Battle Through the Heavens: Who put Laozi in my storage ring?

"You wish," Xiao Yan glanced at Nalan Yanran, noticing the girl's face flushed. "You can't do without any of it."

Nalan Yanran was taken aback. What did this mean?

Xiao Yan raised an eyebrow, ignoring Nalan Yanran, and instead looked up into the air, "Why is this girl here?"

Yao Ye looked surprised. Which girl?

wrong……

Yao Ye's pupils suddenly contracted as a massive eight-winged black serpent appeared in the sky above Yancheng. What was even more astonishing was the slender girl in green standing atop the serpent's head.

The latter smiled broadly and waved repeatedly, calling out, "Young Master Xiao Yan!!"

Behind him stood two stunning beauties. One of them wore a snow-white dress and had an ethereal air about her. Her waist was so slender that it seemed as if it would break with the slightest touch. Her delicate features evoked a sense of fragility that made people instinctively want to protect her.

The other one was even more familiar. She wore a pale red dress, her tall and slender figure as voluptuous as a ripe peach, and wore red high heels. She was alluring yet wild, and her phoenix eyes glanced coldly down. It was none other than Queen Medusa of the Gama Empire, who was infamous for her fearsome reputation. However, her snake tails had now become human feet...

One is as elegant as a fairy, the other as alluring as a snake demon.

They were all clearly here for Xiao Yan.

Even someone as confident as Yao Ye swallowed hard, a hint of inferiority flashing in her beautiful eyes.

Her resources were as abundant as Medusa's, far exceeding those of Little Fairy Doctor.

But... this extraordinary demeanor is something that ordinary people can hardly match. Even though she has been tempered by the battlefield for a long time, she is still somewhat inferior to it.

"Young Master Xiao Yan!!"

Before Bai Ya could land, Qing Lin jumped down and threw herself into Xiao Yan's arms, her emerald green eyes sparkling: "You can't leave Qing Lin behind this time. I want to go to the Black Corner Region with you."

"I tried to persuade him, but I couldn't." Before Xiao Yan could speak.

With a flash, Cai Lin caused ripples in the surrounding space, a unique characteristic of Dou Zong powerhouses: spatial displacement.

With her arms crossed over her chest, she glanced at Qing Lin, who was clinging tightly to Xiao Yan, with her narrow phoenix eyes and said with a hint of helplessness.

"This girl insisted on coming with me no matter what, and I couldn't shake her off."

"Hehe, Queen Medusa is trying to get rid of me too, isn't she? If it weren't for Qinglin, I would have really fallen for your trick." Little Fairy Doctor snorted lightly, her figure floating down from White Fang's head and landing beside Xiao Yan.

"It would be best to get rid of you, I've never hidden that thought," Cai Lin snorted, her tone languid.

"So what if you're a Dou Zong? I'll catch up to you sooner or later in a few months," Little Fairy Doctor said disdainfully.

"I'm sorry, but a Dou Zong is truly remarkable. A Dou Zong can teleport and protect Xiao Yan, unlike some people... who are merely Dou Ling. If they went with him, they would only be a burden." Cai Lin said calmly.

"You!!!" Little Fairy Doctor's eyes flashed with anger as she pointed her slender jade finger at Cai Lin.

The latter raised an eyebrow, a chill flashing across her face: "If it weren't for your relationship with Xiao Yan, you would already be a corpse if you dared to point a finger at me."

"stop!"

Xiao Yan stood between the two women and rubbed his head.

"If you continue to make noise, you'd better stay obediently in the Gama Empire!"

"..."

Both women snorted and turned their heads away, but the fighting spirit in their eyes remained burning.

……

midair.

A massive, jet-black figure swept past.

On the body of the Eight-Winged Black Serpent King, Xiao Yan sat quietly cross-legged, with a furnace cauldron above him. Several medicinal herbs were added to it, and the furnace fire burned the herbs into medicinal liquid, which was then condensed into a pill using a special technique.

"Om..."

Accompanied by the fragrance of cinnabar, a pale blue pill slowly took shape in the furnace.

Yao Ye swallowed hard, a burning glint in her beautiful eyes. This was the Hunyuan Bone-Shaping Pill that her grandfather had asked Master Xiao Yan to refine. The fragrance emitted by the sixth-grade pill attracted some powerful figures around them. However, upon seeing the eight-winged black serpent king that blotted out the sky, they instantly abandoned any other thoughts and obediently shrank back.

"Here... this is the Primordial Bone-Shaping Pill. After you return, use the Strange Fire Seed I gave you to catalyze its effects, and the medicinal effect will be even better." Xiao Yan handed the jade bottle containing the pill to Yao Ye, then took the beauty's hand, and a pale blue Strange Fire flowed into Yao Ye's body through her palm, leaving a line on the back of her fair hand.

"I thank Master Xiao Yan for my presence."

Yao Ye felt the warmth from his palm, her pretty face flushed slightly, and she bowed to express her gratitude.

"This place should be the border of the Gama Empire."

Xiao Yan glanced down.

Chapter 76 The Vanished Han Feng; Little Fairy Doctor: I'll Live Off This for the Rest of My Life

He signaled to Yao Ye that it was time to leave.

Originally, I planned to make a trip back to the Gama Empire to send Yaoye back, but the woman said she was going to the northeastern border of the empire, which happens to be the area bordering the neighboring Snake People and the Black Corner Region.

"In that case, Yao Ye will wait for Master Xiao Yan to return in the Jia Ma Empire..."

A hint of regret flashed in Yao Ye's beautiful eyes. She pursed her red lips, and without any hesitation, she lightly leaped onto the majestic city wall.

Seeing that the woman stood still on the wall until she became a tiny black dot without wavering, Xiao Yan sighed softly and turned away, no longer looking at her.

Next stop, Black Corner.

Countless powerful individuals fought to the death, their blood and tears forming a battlefield strewn with corpses. There was no order, no rules; as long as you were strong enough, cunning enough, and ruthless enough, you could make a name for yourself in that cannibalistic place.

Adjacent to it is Canaan College.

To reach Canaan Academy, one must traverse the Black Corner Region.

Of course, for Xiao Yan now, the Black Corner Region is no longer a den of dragons and tigers; he can simply charge straight in and brute force his way through.

He gently patted the eight-winged black serpent king beneath him and said softly, "Let's go... try to enter the Black Domain Plains before nightfall."

"As ordered!"

White Tooth grinned, his eight wings suddenly trembled, a gale swept around him, and when he reappeared, he was already a hundred meters away, transforming into a jet-black streak of light and heading towards the horizon.

……

Canaan College.

In the lush, verdant backyard hill, amidst a bamboo grove, a young girl dressed in green stands gracefully. Just by standing there, she seems to elevate this tranquil landscape painting to a whole new level, blooming quietly like a lotus, her beauty beyond compare.

She gently tucked a strand of her hair, which was fluttering in the wind, behind her ear and gazed into the distance.

"Brother Xiao Yan should be arriving in the Black Corner Region soon, right..."

The beautiful woman parted her red lips slightly, "Xun'er has been waiting for you for a very, very long time."

She naturally knew everything about the Gama Empire; with Ling Ying around, nothing, big or small, could escape her notice.

In fact, with her cultivation level, she had already reached the standard to join the inner academy, but until now, she has always been hiding her talents, just like the Xiao family, waiting to shine together with Xiao Yan.

"Also, Senior Baishan, if you dare to spy in the shadows again... then don't blame Xun'er for being impolite."

Xiao Xun'er glanced calmly at a lush grove of trees, her tone carrying a hint of coldness.

"Hehe, I was overthinking it. I was worried that with so few people around, someone might do something indecent to Xun'er. But now it seems that there are probably very few people in the entire outer courtyard who can do anything to Xun'er..."

Bai Shan emerged from the shade of the trees, not feeling embarrassed at all, but instead smiling and speaking.

Seeing that the beauty ignored him and went straight down the mountain.

A gloomy look flashed across Bai Shan's face.

"Xiao Yan, you've taken a vacation for over a year. Such a coward! I'd like to see what makes you so worthy of Xun'er's concern. A mediocre person like you doesn't deserve Miss Xun'er..."

Down the mountain.

Ruolin stared at Xiao Xun'er with teary eyes: "Xun'er, you must persuade that heartless man to come back. I've been more and more terrified during this year-long vacation."

"Teacher Ruolin, don't worry, Brother Xiao Yan... will be here soon," Xun'er said with a smile.

Ruolin was unaware of what had happened in the outer courtyard, just like Bai Shan. The only ones who knew about Xiao Yan's current cultivation level were probably her and the Grand Elder of Canaan Academy.

After all, Canaan Academy is surrounded by the Black Corner Domain, making it isolated from the outside world.

"Really?" Ruolin stared at Xiao Xun'er with her big, watery eyes, afraid that the girl was fooling her.

"Don't worry, Teacher Ruolin, he will definitely be back for this year's qualifying competition," Xiao Xun'er said with a smile.

"Sigh, I wonder if that guy has broken through to the Great Dou Master level. Logically speaking, he was a Dou Master back then, so in just over a year, he probably hasn't... I should have stayed in the academy. Why bother traveling around and wasting precious cultivation time?" Ruolin muttered, her eyes filled with resentment.

"Pfft~" Xiao Xun'er lightly covered her red lips, a smile flashing in her beautiful eyes.

"Xun'er?"

"It's nothing, Teacher Ruolin. I was just thinking about some... happy things," Xiao Xun'er said with a smile. If Teacher Ruolin saw Brother Xiao Yan at this moment, what would she say?

……

Black Corner Region.

Located on a vast grassland, it consists of countless cities of all sizes, with a mixed distribution of power and a diverse range of people.

The massive body of White Fang flashed across the sky.

Xiao Yan sat cross-legged on it, quietly flipping through the blueprints, which still had some creases on them. They were "obtained" from the tribe he had passed through earlier.

Although the Black Corner Region has a long history of the underdog defeating the strong by attacking the strong, no one would be foolish enough to try to attack a sixth-order magical beast. Therefore, Xiao Yan easily purchased the map of the entire Black Corner Region.
