Chapter 191 - The Blood-Tracking Method, Head of the Zhang Family

The Azure Lotus Core Flame was stolen?

At that moment, Xiao Yan's expression turned extremely dark. This flame, which should have belonged to him, had been intercepted by someone else?Damn it—this was practically courting death.

"Let me find out who did this. Even the good ones will get a taste of my strength, and the bad ones will be crushed to dust!"

Xiao Yan's rear molars grated audibly.

Seeing Xiao Yan like this, Qinglin shivered all over, feeling that the young master who had seemed so gentle earlier had suddenly become terrifying.

After a while, the gloom on Xiao Yan's face lessened. He once again held Qinglin and flew out of the azure barrier.

Once outside the barrier, Xiao Yan glanced at the massive azure barrier, dozens of zhang in diameter, and spoke with his spirit to the two elders, Wen and Wu:"Elder Wen, collect the rootstock of this Azure Lotus. Return it to the clan for continued cultivation. Perhaps in a thousand years, another Azure Lotus Core Flame will emerge."

"Yes, Young Master."

Behind Xiao Yan, Xiao Wen smiled faintly and waved his hand. The entire azure barrier was absorbed into his spatial array.

At their level, there was no longer a need to rely on storage rings; by using spatial force, even a small personal space could be carried.

An Azure Lotus Core Flame held significant cultivation value. Wasting it would be inconsistent with Xiao Yan's diligent and frugal nature.

Watching the rootstock being stored, Xiao Yan showed a trace of helplessness, then finally retraced his path back.

Meanwhile, Qinglin in his arms showed shock once more, amazed at what divine ability the young master possessed to be able to collect such a thing.

Once back on shore, Xiao Yan took a deep breath to dispel the frustration in his heart and finally focused on the corpse of the twin-headed Fire Spirit Snake.

However, as he scanned the corpse with his soul force again, he suddenly shivered and stepped closer.

Though the Fire Spirit Snake's corpse had already been somewhat destroyed, two broken fangs above its gaping maw still held traces of blood.

This blood was human blood.

Xiao Yan, proficient in various alchemy ingredients, revealed a trace of joy on his face.

The essence blood of magical beasts was often a key ingredient for alchemy, and a skilled alchemist could easily discern the energy components within the blood.

Clearly, the blood on these broken fangs did not belong to the twin-headed Fire Spirit Snake itself.

Xiao Yan's palm suddenly emitted a terrifying suction, gathering all the blood from the fangs together.

The quantity was small and already dried, but fortunately, the fundamental components remained intact.

Given the extreme temperatures of this magma world, it would likely lose efficacy within a year, indicating that the twin-headed Fire Spirit Snake had not been dead for long.

Looking at the small clump of dried blood powder in his fingers, Xiao Yan's lips curved into a sinister smile.

"Elder Wen, I remember that the Soul Clan once had a Blood-Tracking Method, right?" Xiao Yan said with a faint smile.

"That's correct, Young Master. I shall pass the Blood-Tracking Method to you now."

Upon hearing this, Xiao Wen suddenly appeared in the magma world. With a gentle tap of his finger on Xiao Yan's brow, a piece of information was transmitted directly into Xiao Yan's mind. Qinglin, witnessing the elder appear and vanish out of nowhere, showed a look of bewilderment.

Since meeting this young master, the unexpected had become increasingly common, though Qinglin had long since grown accustomed to such impossibilities.

With the mysterious young master, such extraordinary things seemed entirely natural.

After receiving the Blood-Tracking Method from Xiao Wen, Xiao Yan's face broke into a smile.

"Heh heh, dare to steal my Azure Lotus Core Flame? Let me teach you a lesson."

Thinking this, Xiao Yan took out a drop of Nourishing Soul Liquid and mixed the blood powder into it.

The Blood-Tracking Method required a soul-attribute treasure as support and used the target's blood to locate them.

This technique had once been used by the Soul Clan to hunt enemies. After the Soul Clan's destruction, it became a weapon of the Xiao Clan.

However, in the current era, the Xiao Clan had few real enemies. Even those that existed had little chance of escape, so few were taught the Blood-Tracking Method.

Fortunately, Xiao Wen, a learned Half-Saint, possessed a vast reservoir of knowledge.

Xiao Wu did not, though such a fact could not be spoken aloud—respect for elders was required.

Of course, the Blood-Tracking Method had limitations. If the target was over a thousand li away, its effect weakened sharply. Beyond ten thousand li, it could not sense the target at all.

Fortunately, after Xiao Yan applied the Blood-Tracking Method, the drop of Nourishing Soul Liquid, now dark red from the blood powder, emitted a faint pulse.

Though weak, it provided Xiao Yan with a rough direction.

Quickly, Xiao Yan followed that direction.

The blazing sun hung high, roasting the entire Tagel Desert, and within this scorching, barren land, a black-clothed youth held a girl in his arms as he walked through the void.

Every step spanned hundreds of zhang, and within a short incense stick's time, they had traversed over a thousand li.

As the thousand li passed, the drop of blood-infused Nourishing Soul Liquid in his hand responded more clearly to the distant target.

Continuing this way, Xiao Yan pressed on. Suddenly, the liquid quivered slightly, gradually forming the shape of an arrow.

Xiao Yan then adjusted his path toward the indicated direction. As he drew closer, the liquid's arrow shape became more pronounced.

After a while, a city, considered prosperous in the Gama Empire, appeared before him.

Seeing the characters "Yancheng" carved on the grand city, Xiao Yan's expression shifted to one of puzzlement.

The name seemed familiar somehow.

Countless memories of the imperial capital, of Yafei and Yaoye, flashed through his mind, until suddenly a name echoed—one that should have no connection with the world he was in.

"Mo Family!"

"Could it be that this Azure Lotus Core Flame was taken by the Mo Family?"

Thinking this, a strange expression crossed Xiao Yan's face.

Villains are destined to be villains, and failures are destined to fail.

With this in mind, he floated above Yancheng. As his soul force swept the city,

a faint, hidden aura slowly appeared—though extremely concealed, it was detectable by Xiao Yan.

"The Azure Lotus Core Flame is indeed here." A cold smile curved Xiao Yan's lips, but soon, a trace of surprise appeared.

Within Yancheng, there was the aura of a Dou Huang.

Through his soul perception, Xiao Yan saw that this Dou Huang was in a secret chamber, conversing with a middle-aged man. The topic of their conversation: the Azure Lotus Core Flame.

Then, Xiao Yan's previously calm pupils suddenly constricted.

For the middle-aged man was none other than the head of the Zhang family from Wutan City!
