Seeing that the [God's Lobby] couldn't locate the coordinates of a dungeon world in a short time, Xiao Feng had no intention of waiting around foolishly. Instead, he shifted his focus to the remaining simulation rewards.
After staring at the rewards for a while, Xiao Feng finally retrieved the [Infinite Ammo Desert Eagle] and the [Alien Queen Egg].
Although the [Desert Eagle] was weak in terms of firepower, its ability to automatically replenish bullets held immense research value.
As for the [Alien Queen Egg], it went without saying—having an Alien Queen meant commanding an entire army of aliens.
Even though Xiao Feng no longer cared much for ordinary aliens, their ability to evolve continuously by absorbing host genes granted them tremendous growth potential, making them still worth cultivating.
...
Several days later.
Jia Ma Empire, Yunlan Sect.
The massive square was shrouded in mist, paved entirely with uniform giant stones, exuding an ancient and majestic aura.
At the center of the square stood a towering stone monument, engraved with the names of past sect leaders and those who had rendered great service to Yunlan Sect.
At this moment, over a thousand figures sat cross-legged on the square, all dressed in identical moon-white robes with sleeves embroidered with clouds and swords, fluttering in the wind as if alive.
At the highest point of the square, several elevated stone seats were arranged, with each ascending tier representing higher status.
On the highest platform stood three stone seats. The white-haired elder seated in the middle was none other than Yun Shan, the former sect leader of Yunlan Sect!
On the two seats beside Yun Shan sat Jia Xing Tian and Fa Ma, both of whom had also broken through to the Dou Ancestor level.
Originally, Yun Shan hadn't planned to attend the three-year agreement duel between Nalan Yanran and Xiao Feng.
However, upon discovering that Jia Xing Tian and Fa Ma had both advanced to Dou Ancestor, he had no choice but to personally receive them.
On the platform just below Yun Shan's, five stone seats were arranged, occupied by seven figures—three men and four women.
The three men were: Hai Bo Dong, Gu He, and Xiao Zhan.
Hai Bo Dong and Gu He needed no introduction—they were both veteran Dou Emperor experts of the Jia Ma Empire.
What truly surprised everyone was Xiao Zhan, the current head of the Xiao Clan, who had recently broken through to Dou Emperor.
The reason Xiao Zhan had advanced so quickly was because Xiao Feng had fed him a Life Devouring Pill and then injected him with a portion of Demon King's blood.
It wasn't that Xiao Feng was unwilling to give Xiao Zhan more Demon King's blood, but after his cultivation reached the Dou King level, his body could only withstand so much.
As for why Xiao Feng didn't give Xiao Zhan Dou Saint marrow—it would have been a waste!
After all, Xiao Zhan was Xiao Feng's father. Once Xiao Feng and Xiao Yan broke through to the Dou God level, Xiao Zhan would at least reach the Nine-Star Dou Saint stage.
On the stone seat between Hai Bo Dong and Xiao Zhan sat a stunningly beautiful woman in a black-and-gold cheongsam—the current head of the Miter Clan, Ya Fei!
Judging by the aura emanating from her, it was clear that Ya Fei had already broken through to the Dou Emperor level.
Of course, her true cultivation far surpassed Dou Emperor. After all, Xiao Feng had shared a portion of the Dou Saint marrow with her.
Although Ya Fei hadn't fully refined all the Dou Saint marrow, her cultivation had long since surpassed even he Dou Ancestor level, reaching Dou Venerate.
However, following Xiao Feng's advice, she deliberately concealed her true strength as a hidden trump card.
On Ya Fei's slender, shapely legs sat an adorable little girl in a pink princess dress, giggling as Xiao Zhan made funny faces at her.
The little cutie, who had inherited Ya Fei's beauty, was Xiao Feng's second daughter—Xiao Ya!
Ever since Xiao Zhan led the Xiao Clan back to the Jia Ma Sacred City, he often carried Xiao Ya around for outings, so the grandfather-granddaughter duo had grown very close.
Sitting beside Gu He, Yun Yun watched the heartwarming interaction between Xiao Zhan and Xiao Ya, a hint of envy flashing in her beautiful eyes as she subconsciously stroked Xiao Yun's head.
Since Xiao Feng didn't want to reveal his true relationship with Yun Yun before the three-year agreement, he had deliberately kept Xiao Yun's existence a secret—even Xiao Zhan didn't know he had an eldest granddaughter.
"Soon, Xiao Yun. Just hold on a little longer. The three-year agreement is about to end, and you'll soon be able to return to your family."
Yun Yun gently caressed Xiao Yun's hair while gazing at Nalan Yanran on the square, sighing inwardly.
Looking at the doll-like Xiao Yun and the maternal radiance emanating from Yun Yun, Gu He couldn't help but feel a pang of bitterness.
The reason Gu He had agreed to become Yunlan Sect's guest elder was his secret affection for Yun Yun.
Unfortunately, before he could confess his feelings, Yun Yun had been snatched away by that damned "Feng Xiao."
The most infuriating part? Yun Yun had met Feng Xiao because Gu He told her that the pill to help Nalan Yanran break through required Purple Spirit Crystal shed by the Amethyst Winged Lion.
In a way, Gu He had personally delivered the woman he loved into Feng Xiao's arms.
If he had known things would turn out this way, Gu He would've abandoned the pill he was refining and accompanied Yun Yun to the Magical Beast Mountain Range himself—then he would've been the one to win her heart.
Every time he thought about it, Gu He wanted to slap himself. "All you ever do is refine pills—no wonder you're single for life!"
"Boom! Boom! Boom!"
Just as Gu He was wallowing in regret, a series of thunderous roars echoed from the distant horizon, growing louder and closer.
"Hmm?"
Yun Shan frowned, instinctively turning toward the source of the noise, his pupils contracting sharply. "Such a young Dou Ancestor expert."
Dressed in a black martial outfit, Xiao Feng strode through the air with his hands behind his back. With each step, lightning crackled around him, causing the very void to tremble.
As Xiao Feng's figure flickered closer to Yunlan Sect, Nalan Yanran finally recognized him.
"Impossible!"
Seeing Xiao Feng walking on air like a Dou Ancestor expert, Nalan Yanran's eyes filled with disbelief, her lips trembling uncontrollably. "H-how could he be a Dou Ancestor?!"
Hidden in the shadows, Protector Wu also sensed the overwhelming aura radiating from Xiao Feng and couldn't help but exclaim, "An eighteen-year-old Seven-Star Dou Ancestor? To think the declining Xiao Clan could still produce such a genius. No wonder even a mediocrity like Xiao Zhan could break through to Dou Emperor."
Little did Protector Wu know that Xiao Feng's true cultivation had already reached the Two-Star Dou Saint late stage. He had deliberately suppressed his aura to Seven-Star Dou Ancestor to mislead the Soul Clan's spies.
