Thinking of this, Yao Yan couldn't help but think of Zi Yan's father Zhu Kun. The other party was detained at the gate of the cave by Tushe Ancient Emperor for nearly ten thousand years and became the number one unlucky guy in the original novel. Not only was his wife and children separated, but even his clan almost fell apart. It was not until Emperor Hun Tian opened the cave that he was able to escape. It was no longer possible to describe his miserable life.

It must be said that this matter was all thanks to Emperor Hun Tian. If the other party had not been obsessed with breaking through to the level of Emperor Dou, Zhu Kun would have really died of old age at the gate of the cave.

To put it in context, it seems that the other party still owes Emperor Hun Tian a favor.

Unfortunately, Zhu Kun is not a good person either. He has a clear mind. In the original novel, if he could enter the place of inheritance, Xiao Yan would have been fine. He also knows the purpose of Emperor Hun Tian and others. After all, everyone is trying to break through to the Dou Emperor, and they are competitors to each other.

The only weakness of this old dragon is Zi Yan. He is a real daughter slave!
"Do you know why the Soul Clan wants to build the Soul Palace?" Emperor Hun Tian naturally didn't know what Yao Yan was thinking. He took a sip of tea, paused, then looked at Yao Yan calmly and spoke slowly, intending to tell Yao Yan the truth about this world.

As the young patriarch of the Soul Clan, there are some things that the other party must know. Only in this way can we be on the same path.

No matter what Yao Yan's identity was in the past, or whether he had any grudge against Hunxuzi, the other party has now become the young patriarch of the Hun clan and is a member of the same clan, so they will definitely follow the same path in the future. Yao Yan's previous answer has already made Emperor Huntian certain of Yao Yan's character.

Since we understand that the strong prey on the weak, it is impossible for us not to pursue strength.

"...I don't know." Yao Yan shook his head, pretending to be doubtful.

"In the final analysis, it's all for the word 'Emperor'!" Emperor Hun Tian paused, and said slowly: "Do you know why there hasn't been a Dou Emperor in Douqi Continent for ten thousand years? It's not because of a lack of cultivation resources, nor is it limited by personal talent, but because the road ahead has been blocked!"

His tone was a little more serious: "To become a Dou Emperor, you need source energy, but for some reason, there has been no source energy produced in the Dou Qi Continent since ten thousand years ago. All the nine-star Dou Sheng peak beings can only sit in despair and die at the end of their lifespans."

"What is source energy?" Yao Yan asked.

Emperor Hun Tian shook his head. It was obvious that he did not know the answer. He just calmly pointed to the spiritual energy that had dissipated on one side and said, "Perhaps it is the same power as this spiritual energy that can make the body transform again. Just like when Dou Zun breaks through to Dou Sheng, the whole body will undergo a transformation, and the same is true for breaking through to Dou Di!"

"Could it be that the Soul Clan established the Soul Palace just to find the source of energy?" Yao Yan said puzzledly.

“Yes and no.” Emperor Hun Tian paused and continued, “The Soul Palace was established to collect the essence of souls, so that the soul realm can be broken through to the Emperor Realm… This is also the only realm in Douqi Continent that can come into contact with the Emperor Realm!”

"As an alchemist, you should know what the Emperor Realm in the Soul Realm means!"

"So, the peak of the Nine-Star Fighting Saint is the end?" Yao Yan frowned slightly and said in a low voice, seeming a little disappointed.

"No, there was a man who broke this rule ten thousand years ago. As soon as he was born, he broke through and became a Dou Emperor. Before he disappeared, he left a cave. You should have heard of this man, Tuoshe Ancient Emperor!" Emperor Hun Tian's eyes suddenly became sharp, and he said in a concentrated voice: "And if you want to open the cave he left behind, you need to collect eight pieces of Tuoshe Ancient Emperor Jade. Now these ancient jade fragments are controlled by the major imperial clans!"

"It's a pity that they regard the fragments as treasures, but they don't know that the ancient jade fragments that cannot open the cave are just decorations and are useless!"

As he finished speaking, a fragment of ancient jade appeared in his palm, faintly flickering with strange light. It was slightly different from the fragment that Yao Yan had obtained, but the material was exactly the same.

Emperor Hun Tian pushed the fragment of Tuo She Ancient Emperor Jade in front of Yao Yan and said suddenly: "Since you have become the young patriarch of the Soul Clan, this fragment of Tuo She Ancient Emperor Jade will be under your control. If anything unexpected happens to me in the future, the Soul Clan will be led by you!"

"?!" Yao Yan almost lost his balance and looked at Emperor Hun Tian in shock and astonishment. He never expected Emperor Hun Tian to say that and he was a little overwhelmed.

“If Hun Feng becomes the young clan leader, I would not feel comfortable handing the Soul Clan over to him. But you are different. You have grown up all the way to where you are now without relying on the clan’s resources. Your character and talent are both excellent. I feel relieved that the Soul Clan is in your control.” Emperor Hun Tian said sincerely, as if a kind old man was explaining his affairs after his death.

"Clan leader, I... I am not up to the task, and with my current strength, I really don't know how to protect this ancient jade!" Yao Yan stood up trembling with fear and hurriedly refused. He didn't even dare to take the ancient jade fragment that floated in front of him. If he hadn't carried the ancient jade fragment with him, he would have thought that Emperor Hun Tian was testing him.

It's so fucking scary!
Only he was familiar with the plot and knew the true face of Emperor Hun Tian, ​​otherwise he would have been deceived by his kind appearance.

Can this fragment of Tushe Ancient Emperor Jade be received?

I'm afraid they are using me as bait!

"You have no confidence in your future? You were not like this when you were in the blood sacrifice world. As for your strength, with your talent and the full training of the Soul Clan, it won't take long for you to become a Dou Sheng. It's only a matter of time before you surpass your teacher in the future... As for not being able to protect this ancient jade, who do you think you are now?"

Emperor Hun Tian smiled slightly, his tone was extremely calm, yet filled with dominance and pride.

"You are the young leader of the Soul Clan. Now you represent the entire Soul Clan. Who dares to snatch the ancient jade from you? If you lose the ancient jade in the realm of other imperial clans, they will find the jade and return it to you even if they turn the entire realm upside down!"

"Remember, you are the young patriarch of the Soul Clan. From today on, you don't need to be afraid of anyone. Even if the sky falls, the Soul Clan will support you. No one in the world can cause trouble to you!"

"Keep this jade, it represents your identity and status!"

I'm so fucking touched... Yao Yan looked at Emperor Hun Tian with emotion and didn't know what to say for a moment. If he didn't know what Emperor Hun Tian would do in the future, he would really think that Emperor Hun Tian was a good clan leader and really wanted to die for him!
A piece of useless jade was enough to win people's hearts. What a fun thing to do!

"I understand, Patriarch!"

Yao Yan took a deep breath, took the ancient jade with both hands with a serious look on his face, and then put it into his storage ring. During the whole process, he was trembling with fear, and inexplicably felt that Emperor Hun Tian was planning something.

"Don't feel any pressure. I'm not old yet, and I can still protect you from the wind and rain. There's still a long way to go in the future, so work hard."

"I will!"

Emperor Hun Tian smiled and said, "Go wash up, rest for a few days, and then follow me to meet a good friend."

Yao Yan nodded, bowed, then turned and left. The whole process was like a dream. He had no idea what Emperor Hun Tian was planning.

Wait for Yaoyan to leave.

The smile on Emperor Hun Tian's face slowly faded, he looked at the chessboard calmly, and whispered: "Not bad, little guy~"

"Why did you give the ancient jade fragment to him." Along with a cold voice, a man in a black robe appeared in front of Emperor Hun Tian, ​​with some confusion in his eyes. Obviously, he didn't understand Emperor Hun Tian's operation. The ancient jade fragment was one of the keys to open the cave of Emperor Tushe. How could such an important item be handed over to a junior who was not even a Dou Sheng?

Even if the opponent has good talent, his strength is ultimately too weak.

"If we can't collect all eight pieces, it will be a useless thing... There is still some time before the plan. Before that, we have to find a way to stabilize the various races. Don't you think he is suitable?" Emperor Hun Tian said softly with a smile on his face.

"What are you going to do?" Void Devouring Flame asked in a low voice.

"I plan to use ancient jade as a betrothal gift and propose marriage to the Gu clan! Gu Yuan's daughter seems to be not young anymore~" Emperor Hun Tian said softly with a hint of amusement in his eyes.

"..." Void Devouring Flame was silenced by Emperor Hun Tian.

But he had to admit that Emperor Hun Tian had a good idea. This news was enough to attract the attention of all races. And with Yao Yan's strange talent, once it was discovered that he possessed the blood power of various races, it would definitely cause a lot of trouble!
Then you can push Yaoyan up to attract attention.

"Wouldn't it be too noisy?" Xuwu Tunyan frowned and said. Rather than playing in such a high-profile manner, he still preferred to do things secretly.

"It's only a matter of time, it's just a matter of time." Emperor Hun Tian slowly stood up, his white clothes fluttering in the wind, and his calm voice continued: "If it's not necessary, I don't want to break up with Gu Yuan. He's not easy to deal with. I can confuse him for a while... I believe he won't be indifferent. Even if he's not interested, those old guys in the Gu clan won't do as he wishes."

"He has always been so indecisive..."

The breeze blew his long hair, revealing the angular profile of Emperor Hun Tian. There was a faint smile on the corner of his mouth, as if he was mocking his old friend.

……

……

Yao Yan was not yet aware of Emperor Hun Tian's plan. He glanced at the storage ring on his finger from time to time. He inexplicably felt that his storage ring was much heavier. When he walked out of the range of the mountain top, a human face made of black flames appeared on Yao Yan's shoulder with a sly smile on his face.

"Hehehe, the young master is in a bad mood. Could it be that he was scolded by the clan leader?"

"No, I just feel a bit stressed. Just now the clan leader gave me the Tushe Ancient Emperor Jade for safekeeping!" Yao Yan did not hide anything and spoke directly to Tian Zihuo beside him. This matter could not be concealed at all, and there was no need to hide it from anyone.

Just as Hunxuzi said, the name of the Hun clan is the biggest deterrent. Not to mention robbing it, even if he placed the Tushe Ancient Emperor Jade in front of the various clans, no one would dare to take it.

The Soul Clan is not the ruined Xiao Clan. The Soul Clan in its heyday is not afraid of any force!

"Tathagata Ancient Emperor Jade?!"

Tianzihuo was stunned when he heard this, and then flew around Yaoyan twice. There was a bit of disbelief in his big ghost eyes. Obviously, he did not expect that Emperor Huntian would give such an important thing to Yaoyan, and immediately reduced the idea of ​​snatching Yaoyan's body.

It’s simple, he’s just scared!

It didn't expect that Emperor Hun Tian would value Yao Yan so much. Could it be that the other party was Emperor Hun Tian's illegitimate son?
"Well, why don't you trouble Lord Tianzihuo to enter the storage ring and help me watch it in case of any problems." Yao Yan raised his hand and said to Tianzihuo. He didn't dare to let Tianzihuo enter his body.

The opponent's strength is there, and with the characteristics of the Void Devouring Flame, even a four or five-star Douluo would have no way to deal with it, let alone Yao Yan.

"Okay~" Tianzihuo responded and turned directly into a wisp of black flame, pouring into Yaoyan's storage ring.

It easily found the Tushe Ancient Emperor Jade in the ring, and then looked at the ancient jade fragment with curiosity, and even tried to touch it. Unfortunately, the ancient jade fragment did not react at all, like a dead object, and did not change at all under the burning of the Void Devouring Flame.

Yao Yan looked at him coldly and ignored him. It was enough to persuade the other party into the ring to prevent him from following him quietly and making it impossible to detect his whereabouts. This was obviously not a good thing, especially since Tianzihuo was so intelligent.

As soon as he walked out of the range of the mountain top, he saw the figure of Hunxuzi. The other party did not leave too far, and had been waiting around until he saw Yao Yan coming out, then he came over.

Hunxuzi didn't say anything. He raised his hand and took Yaoyan away from the place.

Wait for the two to return to the mansion.

Hunxuzi sealed off the space, stared at Yaoyan seriously, and asked in a deep voice: "Tell me everything the clan leader said to you!"

Yao Yan cooperated and told them everything they had said without changing a single word. He didn't know much about the Soul Clan and his strength was not strong yet. For now, he had to rely on his cheap teacher to protect him until he could go solo.

"The clan leader gave the Tushe Ancient Emperor Jade to you?!" Hunxuzi looked at Yao Yan in disbelief. He was obviously shocked. His eyes were flashing and his mind was racing, thinking about why the clan leader did this.

Are you optimistic about Yaoyan? !
This obviously doesn't make sense. After all, Emperor Hun Tian is still in his prime, and there is still a long time before the end of his life. Moreover, the plan is about to be implemented... Emperor Hun Tian gave the key to Yao Yan for safekeeping. Isn't he afraid of accidents? !

Hunxuzi did not dare to ask for the ancient jade. He did not dare to disobey Huntiandi in any way. At most, he dared only think about it in his mind and did not dare to make the slightest move to disobey.

Although Emperor Hun Tian does not have much control over affairs, once he makes a decision, no one in the Hun Clan can disobey it.

"I don't know the reason either. Why don't you explain to the clan leader that my strength is low and you can take charge?" Yao Yan instigated.

"...Since the clan leader has given it to you, you should manage it well. Just as the clan leader said, you are now the young clan leader and are qualified to be in charge of it!" Hunxuzi was a little tempted, but he was just tempted and did not dare to do anything excessive. He threw down a word and turned to leave, intending to test the attitude of Emperor Huntian.

Yao Yan watched the other party leave, pondered for a moment, then collected his thoughts and went to wash up and rest.

As for the Tushegudi Jade.

Just as Emperor Hun Tian said, if the sky falls, the Soul Clan will be watching, so Emperor Hun Tian has nothing to worry about. What is he afraid of? (End of this chapter)
