Xiao Yu smiled, and carefully savored the words that Nangong Yan had said.
It sounded like Xiao Family had actually invited more than one Ruler to their Nether Earth. Their goal was obvious, and it was naturally to deal with him. But how did their Xiao Family suddenly have so many Rulers?
"It's not that I'm not willing to work with you, but you said that Xiao Family has invited a few Rankers. Isn't that a bit too exaggerated? From what I know, there are only two Rulers in Xiao Family, and one of them is even dying. Are you trying to scare me? " Xiao Yu thought for a long time before continuing.
"Hehe, looks like Elder Brother Xiao isn't clear about the current situation of Ten Prefectures. Whatever, in order to express my sincerity, I'll tell Elder Brother Xiao about it." Nangong Yan looked deeply at Xiao Yu, and said: "Today's Ten Prefectures is primarily used by the major forces. Many people from the great powers have already begun to join forces."
"Alliance?" Xiao Yu nodded, he had heard the Star Pavilion Master speak of this before.
In the face of a chaotic future, even the major Ancient Clan would not be able to handle it on their own. As a result, many powers currently within the Ten Prefectures had chosen to join hands.
"Xiao Family is a famous Ancient Clan and their strength is not weak within the Ten Prefectures. Naturally, there are many forces of varying sizes willing to cooperate with it." Nangong Yan continued to speak, "Now, Xiao Family has become one with several other ancient powers, and does not only possess the strength of two king level entities."
Also, on the Ten Prefectures, there are many kings that are alone, or that do not belong to any major power. In the face of this chaos, in order to protect themselves in this chaotic world, these kings can only choose to rely on those major powers. Thus, the number of kings that can be used in the Xiao Family today, is most likely not less than ten!
Hearing this, Xiao Yu finally understood what Nangong Yan meant.
Indeed, in terms of Ten Prefectures, there were many kings who were all alone, or that the powers they belonged to were not strong, such as Blood Feather King and Linglong.
Now that the rumors about the chaotic world had spread across the Ten Prefectures, it was not surprising that those kings would be recruited by those great powers.
"Elder Brother Xiao, I have already told you everything that you want to know. Nangong Yan continued: "To be honest, I value you greatly, so you should be able to sense it."
Xiao Yu smiled slightly without speaking a word. This Nangong Yan was indeed smart, and knew that he was purposely listening in on the situation with regards to Xiao Family.
However, the reason why Nangong Yan asked for him to cooperate was most likely because he saw the strength of the Battle King previously. Otherwise, he might not be this courteous.
"Xiao Yu, Brother Nan Gong has already given you enough face, and I have told you about the Xiao Family! You have to know that Brother Nan Gong has already broken through to become a king, and even though you are strong, you are only at Heaven Sect Stage.
Seeing Xiao Yu remaining silent, a Dao God Palace disciple standing behind Nangong Yan shouted at him.
"You are?" Xiao Yu was startled, only that the person in front of him looked familiar.
"Any words from the Great Void Sect!" The young disciple coldly said, his face full of arrogance.
Xiao Yu remembered, this person was also one of the top young geniuses of the nine great Spirit Palaces. He had seen him before in the Ancient Battlefield.
It was just that today, there were people who had broken through to become king within the Dao God Palace, and there were even some who had obtained an opportunity within the Ancient Battlefield, and after returning, their strength greatly increased.
This word was one of them. Back then, he and Nangong Yan were both top disciples in the palace but now, they could only follow behind Nangong Yan.
"So it's you!" Xiao Yu laughed disdainfully: "You are willing to follow others, that is your problem, just because you are left behind, don't think that I am in the same position as you!"
"What did you say?" Ren Yan's face turned red.
To tell the truth, many of the top disciples in the palace had made progress in recent days, but he had been left far behind.
When he saw Xiao Yu, he felt that Xiao Yu was of the same level as him, but now that he had followed Nangong Yan, he did not want to admit that Xiao Yu was stronger than him.
"Nangong Yan, this kind of trash, in my opinion, just don't stay by your side!" Xiao Yu laughed coldly and shook his head. This Ren Yan was so ambitious, and was destined to never achieve anything.
"Elder Brother Xiao, please don't blame me. Brother Ren and I were good friends in the past, that's why we are travelling together." Nangong Yan explained.
"Oh, I see!" Xiao Yu nodded his head meaningfully. Nangong Yan was talking about his good friend from the past, in other words, even the current Nangong Yan could not see through his words.
"You're courting death!" When Ren Yan heard the mockery in Xiao Yu's words, he was so angry that his face turned red.
"You're asking to be humiliated!" Xiao Yu laughed coldly, he then casually pointed out his finger and a sharp light appeared on his fingertip.
"Pfft!"2
With a flash of divine light, Ren Yan's expression changed drastically. He staggered back, a bloody hole appearing in his left shoulder. It was a shocking sight.
His eyes glazed over, as if he was somewhat in disbelief. He was once called a monster of the palace, but the current him was no match for Xiao Yu.
"Brother Ren, why must you do this?" Nangong Yan stared at Xiao Yu, his eyes flashing, he sighed, then spoke to Ren Yan: "With Elder Brother Xiao's current strength, I'm afraid that ordinary King are not his match, if you offend Elder Brother Xiao, even I will not be able to protect you!"
Seeing Xiao Yu attacking without stopping, Nangong Yan's attitude towards him was already very clear. Compared to him, whose strength had been left behind, Nangong Yan attached more importance to Xiao Yu!
He was only asking to be humiliated!
"Forget it, I'm too lazy to even kill someone like him." Xiao Yu shook his head. To him, any words would not make any difference, it was not something to be afraid of.
Being left behind by some of his peers had caused his will to waver. This kind of person would definitely not be able to walk far on the Cultivation Way.
"Elder Brother Xiao, then what about our cooperation?" Nangong Yan seemed to not want to give up and continued.
"I'm used to travelling alone, I'm afraid I'll have to disappoint you!" Xiao Yu shook his head and laughed.
This Nangong Yan was too scheming, and even his good friend from the past gave up so easily. How could Xiao Yu cooperate with such a person?
"If that's the case, it's too bad!" Nangong Yan's face did not show any change, and he let out a very regretful sigh.
"Farewell!" Xiao Yu left as soon as he said, but Nangong Yan did not reveal any change in his expression, which made him even more convinced that this man was too scheming, and that it would be bad if he got into contact with him.
"Although we were unable to cooperate, if we meet in the future, I hope that Elder Brother Xiao can help when necessary." Nangong Yan appeared to be very generous, as if he did not feel unhappy at all at Xiao Yu's rejection.
"Of course!" Xiao Yu replied simply, and without turning his head, he entered the passage.
It was only when Xiao Yu left that the emotions in Nangong Yan's eyes changed.
