The Ancient Sovereign

Han Yan was calm and composed, as though he did not put the blade images in his eyes, when the blade images arrived in front of him, he took a wrong step and instantly dodged to the side. The blade shadows streaked past him, not touching his body at all. In the next moment, Han Yan appeared ten meters away, and said coldly: "Is this how you receive guests?"    

Xiao Yao Cheng scoffed coldly, his gaze unblinkingly looked at Han Yan, and asked seriously: "Who are you?" That strike just now was one of his most powerful spells. However, he had not expected that after his spiritual sense had locked onto his opponent, he would actually be able to let his opponent escape successfully. He was not a fool. With a single glance, he could tell that his opponent's cultivation was far above his own, or else he wouldn't have been able to dodge his spiritual sense's lock.    

Han Yan's eyes flashed, and said: "Who I am is not important, you only need to know that I am here for the Xiao Yao family?"    

"Help our family?" Xiao Yao Cheng acted as if he heard the best words in the world, he laughed and said, "Does our family need your help? Even if you do, you don't have to do it this way. I am ordering you to release her now. If you don't, you can forget about leaving this place alive today. "    

Han Yan did not pay attention to his words, but said: "Bring out the Xiao Yao Family Patriarch, I want to see him."    

Xiao Yao Cheng laughed coldly and said: "You want to see our clan leader? If you want to, then defeat me first." With that, he let out a low roar and quickly circulated the Spiritual Energy within his body. He then looked at the long saber in his hand, which was trembling slightly. The sunlight shined on it, emitting a dazzling cold light.    

Han Yan's brows twitched, and without waiting for the other party to make a move, he waved his long sleeve.    

From within his sleeve, a gust of wind whistled out, its speed was extremely fast, and in the blink of an eye it arrived before Xiao Yao Cheng.    

With such speed, Xiao Yao Cheng didn't even have time to react before he was struck by the violent winds. Then, like a kite with its string cut, he flew towards the city wall not far away. If he really hit the city wall, even if he didn't die, he would at least be seriously injured. However, Han Yan did not have the intention to kill him. The moment Xiao Yao Cheng's body was about to be installed on the city wall, the fierce wind dissipated and he landed on the ground.    

In that instant, Xiao Yao Cheng could clearly feel the taste of death. He knew that his opponent had shown mercy, otherwise there was no way he could have survived. When Xiao Yao Cheng thought of this, he knew that he was no match for him. He suppressed the emotions in his heart, and asked while cupping his fists: "Senior, who exactly are you, and why have you come to our family?"    

Han Yan said the same words as before, "You don't need to know who I am, just call your Clan Chief over."    

Xiao Yao Cheng's eyes were filled with hesitation. He immediately said, "I can take you to see the patriarch, but first let her go." As he spoke, he pointed to the unfettered drunkenness in Han Yan's embrace.    

Without thinking, Han Yan released a ray of Spirit Qi towards unfettered drunkenness. Then, unfettered drunkenness's body flashed and he woke up from his slumber. When she woke up, she saw Xiao Yao Cheng holding onto his long blade, staring angrily at Han Yan, she immediately left his embrace and asked: "Xiao Yao Cheng, what are you doing?"    

Hearing the question, Xiao Yao Cheng became extremely angry and said angrily: "You actually asked me what I was doing? Ridiculous, truly laughable. I also wanted to ask you, what relationship do you have with this man? After being carried by him for such a long time, don't you know? " His mood was extremely unstable, and it could be seen that he really liked unfettered drunkenness.    

unfettered drunkenness's face sank. He was too lazy to explain the relationship between him and Han Yan and sneered: "What relationship do I have with him? Do I need to tell you?"    

Xiao Yao Cheng was stunned, and then he laughed loudly, "Unexpectedly, really never would have thought that you were such a woman."    

The unfettered drunkenness did not pay attention to his words. He slapped the storage bag on his waist and took out the jade pendant: "Now, take me to see the patriarch. I have something important to tell him."    

"Important things?" It was obvious that Xiao Yao Cheng's thoughts were in the wrong as he sneered, "What important matter? In my opinion, it should be about your marriage!"    

"So what?" unfettered drunkenness suddenly grabbed Han Yan's arm and said coldly, "My problem has nothing to do with you."    

Upon hearing these words, Xiao Yao Cheng's expression became sinister. He gritted his teeth and said word by word: "Good, very good. I'll bring you guys there right now." With that, she stared at Han Yan and turned, heading back into the city.    

unfettered drunkenness looked at Han Yan and said, "Senior, let's go!"    

Xiao Yao City was very big, there were astonishing many Shop inside, just like a trading market. In the cultivation world, almost everything could be bought here, even the most precious spirit liquid could be bought here. Of course, there is a prerequisite, that you must have enough Spirit Stone.    

Very quickly, they arrived at a huge palace. Outside the palace stood countless guards, all of them Infant-Changing Stage cultivators. They stood there solemnly, their bodies emitting a faint killing intent. After entering the palace, what appeared in front of them was a huge plaza. Xiao Yao Cheng stopped and said in an indifferent tone: "You guys wait here, I'll go inform the chief."    

Looking at Xiao Yao Cheng's departing back, the corner of Han Yan's mouth curled into a strange smile.    

It was at this time that unfettered drunkenness raised his head to look at Han Yan. When he saw Han Yan's smile, he asked in confusion: "Senior, what's wrong with you?"    

Han Yan's wrist moved, forming a soundproofing array, and said: "You have also seen the array formation outside the city, its defensive power is extremely strong, and even if a Nine Revolving Expert were to come, they would not be able to break through it. Three days later, the six great Clans will join forces to attack. From the look of it, they are confident that they can exterminate the entire Footloose Clan.    

The moment these words came out, the unfettered drunkenness was slightly stunned. "How is this possible? Every member of the Xiao Yao family is extremely sincere to their family. How could they possibly do such a thing?"    

Han Yan took a deep breath and said slowly, "There is nothing that is impossible in this world. For the sake of benefits, you can sell anything."    

The unfettered drunkenness did not refute him. She knew that Han Yan was right, so she asked: "Did you see who it was?"    

Han Yan did not reply her, but said, "You'll find out soon enough."    

After a while, two people walked out of the main hall in front of the plaza. The one in front was Xiao Yao Cheng, and the one in front was an old man wearing a black daoist robe. From the aura he was emitting, it could be seen that he had already reached the great circle of perfection. If he was able to comprehend a Dao-heart, he might be able to break through. But upon closer inspection, there was a trace of a deathly aura emanating from his body. It was obvious that he didn't have much longevity left.    

The old man's identity was obvious, he was the Xiao Yao Family's current Patriarch, and also the clan's only Nine Revolutions powerhouse, Xiao Yaoguang.    

Although Xiao Yaoguang was old, he was still a Taoist. His footsteps were not slow, and in a few steps, he arrived in front of the two of them. His gaze swept across unfettered drunkenness's body, and then landed on Han Yan's body, and cupped his fists: "Senior, why have you come to Xiao Yao Family?"    

Xiao Yaoguang could immediately tell that Han Yan was not a cultivator from Carefree Star. All the cultivators that were able to come to this planet were at least at the Spirit Severing Stage. Similarly, Xiao Yaoguang was certain that the other party did not directly barge in, but had come together with the unfettered drunkenness. It could be seen that he did not have any hostility towards the Xiao Yao Family.    

Han Yan's brows twitched, and he said in a low voice: "This is not a good place to talk, I want to be light with you alone."    

Xiao Yaoguang hesitated for a moment, then said: "Senior, please come in …" With that, he gestured for Han Yan to enter the hall.    

The two of them walked into the hall, Xiao Yaoguang cupped his fists and said: "Senior, please sit …"    

Han Yan waved his hand and did not sit down. Instead, he said, "Since you are the patriarch of Xiao Yao Family, then I am speaking the truth. I have come for Xiao Yao Zi's last wish …"    

Hearing that, Xiao Yaoguang was startled, he suddenly thought of something, and asked: "Senior, is father really dead?"    

Han Yan nodded and said: "His ashes are right here." As he said that, he patted the storage bag on his waist and took out the bone ash jar.    

Xiao Yaoguang held the urn with both hands and his eyes became moist. If one looked carefully, they could see the starlight flashing through them. Then, with a plop, he kneeled on the ground and said gratefully, "Many thanks, senior."    

Han Yan sighed, as he did not want to continue on this topic. He changed the topic and said, "You should know the current situation of the Xiao Yao Family, right?"    

As the Patriarch, how could Xiao Yaoguang not know about the matters of the clan? He had a similar idea of the situation on the continent. Hearing Han Yan's question, Xiao Yaoguang sighed, and slowly said: "I am really too useless. In my generation, not only is the huge Xiao Yao Family not strong, it is even gradually nearing destruction. Actually, I also know in my heart that Ancestor Wuji wants to kill us. Even if Senior helped us for a while, in the future … "    

Han Yan's eyes flashed, and he said: "Ancestor Wuji is dead."    

Hearing this, Xiao Yaoguang was startled, and said in disbelief: "Ancestor Wuji is dead, how is this possible?"    

Han Yan didn't explain in detail, but said: "He has already been killed, you don't have to worry about that. Right now, I just want to know, how much do you know about the clan's traitor? "    

Senior, you are such a great man. You even know that there is a traitor within the clan." He paused for a moment and said, "That's right, there are indeed many traitors in the clan. As for how many there are, I am not sure." "If we don't get rid of these people, sooner or later, they will all become a disaster …" He sighed. Apparently, he didn't think of a way to get rid of them.    

Han Yan was silent for a while, then said: "If you want to get rid of them, it's very simple, it's to make them voluntarily reveal their fox tails."    

Xiao Yaoguang nodded his head, and sighed: "Senior, you are right, but how do we let them see their true colours?"    

The corner of Han Yan's mouth revealed a profound smile, and said: "I have a method, I wonder if Patriarch will listen or not?"    

Xiao Yaoguang's eyes flashed with joy, and he immediately said: "Senior, please speak your mind, I am listening."    

Han Yan smiled slightly, then said: "Tomorrow morning, call everyone in the clan to the plaza, and then announce this matter..." He then explained in detail what he was thinking and how he would arrange it when the time came. After he finished speaking, Han Yan asked: "Patriarch, what do you think?"    

Xiao Yaoguang's eyes were filled with disbelief, and asked: "Senior, is this really possible?"    

"Of course." Han Yan nodded with certainty, and gave Xiao Yaoguang a look that he did not need to worry about, and said: "With me here, are you afraid that they will turn the tables?"    

Hearing that, Xiao Yaoguang suddenly had confidence, and said solemnly: "Alright, I will do as senior says."    

The night passed in silence. The next morning, the bell within the city rang five times. This meant that all the cultivators within the clan had to gather at the plaza. All of a sudden, except for the disciples guarding the city, all of the cultivators flew towards the plaza. In a short moment, the huge square was filled with people.    

Xiao Yaoguang walked out of the hall and arrived at the very front of the plaza before saying, "Today, I have called everyone here to announce something." After saying that, he made a gesture of silence and continued, "For the Xiao Yao Family, this is a joyous occasion. Tomorrow, unfettered drunkenness and Han Yan will have a great wedding, do any of you have any objections … "
