"Go ahead and scream, it won't do you any good, your Soul Clan is already finished!"
Xiao Wu sneered, then produced a jet-black jade bottle from his Storage Ring.
"Look, this is the technology your Soul Clan used to collect souls back then. Now, it all belongs to our Xiao Clan, hehe!"
The old woman's face displayed a look of despair as she gazed at the black jade bottle.
Ignoring her wretched expression, Xiao Wu cackled and absorbed her soul into the jade bottle.
Yun Yun and her disciple, who were watching from a distance, couldn't help but shiver.
A Nine-Star Dou Venerate's soul was just collected by the burly old man by Xiao Yan's side. They had also heard clearly what the old woman had just said.
"Half-Saints!" The two old men behind Xiao Yan were actually experts at the Half-Saint level.
The strongest individuals in the Jia Ma Empire were only at the Dou Emperor level, and those experts were nearly three major ranks away from the Half-Saint level.
Although the two weren't true Dou Saints, it was clear that they were already at the peak of the continent's power. What was even more frightening was that these two were merely Xiao Yan's protectors.
This meant there was definitely a true Dou Saint-level expert behind Xiao Yan.
Looks like I won't have a chance to surpass him in this lifetime. Despair welled up in Nalan Yanran's heart.
"No wonder he could so easily produce a Breakthrough Ancestor Pill." Yun Yun, who was beside her, also forced a bitter smile.
Ignoring the complex expressions on the two beauties' faces, Xiao Yan walked over to the pile of shattered World Soul Stone fragments and picked up the dim white light cluster scattered on the ground.
"Save me, save me."
A weak voice came from the white light.
Hearing this, Xiao Yan took out a drop of crystal-clear liquid from his Storage Ring.
This was Soul Nourishing Liquid, unique to the Soul Nourishing Holy Land of the Xiao Clan. A single drop was worth the equivalent of a sixth-grade pill.
The moment the crystal liquid appeared, everyone around felt a wave of comfort in their souls. The white light even faintly exuded a desire. Without hesitation, Xiao Yan dripped the liquid into the white light.
As soon as the crystal liquid dripped into the white light, it brightened the dim light a bit.
"Thank you." The weak soul fluctuation came, and the white light lost its fluctuations.
Apparently, it had already begun to slowly refine this drop of Soul Nourishing Liquid.
"Yanran, does your family still have a Seven-Colored Phantasmal Spirit Saliva?" Xiao Yan looked at Nalan Yanran.
"Yes," Nalan Yanran nodded slightly.
"Three days from now, bring the Seven-Colored Phantasmal Spirit Saliva to the Mite'er Family to find me."
"Ah, okay," Nalan Yanran nodded blankly.
Xiao Yan glanced at the beautiful Yun Yun again.
"After I've initially repaired some of Yun Potian's soul, I'll have Yanran bring it back."
"Thank you," Yun Yun looked at Xiao Yan with a complicated expression.
She understood that she already owed this young man an unknown amount.
"Don't mention it," Xiao Yan suddenly revealed his signature mischievous grin. "I'll be waiting for the day you willingly offer yourself to me."
"You!" Yun Yun's gratitude instantly turned to anger, especially being flirted with in front of Nalan Yanran, causing a blush to appear on her jade-like face.
"Two Breakthrough Ancestor Pills should be enough for Yun Shan to break through to Dou Ancestor. If it's not enough, come back and ask me again." Xiao Yan looked at Yun Yun, a warm smile on his face.
Thinking of the two Breakthrough Ancestor Pills in her hand, a trace of melancholy reappeared on Yun Yun's face.
"I owe you, and I'm afraid it will be difficult to repay."
"Just offering yourself would be enough." Xiao Yan chuckled, "Or how about a kiss to pay the interest first?"
Yun Yun glanced at her precious disciple beside her.
"Is it appropriate to say these things in front of Yanran?"
"Oh, then should Yanran also give a kiss?" Xiao Yan looked at Nalan Yanran with a smile.
"Get lost." The master and disciple said in unison.
"Sigh, women…" Xiao Yan shook his head, and actually turned and left.
Seeing Xiao Yan turn and leave, the Civil and Martial Saints also abruptly vanished into the space.
Watching the young man who had waved his wings and left this place, the master and disciple's pretty faces became dejected again.
"Teacher."
"What is it?"
"What kind of person do you think Xiao Yan is?"
"I don't know."
Yun Yun shook her head, bewildered, but in her mind, she thought of the young man's mischievous smile again.
Nalan Yanran, watching her teacher's expression, felt a strange bitterness in her heart.
Unknowingly, the figure of that young man had already been imprinted in her heart. Nalan Yanran didn't know if she liked him, but it would be hard to forget him.
The sun set over the western mountains, and a ray of golden-red sunlight shone on the weed-covered cave entrance. Yun Yun's figure appeared there.
She glanced at the exquisite Jade Cold Box in her hand, then gently walked into the cave.
"Yun'er, how did the matter go?" An old voice sounded, and Yun Yun looked at the old man in front of her, who looked like a withered tree.
The old man no longer had the high spirits of the former Sect Leader of the Yunlan Sect. Only a longing for life remained in his cloudy old eyes.
Looking at the mentor who had raised her, Yun Yun couldn't help but feel a slight ache in her heart.
Time was a blade, cutting down countless heroes. Even Dou Emperor experts gradually disappeared into this continent over the long years.
"Teacher, I obtained a Breakthrough Ancestor Pill from Xiao Yan." Yun Yun composed herself, took out the Jade Cold Box, and gently opened it.
As she opened it, an alluring fragrance of the pill spread throughout the entire cave dwelling.
Looking at the pill, which was the size of a longan, a glint finally appeared in Yun Shan's cloudy old eyes.
A Breakthrough Ancestor Pill could increase the chances of breaking through to Dou Ancestor by ten percent. Moreover, even if the breakthrough failed, the user would still retain their previous strength.
For Yun Shan, whose vitality was already weak, this was simply a life-saving straw.
"Good, good." He smiled weakly, and looked at his disciple with satisfaction.
"You have been wronged for the teacher."
"Teacher has been so kind to me. It is already this disciple's fortune to be able to show some filial piety for teacher." Yun Yun shook her head.
"That kid didn't touch you?" Yun Shan suddenly frowned. He was a cunning old fox, and he could tell from Yun Yun's expression that she didn't seem to have been wronged.
"Teacher, don't ask these questions." Yun Yun's face showed a complex expression. "Teacher should quickly take this Breakthrough Ancestor Pill and break through."
After saying this, she handed the Breakthrough Ancestor Pill to Yun Shan and then bowed and left.
"This young master of a great clan, actually didn't touch Yun'er?" Looking at Yun Yun's departing back, Yun Shan's eyes revealed a hint of doubt and unwillingness.
"This won't do. If I don't get close to this young master of a great clan, how can I move towards even greater strength? And how can the Yunlan Sect become strong?" Yun Shan shook his head.
Immediately, he looked at the Breakthrough Ancestor Pill in front of him, which was the size of a dragon eye. A fiery look appeared in his cloudy old eyes, and a smile appeared on his lips, which then quickly widened.
"Heaven hasn't forsaken me, heaven hasn't forsaken me!"
Muttering a few words, he stretched out his old hand, grabbed the Breakthrough Ancestor Pill, and put it in his mouth.
