Chapter 367 Buying Time
Gu Yuan heard Xun'er mention Xiao Yan, thought for a moment before he knew who he was talking about, and then investigated.

Under his huge soul power, even if Yao Chen concealed it, he still found some traces, but he could only judge from the traces that Xiao Yan had encountered a soul body.

As an old rival of the Soul Clan for thousands of years, he still had some understanding of the Soul Body, so he didn't have many surprises. He just thought it was Xiao Yan's good luck that he encountered it.

That is to say, the soul body is medicine dust, otherwise it would not be hidden under Gu Yuan's detection, and it would have been discovered long ago.

Although Yao Chen's soul power was somewhat different from Gu Yuan's, they were at the same level after all. With only those traces, Gu Yuan could not find him.

But even so, Yao Chen still felt that he didn't understand why such a powerful person came to the small Wutan City.

He didn't even dare to remind Xiao Yan and cut off the contact directly. He didn't even dare to breathe out, for fear that Yuan would notice him while breathing and cause unnecessary trouble.

He didn't know Gu Yuan, even though he was famous in Zhongzhou during his lifetime, and even though he himself was from the Dou Emperor family, he knew that the little girl had a complicated origin, but he didn't expect that she would be so big!
He also didn't expect that this small city of Wutan seemed to have something special. Abnormal things happened one after another, and now there would be such a terrifying existence in person.

Although he doesn't know Gu Yuan, he can clearly know how tyrannical Gu Yuan is. Among the many forces on the mainland, there are only a few people with such strength. He can be sure that Gu Yuan must come from several other Dou Emperors. family!
"Is there any secret here? Xiao? Could it be that Xiao?"

An idea suddenly came to Yao Chen's mind, and he couldn't press it down.

Over the past few thousand years, there have been very few nine-star peak experts on the continent, and Xiao Xuan of the Xiao Clan is one of them.Even though thousands of years have passed, there are still records of these few people among various tribes.

Even though he was expelled from the Yao Clan, he still knew that a thousand years ago, the Dou Emperor families were collectively known as the Eight Ancient Clan, and among them, there happened to be one named Xiao!
Xiao Xuan, who all clans must treat with caution, came from the Xiao clan.

Thinking of this, he became curious about this small family whose strongest person was only in the realm of fighting spirits.

"But this doesn't make sense. If it's really the surname Xiao, how could the Soul Clan let them pass it on?"

The battle between the Xiao Clan and the Hun Clan is not a secret to several families. Yao Chen remembered that the records in the clan were that the Hun Clan attacked as a whole, the Xiao world was shattered, and the Xiao Clan was destroyed. He did not believe in the Hun Clan's ability. , the remnants of the Xiao family will not be discovered.

Then Yao Chen thought that the terrifying soul power just now was definitely at the emperor level, and there were absolutely very few emperor souls on this continent. I am afraid that only those two families have such level of existence. I couldn't help but guess:
"Hmm, is it possible that this person is a member of the ancient clan? According to the records, although the relationship between the Xiao and Gu clans is not very close, it is definitely not bad. They took action to protect the Xiao family?"

Yao Chen's doubts were destined to have no one to answer. After Gu Yuan's investigation, he found nothing except that Xiao Yan had encountered a soul body.

He just assumed that the soul body had left after its recovery, without thinking about the person's soul in the imperial realm.

"He's very good. I didn't expect that there could be a genius of this level in the Xiao family. Alas..." Gu Yuan gave Xun'er a positive answer, and then he seemed to have thought of something and sighed slightly, looking worried. Looking like this, I murmured in my heart:
"I don't know if Xiao Xuan has any regrets? If he is still alive, with his ability, how can this kid with such a talent become a fighting saint? Now, it's difficult..."

Xun'er didn't know that her father thought of the old man who reminded him of Alexander when he was alive and missed him when he died. After she heard that Xiao Yan was okay, she felt relieved, but she just nodded lightly on her face, and then moved on. The topic was changed and he asked about another thing:
"What is the soul body that Father just mentioned?"

Gu Yuan explained briefly and said:
"Generally speaking, when the soul power is strong to a certain extent, even if the body is damaged, it can still exist with soul power. There are even some powerful alchemists who can exert considerable strength with soul power alone. Of course, they are only a minority. There are no Without the protection of the physical body, it is difficult to survive for a long time with the power of the soul alone, and most of the soul bodies can only linger and eventually dissipate completely."

Xun'er was not interested in these things. What she wanted to know was whether the soul body had any ill intentions towards Xiao Yan, but she couldn't ask directly, so she simply pretended to be confused and took this opportunity to mention the soul clan:
"Could he be related to the Soul Clan?"

Hearing her question, a cold light flashed in Gu Yuan's eyes. The Soul Clan's understanding of the soul was indeed not comparable to his, otherwise he would not have sent Xun'er out.

Although he did not feel the unique aura of the Soul Clan in the dissipated soul, he did not dare to be overconfident. He began to meditate. If he was really a Soul Clan person, Xun'er might have already stayed here if he continued to stay here. It's not safe anymore.

He looked at Xun'er and expressed his opinion:
"Xun'er, I was originally going to let you break through the Douzong and take you back to the clan, but now the Soul clan may know your existence. It's no longer safe here. It's time for you to return to the clan."

Xun'er didn't expect that her casual words would actually make Gu Yuan want to take her back. How could she be willing, but she didn't say much, and just asked:
"Is the clan safe? If the clan is safe, why would my father send me here?"

She had memories of her childhood, so she naturally remembered that she was seriously injured by a member of the clan and almost died.

Gu Yuan opened his mouth, but didn't say anything. Even now, he still can't guarantee that there are no more people from the Soul Clan in the clan, and even if there are really no people from the Soul Clan, Xun'er is not absolutely safe. Benefits are exciting, how many people would be willing to see something that originally belonged to them suddenly taken away?
Although Xun'er asked him, he did not give up the idea of ​​taking Xun'er away. He also did not force an explanation, he just said:
"This time, I will protect you for my father's sake and keep you safe."

Xun'er shook his head and said:
"Father is in trouble. With your strength, what difference does it make in the ancient world or here? Now it's just my father's guess, but if I go back, I will really come into the sight of the Soul Clan."

When Gu Yuan heard what Xun'er said, he thought for a moment and found that this seemed to be the case. The soul power here was indeed not like those of the Soul Clan, and they had already left. If it was really the Soul Clan, they would have found them long ago. .

And just like Xun'er said, with his ability, it's not difficult to be at Xun'er's side in an instant. It really doesn't make much difference where he is.

"If father is really worried, he might as well find something to do for the Soul Clan so that they have no time to worry about him. Don't worry, it won't take long for me to break through the Douzong."

Seeing that Gu Yuan's will to take her away was not strong, Xun'er continued to analyze, just to buy some time for herself and Xiao Yan.

She actually knew that it was not realistic for her to stay all the time. One day she would have to go back, but she couldn't do it now. She was afraid that Xiao Yan would forget her once she left.
