The Battle Through Heaven

The Battle Through Heaven
The Vice Commander of the Submerged Black Army, Ling Quan


The days of Xiao Yan had once again become as calm as before after waking up. Although he would attract a number of surprises and different types of gazes whenever he revealed himself in the Inner Academy, it became natural for him after getting used to it. After a long time, Xiao Yan was able to reach the point of completely ignoring them.


Although the Great Competition is over, the issue regarding entry to ‘The Sky Refining Blazing’ Tower is being pushed back, perhaps to provide enough time for the competitors to recuperate. This caused Xiao Yan, who was filled with anticipation, to begin to find it difficult to pass the time.


Xiao Yan did not enter the ‘ Sky Refining’ Refining Tower to train during this period of time because he had just increased his strength by two stars. Instead, he chose to quietly refine the Dou Qi within his body which suddenly surged. This sudden increase in a large amount in Dou Qi could cause people's hearts to be filled with excitement but that sudden surge did not have the same firmness of Dou Qi that one received when stepping take one step at a time. Superficially advancing is a taboo in progress. Therefore, for the sake of the future, Xiao Yan had to make sure that his/her body maintained a completely full condition at all times, and not such a shallow empty force.


The Junior Sect Leader of the Blood Sect whom he had killed in ‘Black-Corner’ area was the best example of this. Even though he had advanced to the Dou Ling class at such a young age, his strength was much weaker than an ordinary Dou Ling in an actual fight. Moreover, due to his shallow strength and unstable Dou Qi, the fighting strength he displayed was naturally limited.


The originally shallow Dou Qi within Xiao Yan's body gradually became great during his daily relaxing and calm training. With ‘Green Lotus Core Flame’, excellent assistant in Dou Qi refinement, the, the time and effort that Xiao Yan needed to spend in refining Dou Qi was clearly reduced and easier compared to ordinary people.


For some unknown reason Xun Er liked to pull Xiao Yan away to enter the deep mountains together during this time which once again became relaxed. After that, they would lie on the lush green grass and cuddle together while the warm sunlight shone on them. Those days enrich and bless. However, Xiao Yan felt a repeated premonition that/that something would happen when they took the time to enjoy their enriching experience in this quiet mountain forest … They are on a slightly sloping grass surface. The lush green grass was like a green carpet that extended to the end of one's gaze. There was a vast mountain canyon in the meadow not far below. The gap is very deep. With a faint cloud left there, the place looked like heaven.


Xiao Yan and Xun Er were lying in the meadow. A faint sunlight covered their bodies, giving them a warm drowsy feeling.


Xun Er tilted her head slightly. Those jewel-like eyes watched the calm and contented face of the green-robed young man beside him who closed his eyes. His small mouth was slowly raised into a bow. A moment later, he seemed to remember something, and his eyes became slightly gloomy. He spoke in a deep voice, ” Xiao Yan ge-ge, You should definitely really practice the scroll that Xun Er has given you after you reach the Dou Wang class in the future. ’


Xiao Yan opened his eyes when he heard a soft soft voice beside his ears. He smiled and rubbed Xun Er's head as he spoke, ” That's only natural. How could I not make all my efforts to practice something that Xun Er gave me? ’


Xun Er smiled and laughed sweetly after hearing this. His laughter was like a mountain colliding with a rock, crisp and pleasant.


” However, son, why have you looked a little strange over the past few days? ” Xiao Yan suddenly spoke as he looked directly at Xun Er's moving face.


Xun Er was a little surprised. His gaze flickered as he avoided Xiao Yan's gaze. He spoke in a soft voice, ’’No. I feel no different from the past. ’


’’Is that so?’ ‘Xiao Yan smiled. He was just about to say something when Yao Lao's serious voice suddenly sounded in his heart, ’’ There is a large group of aura flying towards you. This aura is extremely powerful, and their target seems to be the two of you. ’


Xiao Yan was startled when he heard Yao Lao's words. His expression immediately changed. Without even thinking about why such a large group of extremely powerful foreign auras had appeared within the Inner Academy, Xiao Yan stood up and pulled Xun Er, preparing to leave this place.


The latter seemed to have a slight sense of something when Xiao Yan pulled him. Her pretty face immediately changed as she hurriedly pushed Xiao Yan into the forest. His mouth anxiously spoke, ” Xiao Yan ge-ge, quickly go and hide. Don't come out of anything! ’’


”What is it? Are those people chasing you? ” Xiao Yan grabbed Xun Er's delicate hand and spoke with a sinking expression.


Xun Er's gaze swept across the distant northern horizon. He sensed the rushing aura rushing over, and his delicate hand hurriedly pressed down on Xiao Yan's body. He spat out forcefully and a gentle wind pushed Xiao Yan into the forest. At the same time, he instructed, ” Xiao Yan ge-ge, hold your aura and do not let them find you. ’


Xiao Yan's expression continued to change after being pushed by Xun Er into the forest. He did not understand why Xun Er suddenly became anxious.


” Who are these people? ” Xiao Yan's fist slowly tightened as his gaze followed Xun Er, and turned to the northern horizon. An unusual anger quietly increased in his heart.


A large group of rushing wind sounds emerged from the sky not long after Xiao Yan was pushed into the forest. Finally, more than ten very small black dots appeared in the northern horizon. The route of these black dots was very clear. They immediately rushed to where Xun Er was.


As the sound of the sharp rushing wind became more intense, the speed of the black dot became even faster. Finally, they appear within visible limits.


Xiao Yan had never seen or heard of this foreign Magical Beast. However, this did not prevent him from feeling astonished in his heart. This was because he sensed the extremely powerful aura of this Magical Beast. Clearly, these Magical Beasts were not just ordinary Magic Beasts, but a kind of flying fighting beast.


Wild beasts were rare within and among themselves. The ferocious beasts used in battle were even rarer. Only the very large factions had the capital to breed and tame them.


Xiao Yan's gaze shifted away from these four-winged horned beasts before finally stopping on their enormous backs. Xiao Yan was once again shocked. He saw that/that there was a human figure standing on the back of each of the four-winged horned beasts.


These people wore purple-black robes on their bodies and displayed expressionless faces. As their gazes slightly shifted, they looked like sharp blades that caused one to feel a chill over one's body. Xiao Yan was somewhat surprised to realize that/it was the aura of all ten human figures this was just like a deep lake where one could not see the bottom of it. This kind of situation was something that Xiao Yan could only sense from the Elders within the Inner Academy.


The ten big four-winged horned beasts flapped their wings before finally stopping at the mountain gorge. Many gazes swept towards the green-clothed young lady standing on the grass.


’Ke Ke, Xun Er xiao - jie. I've finally found you. ” The leading four-winged horned animal is slowly descending. On it was a man who spoke with laughter to Xun Er.


This man is not considered very old. From his appearance, he looked to be around twenty-four to twenty-five years old. His appearance was very handsome and relaxed and could be compared to Lin Xiuya. The purple-black robe on his body caused him to have an additional stable aura compared to Lin Xiuya. Most importantly, this man seemed to be the leader of this group. This was because the position of the other nine people stood clearly behind him. Such small and insignificant details are best at uncovering status differences.


’I am the new deputy commander of the Submerged Black Army, Ling Quan. I have been ordered by the clan leader to return the xiao-jie! ” The person who called himself Ling Quan stood on top of the four-winged horned beast as he cupped his hands to Xun Er, and spoke respectfully to Xun Er.


’’ I have said that/that I will return alone. Why do you all have to hurry from such a long distance? ”The sudden arrival of Ling Quan and the others caused Xun Er's expression to cool down. Therefore, his words also contained calmness as he spoke.


’’ The clan head has given such instructions we can only obey him. ’’Ling Quan smiled slightly. He was just about to say something when his eyes suddenly hardened. His gaze instantly flung towards the forest as he spoke in a deep voice, ” Who eavesdropped? ‘


Ling Quan's words had just sounded when the expressions of the nine human figures quietly standing on the back of the four-winged horned beast instantly turned cold. In an instant, the bodies of nine human figures flashed into the forest. Low and deep collision sound waves immediately appeared.


’’ Stop! ’’ Xun Er's beautiful face changed as she shouted loudly.


As Xun Er's loud voice rang out a human figure suddenly shot out from the forest. Finally, he flapped his wings and stopped in midair before finally slowly landing beside Xun Er. He was Xiao Yan whose clothes were somewhat disorganized.


” Xiao ... Are you okay? ” Xun Er's pretty face was extremely anxious when she saw Xiao Yan's somewhat breathless breathing. The habitual form of his address was just about to shout when he became cautious. Immediately, he forced himself to calm down as he asked.


Xiao Yan frowned slightly due to this change of Xun Er. He asked, ’’ What happened? ’’


After Xiao Yan exited the forest, the nine human figures also looked like a single body as they came out together. Finally, it landed behind Ling Quan. Their gazes were like sharp blades locked firmly onto Xiao Yan.


You ... ” The change in expression on Xun Er's face did not go unnoticed by Ling Quan. The latter's eyes narrowed slightly as he immediately turned to look at Xiao Yan who had appeared. He was a little surprised when he saw that face. His finger gently tapped on his forehead as he suddenly spoke with a half smile, ” If my guess is correct, this should be Young Master Xiao Yan who used to be the trash of the Xiao clan? I've seen your picture. ’


’’ Who are you? ” Xiao Yan's face was as deep as water as he asked in a deep voice.


’’ Vice-commander of the Submerged Black Army. However, there is no point in telling you this. You, or maybe I should say the Xiao clan, do not have the qualifications to come into contact with such a level. ” Ling Quan smiled as he replied. His voice contained a very stark insult. He had long heard the news of the Xiao clan being nearly annihilated. The current Xiao Clan had completely declined. In what way did they have the greatness they had back then?


Xiao Yan's expression gradually turned dark, cold after hearing the humiliation that Ling Quan's words had towards the Xiao clan. His hand also slowly grabbed onto the Heavy Xuan Ruler. If you find any errors (broken links, non-standard content, etc.), please let us know so that we can fix them as soon as possible.
