Chapter 45: The Xiao Family Ancestor Reappears
Steady footsteps sounded in the corridor. Led by the assassins, Xiao Yan came to the mansion to meet Su Yun.

"Senior Su, we meet again."

Xiao Yan saluted with his fists clasped, his voice hoarse and low, his black robe stained with dust and a few stains of undried blood.

The Yunlan Sect's wanted order forced Xiao Yan to hide from place to place. His face was haggard, his breath was weak, and his straight back was bent a little.

But Su Yun could sense that Xiao Yan's biggest change was not this... The youthful spirit he once had was already contained in his heart, replaced by murderous intent and hatred.

"You guys go down."

Hai Bodong and the other two immediately bowed and took their leave.

After they left, Su Yuncai said, "No matter how rampant the Yunlan Sect is, they wouldn't dare to run wild in our territory. Here, you can relax a little."

"Thank you."

Xiao Yan whispered a thank you, and his tense nerves suddenly relaxed. The fatigue from running for days instantly flooded his heart. His legs softened and he fell heavily to the ground.

"I heard that you went to the Yunlan Sect again, killed Yun Leng, and even injured Yun Shan."

A hint of interest flashed in Su Yun's eyes.

Xiao Yan smiled bitterly, knowing that what happened in the Jia Ma Empire could not be hidden from Su Yun, so he nodded in agreement.

"Well, I did do these things, but the power I used to attack the Yunlan Sect is not long-lasting... I can't use it again in the short term."

Having said that, Xiao Yan clenched his fists, his knuckles turned slightly white due to the force, and guilt and self-blame flashed across his face.

When his father disappeared, he lost his mind and rushed to the Yunlan Sect to demand his father's return. His teacher did not blame him for his recklessness, but instead tried his best to help him, using up his last bit of strength and falling into a deep sleep...

But in the end, he only killed Yun Leng!
He feels sorry for the teacher!

"Well, I think this is also the case. Otherwise, you wouldn't need to let me escort you down the mountain as per the three-year agreement."

Su Yun nodded: "What brings you here this time? Do you want us to help you cause a big disturbance in Yunlan Sect and find your father?"

"I dare not trouble you, Senior."

Xiao Yan shook his head. He already knew that although it seemed that it was the Yunlan Sect that kidnapped his father, in fact, the Yunlan Sect was only under the instructions of the Soul Palace.

Xiao Yan didn't have the face to let Su Yun go against a behemoth like the Soul Palace for him.

Xiao Yan said, "I came here only to ask you to help me escape from the Jia Ma Empire.

There is no need for you to do it yourself, just arrange a caravan to the border of the Jiama Empire and let me blend in."

Just as Su Yun said before, the Yunlan Sect did not dare to offend Su Yun, and they would never make things difficult for the Mitel family's caravan openly.

Su Yun remained calm, his legs casually crossed, seemingly lost in thought.

Xiao Yan was feeling anxious. He really had no other options, otherwise he wouldn't have come to Su Yun for help.

"If I can leave the Jiama Empire safely, I will definitely repay you in the future!"

"That's fine."

Su Yun said softly, "You left your hometown, do you have a place to go?"

Xiao Yan breathed a sigh of relief. It seemed that Senior Su had agreed. Unconsciously, his tone relaxed a lot: "Yes, I will go to Canaan College to study."

Su Yun looked puzzled: "Who is the Canaan Academy?"

Xiao Yan understood. It was normal that Senior Su didn’t know about Canaan Academy since he woke up a thousand years ago.

He explained, “Janaan College is located in the Black Horn Region of the Northwest Continent and is a famous institution in the entire Douqi Continent.

It is said that it was founded by a powerful Dou Zun, and there are many Dou Zong masters in the academy. Even some families in Zhongzhou will travel thousands of miles to send their clansmen to Canaan Academy.

Xiao Yan flipped his wrist and took out a yellowed map from his storage ring. He placed it on the white jade table and slowly unfolded it.

"Senior, please look."

He pointed his finger at the map and said, "Canaan College is right here, a long way from our Jiama Empire..."

"and many more!"

Suddenly, Su Yun interrupted Xiao Yan. He frowned and stared at the place where Xiao Yan was pointing.

Xiao Yan looked stunned, not knowing why Su Yun had such a big reaction.

"Senior, is there something amiss?" Xiao Yan asked cautiously. Whether he could leave the Jia Ma Empire depended on Su Yun's decision. At this crucial moment, he couldn't let anything go wrong.

Since they met, Su Yun had always been calm and composed. His loss of composure today was really unfamiliar to Xiao Yan.

"Are you sure that Canaan College is here?"

Xiao Yan didn't understand why, but he still said, "Well, there's no mistake about this."

"Like, really too much like..."

Su Yun drew a circle around the area where Canaan Academy was located and said, "Is this place now called Black Horn Region?"

"Yes."

"This place is well-connected and has a unique terrain, making it an ideal location for exchanging intelligence. It's also a chaotic zone that harbors crime, chaos, and killing...

At least it was like this a thousand years ago...Is it probably the same now?"

Su Yun closed his eyes, as if reminiscing about the time a thousand years ago.

"Indeed, there are countless powerful individuals on the run in the Black Horn Region. There are almost no laws to constrain them, and all that exists is the law of the jungle."

Xiao Yan nodded, with a guess in his mind.

Senior Su probably stayed in the Black Horn Region for a period of time.

"Do you still remember the ruins that this sect told you about?"

"remains……"

Xiao Yan was thinking hard, and in an instant, his pupils suddenly shrank.

"You mean the ruins where the Xiao clan Dou Zun is!"

"Ah."

Su Yun's eyes fell on the map again.

Xiao Yan was anxious and asked quickly, "Could it be that the ruins are in the Black Horn Region?"

"Ah."

Under Xiao Yan's expectant gaze, Su Yun said softly: "Back then, due to injuries, our sect had to give up exploring the ruins and achieve Nirvana as soon as possible.

But before leaving, he memorized the location of the ruins, so that he could go and explore it one day...

Looking back now, the backhand move back then wasn't without significance."

【Ding. 】

[Your lie made Xiao Yan believe it, so it was judged as falsehood, and you received 100 truth points.]

[Remaining realization points: 39104.]

A glimmer flashed in Su Yun's eyes.

Only Xiao Yan believed it. What about Yao Lao... His soul power was exhausted and he fell into a deep sleep again?

“However, with the changing world, the geographical environment has changed to varying degrees. This sect only knows the approximate location of the ruins.

If we want to find the entrance to the ruins, I'm afraid it will take some effort."

Su Yun said regretfully.

"Relics, ancestor..."

Xiao Yan's expression was slightly stern. A thousand years had passed, and the Dou Zun ancestor who had entered the ruins might have met with an accident and was no longer alive.

But even if there is only a slight possibility, we cannot give up the opportunity to find the ancestor.

That old ancestor is a Dou Zun. If he were still alive, the Xiao family’s current difficulties would be easily solved!

Even my father might be saved!

And he is not alone in this.

This Senior Su seems to have a strong interest in the ruins...
