Chapter 346 Actions from all parties
"What?" Qi Shan asked puzzledly.

In fact, Qi Shan already had a guess in his mind. It must be Xiao Yan who brought huge losses to the Soul Palace, otherwise the Soul Palace would not have put so much effort into dealing with Xiao Yan.

Qi Shan sighed and slowly said, "The Soul Palace sent three guardians to ambush the Izumo Empire in the west, one of whom was a ground-level guardian, but they still failed, and the three guardians are nowhere to be found."

"Ah! As far as I know, the Soul Palace's guardians are no weaker than Dou Zong, and the Earth-level guardians are even stronger than Seven-Star Dou Zong. And yet they failed?" Qi Shan said in horror.

“More than that! It is said that Soul Palace joined forces with the Ten Thousand Scorpion Sect of the Izumo Empire and strong men from the other two empires, adding up to six Dou Zong masters.” Mo Tianxing also admired Xiao Yan in his heart, because even for him, facing such a lineup, the only outcome would be death.

“Six Dou Zongs!” Qi Shan was frightened by this lineup, because six Dou Zongs could easily defeat the Black Horn Region. After being shocked, Qi Shan looked at Mo Tianxing and asked, “Since Xiong Ba is so powerful, then we…”

"Haha, you know the strength of the Soul Palace. If they really get serious, what can Xiongba do to them!" Mo Tianxing said with a faint smile.

"That's true!" Although Qi Shan's understanding of the Soul Palace was just the tip of the iceberg, he also knew how terrifying the Soul Palace was.

“This time, all members of the Soul Palace branch in the Northwest Continent have been dispatched, including the Palace Master. With such strength, there is no way Xiong Ba can escape. And the Soul Palace is determined to capture Xiao Yan this time, otherwise they would not have asked people like us for help. To put it bluntly, we are just the Soul Palace’s backup plan to prevent accidents.” Mo Tianxing said with a self-deprecating smile.

Qi Shan was surprised again. Even the guardian was at the Dou Zong level, so the hall master must be at the Dou Zun level!
Mo Tianxing glanced at Qi Shan and saw that Qi Shan looked very surprised. He smiled and said, "Get ready. All members of our Black Emperor Sect will participate. How can we miss this opportunity that is not dangerous and can bring benefits?"

"Yes!" Qi Shan nodded seriously, already expecting to snatch some good things from Xiao Yan.

After Xiao Yan came out of the Black Emperor Sect, he directly found a hotel to stay in. Now his every move was under surveillance by others, but Xiao Yan was too lazy to pay attention to it, as he had already understood this.

Now that he had obtained the Bodhi Body Transformation Saliva, he had to bear such a risk. Xiao Yan also knew that there would be many dangers ahead. These people in the Black Horn Region were like vicious wolves, and they would pounce on Xiao Yan and bite him at any time.

"What should we do next? There must be a lot of strong men lying in ambush outside the city, waiting for us to get out!" Nalan Yanran frowned slightly and asked with a worried look on her face.

Hearing this, Xiao Yan smiled faintly and said, "I am not worried about those people outside the city. Even the old demon, I don't take it seriously. What I am worried about is the other force!"

With Xiao Yan’s current strength, he has almost no rivals below the level of Dou Zun, so he dares to say such arrogant words. However, there is still a branch of the Soul Palace in this northwest continent!
Although it is a branch hall, the strength of the hall master is definitely not lower than that of a Dou Zun. Xiao Yan is not very confident when fighting against a Dou Zun level strong man.

"There is another force?" Nalan Yanran suddenly became confused.

Xiao Yan saw that Nalan Yanran was a little confused, but he didn't explain to her. He knocked on the handle of the chair twice, and then said to Nalan Yanran and Zi Yan: "You two go to the door and don't let anyone in."

Seeing that Xiao Yan was unwilling to say more, Nalan Yanran did not continue to ask. She grabbed Zi Yan's hand and pulled her out.

After Nalan Yanran left, Xiao Yan set up a layer of protection for the entire room, and then took out a small jade bottle wrapped in strange fire from his ring.

Xiao Yan snapped his fingers, and the strange fire at the mouth of the bottle immediately dissipated. A ball of black mist quickly rushed out of the bottle, trying to escape, but was stopped by a layer of transparent cover.

"Guardian Wu, why are you in such a hurry to leave?" Xiao Yan looked at the black mist in front of him, and a smile appeared on his lips. The black mist slowly condensed and turned into a black shadow, floating in front of Xiao Yan, threatening: "Humph! You'd better let me go, otherwise the Soul Palace will not let you go!"

“It seems that Protector Wu doesn’t understand his current situation!” Xiao Yan narrowed his eyes slightly, and a ball of black and white flame appeared out of thin air, wrapping up Protector Wu.

"Ah!" Soul bodies like Wu Hufa were most afraid of things like strange fire, and they screamed in pain when they were burned.

After just a moment, Wu Hufa could no longer bear it and shouted, "What do you want in exchange for letting me go?"

"I ask questions and you answer them. If you tell even a lie, there's no need for you to exist. Anyway, I have three Soul Palace guardians! It doesn't matter who I ask!" Xiao Yan withdrew the Strange Fire and said in a cold tone.

Wu Hufa breathed a sigh of relief. The feeling of being burned by the flames was too painful. He really didn't want to go through it anymore. He could only helplessly reply, "What do you want to ask?"

"How many branches does the Soul Palace have in this northwestern continent?" Xiao Yan asked, looking at the protector Wu.

Hearing this, Wu Hufa was suddenly shocked. Xiao Yan was preparing to attack the Soul Palace! He wanted to destroy the Soul Palace branch in the Northwest Continent.

Seeing that Protector Wu had fallen silent, Xiao Yan curled up his lips into a sneer, and wrapped Protector Wu with the Yin-Yang flames again, ready to continue burning.

"I'll tell you! I'll tell you!" When the protector Wu saw the flames surrounding him, he was immediately frightened.

"My patience is limited! If you are still like this, I don't mind changing you to the next one!" Xiao Yan said in a cold tone.

"Because the northwest continent is too barren, there is only one branch temple." Dharma Protector Wu said honestly.

Hearing this, Xiao Yan suddenly fell silent. After thinking for a while, he continued to ask, "Where is the location of the branch hall?"

“This…” Although Wu knew that he would surely die if he revealed the location of the branch hall, his life was now in Xiao Yan’s hands, so he could only reluctantly say, “It’s in a very hidden place in the Tianxin Empire, called the Sky Burial Stream.”

“Who are the powerful ones in this Soul Palace? Not to mention those below Dou Zong.” Xiao Yan continued to ask.

"This branch hall has a hall master and a deputy hall master, as well as guardians. There are three guardians in total. In addition to me and the Iron Guardian you captured, there is also a Guardian Xuan. This Guardian Xuan is mainly responsible for collecting the souls of the strong men in the Black Horn Region. His strength is lower than mine, and he is a four-star Dou Zong." Guardian Wu replied.

"How strong are the hall master and deputy hall master?" Xiao Yan didn't care much about these guardians. What he cared about was the strength of the hall master.

"I only know that the deputy hall master broke through to the Dou Zun level three years ago. As for the hall master, I don't know how strong he is, but I estimate that he is at least a three-star Dou Zun. I think you also know how terrifying the strength of a Dou Zun is. Although your strength is also very strong, there is still a big gap compared to a Dou Zun, so you'd better let me go!" said the protector Wu with a sigh.
