Battle Through the Heavens: Emperor's Son Xiao Yan

Chapter 62 Traces of a Dou Di

"Are you two from an ancient race?"

On the Yin-Yang altar within the ruins, the Yin-Yang Evil Saint looked at the two with a mixture of surprise and relief on his face.

A fifteen-year-old intermediate seventh-grade and an eighteen-year-old advanced seventh-grade—even he would be amazed by such talent.

However, he felt much relieved when he saw the strange bloodline power within the two of them.

However, to achieve such accomplishments at such a young age, one would be considered one of the most outstanding geniuses even among the descendants of ancient races.

"Indeed, I am a descendant of the Medicine Clan." Faced with the Yin-Yang Evil Saint's question, Yao Ling obediently nodded.

"A descendant of the Medicine Clan?" A strange glint appeared in the Yin-Yang Evil Saint's eyes, then he looked at Xiao Yan and asked, "And you?"

"The Xiao Clan," Xiao Yan said after a moment's thought.

"Are you a member of the Xiao clan?" The Yin-Yang Evil Saint's face showed a hint of excitement.

Is Xiao Shaobei still alive?

"Xiao Shaobei, do you know my clan leader?" Xiao Yan's face showed a hint of surprise.

"Has Shao Bei become the patriarch of the Xiao clan after all these years?" Upon hearing this, Yin Yang Evil Saint showed a hint of relief on his face.

"Looks like this old guy has a pretty good relationship with the clan leader. Could they be buddies?" Xiao Yan thought to himself, but the seriousness on his face lessened a bit.

Judging from this person's attitude towards the Xiao clan, it is currently in his favor.

"To become the patriarch of the Xiao clan, Shao Bei must be at least a Seven-Star Dou Sheng by now." A hint of nostalgia appeared on Yin Yang Evil Saint's face.

"Um, the minimum requirement for our clan leader is a nine-star Dou Sheng!"

"Nine-Star Battle Saint." The Yin-Yang Evil Saint, who had been looking melancholy, showed a hint of shock, while Yao Ling, who was standing to the side, also looked slightly envious.

To run for the position of patriarch of the Xiao clan, one must have at least the cultivation level of a nine-star Dou Sheng. This indicates that the Xiao clan has more than one nine-star Dou Sheng, while the strongest member of the Yao clan is currently only a seven-star Dou Sheng.

No wonder it is said that even if the Xuan Emperor of the Xiao Clan did not take action, the Xiao Clan could still overpower the other six clans.

Aside from the ancient clans, even if the other ancient clans joined forces, they probably wouldn't be able to contend with a nine-star Dou Sheng. And there are definitely more than one or two such experts in the Xiao clan.

"So, Shao Bei has become the most powerful figure in the world." Yin Yang Evil Saint showed a hint of emotion on his face. A thousand years have passed, and the outside world must have changed beyond recognition.

"Now that Shao Bei has succeeded as clan leader, has your clan's old clan leader, Xiao Xuan, passed away?" he continued to ask.

"No, my family's ancestor has already become an emperor," Xiao Yan said calmly.

"What did you say?" The handsome face of the Yin-Yang Evil Saint suddenly froze.

"Impossible, absolutely impossible!"

"In this day and age, how could anyone possibly become an emperor?!"

He let out a low growl, an expression of disbelief on his face.

"He seems to know something?" Xiao Yan narrowed his eyes.

The fact that becoming a Dou Di requires Origin Qi is something that even among the Xiao Clan, which has Dou Di members, many Dou Sheng experts are unaware of, aside from him, the transmigrator.

How could Yin Yang Evil Saint, a rogue cultivator, possibly know the secrets of Origin Qi?

After muttering to himself for a while, the Yin-Yang Evil Saint finally recovered from his shock and asked with a complicated expression, "Lord Xiao Xuan... has he really become a Dou Di?"

"Absolutely true!" Xiao Yan stared at his expression.

"Could it be that that incident led to the emergence of a new Dou Di powerhouse on the continent?"

The Yin-Yang Evil Saint muttered to himself, causing Xiao Yan's pupils to shrink.

"What's wrong?"

"You, a mere Dou Huang, seem to know a great deal about the matters between Dou Sheng and Dou Di?" Instead of answering Xiao Yan's question, Yin Yang Evil Saint smiled and glanced at Xiao Yan.

"As the Xiao Clan's top genius, is it too much for me to know these things?" Xiao Yan said proudly.

"Not excessive, hehe, indeed not excessive. Since you are the Xiao Clan's top genius, you probably don't lack my inheritance. I'll send you out."

The Yin-Yang Evil Saint chuckled.

"No!" Xiao Yan shouted.

"Since childhood, I have listened to the legendary stories of my elders under the care of Chief Shaobei, and I greatly admire their skills."

Whether or not the knowledge is passed down is irrelevant; the main thing is to hear the teachings of the elders.

"How can this person have such a thick skin?" Yao Ling was once again speechless at Xiao Yan's shamelessness.

"Hehe, you're just my type."

Yin Yang Evil Saint smiled slightly and said softly, "However, it's a pity that I can't give you the Strange Fire. I owed the Medicine Clan Chief's wife a favor back then, and today I can only repay it with this."

As he spoke, an invisible wave unfolded once more, driving Xiao Yan away and then protecting the altar.

"Damn it!" Xiao Yan had a bellyful of C programming language skills, but he held them back because of the other party's strength.

"Thank you, senior!" Upon hearing this, the medicinal spirit in the altar was overjoyed.

Unexpectedly, this Yin-Yang Evil Saint actually had a relationship with the clan leader's wife. In that case, she no longer had to worry about Xiao Yan plotting anything against her.

"After refining this Yin-Yang Twin Flames, you will also receive a legacy that I left in these Yin-Yang Twin Flames. However, although these Yin-Yang Twin Flames are only at the very bottom of the Strange Flame Ranking, there are still some dangers in refining them."

You'd better watch yourself.

The Yin-Yang Evil Saint smiled faintly, and his body floated out of the Yin-Yang Altar.

Watching the departing Yin-Yang Evil Saint, Yao Ling showed a grateful expression on her face. She clasped her hands in a bow to him before turning her head to look at the two swimming fish.

With a gentle wave of her storage ring, various treasures for refining strange flames appeared.

Yin Yang Evil Saint glanced at her, a barely perceptible hint of evil on his face, and then floated up to Xiao Yan.

"I've already given the strange fire to this little girl. I also have a legacy here. Do you want it?"

"You old bastard, you gave that woman the thing I wanted most, and now you're trying to fool me with a few cultivation techniques and fighting skills." Xiao Yan thought to himself.

"Is it the dual cultivation method that made you famous all over the world back then?" A look of longing still appeared on his face.

"Heh, I knew I wasn't wrong. You're despicable, shameless, and, most importantly, lecherous!"

He is indeed a suitable candidate to inherit my mantle.

"I'm embarrassed by your praise." Xiao Yan's face showed a shy expression.

"Come with me." The Yin-Yang Evil Saint smiled slightly, his soul drifting gently in the air.

"Where to?" Xiao Yan was taken aback.

"Go to the Yin side," came the Yin-Yang Evil Saint's calm voice, his body already floating a distance away.

"Isn't the shady side very dangerous?"

"It was very dangerous, but don't you want to know what I went through back then?"

"All I want is that amazing dual cultivation technique!"

"My death is related to a Dou Di powerhouse."

"What kind of bullshit Dou Di powerhouse is this? All I want now is dual cultivation. Huh? What did you say?"

"Hehe, come with me."

In an ancient and silent place, a young man in black followed a wisp of ghost slowly toward the shadows opposite.
