Douluo: Starting from the Spirit of Time Worm - Chapter 538
After listening to Xiao Yan’s description, Yao Chen fell into thought. He recalled the scene where Xun’er suddenly appeared three days ago, and said solemnly:
“This may be the means of a strong man who has reached a certain level.
“Dou Zong can use space in a preliminary and superficial way. Dou Zun can tear space, create space locks, and use the power of space to lock and strangle opponents. When you reach the Dou Sheng stage, you can create space…
“Three days ago, Xun’er also suddenly appeared in front of you… When she appeared, I didn’t feel the fluctuation of Dou Qi, soul fluctuations, or even space fluctuations…
“Although I didn’t feel the fluctuation of space, I am more inclined to believe that this ability is a higher-level use of the power of space.
“And the level is terrifying… Even in my lifetime, I have never come into contact with such an ability, and I have never even heard of it.”
A flash of horror flashed in Xiao Yan’s eyes. Even Yao Chen had never heard of such a strong man in his lifetime… Dou Sheng?
When Xiao Yan thought that there might be such a strong man watching him, he felt a tingling sensation on his scalp…
When Xiao Ding and Xiao Li brought the news of the destruction of the Xiao family, he had discussed with Xiao Meng and Xun’er about the Xiao clan, the ancient clan, and the soul clan. Xiao Yan knew that Xun’er was from the ancient clan and that her father’s name was Gu Yuan, but he didn’t know what Gu Yuan and Xun’er’s status were in the ancient clan.
At this moment, he had a vague understanding of Xun’er’s status and smiled bitterly in his heart:
In order to take Xun’er back, the ancient clan would actually send out a Dou Sheng strongman! It really deserves to be the legendary ancient race, but Xun’er’s identity is too complicated, right? Dou Sheng strongmen, even among the Dou Emperor’s descendants, are probably the top forces and will not be too common.
Yao Chen had some vague guesses about the visitor in his heart, and this guess made him tremble in his heart…The one who came to take Xun’er back might be her father, Gu Yuan…the patriarch of the ancient clan!
“You guessed right. This is indeed a more advanced use of spatial ability. Even among Dou Sheng, there are not many people who can use this trick.” A voice suddenly interrupted the conversation between Xiao Yan and Yao Chen.
Yao Chen’s pupils shrank, and he was shocked… The conversation between him and Xiao Yan using soul power was actually monitored by someone. What’s more terrifying is that he didn’t notice it at all before the other party spoke!
Xiao Yan suddenly turned around and saw that a middle-aged man with simple clothes and ordinary appearance had stood beside him.
He had a smile on his face that made people feel like spring breeze: “Hello, my name is Gu Yuan, and I am Xun’er’s father.”
Xiao Yan was startled and quickly bowed: “Hello, uncle.”
Gu Yuan’s eyes stayed on his ring, and he smiled and said: “A good teacher, but unfortunately a little weak.”
Yao Chen’s slightly illusory soul body floated out of the “Bone Flame Ring” and saluted Gu Yuan: “Junior greets senior.”
“Ah? Uh… teacher?” Xiao Yan looked surprised.
Yao Chen was an old man with white hair, while Gu Yuan was a middle-aged man who looked about the same age as his father Xiao Zhan, or even younger. Therefore, he was a little surprised to see Yao Chen come out and treat Gu Yuan as a junior.
But soon, he was relieved. Xun’er’s father was a Dou Sheng! Maybe he just looked young, and his actual age was much older than that.
“Little guy from the Yao clan… I also heard of your name in the ancient world. Yao Chen, the ‘Medicine Venerable’, was able to make such a name for himself without relying on the power of the Yao clan, which is also quite capable.” Gu Yuan praised lightly.
Being praised by Gu Yuan, a powerful person whose status is even higher than that of the chief of the Yao Clan, Yao Chen couldn’t help but feel a little happy. He said modestly:
“It’s just a little bit of fame, not worth mentioning. It’s my honor to be heard by the senior.”
Xiao Yan glanced at the baboon with a puzzled look on his face, opened his mouth and asked:
“Uncle…that baboon is…”
Gu Yuan showed a mischievous smile in his eyes: “Why, do you really think that baboon is my daughter?”
“Uh…no, I want to ask where Xun’er went, what happened just now?” Xiao Yan said awkwardly.
Gu Yuan responded: “I only have Xun’er as a descendant, she is my most precious treasure, of course I have to watch her…the move just now is called ‘space transfer’, I moved her away.”
As he said, he waved his hand, and the curly-haired baboon disappeared and returned to its tribe.
He paused for a moment and then said, “Xun’er’s bloodline is not yet complete. Her bloodline may be the most perfect bloodline of our clan in the past thousand years.
“Only after becoming a Dou Sheng and the bloodline power is completely stable can you lose your virginity.
“As his father, I can’t tolerate her ruining her future because of her love for her children.”
Xiao Yan’s face sank: “Uncle, are you here to persuade me to leave Xun’er?”
Gu Yuan nodded: “I do have such an idea…”
Xiao Yan clenched his fists, his face showed reluctance, clenched his teeth, looked at Gu Yuan stubbornly, opened his mouth, but couldn’t say anything because of his inner excitement.
Yao Chen’s illusory soul body put his hand on Xiao Yan’s shoulder, slightly exerted force, and signaled him not to be impulsive.
He knew how terrible this middle-aged man who looked ordinary in front of him was!
Seeing the master and disciple, Gu Yuan smiled softly: “I have such an idea, but Xun’er doesn’t agree… I am not a conservative person. I don’t oppose free love, but I won’t do such a thing as breaking up a couple.”
“Ah?” Xiao Yan’s eyes were filled with surprise. This turn of events made his heart, which had sunk to the bottom of the valley, rise again.
Gu Yuan smiled and said, “As long as Xun’er likes it, I won’t hate it… Didn’t you understand what I meant just now?
“You can’t lose your virginity before Xun’er’s bloodline stabilizes… When her bloodline stabilizes and it won’t affect her future, then I won’t be able to control it…”
Xiao Yan showed a look of joy: “I know… Before fighting… uh, fighting the Saint, I will be restrained with Xun’er. ”
Having said this, he felt a heavy pressure in his heart. Xun’er could only get rid of the Dou Sheng, so the man couldn’t be worse off… The implicit condition was that only if he got the Dou Sheng could he be qualified to marry Xun’er!
He couldn’t help but take a breath of cold air and felt a bit of toothache.
Fighting Saint…what a long distance!
However, if the goal is far away, it is far away. As long as Uncle Gu Yuan does not object, no matter how far the distance is, he has to climb over it for Xun’er!
Seeing Gu Yuan smiling and amiable like this, he couldn’t help but joke:
“Uncle, you really misled me just now. You almost made me think that I had to do what Xun’er said before I could marry her.”
Gu Yuan had a smile in his eyes: “Oh, what did that girl Xun’er say?”
“薰儿说,想娶她的最好的方法,是揍你一顿……这样族里就不会有人说闲话了。”
Gu Yuan looked strange and narrowed his eyes: “Oh…she really said that? “
He suddenly burst into laughter:
“Hahahaha… This is indeed a good idea, then it’s settled, you come and beat me up!
“In front of the whole clan, beat me up so that no one will object to your marriage.
“Actually, I haven’t finished what I said just now… In addition to waiting for Xun’er’s bloodline to stabilize, I also want to let you resolve the affairs of your Xiao clan by yourself before I can allow you to continue to interact with Xun’er…
“However, since you have proposed such a solution, the Xiao clan’s matter is secondary…
“If you can defeat me, let alone marry Xun’er to you, it’s okay to give the entire ancient clan as a dowry… Hahaha…”
Gu Yuan didn’t want Xiao Yan to have more contact with Xun’er. He didn’t want the Xiao clan behind him to use their relationship to drag the ancient clan into the battle with the Soul clan and harm the interests of the ancient clan.
But if Xiao Yan can defeat him, then what does it have to do with starting a war with the Soul Clan?
Taking the ancient tribe as a dowry… Xiao Yan was stunned for a moment, suddenly thought of a possibility, and couldn’t help but twitch the corner of his mouth…
Yao Chen’s faint voice came from behind, confirming his guess:
“Gu Yuan is the patriarch of the ancient tribe. “
Xiao Yan opened his mouth but couldn’t say anything. The leader of the Ancient Clan? The leader of the most powerful Ancient Clan among the descendants of the Dou Emperor?
Then his strength should be extremely terrifying… Even among the Dou Sheng, he should be the strongest.
Thinking of this, Xiao Yan couldn’t help but want to slap himself twice, because of his momentary frivolity, he accidentally raised the difficulty by who knows how many percentage points!
He suddenly thought of Gu Yuan’s mention of the Xiao Clan, and asked with a somewhat excited tone:
“Uncle, you just said ‘Xiao Clan’, is it referring to the extermination of the Xiao family? What do you know?”
“This… I’m not talking about this matter, but another Xiao Clan, the real Xiao Clan.” Gu Yuan’s face sank slightly.
Xiao Yan showed doubt on his face: “The real Xiao Clan? Could it be that my Xiao family is not the Xiao Clan?”
“No, your Xiao family is indeed the Xiao Clan, but it is only one of them, just the Xiao Clan that is on the surface. Behind you, there should be a hidden, more powerful Xiao Clan. “Gu Yuan said seriously.
“Hmm?” Xiao Yan was even more confused… What? There is a more powerful Xiao clan behind the Xiao family? How come I don’t know? Is this a secret that only the clan leader and the elders of the clan can know?
But that’s not right… After the Jialie family hired Liu Xi, the half-baked first-grade alchemist, the Xiao family was in a comprehensive disadvantage. At that time, my father and the three elders were at a loss!
If there is really a Xiao clan behind the Xiao family that even a strong man like Uncle Gu Yuan needs to mention, how can they be helpless against a first-grade alchemist?
Gu Yuan looked at the blank expression on Xiao Yan’s face and sighed: “You really don’t know… This Xiao clan is really hidden deep enough.”
Xiao Yan asked: “Uncle, this is indeed the first time I heard someone mention this. Do you know anything?”
Gu Yuan shook his head: “I know very little about this mysterious Xiao clan. I just found some clues recently. “
