Chapter 1: Explanation of the Xiao Clan's Strength in This Book

Explanation of the Xiao Clan's strength in this book:

Some readers are interested in the current strength level of the Xiao Clan, so the author will explain it now.

As of now, excluding Xiao Han, the strongest member of the Xiao Clan is the Clan Leader Xiao Zhan, who is at the Dou Zun Peak of the Nine-Star level. In addition to him, the Xiao Clan has seven Elders who have reached the Dou Zun level, as well as two or three dispatched members who have reached the Dou Zun level.

Of course, these are not important and basically have no screen time.

There is also the former Clan Leader Xiao Lin, who is also at the Dou Zun level; his whereabouts will be revealed in later chapters, so readers need not worry.

As for the lower levels, the author will not mention them; there is no need.

There is also the group of members the Xiao Clan sent to the Central Plains; these will all be discussed later.

Besides the hard power of cultivation, there is also the soft power of Alchemists.

Currently, the highest-ranked Alchemist in the Xiao Clan is Eighth Grade, and there are also two Seventh Grade ones. The author will not account for Sixth Grade and below; this belongs to the background and can be glossed over later.

This is the true strength, while the strength the Xiao Clan currently displays is as follows:

One High-level Dou Zong Ancestor, and Clan Leader Xiao Zhan's displayed strength is Dou Emperor.

Three Dou Wang Elders, with levels below that ignored.

Furthermore, there are Xiao Yan's two older brothers who will appear later; their current strength is at the level of a two or three-star Dou Zong. Xiao Ding is displayed as a peak Dou Ling, and Xiao Li is in the Black-Corner Region at the Dou Wang level. These will have some screen time later, so I am mentioning it in advance.

Thank you to all the readers for your inquiries.
