Chapter 176 Arrangement and Departure

In the Cuihuan Mountains of the Mulan Empire, in a simple martial arts training ground surrounded by rocks.

Above the martial arts arena, with a series of "bang! bang!" sounds of air exploding, two figures started the final fight, the simplest and most extreme conflict of power.

"Zi Yan Overlord Fist, broken!!!"

With a delicate cry, Zi Yan's eyes glowed purple. A rich purple energy surged out of her body, covering her entire body and transforming into a vague dragon shape. Zi Yan's fist power suddenly increased, breaking the balance in an instant.

"Bam—"

With a dull thud, the bald leader of the snake people flew backwards and was smashed straight onto the mountain wall not far away, leaving a human-shaped mark on the mountain wall.

Zi Yan looked at the direction her opponent fell, and she bumped her left fist with her right fist twice, making two "lang! lang!" sounds of metal hitting stone, and a smug smile appeared on her delicate little face.

"Hey, big bald guy, I won this time, right? Are you convinced?"

As she spoke, she glanced around.

The snake people watching the battle nearby all nodded when they saw her looking over, and smiled kindly at her, their eyes full of curiosity and awe.

"You win! I am convinced!" The commander-in-chief felt that he was a little weak, so he admitted defeat decisively.

When Zi Yan heard this, she narrowed her eyes slightly and grinned with a satisfied smile.

“Hehe, I finally won before leaving. This way, I can get the reward I agreed with Lin Yuan smoothly…”
-
On the other side, in the Cuihuan Mountains, there is a valley with extremely abundant energy.

"Young Master, I want to go to the Izumo Empire with you. I also want to help Sister Xiao Yixian!" Qing Lin looked at Lin Yuan expectantly and said crisply.

"No!" Lin Yuan rarely rejected Qing Lin's request.

"But..." Qinglin still wanted to correct something.

"Qing'er, do you remember what I warned you about?" Lin Yuan interrupted Qing Lin seriously, stared at her closely, and said in a deep voice: "Unless it is an absolute emergency, you must put improving your cultivation first!"

"You are in a state where you may enter a breakthrough state at any time. You must not make any mistakes!"

At this moment, Qing Lin's aura was becoming more and more unstable, sometimes strong and sometimes weak, and there was even a feeling that the fighting spirit in his body was overflowing.

Lin Yuan, who had similar experiences, understood that this was a state where he could become an emperor at any time.

Looking at Lin Yuan's concerned and caring eyes, Qing Lin was silent for a while, then nodded slowly, "I understand, sir."

Looking at Qing Lin who looked a little lost, Lin Yuan touched her little head and said softly: "I know you miss your Little Medical Fairy sister very much, but if you rush around to help her in your current state, she will not feel good either."

"Well," Qinglin nodded weakly, "Qing'er is being willful this time. Qing'er will calm down and break the mirror here. But..."

Qing Lin took out two exquisite boxes from the ring, handed them to Lin Yuan, and said softly: "Young Master, please do me a favor and bring them to Sister Xiao Yixian. This is the gift I prepared for her!"

Lin Yuan took the box, nodded, and said, "Don't worry, I will bring it to you."

After thinking for a while, Lin Yuan suggested: "Although you can't go directly this time, you might as well use the image stone to leave an image, and I will help you take it over."

"Yes, there is also this trick. Sir, wait for me..."

Not long after, Qing Lin looked at the photo stone in his hand, recalled the image just now, nodded, and said to himself: "This is fine, there shouldn't be any problem!"

After saying that, she flew to Lin Yuan and handed the photo stone to him.

Lin Yuan took the image stone and put it into his ring. Then he flipped his hand and a jade bottle containing a green pill appeared in his hand.

"The gap between Dou Wang and Dou Huang is huge. Generally speaking, it takes half a year to a year to completely complete the transformation. Next, you need to go into seclusion. This is the Zhihuang Pill, which can help you!"

"Remember, don't be impatient for this breakthrough. Be modest and cautious, and complete the breakthrough step by step!"

While giving instructions, Lin Yuan handed the Supreme Emperor Pill to Qing Lin.

Qing Lin nodded, took the Zhihuang Pill, looked at Lin Yuan deeply, a strange look flashed in his eyes, "I understand, Master, I will go into seclusion..."

"Ok!"

"Young Master, before I go into seclusion, I have something to tell you..." Qing Lin said solemnly.

"Oh?" Lin Yuan looked at Qing Lin who was approaching and said softly, "Why are you so serious..."

Lin Yuan's words were interrupted by Qing Lin's action.

Qing Lin slapped him on the face with lightning speed, then immediately withdrew, and without looking back, he flew towards the next retreat cave in the valley with a "whoosh".

After a moment, a strange look appeared on Lin Yuan's face. He touched the wet marks on his face with his fingers and looked at the flying Qing Lin.

With his precise eyesight, Lin Yuan easily caught sight of the blush on the back of her ears.

After Qing Lin's figure disappeared at the entrance of the cave, Lin Yuan smiled faintly and sighed: "This girl has reached this age, and she is much braver than before, but to be able to do this...it must be the Queen's instigation!"

Immediately, Lin Yuan flew lightly towards a place deep in the valley, where bursts of colorful light were emanating.

In the simple cave, Qing Lin tightly grasped the jade bottle in his hand, his moist eyes now showing a little more excitement, "Hehe, I did it, I have taken another step forward, Sister Xiao Yixian, Sister Queen..."

After a long time, she finally calmed down her excited and confused mood and sat cross-legged on the bluestone in the cave...
-
As soon as Lin Yuan landed on the ground, a crisp, teasing voice came from the side of the colorful light cocoon, "Have you said goodbye to Xiao Qinglin? How do you feel about the young girl's youthful feelings?"

Medusa was seen standing next to the colorful light cocoon with her arms folded, looking at him with amusement.

"Xiyue, it was you who instigated it!" Lin Yuan looked at Medusa helplessly, then raised his eyebrows, smiled calmly, and said: "But it feels good, Qing'er has reached this age, thank you..."

Haha! This kind of verbal offensive is no longer useful!
After this period of reflection, Lin Yuan recognized himself and evolved! He was no longer confused about his romantic affairs and no longer showed an embarrassed expression!
"Tsk—" Seeing that Lin Yuan did not show what she wanted to see, Medusa secretly clicked her lips and got down to business.

"Little man, is the pill you gave Xiao Cai really useful? You should know that the Seven-Colored Sky-Swallowing Python is a top-level magical beast bloodline." Queen Medusa turned her gaze to the colorful light cocoon beside her.

This cocoon is Xiao Cai's cocoon of evolution.

After Xiao Cai took a pill made by Lin Yuan yesterday, she entered the state of evolution. Lin Yuan walked to the colorful light cocoon and patted it. Xiao Cai in the light cocoon seemed to feel Lin Yuan, emitting a very soft light, conveying a strong sense of closeness.

He stroked the light cocoon, smiled gently, and said, "Don't worry, I have studied the recipe of the Beast King Blood Tempering Pill. Even if this pill cannot help Xiao Cai further improve her bloodline, it will definitely not cause any harm."

"It doesn't matter even if I can't help Xiao Cai improve her bloodline in the end. It's just a sixth-grade pill. Our daughter can afford to waste it!"

As he spoke, Lin Yuan radiated a powerful soul force from between his brows, scanning and inspecting the light cocoon.

Beast King Blood Tempering Pill, a top-level sixth-grade pill, can temper and purify the powerful blood of magical beasts. It is one of the sixth-grade pill recipes that Lin Yuan exchanged from Yao Lao.

The medicinal materials for this pill are very rare. Even with Lin Yuan's huge collection, he could only gather one batch of medicinal materials.

However, it is easy to determine who will take it.

This Beast King Blood-Quenching Pill is useless for Zi Yan because her bloodline is too strong; this pill is of limited use for Medusa because her strength is too high.

But for Xiao Cai, this pill is just right. After all, even in the same group, the talents and bloodlines of individuals are different. Recently, Xiao Cai is in the process of upgrading, which is also the best time to take this pill.

After a while, after Lin Yuan finished the inspection, he retracted his soul power and a relieved smile appeared on his face.

"Xiao Cai is in very good condition and is evolving smoothly. All that is left is for the time being."

As soon as Lin Yuan finished speaking, the energy of heaven and earth in the entire valley suddenly surged. A huge amount of energy rushed towards Qinglin's cave and turned into a huge energy vortex.

Qinglin’s breakthrough has begun!

The high-level earth-level technique, Cang Qiong Xuan Dian, also began to display its full power at this moment, and the energy outside the valley was also forcibly snatched away.

"Queen!" Lin Yuan looked at Queen Medusa.

Medusa nodded, and rose into the air in tacit understanding. As her hand seals changed, she used space blockades to condense multiple complete space barriers, hiding all the huge movements in the valley.

In the valley, Lin Yuan looked at the colorful energy vortex in the air and caught the Medusa that fell from the sky.

"With these layers of space barriers, even if someone or a demon beast flies over the valley, as long as their strength is not greater than mine, it will be difficult for them to find any clues in the valley. Even if they find it, it will be difficult to break it without the strength of a Dou Zong."

"In addition, the area around this valley will be designated as a forbidden area by the king."

As she spoke, Medusa, lying horizontally in Lin Yuan's arms, wiped the sweat from her smooth forehead with her slender hands and talked about her plans.

Even for her, setting up a barrier of this level would require a lot of energy.

"Thank you for your hard work, Xiyue!"

"Excessive words!" Medusa glanced at Lin Yuan and asked, "When are you going to leave?"

"We are scheduled to depart tomorrow." Lin Yuan pondered.

"Tomorrow... huh? Time is precious." Medusa murmured, and then her charming face became lazy, and her fingers brushed across Lin Yuan's cheek, "It seems that we will see each other again in a while! Little man, take me back to the palace and say goodbye properly!"

"As you command, my queen..."

Immediately, a figure holding another charming figure left the valley and walked towards Queen Medusa's palace.
-
The next morning, three figures flashed over from a peak outside the Cuihuan Mountains.

Lin Yuan looked at the valley where Qinglin and Xiaocai were in seclusion for a moment, then turned his gaze to Medusa and said in a deep voice: "Xiaocai and Qing'er, I'll leave them in your care. If I still haven't returned after they advance, you can send them directly back to Canaan Academy!"

"Don't worry, I'm here to help you with these things." Medusa nodded slightly.

Lin Yuan nodded slightly, a gentle smile appeared on the corner of his mouth. He slowly took a step forward, stretched out his arms, and gently embraced Queen Medusa in his arms.

Medusa froze slightly, glanced at Zi Yan quickly, but did not struggle to avoid it.

"Xiyue, you should settle things here during this period. After the tribe is stable, you may as well follow me to the mainland and Zhongzhou. If the four elders can cultivate the Three Beasts Savage Art, they will be able to guard this place."

After a pause, Lin Yuan continued: "Also, you can also go to the Black Horn Region and Canaan College. It's an interesting place..."

"I will go after I have stabilized my tribe!" Medusa said in a low voice with her eyelids drooped.

Then, she pointed at the colorful mark on Lin Yuan's chest with her jade finger and said seriously, "You are too brave. Be careful when you are outside and take good care of Zi Yan. If you encounter any difficult troubles, inform me in time with the colorful mark. No matter where you are, I will rush over immediately."

"You too." Lin Yuan also tapped the Azure Lotus Mark that he had placed on Medusa. "When you run into trouble, activate this Azure Lotus Mark and I will come quickly."

After saying this, he let go of the beauty in his arms, took out an exquisite ring from his arms and handed it to her.

"I left some things for you in this storage ring, including skills, fighting techniques, and elixirs. Especially the fighting technique that can be used as a trump card, you can study it carefully. Some of my insights on cultivation are also attached." Lin Yuan explained.

"Yeah!" Medusa nodded.

Zi Yan, who was standing by, threw the pill in her hand into her mouth, chewed it, and looked at the two of them with boredom. She felt a little speechless, it was just a separation for a while, but it was treated like a life-and-death separation.

At this moment, she had completely forgotten the feelings she had when she and Lin Yuan parted.

As if sensing Zi Yan's gaze, Lin Yuan whispered goodbye to Medusa again: "I'm leaving, take care!"

Then he slowly stepped back, his shoulders trembled, and blue flaming wings extended out and rose into the sky. After taking a deep look at Medusa, he flapped his wings and flew towards the distant Izumo Empire.

Zi Yan ran to Medusa and shook her little fist, "Sister Xiyue, don't worry, I will protect Lin Yuan. Take care of yourself, I will bring you a gift next time I come back."

Medusa stroked her little head and said seriously, "Forget about the gifts. You must listen to your brother when you go out this time. Don't be naughty and don't touch things you shouldn't touch. Most of the people from the Izumo Empire carry poison on them. Even if they are not strong, they are very dangerous."

"Yeah!" Zi Yan nodded his little head obediently, then jumped up into the air with her petite body, "Goodbye, Sister Xiyue, I'm leaving now!"

After saying that, she waved her hand at Medusa, turned around and chased after Lin Yuan in front of her.

After Medusa watched the two of them leave her sight, she immersed her mind in the storage ring that Lin Yuan gave her and began to look through the things Lin Yuan left for her.

Soon, a pitch-black ancient scroll attracted her attention. "Well, this is the Three Lights Seal..."
