Reaching the pinnacle from Doupo

Chapter 530 The Visitor, the Mission Accomplished, and the Birth of a Son
"My dear Lin Yuan, my imperial consort, you've finally remembered me..."

The moment the spatial passage took shape, a delicate and melodious female voice, tinged with a hint of melancholy, drifted out from within it.

Then, a tall and slender, captivating figure slowly emerged in the distorted space.

The purple-haired girl lightly lifted her jade-like feet and gracefully stepped out of the silver spatial passage, appearing in this sunlit world. Her purple-gold eyes glanced around, and the dragon and phoenix patterns on her skirt moved, exuding an aura of nobility that made the world pale in comparison.

Enveloped by this aura, Feng Qing'er's soul trembled violently.

Because this aura contained an irresistible, noble pressure that she could not resist—pressure that originated from her soul, from her bloodline…

Even the proud Feng Qing'er unconsciously lowered her head and raised her forehead at this moment.

Looking at the toes of the person in front of her, Feng Qing'er had no doubt that if she hadn't been sitting cross-legged, she would have already collapsed to her knees.

The Dragon-Phoenix Bloodline is not only the ultimate form of the Ancient Dragon of the Void, but also the ultimate form of the Ancient Celestial Phoenix!

Zi Yan searched around but couldn't find Lin Yuan. Her pretty brows furrowed slightly, but soon she seemed to have discovered something interesting. Her gaze lowered and fell on Feng Qing'er, who was trembling in front of her. A playful smile appeared on her lips.

"Oh? A Heavenly Demon Phoenix that's not even at the seventh rank, yet it still carries a lot of his aura and his medicinal scent... Is it the toy my dog ​​recently found?"

She walked slowly to Feng Qing'er, extended her slender finger, gently lifted Feng Qing'er's chin, and asked with a smile.

Feng Qing'er felt an irresistible force that compelled her to raise her head and meet Zi Yan's gaze, directly confronting the light gleaming in those purple-gold eyes.

Her phoenix blood began to boil and tremble, and a sense of submissiveness involuntarily arose in her heart.

At this moment, Feng Qing'er was filled with unparalleled shock—what a powerful and noble bloodline this was, far surpassing even the clan leader!

As her thoughts raced, she vaguely guessed the identity of the person in front of her, and an undisguised look of horror appeared in her eyes.

The lady Lin Yuan mentioned is the Ancient Dragon Emperor of the Void?!

On the other side, Zi Yan smiled slightly, revealing a gentle yet imposing smile, and said, "Little girl from the Heavenly Phoenix Clan, tell me honestly, who are you? Has anything interesting happened between you and my husband?"

At the same time, she silently added her own little thoughts to her mind.

Heh heh heh, Lin Yuan, I've finally caught you red-handed! I'll tell Sister Xi Yue and Sister Little Fairy Doctor on you, then we'll see what happens...

Upon hearing Zi Yan's words, Feng Qing'er finally came to her senses and quickly took out a jade slip and a storage ring, handing them to Zi Yan.

"He asked me to pass this on to you...it's urgent!"

"Urgent?!" Upon hearing this, Zi Yan's expression immediately turned serious. She reached out and took the newly carved soul jade slip, placed it between her eyebrows, and quickly read the information within.

A moment later, she had finished reading the message in the jade slip, and a look of understanding appeared in her eyes.

"So that's what happened, the Ancestral Restoration Plan... the Azure Heaven Overlord Body... the matter of the Heavenly Meteor Mountains... Soul Wind, Soul Imprint... seizing the Void Devouring Flame Sub-Fire..."

Putting away the jade slip, Zi Yan closed her eyes and began to activate the method within the jade slip, sensing the mark that Lin Yuan had buried on Hun Feng's body.

"Found it...it's there!"

A short while later, Zi Yan opened her eyes, a glint of light flashing within them. She then casually tore open a spatial rift, saying, "Little girl from the Heavenly Phoenix Clan, come with me..."

After saying that, Zi Yan took a step and stepped into the crevice. Feng Qing'er dared not disobey in the slightest and quickly got up to follow.

As the two entered, the spatial rift trembled slightly before disappearing...
-
At the same time, in the Tianyun Mountains.

At the edge of the cliff at the mountaintop, Lin Yuan and Gu Xun'er stood side by side, but the atmosphere... was more subtle than before.

"A letter from Brother Xiao Yan?"

Looking at the perfectly sealed letter in front of her, a hint of joy flashed in Gu Xun'er's eyes, and she reached out to take the letter.

However, Lin Yuan withdrew his hand in a flash, leaving her with nothing.

Meeting the girl's slightly angry gaze, he curled his lips into a mocking smile and said calmly, "Junior Sister Xun'er, it's not that I can't give you this letter, but shouldn't you give me what I want? Let's settle this with cash on delivery..."

Upon hearing this, Gu Xun'er didn't utter any pointless harsh words. She gave Lin Yuan a deep look with her beautiful eyes, a hint of helplessness flashing through her heart.

"This person really doesn't trust me at all!"

She shook her head, flicked her finger, and a strangely shaped transparent container flew out of her storage ring, hovering lightly in front of Lin Yuan.

Inside the container, a wisp of brilliant golden flame burned peacefully.

"This feeling... it's the Golden Emperor's Burning Heaven Flame... very good!" Lin Yuan sensed it briefly, and a look of joy immediately appeared in his eyes.

"I wouldn't break my promise!" Gu Xun'er snorted lightly, raised her head, and met Lin Yuan's gaze directly, saying, "I've already prepared what I wanted for you! Since you've fulfilled your responsibility, I will naturally keep my promise. You didn't need to go to such lengths..."

Even before arriving here, Gu Xun'er had already decided to "shift the blame" and had made the necessary preparations—preparing a reward for appeasement.

After being "targeted" by Lin Yuan several times, she realized that she couldn't scheme against him without any preparation.

"Haha, who knows?"

When Lin Yuan heard her words, he simply shrugged and remained noncommittal.

Regardless of the fact that this woman is prone to losing control and rationality when it comes to Xiao Yan, even if she were truly a trustworthy person, Lin Yuan would never place his hopes on her.

Cooperation and transactions, precautions and checks and balances are the best ways for them to get along.

"Junior Sister Xun'er, it's a pleasure to work with you!" Lin Yuan put away the Golden Emperor's Flame and handed over the letter: "As a token of my sincerity, I can also deliver a letter to you."

"You would be so kind?"

Gu Xun'er reached out and took the letter, looking at the cunning young man before her with suspicion, "You're not plotting something again, are you? Don't involve Brother Xiao Yan..."

However, she did not directly refuse. Now that her every move is under scrutiny, it is not convenient for her to contact Xiao Yan.

If there is an opportunity to contact them, we should not let it pass easily.

"The item you're handing over is a bonus from our collaboration. Whether you want it or not is up to you!" Lin Yuan simply shrugged, a playful expression on his face. "If Xiao Yan weren't nearby, I wouldn't bother with this..."

"What? Brother Xiao Yan is here too?"

Upon hearing this, Gu Xun'er's expression changed slightly. She had sensed the surroundings when she arrived but hadn't noticed anything.

So, those scenes from just now... damn it!
After a moment's thought, Gu Xun'er immediately understood Lin Yuan's earlier actions—those slightly ambiguous gestures—and a hint of anger flashed in her eyes. This guy was doing it on purpose, toying with her and Xiao Yan's feelings!

Seeing this, Lin Yuan smiled playfully, a hint of mockery in his eyes, and said meaningfully, "It seems you've come to your senses."

"Junior Sister Xun'er, how are things? Do you still need me to bring you something? After all, you have some things to explain to Brother Xiao, don't you? Hehe, men's suspicions in certain matters are far stronger than you think..."

"If some things are not explained clearly as soon as possible, and the doubts are allowed to grow, hehe, I guarantee you will never want to see that result."

"Remember today's lesson... There's a price to pay for playing tricks and shifting blame!"

"Oh, and remember to say 'please' to me later!"

Gu Xun'er bit her lower lip lightly, a conflicted look appearing on her pretty face. She knew that if she didn't explain things clearly in time, it might leave a rift in Xiao Yan's heart.

It was something she was reluctant to do, but she was also unwilling to bow down to Lin Yuan.

"Hmph, you win!"

However, Gu Xun'er ultimately abided by "Xiao Yan's First Law," put aside her pride, and compromised.

After silently exhaling in her heart, she opened Xiao Yan's letter and began to read it. Before long, a gentle smile appeared on her beautiful face.

After a long while, Gu Xun'er closed the letter, a faint look of anticipation flashing in her eyes.

With a slight frown, she pondered for a moment, then took out a silver jade slip. With a gentle wave of her hand, she infused it with several streams of soul power containing information.

"Senior Lin Yuan, please pass these two items on to Brother Xiao Yan for me!"

With a flick of her jade hand, Gu Xun'er produced a golden scroll, which she then handed to Lin Yuan along with the jade slip in her hand.

The complete Emperor Seal Technique is enough to ensure that Xiao Yan has no shortage of means to fight enemies when he reaches the Dou Zong and Dou Zun realms.

At the same time, her tone softened slightly as she spoke—from Xiao Yan's letter, she understood why she couldn't tell him, and she also understood that, in a sense, Lin Yuan seemed to have saved her Xiao Yan brother again.

Although Lin Yuan has a somewhat wicked way of doing things, he doesn't seem to have any bad intentions towards her brother Xiao Yan. On the contrary, he has helped her many times.

"Is this... the Emperor's Seal Technique?"

Lin Yuan took the two items, tossed them casually, and raised an eyebrow, saying, "Xiao Yan is quite lucky, but Junior Sister Xun'er, have you forgotten something?"

Gu Xun'er was slightly taken aback. After a brief silence, she opened her mouth slightly and uttered a single word: "Please!"

"Hehe, that's more like it!"

Lin Yuan nodded slightly, put away the scroll and jade slip, and chuckled, "I will pass these on. We'll meet again someday... Miss Ancient Clan!"

After saying that, she casually waved her sleeve, and a crack appeared in the void in front of her. Lin Yuan waved his hand and stepped into it under Xun'er's gaze.

Xun'er suppressed the urge to enter as well, staring blankly as the passage gradually disappeared...
-
On the other side, Zi Yan sensed the mark set by Lin Yuan and quickly caught up with the Soul Clan warship that was flying at high speed.

"Since there are no high-level Dou Sheng present, we can make a move!"

In the void, Zi Yan closed her eyes slightly and carefully sensed the surroundings using the ancient dragon clan's secret techniques. Then, she opened her eyes, a hint of relief flashing in them.

Then, she concealed herself with light and shadow, and with a single step, her figure vanished from the void. The next instant, she silently appeared on the Soul Clan warship, in the quiet room, and beside the bone bed enveloped in an energy shield.

On the bone bed, Hunfeng sat cross-legged, his eyes closed as he regulated his breathing, digesting the medicinal power within his body while healing his injuries.

As if sensing something, he was about to open his eyes to see what was going on.

However, before he could see anything clearly, his brain felt as if it had been struck by a heavy blow, and he once again completely lost consciousness.

At the same time, an invisible boundary expands, completely isolating the inside and outside of the room.

Zi Yan raised her palm and placed it directly on Hun Feng's head, and a strange suction force surged out from her palm.

"The Void Devouring Flame... is here!"

In a fleeting moment, her indifferent gaze suddenly sharpened, and then she clenched her fist.

With Zi Yan's movement, a ball of pitch-black flame, along with the mark Lin Yuan had left in Hun Feng's body, was forcibly extracted from Hun Feng's body. The latter's aura weakened in that instant, clearly indicating that he had suffered a major blow.

Following the message left by Lin Yuan, Zi Yan used the Dragon Clan Sealing Technique to completely seal the Void Flame.

After putting away the sealed Void Flame, she lowered her head slightly, looked down at the extremely weak Soul Wind, and a strange smile appeared on her lips.

"Heh heh, a divine-grade bloodline of the Soul Clan, what a pathetic fellow!"

Before she finished speaking, she flicked her finger, and a pill flew out of her storage ring, radiating a powerful yet gentle energy fluctuation. It was the special pill that Lin Yuan had asked Feng Qing'er to bring.

What makes this pill special is that it is the product of Lin Yuan's experiments combining alchemy and toxicology.

Zi Yan waved her sleeve, and the pill suddenly flew out and landed in Kan Hunfeng's mouth. The latter's aura recovered rapidly at a visible speed.

"Okay, that works!"

Seeing that the expected results had been achieved, Zi Yan nodded and thought to herself.

Immediately, she lightly touched the ground with her toes, and her figure seamlessly merged into the void, disappearing from the heavily guarded warship, leaving only a faint ripple in space that gently echoed in place...

The room was restored to its original state, with only Hunfeng "sound asleep," and not a trace of Ziyan's presence remained, as if she had never been there.
-
After traveling for a while, Lin Yuan quickly left the Tianyun Mountain Range and arrived at the place where he had agreed to meet Xiao Yan.

There, in a secluded valley far from the Tianyun Mountains, surrounded by dense forests, a figure sat cross-legged on a boulder, inhaling and exhaling as he absorbed the vast energy of heaven and earth.

"Even in such a short waiting time, he's using it for cultivation... Heh, has Xiao Yan witnessed the difference in strength and been provoked again?"

"He really switched to cultivating the Heavenly Capital Fire Manual!"

Lin Yuan sensed Xiao Yan's aura, a smile appeared on his lips, and then he flashed and appeared not far in front of Xiao Yan.

Xiao Yan suddenly opened his eyes, a sharp gaze shooting towards the newcomer. "Who?!" But when he saw that the newcomer was Lin Yuan, he breathed a slight sigh of relief. Then, as if remembering something, a complex look flashed in his eyes.

Ignoring Xiao Yan's thoughts, Lin Yuan lightly waved his sleeve, and the golden scroll and silver jade slip flew out of his storage ring and landed in front of Xiao Yan.

"These two items were asked by my junior, Xun'er, to give to you..."
