At this moment, Yao Chen led Xiao Yan in thanking Lan Hong. If Lan Hong had not stepped in this time, they might truly have been doomed.
"Thank you, Senior, for lending us a hand. I never expected you to be a Dou Saint."
"A Dou Saint is merely a beginning. Beyond the Dou Qi Continent lies another, higher world.
One flower, one world; one leaf, one Bodhi. I presume I need not explain further."
"Senior, are you saying that the reason there are no Dou Emperors on the Dou Qi Continent is because they all ascended?"
"That is only one of the reasons. You do not need to know the real reason yet.
Where do you plan to go next? To Jia Nan Academy to find your little Xun'er?"
"Yes, I do plan to go to Jia Nan Academy, but I fear the Soul Hall will not let this go."
"Just go. Even if Jia Nan Academy is no match for the Soul Hall, the Soul Hall will not easily provoke Jia Nan Academy. After all, many experts of the Central Plains came from Jia Nan Academy."
"I see. Then I can rest easy."
"You are resting easy far too soon. Go back to Wutan City and take a look."
"Wutan City! What do you mean, Senior?"

Since people from the Soul Hall have already appeared in the Gamma Empire, making a trip to Wutan City would be nothing
