Chapter 123 Returning to Wutan City, Xiao Zhan's Shock! [Please Read On]

After leaving Canaan Academy, Xiao Lei used his spatial teleportation ability and returned to Wutan City in less than half a day.

However, Xiao Lei arrived in a desolate place outside Wutan City.

Afterwards, Xiao Lei walked back into Wutan City.

Walking on the familiar city streets, Xiao Lei felt a sense of warmth and familiarity.

After all, he had lived in this city for more than a decade.

"Young Master Xiao Lei, is it really you?"

Xiao Lei was casually strolling through the familiar streets of Wutan City when an unexpected voice suddenly reached his ears.

Xiao Lei looked in the direction of the sound and saw a burly middle-aged man not far from him.

Beside him was a middle-aged woman; judging from their appearance, they were probably a couple.

"Uncle Payne," Xiao Lei recognized the middle-aged man at a glance; he was Payne, the captain of the guards at Xiao Family Market.

"Young Master Xiao Lei, it's truly an honor that you still remember Payne," Payne said with a happy smile upon seeing that Xiao Lei recognized him, then turned to the woman beside him.

"So? I really do know Young Master Xiao Lei, and I'm not just bragging while drunk, am I?"

Xiao Lei is now incredibly popular in Wutan City and is admired by many.

Many people are proud to have crossed paths with Xiao Lei, and Payne is one of them.

However, his previous statements were considered drunken boasts by everyone, including his wife.

"This humble woman greets Young Master Xiao Lei," the middle-aged woman said, bowing to Xiao Lei without responding to Payne.

"No need for formalities," Xiao Lei smiled slightly, then said to Payne, "Throughout this year, nothing much has happened in Wutan City, has anything?"

Payne nodded repeatedly and said, "No, even the Gallagher family and the Obama family were wiped out by the Xiao family, so naturally no one else would dare to show any disrespect to the Xiao family."

"Furthermore, with the Xiao family's cooperation with the Mittel Auction House, even the City Lord's Mansion treats the Xiao family with great courtesy."

"Okay, that's good. I'll head back now," Xiao Lei said with a smile and a nod.

"Young Master Xiao Lei, please take care," Payne said respectfully upon hearing this.

"Is he really Young Master Xiao Lei?" After watching Xiao Lei leave, the middle-aged woman asked Payne in a low voice.

Payne glared at the woman and said, "How could this be false? Young Master Xiao Lei is assertive to outsiders, but he has always been very kind to his own people. However, we cannot be disrespectful to Young Master Xiao Lei because of this."

Xiao Lei overheard the Payne couple's conversation, but simply smiled and didn't take it to heart, continuing on his way to the Xiao family home.

Not long after, Xiao Lei arrived at the Xiao family.

The guards at the Xiao family's main gate were excited to see Xiao Lei return, and they bowed respectfully.

Xiao Lei nodded to the guards and then stepped into the mansion.

Xiao Lei released his soul power, located Hai Bodong's position, and then went straight there.

"Young master, you're back!"

Hai Bodong was in the middle of his daily cultivation, thinking about restoring his strength as soon as possible. When he saw Xiao Lei arrive, he quickly stood up and spoke respectfully.

Xiao Lei smiled and said, "No need for formalities. Has the Xiao family had any enemies this year?"

Hai Bodong said, "No, everything is peaceful in Wutan City."

"Not bad," Xiao Lei nodded slightly and said, "You've worked hard this year. Consider this pill a reward for you."

As he spoke, Xiao Lei took out a jade bottle and threw it at Hai Bodong.

Hai Bodong quickly reached out and took the jade bottle, asking curiously, "Young Master, what kind of elixir is this?"

"The Purple Spirit Pill," Xiao Lei said calmly, "is a fifth-grade pill. Its function is to completely restore the strength that has declined due to sealing or internal injuries."

Upon hearing this, Hai Bodong's face immediately lit up with delight. "Thank you, young master!"

Hai Bodong was sealed by Queen Medusa, and Xiao Lei refined a Breaking Calamity Pill to break the seal for him.

However, due to being sealed for too long, Hai Bodong's strength only recovered to the level of a two-star Dou Huang, instead of the five-star Dou Huang he was at his peak.

Now that he has the Purple Spirit Pill, Hai Bodong can completely restore his strength as a five-star Dou Huang. How could he not be overjoyed?

"Okay, take the Rejuvenating Purple Spirit Pill later to restore your peak strength," Xiao Lei nodded and said.

"Yes," Hai Bodong replied respectfully, then hesitated slightly before adding, "By the way, young master, there's one more thing."

"What is it?" Xiao Lei asked casually.

Hai Bodong said, "Ya Fei from the Mittel Auction House has been transferred back to the capital of Gama. Before she left, she came to see me and asked me to mention her departure when you return."

"I understand," Xiao Lei nodded slightly, then turned and left.

Watching Xiao Lei leave, Hai Bodong took a deep breath, composed himself, and then put the Fu Zi Ling Dan into his mouth.

Not a single mistake, not a single poem, not a single post, not a single piece of content, not a single look!

After parting ways with Hai Bodong, Xiao Lei went to find the clan leader, Xiao Zhan.

Xiao Zhan was also very excited to see Xiao Lei return.

After exchanging a few pleasantries, Xiao Lei asked, "By the way, Clan Chief, is there any news about my cousin Xiao Yan?"

When Xiao Zhan heard Xiao Lei mention Xiao Yan, a hint of worry appeared on his face.

"Since Yan'er left Wutan City after her coming-of-age ceremony, she has never returned or sent any messages home."

"Sigh, the three-year agreement is almost up, and I'm really worried."

Xiao Lei smiled and said, "Clan leader, there's no need to worry. I met my cousin Xiao Yan a year ago. He was already a four-star Dou Ling at that time, and his strength is definitely stronger now. We will surely win the three-year agreement."

"What?! Yan'er is already a four-star Dou Ling!" Xiao Zhan was overjoyed upon hearing Xiao Lei's words.

Xiao Lei nodded and said, "The clan leader heard me right, so Nalan Yanran is definitely no match for Xiao Yan."

"If Yan'er defeats Nalan Yanran, the Yunlan Sect will lose face. I wonder if they will make things difficult for Yan'er," Xiao Zhan said with a hint of joy, then sighed as if he had thought of something.

Xiao Lei said, "I came back this time to go to the Yunlan Sect with my cousin Xiao Yan. If the people of the Yunlan Sect follow the rules, that's fine. But if they don't, I'll make them regret it."

Upon hearing this, Xiao Zhan tentatively asked, "Then, Xiao Lei, what realm are you at now?"

"One-star Dou Huang," Xiao Lei's eyes flickered slightly, still habitually concealing a major realm.

In fact, during his nearly one year at Canaan Academy, Xiao Lei accumulated wealth through numerous lottery draws, and through his own diligent cultivation, his cultivation level has broken through from a five-star Dou Huang to a one-star Dou Zong!

"Battle Emperor!"

Although Xiao Lei had underestimated the extent of his cultivation level by one major realm, Xiao Zhan was still quite shocked.

An eighteen-year-old Battle Emperor!

This is probably unprecedented in the history of the Gama Empire.

This cultivation speed is simply outrageous!

Xiao Lei smiled slightly and said, "That's right, he is indeed a Dou Huang, and he also has some special methods that allow him to fight against opponents of higher levels. He will definitely be able to protect my cousin Xiao Yan."

"Xiao Lei, I thank you on behalf of Yan'er!" Upon hearing this, Xiao Zhan bowed to Xiao Lei and said gratefully.

Xiao Lei quickly helped Xiao Zhan up and said, "I lost both my parents when I was young. If it weren't for the clan leader's care, I probably wouldn't have survived to adulthood. Besides, my cousin Xiao Yan and I are as close as brothers, so it's only right that we help each other. The clan leader doesn't need to do this."

Xiao Zhan patted Xiao Lei on the shoulder without saying anything more, but he remembered this kindness in his heart.

"Oh, right, there's something else I need to discuss with the clan leader," Xiao Lei said after a pause.

"What is it?" Xiao Zhan asked curiously.
