan slowly raise his palm, and with a thought, a pale blue flame appeared in Xiao Yan's palm with a soft "poof".
"This is... Heavenly Flames!"
The moment the flames appeared, everyone present couldn't help but gasp in surprise. Even Lü Zhongtian's face showed shock. Then, Xiao Yan clenched his fist, and the flames in his palm exploded, splitting into thumb-sized flames that landed in front of everyone present.
Looking at the tiny, floating flame before them, none of the people present dared to underestimate it. Heavenly Flames, as the most domineering power in the world, even if it was just a small cluster, its power was absolutely not to be underestimated. Moreover, at this moment, Dou Qi in their bodies was sealed, and they had no power to resist the Heavenly Flames. If they were to get even a little bit of it, it would be a matter of life and death in an instant!
"Gentlemen, if you trust me, then please swallow the flames before you. Once the Heavenly Flames enters your bodies, it will naturally eliminate the Withered Leaf Gu within you. At that time, Ye Luotian's control over you will also naturally disappear, and you will all regain your freedom."
These words moved many present, but none dared to swallow them. After all, the thing floating in front of them was Heavenly Flames, and if they were not careful, they would die. Who would dare to try it lightly?
Seeing that the person behind him remained unmoved, Lü Zhongtian could only grit his teeth, look at Xiao Yan, nod heavily, and then swallow the floating flame in front of him.
As soon as the Heavenly Flames entered his body, it spread out at an astonishing speed. Relying on the natural restraint of fire on plants, it quickly burned away all the Withered Leaf Gu in Lü Zhongtian's body in a short time. At the moment the Withered Leaf Gu was completely removed, the Origin Qi sealed in Lü Zhongtian's body suddenly started to circulate, and his cultivation level was restored!
"Success! My cultivation has been restored, and the Withered Leaf Gu... has been completely eliminated!"
Having recovered his cultivation, Lü Zhongtian couldn't help but shout out loud. At the same time, a faint layer of Origin Qi rose from his body. Indeed, his cultivation at the Early Origin Transformation Realm had been completely restored!
With Lü Zhongtian leading the way, the others were naturally excited and swallowed the flames in front of them without hesitation. Soon after, the cultivation levels of the more than thirty Dou Di experts present, as well as Lü Zhongtian, who was at the Early Origin Transformation Realm, were fully restored!
After everyone thanked Xiao Yan, they escaped from Pingshan Western Hollow through the Great Dao of the Void under his guidance. Thus, one of Ye Luotian's trump cards was destroyed by Xiao Yan.
With this major hidden danger eliminated, it's time to prepare for the formal showdown with Qinhuang Lost Valley!
