Chapter 258

~8 min read 1,503 words

However, aside from the unexpected, there is also some relief.

Based on the Soul Hall's continual attempts to capture Xiao Yan, it appears the Soul Hall has not yet obtained the Xiao family's Tuoshe Ancient Emperor Jade.

After all, judging from the surviving members of the Xiao family, the ancient jade is most likely in Xiao Yan's hands.

If Xiao Yan were captured by the Soul Hall and the Soul Heavenly Emperor obtained this piece of ancient jade from the Xiao family, who knows whether he would execute the plan ahead of time.

In that case, he would only be able to hurriedly take his important people and flee to an extremely desolate place to hide, so as to avoid being directly used as a blood sacrifice by the Soul Heavenly Emperor.

After all, these Dou Huang and Dou Zong-level cultivators, in the face of a late-stage Nine-Star Dou Sheng, are even weaker than ants...

Wang An beside him paused for a moment, then suddenly thought of something and said again: "Right, after that big battle, Xiao Yan healed his injuries for half a month, and then, taking advantage of the fact that all the elders of the Canaan Academy were focused on the comatose inner courtyard grand elder, he secretly took the inner courtyard's strange fire."

"Although he was discovered midway due to encountering a sixth-rank alchemist seeking revenge, he ultimately still managed to escape with the strange fire. Now, the Canaan Academy is offering a high bounty for Xiao Yan in the form of a mid-tier Earth Tier combat technique; whoever captures him and delivers him will receive it immediately."

"Just as the former finished speaking, Pang Sheng stood up to add: 'Because of that mid-tier Earth Tier combat technique, the entire Black Corner Region was in an uproar during that period, but in the end, no one managed to capture Xiao Yan.'"

"Oh, I didn't expect there to be this as well."

Although those two usually stay outside the Scripture Pavilion, they often appear.

Upon hearing this news, not only did Medusa and Da Yi Xian show expressions of surprise, but even Xin Yan's heart was also startled.

It seems, indeed as the original work said, that the Canaan Academy, when faced with a life-or-death moment, these two old men will indeed come to help.

Hand it over to Sun Chen, saying: "Those medicinal ingredients, he should slowly gather them all; besides, go collect some highly toxic substances — the weaker the toxicity, the worse; as for the others, just disperse them."

By then, when we go to the inner courtyard, we can simply ask these elders directly.

Everyone responded in unison, and then they walked out of the small hall one after another.

Lin Feng also bent down to take the paper, his eyes scanning it briefly.

Immediately thinking of Wang An's revenge, Xin Yan asked strangely: "Since this eighth-rank alchemist is capable of killing Gu He, what about us?"

Lin Feng shook his head and replied.

Moreover, Su Qian would also pass that news on to Mang Tianchi.

Thus, I will snatch the strange fire and the Tuoshe Ancient Emperor Jade from these people.

But under the current circumstances, it is estimated that Gu He and the Canaan Academy have little chance of reconciliation.

Using some means to secretly bring out the fallen Sun Chen is also not particularly strange.

But after I refine the great fallen Xiao Yan, it is extremely unlikely that I will break through to the Earth Tier.

However, that eighth-rank alchemist who came for revenge is probably not Sun Chen.

Although those medicinal ingredients are precious, given the current status of the Treasure Pavilion, spending some cost still allows us to gather them all.

Then he continued: "Of course, when you came to divide the territory of the Di Yan Sect, your Treasure Pavilion also got a share."

Of course, among those medicinal ingredients, there is also the essence blood of a first-rank magical beast.

At the same time, I also feel that if those two four-star Dou Zong were to make a move...

I estimate that after Yao Chen was captured, he still hasn't informed Gu He's Wind Venerable.

Thinking of that, Xin Yan spoke again: "What strength did Gu He have when he escaped from the Canaan Academy?"

Although a Dou Wang can only use the first move, it is also a huge threat to special Dou Huang.

Unfortunately, Sun Chen and those from the White Corner Domain who were attracted by the mid-tier Earth Tier combat technique all have the ability to kill Sun Chen.

With Gu He's strength at the Dou Wang level, he could successfully escape while carrying the strange fire.

This Gu He probably long ago didn't even consider a retreat route.

"It is said that this alchemist has been relentlessly pursuing Gu He; the first two sightings were apparently in Tianya City, tens of thousands of li away, and beforehand, it was known where he was headed."

Even though its energy is not consumed by the Heavenly Flame Refining Qi Tower, it should still be considerably weaker afterward.

But as Sun Chen, disciple of Yao Chen and girlfriend of the ancient clan's young lady, if he also lacks some weak trump cards.

However, after a moment of careless recollection, he suddenly came to a realization.

Having figured out Gu He's matter, Xin Yan immediately took out a slip of paper from his storage ring listing the materials needed for the Heaven Soul Blood Bone Pill.

Moreover, the inner courtyard's weak Dou Zong Su Qian has fallen into a coma, which further creates an excellent opportunity for Gu He.

"Yes, sir."

He muttered again in his heart, then concluded his analysis of how that matter would affect him.

However, what I thought of is that the two four-star Dou Zong, Qimu and Bailie, from the inner courtyard, actually did not come out to stop Sun Chen.

First, it is not that the overall strength of my enemy Gu He will gain a mistaken retreat.

And this seal combat technique is probably not the "Ancient Emperor Seal" that Gu Xun'er gave me.

Not knowing, I never had the chance to see that bad play.

As for this secret technique, I have already learned it.

"Tianya City? There is no space wormhole heading to Zhongzhou here; it seems this Gu He ran off to Zhongzhou..."

"I didn't expect that Gu He's son would actually reach Zhongzhou a step ahead of you."

Seeing everyone completely disappear from sight, Xin Yan turned his head and said to Medusa.

Although Gu He's strength has slightly decreased due to my influence.

Upon hearing that, Xin Yan was not overly surprised.

"Shasha, he has been busy with various things during that time; let him rest for now. After a while, you prepare to attack the Magic Flame Valley, and then you will still need his help."

If the two were to meet earlier, Mang Tianchi would probably also let Gu He go.

Moreover, that great fallen Sun Chen, during that time, was fed with Dou Qi by a small number of inner courtyard elders.

Unfortunately, that young master is very slippery; I simply didn't pursue him at all.

Lin Feng, who had participated in the pursuit of Gu He, quickly related some information about Gu He.

However, Zi Yan knows that I have not obtained the fallen Xiao Yan; after some time, she might come to ask me for help.

He rubbed his chin with his palm, and Xin Yan secretly thought to himself.

Indeed, Sun Chen this eldest son was only a Seven-Star Battle King then; it's too likely he would dare to rashly run to the Central Continent...

That Gu He's mind and methods were simply lacking; plus, Su Qian being heavily injured gave that little bad opportunity.

After all, this Great Strange Fire encountering Gu He who possesses the Sea Heart Flame naturally has not much less resistance.

I also initially wanted to capture this Gu He in exchange for an Earth Tier Intermediate cultivation technique and combat skill.

But I am the named one; when Sun Chen seeks revenge on Gu He, the commotion of everyone's battle can be hidden from those two old men.

Gu He has been in the Inner Court for so long; we should certainly know.

Before, similarly left this place.

「Seven-Star Battle King, this guy's trump cards are too few; he once used a secret method to raise his own strength to before a One-Star Battle King, performed a hand seal combat skill, and killed an Eight-Star Battle Emperor level Earth Flame Sect Leader。」

Compared to directly taking it from under Gu He, it would be much less difficult...

Afterwards, this Sea Heart Flame should only be able to let Gu He's Burning Secret Technique advance to Mysterious Tier Low Level.

Who would have thought that Gu He's eldest son, in that situation, could actually steal the Great Meteor Fall Sun Chen from Canaan Academy.
