Battle Through the Heavens: Starting from the Jia Ma Empire

Chapter 201 Master and Disciple's Conspiracy

Behind Canaan Academy, as Little Fairy Doctor Lin Feng and others entered seclusion one after another, the place gradually returned to its former tranquility, with only the endless waterfall flowing freely as if it had no time to spare.

"Teacher, are you really sure that the Fallen Heart Flame, ranked fourteenth on the Strange Flame Ranking, is sealed inside this Heavenly Refining Tower?"

As the sun set, the already somewhat dark Skyfire Refining Tower was suddenly shrouded in darkness. Fortunately, the surrounding walls were covered with animal oil extracted from the bodies of some unknown magical beasts, which brought some light to the place.

Inside the cultivation tower, which is extremely helpful for cultivation, there was a strange master and disciple who were not cultivating at the moment, but instead plotting something.

"Little Flame, you must have felt the strange connection between the different flames. There must be a different flame sealed beneath the Heavenly Flame Refining Tower, and only the Fallen Heart Flame, ranked fourteenth on the Different Flame Ranking, meets the criteria for enhancing cultivation and purifying battle qi!"

Yao Chen slowly floated out from Xiao Yan's palm, stood with his hands behind his back in the void in front of Xiao Yan, and focused his mind on sensing.

"Teacher," Xiao Yan swallowed unconsciously upon hearing about the strange fire, "Should we take action to capture it?"

"Bang!"

"Teacher, what are you doing!"

Xiao Yan squatted on the ground, covering his head with his hand after being hit hard by Yao Chen, looking completely innocent, which made Yao Chen want to hit him again.

Do you know how powerful Canaan Academy is now?

Yao Chen looked up at the outside of the Heavenly Flame Refining Tower. In his perception, there were at least three Dou Zong in the inner courtyard alone. Glancing at his bewildered disciple, Yao Chen didn't expect him to know anything and continued speaking to himself.

"Leaving aside the strength of Canaan Academy itself, your senior brother Lin Feng is a Dou Zong expert, and he also possesses a different kind of fire. Given your current situation, he is no match for you."

"If you try to seize the Fallen Heart Flame by force, we, master and disciple, will most likely perish on the spot; the best-case scenario is being expelled from the academy!"

"What should we do?"

Upon hearing his master's analysis, Xiao Yan's face immediately drooped, like a sunflower that hadn't received any nourishment.

Upon hearing his foolish disciple's question, Yao Chen, contrary to his usual behavior, ignored him and instead looked in the direction of the Black Corner Region with a complicated expression, as if he had seen someone.

The pain, regret, sorrow, anger, and other emotions intertwined within the scene, alternating repeatedly on the medicinal dust. This sight startled Xiao Yan, who was waiting to be scolded. "What's wrong with Master? Did I catch it?"

"Master?"

Xiao Yan gently probed, which brought Yao Chen back to his senses, and he sighed softly.

"Little Yanzi, do you still remember what Lin Feng said? I once had a disciple named Han Feng."

The past was recounted again by Yao Chen. Although Lin Feng had told the two of them about it before, hearing it again from the person involved made the surrounding environment seem even more sorrowful.

It makes sense, considering how incredibly talented and charismatic Yao Chen was back then. People like Xuan Yi, one of the current leaders of the Pill Tower, the fairy from the Flower Sect, and even a fox spirit from the Fox Clan...

They were all captivated by him, but shockingly, Yao Chen brought back an orphan at this time, choosing to abandon these women in order to nurture his talent. Fortunately, Han Feng did indeed work hard, showing talent close to that of Yao Chen back then at a young age, a scene that greatly pleased Yao Chen back then.

Unfortunately, the final result is that Yao Chen has ended up in this barren Northwest Continent, becoming the miserable, inhuman creature he is today.

"Master, I will personally capture that beast Han Feng and let you deal with him as you see fit!"

Xiao Yan was filled with indignation. Although Yao Chen had absorbed his Dou Qi for three years, causing him to suffer humiliation for three years, he had gradually come to understand that without those three years, he would most likely have grown into an arrogant and ignorant person, spending his whole life bullying others in Wutan City.

As for the potential to become a Douhuang (Battle Emperor), it's just talk. Without a background or powerful backers, one might perish prematurely at any time.

But now, he has not only achieved the status of a noble alchemist, but also has the opportunity to catch up with a super genius like Senior Brother Lin Feng. That's right, with the Burning Flame Technique in hand, he is very confident that as long as he has enough strange fire, he will catch up with Lin Feng one day.

After so many years of getting along, Xiao Yan had even come to regard Yao Chen as his father. So, hearing about Han Feng, that beast, again naturally made him furious.

Yao Chen glanced at his disciple with satisfaction, inwardly sighing, "Although Xiao Yanzi was indeed momentarily stunned, he is a genuine person, and with my guidance, his future achievements will surely be considerable!"

"Little Yanzi, this is your chance!"

Yao Chen stroked his beard, his face radiating confidence. Seeing this, Xiao Yan's eyes lit up with anticipation. Whenever his master wore that sly expression, it meant he was confident of success, and the person he was plotting against was about to suffer!

"However," Xiao Yan secretly glanced at his master's back, "it seems like Master always comes out on the losing end whenever he encounters Senior Brother Lin Feng!"

If Lin Feng were here and knew what Xiao Yan was thinking, he would definitely burst out laughing, slap Xiao Yan's shoulder hard, and shout.

"Junior Brother Xiao Yan, you are truly my dearest friend!"

"Little Yanzi," Yao Chen suddenly turned around, no longer hesitating, his expression cold, "With such a powerful force at Canaan Academy, and with Lin Feng and Queen Medusa, a super combatant, we can ambush Han Feng!"

"Master, what do you mean?"

"That beast Han Feng has also cultivated the Burning Technique, although it's only an incomplete version, but he still has the ability to refine multiple different flames! If he finds out that Canaan Academy has different flames, he will definitely bring people to snatch them. At that time, we can join forces with Canaan Academy to take him down."

As Yao Chen spoke, a surge of fervor welled up within him. "At that time, not only will you obtain a different kind of flame, but there will also be hope for my resurrection!"

Xiao Yan, upon hearing the plan, also felt it was highly feasible. So the two foxes, one big and one small, began to refine the plan. The two chattered away, occasionally letting out sinister cackling laughs, looking every bit like villains.

After a long while, the two finally came to their senses and realized that their master and disciple seemed to have some shifty eyes. So Yao Chen quickly coughed and disappeared.

"Little Yanzi, you must quickly break through to the four-star Dou Ling level during this time. Only then can you gain more benefits in the upcoming great battle!"

Han Feng, in Maple City, having acquired the Inner Sea Flame and plotting his next move, came to find Lin Feng to make a deal.
