Yan keenly sensed that Bibi Dong's soul hunting plan was going to be brought forward.
Dugu Bo's death would accelerate Qian Renxue's plan to seize control over the Heaven Dou Empire.
Once the Heaven Dou Empire fell into Qian Renxue's hands whether under the guise of Crown Prince Xue Qinghe or as her true self it would pose a major threat to Bibi Dong's plans.
For the unification of the Spirit Hall, Qian Renxue had been lurking within the Heaven Dou Imperial Family for many years. If she succeeded in taking over the empire, her status within Spirit Hall would undoubtedly rise.
That was not something Bibi Dong wanted to see.
Since ascending to the position of Pope, Bibi Dong had made countless efforts, expanding the influence of Spirit Hall to unprecedented heights.
She wanted to keep Spirit Hall firmly in her grasp and would never hand it back to the Qian Clan she despised most.
Even if Qian Renxue was her biological daughter, it could not hinder the vengeance that burned in her heart.
Not long after Yan exited the grand hall, he spotted Yue Guan and the other three.
They hadn't gone far, seemingly waiting for Yan.
He walked directly over.
Xie Yue asked:
"Brother Yan, did Her Holiness the Pope assign you a secret mission?"
"It's not exactly a secret mission. I'm just going to recruit Feng Xiaotian, Shui Bing'er, and Huo Wushuang."
"So that's it. You're close with them this task probably can only be done by you."
"Mm."
Yue Guan said with some concern:
"Yan, take more people with you. Although Dugu Bo is dead, Yu Xiaogang has seen your hundred-thousand-year spirit ring. News of it will spread quickly. You should be more cautious."
"Too many people would just get in the way. Don't worry, nothing will happen."
Seeing Yan's confident demeanor, Yue Guan didn't say anything more.
Hu Liena asked.
"Brother Yan, when will you be setting out?"
"I'll go pack up and leave right away. What about you all?"
"We're also departing today. You'll be on your own for this mission be careful on the road."
Yan nodded.
"Alright. I hope you'll soon find suitable spirit beasts and obtain your sixth spirit ring."
"Mm, thank you."
This was a world where strength reigned supreme.
As long as you were powerful enough, you could change how others viewed you and reshape your destiny.
Hu Liena's attitude toward Yan had shifted from indifference in the beginning to respect, and now to concern because Yan had grown stronger and stronger.
However, to Yan, how Hu Liena treated him no longer mattered.
Everything in the past was but fleeting clouds to him.
After bidding farewell to the four of them, Yan returned to his residence. He quickly packed and departed from Spirit City.
Staying within Spirit City always gave him a sense of invisible pressure, making him feel uneasy all over.
He could sense that Bibi Dong had started to become wary of him.
This mission might very well just be a test.
The three elemental academies Divine wind, Sky Water, and Blazing Fire all resided in Heaven Dou City and were long-standing, powerful institutions.
Feng Xiaotian, Huo Wushuang, and Shui Bing'er, as outstanding young Spirit Masters, were surely already being valued by Emperor Xue Ye, who might've even promised them rewards or titles.
Trying to recruit them at this point would be extremely difficult.
But Yan had no choice.
Because he knew that Bibi Dong's soul hunting plan would eventually commence.
At present, no power could truly rival Spirit Hall.
If those three elemental academies refused to submit, they might face suppression from Bibi Dong or even total annihilation.
Even if they only pretended to compromise, it would be better than nothing.
Several dozen days later, Yan arrived at Blazing Fire City and found Blazing Fire Academy.
Aside from Huo Wushuang and Huo Wu, he didn't recognize anyone here.
He knew that those people were likely to side with the Heaven Dou Empire after all, they were all part of the Empire.
To avoid unnecessary trouble, Yan didn't enter the academy. Instead, he had someone summon Huo Wushuang and Huo Wu.
It had been nearly three years since they last saw Yan, and the sibling pair were both surprised.
Being fellow fire-attribute soul masters, the two of them could clearly sense the immensely powerful flame aura coming from Yan.
After Dugu Bo's death, Yu Xiaogang had spread word that Yan possessed a hundred-thousand-year soul ring, and the news quickly spread throughout both empires.
Huo Wushuang and Huo Wu had also heard.
They had been hoping to meet Yan sooner or later what they didn't expect was for Yan to come looking for them himself.
Huo Wu exclaimed.
"Brother Yan, we haven't seen you in nearly three years, and the changes in you are incredible. I heard you have a hundred-thousand-year soul ring is it true?"
Yan nodded.
"I didn't expect the news to reach your ears so quickly."
Huo Wushuang asked curiously:
"Brother Yan, what kind of soul beast did that hundred-thousand-year ring come from?"
"I was lucky to encounter a hundred-thousand-year Three-headed Crimson Demon Hound. Elder Chrysanthemum and I killed it together and I successfully absorbed its soul ring."
"Three-headed Crimson Demon Hound? That's an extremely ferocious fire-attribute soul beast. I've heard they're very rare. Even our elders might not have seen one. You not only found one but also killed a hundred-thousand-year-old one that's amazing!"
Huo Wushuang looked at Yan with admiration.
He and Huo Wu had heard from Shui Bing'er that she'd encountered Yan in the Frozen Forest a few months ago, and that they had worked together to kill a fearsome Dark Demon Evil God Tiger.
The siblings both knew that Yan's current strength had far surpassed what they could imagine.
Huo Wu asked:
"Brother Yan, are you just passing through this time? Or did you come specifically to find us?"
"I came here specifically to find you two. I have something to give you and something I want to discuss with you. Also, I want to find Feng Xiaotian and Shui Bing'er."
Hearing that, Huo Wu looked a little expectant.
"Brother Yan, is it something important?"
"You could say that. I'll tell you all together when the time comes."
"Alright. Divine wind Academy isn't far from here. Let's take you there."
"Okay."
The three of them then headed together to nearby Divine wind City to find Feng Xiaotian.
On the way, the siblings talked with Yan about their recent situation.
The two of them were now working at Blazing Fire Academy, and both had reached rank 53 in soul power.
Huo Wu was now in a relationship with Feng Xiaotian.
Feng Xiaotian's soul power had reached rank 57, the highest among their group.
Moreover, just like Huo Wushuang, Feng Xiaotian had the potential to become the future head of his academy.
The three of them soon arrived at Divine wind Academy.
Again, Yan didn't go in he asked Huo Wu to call Feng Xiaotian out.
Seeing Yan again, Feng Xiaotian was also quite shocked.
He had also heard the news that Yan possessed a hundred-thousand-year soul ring.
"Brother Yan, you're already a celebrity across the Douluo Continent the youngest person ever to possess a hundred-thousand-year soul ring."
"It's nothing special. Maybe you'll all have a chance someday too."
"A hundred-thousand-year soul ring isn't that easy to get."
Feng Xiaotian chuckled awkwardly, then his expression suddenly changed.
"Brother Yan, I'm afraid I can't go with you all to find Bing'er this time."
"What happened?"
Feng Xiaotian's eyes turned sharp.
"Recently, a group of wolf bandits appeared on the empire's western frontier. They burn, kill, loot, and commit all manner of evil, destroying many villages. As a Gale Demon Wolf soul master, it's my duty to eliminate those mutated beasts. I plan to go with some seniors to wipe them out and bring peace to the local people."
