Yao Yan sat cross-legged on the bed with his eyes closed. Purple-blue flames lingered around his body, but no temperature was emitted. There was only a vast pressure. The space around him rippled with his breathing, as if the whole world was affected by him.

After a long while, he slowly opened his eyes. Deep in his eyes, purple-blue flames rose, and after a moment, they disappeared into thin air.

"I'm not far from becoming a semi-saint... Based on my current condition, I won't stay at the semi-saint level for too long!" Yao Yan's eyes flashed slightly, and he thought to himself.

The so-called semi-saint is the state that the Nine-transformation Dou Zun is in after entering the transformation. Once the Dou Zun enters the state of transcendence, the whole body will undergo transformation. The most obvious sign is the jade bone. During this period, a lot of energy is consumed, which is why the Dou Zun needs to compress the Dou Qi nine times.

At the same time, the process of nine revolutions is also a process of elimination. If one's physical body cannot withstand the nine revolutions of fighting spirit, then there is no need to consider breaking through to the Fighting Saint level.

Obviously, with Yao Yan's talent, there is no need to worry about this. His body has been forged in his childhood and baptized by the power of strange fire time and time again, and it has long reached a peak. Even the bones in his body have entered a state of semi-jade bones, and this is obviously caused by the drop of blood of the Fighting Saint that he absorbed that year.

Hunxuzi used it to balance the royal bloodline of the Soul-Swallowing Clan, and at the same time, it also allowed Yaoyan to have the physique to withstand devouring others!

"In a sense, Hunxuzi is indeed my benefactor!"

Yao Yan thought to himself that without the pressure from Hunxuzi, he would not have been able to cultivate to this level at this age, let alone become the young patriarch of the Soul Clan. Even his future path to becoming a Fighting Saint would have been paved, and there would no longer be any obstacles preventing him from reaching the top.

The only thing to consider is time!
However, it is obviously impossible for him to thank Hunxuzi. He has never forgotten the body-building process in which he was neither able to live nor die. It was also that time that reminded Yao Yan what kind of world the Douqi Continent is!
"Whoo~"

Yao Yan suppressed the distracting thoughts in his mind, closed his eyes and took a long breath, then his eyes calmed down again. What he needed to consider now was how to get promoted to a Douluo Saint as quickly as possible. His accumulation was too huge, and the energy required to break through to the Douluo Saint would far exceed that of an ordinary Douluo Saint. He wondered whether Hunxuzi had prepared these cultivation resources for him.

"Hehehe, young master, is the training over?" Along with a sinister laugh, the Sky Fire, whose face looked like Gengar's, emerged from the void on the side.

Yao Yan could only vaguely sense the other party's existence, and this was thanks to the blood power of the Taixu Ancient Dragon, which gave him an extremely strong spatial perception ability. Otherwise, relying solely on his soul power in the late Heavenly Realm, he would not be able to sense the existence of the Emperor's Fire.

The Void Devouring Flame is a flame born in the void, invisible and formless, extremely strange, and the Emperor Fire has undoubtedly inherited these abilities.

"How many days have passed?"

Yao Yan looked at Tian Zihuo and asked. He had not forgotten what Emperor Hun Tian had told him. The other party said that he would take him to meet an old friend in a few days. He was also curious about this old friend and had some guesses in his mind.

"Five days... The young master's talent is truly terrifying. In just a few days, he has already sorted out all the power in his body~" The ghost face transformed by the black flame floated beside Yao Yan. The black and red eyes looked at Yao Yan, as if they could see through the situation inside his body.

Yao Yan touched the purple-black fine lines between his eyebrows. The strength in his body was easy to comb out, but the evil energy between his eyebrows made him a little afraid, because the evil eye had grown up and was no longer a decoration like before. There was even a terrible power brewing in it.

And it always gives Yaoyan a feeling of hunger!

It requires a large amount of vitality, flesh and blood, fighting spirit, etc. The Soul-Devouring Clan warrior that it had devoured before only gave birth to it but did not allow it to grow up completely.

"Has the clan leader looked for me?" Yao Yan slowly got up from the bed, put down his hand calmly, and asked.

"No, but the outside world has been very turbulent these days. Your name has spread throughout the Soul Clan, and many people want to come and meet you, but you have been in seclusion and have been rejected by Hun Yi." Tian Zihuo said slowly with an evil smile on his face, circling around Yao Yan.

Obviously it knows exactly what is happening in the outside world.

"Where is my teacher?" Yao Yan said as he walked outside.

"Go and make the elixir~" Tianzihuo said as a matter of course.

Yao Yan nodded, pushed the door open and walked out. The bright sunshine outside made him feel much better. Compared with the world of blood sacrifice, this outside world was what he liked. Almost at the same time he walked out, Hun Yi's figure appeared in the yard and saluted him respectfully.

"Young patriarch!"

It turns out to be a Dou Sheng... Yao Yan looked at Hun Yi, still unable to sense the other party's depth. He nodded slightly and asked softly: "Has anyone come to see me these days?"

"Yes, many people want to visit, but I was worried about disturbing you, so I refused them! But their names and gifts were left behind!" After Hun Yi finished speaking, he handed a storage ring and the name list to Yao Yan.

Giving gifts...what a familiar taste!

A playful arc appeared on Yao Yan's lips, and he happily put the storage ring and the list into his palm. There was no soul mark on the storage ring, so he could look at it at will. Just a sweep of the soul power, and the large number of treasures, skills, and fighting skills in it would appear in his mind one after another.

Perhaps knowing his identity as a pharmacist, many people chose to give him medicinal herbs, including several ancient herbs that were almost extinct!

Yao Yan's heart trembled slightly when he saw this.

As expected of the Soul Clan, they are so damn rich!
The contents of this storage ring alone are enough to cause a war among all the forces in Zhongzhou.

While Yao Yan was studying the list and the gifts, Hun Yi in front of him continued, "The clan leader issued an order three days ago, officially announcing that you will be the young clan leader of the Hun clan in the future, and he will personally propose marriage to the Gu clan for you, marrying the daughter of the clan leader of the Gu clan!"

"Huh?" Yao Yan was stunned when he heard that, then he opened his eyes wide in disbelief, "You...what did you say?!"

Hun Yi seemed not to notice Yao Yan's shock and repeated his words again.

What the hell!

I knew that Emperor Hun Tian was holding his fart in!
Yao Yan cursed in his heart, and his mentality was a little unstable. It was not that he had never seen the world, but he knew the character of Emperor Hun Tian and his ambitions. The Soul Clan was not far from executing the plan, and now he suddenly wanted him to marry the little princess of the Ancient Clan. Why? !
Could it be that he wanted to use the Tuoshe Ancient Emperor Jade that he had taken from the Ancient Clan? !
In the original novel, the Soul Clan chose to rob it, and the Fighting Saint team led by Emperor Hun Tian directly crushed them, and then obtained the ancient jade fragment through a hidden pawn buried inside the Ancient Clan!
Now, because of my appearance, he has changed his mind? !

Yao Yan felt like Alexander for a moment. According to the original plan, after he became the young patriarch of the Soul Clan, he could use the resources of the Soul Clan to quickly improve his strength and raise his strength to the two-star Dou Sheng as soon as possible. Then he would devour the Void Devouring Flame Emperor Fire and then seek the Blood Essence of the Demon Saint… As long as he could raise his strength to about six or seven stars before the Pure Lotus Demon Fire was born, he would have a certain chance of forcibly refining it and thereby step into the eight-star Dou Sheng!

After that, he can just wait for the war and devour the Dou Shengs of various races… Now that this has happened, Yao Yan is a little confused about Emperor Hun Tian’s plans, especially since he was exposed to various races too early and was targeted by Gu Yuan, the strongest man in the Dou Qi Continent. This feeling is really not very good.

And there is Gu Xun'er!
According to the timeline of the original novel, she should be around thirteen or fourteen years old now...

"The little princess of the ancient clan...tsk tsk, the young master is so blessed!" Tianzihuo said sarcastically.

Yao Yan did not respond. He closed his eyes and pondered for a while, suppressing his impetuous emotions. No matter what Emperor Hun Tian planned, he would follow suit. At the same time, he could not lose his composure. He would just continue with his original plan. Strength is everything!
"Hun Yi, please bring Hun Jue here. I want to see him." Yao Yan quickly found the person he was looking for from the list and instructed Hun Yi.

"Young Patriarch, please wait a moment." Hun Yi said this and disappeared in front of Yao Yan.

"Young master, you don't seem very happy?" Tian Zihuo looked at Yao Yan with some curiosity. He did not feel any joy from Yao Yan. On the contrary, the future young master was a little irritable.

"The relationship between the Soul Clan and the Ancient Clan is not good. This matter is not as simple as you think." Yao Yan explained with a serious and solemn expression.

"Well said~"

At the moment Yao Yan finished speaking, the figure of Emperor Hun Tian entered Yao Yan's field of vision. At the same time, the world around Yao Yan also changed, as if it had been transferred from one space to another out of thin air. During this period, Yao Yan felt nothing.

Emperor Hun Tian was still wearing the white scholar-like robe, standing on the edge of the cliff with a faint smile on his face, looking at Yao Yan with great satisfaction.

Is this the powerful person who has reached the peak of the Nine-Star Fighting Saint level?

I feel like an ant.

Yao Yan's heart was numb, but his hands did not slow down. He bowed respectfully to Emperor Hun Tian and said in a neither humble nor arrogant manner: "Greetings, clan leader!"

Emperor Hun Tian waved his hand, and an invisible force lifted Yao Yan up. At the same time, he heard him continue to say: "What you said just now is right. This matter is indeed not as simple as it seems. The marriage proposal is just a pretense. The real purpose is to get the ancient jade fragment controlled by the ancient clan."

"I plan to use the Soul Clan's Tuoshe Ancient Emperor Jade as a betrothal gift to have you marry the little princess of the Ancient Clan. Judging from the minds of the old guys in the Ancient Clan, they may agree to this!"

"Of course, you also have to perform well enough to let those old guys see that you have the potential to become an emperor!"

"In this way, I will have a chance to convince Gu Yuan to agree to this."

Emperor Hun Tian looked at Yao Yan with a gentle gaze, expressing his goodwill to Yao Yan as an elder, and bewitched him: "The Hun Clan and the Ancient Clan are indeed at odds, because our two clans are the strongest. Once we unite, we will have the final say in the entire Douqi Continent, and the other clans will have to look up to us..."

"This is also the reason why I want to promote the marriage. Gu Yuan only has this one daughter, and you are the young patriarch of the Soul Clan, the future patriarch of the Soul Clan. You can represent the entire Soul Clan. Once you marry her, it means that the future Soul Clan will unite with the Ancient Clan!"

"The eight pieces of ancient jade are controlled by different tribes. If we want to gather them together, the only way is for the two tribes to exert pressure together!"

"As for the conflict between the two clans, that is our business. It has nothing to do with you young people. You represent the new generation... We can't let the road to becoming a Doudi be cut off forever. The Doudi Cave must be opened!"

"There hasn't been a Dou Emperor in Douqi Continent for ten thousand years..."

Emperor Hun Tian showed a look of emotion on his face, as if he was willing to continue the path of becoming the Dou Di for this world and was willing to give everything for it.

What he said sounded just like the truth... Yao Yan was speechless. He suddenly felt lucky that he was a time traveler and knew the plot of the original novel. If it were someone who knew nothing, he would probably be played to death by Emperor Hun Tian, ​​and would be the kind of person who was willing to die.

He was silent for a moment, then said, "But I'm worried that Gu Yuan's daughter may not agree."

"Gu Yuan's daughter is only thirteen or fourteen years old, and her mind is not yet mature... I believe you have a way to trick her into your hands!" Emperor Hun Tian raised his hand and patted Yao Yan's shoulder with an expression of great confidence in him. It was because Yao Yan's face was too handsome, just like those of the spirit race. He was a natural succubus, and there would be absolutely no problem in using him to trick little girls.

Moreover, Yao Yan is extremely talented. He possesses the blood of the Soul-Swallowing Clan and the blood of the Dou Emperors of all clans. He has the potential to become a Dou Emperor. Even his personality is excellent, unlike Hun Feng. If he is willing, there is no reason why he cannot hook up with her.

Why does the dignified Soul Clan leader act like a pimp?
"..." Yao Yan was silent for a moment, not knowing how to respond. He was a peak Nine-turn Dou Zun, about to enter the Semi-Saint realm, but now he was being instigated by a peak Nine-star Dou Saint to seduce a thirteen or fourteen-year-old girl. How did you feel about that?

This is fucking ridiculous.

But what Emperor Hun Tian said made a lot of sense, and he didn't know how to respond.

If we really follow Emperor Hun Tian's approach, there is indeed a good chance that all of this will be achieved, but Yao Yan is very clear about Emperor Hun Tian's ambitions. There is only one imperial pill in the Tuoshe Ancient Emperor Cave, and he will not tolerate anyone else getting involved.

After all, it's all a scam!

No matter how fantastic the words are, they are still false and are only used to achieve one's own goals.

Old coin!
"I'll try my best!" Yao Yan said with difficulty.

"It's not about trying your best, it's about having to succeed!" Emperor Hun Tian said in a deep voice, with a dignified look on his face, "If you can get the daughter of Gu Yuan to agree to this, then the cave left by the ancient emperor Tuoshe will have a chance to open, and the mystery of the Dou Emperor that has troubled the Dou Qi Continent for ten thousand years will be completely solved!"

"Don't let me down! I have high expectations of you!"

Yao Yan nodded to show that he understood. He had no way to refute anything. The tone of the clan leader represented everything. If he failed to deceive, God knew what Emperor Hun Tian would plan. These strong men who liked to use their brains were terrifying. They could obviously crush others with their strength, but they would use psychological tactics.

As expected of an old monster who has lived for thousands of years. (End of this chapter)
