Chapter 28 Hand over Xiao Yan to me!
Xiao Yan raised his hand and reached out to grab the blue lotus flower.
The Azure Lotus Earth Core Flame seemed to sense the threat, and the flames suddenly surged, causing the temperature to rise abruptly, and the air in the cave began to distort.
Xiao Yan remained calm as he condensed a ball of Dou Qi in his palm, directly enveloping the Azure Lotus Earth Core Flame within it.
The flames struggled for a few moments under the suppression of the fighting spirit before gradually calming down, and Xiao Yan took a complete Azure Lotus Earth Core Flame into his possession.
Qinglin stood to the side, her eyes wide with amazement.
"Young Master Xiao Yan, is this the Strange Flame?" Upon seeing the strange flame before him, Qing Lin was immediately shocked, as the intense heat was palpable.
"Yes."
"So beautiful."
Xiao Yan put the Azure Lotus Earth Core Flame into his storage ring and turned to look at her.
"Let's go."
Qinglin nodded vigorously, then obediently followed Xiao Yan and left the place.
The two walked back the way they came.
The three-headed fire spirit snake, controlled by the Azure Serpent Three-Flower Pupil, obediently lay in the cave, watching them leave.
The two passed through a narrow passage and arrived at the bottom of the crevice.
The streets of Shimo City were bustling with people.
Two figures walking in the crowd stood out conspicuously.
Yun Yun wore a moon-white long dress, her appearance was stunning, and her temperament was aloof.
Nalan Yanran followed behind her with a look of urgency on her face.
"Teacher, that bastard Xiao Yan killed the Grand Elder. This time, he must pay the price. When we see him later, we don't need to waste words with him; we should just kill him." Nalan Yanran's hatred for Xiao Yan was becoming increasingly evident.
Yun Yun did not speak.
"Teacher, you won't soften your heart again, will you?" Nalan Yanran couldn't help but ask when she didn't speak.
"Won't."
A hint of joy flashed in Nalan Yanran's eyes.
"We'll find Xiao Yan first when we get to Stone Desert City," Yun Yun said. "I'd like to see what kind of person could kill the Grand Elder."
The two continued walking forward.
As Yunyun walked across the street, she suddenly stopped and her expression changed.
"What's wrong with the teacher?"
Yun Yun didn't answer; she closed her eyes and carefully sensed the atmosphere around her.
Two auras at the Douhuang level were not far ahead.
How could there be a Dou Huang level expert in such a place? Could it be Queen Medusa?
No, she was familiar with Queen Medusa's aura; it wasn't this kind.
Who is that?
Yun Yun opened her eyes and frowned. Logically speaking, a place like Stone Desert City shouldn't have any Dou Huang powerhouses other than Queen Medusa.
"Teacher," Nalan Yanran called out again.
"There is a Dou Huang level expert ahead."
Nalan Yanran's expression changed. "A Dou Huang? In a place like this?"
"Yes, not just one or two."
Nalan Yanran gasped, her expression completely frozen, utterly shocked.
How could there be two Dou Huang level experts in such a small place as Stone Desert City?
"Let's go over and take a look."
The two quickened their pace and headed towards the direction of the two auras.
After walking through several streets, Yunyun stopped.
Ahead was the gate of a mercenary group's encampment, with several large characters written on it: Desert Iron Mercenary Group.
Several guards stood at the entrance, chatting idly.
Yun Yun frowned, and her expression changed slightly.
The auras of two Dou Huang level experts emanated from here.
How could a mercenary group member possibly be a Battle Emperor?
Nalan Yanran stared at the gate for a few moments, then her expression suddenly changed.
"Teacher, I remember now, Xiao Yan's two older brothers are right here."
Yun Yun looked at her. "What did you say?"
"Xiao Yan has two older brothers, one named Xiao Ding and the other named Xiao Li. They started a mercenary group in Shimo City."
Yun Yun's heart was filled with shock and disbelief. How could this be?
It's impossible that Xiao Yan's two older brothers are Dou Huang level experts.
The Xiao family is just a small family in Wutan City, how could they possibly have two Dou Huangs?
"Are you sure you haven't made a mistake?"
"It can't be wrong, I heard about it when the engagement was called off last time."
Yun Yun fell silent.
He stood at the entrance, looking at the gate of the Desert Iron Mercenary Group, lost in thought.
"Teacher, let's go inside."
Yun Yun nodded and walked towards the gate.
Several guards immediately stopped them when they saw people approaching.
"Who are you people?"
Yun Yun remained silent, only slightly releasing her internal fighting spirit.
The guards' expressions changed drastically; the aura was so terrifying that it made it hard for them to breathe.
"Go tell your leader, Yun Yun, the sect leader of Yunlan Sect, that she is visiting."
One of the guards immediately turned around and ran inside.
Xiao Ding and Xiao Li were drinking tea in the hall.
A guard rushed in in a panic.
"Commander, something terrible has happened!"
"What is it?" Xiao Li put down his teacup.
"Two people have arrived outside and claim to be the sect leader of the Yunlan Sect."
Xiao Ding and Xiao Li's expressions changed simultaneously.
The sect leader of Yunlan Sect, a powerful Douhuang three-star expert.
-
"How many people?" Xiao Ding asked.
"There were two of them, a young woman and a young girl, who were the master and apprentice."
"Let them in."
The guard nodded, turned, and ran out.
Xiao Ding stood up with a solemn expression.
"The sect leader of Yunlan Sect has come in person."
"What are you afraid of?" Xiao Li said. "We're both Dou Huangs, why should we be afraid of just one of us?"
"Don't be careless. Yun Yun is a three-star Dou Huang, and her strength should not be underestimated."
Xiao Li nodded without saying anything.
A moment later, Yun Yun and Nalan Yanran entered the hall.
Xiao Ding stepped forward and cupped his hands, saying, "Sect Master Yun, it is an honor to have you here."
Yun Yun looked at him and carefully sensed his aura. As expected of a one-star Dou Huang, he was indeed a Dou Huang.
He was startled, but his expression remained unchanged.
"You are Xiao Ding."
"Yes."
Yun Yun looked at Xiao Li again, another one-star Dou Huang.
How could the Xiao family have two Dou Huangs?
"What brings Sect Leader Yun here today?"
"Find Xiao Yan."
"Third Brother is not here, Sect Leader Yun, please return." Xiao Ding said coldly, naturally able to tell why the master and disciple had sought out Xiao Yan.
Nalan Yanran stepped forward and said coldly, "Xiao Yan killed our Grand Elder and challenged the reputation of the Yunlan Sect. He must be killed. If you know what's good for you, hand him over."
Xiao Li looked at her calmly and said, "Hand it over? On what grounds?"
"Just because Yunlan Sect is the largest sect in the Jia Ma Empire, you can't afford to offend it."
Xiao Li laughed. "Can't afford to offend them?"
Nalan Yanran's expression changed.
"Xiao Yan is our younger brother. If you want to harm him, you'll have to get past us first," Xiao Ding said.
"Sure?"
"He is our brother. If you want to harm him, you'll have to step over our dead bodies first."
Yun Yun fell silent.
She certainly wasn't confident of victory against two one-star Dou Huangs working together.
"Sect Leader Yun, please return," Xiao Ding said. "The matter of our third brother is a matter of right and wrong, and we, as his elder brothers, cannot agree to you forcibly taking him away."
Yun Yun didn't speak, she just looked at them.
Xiao Li stepped forward, and the fighting spirit within his body began to surge.
"Sect Leader Yun, if you wish to make a move, we brothers will accompany you to the end."
Xiao Ding also stepped forward and stood beside Xiao Li, the two of them joining forces, ready to make a move at any moment.
