The bright moon hangs high in the sky, and the moonlight is like a veil.
In a beautiful pavilion on the back mountain of the Heavenly Floating Island, Yao Yan was drinking with Hai Bodong. The two chatted about the past and their experiences over the years, but most of the time, it was Yao Yan who was listening and Hai Bodong who was talking, listening to him talk about the changes in the Gama Empire and the choice of his old friend Yunshan.
"That old guy Yunshan is so lucky. He accepted a good disciple. Not long after he broke into the Dou Zong realm, he left everything in the Yunlan Sect to Yun Yun and ran away to live a free life~" Hai Bodong cursed with a smile, with a hint of envy in his tone.
After all, Yunshan's current life is exactly what he had longed for before. Once upon a time, he also hoped that he could go out and explore the world without any worries.
"If Hai Lao wants to be like him, he can just hand this place over to Tengshan." Yao Yan said softly after hearing this.
He didn't care too much about the Heavenly Court in the Black Horn Region. Everything he was doing now was just to prepare for the future. However, the prerequisite for everything was that he break through the Dou Di and enter the Great Thousand World. If he couldn't even do this step, the role of the Heavenly Court would plummet.
Now as the young patriarch of the Soul Clan, Yao Yan obviously does not need any help from any force. The Soul Clan and the Soul Palace are his best helpers.
"...Forget it, I don't have the heart for it." Hai Bodong pondered for a moment, then smiled and shook his head, saying: "I have been to Zhongzhou many times in recent years. There are so many geniuses and evildoers in that place, it's not suitable for an old guy like me to venture out."
After saying that, he glanced at Yao Yan. Sometimes you have to accept it.
He had spent most of his life, and only with the help of Yao Yan, was he able to break into the Dou Zong realm. Over the years, he had spent countless resources before he could barely see the shadow of the Dou Zun realm. However, in just a dozen years, Yao Yan had already surpassed the two levels of Dou Zong and Dou Zun and entered the realm of Dou Sheng!
This speed of cultivation is simply breathtaking.
"I heard that you are hit by me." Yao Yan noticed Hai Bodong's eyes and teased.
"It's fine for me, but the genius monster who lives in the same era as you will probably be very desperate." Hai Bodong joked with a hearty smile. He was very curious about Yao Yan's confrontation with those people, but he didn't know if there was anyone in Zhongzhou who could keep up with Yao Yan's pace and become his opponent.
If not, Yaoyan would probably feel very lonely.
"Maybe." Yao Yan smiled and did not continue the topic, because he had never regarded people of the same generation as opponents. He had only one goal from beginning to end, but there was no need to say such words.
"When do you plan to leave?" Hai Bodong put down the cup in his hand and asked.
"Tomorrow morning," Yao Yan said softly.
Hai Bodong's eyes moved slightly, and he nodded. He drank two more glasses of wine with Yao Yan before pretending to be casual and saying, "There is a good hot spring in the back mountain. It was discovered in recent years. The strange energy contained in it has the effect of warming the soul. You can go and experience it later."
"Is there such a good place? I'll go take a look later." Yao Yan became interested and nodded in response.
"It has obvious effects on those below the Dou Zong level... I just don't know if it will have any effect on you, the Dou Sheng." Hai Bodong reminded.
"Just try and you will find out."
……
After drinking.
Under the guidance of Hai Bodong, Yao Yan came to a forbidden area in the back mountain. The area was blocked by formations on all sides. If one was not at the Dou Zong level, one could not even get close to it without knowing the method. In the area, a pool with a diameter of about ten meters appeared in the sight of the two.
The edge of the pool is built with jade stones, with mist rising from it. From time to time, bubbles are churning in the center of the pool. As they burst, rich energy from heaven and earth surges out, adding a bit of haze to the mist, which looks quite magical.
When Yao Yan saw this scene, he curiously probed his soul power over there and soon went deep into the pool of water. He immediately discovered that the ground veins here were very special, like the crater of a volcanic eruption, causing the energy contained in the ground veins to flow out and produce such a strange phenomenon.
It's structure is somewhat similar to the Tianshan Blood Pond, but the terrain is weaker and the condensed energy level is far inferior to that of the Tianshan Blood Pond. However, precisely because of this, people who absorb it don't have to worry about the problem of fire poison.
Unfortunately, it is only applicable to those below Dou Zong level and is completely useless to Yao Yan.
"The environment is nice~" Yao Yan gave his evaluation. The environment around the hot spring pool has obviously been renovated and is quite elegant.
"It seems it's useless to you... But since you're here, you might as well go in and experience it for yourself." Hai Bodong said with a smile.
Yao Yan did not refuse and nodded.
"I'll ask someone to prepare some drinks and stuff, you enjoy yourself~" Hai Bodong threw down a sentence and walked outside, seeming a little worried that Yao Yan would refuse.
Yao Yan didn't think much about it. He took off his clothes and entered the pool. He leaned against the edge of the water, closed his eyes and enjoyed it. To be honest, this kind of bath felt very comfortable, especially since the water in the pool contained rich energy from heaven and earth, which had the effect of nourishing the body and soul.
Even though it had no effect on him, the feeling of being enveloped by the energy of heaven and earth was extremely clear.
My mind seems to be empty.
About half a cup of tea later, a familiar breath entered the formation.
Yao Yan frowned slightly, then relaxed and allowed the other party to approach.
The person who came was not Hai Bodong, but Ya Fei.
She was wearing a red tulle dress, which wrapped her graceful figure, revealing her allure and charm. Her pair of white jade feet lightly stepped on the ground. Her feet were beautiful and round, and her toes were slender and exquisite, just like the world's top jade.
Her long black hair lay flat behind her, her charming and mature face had a blush, she bit her red lips lightly, her enchanting eyes were a little awkward and nervous, she slowly approached Yao Yan, slowly squatted down beside him, put down the wine, then scooped up some pool water with clumsy movements and poured it on Yao Yan's shoulders.
"My lord, I will bathe you..." Ya Fei opened her red lips slightly, her voice trembling slightly. Her gentle voice had a tingling and numbing magic.
Yao Yan didn't expect Hai Bodong to play such a trick, and he didn't expect Ya Fei, who was in the inner courtyard of Canaan College before, to rush back and even come over hurriedly to bathe him. However, if he still didn't understand what the two meant at this moment, then all these years would have been in vain.
He sighed softly, raised his hand, held Yafei's hand, and pulled her into his arms. As the pool water soaked her, her enchanting figure could no longer be concealed by the veil, and the beautiful curves of the mature woman were fully revealed.
Yao Yan looked at the beautiful scenery, his gaze slowly moved upwards and fell on the beautiful face. She seemed to be a little hot, her cheeks were flushed, her eyes were slightly drooped, and her long and curled eyelashes trembled slightly, as if she didn't dare to look at him.
"Oh~ Do you really want to help me bathe?" Yao Yan looked at the beauty in his arms. Naturally, he would not say anything to ruin the atmosphere. He stroked her cheek gently, lifted her chin, forced her evasive eyes to look at him, and chuckled.
Ya Fei's breathing was a little rapid, and she let out a seductive moan: "Hmm~"
"Then come on~" Yao Yan let go of Ya Fei, spread his arms, closed his eyes and enjoyed it. Ya Fei was stunned for a moment, she thought Yao Yan would pounce on her, after all, the eyes of those men in the past undoubtedly showed this point, if they were given the opportunity, they would definitely eat her up like a beast, how could they be as determined as Yao Yan.
Is this a self-initiative?!
Ya Fei understood what Yao Yan meant and felt annoyed. She glanced at Yao Yan with resentment as he closed his eyes and hesitated for a moment, then moved closer and began to serve him in an awkward manner.
……
Dawn is approaching.
Yao Yan carried the sleeping Ya Fei out of the forbidden area, and then put her back in her courtyard. Looking at Ya Fei's blushing face, he raised his hand and pointed, injecting a wisp of seven-colored flame with his soul mark into her body. This flame can help her practice, and it should not be a problem for her to reach the Dou Zong level.
After doing all this, he stood up and walked out of the house. In a flash, he found Hai Bodong. The old man was still drinking in the pavilion, and it seemed that he knew Yao Yan would come to see him again.
"Is it over?" Hai Bodong said with a faint smile on his face.
"Yeah, I just sent her back to the house." Yao Yan nodded and responded, then sat down opposite Hai Bodong, raised his glass and drank it all, "I can't take her with me, she's a little weak, so she'd better stay here."
"Ya Fei has been waiting for you for more than ten years. This is not only the wish of the Mittel family, but also her own wish... You don't need to have any psychological burden." Hearing this, Hai Bodong was silent for a moment and spoke slowly.
In a sense, Yafei was the candidate put forward by the Mittel family. Yaoyan does not need to be responsible for this. He just needs to remember this "favor"!
"You old guys just love to calculate these things~" Yao Yan shook his head and smiled helplessly.
"If not, some people won't feel at ease." Hai Bodong sighed softly. The Mitre family has received too much favor, but Yao Yan has never asked for anything from the Mitre family. Naturally, some old guys would think too much.
Now that Yaoyan has slept with Yafei, it can actually comfort some of the old guys, and it can also comfort Yafei.
"I plan to leave soon. As for Ya Fei...if she is willing to continue to be in charge of the auction house, then she can continue to control it. If not, let her go to the northwest continent." Yao Yan made some arrangements for Ya Fei. Since they had that relationship, he naturally couldn't ignore it.
As for communicating my feelings with Yafei, I don’t have the time or energy for that at the moment.
"Yes." Hai Bodong nodded and said, "Even if you don't say it, Ya Fei's future treatment will change... She will become the next head of the Mitel family."
Everything the Mitre family has now is because of Yaoyan, and Yafei, who has a relationship with Yaoyan, will naturally be affected by this. If there wasn't this relationship, the next head of the Mitre family would obviously not fall on Yafei, but now, there is no suspense.
Even Tengshan would not have any objection.
Yao Yan nodded, raised his glass to Hai Bodong, and said, "After today's farewell, the next time we meet may be many years later... Hai Lao, take care!"
"Have a good trip!" Hai Bodong raised his glass and said.
The two of them drank the wine in one gulp.
……
……
The sky was just beginning to turn pale.
Yao Yan found Little Medical Immortal and Skyfire Reverend, then tore through space, taking the two of them towards the Izumo Empire. As for Ya Fei, he never went there again. He had already said what he needed to say during the in-depth communication last night, and he had also explained to Hai Bodong what he needed to explain. The rest was just up to time.
"Have you explained everything clearly to Hai Bodong?" Venerable Tianhuo seemed to have a good impression of Hai Bodong, and asked while they were traveling.
"I've said everything that needs to be said." Yao Yan nodded in response.
Little Medical Fairy was obedient and didn't ask anything. She only knew that Yao Yan had been drinking with Hai Bodong all night last night, and the two seemed to be good friends who had not seen each other for many years. As for other things, she didn't know and had no intention of asking.
Yao Yan thought for a moment, then handed a jade bottle to Skyfire Venerable, saying, "In the coming years, I'll have to trouble you to stay in the Northwest Continent and guard the base camp for me. This bottle of Dousheng Jade Marrow will be your reward!"
"I won't be polite with you." Skyfire Venerable was stunned, then took the Dou Sheng Jade Marrow with a smile. This thing was a good thing, which could only be produced in the Dou Sheng Jade Bone. For the Dou Zun, it was a treasure. If the quantity was large, it could even pave the way for the Dou Sheng.
Even the amount in this bottle is enough to make his strength reach the peak of Dou Zun, and he even has some chance to touch the realm of Semi-Saint!
Now he couldn't help but sigh at Yao Yan's generosity. He could take out such a precious treasure at will.
He looked at Yao Yan with some curiosity and asked, "What level have you reached in your alchemy skills?"
Yao Yan had already reached the level of an eighth-grade advanced alchemist in Danta before. Now that his strength has reached the level of a Fighting Saint, his level of alchemy will inevitably improve by leaps and bounds, and he is very likely to reach the legendary level of a ninth-grade grandmaster.
"I don't know. I haven't made pills for a while... This time when I return to Zhongzhou, if I have the chance, I will try the ninth-grade elixir." Yao Yan said softly, with some anticipation in his eyes. He was also very curious about what level his alchemy skills had reached.
“With your talent for alchemy, I think it won’t be a problem. I congratulate you in advance!” Skyfire Venerable stroked his white beard and said with a smile: “I didn’t expect that I would have the opportunity to meet a ninth-grade alchemist, haha!”
"Young Master is so amazing~" The Little Medical Fairy said softly with a little admiration in her beautiful eyes.
"Congratulations when I really refine it." Yao Yan said with a smile.
"Sir, there will be no problem!" Xiao Yixian was full of confidence, and seemed to be more confident than Yao Yan. Obviously, when a woman has a good impression of a man, her trust is unconditional.
Yao Yan smiled and didn't say anything else.
Speechless all the way.
About half an hour passed.
The three of them successfully arrived at the Izumo Empire. There was already a space wormhole standing in the snakeman temple. The silver space force escaped from time to time, but was tightly bound by the huge space force around it.
Yao Yan looked at the space wormhole with his eyes flickering slightly. He knew that he should go back. This time, there would definitely be a bloody storm!
He must improve his strength to the Nine-Star Douluo in the shortest possible time!
At any cost! (End of this chapter)
