#974 - Ancient Emperor Cave

In the other room, Xun'er and others sat quietly waiting, and during this time, Xun'er kept staring at Gu Qinghan and Lei Jing silently. Gu Qinghan and Lei Jing's ears were full of sweat, but they were too guilty to ask. They just turned their eyes away silently, not daring to look at Xun'er.

After a long time, Xun'er looked at the two of them and spoke slowly.

"Sister Qinghan, Sister Leijing."

“Hmm!”

Gu Qinghan and Lei Jing's shoulders trembled, and their eyes slowly turned around, and then they saw Xun'er showing that chilling smile and asking them softly.

"If you don't mind, can you tell Xun'er how you and Brother Xiao Yan got together?"

Oh no! Xun Er really knew about it!

Gu Qinghan and Lei Jing had extremely conflicted expressions, while Xun'er stood up and walked in front of them, asking Gu Qinghan with an incomprehensible smile on her face.

"Sister Qinghan, the things I asked you to do at that time should not include having sex with Brother Xiao Yan, right?"

"And Sister Lei Jing, didn't you say at that time that you wanted to examine Brother Xiao Yan's character for me? May I ask what's going on now?"

Xun'er's question made Gu Qinghan and Lei Jing's expressions even more tense, but they couldn't answer a single word, and the cold sweat on their faces was getting more and more.

It would be fine if they didn't know, but they both knew clearly that Xun'er liked Xiao Yan, yet they got married to Xiao Yan without telling Xun'er. It would be strange if they didn't feel guilty.

Especially Lei Jing, who had clearly told Xun'er at the beginning that she followed Xiao Yan just to see if he was worthy of her, but she ended up getting herself into trouble.

Seeing the two admit it, Xun'er's expression was very complicated. Although she already had a guess in her mind, she still felt very uncomfortable when she actually heard it.

Of course she felt uncomfortable. Both Gu Qinghan and Lei Jing were sisters she trusted very much, but now both of them were with the men she liked without saying a word, making Xun'er feel like she was stabbed in the back.

Really, it was a good thing that Nalan Yanran helped her to think about it yesterday, otherwise Xun'er would be in a state of panic right now.

"Ah... that's right. I knew how charming Brother Xiao Yan was, but I still let you get close to him. I have a problem too."

Xun'er sighed and said this. Gu Qinghan and Lei Jing raised their heads in surprise and asked in astonishment.

"Xun'er, aren't you angry?"

"Why are you angry? I am just Brother Xiao Yan's sister now, what right do I have to be angry?" Xun'er smiled somewhat bitterly, and then returned to her seat and sat down, "Can you tell me how you and Brother Xiao Yan got together?"

Hearing Xun'er's question, Gu Qinghan and Lei Jing looked at each other. After a while, Gu Qinghan spoke slowly.

"It was the demon fire space before..."

Gu Qinghan slowly recounted what had happened in the Demon Fire Space before. Xun'er on the opposite side listened quietly, her expression becoming more and more tense. Until Gu Qinghan finished speaking, Xun'er's expression had become twisted into a ball, and her eyes were full of regret.

Because after listening to it, Xun'er realized that if Cai Lin had not pulled her at that time, she might have been able to stay in the Demon Fire Space!

Nalan Yanran, who was standing by, laughed out loud and raised her finger at Xun'er.

"See what I said? You're just unlucky, just accept it."

Nalan Yanran's laughter was another critical blow, causing Xun'er's heart to ache violently.

But Xun'er still didn't give up, and stared at Gu Qinghan and Lei Jing and asked.

"Brother Xiao Yan, does he really only treat me as his sister now?"

"......"

After these words were spoken, Gu Qinghan and Lei Jing fell silent again, and after a long time they nodded slowly.

Everyone who follows him knows how pure Xiao Yan's feelings for Xun'er are. Until now, Xiao Yan really has not had any improper thoughts about his sister Xun'er. No one can understand how Xun'er ended up like this.

Xun'er curled her lips and pointed at Nalan Yanran who was watching the fun on the side, unyieldingly.

"What about Brother Xiao Yan?"

"Hmm? Are you talking about me?" Nalan Yanran raised her eyebrows slightly, and then raised the corner of her mouth, "That's great, I also want to hear what Xiao Yan thinks of me now, tell me."

As for this question, it would have been better if Xun'er didn't ask. Once she asked, Gu Qinghan and Lei Jing's expressions became even more abstract.

This question is even more difficult to answer than the previous one.

"Xun'er..." Gu Qinghan hesitated for a long time and asked carefully: "Do you want to hear the truth or a lie?"

"...Okay, no need to say more, I know everything."

Xun'er covered her face with one hand and used the other hand to stop Gu Qinghan from continuing.

She is not a child anymore. Gu Qinghan asked her whether she wanted to hear the truth or a lie. How could she not know what it meant?

But Nalan Yanran on the side didn't care how upset Xun'er felt, and looked at Gu Qinghan with some surprise.

"Oh? So Xiao Yan has accepted my feelings? Then all these years of my life have not been in vain~" Nalan Yanran pinched her chin lightly, with a proud look on her face, "But one thing is for another, I will find a time to fight with him later, and I want him to marry me in an upright manner."

Nalan Yanran clenched her fists, looking so majestic that Xun'er glanced at her with resentment.

Really, if Xun'er hadn't understood Nalan Yanran's current personality after spending a day together yesterday, she would have suspected that Nalan Yanran was deliberately mocking her. She couldn't even get through the door now, but Nalan Yanran had made a request instead.

“Hmm!”

At this moment, Zi Yan, who had been silent, suddenly covered her head and let out a cry of pain, which attracted everyone's attention. Gu Qinghan quickly stood up and looked at Zi Yan worriedly.

"Zi Yan, what's wrong with you?"

"Speaking of which, Zi Yan felt something was wrong when she came in."

Lei Jing frowned. Zi Yan had inexplicably fallen asleep leaning on the chair since she entered the room. However, she hadn't thought much about it because of Xun'er's matter just now. Now she found it too strange that Zi Yan hadn't made a fuss for a long time.

Zi Yan's brows were tightly furrowed, beads of sweat dripped from her forehead, and her face was full of pain, which made Gu Qinghan shocked and shouted to the outside of the door.

"Xiao Yan! Something happened to Zi Yan!"

Buzz!

In just a moment, Xiao Yan suddenly appeared in the room. Seeing Zi Yan sitting on the chair with a painful look on her face, he immediately squatted down to check on him.

At this time, Zhu Huo and others also broke into the room and saw Xiao Yan squatting in front of Zi Yan. Although they all looked anxious, they suppressed themselves and did not go forward to disturb him.

(It's not the body that's wrong...it's the soul.)

Xiao Yan immediately made a judgment, separated his soul from Zi Yan, and immersed it into Zi Yan's sea of ​​soul consciousness. As soon as he entered, he felt a tremendous force. Although it had a strong aura of the Taixu ancient dragon, it did not belong to Zi Yan at all.

And along with this power, a deep voice sounded from Zi Yan's sea of ​​consciousness.

"Descendants of the ancient Taixu dragon... come and find me... under the magma... quickly..."

The mysterious voice was extremely powerful and intermittent, but one could clearly feel the urgency and joy of the owner of the voice, which made Xiao Yan frown tightly.

Could this voice be...

Xiao Yan had a guess in his mind, and used his soul to temporarily protect Zi Yan's sea of ​​consciousness. Then Zi Yan's painful expression was obviously relieved a lot. Xiao Yan's soul also withdrew from Zi Yan's sea of ​​consciousness and slowly stood up from in front of Zi Yan.

"What happened to Zi Yan?"

Seeing Xiao Yan stand up, Zhu Huo and Su Qian hurried forward and asked worriedly, and Xiao Yan answered softly.

"Don't worry, there is just another powerful force forcibly connecting to her sea of ​​consciousness, making Zi Yan feel uncomfortable."

"This... could it be?!"

Zhuhuo's eyes suddenly widened, and Xiao Yan nodded slightly.

“Well, it’s most likely the Dragon King who disappeared for thousands of years. It’s probably because Zi Yan and he have similar bloodlines that they can be connected so accurately.” Xiao Yan crossed his arms and said calmly, “It seems that the Dragon King must be in Canaan College.”

"I will immediately suspend all classes in the academy and fully cooperate with your investigation!"

Su Qian was well aware of the importance of the matter, and said with a serious look, "Xiao Yan put down his arms and spoke softly."

"No need to do that. I already know where the Dragon Emperor is." Xiao Yan turned to look at Su Qian. "Elder Su Qian, you only need to temporarily clear out the students from the Tianfen Refining Qi Tower. But just in case, let's transfer all the people from the inner courtyard to the outer courtyard."

"Heavenly Fen Refining Qi Tower?" Su Qian was stunned, and then nodded seriously, "Okay! I understand!"

Then Su Qian's figure disappeared, and he immediately went to evacuate the teachers and students in the Tianfen Refining Qi Tower and the inner courtyard. Xiao Yan bent down slightly, held Zi Yan's back with one hand, stretched his other hand over her knees, and gently picked Zi Yan up horizontally, letting her head rest on his chest, looking sideways at Zhu Huo and Zhu Li.

"Elder Zhuhuo, you and Elder Zhuli should come with me to the basement of the Tianfen Refining Qi Tower. If I heard correctly just now, the Dragon Emperor should be deep underground."

"good!"

Zhu Huo and Zhu Li both nodded excitedly in response, and then Xiao Yan looked at Gu Qinghan and the others.

"Qinghan, you guys just stay outside the Tianfen Refining Qi Tower and be ready to pick us up at any time. I've been to that underground before, and I don't know if there's anything troublesome there."

"Um!"

Gu Qinghan nodded, and then everyone went to the Tianfen Refining Qi Tower together. When they arrived, Su Qian was already standing outside the tower waiting. When he saw Xiao Yan arrive, he came over to greet him.

"Xiao Yan, all the students in the tower have been dispersed and left. They are all being led out of the inner courtyard by the inner courtyard teachers."

"Excuse me, let's go."

Xiao Yan held Zi Yan in his arms and greeted Zhu Huo and Zhu Li, who followed Xiao Yan into the Tianfen Refining Qi Tower.

After entering, Xiao Yan looked at this unfamiliar deep underground tower and couldn't help feeling helpless.

Speaking of which, Canaan Academy was originally famous for the Tianfen Refining Qi Tower, which was known as a cheating device for cultivation, but in fact, I have never really been in here. The last time I went underground, the Tianfen Refining Qi Tower was directly blown up by the Fallen Heart Flame.

Xiao Yan hugged Zi Yan tightly and jumped into the deep tower. Zhu Huo and Zhu Li followed quickly and they reached the bottom of the tower in just half a minute.

"Hmm? Is this... strange fire?"

Looking at the center of the bottom of the tower, a cluster of transparent flames was burning slowly in a device, which made Zhuhuo and Zhuli raise their eyebrows.

"That was a cluster of juvenile Fallen Heart Flames that I found by chance. It is now managed by Elder Su Qian and his men."

Xiao Yan glanced at the Fallen Heart Flame. There were no restrictions or seals around it. He probably thought that Su Qian had taken his words to heart and did not impose too many restrictions on this cluster of nascent strange fire. Although it was at the bottom of the tower, there was almost no dust around it, and it was obvious that someone came to clean it regularly.

Then Xiao Yan stepped on the ground, and then stomped his foot hard, causing the floor below to collapse directly, revealing the lava surface which was about ten meters away.

Xiao Yan hugged Zi Yan tightly, protected her with his Dou Qi, and jumped into the lava. Zhu Huo and Zhu Li were both stunned, but immediately followed.

Although it is magma, to a Douluo-level warrior, it is basically no different from ordinary flames.

In just a few minutes, they passed through the thick magma layer and came to the underground world where Xiao Yan fell. It was here that Xiao Yan saw the Yaotian Fire.

"This... there is actually this space under the magma?"

Zhu Huo and Zhu Li looked at the surrounding lava walls in surprise. If Xiao Yan hadn’t brought them down, who would have thought that there was such a cave under the magma?

At this moment, Zi Yan, who was leaning in Xiao Yan's arms, frowned again. The relaxed expression she had just shown showed pain again, causing Xiao Yan to frown.

As expected, I found the right place. It was probably because the Dragon Emperor felt Zi Yan's approach, and the soul connection became more rough.

Although he didn't know why the other party was so anxious, his behavior undoubtedly made Zi Yan feel painful, which directly lowered Xiao Yan's impression of the Dragon Emperor.

Then Xiao Yan turned his gaze to the deepest part, and without any delay, he stepped into the void and moved forward into the depths. Zhu Huo and Zhu Li also hurriedly followed.

Along the way, the group also encountered many lizardmen that Xiao Yan had encountered here before. If these lizardmen were still a threat to Xiao Yan in the past, now there was no need for him to even look at them. Zhuhuo only slightly released a little bit of the Taixu Ancient Dragon's pressure, and these lizardmen dared not to move forward.

Xiao Yan also discovered that the deeper they went, the fewer lizardmen there were, as if they were afraid of some creature in the depths and did not dare to get closer.

After walking for a few more minutes, Xiao Yan and his companions reached the end. They looked in astonishment at the towering stone gate standing in front of them. On the stone gate were four large characters engraved in golden light.

Ancient Emperor’s Cave!

Before Xiao Yan and the others could come to their senses, an excited voice suddenly rang out from inside the door.

"The person outside the door, is he a member of the Taixu Ancient Dragon Clan?"
