As the flas receded and the spatial rift disappeared, the scorching heat that had filled the skies quietly dissipated as well.
"You two brats, you finally ca out." After the initial shock, Xuan Kongzi imdiately laughed.
"Greetings, Three Leaders." Wei Yang and Xiao Yan smiled and cupped their fists toward the Three Great Leaders.
Xuan Kongzi smacked his lips with a tsk. He knew the environnt of the Star Region well. After it had beco a forbidden zone, he had personally entered twice, so he understood just how brutal it was.
Even he didn’t dare remain in there for too long, yet these two brats had stayed inside for nearly a year, and ca out without a scratch. Even though he already knew a bit about what had happened, seeing it with his own eyes still made Xuan Kongzi feel it was unbelievable.
"Huh, your auras..."
After the initial surprise, Xuan Yi slowly regained her composure. Her gaze swept carefully over the two of them, and then she was utterly stunned.
Good heavens, if she wasn’t mistaken, one of them was at peak Four-Star Dou Zun, and the other at peak One-Star Dou Zun. And this was in less than a year!
This kind of cultivation speed, even riding a rocket wouldn’t be this outrageous.
"You two... did you really subdue that Three Thousand Burning Fla?" Xuan Kongzi’s face was filled with shock, and then his eyes flashed. After sucking in a deep breath of cold air, he asked.
Wei Yang smiled slightly and glanced at Xiao Yan.
"Hehe, Elder Xuan, you’re not thinking of taking it back, are you?" Xiao Yan chuckled.
That answer was basically an admission. The Three Great Leaders exchanged looks with each other.
"You managed to get rid of that disaster, I ought to thank you instead." Xuan Kongzi waved his hand, secretly letting out a sigh of relief. Then he clicked his tongue again and said, "But I really didn’t expect you could actually subdue the Three Thousand Burning Fla. That beast’s stubbornness gave the three of us constant headaches."
While Xiao Yan and Leader Xuan Kongzi were talking, Xian’er walked over with Ah Da and Xiong Zhan, coming to stand beside Wei Yang.
"Brother Yang."
"Master."
Wei Yang nodded and asked softly, "During this ti, nothing happened at ho, right?"
"No problems." Xian’er reached out her cool jade-like hand to clasp Wei Yang’s palm. On her beautiful and delicate face blood a delighted smile as she lightly shook her head.
After chatting idly for a while, Xuan Yi finally reminded gently, "Why don’t we all go inside the Pill Tower first, and talk slowly there."
Hearing this, Xuan Kongzi and Tian Leizi both glanced at Wei Yang and Xiao Yan, their expressions turning a bit more serious. Seeing this, Wei Yang and Xiao Yan both raised their brows and nodded.
"According to intelligence we secretly obtained, not long after the changes in the Star Region, Hall of Souls secretly transferred Yao Chen."
Inside one of the Pill Tower’s eting rooms, after everyone had taken their seats, Xuan Kongzi spoke with a grave expression.
Hearing this, Wei Yang and Xiao Yan exchanged a glance, both frowning.
Troubleso.
"So he really was secretly transferred." Xiao Yan’s face sank, his fists clenching slightly. He hadn’t expected Hall of Souls to be this cautious. That ant the soul of Mu Gu they had captured was practically useless.
"Do you know where Yao Lao is being held by Hall of Souls now?" Wei Yang looked at the three of them.
It seed the Pill Tower’s intelligence network was quite capable, at least able to obtain so of Hall of Souls’s secret information in ti. This was the benefit of having a powerful force behind you, far stronger than them fumbling around blindly on their own.
Xiao Yan also stared at the three with burning eyes.
"There are so leads, but nothing confird yet. We still need so ti before we can track down precise information."
Xuan Kongzi said slowly, "But you don’t have to worry too much. Based on the intelligence we have, it shouldn’t take long to find out clearly."
Wei Yang and Xiao Yan both nodded lightly, letting out a quiet sigh of relief. As long as there were clues, things could be handled.
"You don’t need to be overly worried either. Hall of Souls has great use for Yao Chen, so unless absolutely necessary, they will not easily harm his life." Xuan Kongzi said to comfort them.
"Yes, we are grateful to the three Presidents for this."
"It’s nothing, we’re just doing what we can by providing so intelligence."
After saying that, Xuan Kongzi fell silent for a mont, then spoke softly, "But if we do get exact information, rescuing Yao Chen can only rely on your strength."
"If we act directly, it will inevitably enrage Hall of Souls, and that would trigger a full-scale war between the two factions. Right now, the Pill Tower is not Hall of Souls’s match, so... I hope you can understand."
"Understood." Wei Yang smiled at this.
"As long as the Pill Tower can help us find where Hall of Souls is imprisoning Master, that’s more than enough." Xiao Yan also spoke quickly.
On this point, both of them were understanding, and didn’t say more.
The three of them were the Leaders of the Pill Tower. Every word and every action represented the Pill Tower.
If a war between the two sides really broke out, the implications would be far too massive. Unless absolutely necessary, the Pill Tower wouldn’t dare openly declare war on Hall of Souls.
Besides, the Pill Tower didn’t owe them anything. The fact that they were actively providing intelligence was already enough. What more could they possibly demand?
And besides, things were different from the original story. In the original story, Xiao Yan was fighting alone. The only forces he could call on were Feng Zun Zhe of the Falling Star Pavilion, and a few solitary Dou Zun who had no attachnts.
Those scattered experts only agreed to help because they had once received favors from Yao Lao. A few cats and dogs—hardly overwhelming power.
At that ti, Xiao Yan was only at peak Dou Zong. He had fused rely three Heavenly Flas, and the Fla Mantra had only evolved to High-Level Earth Grade. With just that much strength, clashing directly against Hall of Souls was incredibly dangerous.
But now, it was completely different. He was already a Dou Zun, had fused five Heavenly Flas, and the Fla Mantra had evolved to Quasi-Heaven Grade. Compared to the original, the difference was like heaven and earth.
Not to ntion, he now had Wei Yang’s support, and with the forces Wei Yang commanded, the situation was far better.
At the very least, Xiao Yan wasn’t without reliance. Wei Yang’s presence was Xiao Yan’s greatest support now—not Gu Xun’er.
Because unlike Gu Xun’er, Wei Yang could go all out to help him, whereas Gu Xun’er could not. Because of that, Xiao Yan actually had so confidence in his heart.
"Sigh, you two can rest assured. No matter what, Hall of Souls is considered our enemy as well, so the Pill Tower will assist you within our ability." Xuan Kongzi spoke, sounding a bit guilty.
At this, Wei Yang and Xiao Yan both smiled, clasped their fists, and said, "Many thanks, Elder Xuan."
After a bit more conversation, Wei Yang and the others got up to take their leave.
"For now, take a good rest. As soon as we get definite information, I’ll notify you imdiately." Xuan Yi stood to see them off, speaking gently.
Wei Yang and Xiao Yan smiled, nodded again to thank her, and then departed.
Watching their departing backs, Xuan Yi let out a soft sigh. She too wished she could personally take action, but as one of the giants of the Pill Tower, she could not act willfully.
That was the way of a great power. Many matters were linked together, and one wrong move could affect everything. It wasn’t possible to act according to one’s personal will.
On the road back to their residence.
"Brother Wei, it’s not just us. There are other forces we can call on." Xiao Yan spoke as he tightened his grip, and a jade token appeared in his hand.
He explained that this was sothing he had received when he first t Feng Zun Zhe, who had given it to him as a communication token.
Now, it was about ti to summon him. When all their manpower gathered, and once they obtained definite intelligence, they could launch directly and rescue Yao Lao.
Wei Yang nodded.
Facing Hall of Souls, he too dared not show the slightest carelessness. Any extra bit of strength was a good thing.
"Master, don’t worry. Soon, Brother Wei and I will co to save you."
Xiao Yan lifted his head, took in a deep breath, and in his pitch-black eyes flashed a chilling murderous intent.
The pain and tornt that Hall of Souls had inflicted on his clan and his master, he would repay a hundredfold. Now that he had beco a Dou Zun, he finally had so confidence to face Hall of Souls!
Crack~
As killing intent surged in his heart, Xiao Yan clenched his hand, and the jade token shattered into powder.
