"You bastard, don't go too far!"
Xiao Yi Xian's goodwill towards them had already plummeted after Yao Lao got ideas with her Heavenly Flame, and now, when she saw that he still dared to pressure Xiao Ming with his soul power, she immediately stood up furiously, and her Dou Ancestor aura began to burst out frantically, pressing towards Yao Lao as well as Xiao Yan.
Facing Xiao Yi Xian's pressure, Yao Lao was fine, although his soul power was by no means at its peak, the quality of his soul was very good. However, Xiao Yan was having a hard time, the aura of a Dou Ancestor was not something that he, a little Dou Master, could resist.
He felt as if a mountain was bearing down on him, causing his knees to buckle and he fell to his knees.
Fortunately, Yao Lao noticed in time and shielded him from Xiao Yi Xian's aura, so he was no longer struggling as much.
Feeling the slight pain in his knees, Xiao Yan's face turned ugly.
'Is this demented woman that protective!?'
Xiao Yi Xian's aura also alerted the other people in Xiao Ming's residence, and as the maids and guards arrived outside the hall, they were unable to move due to her aura.
Only Venerable Tian Huo was unaffected and floated in through one of the windows.
"Xiao Xian'er, why are you so angry? Are there any visitors with malicious intentions?"
Finishing his words, he saw Yao Lao who was facing Xiao Yi Xian.
Instantly, Venerable Tian Huo's soul power surged out and rushed towards Yao Lao as he said.
"This person is also the soul body of a Dou Venerate powerhouse! He is not easy to deal with, let's attack him together!"
Yao Tian Huo's face was slightly excited, just when he was worried that he had nothing to pay Xiao Ming with, this soul body arrived at the door, although he could tell that Yao Lao's soul body was extraordinary, the soul quality alone being a little higher than his, but being in Xiao Ming's Mansion, he was not afraid at all.
When a soul body suddenly appeared, ready to attack him, Yao Lao felt quite perplexed.
He admitted that upon hearing the name of his rebellious disciple Han Feng, he had been a little upset and had spoken a little loudly.
But it was too unreasonable for him to be attacked at the drop of a hat, wasn't it?
'What should we do, do we really have to fight?'
At this moment, Yao Lao was in a dilemma. If they had to fight, he feared that he would not be able to defeat their opponents in his current state.
"Senior Yao, please wait."
Just then, Xiao Ming spoke up and gestured for Yao Tianhuo to stop, preventing Yao Lao from getting beaten up.
Upon hearing Xiao Ming's voice, Yao Tianhuo had no choice but to float over to Xiao Ming's side.
"Xian'er, take a seat."
"But Xiao Ming! He dared to..."
"Xian'er, listen to me."
"... Fine." Xiao Yi Xian reluctantly agreed and sat down; a look of dissatisfaction still etched on her face.
After calming the two down, Xiao Ming turned to face Yao Lao and spoke in a slow, measured tone.
"Venerable Yao Che, it would be best if you exercised a little more self-control in your temper. It is not a good practice to intimidate others with your soul power, especially when the person in question is a Dou Ancestor. After all, you are no longer the same Venerable Yao Chen as before, are you?"
Yao Lao was silent for a moment and did not comment on the matter, instead, he asked indifferently.
".... Tell me, what is your purpose in mentioning that rebellious disciple Han Feng, and how did you learn of my affairs with him?"
"Of course, I learned all this from Han Feng himself," replied Xiao Ming, as he shook the bottle in his hand. "After being killed by me, his soul is contained in this bottle. If Your Excellency would give me the method to refine a body, the high-level alchemy inheritance, and the soul technique, I would be willing to give this bottle to you."
"I believe you also wish to 'educate' him for being a traitor who murdered his own Master, right?"
Hearing Xiao Ming's words, everyone had different reactions.
A touch of excitement appeared in Yao Tian Huo's eyes, this was because, in his opinion, Xiao Ming had always been thinking of resurrecting him, and his goodwill towards Xiao Ming was increasing.
Xiao Yan, on the other hand, was at a loss as he could not even understand the conditions that Xiao Ming was talking about, this was because he did not have a sufficient level of strength, so Yao Lao had not mentioned these things to him.
Yao Lao, on the other hand, almost couldn't control himself again, thinking about that rebellious disciple of his was right in front of him, he had the urge to snatch the jade bottle from Xiao Ming's hand.
However, when he thought about how much the situation had escalated a moment ago, Yao Lao could only force himself to calm down.
Looking at the jade bottle, he slowly said.
"In this old man's collection, there is indeed a method to refine a body and a soul technique, but among them, the method to refine a body is extremely complicated, the various materials and heavenly treasures are rare to the extreme, and most importantly, it requires the cooperation of various kinds of Heavenly Flames."
"If you can help Xiao Yan grow, this old man can take the initiative and help you refine a body for this soul body by your side, and I can also give you the soul technique. Xiao Yan's growth won't do any harm to your Xiao Clan, how about it?"
Apparently, Yao Lao had not given up on the Heavenly Flame.
But it was no wonder, after all, it was related to his resurrection, so how could he give up so easily?
If Yao Lao didn't want to give it up, Xiao Ming wouldn't give in either. It was impossible for him to act as a babysitter, instead, he felt that Yao Lao needed a little more stimulation.
With a flick of his mind, the wisp of Fallen Heart Flame surrounding the mouth of the jade bottle dissipated and disappeared, and immediately, Han Feng's voice emerged from the bottle.
"Xiao Ming! You already have everything I possess, why don't you release me!?"
"If you let me go, I promise not to be your enemy. What do you say?"
As Han Feng spoke, his soul body gradually floated out of the jade bottle.
Upon seeing Han Feng, the composure that Yao Lao had managed to maintain was completely shattered and he was overtaken by anger.
"TRAITOR!"
Upon hearing the voice, Han Feng's body stiffened and he turned his head in fright to look at Yao Lao, whose expression was filled with anger and hatred. Han Feng, with a panicked expression, let out a scream filled with horror, "You... you're not dead! How is this possible!?"
Yao Lao was reminded of the moment of his death and his illusory soul body shook violently. His face was a mix of sadness and anger, and his voice was filled with contempt. "I'm not dead... is that what you're afraid of!?"
If one were to say that Yao Lao's greatest obsession right now was to revive; the other would be the betrayal of his disciple, Han Feng.
His first disciple, whom he rescued from the ruins when he was just a baby, and raised with great care. Taught him the way of alchemy and helped him blossom into the brightest star in Central Plains. However, how did Han Feng repay him? By betraying him by joining forces with the Hall of Souls and poisoning him, nearly causing his death and causing him to barely escape with his soul body.
Han Feng's eyes narrowed as he gazed intently at Yao Lao, the expression of panic that was starting to form on his face began to subside. The news that Yao Lao was not dead came as a shock to him, like a bolt of lightning in a clear sky.
As a former disciple of Yao Lao, he knew very well the kind of prestige Yao Lao held on the continent. Even today, the powerful individuals on the continent still remembered "Venerable Yao Chen" who once reigned supreme. If news got out that Yao Lao was alive, how many powerhouses would come to seek him out?
