"Hmm, what you said makes sense; I'll send her out of Sacred Dan City in a moment."

Hearing that, Lin Feng nodded in agreement and then said calmly.

"???"

Hearing the former's words, Xiao Yan was instantly thrown off.

He had previously thought that after he spoke, Lin Feng would stubbornly refuse to admit it.

He also imagined the former would produce something and ask him to keep it secret.

But he never expected that as soon as he opened his mouth, the former would act as if intending to send that white‑clad woman out of Sacred Dan City.

In this situation, he didn't even know how to continue speaking.

However, thinking that if the other side sends that white‑clad woman away, he would have a chance to kill her on the road.

While cutting off the other's arm, he could also obtain the exotic fire on the white‑clad woman's body.

Then Xiao Yan, with a look of concern for Sacred Dan City, said satisfied, "Since you're willing to send the Calamity Poison Body away, removing its potential threat to Sacred Dan City, I have nothing more to say. I just hope you won't say one thing and do another."

As he spoke, Xiao Yan glanced at Lin Feng with a look of worry for the nation and its people.

"No problem. When you leave in a moment, I'll summon a contact I have among the Tai Xu Ancient Dragon Clan and have Xian Er stay in their little world for a while. That way, even if her constitution has issues, it won't harm Sacred Dan City at all."

After speaking, Lin Feng looked toward the Xiao Yixian beside him and asked, "Xian Er, what do you think?"

"No problem; I think that place is fine, I'll stay there for a few decades and see."

Xiao Yixian, knowing the former was deliberately provoking Xiao Yan, replied in full cooperation.

"What, go live in the Tai Xu Ancient Dragon Clan's little world?!"

Hearing Lin Feng's proposal, Xiao Yan's body suddenly stiffened, followed by a startled exclamation.

If that white‑clad woman goes to the Tai Xu Ancient Dragon Clan's little world, how could he strike her?

After all, he doesn't yet have the ability to locate the coordinates of that little world.

"Rest assured, my wife lives there; she could never affect Sacred Dan City, so you needn't be so terrified."

Seeing Xiao Yan become at a loss after hearing his words, Lin Feng couldn't help but chuckle inwardly a few times.

He had long since guessed the former's intention.

After all, Xiao Yan gave up the extortion idea so quickly, so he must have other schemes in mind.

Among the many possibilities, Lin Feng thought the most likely was that Xiao Yan intended to assassinate Xiao Yixian and seize the exotic fire.

Because aside from the exotic fire, Lin Feng couldn't think of anything else on Xiao Yixian that would make the other so covetous.

Nonetheless, Lin Feng was pleased, while Xiao Yan wore a constipated expression.

If Lin Feng refused to send that white‑clad woman out of Sacred Dan City, he could still pretend not to know that the other's Calamity Poison Body had already been sealed.

Then, exploiting the world's fear of the Calamity Poison Body, he could demand hush‑money from Lin Feng or force that white‑clad woman to leave.

But now, as soon as he spoke, the other agreed to reside in the Tai Xu Ancient Dragon Clan's territory.

In this situation, what should he say?

"Alright, the matter is settled. If you have nothing else, go back now; I don't have time to chat with an enemy who constantly obsesses over my exotic fire."

Seeing that Xiao Yan hadn't spoken for a long while, Lin Feng immediately issued a dismissal order.

Hearing that, Xiao Yan first furrowed his brows.

Realizing his plan to blackmail using the other's wife as a Calamity Poison Body had failed.

He thought briefly, then recalled another piece of information; his expression relaxed again as he smiled, "Hehe, sometimes I really envy your romantic luck. From what I gather, that Heavenly Demon Phoenix Clan woman beside you seems to have a complicated relationship with you!"

At this point, Xiao Yan added a hint of threat, "However, based on the information I've obtained, the Heavenly Demon Phoenix Clan seems very protective of its bloodline. Your actions might anger their strong members, prompting them to send someone to deal with this."

"What is that compared to when you, relying only on your Dou King strength, stole the Falling Heart Flame from Canaan Academy? This is trivial. Moreover, you, a capable person, have also absorbed Sea‑Heart Flame, Profound Yellow Flame, and Volcano Stone Flame."

Hearing the former's threat, Lin Feng said calmly, "Compared to you, who has absorbed four exotic fires and is still lively, I don't think what I've done matters much."

Because he knows Xiao Yan is already preparing to rescue Yao Chen.

Not wanting unnecessary trouble, he didn't mention the burning technique now, but only stated that the other possesses several exotic fires.

Even so, upon hearing the other recount his deeds at Canaan Academy and the secret of possessing four exotic fires, his heart suddenly sank.

At this moment, he realized clearly that his plan to use Feng Qinger to threaten the former over the Heavenly Demon Phoenix Clan had fallen apart.

"This guy is really too hard to deal with."

Thinking of Lin Feng's similarly veiled threatening tone, Xiao Yan clenched his teeth, his mind instantly filled with helplessness.

Even if he feels resentful now, he dare not ignore the other's threat and expose each other's secrets.

After all, he is now at odds with the Soul Hall and has lost the protection of Dan Tower.

If it becomes known that he harbors four exotic fires, he fears that in the next moment a multitude of strong cultivators will come to snatch the exotic fires from his hands.

And also the secret that he can absorb four exotic fires without any conflict.

"Could it be that this time he'll have to return empty‑handed?"

Seeing that the two pieces of information he offered failed to frighten the other, Xiao Yan thought helplessly.

"Wait, how did I forget that!"

Recalling something his teacher once told him, Xiao Yan clenched his teeth and decided to give it a try.

Although he doesn't know the exact details, perhaps it might actually have some effect.

Then Xiao Yan spoke again, "Speaking of the Calamity Poison Body, I recall my teacher once told me that when he was young, he traveled to many places."

"Once, by accident, he stumbled upon a strongman's tomb that also contained a Calamity Poison Body. Supposedly, the owner of that Calamity Poison Body had reached the Half Saint Realm in life!"

At that point, Xiao Yan deliberately paused, his peripheral gaze quietly scanning Lin Feng and Xiao Yixian's expressions.

Upon hearing his words, Xiao Yixian's beautiful eyes instantly flashed with curiosity.

Clearly, she was intrigued by his remark.

As for Lin Feng, after hearing Xiao Yan mention this, he began to flip through it in his mind.

He quickly searched the original plot he knew for any clues.
