Falling Star Pavilion.
Xiao Yan was ultimately sent back by Hun Ya and Hun Li. The two people from the Hall of Souls each held one of Xiao Yan's legs and lifted him up with his head facing downwards.
It was as though they were holding a little chick.
At this moment, the injured and dying Xiao Yan was not much different from a 'little chick'.
Both of them did not even have the strength to truss a chicken and were at the mercy of others.
The two people from the Hall of Souls were wrapped in black robes. Strange black Dou Qi spread over their bodies. Only a pair of scarlet eyes that contained a red glow were revealed under their black hats.
… …
In the sky above the Falling Star Pavilion.
"Tsk tsk tsk …"
One of the people from the Hall of Souls looked at the Falling Star Pavilion below, which was covered by a formation, and said, "Shall we throw this fellow down from here?"
"No."
The other person from the Hall of Souls shook his head after his words sounded, "What if he dies after being thrown down from here?"
These two people from the Hall of Souls were protectors of the Hall of Souls. They were known as the left and right protectors. They were only at the Dou Zong class.
This person who had spoken was the left protector.
"Die?"
The right protector said, "No way!
This fellow is also an expert. It is impossible for him to be so weak, no? "
The left protector said, "So what if he is an elite Dou Sheng?
You see, isn't your fate just as miserable when you oppose my Hall of Souls? "
The right protector said, "That's right. Both of them are elite Dou Shengs, yet they are being held like little chick by us two Dou Zongs. It is likely that no one would believe it if news of this were to spread, no?"
"The two of us brothers will be great people in the Hall of Souls in the future. Holding a Dou Sheng like a little chick is something that only the two of us brothers have done since ancient times."
The left protector said, "Not bad, you are right."
"Tsk tsk tsk …"
… …
The laughter was sinister and strange as it reverberated over the entire place.
These two people from the Hall of Souls were acting so sneakily. Naturally, they were unable to hide from the senses of the experts from the Falling Star Pavilion.
The current Falling Star Pavilion was different from the past. There were many experts within the pavilion and it was the leader of the four pavilions.
It was enough to contend with the Soul Palace and not lose to the Pill Tower at all. It was a giant first-rate faction in the Central Continent.
Yao Chen placed his hands behind his back. He looked at the two experts from the Hall of Souls through the formation and muttered, "Two mere Dou Zongs from the Hall of Souls actually dare to come and provoke my Falling Star Pavilion?
Isn't Soul Palace a bit too presumptuous? "
With that said.
Whoosh!
Yao Chen's figure flashed and appeared outside the array, facing the two Hall of Souls experts.
Yao Chen looked at the two Hall of Souls Protectors and said in a deep voice, "There is a path to heaven, but you refuse to take it. Instead, you barge into hell. Since the two of you wish to die today, I will fulfill your wish."
At this moment, the Left Protector grabbed Xiao Yan's neck and said, "Wait a moment. Look at who is in my hand."
"Hmm?"
Yao Chen frowned when he heard this. He looked at Xiao Yan, who was covered in blood and whose face was swollen like a pig's head.
"Who is he?"
Yao Chen was really unable to recognize Xiao Yan in this manner.
Let's talk about it.
Yao Chen had never thought that it was Xiao Yan. Xiao Yan had gone to the Gu clan to attend the coming of age ceremony.
How was it possible for him to end up in such a manner and end up in the hands of two mere Hall of Souls Dou Zongs?
He did not believe it.
"Who?"
The Left Protector asked, "Don't tell me that Yao zun-zhe is unable to recognize his own disciple?"
"That's right."
"Yao zun-zhe, this is your beloved disciple, Xiao Yan!" The Right Protector echoed at this moment.
Clearly.
These two Hall of Souls Protectors might be elite Dou Zongs, but they recognized Yao zun-zhe, Yao Chen.
Who did not recognize the top alchemist in the continent?
Moreover.
The two of them were enemies to begin with. There was no need to be concerned about anyone else. However, one still needed to be concerned about enemies.
Yao Chen frowned when he heard the words of these two Hall of Souls Protectors. His eyes narrowed as he said, "Xiao Yan?"
This pig-headed fellow was his disciple, Xiao Yan?
Why was Yao Chen so unwilling to believe it?
His Spiritual Strength sensed Xiao Yan. There was no need to mention it. He exclaimed, "Xiao Yan …"
Yao Chen was extremely shocked.
He did not expect Xiao Yan to end up in such a state. Xiao Yan was on his last breath. Hadn't he gone to the Gu clan?
How did he end up in such a state?
At this moment.
There were a countless number of question marks in Yao Chen's mind. However, Yao Chen understood that now was not the time to think about these questions.
What he needed to do now was to rescue Xiao Yan from the hands of these two Hall of Souls Protectors.
Yao Chen believed that even a Dou Zong would be able to easily finish off Xiao Yan with how weak he was.
"Tsk tsk tsk …"
The Left Protector, who was grabbing Xiao Yan's neck, involuntarily laughed out loud when he saw the shocked Yao Chen. He knew that Yao Chen had confirmed Xiao Yan's identity.
Don't say it.
Yao Chen's shocked manner was quite interesting.
It was true when one thought about it.
An elite Dou Sheng falling into the hands of two Dou Zongs and having his life and death controlled by the Dou Zongs was something that would cause one to be shocked.
Yao Chen awoke when he heard this strange laughter that caused one to feel extremely displeased. He said, "Speak!
What will it take for you to choose to release Xiao Yan? "
The Left Protector said, "Yao zun-zhe is indeed straightforward. You are indeed worthy of being a person who loves his disciple.
The two of us brothers will not ask for much and will not go overboard. "
"One tier 8 medicinal pill for each of us and we will release Xiao Yan."
"Alright."
Yao Chen did not hesitate as he hurriedly agreed.
Although two tier 8 medicinal pills were precious, they were far from comparable to Xiao Yan. Xiao Yan was priceless.
His value far exceeded two mere eighth-grade pills.
The Right Protector extended his hand at this moment and said, "Yao zun-zhe, hand it over!"
Xiu!
Xiu!
… …
Yao Chen did not hesitate. He rubbed his Storage Ring and two medicinal bottles were handed to the Right Protector.
The Right Protector received the two medicinal bottles, but he did not choose to check the medicinal pills immediately. Instead, he looked at Yao Chen in a warning manner and said, "Yao zun-zhe, you should not play any tricks with us. Once you do, your precious disciple will be gone."
Yao Chen said, "Two tier 8 medicinal pills. You can check them yourselves!"
Play tricks?
He disdained to do so.
They were merely two Dou Zongs. Even if they obtained a true tier 8 medicinal pill, they would not be able to leave. There were already a couple of elite Dou Zuns hidden in this place.
As long as he rescued Yao Chen, these two mere Hall of Souls protectors could forget about leaving today.
The Right Protector said, "We will believe you for now."
He opened his mouth as he spoke.
He opened the pill bottle to check its contents. Suddenly, a rich pill fragrance enveloped the entire world.
The strength of the world became a little restless.
Don't say it.
This tier 8 medicinal pill fragrance was already this frightening after only an instant. It was indeed worthy of being a tier 8 medicinal pill.
"Gulp …"
The Right Protector swallowed his saliva and hurriedly closed the medicinal bottle. The medicinal pill within this medicinal bottle was undoubtedly a tier 8 medicinal pill.
Even if it was not a tier 8 medicinal pill, it was at least one of the top tier 7 medicinal pills.
As a Hall of Souls protector, he had never seen such a medicinal pill.
This pill fragrance was sufficient to indicate that it was extraordinary.
The Right Protector kept the medicinal bottle into his Storage Ring. After which, he opened the other medicinal bottle.
