Everyone was waiting for Xiao Yan's decision. Even Jia Xingtian dared not overstep his bounds, given the terrifying power behind Xiao Yan.
"The people of Yunlan Sect..." Xiao Yan took a deep breath before speaking, "Within three days, Yunlan Sect will be disbanded, or everyone will die!"
The hatred between the Xiao family and the Yunlan Sect was basically instigated by Yun Ling. The Soul Palace was merely colluding with Yun Shan and other powerful figures. As for the other disciples of the Yunlan Sect, Xiao Yan did not have any irreconcilable hatred with them. Since Yun Shan and the others were dead, Xiao Yan would not make things difficult for them.
When Jia Xingtian and the others heard Xiao Yan's words, they all showed a look of surprise. According to their guess, Xiao Yan had just lost his teacher and was probably in great grief. They were worried that Xiao Yan would use this opportunity to slaughter the disciples of Yunlan Sect to vent his emotions.
It now seems that Xiao Yan's ability to withstand pressure far exceeds their expectations.
Jia Xingtian and the others had no objection to Xiao Yan's decision. After all, without Yun Shan and other powerful figures, the remaining Yunlan Sect disciples posed no threat to the royal family. Naturally, they would not risk being labeled as "bloodthirsty" to slaughter Yunlan Sect disciples.
The battle of Yunlan Sect ended hastily with the deaths of Yunshan and other high-ranking members, and the capture of Yao Lao. Upon hearing Xiao Yan's decision, the remaining Yunlan Sect disciples immediately left the mountain, completely abandoning their identity as Yunlan Sect disciples.
From this day forward, the Yunlan Sect, which has stood in the Jiama Empire for hundreds of years, has become history.
Xiao Yan stood atop the Yunlan Sect mountain, looking down at the densely packed departing disciples, his expression profound, lost in thought.
......
[Ding! A major plot twist has been detected. The host has received a reward.]
Inside Dinggu City, Xiao Fan and Yun Yun were in Tianxiang Tower, asking Luo Ning if he had any news about the Poison Sect. But a sudden mechanical voice made Xiao Fan freeze in place.
ps.
Brothers, the side story is over. Next, it's time to wrap up the story of the Izumo Empire. After that, please forgive me for writing too much about Xiao Yan earlier. I will focus on writing about Xiao Fan next, but I will also insert some of Mo Shang's daily life in the Soul Palace.
Chapter 68 New System
[Ding! A major plot twist has occurred. Please claim your reward.]
Inside Tianxiang Tower, Xiao Fan and Yun Yun were sitting in the VIP room, asking Luo Ning about the latest news on the Poison Sect, when a mechanical voice suddenly rang in Xiao Fan's mind, making him freeze in place.
"A major change?"
Upon hearing the system's words, Xiao Fan felt a sense of foreboding. Could it be that something had happened to the Gama Empire?
"System, what's happened?"
The system did not respond to Xiao Fan's question. Seeing this, Xiao Fan could only accept the system reward first.
"Check your rewards."
[Ding! You have obtained the Turtle Spirit Earth Fire Map.]
[Ding! Map of the Salamander Clan gathering area obtained.]
[Ding! Gained 200 Battle Qi Points]
......
Xiao Fan looked at the items suggested by the system and a look of surprise appeared on his face.
The Tortoise Spirit Earth Fire is the thirteenth ranked strange fire on the list of strange fires. Its shape resembles a giant tortoise, its body covered with strange, sharp fire spikes, and its ferocious giant mouth is filled with brown flames with fangs like blades.
Unlike the Azure Lotus Earth Core Flame, the Turtle Spirit Earth Fire is not violent in nature. It emits a much heavier and more oppressive aura. Xiao Fan did not expect that the system would actually reward him with a map of the Turtle Spirit Earth Fire this time.
In addition to the map of the Tortoise Spirit Fire, there is also a map showing the gathering of the Salamander clan.
The fire lizard race is a mysterious race from the magma beneath Canaan Academy. They were created by the ancient emperor Tuoshe to guard the tomb, and the strongest among them even reached the level of a half-saint, making them incredibly terrifying.
However, at the same time, they are also an excellent training ground for fire-attribute cultivators to improve their strength.
These fire lizards contain a fire bead inside their bodies; absorbing this fire bead can rapidly elevate the absorber's cultivation level.
As for the final 200 battle qi points, Xiao Fan did not plan to claim them now. After all, this was inside the Tianxiang Pavilion, and the system was his biggest trump card. Xiao Fan did not want to break through directly in front of them.
"We have something to do now, we'll be back in a bit."
Xiao Fan opened his eyes, looked at Yun Yun and Luo Ning, and then, without offering any further explanation, pulled Yun Yun and left Tianxiang Tower, returning to the inn where they were staying.
"what happened?"
Xiao Fan suddenly pulled her away from Tianxiang Tower. Yun Yun didn't know why. Now that it was just the two of them, she asked.
"I'm about to break through."
As soon as Xiao Fan finished speaking, the Dou Qi rewarded by the system surged into his body, and his aura rose directly from an eight-star Dou Huang.
Yunyun: ......
Upon hearing Xiao Fan's words, Yun Yun's forehead creased with worry. How long had it been? Was Xiao Fan about to break through again?
Although she knew that Xiao Fan's breakthroughs were common, Yun Yun was still somewhat surprised by his rocket-like speed of breakthroughs.
In no time, Xiao Fan's cultivation level directly climbed to the peak of Dou Huang. Fortunately, Yun Yun was by his side, and she had already isolated the room, so the fluctuations of Xiao Fan's breakthrough did not reach the outside world.
The moment Xiao Fan broke through to the Dou Zong level, the soul power that Yao Lao had left in Xiao Fan's mind was given to him once again. However, after so many times of adaptation, and with Xiao Fan's current soul strength being quite formidable, he did not feel any discomfort, and even felt a little comfortable.
Xiao Fan absorbed countless pill formulas and alchemy experience from the old masters, and his own alchemy skills improved significantly.
......
Within the system space, the figure bound by chains raised its head.
"Damn it, after all this time, this kid has finally broken through to the Dou Zong realm. The old methods were completely useless; he doesn't even use any source coins. This can't go on. I... no, I have to rearrange things for him. My time is running out..."
[Ding! Congratulations, host, you have advanced to the Dou Zong realm. The system has been updated. Please check.]
When Xiao Fan broke through to the Dou Zong level, the system's voice rang in Xiao Fan's mind once again.
Upon hearing the system's voice, Xiao Fan showed a look of surprise, and then asked, "System update?"
Xiao Fan then curiously opened the system interface to see what changes had occurred.
"Open the panel."

(I haven't posted any updates on the panel lately. I'm posting this now to remind everyone, and it's definitely not just to pad the word count! Two chapters for you!)
"Not much has changed?"
Xiao Fan examined his system panel, but also discovered that the soul experience left to him by Yao Lao would probably only last for one more inheritance before it would completely disappear.
However, after examining the system partition, Xiao Fan noticed the differences after the update.
The system was originally divided into four modules.
The game features sections for: Shop, Quests, Summoning, and Affection.
However, now only the shop and quest sections remain in the system. Summoning and affinity have disappeared. Furthermore, all items in the shop are refreshed monthly, and items that are refreshed will no longer appear in the shop.
However, the level of favorability is not impossible to check. Depending on the other party's identity, strength, and realm, a certain amount of source coins are required to view it.
Besides being obtained as a reward for completing tasks, Source Coins can also be acquired by exchanging rare and precious materials. However, the resources required for this process are certainly not insignificant.
In short, the current system, from the inside out, reveals two words: cannibalism, no, money-grubbing!
After reviewing the system update, Xiao Fan's expression became even stranger.
It seems like this system is forcing me to pay up!
Chapter 69 I didn't say you could take action
"Whatever, I don't need anything in here right now anyway."
Xiao Fan glanced at the system shop. Perhaps because the system had just been upgraded, the items hadn't been refreshed yet.
After figuring out the system update function, Xiao Fan stopped studying it, since he felt that the changes to the system weren't significant.
Although the previous summoning module was gone, Xiao Fan hadn't used it much anyway, so he wasn't too concerned.
As for the favorability rating, it can still be viewed in the future, but it will require paying source coins. Xiao Fan has only used the favorability rating a handful of times, so in his opinion, this system reward is a freebie.
"However, with the system giving out so many rewards, it's probably from the teacher..."
Although he didn't know the specific reason, Xiao Fan could roughly guess what had happened based on the rewards from the system.
After all, the system rewards of Turtle Spirit Earth Fire and the distribution map of the Fire Lizard clan clearly indicated that Xiao Fan was meant to train Xiao Yan.
So, it seems that something has happened to Master Yao.
Thinking of this, Xiao Fan's expression darkened. Originally, Xiao Fan had already raised You Ruo's strength to a three-star Dou Zong. Even if Protector Wu of the Yunlan Sect appeared, he would definitely not be a match for You Ruo.
Furthermore, he didn't believe that the Yunlan Sect would go to war with the Xiao family, so Xiao Fan left the Jia Ma Empire with full confidence. However, he didn't expect that something would happen there as soon as he left.
Fortunately for Xiao Fan, even within the Soul Palace, they wouldn't kill Yao Lao directly, so there was no need to worry about Yao Lao's safety.
