BTTH: I have a key to travel to Wu Dong Qian Kun.

Chapter 195: Conversation with Ying Xuanzi

Dao Sect. Archaic Hall. A certain pavilion. As soon as Xiao Tian and his companions appeared, Lin Dong sensed them. Seeing Xiao Tian and Ying Huanhuan, he couldn't help but smile wryly. "Brother Xiao Tian, you're finally back. The people of Archaic Hall are nearly hating you to death."

"What happened?" Xiao Tian asked, puzzled.

"Of course, it's because you didn't show up for the Hall Exam," Lin Dong said helplessly. "The champion this time was won by Wang Yan from the Heavenly Hall."

"You mean the Hall Exam is already over? And Wang Yan took first place?" Ying Huanhuan exclaimed, wide-eyed.

Lin Dong nodded. "Yes, that's right."

"Oh no!" Ying Huanhuan looked anxious. "Now that Senior Brother Wang Yan has the command authority, he'll definitely use Dao Sect's power to seek revenge against Yuan Gate in the Sect Competition!"

Xiao Tian said, "Revenge is revenge. After all, the conflict between Yuan Gate and Dao Sect is irreconcilable."

"You don't understand. Senior Brother Wang Yan is cold and obsessive. If we follow his methods, many Dao Sect disciples will be heavily injured!" Ying Huanhuan's face showed a hint of distress at the thought.

"Silly girl!" Xiao Tian took the opportunity to pull Ying Huanhuan into his arms, gently saying, "Did you forget that Little Marten and I are here? We'll make a mess of Yuan Gate!"

"Right!" Ying Huanhuan finally reacted, remembering that Xiao Tian and Little Marten had already killed several Yuan Gate elders. Dealing with Yuan Gate disciples would be easy.

"Buzz!"

Suddenly, the void twisted, and Ying Xuanzi, dressed in white, appeared. When he saw Ying Huanhuan and Xiao Tian embracing, his face immediately turned serious.

"Dad!" Ying Huanhuan's face flushed red, quickly pushing Xiao Tian away. At this moment, she became very well-behaved, not daring to glance around, looking entirely different from her usual lively self.

Ying Xuanzi was about to say something but stopped when he saw Ying Huanhuan's eyes. Taking a deep breath, he said, "You all have caused quite a stir. Not only did you steal the Heavenly Hall's treasure, the Heavenly Phoenix Zither, but you also skipped the Hall Exam and killed four Yuan Gate elders and two Spirit Generals."

"Dad, are Yuan Gate people allowed to kill our Dao Sect members, but we're not allowed to kill them?" Ying Huanhuan pouted, grumbling.

"Uh?" Ying Xuanzi glared at his daughter before turning to Xiao Tian. "How did you escape from Ren Yuanzi, that old guy? I worried for over a month."

"Of course, we eliminated him," Xiao Tian said calmly.

"What?" Ying Xuanzi was stunned.

"We killed Ren Yuanzi. He no longer exists in this world," Xiao Tian reiterated.

"Is this true?" Ying Xuanzi's breath quickened. Ren Yuanzi had killed his disciple Zhou Tong, and his hatred for Ren Yuanzi was deep.

"You can check with Yuan Gate to see if Ren Yuanzi's life token is shattered. It's difficult to keep such a secret," Xiao Tian suggested.

"It seems your background is quite extraordinary," Ying Xuanzi said, looking deeply at Xiao Tian.

Xiao Tian glanced at Ying Huanhuan and smiled. "No matter what, I will always be a part of Dao Sect."

"I'll... I'll go now." Feeling Xiao Tian's gaze, Ying Huanhuan's heart raced, and she hurriedly left, turning into a streak of light.

"This girl..." Ying Xuanzi shook his head and then asked, "You know what's happening with Huanhuan, don't you?"

"Yes," Xiao Tian nodded.

"Ah!" Ying Xuanzi sighed. "I sensed something unusual in Huanhuan when she was very young, but I didn't expect she would connect with that spirituality while condensing her Primordial Spirit. For the sect, her being a reincarnator is a great blessing. But as a father, I wish she could be a normal girl, living freely and doing what she likes."

"Master, this is Huanhuan's destiny," Xiao Tian said. "The ancient extinction war was a thousand years ago, and the demons are returning."

"Will they really return?" Ying Xuanzi asked gravely, knowing the demons' power and cunning.

"This world has what they need. They won't give up," Xiao Tian explained. "Do you know why Yuan Gate is so strong?"

"Why?" Ying Xuanzi asked. Most believed it was due to the Celestial Origin Tree.

"Yuan Gate is in contact with the demons," Xiao Tian revealed. "The demons help Yuan Gate's leaders increase their power. Currently, only part of Yuan Gate's higher-ups are involved, but most are unaware."

"What?" Ying Xuanzi was shocked, unable to understand why Yuan Gate would ally with demons.

"For greater power and to dominate the Eastern Xuan Region," Xiao Tian said. "With the demons' help, Yuan Gate's three leaders can reach the Samsara Stage, allowing them to conquer other sects and become the sole ruler."

"No wonder Yuan Gate has been so ruthless and targeted other sects' talents!" Ying Xuanzi finally understood the drastic change in Yuan Gate's behavior.

"Please don't reveal this to other forces to avoid alerting Yuan Gate," Xiao Tian requested. "During the Sect Competition, I plan to kill Yuan Gate's leaders. I hope you can help."

"Rest assured, Dao Sect has a grudge with Yuan Gate. We won't stand by," Ying Xuanzi assured. If they could destroy Yuan Gate, it would settle a long-standing feud.
