Battle Through the Heavens: Emperor Yan, please restrain yourself; your elder brother is truly hones

"Hmm." Yao Chen closed his eyes with heartache, and after a long while, a bitter smile appeared on his face. He said, "It's a long story."

Next, Yao Chen began to recount a past event, starting from when he and Mu Gu were learning alchemy together. The latter was expelled by Han Shanshan, who was both his teacher and friend, because of his evil intentions. After Han Shanshan disappeared, he went to the Black Corner Region to investigate and unexpectedly encountered the Han family being wiped out by bandits. In the ruins, he found the only survivor, Han Feng, and raised him as his personal disciple and half-son.

As a result, Han Feng was bewitched by Mu Gu, who used a poisoned dagger to ambush him and joined forces with Mu Gu to attack him. At the critical moment, he chose to self-destruct, but he managed to survive because of his high soul realm and the Bone Flame Ring.

"Damn it!"

After hearing Yao Chen's story, Xiao Yan was furious and said, "You ingrate! If it weren't for you, Teacher, he would have died long ago. He actually cooperated with his enemy for profit. He deserves to die."

"This kind of person deserves to be torn to pieces, ripped apart by five horses, and fed to the dogs."

Although they had only known each other for a little over a year, Xiao Yan already held this encyclopedic, strict yet humorous teacher in high regard.

In his view, Han Feng's actions deserved a terrible death.

In fact, Xiao Zhan was also quite angry, and thought to himself that it was good that Zhang Yuan didn't act like that.

“They really deserve to die.” Xun’er and Qing Yanjing nodded.

Xun'er even wanted to get the clan's experts to help, she was really disgusted by Han Feng.

"Han Feng, huh?" Zhang Yuan's expression was equally cold as he said, "Brother Yan, if you want to kill Han Feng, as long as you have enough strength, you'll have the opportunity very soon."

"Cousin, do you know where Han Feng is?" Xiao Yan asked immediately, and Yao Chen also looked over.

“Hmm.” Zhang Yuan nodded and said, “When I was stationed at one of the three major fortresses in the south of the empire, I heard of Han Feng, the city lord of Maple City in the Black Corner Region. He is now a peak Dou Huang and a sixth-grade alchemist.”

Upon hearing this, Xiao Yan immediately said, "Alright, once I go to Canaan Academy and improve my strength, I will immediately clean up the mess for my teacher."

Yao Chen's expression was complex yet cold as he said, "Little Yanzi, safety comes first. There's no rush to take revenge."

"Don't worry, senior, I will help with this matter as well," Zhang Yuan said. "I can't stand ingrates and double standards. This Han Feng is already courting death."

Xiao Yan immediately nodded in agreement: "That's right, Han Feng has a way of courting death!"

“This kind of person really doesn’t know how lucky he is,” Zhang Yuan said coldly. “If Gu He knew, he would probably want to kill him too.”

The others were taken aback. Xiao Yan asked in confusion, "Cousin, is Gu He really that righteous?"

"Hating evil as if it were your enemy? Perhaps." Zhang Yuan smiled and said, "Gu He and Han Feng are about the same age, but unlike Han Feng, who was adopted and raised by the old master Yao from a young age, Gu He was lucky enough to obtain the alchemist's inheritance and then embarked on the path of alchemist on his own. Now he is also a sixth-grade alchemist."

“I have met Gu He. He can be described as a gentleman. He is very disciplined in his conduct and does not have the arrogance that most alchemists have.”

"If he had been found by Elder Yao, he would probably be a seventh-grade alchemist now, or even an eighth-grade one."

"If you knew what Han Feng, that ungrateful wretch, had done, wouldn't you think he deserved to die?"

“Indeed!” Qing Yanjing nodded.

Xun'er sat there upright and said in a serious tone, "Xun'er thinks that if Gu He knew about this..."

"I will definitely say it."

"Han Feng, you have a way to die."

puff!

Hahaha!

Xun'er, you've put your knowledge into practice.

Dear readers, please vote for me with your recommendation tickets and monthly tickets! I'm starting a new month tomorrow.

The data looks good, and I've been consistently updating with 10,000 words per day!

Chapter 84 Xun'er bites me, so it's normal for me to bite back!

Xun'er spoke of the way to die, her expression perfectly mimicking the act.

Qing Yanjing, Zhang Yuan, Xiao Zhan, and the others couldn't help but chuckle.

“Xun’er is right, Gu He must really want Han Feng dead.” Zhang Yuan put away his smile and said to Yao Lao, “Senior, why don’t you take Gu He as your disciple and have him clean up your mess?”

"Cousin!" Before Yao Lao could speak, Xiao Yan said unhappily, "Teacher has me, that's enough."

This kid is actually trying to win favor.

Zhang Yuan rolled his eyes and said, "No vision. If you take Gu He as your disciple, then he will be your junior brother."

"If a sixth-grade alchemist becomes your junior brother, you'll have respect wherever you go in the Northwest Continent."

"If Gu He becomes a seventh-grade alchemist under the guidance of a senior, your prestige will be even greater."

I, Xiao Yan, care about my reputation. Hurry up and send the money!

Upon imagining this scene, Xiao Yan's eyes lit up, and he immediately said, "Teacher, why don't you take Gu He as your disciple?"

"What are you thinking about?" Yao Lao said irritably, "Gu He was able to become a sixth-grade alchemist on his own, so his talent is worthy of my attention. If his personality is as Yuan boy described, then his character is also fine. But since he has already become a sixth-grade alchemist, would he still want to become an apprentice?"

"It wouldn't hurt to give it a try," Xiao Yan said.

“It’s still possible.” Zhang Yuan smiled and said, “Given Gu He’s personality, if you guide him to become a seventh-grade alchemist and teach him the method of condensing the soul of the Spirit Realm, he could become an eighth-grade alchemist. Even if you don’t take him as your disciple, he will still treat you with the respect due to a disciple.”

There was one more thing Zhang Yuan didn't mention: Gu He's most admired person was Yao Chen.

Despite being a member of the Yao clan, few people outside of the ancient imperial clans know that Yao Chen is actually a member of the Yao clan.

Furthermore, Yao Chen was framed and escaped from the Yao Clan. His ability to become the number one alchemist on the continent was not only unrelated to the Yao Clan, but he was also pressured and persecuted by them. His imperial bloodline was almost gone. He achieved this success entirely through his own efforts in adversity. He also single-handedly established the Starfall Pavilion, making him a pinnacle of rogue cultivators.

Looking at Yao Lao's life alone, if we don't count his time with Han Feng, it's definitely a protagonist's story. If he had the courage to switch to cultivating the Burning Technique, he could have become the main character. He might even have been able to revive Han Shanshan and marry Xuan Yi, Hua Yu, and the fox princess.

In short, every alchemist on the Battle Through the Heavens admired and revered him, but Gu He admired him even more deeply.

"Oh?" The old apothecary's mind stirred.

Those qualified to become alchemists are already extremely rare, and those with outstanding talent and excellent character are even rarer. If Gu He really is as Zhang Yuan said, he wouldn't mind taking on another ready-made disciple.

However, he will only pass on the Burning Technique to Xiao Yan, and he will only accept alchemist disciples as apprentices.

"I'll take a look when I have the chance," the old doctor said with a noncommittal smile.

Zhang Yuan didn't say anything more, otherwise it would have been a bit too much.

Gu He's talent and character are indeed remarkable. If he receives guidance from the old alchemist, he will definitely become a seventh-grade alchemist much faster, showing the potential to become an eighth-grade alchemist. As for the ninth grade, it depends on luck.

Even if Guhe cannot become Yao Lao's disciple, his conduct will not be worse than that of a direct disciple. He can use this relationship to recruit Guhe to his own side.

Then Guhe can help Yandi refine pills together. As a good cousin, he really worries about Yandi a lot.

"Uncle, I'll leave the rest to you to handle things with the Xiao family."

This time, everyone talked so openly and honestly, and the trust between us has deepened.

Seeing that it was almost time, Zhang Yuan sent Xiao Zhan and Xiao Yan out of the space, instructing them to handle the Xiao family's relocation.

The small world fell silent for a moment. Xun'er blinked and said, "Brother Yuan, as for Han Feng's situation, it would be better to just have Elder Ling handle it."

“Elder Ling is not enough.” Zhang Yuan shook his head and said, “Han Feng has mastered a different kind of fire, and as a sixth-grade alchemist, he has a lot of connections in the Black Corner Region. He also has connections with the Soul Palace. To kill him, it would be safer to send three Dou Zongs at once and launch a sneak attack.”

"Mmm." Xun'er nodded obediently.

She was just making a suggestion; she wasn't insisting.

Qingyan sat quietly to the side and took out a tea set to brew tea for the two of them.

At this moment, Zhang Yuan suddenly took out the wooden box given to him by Xiao Zhan. After opening it, he found an ancient jade lying inside, emitting a strange glow. There were some strange patterns on the surface, which were sometimes bright and sometimes faint, like breathing.

"The Ancient Jade of Tuoshe!!!"

Xun'er glanced at the ancient jade without realizing it, her pupils suddenly contracted, and her breath caught in her throat.

The ancient jade that his father had asked him to investigate and acquire if he had the chance was now appearing so brazenly in front of him.

"Thoshegudi".

Zhang Yuan took the ancient jade into his hands.

The next moment, something unexpected yet perfectly logical happened.

He felt the image of Thor in his mind move, like the sound of thunder drums, and a beam of light enveloped the ancient jade.

Immediately following, an ancient and primordial aura emerged below the Thor visualization diagram, gradually transforming into the phantom of an old man.

The old man was dressed in a black robe, but his hair displayed several colors, each one resembling rising flames, which was extremely strange.

Zhang Yuan could clearly see the old man's face; it was ordinary and plain, but his eyes were deeper than the starry sky, drawing people in unconsciously and making them feel that he was the master of heaven and earth.

Under that gaze, Zhang Yuan felt his soul tremble.

This is the gaze of the phantom of the Ancient Emperor Tuoshe. Even the Soul Emperor, a peak Dou Sheng, would feel fear when facing it.

But Zhang Yuan was not afraid. This was not because he was stronger or more resilient than the Soul Emperor, but because the drumbeats coming from the Thunder God Visualization Diagram calmed the figure down and even made it docile.

The next moment, light shone from the eyes of the two phantoms, transforming into an image that appeared beneath the Thor diagram.

A vast, boundless mountain range appears first, then the scene abruptly shifts downwards, descending into the ground, transforming into a sea of ​​fire, and finally into an endless ocean of lava.

As they ventured deeper, strange creatures resembling lizards appeared, their eyes filled with bloodlust and ferocity.

Finally, deep at the bottom of the lava, an ancient stone door emerged.

The inscription reads: Ancient Emperor's Cave!

Zhang Yuan: "."

I thought it would bring some kind of adventure, but I never expected it would just be a map of the ancient emperor's cave.

You might say it's terrible, but this map was originally supposed to be created by the Soul Emperor using the blood of a peak Dou Sheng to refine and reconstruct the ancient jade, summoning a phantom, and then guided by the Void Devouring Flame into the eyes of the Tuoshe Ancient Emperor's phantom before it could be revealed.

But now, he has only obtained one-eighth of the ancient jade, and has obtained the complete map without paying anything.

But no matter how good it is, the ancient emperor's cave is very well located, and he doesn't need to search the entire continent with a map, so this map is completely useless.

"If only I could inherit the legacy of Emperor Tuoshe, and through analogy, become the Thunder Emperor?"

Zhang Yuan thought to himself, somewhat greedily.

It all seems like a long story, but it all happened in an instant.

After looking at the map, Zhang Yuan casually put the ancient jade into the wooden box and then tossed it aside.

The wooden box was then transported to an extremely secluded corner of this space, where it's uncertain when it will see the light of day.

After doing all this, Zhang Yuan turned to meet Xun'er's gaze and said, "Xun'er, you came to the Xiao family, right? It must be for this ancient jade, isn't it?"

"!" Xun'er's delicate body trembled, and her face turned pale, without a trace of blood.
