Starting as a supporting character in Doupo

As soon as Mu Qingluan and her companion appeared, the old man standing next to Mu Qingluan immediately changed his expression and warily protected Mu Qingluan behind him. He secretly lamented, "How can there be such a powerful being in this remote place?"

Moreover, the two of them hadn't provoked anyone, so why were they suddenly being targeted?

"May I ask who you are? My young master and I are merely passing through on business. We have been treated with great courtesy along the way and should not have offended you."

As soon as the old man finished speaking, a plump and mature figure suddenly appeared in mid-air not far from Mu Qingluan and him. Seven-colored energy swirled in the figure's palm, and a seven-colored python coiled in the void behind it. Its diamond-shaped eyes were fixed on the two of them.

"Seven-Colored Sky-Swallowing Python!"

When Mu Qingluan and the other person saw You Ruo appear, a hint of surprise appeared in their eyes. They did not expect that there would be someone in the world who could reawaken the bloodline of this ancient beast.

You Ruo stared at Mu Qingluan and the other person. She had just dealt with the people of the Heavenly Demon Phoenix Clan, and she didn't expect two more to come.

"You must be Her Highness You Ruo, the queen of the Snake-People tribe?"

Just then, Mu Qingluan looked at You Ruo and suddenly spoke, which startled the old man beside her.

Mu Qingluan, having been arranged by Xiao Fan and his group to bring Dou Zun here in order to open up a spatial passage between the Jia Ma Empire and Zhongzhou, naturally knew about the news within the Jia Ma Empire.

The only person who could possess such fighting prowess and be so beautiful and charming is none other than Xiao Fan's rumored wife.

Chapter 12: Xiao Fan's Death

"you know me?"

As You Ruo listened to Mu Qingluan's words, she carefully examined Mu Qingluan and frowned slightly as she looked at the woman in purple who was quite attractive.

Could it be that that scoundrel is still having affairs outside...?

If that's really the case, then I...

A chill ran through You Ruo's heart, causing Mu Qingluan and the Qingluan clan elders in mid-air to feel a sudden coldness.

"I am Mu Qingluan from the Starfall Pavilion. Senior Brothers Xiao Fan and Xiao Yan told me about my visit. The reason I came here is because my two senior brothers are worried about the safety of the Jia Ma Empire. Therefore, they plan to build a space wormhole between the Starfall Pavilion and the Jia Ma Empire so that they can provide support in case of any unforeseen circumstances."

Mu Qingluan gazed at You Ruo's alluring figure in mid-air, her eyes gleaming with a strange light. Even as a woman, she could feel the queen's captivating charm in every glance and movement. Her senior brother Xiao Fan was truly blessed with good fortune...

"I see........"

Upon hearing Mu Qingluan's purpose, You Ruo nodded, a look of understanding on her face, and said to the two of them, "Come with me!"

You Ruo turned around, took a step, and her figure disappeared from the spot.

"Such terrifying strength..."

After You Ruo left, the elder who hadn't spoken until now suddenly spoke up. He had just felt a strong pressure from You Ruo.

With such terrifying strength, if they were to actually fight, he probably wouldn't be a match for You Ruo.

Moreover, the Seven-Colored Sky-Swallowing Python's natural bloodline power has a suppressive effect on the Azure Phoenix Group.

Therefore, the elder of the Azure Phoenix Clan had remained silent.

"Third Elder, you can't even beat her?"

Mu Qingluan glanced at the Third Elder beside her, her face full of surprise.

It turns out that not only is Xiao Fan's own strength terrifyingly powerful, but even his wife's strength is just as terrifying...

"Let's go, let's go see the Xiao family first."

Mu Qingluan shook her head slightly and walked with the Third Elder in the direction where You Ruo disappeared. With the Third Elder, a Dou Zun, leading the way, their speed was naturally extremely fast, and they soon arrived above the capital.

"Ok?"

Upon arriving in the capital, Mu Qingluan and the Third Elder's expressions suddenly changed. The terrifying bloodline aura of the Heavenly Demon Phoenix Clan still lingered in the air.

Mu Qingluan and the Third Elder exchanged a glance, a hint of confusion in their eyes.

"Come down."

You Ruo's voice drifted over, and Mu Qingluan and the Third Elder concealed themselves and landed inside the capital. Looking at the Xiao family mansion, a building with an unassuming appearance but occupying a considerable area in the entire capital, Mu Qingluan and the Third Elder stepped inside, led by members of the Xiao family at the entrance.

"Distinguished guest, I, Xiao, have failed to greet you properly!"

As soon as Mu Qingluan and the Third Elder stepped inside, Xiao Ding and Xiao Li were already waiting for them. As the current acting heads of the Xiao family, Xiao Ding and Xiao Li were naturally extremely polite to Mu Qingluan and the Third Elder after hearing what You Ruo said.

"You're welcome."

Mu Qingluan gave a slight bow. As Xiao Yan's elder brothers, she would not be arrogant because of Xiao Ding and Xiao Li's low strength.

"This was given to me by the young master."

As she spoke, Mu Qingluan took out a scroll from her bosom and handed it to Xiao Ding and the other person.

Xiao Ding took it and saw that it was the Xiao family's traditional martial arts technique, "Raging Lion's Fury". Although it was only a first-level Xuan-rank technique, it was of great significance to the Xiao family.

After all, before the Xiao family rose to prominence, this Xuan-rank cultivation technique was already the Xiao family's most prized possession.

The easiest way for Xiao Yan to prove his identity was naturally the Tuoshe Ancient Emperor Jade, which only the clan leader possessed. However, this was a matter of great importance, and Xiao Yan could not entrust it to others. In the end, it was Xiao Fan who reminded him to use the scroll containing the "Raging Lion's Fury" to prove the identities of Mu Qingluan and the other person.

"Please come in, both of you."

Xiao Ding put away the scroll containing the Mad Lion's Fury, and together with Xiao Li, welcomed Mu Qingluan and the other into the main hall. He said somewhat apologetically:

"Originally, several elders of the clan should have come as well, but they have just experienced a great battle and are currently busy comforting the clan members. Therefore, we are the ones who will receive you."

"It's alright. I was just about to ask, it seems like we just went through a battle..."

"A member of the Heavenly Phoenix Clan, it seems, came to seek revenge because he offended Xiao Fan and his group. You Ruo imprisoned him, but he hasn't spoken yet, so we don't know what happened..."

Mu Qingluan and the Third Elder exchanged a glance, then smiled at Xiao Ding:

"The Heavenly Phoenix Clan couldn't do anything to Xiao Fan, but they didn't expect him to be so despicable. It seems that Xiao Fan and his group's worries were not unfounded."

Mu Qingluan spoke slowly, and You Ruo's figure also appeared in the hall. Right now, what she wanted to hear most was news about Xiao Fan.

after all..........

Even the contract within her body had disappeared. If she hadn't heard Xiao Fan's voice in her ear earlier, explaining that he had infiltrated the Soul Palace in disguise, You Ruo would probably already be on her way to Zhongzhou.

You Ruo sat in a corner of the living room, not intending to interrupt, listening as Mu Qingluan slowly recounted Xiao Fan and the others' deeds in Zhongzhou to Xiao Ding and Xiao Li.

"Making a ruckus at the Four Directions Pavilion..."

"Slay the Heavenly Phoenix Clan..."

"Winning the Dan Tournament championship........."

"The relics of the Creator Saint serve to benefit the fisherman..."

"Slaughtering countless Soul Hall Dou Zun powerhouses..."

Although Mu Qingluan rushed towards the Jia Ma Empire after faking her death, she still received news of what happened on the Xingyun Pavilion Plain from her clan.

"Later, on the plains of the Starfall Pavilion, Xiao Fan and the Pavilion Master devised a plan to kill several Dou Zun from the Soul Hall, and even a Half-Saint level expert was implicated. And in this battle..."

Mu Qingluan slowly glanced at You Ruo, who hadn't spoken a word, before slowly saying:

"Xiao Fan was evenly matched with the Soul Hall's semi-saint level expert, but was ultimately ambushed by Mo Shang, the acting hall master of the Soul Hall... and perished..."

"impossible!"

Xiao Ding and Xiao Li's expressions changed upon hearing Mu Qingluan's words, but before they could speak, they were interrupted by You Ruo.

"How long ago was the Battle of Starfall Plains?"

"It's been almost a month."

Mu Qingluan spoke softly. She was unaware of Xiao Fan's faked death, so she simply assumed that You Ruo couldn't accept it.

"Then that's even more impossible..."

You Ruo's heart stirred; the contract matter—that had just happened...

Chapter 13: Death Rift, Tricking Dou Zun into Cooperation

You Ru pondered that the breakup of her contract with Xiao Fan had only just happened, but according to him, the Battle of Starfall Plains had already been over for nearly a month, which was clearly not right.

And what I just mentioned, "Don't be hurt"...

You Ruo's expression suddenly changed. So, the so-called "Mo Shang" who killed Xiao Fan was the clone he was talking about.

Acting branch master of the Soul Palace........

You Ruo had not expected that Xiao Fan's clone in the Soul Palace had actually climbed to such a high position.

only.........

Suppressing her worries, You Ruo nodded gently, looked at Mu Qingluan and the other person, and said:

"The sooner the better for building wormholes in space, the better. I have no objection."

"But the location where this was built..."

Hearing You Ruo's words, Xiao Ding and Xiao Li also hesitated.

"Let's build it within the capital city."

You Ruo spoke softly. As the strongest person in the entire Jia Ma Empire, coupled with her status as Xiao Fan's wife and the acting leader of the Yan Alliance, her words carried the weight of the entire Jia Ma Empire's decision.

As for the exit of the space wormhole, this was designed to facilitate future communication between the Starfall Pavilion and the Xiao family. Therefore, it was most suitable to build this formation within the Snake-People race or the Xiao family.

However, after some thought, You Ruo decided to prevent the exit from the Xiao family.

After all, even if someone really wanted to target them, they would be much more likely to choose the Xiao family.

With the news brought by Mu Qingluan and the others, You Ruo's previous defeat and imprisonment of the Heavenly Demon Phoenix Clan naturally rendered her meaningless. After handing over the decision on the exit of the spatial wormhole to Xiao Ding and the others, You Ruo left.
