Chapter 58: The Phenomenon Appears

Just as Xiao Han said, the Jia Ma Empire actually had no defenses against the Xiao Clan.

The Gama Imperial Family were all very sensible; once they witnessed Xiao Han's formidable strength, they no longer cared whether the Xiao Clan would covet their position.

After all, their strength was too weak; even if they did covet it, they could not defend against it. All they could do was cling tightly to the thighs of the Xiao Clan, or rather, Xiao Han.

A casual gift from Xiao Han was enough to allow their Imperial Family to produce a bunch of Dou Wang or even Dou Huang powerhouses.

Therefore, they had already laid flat; wouldn't it be better to just honestly act as a hanger-on?

Why bother defending against a super powerhouse they couldn't afford to offend in the first place?

"Yes." Regarding Xiao Han's words, Xiao Zhan was still quite convinced; even if the final result did not meet expectations, at worst, they could just flatten everything with force.

In this day and age, having big fists is the only hard truth.

Just as Xiao Han was about to say something, news suddenly arrived, a message sent by Yi Huang through the unique method of communication between the two.

It was brief, only two words: "Return quickly!"

"Could something have happened?" Xiao Han's expression was somewhat grave; even without him, the current strength of Langya Pavilion was not something ordinary factions could shake.

To speak a bit arrogantly, even if a Half-Saint powerhouse came, they could be completely detained by relying on the power of Langya Pavilion and the sect's grand formation.

Now that it actually required Yi Huang to contact him personally, could it be that the Soul Hall was finally going to make a move against Langya Pavilion?

But that shouldn't be!

Given the strength he displayed in that battle, if the Soul Hall really wanted to completely eradicate Langya Pavilion, they would need to dispatch at least one Three-Star Dou Sheng and a vast number of Dou Zuns to prevent him from running away halfway.

This did not align with the interests of the Soul Hall; after all, although he and Langya Pavilion were powerful, they rarely stood against the Soul Hall.

Aside from the last time he almost finished off Guyou Shengzhe, there was no obvious conflict between the two.

As for the secret struggles and infighting, those were naturally inevitable.

Noticing Xiao Han's abnormality, Xiao Zhan asked suspiciously: "Grand-uncle, is there a problem?"

He thought there was something improper about his arrangements that made Xiao Han dissatisfied, hence the question.

"Nothing." Xiao Han shook his head, "It's just that there seems to be some accident in the pavilion, I need to go back first."

"Then Grand-uncle should set off as soon as possible!" Xiao Zhan said somewhat urgently.

"The affairs here in the Jia Ma Empire are enough for me to handle."

After all, Xiao Zhan was very clear-headed now; Langya Pavilion was Xiao Han's greatest foundation and the crystallization of his hard work.

If not for the blood connection between the Xiao Clan and Xiao Han, it would be impossible for Xiao Han to spend such a huge price to help the Xiao Clan rise.

Moreover, the current strength of Langya Pavilion far exceeded the Xiao Clan, and its utility was even greater; for both public and private reasons, he naturally could not stop Xiao Han from returning.

"Good, I leave this place to you." Xiao Han did not dawdle; after telling Xiao Zhan some precautions, he left quickly.

The entire journey was at full speed, and he even used the Space Wormhole in the Magical Beast Mountain Range.

That serious look made the Purple Crystal Winged Lion King, who was responsible for guarding the wormhole, feel somewhat afraid, worrying if he had done something wrong that had provoked the other party's anger.

Then, under the trembling heart of the Purple Crystal Winged Lion King and his bewildered expression, Xiao Han said nothing and charged directly into the Space Wormhole.

When Xiao Han returned to Langya Pavilion, he was puzzled to find that everything was as usual; why did Yi Huang make him return in such a hurry?

Carrying a belly full of confusion and bewilderment, Xiao Han met the anxious-looking Yi Huang.

Just seeing Xiao Han's figure, Yi Huang quickly stepped forward to meet him.

Xiao Han also knew that the matter might be urgent, so he immediately asked: "Huang'er, what happened?"

"An abnormal snowfall has appeared in the Yaori Region of the Dou Qi Continent." Yi Huang did not waste words; just a brief description made Xiao Han understand the importance of the matter.

The Dou Qi Continent is vast and boundless, not just limited to the Central Plains region.

In fact, although the Central Plains is full of powerhouses and sits at the center of the continent, its area is not very large relative to the entire Dou Qi Continent.

And in the regions outside the Central Plains, there are equally vast worlds, such as the Northwest Continent where the Jia Ma Empire is located.

Although it is called a remote backwater, its area is still more than half of the Central Plains. Of course, in terms of strength, it naturally cannot be mentioned in the same breath.

The Yaori Region is located in the south of the Dou Qi Continent, with a climate of high temperatures and heat all year round, extremely suitable for fire-attribute Dou Qi practitioners to cultivate there.

However, news has now come that a snowy day has actually appeared there, even accompanied by thunder and lightning.

In the speculation of the crowd, it should be the birth of an ice-attribute exotic treasure, so many local cultivators in the Yaori Region have headed to the center of the phenomenon—the Yaori Mountain Range.

And Yi Huang had been keeping an eye on relevant news after listening to Xiao Han, so she immediately sent an urgent message to Xiao Han as soon as she heard about it.

"Thunder, snowy day..." Xiao Han lowered his head and pondered; that should be it.

But why has such a phenomenon never appeared for so many years?

Xiao Han's heart was in a mess, with various guesses and thoughts intertwined.

Just as Xiao Han was feeling somewhat impatient, a warm, cool, and fair little hand grasped his palm, and a gentle voice rang in Xiao Han's ear,

"Xiao Han... what's wrong with you?"

Yi Huang was somewhat worried about Xiao Han's current state; although he was still in that state of controlling everything, she didn't even know how Xiao Han knew about the so-called exotic treasure phenomenon.

But Yi Huang, who was extremely close to Xiao Han, keenly discovered the panic hidden deep in Xiao Han's heart at this moment.

"It's nothing, Huang'er, don't worry, I'm fine now."

Xiao Han indicated that his situation was fine; he did not want to let Yi Huang also worry and be afraid, but his flickering eyes clearly betrayed Xiao Han.

Yi Huang did not get to the bottom of it; she believed that Xiao Han would tell her later.

She then voluntarily changed the subject, "Then are you going over there now?"

She then raised her own concerns: "If you, a Dou Sheng powerhouse, go there personally, won't it attract the attention of other factions in the Central Plains? And..."

Yi Huang did not continue.

But Xiao Han understood her concerns very well; a treasure that could be valued by Xiao Han is naturally extraordinary, and the difficulty of obtaining it cannot be taken lightly.

If Xiao Han were to suffer some mishap again, or disappear for another hundred years like he did before, the problem would be huge.

"Don't worry, this time I don't need to go for that thing." Xiao Han stroked Yi Huang's soft hair and said softly.

"It can just be used as a test for a certain little guy."

"Xiao Wu?" Yi Huang heard that Xiao Han had no intention of going, and although she was puzzled, she felt much more at ease.

But is it too rash to hand this treasure over to Xiao Wu?

"Rest assured, Xiao Wu will definitely succeed; believe in him," Xiao Han comforted.

Seeing that the worry in Yi Huang's eyes had still not dissipated, Xiao Han sighed again and said, "Fine, I know you raised him like your own son.

Then, as his old father, can I add three more Langya Guards for him?

Wife?"

Hearing Xiao Han's teasing tone, Yi Huang felt a bit shy and annoyed; she lightly slapped Xiao Han and stopped trying to stop him.

After all, the strength of the Langya Guards had been tested, so dealing with a place like the Yaori Mountain Range would naturally be effortless.
