"But I want to tell you that I only came to you to find out some information. You ended up like this entirely because of your own fault."

"you?!"

Hua Xiong Yan's eyes widened immediately, but before he could say anything, Xu Zi Huang's lips curled into a slight smile, and he crushed Hua Xiong Yan's head without changing his expression.

The lord of Dragon Wolf Territory, a titled Douluo, perished in this desolate land, filled with regret and despair.

Hua Xiong Yan's body melted away under the erosion of the destructive flames. Only two strange, jet-black bones remained, seemingly engraved with patterns resembling dragon scales, floating in the air, supported by dense soul power.

These are the inherited soul bones of the Hua family in the Dragon Wolf Territory, and they are two identical soul bones taken from the left and right arms of the same ten-thousand-year-old soul beast.

These arm spirit bones are relatively complete and of high quality, containing a violent and powerful quality. Without a doubt, these are two power-type spirit bones.

Not far away, Feng Tianyao stared at the two soul bones, a hint of interest clearly showing in his eyes.

Although the Star Sea Continent has a long history, it took a considerable amount of time for it to gain the upper hand in its struggle against soul beasts. The scarcity of top-tier powerhouses and soul beast resources further contributes to the rarity of soul bones.

These two ten-thousand-year-old soul bones were not even worth Xu Zihuang's attention, but for Feng Tianyao, they were the kind of treasures that could only be encountered by chance.

If it weren't for Xu Zihuang's strength, he probably would have taken both soul bones for himself.

Feng Tianyao opened and closed his eyes, quickly calming his emotions, and smiled as he gently stroked his palm.

"Indeed, heroes have emerged from among the young since ancient times. Hua Xiong Yan died at your hands, young friend; it was his own doing. I wonder if you have ever heard of a type of earth dragon soul beast called Tyrannosaurus Rex? The two soul bones left behind by Hua Xiong Yan were taken from a ten-thousand-year-old Tyrannosaurus Rex, and I believe they should be of some help to you."

"The Tyrannosaurus Rex, the king of earth dragons?" Xu Zihuang looked at Feng Tianyao and replied thoughtfully.

Tyrannosaurus Rex are also incredibly powerful beings in the Soul Beast Forest of Douluo Continent. At the same cultivation level, they can rival true dragons. They possess the bloodline of the Golden Dragon King, though not pure, it is nonetheless consistent.

Feng Tianyao was also taken aback, not expecting Xu Zihuang to be so knowledgeable, actually knowing information about the Tyrannosaurus Rex, a soul beast. After all, on their Star Sea Continent, the Tyrannosaurus Rex was already on the verge of extinction tens of thousands of years ago.

Even those who know that such a spirit beast once existed are few and far between.

"exactly."

But he quickly came to his senses, nodded, and sincerely extended an invitation to Xu Zihuang.

"Young friend just mentioned that you wanted to ask me for some information. Why don't you come with me to Qingfeng Territory so I can show you some hospitality? Whatever you want to ask, I will answer it to the best of my ability."

Xu Zihuang put away the pair of ten-thousand-year-old Tyrannosaurus Rex left and right arm soul bones, and also showed a gentle smile, readily agreeing.

"Since Lord Wind has extended such a warm invitation, I naturally cannot refuse."

Standing atop a distant mountain peak, witnessing everything from beginning to end, Wang Qiu'er looked at Xu Zihuang and Feng Tianyao chatting and laughing, and inwardly snorted with disdain.

"Humans are indeed the most hypocritical race."

Wang Qiu'er, on the other hand, saw things very clearly.

Xu Zihuang achieved his goal and, possessing the strength and confidence to withstand any schemes, naturally had no need to expose Feng Tianyao. Feng Tianyao, on the other hand, reaped enormous benefits. With Hua Xiongyan dead, the annexation of the entire Dragon Wolf Territory became a viable option. Furthermore, forging an alliance with Xu Zihuang was a win-win situation.

Only Hua Xiong Yan and Long Lang Ling became victims.

Chapter 427 True Dragon Soul Bone Inheritance and Nemesis

Xu Zihuang naturally saw that the seemingly righteous Feng Tianyao had ulterior motives, but he didn't care about that.

He just wanted to know about Dragon Valley; everything else was irrelevant to him.

Xu Zihuang ignored Hua Ancheng, who remained unconscious. How could a dragon soaring in the sky possibly notice an ant beneath its feet? If Hua Ancheng had the power, he could come seeking revenge. He would simply accept the consequences.

On the other hand, despite Feng Tianyao's seemingly calm and collected demeanor, chatting and laughing with Xu Zihuang, he was actually extremely wary of, and even fearful of, Xu Zihuang.

He had basically not intervened in the previous battle between Xu Zihuang and Hua Xiongyan. Xu Zihuang had single-handedly wiped out almost all of the elite forces of the Dragon Wolf Territory, and even killed Hua Xiongyan, a titled Douluo-level expert who had been famous for many years, in several battles.

Feng Tianyao knew that Xu Zihuang could kill him at any time if he wanted to. Therefore, he understood his position very well.

Even if Xu Zihuang were to ask his daughter to serve him tonight, he would only greet him with a grateful smile.

Rather, if Xu Zihuang really made such a request, it would be an immense favor to the Qingfeng Lingfeng family.

Feng Tianyao had actually considered this as well, but Wang Qiu'er's presence made him temporarily abandon the idea.

Although Wang Qiu'er was cold towards Xu Zihuang, the unusual emotions that occasionally flashed in her eyes revealed that the relationship between the two was definitely not ordinary.

Led by Feng Tianyao, Xu Zihuang and Wang Qiu'er each used their own methods to fly towards Qingfeng Territory in the north.

With the presence of a spiritual attribute soul core between his eyebrows and a profound foundation of soul power, simply using flight would hardly consume any of Xu Zihuang's soul power.

Wang Qiu'er, as before, traveled by stepping on golden flames.

Before she took human form, the Three-Eyed Golden Lion usually traveled in this way. As an imperial auspicious beast born of heaven and earth, she was of noble status and was born to be superior to countless soul beasts. In her true form, she never came into contact with the ground.

Each time Wang Qiu'er leaped onto the golden flames, her figure floated forward with an indescribable ease and grace. In terms of speed, she was no less than Xu Zihuang and Feng Tianyao, who were flying through the air.

The more Xu Zihuang and Wang Qiu'er demonstrated their abilities, the more unfathomable Feng Tianyao felt they were.

During his journey, he did not forget to frankly inquire about the origins of Xu Zihuang and Wang Qiu'er.

After observing Xu Zihuang for some time, he had gained a certain understanding of Xu Zihuang's personality. He realized that being evasive and indirect would only be annoying, so it was better to be frank and open.

"Young friend Xu, are you really from other seas, as Hua Xiong Yan said?"

“We come from Douluo Continent,” Xu Zihuang replied calmly.

Feng Tianyao raised an eyebrow in surprise.

"Douluo Continent? Could it be that there are other continents as vast as our Star Sea Continent in other seas?"

Wang Qiu'er gave a disdainful snort.

"Our Douluo Continent is much larger than your Star Sea Continent."

Whether it's the ancient Soul Master sects that originally belonged to the Douluo Continent, or the intelligent high-level Soul Beasts in the Star Dou Great Forest, they all have a very strong sense of belonging to the Douluo Continent.

Di Tian had once told Wang Qiu'er about the comparison of the two continents' areas. The area that originally belonged to Douluo Continent was almost more than twice the size of Xinghai Continent.

Feng Tianyao was slightly taken aback, then sighed softly, "I was ignorant."

Xu Zihuang glanced sideways at Wang Qiu'er beside him. Sensing Xu Zihuang's chilling gaze, Wang Qiu'er turned her head away coldly, as if she were sulking.

Little did she know that this reaction was precisely a sign that she was beginning to be manipulated by Xu Zihuang. She would never have shown such an arrogant side to anyone else.

Feng Tianyao smiled slightly.

"Seeing Mr. Xu and Ms. Wang always reminds me of my own youth. Back then, my wife and I often had disagreements like you two, but in the end we still got together and had Lingwei."

Xu Zihuang smiled without saying a word, his heart unmoved. Throughout his childhood, he had never lacked beautiful aristocratic ladies.

Back then, he was the only son of the most powerful prince in the Sun Moon Empire. During his childhood, many powerful families tried to send little girls of the same age to his side. He actually felt disgusted by such things.

Xu Zihuang admitted that Wang Qiu'er and Tang Wutong were stunningly beautiful, but not enough to make him have those kinds of thoughts just because of their appearance.

What touched him most about Ning Tian was his unwavering companionship over the years, which had been with him for most of his adolescence.

Wang Qiu'er, standing to the side, visibly trembled upon hearing Feng Tianyao's words, her delicate earlobes turning slightly red. However, because she had turned her head to the side, her facial expression was not visible.

Seeing this, Feng Tianyao understood and changed the subject, beginning to give a detailed account of the situation on the Star Sea Continent.

Nine powerful Soul Master families rule the Star Sea Continent, dividing it into nine territories of varying sizes. To draw an analogy, this is similar to the seven major sects that originally belonged to the Douluo Continent ten thousand years ago, each ruling their own territory.

There are four major Soul Master families in the Northern Alliance, while the Southern Alliance, including the Feng family of Qingfeng and the Hua family of Longlang, has a total of five major Soul Master families.

However, in both the North and South Alliances, only three major Soul Master families possess a Title Douluo-level expert. In other words, there are only six Title Douluos in the entire Star Sea Continent.

Xu Zihuang's statement that he could sweep across the entire continent is not an exaggeration at all.

Previously, the most powerful family in the Southern Alliance was undoubtedly the Hua family of Dragon Wolf Territory, but since Hua Xiong Yan's death, it was practically inevitable that the Feng family of Azure Phoenix Territory would take its place. This is the main reason why Feng Tian Yao is so delighted.

With Hua Xiongyan and the elite forces of the Dragon Wolf Territory wiped out, the Azure Phoenix Territory could not only seize the opportunity to annex the Dragon Wolf Territory and strengthen itself, but could even become the leader of the Southern Alliance.

It is worth mentioning that the most powerful family in the Northern Alliance is the Su family of Tianhu Territory.

The Star Sea Continent is less than half the size of the original Douluo Continent. If you divide it into smaller parts, each large territory on the Star Sea Continent is roughly the same size as a province of the three major empires on the original Douluo Continent.

The Star Sea Continent appears far more primitive than the Douluo Continent. Along the way, forests, lakes, and mountains come into view. The air is so clear that one can see far into the distance. Occasionally, one passes through cities, but it's clear that their scale is far smaller than that of the Douluo Continent.

However, almost every city on the Star Sea Continent is built with sturdy and thick walls. This is to adapt to the conflicting situation on the Star Sea Continent. After all, the territories controlled by the major Soul Master families often clashed due to interests. Small-scale conflicts and wars were common occurrences.

Before nightfall, Feng Tianyao finally led Xu Zihuang and Wang Qiu'er into Qingfeng City, where the Feng family of Qingfeng Territory was located.

It truly lives up to its reputation as the most prosperous city in Qingfeng Territory; its scale is almost comparable to the main city on Douluo Continent. Conservative estimates suggest that the city's population exceeds three million.

The layout of the city's buildings reveals the strict social hierarchy of the Starsea Continent. The houses in the outer areas of Qingfeng City are mostly low, with few exceeding twenty meters in height. This is where commoners live.

The small area near the inner city is mostly inhabited by warriors who can draw upon the power of their bloodline.

The city center is built against a towering mountain, surrounded by a wall with soldiers strictly guarding the entrance. This place is known as the Highlands, and only Soul Masters are qualified to live here.

At the very heart of the highlands stood a majestic castle, the home of the Qingfeng clan. Squads of well-equipped soldiers patrolled the walls. These soldiers were few in number, but all were formidable warriors of Qi and Blood. Furthermore, a considerable number of Soul Masters stood guard from watchtowers and other locations.

Just as Xu Zihuang and his two companions approached, a squad of Soul Masters composed entirely of flying-type Soul Masters surrounded them from all directions.

Upon seeing that the visitor was Feng Tianyao, the leading Soul Master squad leader immediately led his subordinates to bow respectfully.

"Lord!"

"Young friend Xu and Miss Wang are honored guests of our Qingfeng Territory. Give the order to prepare a banquet to welcome these two distinguished guests." Feng Tianyao was no longer the humble person he had been when facing Xu Zihuang and Wang Qiu'er. He issued orders to these people with an extraordinary air.

"Young friend Xu, Miss Wang, this way please."

After giving his instructions, Feng Tianyao, with a smile on his face, personally led Xu Zihuang and Wang Qiu'er towards the depths of the castle.

Gazing in awe as the three figures disappeared from sight, the members of the Soul Master team belatedly realized that Xu Zihuang and Wang Qiu'er were also flying through the air. Their expressions changed drastically, and they exclaimed in disbelief.

"Flying through the air, a Soul Saint?!"

Due to its unique geographical location, the Star Sea Continent maintains a constant temperature range throughout the year, making it pleasant in all four seasons.

In the spacious and elegant open-air courtyard, various rare flowers unique to this part of the Star Sea Continent bloom in profusion, exuding a refreshing fragrance. Wisps of serene moonlight pour down from the night sky, adding to the tranquility and beauty.

Moreover, the view here is excellent; looking up, you can overlook the entire night view of Qingfeng City.

In the center of the courtyard, Xu Zihuang, Wang Qiu'er, and Feng Tianyao sat facing each other at a stone table, while Feng Tianyao's only daughter, Feng Lingwei, served them to the side.

Feng Lingwei seemed to know something in advance. All the arrogance and haughtiness in her beautiful eyes disappeared without a trace. She was lowering her head to pour a cup of fragrant tea for Xu Zihuang and Wang Qiu'er, and her gaze often lingered on Xu Zihuang.

Xu Zihuang didn't touch the teacup on the table. Looking at Feng Tianyao opposite him, he said calmly, "Lord Feng, I think there's no need for a banquet. Let me get straight to the point. My trip to the Star Sea Continent is to find a secret realm within a spatial rift. This spatial realm is related to the Dragon Clan. I wonder if Lord Feng knows anything about its secrets?"

Feng Tianyao's gaze suddenly sharpened, and he couldn't help but recall some things passed down from his ancestors.

After a moment of contemplation, he waved his right hand, signaling Feng Lingwei to step back.

Feng Tianyao had his daughter personally serve Xu Zihuang and Wang Qiu'er, still harboring those kinds of thoughts. But given the current situation, it was clearly unsuitable for his daughter to continue staying here.

Feng Lingwei dared not disobey her father's decision and obediently walked out of the courtyard.
