Battle Through the Heavens: Emperor's Son Xiao Yan

Chapter 81 The Third Generation Soul Emperor

"Reporting to Emperor Xuan, this matter is absolutely true!" Facing Xiao Xuan, the Yin-Yang Evil Saint no longer displayed his usual swagger and obediently answered Xiao Xuan's question.

"If this is true, you will be a person who has rendered meritorious service to my Xiao clan, and even to the entire continent," Xiao Xuan said in a deep voice.

"It is my honor to be able to provide the Xuan Emperor with even a sliver of useful information," the Yin-Yang Evil Saint's thumb-sized soul said humbly, bowing deeply.

Xiao Xuan glanced at him, a smile on his face that made the Yin Yang Evil Saint feel flattered.

"No wonder you passed on your legacy to that brat Xiao Yan."

"Shaobei, send him to the Soul Nourishing Ground to nurture his soul first. Once I have verified the truth, I will find a way to rebuild a physical body for you."

"Thank you, Your Majesty Xuan! May Your Majesty Xuan live forever!" The Yin-Yang Evil Saint bowed deeply to Xiao Xuan in Xiao Shaobei's palm.

Xiao Xuan nodded and ignored him.

Seeing that his patriarch no longer wanted to speak, Xiao Shaobei sensibly disappeared from the main hall.

"Shaobei, what did Emperor Xuan mean by what he just said? Does he know that brat Xiao Yan?" On the way, Yin Yang Evil Saint looked at his good brother curiously.

"Naturally, Xiao Yan was personally appointed as the Imperial Son by the clan ancestor," Xiao Shaobei explained to him with a smile.

"What is the Emperor's Son? Is he very powerful?" Yin Yang Evil Saint asked in confusion.

"The Xiao Clan previously only had two imperial sons, and now they are both nine-star Dou Sheng, with status and power almost equal to mine," Xiao Shaobei said with a smile.

"Hiss!" A hint of shock appeared on the Yin Yang Evil Saint's originally calm face.

"I didn't expect that kid to be so strong in your Xiao clan."

"To be valued by the clan ancestor, there must be something special about him, right?" Xiao Shaobei smiled noncommittally.

"Hehe, that kid inherited my legacy, so he's practically my disciple. When he becomes a nine-star Dou Sheng in the future, my connections will be terrifying."

The Yin-Yang Evil Saint suddenly became somewhat excited.

Having a brother who is a nine-star Dou Sheng and a disciple of a nine-star Dou Sheng—this kind of connection is enough to make one practically invincible throughout the entire Dou Qi Continent.

"When the time comes, I will definitely go to the Medicine Clan to take revenge, and I will make sure that the Medicine Clan Chief Yao Dan's wife is..." Yin Yang Evil Saint laughed strangely.

"Your physical body hasn't even recovered yet, and you're already thinking about these things." Xiao Shaobei glanced helplessly at his former good brother.

"Stop talking nonsense. Back then, when you were having an affair with that Flower Sect elder, I was the one who kept watch for you." Yin Yang Evil Saint glanced at the powerful Xiao Clan Chief.

"Hehe." Xiao Shaobei revealed a sly smile, and the two seemed to recall the days when they wreaked havoc on Zhongzhou a thousand years ago.

"Hehehe."

"Hehehe."

"Speaking of which, why didn't you come to me for help when you encountered this terrible curse back then?" Xiao Shaobei suddenly asked.

With the strength of the Xiao clan, even before Xiao Xuan became a Dou Di, there were still quite a few experts in the clan who could deal with this strange power.

Upon hearing this, Yin Yang Evil Saint rolled his eyes and said indifferently, "The first thing I did after I was afflicted with the curse was to come to the Xiao Clan to ask for your help. But at that time, something happened to the Xiao Clan, and they directly closed the Xiao Realm and the entire clan disappeared."

"At that time, we were using the full strength of our clan to help our ancestor break through to the Dou Di realm. After that, we had a great war with the Soul Clan. If it weren't for the clan leader's temporary breakthrough and killing the Soul Emperor, the Xiao Clan would probably have disappeared from the world by now."

"The Soul Clan!" The Yin-Yang Evil Saint was slightly taken aback. "Is that the most mysterious ancient clan on the continent back then?"

"Not bad." Xiao Shaobei nodded.

"I remember you had an affair with a certain saintess of the Soul Clan back then," said the Yin-Yang Evil Saint.

"These are all things of the past," Xiao Shaobei sighed. "The Soul Clan was wiped out in the great war a thousand years ago. Everything has become history."

"Even the Soul Clan has been wiped out?" Yin Yang Evil Saint was slightly taken aback. The Soul Clan, which was once feared by the other ancient clans, had now also disappeared into the long river of history.

He sighed softly, but a memory suddenly resounded in his mind, causing his soul to tremble as if struck by lightning.

"Oh no, Shao Bei, I remember now. The inscription on the ruins where this Dou Di's corpse was buried is in the script of the Soul Clan!"

Upon hearing this, Xiao Shaobei's pupils contracted slightly.

The southwestern continent is characterized by its rugged terrain and numerous mountains, with the saying that the Ten Thousand Mountains stretch endlessly.

This area is hot and humid year-round, with lush trees and abundant vegetation, and large tracts of tropical rainforest growing here.

Sky Burial Mountain is a majestic mountain located in this endless rainforest.

Legend has it that a peerless expert was once buried here, and no one who entered the depths of Tianzang Mountain has ever come out alive. Until this day, a man in a blue robe came to Tianzang Mountain.

"This is it." Xiao Xuan stood in the sky, his Emperor Realm soul sweeping over the majestic mountain before him. In an instant, everything within the mountain peak was taken in by his eyes.

"There's definitely something strange about this." After pondering for a moment, Xiao Xuan stepped into it.

The center of the towering mountain had long been hollowed out, and upon entering it, Xiao Xuan saw eight long chains as thick as an arm.

The chains were engraved with intricate and profound runes, which even Xiao Xuan, with his level of cultivation, needed to study for a while to understand.

At the end of the chain was a tall corpse, a majestic body covered in red hair, its dark eyes like an abyss.

The moment Xiao Xuan met his gaze, the hair on his body began to turn faintly red.

"What kind of power could cause a Dou Di expert to die so tragically?" Xiao Xuan's mind, which had been dormant for over a thousand years, finally felt threatened again.

His source energy surged, and his body returned to normal. The damage from the power that could plunge the Yin-Yang Evil Saint into dire straits with just a glance was nothing to him.

His gaze fell on a stone tablet beside the ancient emperor's corpse, and his pupils contracted strangely.

Because the stone tablet was engraved with the script of the Soul Clan.

After reading it carefully, this Dou Di expert felt a chill run down his spine.

"The corpse before us is actually a third-generation Soul Emperor!"

"I'm leaving now. Take good care of yourselves." In Saint Pill City, Xiao Yan looked at the two beautiful women in front of him.

Cao Ying and Dan Chen nodded.

"No palace intrigue allowed. You're the older sister, so you have to take good care of Danchen." Xiao Yan glanced at Cao Ying.

"Okay." Cao Ying smiled and hugged Dan Chen, whose eyes were red.

"That's more like it." Xiao Yan kissed the two beauties on the cheek with satisfaction.

Only then did he look at the huge procession behind him.

The old doctor, the three giants of the Pill Tower, as well as many elders and students from the genius class, were all looking at him.

At this moment, the two sages of literature and martial arts behind them had already opened the spatial passage.

"Take care, everyone!" After a moment of silence, Xiao Yan clasped his hands in a fist salute to the crowd.

Then, they stepped into the spatial passage.
