Fighting: I am Han Feng, I respect my teacher

Han Feng nodded solemnly, then said directly, "When my teacher and I were traveling in Zhongzhou, we unexpectedly learned about the eight ancient Dou Di families of the Dou Qi Continent."

Xiao Zhan's pupils suddenly contracted, but his expression remained unchanged.

Han Feng continued, "Through some special intelligence, we learned that you are the current patriarch of the Xiao clan, one of the eight ancient clans."

Xiao Zhan took a deep breath.

"I don't know what you're talking about..."

"I'm just a Dou Shi, and you're talking to me about Dou Di?"

Xiao Zhan looked at Han Feng with a puzzled expression, and there seemed to be a hint of self-mockery in his eyes.

Han Feng simply said, "Clan Chief Xiao, since I'm here, I naturally already have definite information."

Xiao Zhan remained silent.

"I came to the Xiao family only to tell you that the Tuoshe Ancient Emperor Jade, which is the Xiao family's heirloom jade piece, has been targeted by another group of people. If they come, it won't be as simple as just drinking tea and chatting."

Han Feng took a sip of tea and waited quietly for Xiao Zhan's reaction.

This is ultimately a matter for the Xiao family, and it's not convenient for him to interfere.

After a moment, Xiao Zhan finally sighed.

Who are those people you're talking about?

Asking this question indirectly confirms that the Xiao family is indeed the Xiao clan.

Han Feng did not hide this from him.

"The Soul Clan has been at odds with the Xiao Clan for a thousand years. Now they have established the Soul Palace, which controls the world. The Jia Ma Empire has the influence of the Soul Palace, so it will take them at most ten years to find this place."

Han Feng took another sip of tea, then suddenly thought of something and said, "If this were in the capital, it probably wouldn't even take ten years."

Upon hearing this, Xiao Zhan clenched his fist tightly, shattering the teacup and spilling scalding tea through his fingers.

"I see......"

No wonder my father was suddenly critically injured and on the verge of death, and he still wanted me to take the Xiao family away from the capital.

Looking back now, those absurd things from the past seem to be intricately connected.

"The Soul Palace is very powerful, with many Dou Ling and Dou Wang experts. With the current strength of the Xiao family, I'm afraid I can't protect the ancient jade."

Han Feng spoke frankly.

"Are you also after the ancient jade?"

Xiao Zhan was breathing rapidly and turned his head to ask.

"No, the ancient jade is useless to me. I'm just here to remind Clan Chief Xiao to make preparations as soon as possible."

Xiao Zhan nodded, his impression of Han Feng improving considerably.

However, he did not reveal his thoughts, nor did he take out the ancient jade.

It seems there were still concerns in his heart, after all, it was the inheritance of the Xiao clan and the belief in the hearts of the Xiao clan members.

As the clan leader, he couldn't possibly hand over the family heirloom so easily.

"Thank you, Mr. Han, for informing me of this matter. I will always remember your kindness."

Seeing Xiao Zhan bow solemnly, Han Feng also quickly stood up:

“Clan Chief Xiao, there’s no need for that. I… once owed the Xiao family a favor, and I’ve come to repay that debt.”

Han Feng smiled and said, "This matter is of great importance. Patriarch Xiao has considered it carefully, but there is no need to worry too much. I, Han, will always stand behind the Xiao family and will definitely lend a helping hand if there is any trouble."

Han Feng's words were extremely kind. Knowing that the Xiao family would encounter a powerful enemy in the future, he still protected them so much, which moved Xiao Zhan.

"I respect Mr. Han!"

Xiao Zhan picked up his teacup and drank it all in one gulp.

Han Feng returned the gesture by drinking a full cup of wine.

"Please stay at the Xiao residence for a few days, Mr. Han. We can have a good drink together later!"

Xiao Zhan usually has many matters to attend to, and now that he has learned of Han Feng's whereabouts, he cannot afford to relax.

Although Han Feng said he could protect the Xiao family, Xiao Zhan took it as just a polite remark.

People still have to save themselves; if they don't, even Heaven can't save them.

The Xiao family will not abandon their faith, but they will not be rigid in their beliefs either.

There's always a way to solve this.

After watching Xiao Zhan leave, Han Feng was led by servants to a top-class guest room near the clan leader's bedroom.

Unable to refuse such hospitality, Han Feng decided to stay for a few days.

Although I gained a new understanding of the Xiao clan's overall strength today, my conversation with Xiao Zhan was still quite acceptable.

This Xiao clan chief is not a rash person.

He is steady and generous, not pedantic, and apart from lacking in self-cultivation, he is quite good in every other way.

With nothing to do in the afternoon, Han Feng went out of his room for a walk.

He hadn't gone far when he saw a very young child sitting upright on an open-air stone platform in the courtyard, his hands forming a mudra, as if he were practicing meditation.

How old are they? And they've already started cultivating?

Han Feng looked at the child from a distance and realized that the child looked somewhat familiar.

Xiao Yan?

If you calculate the time, this age is about right.

A hint of amusement flickered in his eyes. He hadn't expected to see an old friend again, only to find that the other person was still a little kid.

Han Feng quietly approached and, after observing for a while, discovered that Xiao Yan was still in the stage of sensing Dou Qi and had not truly entered the cultivation stage.

However, it seems it will happen soon.

Han Feng raised his palm and placed it on Xiao Yan's head, whispering as he did so:

"The left palace gathers the breath, for the spirit is extinguished by filth;"

Looking up and down, he captured Huan; on the right, the pool flowed to Zhouyuan.

The Four-Character Foundation Building Method entered Xiao Yan's ears in a special form, without breaking his state of comprehension.

The next second, as if struck by a sudden inspiration, Xiao Yan sensed the wisps of Dou Qi in the air following the four-word mantra.

Xiao Yan quickly recalled the cultivation techniques he had memorized, changed his hand seals, and began to condense his Dou Qi.

Strands of battle qi surged toward Xiao Yan from all around, but very little of it was absorbed into his body.

Time passed little by little

Finally, buzz!

Xiao Yan felt a heat in his abdomen.

The next instant, the first wisp of Dou Qi appeared in Xiao Yan's tender dantian.

Battle Qi, Level 1!

Chapter 6 Little Girl

Xiao Yan was overjoyed. After his rebirth, he finally experienced the power of "battle qi" for the first time.

From this day forward, Xiao Yan has also embarked on the path of cultivation!

"Concentrate your breath, end the practice!"

Just then, a steady voice came, interrupting Xiao Yan's reverie.

"Oh!"

Xiao Yan quickly composed himself, changed his hand seals again, and ended his practice.

Han Feng withdrew his hand and looked at the little guy with satisfaction.

He is indeed exceptionally gifted; at the age of three or four, he already sensed the energy of battle. He has a bright future ahead of him.

After Xiao Yan finished his practice, he immediately turned to look at the person behind him.

"you......"

Xiao Yan didn't recognize this person, but remembering the kindness he had shown in imparting his knowledge earlier, he quickly jumped off the rock and bowed deeply to Han Feng.

"Junior Xiao Yan thanks Senior for your guidance!"

Han Feng smiled and said, "You're almost there anyway, I was just giving you some guidance."

"Senior, who are you?"

Xiao Yan raised his bright eyes and looked at Han Feng, asking a question.

“My surname is Han, and I am a friend of your father.”

The past is gone, now all turned to smoke and clouds.

Han Feng shook his head as he recalled Xiao Yan's tragic experiences in his previous life.

In this life, let's happily be a genius boy.

"You've just broken through to the first stage of Dou Qi, so there's no need to rush into cultivation. You can tell your father the good news first."

"Hehe, Uncle Han, I'm going to find my dad now."

Xiao Yan waved to Han Feng and ran towards the door.

Clearly, he was also unable to contain his excitement and was eager to share his joy of success with his family.

Han Feng smiled slightly. Perhaps, Xiao Yan would be the first person he changed after his rebirth.

From the fierce and resolute Yan Zun who fought to the death, he became a genius young master cherished by his family.

Han Feng felt inexplicably happy. This would be the first step in change, but it would definitely not be the last.

That evening, Xiao Zhan hosted a banquet for Han Feng, and the two drank a lot.

Because Han Feng helped Xiao Yan with his cultivation, Xiao Zhan seemed to treat him even more kindly.

The two talked about everything from family matters to world affairs. Xiao Zhan expressed high expectations for his son Xiao Yan's future, saying that he would definitely become someone he could be proud of.

After a satisfying meal, Han Feng returned to his room.

After resting for a while, the servants of the Xiao family brought hot water, and even a large tub for bathing, sprinkled with some flower petals, which smelled exceptionally fragrant.

Xiao Zhan's hospitality was very thoughtful, and Han Feng didn't refuse. He took a hot bath to relieve the smell of alcohol.

However, just as Han Feng was enjoying the nourishment from the flower petal water, a faint energy fluctuation caused him to suddenly open his eyes.

"This is......"

Han Feng seemed somewhat uncertain, but the Sea Heart Flame suddenly ignited in his pupils, expanding his mental perception several times over.

hum!

That faint energy fluctuation came again.

This time, Han Feng felt it very clearly.

"Exotic fire!"

Swish!

Han Feng quickly put on a bathrobe, and without further preparation, his figure disappeared from the spot, flying towards the direction of the strange fire fluctuations.

Buzz, buzz!

The fluctuations of the strange fire were very weak, but they were indeed revealed.

Such extraordinary things as strange fire are difficult for ordinary people to detect. They can only be discovered when they actively reveal their aura.

Could it be that the declining Xiao family is hiding a strange flame?

Han Feng looked surprised and uncertain. He arrived at the source of the strange fire fluctuations, which was a detached small house with an exceptionally beautiful surrounding environment and a garden.

The people living inside must be quite important.
