A brief silence followed his words, even Yun Shan, who had just come out of seclusion, wore a look of shock.
"You are really... Ancestor Yun Potian!" Yun Shan's expression was serious, yet tinged with excitement.
"Indeed."
Yun Potian chuckled lightly, "I was trapped within the World Soul Stone for over five hundred years. I have your disciples and their disciples to thank for helping me escape."
Then, he turned to Yun Yun and Nalan Yanran, who couldn't fly yet.
"Now that I have returned to the Misty Cloud Sect, the lost cultivation techniques, battle skills, and various precious secret methods will all be restored. The Misty Cloud Sect shall reclaim its former glory."
Upon hearing this, both Yun Yun and Yun Shan, along with many other elders of the Misty Cloud Sect, wore looks of excitement.
"Our Misty Cloud Sect must rise!" Yun Shan's lips curved into a slight smile, which then widened.
"Misty Cloud Sect, rise!"
"Misty Cloud Sect, rise!"
Some elders were also flushed with excitement.
"Misty Cloud Sect, rise!" Nalan Yanran, at the foot of the mountain, also clenched her small fists.
Xiao Yan didn't know what kind of madness and excitement the Misty Cloud Sect had fallen into. He had already left the Mite'er Family and arrived at the imperial palace.
Compared to the Mite'er Family's luxurious and elegant style, the imperial palace's decor was solemn and imposing.
"Mr. Xiao Yan, you've finally arrived."
Looking at the black-robed youth who had come to the royal palace, a tall, slender woman was currently looking at Xiao Yan with a smile.
"Hehe, I didn't expect it to be Princess Yaoye herself who came to greet me."
Xiao Yan looked at the beautiful woman in front of him.
Today, Yaoye was wearing a black, form-fitting court gown, adorned with delicate and precious gemstones, which accentuated her tall and elegant figure.
Her face was equally alluring, but it possessed a completely different temperament from Ya Fei.
If Ya Fei was a mature and charming career woman, then Yaoye was like a female general who had temporarily retreated from the battlefield, with a hint of an empress's aura.
Hmm, if this Yaoye becomes the empress of the Jia Ma Empire in the future, wouldn't it be possible to do a 'riding the dragon robe' scene? (ω)
Some chaotic thoughts popped into Xiao Yan's head again.
"Who else would be more suitable to accompany a distinguished guest like Mr. Xiao Yan?" Yaoye's long, beautiful eyes fixed on Xiao Yan, seeming to hold a certain allure.
The two walked side by side, and Xiao Yan could detect a subtle, deliberately applied fragrance on her. Fortunately, he found the scent quite pleasant.
Meanwhile, Yaoye also caught a whiff of a unique fragrance emanating from Xiao Yan.
They couldn't help but exchange a glance.
You flirt! The same thought echoed in both their minds, and they continued walking forward in perfect synchronization.
The Jia Ma Empire's imperial palace was quite expansive. After navigating through the intricate corridors, Xiao Yan finally saw Jia Xingtian waiting for him on an open-air platform.
"Mr. Xiao Yan, you've finally arrived." Seeing Xiao Yan, Jia Xingtian greeted him with a smile.
"Haha, Elder Jia is too polite." Xiao Yan surveyed the table of fine wines and delicacies before him, clearly the most precious ingredients the Jia Ma Empire had to offer.
If I brought Hun Xin over, he'd probably burst at the seams.
"Please, Mr. Xiao Yan, have a seat." Jia Xingtian gestured for Xiao Yan to sit, and Yaoye, being quite perceptive, poured the wine.
All three were old foxes. After sitting down, they didn't immediately get to the point. They chatted casually for a while before shifting the conversation to the Misty Cloud Sect.
"Mr. Xiao Yan, was it your doing that the old Sect Master of the Misty Cloud Sect, Yun Shan, successfully advanced to the Dou Ancestor realm today?" After a few rounds of drinks, Yaoye asked casually, a hint of alluring redness on her face.
"Oh ho, the main event has arrived." Xiao Yan smiled faintly. "Indeed, it was I who gave Yun Shan a Breaking Ancestor Pill that allowed him to break through to Dou Ancestor."
At these words, he saw Jia Xingtian's wine cup tremble slightly in his hand.
Seeing this, Xiao Yan simply smiled and tapped his fingers lightly on the table. A small, palm-sized cold jade box then appeared on the table.
"Old Jia, you and I both know the purpose of tonight's dinner. I won't beat around the bush. Here is a Breaking Ancestor Pill. With your foundation, which has been dormant at the peak of Dou Emperor for many years, you should have a good chance of breaking through with just one."
Hearing this, Jia Xingtian's body couldn't help but tremble slightly.
"Mr. Xiao Yan is so generous, doesn't he have any requests?" Having lived as long as he had, he naturally didn't believe in freebies.
"Requests?" Xiao Yan smiled slightly, his gaze sweeping over Yaoye.
Being stared at like that by Xiao Yan, even the composed Yaoye couldn't help but blush slightly.
"I do have some requests, or rather, suggestions." Xiao Yan said with a smile, while Yaoye became a bit uneasy.
"I hope to establish an alliance that can cover the Jia Ma Empire and even the surrounding imperial powers." Xiao Yan's voice came, causing both Jia Xingtian and Yaoye to show a hint of shock.
"An alliance?"
"That's right." Xiao Yan nodded and said, "Old Jia, don't you think the Jia Ma Empire and even the surrounding imperial powers are too weak?"
"Weak?" Jia Xingtian was taken aback, a wry smile appearing on his face.
"These empires, sects, and even the Serpent-People Tribe in the distance, the strongest experts they possess are only at the Dou Ancestor level. In the Jia Ma Empire, a Dou Emperor can pretty much do as they please.
With only a few of these cats and kittens, they're nothing when they encounter some truly powerful forces."
Hearing Xiao Yan's words, Jia Xingtian and Yaoye both showed a hint of embarrassment.
Experts at the Dou Ancestor and Dou Emperor levels, who could already stand at the peak of an empire, were being called "cats and kittens." If those Dou King experts heard this, they'd probably want to bash their heads in.
"Hehe, Old Jia, whether you agree with this decision or not, this Breaking Ancestor Pill is considered a gift from me to the Jia Ma Empire."
Xiao Yan presented the jade box to Jia Xingtian, then added,
"However, I must remind you that in the future, not only will the Misty Cloud Sect, the Mite'er Family, the Nalan Family, and even the neighboring Serpent-People Tribe, but also one Dou Ancestor expert after another will appear."
After speaking, Xiao Yan's expression carried a hint of domineering, and he said calmly, "I will establish a new force in this land, and this force will change the entire landscape of the Northwest Continent!"
That statement of his sounded like a fantasy to others, but to the two people in front of him who knew Xiao Yan's strength, it was actually possible.
Gazing at the domineering and confident expression on Xiao Yan's young face, a trace of barely perceptible brilliance flashed in Yaoye's beautiful eyes.
Jia Xingtian spoke less, seemingly contemplating Xiao Yan's words, but Yaoye's expression remained unchanged.
"Mr. Xiao Yan, since it's getting late, why don't we go to Yaoye's place and have a seat? I have a few Dou Techniques here, and I'd like to ask for your guidance."
After the banquet, Yaoye looked at Xiao Yan with a smile.
This woman wants to sleep with me?
Xiao Yan's heart stirred.
"This young master is so pure and virtuous, a true gentleman, how could I be seduced by a mere imperial princess."
A cold sneer formed in his heart, but he plastered a warm smile on his face.
"Alright!"
