Chapter 623: The Three Big Shots Burning with Impatience

And just as Lin Feng and his companions, with Xiao Yan, headed to the Qingling City plaza for a "execution", the three big shots of the Xiao Dan Tower on the other side were rather troubled.

Not long ago, the soul of the Wind Venerable ran to the Xiao Dan Tower, went through some applications, and after seeing them, immediately recounted their failure.

And the three of them, upon hearing the news, could not accept that Xiao Yan's operation would actually fail.

Especially Xuan Kongzi and Tian Leizi; when they heard the news, they were struck like by lightning and froze on the spot.

At the same time, the two were extremely anxious.

Of course, compared with Xuan Yi, who was eager to rescue Xiao Yan.

What they were frantic about was whether that fellow Xiao Yan would betray them!

Thus, Xuan Kongzi and Tian Leizi, upon learning of Xiao Yan's trouble, immediately set aside their duties and began the rescue.

After all, if Xiao Yan couldn't bear the pressure and spilled the beans, the fun would be over.

Among the three big shots, Tian Leizi was the most depressed.

Because his relationship with Yao Chen wasn't very good.

The main reason he agreed was largely due to Xuan Yi and Xuan Kongzi's proposal.

Originally he thought there were four strong ones: one four‑star Dou Zun, two six‑star Dou Zun, and one seven‑star Dou Zun.

To besiege Lin Feng's party, whose strongest combat power was only an initial Dou Zun, would surely be a walkover.

But they didn't expect it would backfire.

Know that the three of them, to ensure absolute safety, had already estimated Lin Feng's group's strength to the utmost.

The three Dou Zun that Xiao Yan was to summon had none below six stars.

If he had known in advance how powerful Lin Feng's party was.

No matter what Xuan Yi and Xuan Kongzi said, Tian Leizi would not take part.

But now that this happened, Tian Leizi has no choice but to keep going down the same road.

Because earlier Xiao Yan had also given the three big shots a soul jade pendant.

Therefore, the three big shots could know that Xiao Yan now had no life‑threatening concerns.

And the now‑calm three big shots quickly devised a strategy to rescue Xiao Yan.

Since Xiao Yan carries Xuan Yi's spatial jade tablet, she is responsible for following its location to find him.

Using the Xiao Dan Tower's name, they will rescue the former from Lin Feng's grasp.

And Tian Leizi is tasked with going to the Eastern Region to see if he can contact Xiao Yan's little girlfriend.

If Xiao Yan's ambush on Lin Feng isn't covered up, they will rely on his little girlfriend.

In the end, the Xiao Dan Tower will most likely, out of fear of the Ancient Clan, dare not kill Xiao Yan.

At most, like that Soul Void Master, they will expel Xiao Yan from the Xiao Dan Tower.

Thus Xiao Yan's life would be saved.

As for Xuan Kongzi, he is responsible for guarding outside the Xiao Dan Tower.

To prevent Xiao Yan's spatial jade tablet from being abandoned, Xuan Yi would be left empty‑handed.

If he sees Lin Feng grabbing Xiao Yan back to the Xiao Dan Tower, he will intercept him immediately.

Then he will threaten and entice Lin Feng, forcing him to settle privately, release Xiao Yan, and promise not to spread the matter.

As for the battle that was witnessed, they will say the two sides clashed over a verbal spat.

Then the youths, being impulsive, foolishly started fighting.

Even if later someone guessed it was wrong, both Lin Feng and Xiao Yan would say so, making further pursuit impossible.

At most, Xiao Yan would just be ostracized inside the Xiao Dan Tower.

But relying on the items Yao Chen left behind, plus support from the Ancient Clan's young lady, Xiao Yan will not lack cultivation resources.

The central plaza of Qingling City, being the entrance and exit of the city's Space Wormhole.

Moreover, here lies a Space Wormhole leading to Sacred Dan City.

Among cultivators heading to Sacred Dan City, almost a quarter pass through here.

Thus, driven by Sacred Dan City, Qingling City has become extremely prosperous.

And on this central plaza, spanning dozens of miles, the multicolored silhouettes of alchemists almost dazzle the eyes.

Thousands of alchemists, plus countless servants and many cultivators seeking medicine in Sacred Dan City.

Even though Qingling City widens the plaza as much as possible, it remains jammed daily.

Yet as everyone shoved and scrambled toward the Space Wormhole, a young man in blue robes, dragging a youngster bound by Dou Qi like a rice dumpling, and accompanied by a woman in white, arrived over the plaza.

And the three were naturally Lin Feng, Xiao Yan, and Xiao Yixian.

The moment the three appeared, they instantly drew the gaze of most onlookers.

"Who is that? Doesn't Qingling City forbid flying?"

"Probably these people were born in some back‑alley and just came to this Dan realm today."

"Sigh, it's a pity for that white‑clothed woman—so beautiful, yet she'll soon be killed by Qingling City's strongmen as a warning."

"You're brain‑dead, right? By your logic, aren't we just monkeys?"

"Hehe, slip of the tongue."

Seeing the few above, they swaggered in like that.

In the massive crowd below, many couldn't help turning to discuss with those beside them.

However, Lin Feng above paid no heed to the crowd's chatter.

He simply waved his palm, tossing the Dou Qi‑bound Xiao Yan to his side.

And Xiao Yan, at this moment, clearly anticipated something.

He frantically twisted wildly, trying to escape Lin Feng's control.

He had, for the past two days, been treating Lin Feng kindly.

He was simply buying time until the Wind Venerable summons the three heads of Dan Tower.

Now that he has been brought here by Lin Feng, yet the three heads of Dan Tower have not arrived, could he not be anxious?

"Gentlemen, this youngster is named Xiao Yan, a disciple of Dan Tower. However, out of jealousy—since I, also a Dan Tower disciple, possess unusual fire, and he himself already has unusual fire—he actually summoned an outsider, and while I was away, ambushed and killed me midway, tarnishing the reputation of my Dan Tower."

Lin Feng also knows that after this incident, the fact that he possesses unusual fire will most likely spread.

Therefore, he simply didn't bother to hide it and directly revealed that he harbors unusual fire.

Of course, the fact that he can absorb many kinds of unusual fire must not be disclosed.

"Whoa!"

Upon hearing Lin Feng's words, the tens of thousands below instantly erupted in astonished shouts.

The voices converged, soaring to the heavens in an instant.

On the Dou Qi Continent, though the strong are revered and the weak are prey.

Regarding robbery, among ten strong ones, eleven have done it.

It may be robbing one's own kind, or other races.

In short, strong ones who have cultivated to extremely high realms, except for those who rely on special talents to forcefully ascend.

The rest, for the most part, emerge from endless battles.
