Fighting: Xiao Yan at full level, leading the whole match

At this moment, not only the Wind Spirit Creator God, but also the other elders and disciples around them could easily see that the relationship between Xiao Yan and Nalan Yanran was anything but ordinary.

In an instant, countless people's feelings towards Nalan Yanran changed from regret and disdain to astonishment and envy.

Upon hearing this, Xiao Yan, who had been sitting to the side, finally smiled and nodded.

“That’s right, Brother Fengling. I’ve known this outer disciple of your sect since we were young. Back then, she left my plane by accident, and that’s when I discovered that she had actually come to your Fengling Great World.”

"I wonder if Brother Fengling would be willing if I took her back to my hometown."

Xiao Yan smiled and looked at the Wind Spirit Creator God beside him.

Upon hearing this, the Wind Spirit Creator God reacted very quickly and nodded immediately.

"If Brother Xiao Yan and Miss Nalan have no objections, I am naturally willing to help them achieve their goal."

In the blink of an eye, the way the Wind Spirit Creator God addressed Nalan Yanran changed from an unknown outer disciple to Miss Nalan.

Its reaction was incredibly swift.

Seeing his sensible expression, Xiao Yan smiled.

Then, his gaze fell upon Nalan Yanran in front of him.

"How about it, do you want to come back with me?"

Xiao Yan looked at Nalan Yanran, and before she could speak, his next words made her tremble.

"Yun'er has missed you a lot all these years."

"And your father, your grandfather, and your family members, they are all doing well now, but they miss you very much without you."

Xiao Yan's single sentence was enough to bring tears to Nalan Yanran's eyes.

Over the years since she came to the Wind Spirit Moon Shadow Sect, her cultivation level seems to have improved a lot, making her one of the best outer disciples. She has even reached a point where she is only one step away from becoming an inner disciple. However, only she knows the hardships she has endured.

From a lowly disciple who suddenly appeared in a lower plane with low cultivation level to where she is today, only Nalan Yanran herself can truly understand the hardships she has endured.

So when Xiao Yan mentioned that his teacher and family had always been concerned about him, Nalan Yanran's grievances and heartache over the years finally erupted at that moment.

"Can you really take me home?"

Nalan Yanran's delicate nose twitched slightly as she looked at Xiao Yan, her gaze complex and filled with endless expectation.

Having cultivated to this point, she finally understood just how far away her home world was from the world she was in.

Let alone the fact that he is currently only an outer disciple, even if he becomes an inner disciple, that day is still far away. Only by becoming a true disciple will he have a sliver of hope.

As for becoming a god, Nalan Yanran, who had been struggling in the outer sect for so many years, had truly realized how difficult it was to become a powerhouse of that level.

"hehe."

Looking at that beautiful face filled with bitter tears, Xiao Yan could only smile helplessly.

"Don't worry, you can go back if you want to."

"Brother Fengling, if possible, would you mind arranging two tables for this old friend of mine?"

Xiao Yan turned to look at the Wind Spirit World God, who quickly realized what was happening and turned his gaze to the World God in charge of the ceremony. The latter also quickly realized what was happening.

He quickly stood up and personally fetched two long tables and futons. Then, he personally took out various precious ingredients from his storage ring and even poured wine for them.

After receiving a satisfied look from the Creator God of Wind Spirit, he nodded slightly, arranged for Nalan Yanran and Elder Qin to sit down, and then slowly returned to his own seat.

Nalan Yanran sat at the dining table, still somewhat dazed. Her position was only one seat away from Feng Ling, the Creator God, and Xiao Yan. Below her, separated by Elder Qin's seat, and opposite her were the highest-ranking elders in the sect, beings who were world gods.

Everything that happened today felt like a dream to him.

Sitting next to her was Elder Qin, her teacher from the Wind Spirit Great World, who sat there even more bewildered.

"Elder Qin, there's no need to be nervous. Come, let's have a drink together as the Sect Master and Emperor Yan drink together."

The Supreme Elder of the World God beside him smiled and raised his wine cup, which made Elder Qin feel somewhat apprehensive.

However, she still obediently raised her wine glass and clinked it with the Supreme Elder's. With her past experience, she was so surprised that she forgot to say anything at that moment.

When did she, a deacon elder who hadn't even reached the level of a quasi-god, become able to sit on equal footing with a supreme elder, who even took the initiative to drink with her?

After downing the wine that was enough to bankrupt an outer disciple, her mind finally processed all the changes. Looking at Nalan Yanran beside her, Elder Qin was still somewhat bewildered, but she finally understood that all the changes were caused by her disciple, who seemed to have caused a great disaster.

The root of all this is that his precious disciple and this Emperor Yan are old acquaintances, and their relationship should be quite deep.

All of this felt somewhat like a dream to her.

Of course, it wasn't just Elder Qin who felt it was a dream; all the elders and disciples of the Wind Spirit Moon Shadow Sect present also felt it was somewhat surreal. However, since they weren't directly involved, they quickly understood the reason and reacted just as quickly.

It turns out that the reason why this female disciple named Nalan Yanran made such a low-level mistake was because she and that Yan Emperor were old acquaintances.

The reason why Emperor Yan summoned her was not because he disliked her or wanted to punish her. On the contrary, he was quite happy to see his old friend and even said that he would take her home.

Judging from the attitude of this Yan Emperor towards her, the two of them obviously have a good relationship; at least, the other party is helping Nalan Yanran.

This made many people realize what was happening, and their gazes towards Nalan Yanran instantly became filled with envy and jealousy.

A mere outer disciple has suddenly gained the favor of a creator god. Even a fool could see that Nalan Yanran is destined for great things.

Even though the Flame Emperor didn't show much care, this relationship alone was enough to make the sect leader take Nalan Yanran seriously. What an incredible opportunity this was! Now, even the Supreme Elders of the World Gods were treating her with respect.

All I can say is that it all feels like a dream.

"Haha, keep playing the music, keep dancing."

After this brief interlude, the Creator God of Wind Spirit gave another order, and soon female and male disciples skilled in singing, dancing, and swordsmanship came to the center of the hall to perform.

The atmosphere suddenly became lively. However, while the Wind Spirit Creator God was chatting and laughing with Xiao Yan, the thoughts of everyone present had already changed.

"This Elder Qin is likely to rise to great heights with the help of her disciple."

Most people just felt a little regretful.

Elder Qin used to be considered an ordinary elder in the sect because of his overly upright and protective nature. But now, thanks to his precious disciple, he will probably be treated with deference even by the divine elders.

Didn't you see that Emperor Yan greatly admired the other party?

A simple "You're very good" was enough to ensure Elder Qin's smooth sailing from now on.

However, considering that this person dared to stand up for his disciples in such a situation, they were envious but had nothing to say. After all, Elder Qin had just stepped forward at great risk. Compared to most people's thoughts, among the outer disciples, Nalan Yanran's senior sister could barely suppress a smile.

"My goodness, Yanran is actually an old acquaintance of the Creator God, Emperor Yan. She and her master are likely to rise to great heights in the future."

Suddenly, I have two extra legs!

The senior sister was secretly pleased with herself.

Lin Yue and the other disciples were now deathly pale, especially Lin Yue, who felt as if her world had collapsed.

Among the many female disciples of the outer sect, she was the one who offended Nalan Yanran the most. Relying on the fact that she was the biological daughter of the elder, she provoked Nalan Yanran many times.

It can be said that if the other party were to seek revenge and mention such a thing to that Yan Emperor, not only her, but even her father would suffer.

The schadenfreude I felt just moments ago has now transformed into endless fear.

She has noticed that the other outer disciples who used to surround her are now deliberately distancing themselves from her.

The grand banquet lasted for three days and three nights, only because Xiao Yan deliberately explained that he needed to go back first.

After all, as gods, they have near-infinite lifespans. It is common for them to go into seclusion for hundreds or even thousands of years at a time. If they encounter like-minded fellow Daoists, it is normal for them to discuss the Dao and drink together for ten or eight years at a time.

Therefore, it is indeed perfectly reasonable for the Wind Spirit Creator God to do these things in order to welcome a fellow Daoist of Xiao Yan's level.

However, Xiao Yan was unwilling to waste any more time. He now had a large amount of Origin Crystals and World Origin in his hands, and he was eager to return to the Flame God Realm to refine them.

For him now, reaching the Dao Integration Realm as soon as possible is the most important thing.

Therefore, Xiao Yan quickly prepared to leave with Nalan Yanran.

"Master!"

Nalan Yanran stood outside the mountain gate of the Fenglingyueying Sect, her eyes slightly reddening as she looked at the middle-aged beauty, Elder Qin.

In the years since she came to the Wind Spirit Moon Shadow Sect, the middle-aged beauty has indeed taken great care of her, no less than Yun Yun did back then.

"Yan Ran."

Elder Qin was equally reluctant to part with her disciple. Over the past ten years, she had almost come to regard this disciple as her daughter.

Otherwise, he wouldn't have stood up immediately upon seeing Nalan Yanran in danger.

"Alright, alright, I'm just taking you back for a short trip. If you'd like, you can come back after I've finished setting up the teleportation array."

Seeing the master and disciple's reluctant parting, Xiao Yan shook his head helplessly.

"Elder Qin, you are welcome to visit my Flame God Realm in the future. I think you and Yanran's other teacher, who is also my wife, will get along well."

Xiao Yan smiled gently at Elder Qin, and then left with Nalan Yanran, leaving Elder Qin standing there in a daze.

Of course, there was also the Wind Spirit Creator God and many other deity elders standing to the side.

"Xiao Yan's wife was Nalan Yanran's teacher in her hometown?"

The Creator God of Wind Spirit and the several Supreme Elders exchanged glances, and they understood each other perfectly.

Only after watching Xiao Yan leave did the Wind Spirit Creator God look at Elder Qin again.

"Hehe, Elder Qin, I didn't expect you to have such courage, willing to stand up for your disciple at such a critical moment."

The Creator God of Wind Spirit looked at Elder Qin in front of him with a smile.

At the time, the creator god of wind spirits was indeed only focused on being angry. Now, when he recalled everything, he realized that Elder Qin was indeed courageous.

A woman who would stand up for her disciple like that is truly rare.

"Sect Master, you flatter me."

Elder Qin looked somewhat uneasy after being praised in public by the Creator God Feng Ling.

At this moment, she did feel a sense of fear deep down.

After all, the Wind Spirit Creator God held an extremely high position in the Wind Spirit Moon Shadow Sect. In the past, all matters, big and small, within the sect were handled by the six World Gods' Supreme Elders, and the Sect Master rarely participated in these matters.

For many of them, such as direct disciples and elders, they might not even get to exchange two or three words with the sect leader in their entire lives.

Now that he has been praised by the Creator God Fengling, Elder Qin is indeed somewhat apprehensive.

"Hehe, in my opinion, your strength is quite good among the many elders, and your character is impeccable. It would be a waste of your talents to have you guard the Human Pavilion of the Myriad Laws Pavilion now."

The Creator God of Wind Spirit looked at Elder Qin and smiled, "How about this, starting tomorrow, you will go with Elder Dongfeng to guard Wind God Valley. According to the sect's rules, you can also bring five disciples with you."

The Wind Spirit Creator God's single sentence was enough to make Elder Qin's breathing quicken slightly, and the other deacons around her looked at her with a gaze that could not be described as mere envy.

Wind God Valley, the place where the sect leader attained enlightenment, is a canyon stretching for thousands of miles, where traces of the Great Dao of Wind are everywhere.

In this regard, both the wind attribute energy and the understanding of the Great Way of Wind will far surpass those of ordinary people.

In the past, only the deacons and disciples who were most likely to become gods were qualified to stay in Wind God Valley for a long time.

This is already the best treatment among the elders in charge. Not only can they spend all day observing this auspicious place, but their monthly offerings are also 50% more than those of other elders in charge.

"Thank you, Master!"

Elder Qin immediately knelt on one knee to express his gratitude, but the Creator God of Wind Spirit waved his hand dismissively.

The opportunities in Wind God Valley were a huge benefit to these elders and disciples, but what did they mean to him? They were just small favors.

He didn't care about Nalan Yanran or Elder Qin; he just wanted to leave a better impression on Xiao Yan.

When dealing with this kind of person, you should cultivate a good relationship with them gradually, but you must never offend them.

"Elder Dongfeng, take Elder Qin to complete the formalities later, and then choose the best cave dwelling for her in Fengshen Valley."

The Wind Spirit Creator God instructed a World God.

At this moment, Xiao Yan, with Nalan Yanran, had already traversed billions of miles with each step. In less than three days, they had crossed the endless galaxy and returned to the outside world of the Flame God Realm.

At this moment, Nalan Yanran's beautiful eyes were once again filled with shock upon seeing the enormous miniature world before her.

"This...this is the Dou Qi Continent?" (End of Chapter)
