Seeing the Black Jade Ruler fall into Xiao Yan's hands, Bai Ruoxuan, whose face was pale on the ground below, couldn't help but feel a surge of resentment in his eyes. However, with Ouyang Yu in front of him, he could only suppress this hatred in his heart for the time being. While cursing inwardly, he suddenly felt a sense of weakness in his body.
He had been severely injured by Xiao Yan's powerful punch earlier, but fortunately, the pills he had taken had protected him, and he was unharmed. Now that the remaining power of the pills in his body had been exhausted, the pain returned. Seeing this, an old man beside him quickly gave him another healing pill. After the medicinal effects spread throughout his body, his complexion improved slightly.
In the void, Ouyang Miao frowned as he looked down at Bai Ruoxuan and the others, his eyes filled with disgust. After what had happened before, he felt even more disgusted with these guys who he already disliked. However, since Ouyang Yu had spoken personally, he naturally couldn't say much. Besides, it was obvious to everyone that Ouyang Yu's actions were mostly biased towards Xiao Yan's wishes, which puzzled him greatly.
In the past, Ouyang Yu had never paid any attention to Bai Ruoxuan, so it was truly unimaginable that he would suddenly be willing to take him as a disciple.
Thinking of this, Ouyang Miao couldn't help but turn his gaze to Xiao Yan, a hint of suspicion in his eyes. What was so special about this guy that even Ouyang Yu, who had just met him, was willing to take his side?
Could it be because of the Heavenly Flames?
Ouyang Miao raised an eyebrow, then shook his head inwardly. He had not revealed anything about the Heavenly Flames to the former, so Ouyang Yu naturally did not know. After pondering for a while, he shrugged helplessly and turned his gaze back to Ouyang Yu.
At the same time, Ouyang Yu's gaze returned to Bai Ruoxuan. Seeing the latter's state, he glanced at him indifferently before calmly saying:
"Alright, that's enough for now. Ruoxuan's injuries are quite serious, so please come with me. As for the rest, Shui Miao, I'll leave you to me."
Upon hearing this, Ouyang Miao nodded respectfully, while Bai Ruoxuan below immediately showed a look of joy. He then quickly mobilized the remaining Origin Qi in his body and followed Ouyang Yu as he turned to head deeper into Sacred Gold City. Afterwards, Bai Rong frowned, glanced deeply at Xiao Yan in the sky, snorted coldly, and then followed.
Bai Hua and Lian'er, who were not far away, also came to Xiao Yan's side. The three of them looked at Ouyang Miao. It seemed that the game between them was temporarily over. Next, they should prepare to go to the Xiao Clan.
Just as the group was about to set off, Bai Ruoxuan, who had brushed past Xiao Yan, suddenly spoke in a low, mocking voice.
" Xiao Yan, is it? The Black Jade Ruler will remain in your hands for now. One day, I will make you kneel and return it to me!"
Upon hearing this, Bai Hua and Lian'er's expressions immediately turned cold, while Xiao Yan smiled noncommittally and said:
"Come and get it."
Upon hearing this, Bai Ruoxuan's expression immediately darkened. He was about to speak again when Ouyang Yu suddenly frowned and uttered a low groan. Bai Ruoxuan then turned his expression and hurriedly chased after him with a smile. However, although he was smiling, there was a hidden rage and sinister intent deep in his eyes. Judging from his appearance, if Ouyang Yu hadn't been there, he probably would have charged straight at him.
Xiao Yan smiled slightly, seemingly unaware of the ill intent hidden deep in the former's eyes. He turned to look at Ouyang Miao, who was flying towards him from the side. The latter nodded slightly, glanced at Bai Ruoxuan who was quickly leaving, and snorted coldly, saying:
"It's just empty talk; ignore him."
Xiao Yan smiled and shook his head. If he cared about such trivial matters, he probably wouldn't have gotten to where he is today. He glanced at the street below, which looked like ruins, and shrugged. Xiao Yan Ouyang Miao slightly, indicating that Xiao Yan was alright. Then, he led the three of them towards the teleportation array.
A moment later, the group arrived at a square in the center of Sacred Gold City. With their arrival, the eyes of many people in the square turned to Xiao Yan and his group.
As the heir of the Ouyang Clan, Ouyang Miao's status was naturally known to everyone in Sacred Gold City. Those who usually walked with him, besides a few scions of Old Gu aristocratic families, were only some relatively famous young people in the Central Region. However, these three were not among them. Leaving aside the young man in black robes, the other two hadn't even reached the Origin Emperor level. Such people would likely be forgotten in the Central Region. Yet, they were standing with Ouyang Miao, which surprised many.
However, soon, thanks to revelations from some insiders, the suspicious gazes of the crowd immediately turned into shock. Especially after they learned that even Bai Ruoxuan of the Bai Clan had suffered a setback at Xiao Yan's hands, many people showed expressions of schadenfreude. Clearly, they did not have any goodwill towards the Bai Clan.
"Three large teleportation arrays—truly befitting one of the three great clans, such a feat is rarely seen."
Looking at the magnificent plaza before him, especially the massive teleportation array that was constantly operating under a golden glow, Xiao Yan couldn't help but take a deep breath. At this moment, a dazzling light was flashing on the teleportation array, and a solid array shield was covering it, blocking all the energy fluctuations within. This would reduce energy consumption and also prevent some surprise attacks.
As the array barrier dissipated, dozens of people emerged from the array, and then others stepped back into it...
"This is just a teleportation array that my Ouyang Clan built ourselves. In the deeper parts of the Central Region, there are even more powerful teleportation arrays, seventh-tier teleportation arrays. They're not small, but they're not exactly large either."
Upon hearing this, Ouyang Miao smiled calmly. What was quite astonishing to most people was clearly much less impressive in the eyes of this young master. Xiao Yan could only nod with a light laugh and say nothing more.
After all, their positions are different, and what they see is naturally different as well. The Ouyang Clan is one of the super powers on the continent, and as the heir, his vision is naturally beyond that of ordinary people. Xiao Yan considers himself a newcomer, but it is only a matter of time before he understands this vast Central Region.
Let's go.
The group arrived at the teleportation array, exchanged a few words with Ouyang Miao, and then stepped directly into the array. Because of the latter, they were spared the trouble of paying Spirit Stone. After Xiao Yan and the other two stepped into the array, the two exchanged a smile and nodded to each other.
Immediately, on a stone platform outside the teleportation array, an old man manipulating the array formed hand seals. A unique energy fluctuation spread out, and a golden array shield enveloped the entire platform. Then, the massive array beneath Xiao Yan and the others' feet emitted a brilliant golden light. As the light intensified, covering everyone's bodies, the teleportation array was fully activated, and everyone's figures vanished from the Sacred Gold City...
