People in Doupo: Unparalleled Talents Actually Bring a System

She immediately said, "Are you serious? It is said that Master Xiao Ling has not returned for several years since he went to Zhongzhou..."

"This news should not be false. After all, it came from the Mitel family. It said that the Ice Emperor Hai Bodong went to the Xiao family today to visit Master Xiao Ling, and the two had a very pleasant conversation." In response to Yun Yun's inquiry, Nalan Yanran said seriously.

"Ice Emperor Hai Bodong has always had a good relationship with Master Xiao Ling, so this matter should not be false."

Hearing Nalan Yanran's explanation, Yun Yun nodded slightly, believing it a little, and then said:

"In that case, we can pay you a visit later, but we must not be impolite."

Yun Yun was just thinking about how to find a suitable excuse to avoid the entanglement with Gu He. If she used the excuse of visiting Master Xiao Ling, it would be a good reason.

Thinking of this, Yun Yun's expression couldn't help but relax a lot. Unconsciously, she began to imagine the scene of meeting Xiao Ling and became curious.

Thinking of this, Yun Yun's originally slightly tense expression couldn't help but relax a lot, and the corners of her mouth slightly raised, outlining a faint smile.

Unconsciously, she began to fantasize about meeting Xiao Ling in her heart. Even she herself did not realize that a seed called "expectation" had been planted at this moment.

Chapter 558 Medusa's Discomfort

In the capital of Gama, the sun shines down, making the whole city sparkle.

The streets are bustling with cars and pedestrians, and the buildings on both sides of the streets are lined up one after another, showing the prosperity.

The pavilions with flying eaves and carved beams and painted buildings and exquisite patterns sparkle with a unique brilliance in the sun, demonstrating the city's profound heritage and wealth.

The shops on the street are full of dazzling goods, and the signboards sway in the wind, making slight sounds, as if calling passers-by.

In the silk shop, rolls of colorful silk were neatly arranged, attracting many wealthy ladies to stop and choose.

In the pharmacy, all kinds of rare medicinal materials emit a faint medicinal fragrance, and the shop assistants are busy greeting customers who come to ask about medicine.

The tavern was even more lively, with the sounds of laughter and shouting intertwined and constantly coming out from the open door, adding a bit of fireworks flavor to this bustling street.

Pedestrians come and go. There are noblemen dressed in gorgeous brocade robes, holding folding fans, looking graceful, chatting and laughing with their companions while strolling, and from time to time they cast curious glances at the new things on the street.

There was also a woman carrying a basket, who was holding her child's hand and instructing her about something as they walked. However, the child was attracted by the roadside stall selling candy figures. He tugged at the woman's clothes and looked at the candy figures of various shapes with longing. The woman had no choice but to smile and pay for them. Looking at the child's happy expression, her face was also full of doting.

The entire holy city of Jama is bustling with people, and it is full of liveliness and vitality, making people intoxicated in this prosperous atmosphere.

The former Gama Empire has always been in a relatively weak position among the surrounding countries, and it has been difficult for it to shine.

However, times have changed. The current Gama Empire seems to have been reborn, and its development speed is rapid. Its booming momentum is completely different from the past and can no longer be mentioned in the same breath.

When Xiao Ling was still staying in the Gama Empire, he took the opportunity to wipe out several top powerhouses from the Izumo Empire, Yanluo Empire and Mulan Empire around the Gama Empire.

After this battle, the high-end combat forces of those empires suddenly fell into a situation of lack of successors and their strength was greatly damaged.

On the other hand, in the Gama Empire, with the help of Xiao Ling's elixirs, Dou Zong masters have emerged one after another, and the combat power of Dou Huang and Dou Wang levels, most of them have also improved, which makes the foundation of the Gama Empire continue to increase and become stronger.

Under such circumstances, the Gama Empire gradually built up advantages in the high-end strong level that were difficult for other surrounding countries to achieve.

After that, Jia Xingtian, the guardian of the royal family of the Gama Empire, seeing that the current situation was very good, intended to further consolidate the position of the Gama Empire.

Therefore, he made a decisive decision and immediately summoned Yunshan, the old leader of the Yunlan Sect, and Hai Bodong, the supreme elder of the Mitel Family, two top warriors who had reached the Dou Zong level.

At the same time, he also united representatives of major forces in the Gama Empire, including the Snake People, to discuss together.

After everyone gathered together and after some discussion and planning, they resolutely launched a war against the Luoyan Empire and the Izumo Empire surrounding the Gama Empire.

Although the Luoyan Empire and the Izumo Empire had accumulated some profound foundation of their own in the past and had a place among the surrounding countries.

But before that, they had already been hit hard by Xiao Ling, and their top warriors were almost all killed, and their strength had been greatly reduced, just like a building without its pillars, and was about to collapse.

Today, with the support of many favorable factors, the Gama Empire has been fully developed, its national strength is growing, and it is full of strong people. Its overall strength is far beyond what it used to be.

In such a comparison, how could the two severely damaged empires be a match for the Gama Empire?

When the two sides fought, the situation was almost one-sided.

Relying on its powerful strength, the Gama Empire was unstoppable. It didn't take long for it to completely defeat the two empires and destroy them directly.

With the fall of these two countries, the territory of the Gama Empire was further expanded, and its development momentum naturally became more rapid.

After a series of external territorial expansion operations, the major forces within the Gama Empire began to divide up the post-war gains.

After all, the resources and land gained through war are all extremely valuable "trophies", and each force hopes to get a piece of it so as to further strengthen itself.

However, it will take time to fully digest and absorb these gains.

This involves the allocation and integration of many aspects. Whether it is the placement of personnel or the rational use of resources, it requires a lot of time and energy to carefully plan and arrange.

Because of this, external conquests naturally came to a halt.

Afterwards, the Gama Empire returned to a calm state and entered a stage of stable development again.

Over the years, until now, the entire Gama Empire has maintained such a steady development trend.

……

Add to the imperial capital, the Xiao family mansion.

The exquisite rockery is scattered in an orderly manner, surrounded by gurgling water, which sparkles in the sunlight.

Walking along the winding corridor, you will see carved railings and painted buildings on both sides, with exquisite patterns of flowers, birds, fish, insects and other lifelike patterns.

The attics are even more eye-catching, with flying eaves and pointed corners. The vermilion pillars support the tall buildings, and the glazed tiles reflect the bright light in the sun, showing the magnificence.

Inside the pavilion, there are various precious ornaments, each of which exudes a simple and elegant atmosphere.

On the roof of an open-air attic of the Xiao family, a breeze blew gently, bringing with it the fragrance of flowers and plants.

Xiao Ling stood there quietly, with his hands folded across his chest, his eyes slowly sweeping over the Xiao family, which had undergone tremendous changes.

"Haha, I haven't seen the clan leader for a few years, but his cultivation has improved day by day and has become more profound. Looking at this momentum, it won't take long for him to break through the bottleneck that has been shackled on him and successfully join the ranks of Douhuang powerhouses." After a moment, Xiao Ling raised the corners of his mouth slightly and said with a faint smile,

"The Xiao family today has undergone tremendous changes from what it was before. It seems that the clan leader and elders have managed the Xiao family very well."

Xiao Zhan, who was standing beside Xiao Ling, had a look of emotion on his face. He shook his head slightly, and then said in a sincere and modest tone:

"My cultivation has been able to improve thanks to the strong support of my family's resources. But then again, without your help, how could the Xiao family be so prosperous today? We in the family would naturally not be able to benefit from it, let alone live such a stable and prosperous life today."

In response to Xiao Zhan's compliment, Xiao Ling just smiled faintly and didn't take it too seriously.

At the beginning, he helped the Xiao family only because of some blood relationship. He did it at his own will and just gave the Xiao family some help and support. The Xiao family also took advantage of that opportunity to grow and develop step by step. Now it has undergone such earth-shaking changes. Among them, the decision-makers of the family, including Xiao Zhan, naturally spent a lot of thought, which can be regarded as a kind of contribution.

At this moment, a burst of hurried footsteps came from far away. Then, a guard came to the door behind the two of them and knocked gently.

Hearing the voice, Xiao Zhan subconsciously turned around and looked. After seeing who it was, he asked, "Pain, what's the matter?"

The guard named Payne first bowed respectfully to Xiao Zhan and Xiao Ling, then he straightened up and said with a serious face:

"Head, someone from the Yunlan Sect is here to visit you. He is already waiting outside the mansion. I came here to inform you."

"Oh? People from the Yunlan Sect are here to visit?" Xiao Zhan was slightly startled, then raised his eyebrows slightly, and after thinking for a while, he had some rough guesses in his mind.

He immediately turned his gaze towards Xiao Ling, a meaningful smile appeared on his face, and he slowly said:

"It seems that they have also heard some news about you. They must have come here specially to visit you. After all, you have returned from Zhongzhou this time, and they must have wanted to curry favor with you."

When Xiao Ling heard what Xiao Zhan said, his face did not show much emotion.

After all, he had met Hai Bodong before, and the news of his return to the imperial capital could not be concealed, so he did not find it surprising.

Although the Yunlan Sect came to visit him this time, in Xiao Ling's heart, this had nothing to do with him. With his current status and position, he was too disdainful to deliberately establish any relationship with the Yunlan Sect.

However, since the other person had come to visit him and he happened to be free at the moment, he did not intend to offend the other person directly and refuse him bluntly.

However, meeting one person is the same as meeting more than one person. It would be better to meet all the forces more often, so as to add some strength to the Xiao family.

"The Yun Lan Sect has received the news, so I think the other major forces in the imperial capital will not lag behind. Now that the Yun Lan Sect has taken the lead, the other forces will surely not remain indifferent. It is estimated that they will all come to visit soon."

Xiao Ling frowned slightly, thought for a moment, and then continued,

"In that case, why not just meet them all? My appearance can be seen as a way to support the Xiao family. After all, I will be leaving the Xiao family tomorrow. Just consider it as a little help I can do for the Xiao family before I leave."

Hearing Xiao Ling's words, Xiao Zhan's eyes instantly lit up. He knew in advance that Xiao Ling was now a genuine Dou Zun powerhouse. With such strength, he was the best in the entire Northwest Continent.

As long as Xiao Ling shows a little bit of strength in the future, the major forces of the Gama Empire will be so shocked that their jaws will drop to the ground.

The Xiao family has been able to develop steadily in the Jia Ma Empire over the years, largely due to the residual influence that Xiao Ling left here.

After all, the Xiao family itself does not have any powerful strength in terms of high-end combat power, and has always lacked a strong person who can control the situation.

Now that Xiao Ling has returned and is willing to support the Xiao family, this is naturally the best thing for the Xiao family. It will definitely bring great help to the Xiao family. In the future, the Xiao family will be able to act more assertively in the Jia Ma Empire and will be more confident in facing various forces. They no longer have to worry as much as before.

"Haha, if you don't mind, I'll arrange it later."

Xiao Zhan's heart was filled with joy and he spoke quickly, unable to hide the smile on his face.

However, he still mentioned it slightly, "But you have just returned to the Xiao family not long ago, are you leaving now? Why don't you stay a little longer?"

"I still have a lot of things to deal with in Zhongzhou. This trip back to the Xiao family has already delayed me for quite a while. If I stay here for too long, it will seriously interfere with my plans."

Xiao Ling just replied casually to Xiao Zhan's words without taking it too seriously. If he hadn't wanted to go back to the Northwest Continent to meet Zhu Kun, Xiao Ling himself didn't know when he would return to the Xiao family.

"That's true. You young people have a lot of things to do when you are out there. It's better not to delay. Whenever you miss your family, just come back to visit." Xiao Zhan was not too disappointed about this. He just smiled faintly and said.

After he finished speaking, he couldn't help but sigh, his face full of emotion, and he said with a little melancholy: "It's been a long time since I last met Yan'er. That kid has been in Zhongzhou for such a long time, and I don't know when I can meet him again."

"Don't worry, clan leader. Xiao Yan is doing very well in Zhongzhou. You don't have to worry about him. When the time is right, he will come home to see you."

When Xiao Ling heard Xiao Zhan mention Xiao Yan, he couldn't help but chuckle and said.

Xiao Yan is now considered a prominent figure in Zhongzhou, but after the Alchemy Conference ended, even Xiao Ling himself had not heard much about Xiao Yan. However, with his abilities and drive, he would surely be able to do well in whatever he did.

After saying that, Xiao Ling did not stay here for too long. The power of space around him began to surge slowly and lingered around him.

Then, his figure flashed, as if he had merged into this space, and disappeared without a trace in the blink of an eye.

Only Xiao Zhan and Payne were left standing there, slightly dazed, obviously not yet coming to their senses.

……

At the same time, in the Warcraft Mountains, the snake people’s sphere of influence, and the Medusa Temple, a relaxed and joyful atmosphere was prevalent.

Medusa was originally chatting and laughing with Zi Yan, Xiao Yixian and Qing Lin, but suddenly, she felt a slight stuffiness in her chest, and the words that were about to come out of her mouth paused involuntarily.

Seeing this, the three women all looked at him with doubt.

Zi Yan couldn't hold back her curiosity and asked first, "Sister Medusa, why did you suddenly stop? You were just talking about how Xiao Ling used the strange fire to help you evolve your bloodline, and you were talking about the key point. Why did you stop talking halfway through?"

In response, Medusa simply waved her hand and said softly, "Maybe he didn't get enough rest. He has been busy dealing with many affairs of the snake people these days. Maybe he is tired. It's nothing serious. You don't have to worry about it."
