Chapter 194: Reunion with an old friend, Canaan's current situation
While Lin Yuan and Wu Tianlang were talking, a tiger roar was heard in the distance, and a giant tiger was seen galloping towards them.

"Hmm? This aura is from a sixth-level magical beast." Wu Tianlang frowned slightly and his body subconsciously tensed up.

"Elder Wu, don't be nervous, that's my flying mount." Lin Yuan waved his hand casually and chuckled.

As he spoke, two streams of light shot out from the tiger's back and landed in front of the two men a moment later.

"Lin Yuan, you broke the agreement." Zi Yan stared at Lin Yuan dimly and said sullenly, "We clearly agreed before that on the way back, we would take turns to fight, one fight each. This time it's my turn."

"Sorry, sorry, the situation was urgent just now." Lin Yuan smiled gently and comforted: "As an apology, I will make you a delicious meal when we return to the hospital."

Hearing Lin Yuan's words, Zi Yan said happily: "Then it's settled, I want to have a whole fish feast."

"Good! Good! Good!" Lin Yuan patted her little head.

At this time, Wu Tianlang stepped forward and looked at Zi Yan gently, "Little Zi Yan, you are finally back. The Great Elder will definitely be very happy when he knows about this."

As one of the top leaders of the academy, Wu Tianlang naturally knew Zi Yan.

As the darling of the great elder Su Qian, Zi Yan's status was close to that of the little princess of Canaan College. In order to let everyone take care of her when they met her, Su Qian specially brought her to all the college leaders to show her his face.

The person being scanned even includes the elusive dean, Mang Tianchi.

That’s right, Zi Yan is one of the very few people in Canaan College who has seen the Mang Tian Ruler.

"It's you." Zi Yan turned her head and pretended to be nonchalant and asked, "How is old man Su Qian now?"

Seeing this, Wu Tianlang smiled coldly, "The Great Elder is doing very well. He made a great breakthrough in his cultivation some time ago."

"Oh..." Zi Yan breathed a sigh of relief.

Wu Tianlang's eyes fell on the little medical fairy beside Lin Yuan, and hesitantly said: "Lin Yuan, this girl is..."

Although it was only a fleeting moment, he would not ignore the scene of the Little Medical Fairy flying in the air. Walking in the air was a sign of a young Dou Zong. Could this girl, who looked about the same age as Lin Yuan, be a Dou Zong? Such a young Dou Zong?
"Little Medical Fairy, my best friend." Lin Yuan said without hesitation.

Then, he looked at Xiao Yixian and introduced her, "Xiao Yixian, this is Elder Wu, the head of the Canaan College Law Enforcement Team. He was very caring towards my elder before."

"Greetings, Elder Wu." Upon hearing this, a faint smile appeared on the delicate face of the little medical fairy, and she said softly.

Glancing at the two who looked like a perfect match, Wu Tianlang nodded slightly and said warmly, "Since you are Lin Yuan's best friend, you are also a friend of Canaan College. Welcome to the college, Miss Xiao Yixian."

"Haha, let's go back to the college first and talk about other things on the way." Lin Yuan said with a smile.

Immediately, he flashed and instantly landed behind the Ghost Winged Tiger King. Zi Yan and Xiao Yixiang followed. Wu Tianlang hesitated for a moment and then reached out.

"Tsk tsk tsk, a peak sixth-order mount, what a grand display." Wu Tianlang sighed inwardly.

After Lin Yuan and others climbed onto his back, the Ghost-Winged Tiger King slowly flapped its wings and its entire body shot out, raising a large cloud of gray. After a moment, its trace could no longer be seen in the sky.

As the Phantom Winged Tiger King flew at high speed, Lin Yuan and the others were rapidly closing the distance between them and Canaan Academy.
-
Two days later.

In Canaan City, Canaan College, in an antique courtyard, Wu Tianlang, Lin Yuan and Hu Qian sat opposite each other at a quaint wooden table.

Hu Qian sat on the chair, looked at Lin Yuan, and laughed out loud, "Hahaha, I didn't expect you to come back so soon! And your strength has improved so quickly, you are already at the peak of Douhuang, and you are ready to challenge Douzong soon."

“Haha!” Lin Yuan raised his cup and took a sip of tea, chuckling, “Didn’t Elder Hu advance to Dou Zong as well? Congratulations!”

"Thanks to the Po Zong Dan you refined." Hu Qian's eyes flashed with a hint of satisfaction, "The elixirs you refined before have greatly increased the strength of the academy this year. Not only did I break through to Dou Zong, but even old man Huo began to retreat and break through..."

As he said that, he glanced at Wu Tianlang and said with a smile: "Old Wu, you can also try to impact."

"Let's talk about it after this incident is over!" Wu Tianlang shook his head and said in a deep voice: "I am the one who has a direct conflict with the Demon Flame Valley. Three elders of the Demon Flame Valley died this time. I wonder how that guy, the Earth Demon Old Ghost, will react."

The three great elders of the Demon Flame Valley were the ones who were hunting down Wu Tianlang, but there were more than three people from the Demon Flame Valley who had fought against him.

In any case, the old demon could be sure that the deaths of Fang Yan and the other two were related to Wu Tianlang.

"Old Demon?" Hu Qian's tone became more serious when he mentioned this name. "That old guy has been in seclusion for many years. He should be a high-level Dou Zong now."

After a pause, a stern look flashed in his eyes: "Although it is a bit troublesome, but our Canaan Academy is not a pushover. The Demon Flame Valley is not in the right this time. If they dare to cause trouble, we will definitely kill them."

As he spoke, he clenched his fist violently, and ripples instantly appeared in the air.

Wu Tianlang glanced at Hu Qian's fist and said helplessly, "Old man, just talk about the matter. Why are you showing off? Everyone knows that you have broken through to the Dou Zong level. Is it fun to do this?"

After the old guy Hu Qian broke through, he would show off his spatial abilities to people like them whenever he had the chance.

When his little thoughts were pointed out, Hu Qian chuckled and said proudly, "It's rare that I'm one step ahead and break through to Dou Zong. Shouldn't I show off now? When you guys break through in a while, how can I show off this?"

"The power of space? Is that so?" Lin Yuan smiled lightly, stretched out a finger, his eyes flashed a hint of purple, and the space at the fingertips suddenly twisted slightly.

"Spatial power?" Wu Tianlang and Hu Qian's eyes narrowed immediately.

Taking a deep breath, Hu Qian stared at Lin Yuan in amazement, "You have mastered some spatial abilities at the Douhuang stage. It seems that you have already got the key to break through to the Douzong stage. You are just waiting for the moment when everything will come naturally!"

"It was just a coincidence and luck." Lin Yuan said modestly.

This is a lie. Mastering the power of space is certainly not a matter of luck.

After knowing that mastering the power of space would help in breaking through to the Dou Zong level, Lin Yuan has been busy in the past few months. He has been experimenting and practicing in this area.

For ordinary people, it is almost impossible to control the power of space in advance at the Douhuang stage.

However, when it comes to perceiving and mastering spatial abilities, Lin Yuan has two unique helpers—Zi Yan and Xue Hun.

As the most powerful bloodline of the ancient Taixu dragon, Zi Yan was the darling of the space. What was even more valuable was that Zi Yan was not stingy with Lin Yuan at all, and generously opened up all her power to the latter, doing her best to help him master the power of the ancient dragon.

After several months of practice, Lin Yuan's body was filled with extremely powerful and pure ancient dragon energy.

On the one hand, with the blessing of these ancient dragon auras, Lin Yuan has a very high affinity for the power of space; on the other hand, he can use the blood soul, which is connected to his own consciousness and has the strength of a Dou Zong, to comprehend and practice the power of space.

With the combined effect of the two major aids, Lin Yuan's control over the power of space is no less than that of an average person who has just entered the Dou Zong realm.

"Young people are to be feared!" Looking at Lin Yuan's calm expression, Hu Qian couldn't help but sigh: "This way, the gap between my girl and Wu Hao and you will be even bigger. I wonder if they can bear it..."

He saw clearly the efforts that Hu Jia and Wu Hao, especially Wu Hao, had made in the past few years in order to pursue Lin Yuan.

However, the person they were chasing after, Lin Yuan, was a true super-talented genius, the best student in the history of Canaan Academy. The best student before him was a student with a special bloodline who broke through to Dou Zong before graduation.

Pursuing such a goal is both a blessing and a misfortune.

Hearing Hu Qian's words, Lin Yuan chuckled and said, "Don't worry, Elder Hu, don't underestimate their will. By the way, how are they now?"

"They came to the inner courtyard a few months ago." Hu Qian took a sip of the tea in his cup and said slowly: "Hehe, to be honest, I went to see them secretly the day before yesterday. The two have made great progress recently and have already broken through to the Douling realm."

"That's good!" Lin Yuan nodded.

Then, he drank the tea in the cup and said seriously: "Don't worry about the old demon, I will deal with him and the Demon Flame Valley together." "Lin Yuan, don't do anything stupid." Hu Qian's face changed slightly, and he said seriously: "That old guy is a strong man of the same generation as the dean, and his strength should not be underestimated. Even with the help of Miss Xiao Yixian, it will be difficult for you to deal with him."

Speaking of the Little Medical Fairy, Hu Qian couldn't help but take a breath of cold air again.

A little girl who is not much older than Lin Yuan, but is a powerful person who is stronger than the great elder. What kind of geniuses are gathered around Lin Yuan?

Hearing Hu Qian's advice, Lin Yuan waved his hand and said with a smile: "Don't worry, Mr. Hu, don't you understand what I mean? When have you ever done anything stupid?"

"That's right! I trust you to do things." Thinking of Lin Yuan's style of doing things, Hu Qian felt more at ease and advised: "In short, don't be reckless. Remember, you are the leader of the next generation of the academy, don't get involved in unnecessary dangers."

"Yes!" Lin Yuan replied, and then stood up and bowed to say goodbye: "You two, I'll take my leave today! Next, I will take Zi Yan and Xiao Yixian to the inner courtyard to meet the Great Elder."

"Go ahead. Although you are the next designated elder, rules are rules. You should still report to the elder about the matter of Little Doctor Fairy. In addition, you should also inform the elder about the matter of the Demon Flame Valley."

Lin Yuan nodded, said goodbye, and led the group to fly towards the inner courtyard.

After the few people left his sight, Hu Qian shook his head and sighed: "What a pity, Lin Yuan, my girl seems to have no hope! That silly girl, she has wasted so many opportunities over the years, and now Lin is going to be taken advantage of by outsiders..."

As a shrewd person, he understood the atmosphere between Lin Yuan and Xiao Yixiang at a glance.

"Heh!" Wu Tianlang glanced at him and said playfully, "Isn't your girl setting her mind on the little girl from that tribe?"

"Alas..." When talking about this, Hu Qian's brain twitched suddenly, "Don't mention this to me, it makes me tired..."
-
Two hours later, in the inner courtyard.

Zi Yan stood on the hillside, looking at the familiar huge basin and dense buildings below, a flash of excitement flashed in her eyes, and she laughed loudly. The violent sound waves spread out in all directions with her as the center, like a dragon's roar.

"Inner Courtyard, your Aunt Zi Yan is back again! Hehehehe..."

"This girl!" Lin Yuan slapped his forehead fiercely and looked helplessly at Zi Yan who was standing with her hands on her hips and looking smug.

Little Medical Fairy had the same reaction and rubbed her forehead with her hand.

In the inner courtyard, this voice also caused a huge uproar. People in the inner courtyard had very different reactions to this person who could be described as a ghost story in the inner courtyard.

"Zi Yan... is the Brute King. The Brute King is back?"

"The legendary brute force king? I really want to see him. I wonder if he is one of those barbarians who are several meters tall..."

"Tsk, judging from the sound, has the Brute King's cultivation become stronger again?"

"Alas, the brute force queen is back. It seems that this year's ranking will be overshadowed by her again..."

"Rumor has it that she's a very cute little girl. I really want to... meet her!"

Just as Zi Yan was laughing wildly, the space shook slightly, and a black shadow suddenly appeared beside Zi Yan, and stretched out its hand towards Zi Yan's little face at lightning speed.

The Little Medical Fairy's mind moved subconsciously, and a purple-gray flame instantly rose in her palm.

However, Lin Yuan seemed to have foreseen something and took a step forward, just blocking her position, and shook his head.

However, just as the black shadow's finger was about to touch Zi Yan's cheek, the purple light on Zi Yan's body suddenly flashed, and her body twisted strangely, and she leaped behind Lin Yuan like a cloud dragon, stretched out her little head, and looked at the black shadow proudly.

"Hey, old man! I'm not the same person I used to be. You can't catch me with this trick!"

"Huh?" Su Qian looked at Zi Yan in astonishment, and said in amazement: "You, little girl, can actually dodge this old man's hand? You have improved. Moreover, your aura..."

Feeling Su Qian's surprise, Zi Yan's nose suddenly turned up, she waved her little fist, and looked at the former triumphantly.

"Am I better than when I left the academy?"

"Hey, old man, I've told you before that trapping me in the inner courtyard is absolutely a cruel act. If you had let me out earlier, I would have become a Dou Zong strongman now."

"Stop arguing with me. If I hadn't asked you to go out with Lin Yuan, you would have been sold out and helped others count money. You're a Dou Zong..." Su Qian glanced at Zi Yan and said lightly.

Hearing Su Qian's words, Zi Yan's eyebrows suddenly raised.

She jumped in front of Lin Yuan and glared at Su Qian angrily, "Old man, I am very strong now..."

Before she could finish her harsh words, Lin Yuan slapped her on the head and dragged her back to his side, "Be quiet, little girl. If you want to have a fish feast and try new dishes tonight, you have to behave yourself from now on."

"New dishes?" Zi Yan's eyes lit up and she nodded angrily, but she stared at Su Qian.

"It seems that only you can control this naughty girl!" Seeing Zi Yan being suppressed by Lin Yuan, Su Qian smiled lightly and looked at the Little Medical Fairy. "Who is this girl? Lin Yuan, won't you introduce her to me?"

He had a very good impression of Xiao Yixiang. Just now, the latter subconsciously prepared to protect Zi Yan and seemed to have a good relationship with Zi Yan.

Lin Yuan glanced at the Little Medical Fairy, who thought for a moment and nodded.

Afterwards, Lin Yuan recounted the general story of the Little Medical Fairy, and naturally did not hide the matter of the poisonous body.

"The calamity poison body, the method of poison pill." After listening to Lin Yuan's narration, Su Qian took a breath and looked at the little medical fairy meaningfully, "No wonder she can become a Dou Zong strongman at such a young age, it turns out to be the calamity poison body..."

As the grand elder of Canaan College, he had certainly heard of this rare and special physique.

After a moment's silence, Su Qian looked at Little Medical Fairy and said seriously, "Miss Little Medical Fairy, Canaan College welcomes you. You can stay at Canaan College from now on! I will also have someone keep an eye out for the Bodhi Body Transformation Saliva and Magic Core needed for the Poison Pill Method."

Upon hearing this, the Little Medical Immortal's eyes lit up immediately, and she respectfully bowed as a junior: "Thank you, Great Elder!"

Su Qian waved his hand casually and chuckled, "You're welcome. This is what I should do. After all, there is a good chance that you will become one of us in the future, right? Haha..."

Hearing Su Qian's teasing words, Xiao Yixian's face turned red.

Seeing this, Su Qian smiled even more. He turned his gaze to Lin Yuan and asked, "Lin Yuan, where is Qing Lin? Why can't I see her?"

"Qing'er is in the process of breaking through to the Douhuang realm." Lin Yuan said in a deep voice.

Hearing this, Su Qian frowned slightly and said with some concern: "Breaking through to Dou Huang requires a safe environment, and it takes a lot of time. Why not let her return to the academy to retreat and break through? Is the place where she is retreating now safe?"

"There's no other way. After Qing'er accepted the inheritance of the Green Snake Three Flower Pupils, she was close to a breakthrough. I could only arrange for her to go into seclusion on the spot." Lin Yuan explained.

After thinking for a while, he continued, "Don't worry, Great Elder. Qing'er's breakthrough will be guarded by the Dou Zong-level Queen Medusa herself. There won't be any problems."

"Queen Medusa guards? That's feasible." Su Qian raised his eyebrows and looked at Lin Yuan meaningfully.

Su Qian knew the reputation of Queen Medusa, but she was willing to hand over the clan inheritance to Lin Yuan and to protect Qing Lin's breakthrough. This also made the always meticulous Lin Yuan so relieved. Su Qian basically knew the relationship between her and Lin Yuan.

After glancing at the Little Medical Fairy whose blush had not yet completely faded away, Su Qian's playful gaze fell on Lin Yuan.

"Lin Yuan is not only talented, but also extremely lucky in love. At such a young age, he has already won the hearts of outstanding women. With Qing Lin, his future will be interesting..."

　Original setting:
　　(1) Zi Yan had met Mang Tian Chi;

　　(2) The most outstanding student at Canaan College was a man with a special bloodline who broke through to the Dou Zong level before graduation, and there were also two who broke through to the Dou Huang level before graduation.
