Battle Through the Heavens: I Am the Righteous Path

"I see."

In the lobby, after listening to Xiao Yan's story, Gu Yuan nodded in understanding and looked at Xiao Yan in front of him.

"In other words, you used the Soul Clan secret method in your mind to refine the soul of the Heavenly Tomb, and then transferred it to Sister Xiao Xuan, repairing her residual soul to the point where it could leave the Heavenly Tomb?"

“Yes.” Xiao Yan nodded and frowned slightly. “The soul power of the Sky Tomb Soul is indeed extraordinary, but the soul power of our ancestor was too severely damaged. According to my estimation, our ancestor’s soul may have recovered less than 30%.”

The Soul of the Heavenly Tomb is a collection of the wronged souls of many powerful men over the past thousand years. This alone is enough to imagine how powerful its soul power is. However, even though it was all absorbed by Xiao Xuan after refining, not even 30% of it was restored. This shows how terrifying Xiao Xuan's soul was in his prime.

"These guys from the Soul Clan did a good thing."

Gu Yuan smiled. Xiao Yan also told him about Hundiao's matter, which made him sigh.

It was the Soul Clan who harmed Xiao Xuan into this state in the first place, and now Xiao Xuan is able to leave the Heavenly Tomb also because of the Soul Clan. Life is really unpredictable.

"So Sister Xiao Xuan will stay in your soul from now on?"

Gu Yuan asked again, but Xiao Yan just shook his head slightly.

“Because I have some knowledge of the way of soul, I can protect the ancestor temporarily, but the quality of the ancestor’s soul is too terrifying, I probably can’t protect him for long.” Xiao Yan said, his expression slightly troubled, “It feels like the ancestor’s soul is not made in the same structure as ours, and we can’t deal with it with ordinary soul methods.”

"That's true."

Gu Yuan nodded in agreement, thinking back to the time when Xiao Xuan was a half-step Dou Di. From a species perspective, he had indeed departed from the realm of humans. It was natural that his soul would become special.

"Therefore, the most urgent task is to transfer the soul of the ancestor to a new body as soon as possible. As long as we help the ancestor adapt to the new body, I will slowly help her adjust her soul."

Xiao Yan said this, Gu Yuan was silent for a while, then spoke in a deep voice.

"A new body, right? I understand." After saying that, Gu Yuan passed Xiao Yan and prepared to leave, "I will go to the Soul Clan and get you a Dou Sheng now!"

Gu Yuan had been conservative before, but this time Xiao Xuan finally had a chance to be resurrected, and Gu Yuan would definitely not let go of this opportunity to make up for his regrets!
“Calm down, Clan Leader Gu Yuan!” Xiao Yan was sweating profusely when he heard Gu Yuan’s words. He quickly stood in front of Gu Yuan to stop him. “I’ve calculated that with the strength of my ancestor’s soul, she must be at least a five-star Dou Sheng to be able to contain her body. Otherwise, it will be like my ancestor in my soul, and she won’t be able to stay for too long.”

"Yeah. I understand."

Gu Yuan looked as if he understood. Xiao Yan breathed a sigh of relief and was about to speak his mind when Gu Yuan took another step and walked out.

"Then I'll go get you a Soul Clan Dou Sheng who's above five stars!"

No?

Seeing Gu Yuan's resolute attitude, Xiao Yan was completely stunned. Your character didn't seem so cruel before? !

And you said you were going to catch him, where were you going to catch him? Were you going to the Soul Clan's territory to catch him?
"Calm down!" Xiao Yan stopped Gu Yuan again and explained to him, "In fact, I already have a solution. I told you these things just to get your help."

After hearing what Xiao Yan said, Gu Yuan stopped, turned around and looked at Xiao Yan, motioning him to continue. Xiao Yan did not dare to delay and spoke concisely.

"Using fire as the body, this is the solution I came up with."

“Using fire as a body?” Gu Yuan was stunned for a moment, and immediately thought of the strange fire that Xiao Yan possessed, and immediately refused, “No! Strange fire is extremely poisonous to the soul, not to mention that Xiao Xuan’s soul has only recovered less than 30%, letting her contact with strange fire is tantamount to seeking death!”

Facing Gu Yuan's rejection, Xiao Yan looked serious and stared at Gu Yuan closely.

“Please believe me, Clan Leader Gu Yuan. I will never joke about the souls of my ancestors.” Xiao Yan stretched out a hand and said in a serious voice, “In fact, I have a senior in Zhongzhou who has achieved the goal of using fire as his body, and has been the same as an ordinary person for so many years. The so-called strange fire is just a more advanced flame born from heaven and earth. From another perspective, the only thing that can bear the souls of our ancestors is the strange fire.”

After hearing this, Gu Yuan's expression became uncertain, and he asked after a while.

"Are you sure it's possible?"

"It's much more feasible than Patriarch Gu Yuan going alone into the Soul Clan."

Gu Yuan was silent for a while and then nodded.

"Okay, it's up to you."

"Then please ask Patriarch Gu Yuan to send someone to invite that senior here immediately. With your and her help, the success rate of this matter should be greatly increased."

Xiao Yan asked this, but Gu Yuan simply waved his hand and refused.

"No! It's too slow to send someone to invite her!" Gu Yuan stared at Xiao Yan, his eyes revealing determination, "I'll take you there directly! Sister Xiao Xuan's soul is not stable yet, we must not waste time."

After saying this, without waiting for Xiao Yan's consent, Gu Yuan directly put his arm around Xiao Yan's shoulder, and in a flash, he took him away and disappeared into the Gu Clan.

Zhongzhou, Xingyun Pavilion.

Yao Chen and Feng Xian sat on the top of the mountain, playing chess as usual, while Cai Lin and the others had a sudden urge some time ago and took the children to travel to Zhongzhou.

But what was surprising was that Han Feng, who had never been interested in these things, actually accepted the invitation and went along.

"Ah~~~ It's so boring~" Yao Chen tossed the chess piece in his hand, his handsome face showing boredom, "Cai Lin and the others took the children out to play, and Xiao Yanzi is still in the Ancient Clan. It's been almost four months and he hasn't come back yet."

Yao Chen was not worried about Xiao Yan's safety. Although Yao Chen did not have a good impression of the Eight Clans, she was very clear that these Eight Clans cared a lot about their reputation and would not casually and inexplicably attack Xiao Yan, who was already quite prestigious. In addition, with the existence of Xun'er, there was no need to worry about Xiao Yan's safety.

"Hmm?" Feng Xian raised her eyebrows and tilted them slightly, "Skyfire is coming in."

"Long time no see~ Did you miss me?"

As soon as Feng Xian finished speaking, Yao Tianhuo's hearty laughter reached their ears. Then they saw Yao Tianhuo, who seemed like the incarnation of fire, appear not far away, staggering towards them with a jar of wine in his hand.

Yao Chen saw her and smiled, and asked.

"Why are you here?"

"My disciple has gone back to Burning Flame Valley to visit his relatives. The Tianhe League has nothing to do during this period. I was bored so I came to have a drink with you."

Yao Tianhuo casually placed the wine jar on the chessboard, disrupting the game between the two. Feng Xian raised her eyebrows in displeasure, and then relaxed.

Whatever, it’s a losing game anyway, so it might as well disrupt it, so I don’t have to listen to Yao Chen’s ridicule.

"Ah~ I haven't been back for a long time. I miss it so much." Yao Tianhuo looked around the familiar scenery, then was stunned for a moment and asked, "Where are the others?" "They took the children out to play."

Yao Chen replied with a chuckle, and as he spoke he took out three wine bowls from his storage ring, and poured each of them a full cup of wine with the wine that Yao Tianhuo had brought.

"We are bored, so let's have a good drink today."

Yao Tianhuo also sat down and raised his wine bowl to clink glasses with the two of them. A hint of joy was revealed in Feng Xian's cold eyes.

You can't tell from her appearance, but Feng Xian actually loves drinking, even more than Yao Chen. She just has been shouldering the responsibilities of Xingyun Pavilion so she has to restrain her desires. She has become accustomed to restraining herself over the years, but she is still quite happy that Yao Tianhuo can take the initiative to ask her out for a drink.

Feng Xian drank the wine in the bowl and then wiped her moist lips happily. But then she found that Yao Chen and Yao Tianhuo in front of her did not drink the wine and were staring at her blankly with their bowls in hand.

Feng Xian frowned and was about to ask when she suddenly felt an invisible pressure from behind, and she reacted at the same time.

They are not looking at themselves, but at what is behind them.

Feng Xian suddenly turned her head and saw a dignified-looking man standing behind her, causing her pupils to shrink suddenly.

Who is this man? I didn't even notice he was standing behind me!

But soon, Feng Xian's nervous heart relaxed a little, because she saw that the man standing next to her was Xiao Yan, whom she hadn't seen for nearly four months.

He seems to have changed a lot?

Feng Xian stared at Xiao Yan's blue eyes in astonishment. She was a cold-natured girl, but when she saw Xiao Yan's drastically changed temperament, she unconsciously felt a different kind of closeness in her heart, which made Feng Xian very confused.

It's only been four months since I last saw him, how could Xiao Yan have changed so much? I almost didn't recognize him, his appearance was clearly the same as before.

But then, Xiao Yan's face changed, and he couldn't help but bend over and retch, covering his mouth. After he finally calmed down, he stood up and took a deep breath, looking at Gu Yuan beside him with some shock in his heart.

It only took a blink of an eye to get from the Ancient Realm to the Xingyun Pavilion. Just now, when Xiao Yan saw Yao Chen and the other two, they didn’t even realize they had already arrived at the Xingyun Pavilion. Is the late Nine-Star Douluo so terrifying?

"Little Yanzi"

Yao Chen then came to his senses, put down the wine bowl and slowly stood up.

The appearance of Gu Yuan and Xiao Yan really caught her and Yao Tianhuo off guard. They appeared behind Feng Xian in the blink of an eye, and she didn't even notice their presence.

And this is definitely not Xiao Yan's ability.

"Senior Yao, Senior Feng Xian, Senior Tian Huo, long time no see."

Xiao Yan recovered and frowned after sensing the Xingyun Pavilion.

Aren’t Cai Lin and the others here?
However, now was not the time to ask, so Xiao Yan, with a serious face, introduced Gu Yuan's identity to the three of them.

"This is Xun'er's father, Gu Yuan, the patriarch of the Ancient Clan."

! ! ! ! !

This introduction made the three of them jump up from their seats, looking at Gu Yuan in horror, who looked no different from an ordinary person on the street.

Gu Yuan, the patriarch of the ancient clan, is recognized as the strongest person in the world!
Gu Yuan naturally also saw the fear of the three people, raised his hand and said slowly.

"Don't be alarmed. I have no ill intentions here."

Then Gu Yuan looked at Yao Tianhuo and frowned slightly. He naturally saw at a glance the essence of Yao Tianhuo that his body was fire. He was also amazed in his heart that Yao Tianhuo was so skilled in using fire as his body.

Gu Yuan even suspected that he was wrong. Yao Tianhuo, whose body was made of fire, was so complete that he was no different from a person with a body.

"It seems that you really didn't lie. If that's the case, then your previous suggestion is indeed worth a try."

Gu Yuan looked at Xiao Yan and said this. Xiao Yan nodded and looked towards Yao Tianhuo.

"Senior Tianhuo, Xiao Yan wants to ask you for something. Please help me."

Yao Tianhuo gradually came back to his senses, then he breathed a sigh of relief, with his usual bright smile on his face.

"Okay, what do you want me to do for you?"

"That's it"

Xiao Yan was just about to explain Xiao Xuan's affairs to Yao Tianhuo, but Gu Yuan suddenly reached out to stop him. He glanced at Feng Xian and Yao Chen who were also present, meaning to let them leave first.

The matter of Xiao Xuan’s resurrection is too serious, and the fewer people who know about it, the better.

After Xiao Yan understood Gu Yuan's gesture, he frowned unhappily, but Yao Chen and Feng Xian were very perceptive, and Yao Chen spoke directly.

"Xiao Yanzi, you two can talk about whatever you want first. Let's go out for a while with Feng Xian."

After saying that, Yao Chen called Feng Xian to prepare to leave. Gu Yuan had already hinted so, if they still stayed here, to put it nicely, they would be ungrateful, and to put it bluntly, they would be courting their own death.

With Gu Yuan's strength, he wouldn't even need to move his hands to kill them.

"I'm sorry, Senior Yao, I will explain it to you when the time is right."

Xiao Yan saluted to Yao Chen with a guilty look on his face. Subjectively, Xiao Yan did not want to hide anything from his mentor, but objectively speaking, Gu Yuan's concerns were not unreasonable. The news of Xiao Xuan's resurrection would be a bombshell to anyone. In order to avoid the news leaking, try not to reveal it to others, even if Xiao Yan trusts Yao Chen and Feng Xian.

In response, Yao Chen just waved her hand indifferently. She certainly knew the character of her disciple. Things that even Xiao Yan had to hide from her must not be spread out.

After Yao Chen and Feng Xian left, Gu Yuan waved his hand to isolate the space around the three people. Yao Tianhuo looked at Gu Yuan's action in shock.

Opening up a new space with ease is no longer something that can be described as terrifying.

At this moment, Yao Tianhuo was suddenly startled and looked at Xiao Yan in amazement, and found that his azure pupils had turned dark blue, and his friendly temperament also changed suddenly. The corners of his mouth raised slightly, and he waved to Yao Tianhuo with a chic smile.

"Hey~ Junior, I'll trouble you from now on~" (End of this chapter)
