Chaos God's Nest

"Nonsense? What nonsense am I talking about?" Xu Yao clearly didn't believe it. "Do you know what this holy sword means to Lou Guang? It's his lifeline! He would never lose it! Brother Yuan, tell the truth, did you kill him too?"

Seeing that Xu Yao kept pressing him with questions, Yan Xiaohuang finally couldn't take it anymore and slowly nodded, saying, "Alright! As you said, he was indeed killed by me!"

"hiss!"

Upon hearing this, Xu Yao immediately gasped, and an expression of disbelief appeared in his eyes.

ruthless!

That's absolutely ruthless!

The Chaotic Emperor's Son and the Fighting Emperor's Son! Two peerless geniuses from the Upper Realm! Both were considered by the world to have the potential to achieve unparalleled status! Yet, they were both killed one after another by the man before them! Who would believe such an earth-shattering secret if it were told?

"Brother Yuan, you..."

"Shh!"

Seeing that Xu Yao was about to speak, Yan Xiaohuang quickly made a silencing gesture and then said, "You know it, that's enough. Don't mention it again! Be careful that others don't find out! I don't want to be hunted down by several immortal forces as soon as I arrive in the Upper Realm!"

Upon hearing this, Xu Yao finally realized what was happening, and then slowly nodded without mentioning the matter again.

However, despite keeping quiet, the look of horror on his face did not fade in the slightest. Instead, he looked Yan Xiaohuang up and down with his eyes.

Seeing this, Yan Xiaohuang asked, "Why are you staring at me like that?"

Upon hearing this, Xu Yao chuckled and said, "I hadn't noticed it before! Brother Yuan is indeed handsome and a man of great talent!"

Upon hearing this, Yan Xiaohuang's expression immediately changed drastically. He felt a chill run down his spine and quickly took two steps back. He looked at Xu Yao with extremely frightened eyes and said, "Damn it! You wouldn't happen to be that kind of person, would you?"

Xu Yao naturally understood the meaning behind Yan Xiaohuang's words. Upon hearing this, he quickly waved his hand and replied, "Hey, hey, hey! What are you saying, Brother Yuan? You've misunderstood! I'm not that kind of person! I'm only interested in women!"

Upon hearing this, Yan Xiaohuang finally lowered his guard, let out a long breath, and patted his chest, replying, "Damn! Do you know how scared you were? If you had taken another step forward, I would have run away with my backside covered!"

"hey-hey!"

Xu Yao smiled upon hearing this, and then said, "No, no! I just learned about your deeds, Brother Yuan, and was simply amazed!"

"No, no, no! Your astonishing appearance truly frightens me!"

Upon hearing Yan Xiaohuang's words, Xu Yao felt a bit embarrassed and quickly coughed twice to change the subject, saying, "Well, Brother Yuan! You really don't need to go to such lengths! Gifts are fine as long as the thought is there! I'm not a petty person!"

"No way, we're buddies! I have to get you a treasure!" Yan Xiaohuang said, leaving no room for refusal.

As he spoke, he fiddled with his hands for a while, and after a long time, he finally took out a treasure from his storage bag: a soft armor that radiated golden divine light.

"Here, this is for you!" With that, Yan Xiaohuang handed the soft armor in his hand to Xu Yao.

Xu Yao did not refuse this time and immediately reached out to take it. As soon as he held the soft armor in his hand, he subconsciously examined it, and then his eyes couldn't help but show a look of shock again.

"Hiss! This... this is actually a soft armor made from the scales shed by the ancient dragon clan! My god! Brother Yuan, where did you get this? This is too awesome!"

"Who cares where he got it from? Just tell me if this stuff works or not!" Yan Xiaohuang rolled his eyes and replied.

"Perfect! Absolutely perfect!" Xu Yao replied, stroking the soft armor in his hand with obvious delight.

Upon hearing this, Yan Xiaohuang smiled smugly and said, "That's right! I have plenty of treasures like this!"

"Huh? Is it true or not?"

"Hmph! Do you think I'm the kind of person who likes to brag?" Yan Xiaohuang snorted in response.

At the same moment, he couldn't help but think to himself, "Do I really have to tell you that I've been to the True Dragon Ruins?"

That said, this dragon armor was obtained by Yan Xiaohuang from the True Dragon Ruins, and he has many more treasures like it!

This doesn't even include the considerable amount he had previously distributed to Gu Qinghan and the others; otherwise, the storage space would probably be completely full.

At the same time, after carefully putting away the dragon armor that Yan Xiaohuang had given him, Xu Yao spoke again, saying, "Getting back to the point, this time it's all thanks to you, Brother Yuan! If it weren't for you, without this Immortal Key fragment, I'm afraid I would have had to wait until the next Immortal Path opens!"

Upon hearing this, Yan Xiaohuang waved his hand and replied with a smile, "Brother Xuyao, you're too kind! I suppose what you need is a fragment of the Immortal Key, while what I need is a Dao Scripture. It's just a matter of each of us getting what we need!"

Upon hearing Yan Xiaohuang's answer, Xu Yao gave a wry smile, then shook his head and sighed, "Ah! Let me tell you the truth, Brother Yuan! The fragment of the Immortal Key that you just gave me is actually worth far more to me than you can imagine!"

"Oh? What do you mean?" Yan Xiaohuang asked in surprise.

"Hehe, to be honest, Brother Yuan, although I am the Imperial Son of the Taixu Sect, I have no real power within the sect! Since my father passed away, the real power of the Taixu Sect has always been in the hands of my second uncle, the Taixu Immortal Emperor!"

"The Immortal Emperor of Taixu? That name sounds familiar. Isn't he the ancestor of Taixu Academy?" Yan Xiaohuang said after thinking for a moment.

“Yes!” Xu Yao nodded in response, then a cold smile appeared on his face. “That old bastard! Taking advantage of the time when my father disappeared, he seized all the political power of the sect! For hundreds of thousands of years, he has held power! If my father hadn’t passed on the method of controlling the imperial artifact to me before he left, he probably would have already taken action against me!”

Upon hearing this, Yan Xiaohuang's eyes widened in disbelief as he asked, "He would attack you? Aren't you his nephew? Would he really attack you?"
