Chapter 286: Puppet Saint, Jiang Yu

Dou Qi Continent: Xiao Clan Ice Saint Chapter 286: Puppet Saint, Jiang Yu

Southern Region of Central Plains, Langtian City.

Inside a private room on the top floor of a restaurant near the street, a handsome man dressed in white was leisurely watching the scene of people coming and going on the street; this person was none other than Xiao Han, who was out wandering because he had nothing better to do.

At this moment, a commotion suddenly came from the stairwell outside the door; putting down the cup in his hand, Xiao Han said indifferently,

"Please, come in!"

Xiao Han keenly sensed that the person outside the door paused for a moment, and then the latter gently pushed open the door and walked in; a black, tower-like burly man appeared before Xiao Han's eyes.

"Introduce yourself!" Xiao Han said calmly.

"This one is Heiqing, I pay my respects to Lord Ice Saint," Heiqing said respectfully.

He kept his posture very low; when he came, the Great Elder had personally instructed him to treat him with the utmost courtesy, even more respectfully than he would the Great Elder.

"Mm," Xiao Han said calmly, "Eight-Star Dou Zun Peak; it seems Zhu Huo still trusts me quite a bit."

Back then, when Xiao Han sent a message to East Dragon Island, he only notified Zhu Huo to try his best to send a trusted clansman with a higher cultivation level, otherwise, he would have to bear all the consequences himself.

And based on Xiao Han's understanding of the current strength of East Dragon Island, excluding the few Great Elders who could not be easily moved, this Eight-Star Peak Heiqing was indeed a very high-ranking existence.

Seeing Xiao Han point out his cultivation level in one sentence and even call the Great Elder by his name, Heiqing was not surprised.

To be able to make the Great Elder say those words, and to be a legendary Saint of the Central Plains, it would be strange if he didn't have this bit of ability.

Heiqing said steadily, "Our clan attaches great importance to the message from Lord Ice Saint, but our clan is currently in a troubled autumn, so we couldn't spare any manpower for a moment."

"Therefore, I could only be sent to come."

"I wonder what instructions Lord Ice Saint has?"

Xiao Han smiled slightly and said slowly, "You must have heard that a Saint's ruin is about to open in the Central Plains, right!"

Although Heiqing was puzzled, he still nodded with a blank expression: "Yes!"

After all, he had heard people talking about this just now when he passed by downstairs, and he was preparing to go explore it if he had the time.

But the next instant, Xiao Han's words made Heiqing decide that he must go at all costs!

Only hearing Xiao Han with a smile on the corner of his mouth: "There is a Dragon Phoenix Origin Fruit in that ruin."

"Boom—" Heiqing, in a daze, unconsciously cracked the jade floor under his feet, then sobered up and said subconsciously:

"Is this true?"

Xiao Han glanced at Heiqing casually, "Do I have any need to lie to you?"

"Yes, yes, yes! My Lord naturally has no need to deceive me," Heiqing reacted immediately, his body breaking out in cold sweat,

"It is just that this Dragon Phoenix Origin Fruit concerns the rise and fall of my Taixu Ancient Dragon Clan; I was momentarily excited and spoke out of turn, I hope my Lord will forgive me."

"Mm!" Looking at Heiqing, who was shaking like chaff, Xiao Han had a faint smile on his face: "Rest assured, I naturally won't do anything to you."

"You are also very lucky; this time the Saint's ruin is opening, the strength of the various parties coming is not too strong, and the possibility of you obtaining that Dragon Phoenix Origin Fruit is very high."

Heiqing finally understood what the consequence he had to bear himself, which the Elder had mentioned with doubt, was; this consequence was something no one from top to bottom could bear.

He took a deep breath, only feeling that the burden on his shoulders was very heavy; the future of the entire Taixu Ancient Dragon Clan rested entirely in his hands. If he could not obtain it, then he would be a sinner of the entire Taixu Ancient Dragon Clan!

"Many thanks for the information, my Lord. My Taixu Ancient Dragon Clan will not forget your kindness!" Heiqing said solemnly.

"Hehe—" Xiao Han smiled indifferently, "This matter is also your own choice; Zhu Huo is very lucky, he sent someone with decent cultivation."

Heiqing wiped cold sweat in his heart; fortunately, the clan did not just go through the motions and send just anyone. Otherwise, if he didn't get the Dragon Phoenix Origin Fruit, he wouldn't even have a place to cry.

"By the way, this time I need you to do one thing in the Saint's ruin."

Xiao Han added.

"Of course, you can do it after you get the Dragon Phoenix Origin Fruit."

Heiqing patted his chest and guaranteed: "Please give your orders, my Lord; I will go through fire and water, and will not refuse!"

"It's not a difficult task!" Xiao Han had a cold, grim smile on his face:

"I want you to keep all those scumbags from the Heavenly Demon Phoenix Clan inside the ruin this time, especially that Elder of theirs named Huang Xuan."

"The Heavenly Demon Phoenix Clan is also coming?" Heiqing was stunned, then revealed a cold sneer; although he didn't know how that person named Huang Xuan had offended the Ice Saint, the reason was not important.

This matter didn't even need anyone else to say it; given the hatred between the two clans, if he met them, could he possibly let the other party go?

This Elder Huang Xuan was quite honored to be able to be named by the Ice Saint and requested to be killed; his life could be considered worth it.

He immediately agreed readily: "Please rest assured, my Lord, they won't be able to run."

"Then many thanks," Xiao Han smiled. After becoming a Dou Sheng, although he was much freer, some things were still restricted, for example...

Settling scores after the harvest!

It wasn't just about the time the Heavenly Demon Phoenix Clan joined forces with the Soul Hall to attack the Langya Pavilion, but also meant venting his own anger.

Xiao Han was a very petty person; back in the Beast Domain, Huang Xuan was the main force chasing him and Yi Huang and the others. At that time, they were only High-level Dou Zong, while Huang Xuan was a Three-Star Dou Zun.

Now that times had changed, he was already standing at the peak of the Dou Qi Continent, while the other party was only a Five-Star Dou Zun; he couldn't bully the weak too much.

But if he hadn't run into him, it would be fine, but since he had finally bumped into him, could he not make the other party pay the price?

He couldn't enter the field himself, but couldn't he hire someone to kill? Even the Elders sent out by the Langya Pavilion had been instructed by Xiao Han in advance.

The solemnity of it made Yi Huang feel a bit dumbfounded when she heard about it at the time! A grudge that she had almost forgotten would actually be remembered until now.

Just like that, Huang Xuan was inexplicably sentenced to death.

"Alright, that is all for the matter; do you have any other questions?" Xiao Han frowned, then asked Heiqing.

Just now, he sensed a familiar yet unfamiliar aura appear within his perception range.

"No," Heiqing sensed the intention to see him out in Xiao Han's words, and also tactfully said: "This one will take his leave first."

Xiao Han's figure moved slightly, and he left the room.

………

The next instant, Xiao Han appeared in the private room next door; in front of him was a green-robed man with pale skin and a slender figure, who was tasting the fine wine in his cup unhurriedly.

"The aroma is rich, the taste is mellow, and the aftertaste is long; this Cangyuan Wine is worthy of being the number one fine wine of the Langya Chamber of Commerce." Putting down the cup in his hand, the man said with a chuckle.

"Perhaps this should be our first meeting?" Ignoring the other's words, Xiao Han stared at the person before him, saying without sorrow or joy.

"Hehe~" The man gave a chuckle, "Even so, your great name, Ice Saint, has spread throughout the entire Central Plains! This seat has also admired you for a long time!"

"Oh?" Xiao Han raised an eyebrow and gave a light laugh, "That is truly my honor!"

"May I ask your name?"

Calmly draining the fine wine in his hand in one gulp, the man slowly said: "Puppet Saint, Jiang Yu."
