Chapter 107: Returning to Langya Pavilion

"Boom—"

Accompanied by a violent tremor, under the witness of Xiao Han and the other two, this seal ruin that had existed for tens of thousands of years gradually collapsed, and countless spatial rifts swallowed this place of long history.

Thunder Spirit casually swiped in the air, and a pitch-black rift over a thousand feet long appeared, absorbing all the violent energy fluctuations caused by the collapse of the ruins, before vanishing without a trace.

"Let's go!" Xiao Han said.

Thunder Spirit took a deep look at this place where he had stayed for tens of thousands of years, his expression complex, then his face returned to calm, and he nodded, saying: "Mm."

"That... Huang'er, listen to my explanation!" Xiao Han was currently looking with panic at the beautiful woman walking toward him with a blank expression, retreating repeatedly, his hands waving unconsciously in front of his chest.

At this moment, silence was more eloquent than words; Yi Huang's silent appearance was the most terrifying of all.

Xiao Han indicated that he was feeling very panicked inside; as soon as they returned to Langya Pavilion, the three of them were blocked by Yi Huang, and that unloyal guy Ye Jianxin had dragged Thunder Spirit away to run off from the start.

The excuse was to guide the Guest Elder, introduce the local customs of Langya Pavilion, and help him better integrate into the big family of Langya Pavilion.

"Speak..." Yi Huang finally stopped her steps, giving Xiao Han a chance, but before the latter could heave a sigh of relief, Yi Huang threw out another sentence that made him shudder.

"If you can't explain it well, then we're finished; you continue being your Ice Saint, and I'll remain the Vice Pavilion Master of Langya Pavilion, and we shall mind our own business." Speaking to the end, Yi Huang's voice seemed to carry a hint of a sob.

It was fine that the Xiao Han of the past liked to run around, but he always knew his limits and wouldn't encounter any troublesome enemies, and it was always a case of danger followed by safety. But now he was actually so reckless; with the strength of a Seven-Star Dou Saint, he dared to provoke an enemy who was a Nine-Star Dou Sheng, this was simply courting death!

"This..." Xiao Han was now also stammering, unable to say anything. If Yi Huang really wanted to beat him up, Xiao Han might have been able to use sweet talk or make a joke to muddle through it.

But it was precisely these words that left him at a loss, and for a moment he didn't know what to say. This time, Yi Huang was likely truly angry to the extreme to have said such things.

Just like that, the situation fell into a brief silence.

"Oh? Can't say anything now?" Yi Huang's delicate eyebrows lifted slightly, and she said in a flat tone, just as she was about to turn and walk away.

Xiao Han's voice sounded from behind: "Huang'er, I am sorry this time."

Yi Huang looked back; at this moment, the former's expression carried an indescribable seriousness.

Perhaps feeling the other's sincerity, she parted her red lips slightly: "Will it happen again in the future?"

"Absolutely not." Xiao Han suddenly smiled, stepped forward, and hugged Yi Huang, causing the latter's cheeks to turn as red as sunset clouds, and she gave Xiao Han a playful, reproachful pat.

Yi Huang never really intended to pursue the matter with Xiao Han; it was just that what he did this time was too dangerous, and she wanted to give him a warning.

However, facts proved that she could never escape from this bastard's grasp; even just a sincere apology was enough to easily obtain her forgiveness.

"Then what do you plan to do in these coming years?" After the two shared a moment of intimacy, Yi Huang raised her head, looked straight at Xiao Han, and asked.

Things having reached this point, Xiao Han's ten years of time to recover his cultivation were definitely unavoidable; even with cultivation, it was impossible to shorten this process.

"I want to go to the Xiao Clan to take a look." Xiao Han was silent for a long time, and finally stated a destination.

"That's not bad." Yi Huang did not object; in fact, Xiao Han didn't have many good places to go.

On one hand, the news of Xiao Han's cultivation regression must not be spread, otherwise those omnipresent rats of the Soul Hall would likely hatch some evil schemes again.

Unless absolutely necessary, it was better to keep Thunder Spirit's strength hidden. Thus, the base camp of the Jia Ma Empire, which was managed by the Xiao Clan to be impenetrable, was naturally a secret and good place to go.

Furthermore, Xiao Han had been running between the Xiao Clan and the Central Plains all these years, or was in closed-door cultivation; this recovery period could be considered a vacation for him. It would also allow him to witness the rise of the Xiao Clan with his own eyes.

"When do you plan to go?" Yi Huang's bright eyes gazed at Xiao Han's profile, and for a moment she was actually a bit dazed.

"In these few days, after all, you and Lao Ye can handle the affairs within the Pavilion completely."

However, immediately after, Xiao Han seemed to have thought of something and said: "Huang'er, where is that little beast?"

"Can't you say something nice? Aren't you afraid that if that child Xiao Wu finds out about your current cultivation, he will take the opportunity to take revenge?" Yi Huang glared at Xiao Han.

This nickname "little beast" was clearly Xiao Han's nickname for his own precious Disciple. And what she said was not false.

If Xiao Wu really learned that Xiao Han's current cultivation was inferior to his, he would truly come to seek revenge under the guise of sparring. The former had received no shortage of beatings from the latter in the past.

However, regarding Xiao Han's question, Yi Huang did not hide it, and said indifferently: "I let him and that child Sheng Han go to attend the Ancient Clan's Adult Ceremony."

"Adult Ceremony?" Xiao Han muttered in confusion, "How come I didn't know about this." Was he too forgetful?

Xiao Han was not surprised at all that Langya Pavilion could receive an invitation to the Ancient Clan's Adult Ceremony; after all, Langya Pavilion was a sect with a true Dou Saint powerhouse sitting in command.

Even if the battle between Xiao Han and the Heavenly Venerable of the Soul Hall was unknown to others, they were still qualified to receive this invitation.

He was only curious as to why he didn't know when the invitation was received.

"How could you possibly know." Yi Huang suddenly straightened up from Xiao Han's embrace, tapped Xiao Han's head with her finger, and said with a helpless sigh: "You don't even think about how long you've been gone?"

She even complained slightly: "And you ended up losing your own cultivation."

"Uh..." Xiao Han scratched his head in embarrassment again; this time it was indeed his impulse.

And thinking that he had been away for nearly two years, it was normal not to know about this.

However...

Xiao Han suddenly sighed: "The Ancient Clan..."

Thinking of that Xiao Clan ancestor who suffered torture in the Heavenly Tomb, once a high-spirited powerhouse of the continent, Xiao Han couldn't help but sigh with regret.

At the same time, he clenched his fists; there were still twenty years left, he was definitely going to the Heavenly Tomb!

"Are you thinking about that Heavenly Tomb?" Yi Huang didn't know much about the Xiao Clan ancestor, but she was well aware of the existence of the Heavenly Tomb.

In Yi Huang's view, since it was the burial place of many powerhouses from the ancient era, the Xiao Clan was naturally included.

Perhaps Xiao Han was touched because of this.

"Let's not talk about this." Xiao Han nodded, then changed the subject.

"Besides those two boys, who else went?" Xiao Han asked.

"There is also the girl Xin'er." Yi Huang's eyes revealed a trace of cunning, and she said with a fox-like smile.

"You..." Xiao Han was a bit helpless; Yi Huang was truly becoming more and more like an elder, and how could he not know the other's ulterior motives? She was trying every way to play matchmaker for those two young people!

"Hehe~" Seeing Xiao Han's speechless expression, Yi Huang smiled indifferently.

"However... are three people too few?" Xiao Han was a bit worried about the safety of the three little ones.

Two second-generation heirs of Langya Pavilion, one successor of Sound Valley; if something happened to them...

"Rest assured, they have their own discretion." Yi Huang was quite at ease about this matter; although Langya Pavilion kept a low profile, its strength was not just talk, and there were really not many factions in the entire Central Plains that had the guts to provoke them.

Furthermore, Ye Shenghan and the other two are all at the Dou Zun level, and they possess quite a few life-saving measures on their persons; wanting to take them down is truly no easy task.

However... the self-assured Yi Huang had overlooked a certain group.
