Chapter 228: Rescue at a Checkpoint
Canaan College is located in the Black Horn Region, thousands of miles away from the Gama with the help of flying magical beasts, Xiao Yun still needed two months.
But for him now, this distance is nothing to worry about. With the strength of a Dou Zun, he opened up a space channel and arrived in less than two days.
Revisiting the old place, looking at the familiar environment and unfamiliar students below, Xiao Yun felt deeply moved.
For him, this is the beginning of a dream.
Here, Elder Huo taught him the art of alchemy, and his own strength also began to improve by leaps and bounds at that time.
He had lived in Canaan College even longer than in the Xiao family.
On the other hand, Zi Yan, who has also lived here for a long time, has different feelings.
"Haha! I'm back here again! I'll go see Old Man Su later!
They always didn’t let me eat medicinal herbs before! Now I’m going to eat one and throw one away in front of them, to piss them off to death!”
"If you do this, you might be beaten to death by me before you make them angry to death." Xiao Yun listened to the childish remarks of the little brat and rubbed her head helplessly.
As an alchemist, I naturally cannot stand such a waste of medicinal materials.
"Xiao Yun, is this where you used to live? Where are we going now?"
Medusa beside her also looked curious. Although she had heard of Canaan College a long time ago, this was her first time here.
It’s a bit hard to imagine that such a place could actually produce a monster like Xiao Yun.
"Yes, Zi Yan and I grew up here since we were young."
Xiao Yun nodded and continued, "Next, let's go find my teacher first. When we last parted, he was still absorbing the strange fire. I haven't seen him for three years."
After saying this, he closed his eyes slightly, and the soul power at his brows surged out, searching the entire Canaan Academy on the carpet.
With the soul power of the heavenly realm, he soon found the trace of Elder Fire, and also got an unexpected gain.
"Hmm? Is it such a coincidence today..." Xiao Yun murmured in a low voice.
Although the voice was not loud, the little kid in his arms still heard it clearly and asked curiously.
"Xiao Yun, what are you talking about? Have you found your teacher and the location of old man Su?"
“Found it, but my teacher is refining medicine, and Elder Su is under the Burning Heaven Refining Qi Tower.
Let’s not disturb them for now, something interesting happened somewhere else in the academy…”
Hearing the interesting things, Zi Yan's eyes lit up, and she immediately grabbed his hand and said, "What are we waiting for? Let's go directly!"
Medusa also nodded slightly. This was her first time at Canaan College, so naturally she had to follow Xiao Yun and the others.
"Then let's go!"
As soon as he finished speaking, Xiao Yun tore through the space and rushed towards the place he had explored.
……
In the deep mountains of the inner courtyard, lush green grass covered the ground, and at the end of the grass, there was a stream flowing.
However, this peaceful and beautiful scene was destroyed by a terrifying aura.
Visible waves spread outward in circles, and wherever they passed, the trees were broken in half.
The source of the aura was a young man who looked to be about twenty-four or twenty-five. He was quite handsome and dressed in a purple-black robe.
The most attractive thing is the four-winged unicorn under his feet. The horn is covered with strange patterns and there are faint sounds of wind and thunder. Its momentum is comparable to that of a sixth-level monster!
Obviously, this is a flying beast used in combat. Its value far exceeds that of ordinary flying magical beasts. Only the first-rate forces in Zhongzhou have the money to raise and tame it.
However, there were actually nine such flying monsters behind the man, and there was also a figure standing on each four-winged unicorn.
Opposite the man stood two younger men and women, both talented and beautiful, a perfect match.
"Miss Xun'er, I finally found you."
The man's gaze fell on the two men, his eyes were extremely fiery, but when he glanced at the young man, a rage ignited deep inside him, which he kept hidden deep inside.
"Miss, I'm Lingquan, the new deputy commander of the Black Annihilation Army. I'm here on the orders of the elders to take you back to your clan." Lingquan stood on the unicorn and clasped his fists respectfully towards Xun'er.
"I said I would go back by myself, why did you have to travel thousands of miles to come here?" Looking at Lingquan in front of her, Xun'er's face was cold, and even her words were chilling.
"Miss, this is the order of the elders. We are just following orders. Please don't make things difficult for us."
Lingquan smiled slightly, his attitude still extremely respectful, but everyone with a discerning eye present understood that he wanted the other party to make a decision right away.
Xun'er's face became even colder when she heard that. Before she could say anything, Xiao Yan beside her spoke first.
"I say, you guys, don't you understand what Xun'er said? She said she would go back by herself when the time comes, don't use those bullshit elders to pressure her!
If the elder really wants Xun'er to go back now, then let him come by himself!"
The words were a bit arrogant, but they were also in line with Xiao Yan's current state.
After all, in this time and space, he did not have his Dou Qi absorbed by Yao Lao for three years and was not labeled as a waste of the Xiao family. Instead, he kept moving forward courageously, and with the many resources of the Xiao family and Canaan College, his already outstanding talent became even more dazzling.
Among his peers, except Xiao Yun, no one else can surpass him in cultivation.
Although the group of people in front of him looked difficult to deal with, Xiao Yan was not afraid.
“Hehe…” Hearing Xiao Yan’s words, Ling Quan’s smile faded, his eyes narrowed slightly, looking at the young man below, and said in a deep voice: “Dare to insult the elders, Black Annihilation Army!”
As soon as the words fell, the nine figures that were originally standing quietly on the back of the four-winged unicorn like sculptures suddenly opened their eyes, and a murderous aura rushed towards them.
The next moment, nine figures moved and flashed in front of Xiao Yan at the same time, and in an instant, they took the latter down.
"Stop!" Just when they were about to kill Xiao Yan, Xun'er finally reacted and shouted sternly.
"Swish!" The palm knife cut through the air, and when Xun'er shouted, it fell and stopped about ten centimeters above Xiao Yan's neck.
"Get out of my way!"
Xun'er looked at the captured young man, her face becoming colder and colder. She waved her hand and swept everyone away with her powerful fighting spirit.
Immediately, she quickly stepped forward and helped Xiao Yan up. Seeing that the latter was breathing rapidly, Xun'er asked anxiously, "Xiao...are you okay?"
"I'm fine..." Xiao Yan shook his head, his eyes still looking fiercely at Ling Quan above.
"Xiao Yan, this is your name, right? I am the deputy commander of the Black Annihilation Army, Ling Quan!"
Lingquan stood on the unicorn, looked at Xiao Yan with cold eyes, and said in a deep voice: "You are just a small third young master of the Xiao family, and you dare to insult the elders!
This time, I am giving you a warning for Miss Xun'er's sake! If you speak rudely next time, it won't be so easy! "
"Don't let your mouth bring trouble to the family!"
The Xiao family today is no longer the behemoth it once was. If he wants, he can lead his team to completely destroy it!
Hearing the disdain in the other party's words, Xiao Yan's already extremely cold face became even colder, and faintly, one could see a ray of purple fire burning in his eyes.
"Lingquan, shut up! The Xiao family and my clan have an alliance, how dare you insult them?" Xun'er became anxious when she noticed Xiao Yan's increasingly cold expression and shouted angrily.
“Miss, don’t be angry, I’m just reminding him.” Lingquan smiled pretentiously upon hearing this, and continued, “But the elder did instruct me to come here this time.
If you, Miss, do not obtain the Xiao family key, I will lead the team to the Jia Ma Empire and conduct a thorough search!"
"you dare!"
After hearing Ling Quan's words, Xiao Yan could no longer bear it. He waved his hand and purple flames burst out, turning into a giant palm and slamming towards the one in front.
"Hmph, Xiao Yan, it seems like you didn't remember a single word I told you just now..."
Seeing the giant flaming palm coming, Lingquan's surface was extremely cold, but deep in his eyes, there was a hint of surprise and murderous intent.
He had seen Xun'er's attitude towards Xiao Yan just now. If he hadn't taken the former into consideration, he would have probably been unable to resist killing Xiao Yan on the spot.
Therefore, he could only mock and ridicule Xiao Yan with words. According to the situation just now, the latter had an extremely arrogant temper.
Under such verbal provocation, Xiao Yan would definitely not be able to help but attack again.
In this way, he could take this opportunity to kill him directly, and neither Xun'er nor the elders of the clan would have anything to say afterwards.
This is the opportunity!
Now that Xiao Yan took the initiative, it was exactly what he wanted!
For a moment, Lingquan was filled with murderous intent, and a ball of extremely powerful fighting spirit condensed in his palm.
He wanted to strike with one blow! He wanted to annihilate the ant in front of him from the world!
"Brother Xiao Yan, don't!" Looking at the two people quickly closing the distance, Xun'er's face changed, and she wanted to stop them but it was too late.
At this moment, Xiao Yan's expression also changed. Feeling the opponent's terrifying attack, he knew that he could not resist it, but he did not regret it.
Just as the two fighting skills were about to collide, suddenly, a strange ripple emerged in the void.
"Buzz!"
The next moment, the ball of fighting spirit in Lingquan's palm dissipated, and even he was fixed in mid-air, unable to move.
"Oh!"
The giant flaming palm hit him directly, causing a strong energy wave to burst out, knocking him to the ground fiercely, creating a big hole.
"Huh? This is..." Xiao Yan looked puzzled. He didn't understand why the other party suddenly stopped moving.
However, he didn't understand why the others' faces changed drastically.
The Black Annihilation Army soldiers who had been waiting quietly on the side suddenly appeared and came to Xun'er in an instant, surrounding her with vigilant looks on their faces.
"This is... a Dou Zun strongman!"
A trickle of blood flowed from the corner of Lingquan's mouth. He slowly stood up from the pit and said loudly to the void: "Senior, we are from the ancient clan!"
“The people of the ancient clan are truly majestic…” In the void, a young man in green clothes slowly emerged.
