334: Chapter 334 Following the Clues, the Mysterious Heavenly Heart

"Remember, for today's humiliation, the Xiao Family will surely pay you a visit in the future!"

Xiao Li spoke again, his hands clenched tightly within his sleeves until they creaked. Silver lightning snakes flowed in his eyes, resembling a world of thunder.

"Then this Saint shall wait with a swept bed!" the Black Robed Man responded forcefully, showing no fear at all.

Led by the black-robed powerhouse, several powerful figures tore through the void, stepped in, and vanished.

"Second Uncle..." As Xiao Lin spoke anxiously, Xiao Li gently waved his hand.

His figure flickered and disappeared from mid-air, reappearing in the main hall. He sat down on a chair and began sipping tea.

Soon after, Xiao Lin walked in slowly, his face pale, and took the seat of honor.

"Second Uncle, why let them go? If we opened the Star Realm and let Eldest Uncle and the others out, we could have definitely kept them here!"

Xiao Lin said indignantly. He had originally thought his Second Uncle would take action to slay the incoming enemies.

"Oh? Slay them? And then what?"

Xiao Li put down his teacup and inquired.

"And then..." Xiao Lin hadn't thought that far ahead and stammered.

"And then the enemies are slain, but the Jia Ma Holy City is destroyed and leveled to the ground..." Xiao Li said coldly. Could the currently half-ruined Holy City not illustrate the point?

Xiao Lin's expression changed. The Jia Ma Holy City destroyed? One must know that this was the ancestral land of the Xiao Family; furthermore, if a peerless battle truly broke out today...

I'm afraid not a single citizen of the Jia Ma Holy City would escape the catastrophe.

Moreover, the Imperial Family would not allow it. Relying on one's own strength to oppose all the factions of the Jia Ma Empire is foolish.

There was once such a person years ago, and he is still imprisoned within the Heavenly Flame Void Space, unable to be reborn!

"Tell me, what caused all this?"

Xiao Li changed the subject and began to ask about the cause of this disturbance in the Xiao Family!

Sigh!

Xiao Lin gave a helpless sigh and slowly began: "A few days ago, Yu Jie sent word..." As Xiao Lin recounted the story, time quietly slipped away.

Fifteen minutes later, Xiao Lin had finally explained the ins and outs of the matter clearly.

"Hun Tiandi?" Xiao Li murmured, his expression solemn. Even after so many years, Xiao Li had not forgotten what kind of bloody catastrophe that man had brought upon the Central Plains.

That was a disaster where countless lives were paid as the price. If not for the final moment when Third Brother emerged to attain the Dao of the supreme Dou Di...

He suppressed that man, burned his Emperor Body, and sealed him within the Void Space.

"Second Uncle, I have already inspected the seal, and there has been no change. It should just be a person with the same name!"

Xiao Lin informed Xiao Li. Knowing that the seal was set by Third Brother, he naturally believed what Xiao Lin said.

"It seems I need to take a trip to the Black-Corner Region!"

Xiao Li said in a heavy voice.

He told Xiao Lin to recover well; the Xiao Family had its own Pill Hall, and there was no shortage of healing medicinal pills.

At this time, those in the Xiao Family who were not injured were tidying up the destroyed buildings and burying the clansmen who had lost their lives.

Additionally, Xiao Lin had already ordered that all the funds for the upcoming reconstruction of the Holy City would be provided by the Xiao Family.

Doing so could win a good reputation for the Xiao Family.

Afterward, Xiao Li left the Xiao Family.

While everyone was tasting the specialty dishes, a man suddenly rushed in and spoke to a nearby table: "Young Master, a golden dragon has been discovered!"

"A golden dragon? Let's go take a look!" A man in white robes, holding a fan, showed a hint of excitement in his eyes.

They then left the restaurant!

Clack!

Hun Tiandi put down his chopsticks and immediately stood up to walk outside. Mei Niang and the others were puzzled.

He sped off in the direction the white-robed youth had previously left.

After following for a day and a night, atop a mountain peak, Hun Tiandi stood with his hands behind his back. A group of five people followed him as they looked out from the height toward the foot of a distant mountain.

It seemed everyone sensed something interesting. A group of about a hundred people stood in neat formation, each one alert and ready for battle.

They were looking with great interest at a massive circular cage in the center.

It appeared white, seemingly the prototype of a formation, looking like an inverted bowl. It exuded a faint aura and was a massive cage.

It imprisoned those inside.

If one looked closely, standing within this massive formation was a young girl about ten years old with her hair in buns. She wore a light green dress and radiated an aura of youth.

She gave off a lively feeling, her fair and delicate cheeks looking so soft that one might think water could be squeezed from them.

It made one want to reach out and pinch them.

But at this moment, the little girl seemed very angry. Her small face was twisted in fury, her pearly teeth lightly biting her lip, her eyes wide with rage as she stared fixedly outside the cage.

She had an expression that said 'you're dead meat'.

Beside the little girl lay a dragon—a golden dragon with deer antlers, carp whiskers, an ox nose, a python body, and eagle claws...

It was a truly powerful dragon-type magical beast.

The dragon's body coiled, occupying half the space of the entire cage, currently imprisoned within the formation.

On the golden dragon's body were numerous wounds with blood flowing out; it had clearly gone through a battle earlier.

The golden dragon was imprisoned, its body coiled and pressing against the formation, but the cage was too strong and only deformed slightly.

Ten people around were fueling the formation, their goal being to trap the little girl and the golden dragon inside.

Outside the formation, two guards lay on the ground as if they had fainted. Their faces were clouded with black energy that surged and billowed like poisonous snakes.

"The Tianshui Sect's Azure Water Great Formation!" Mei Niang spoke slowly, her dark brows furrowing slightly.

"The Azure Water Great Formation... why would it appear here? It must be experts from the Tianshui Sect coming to imprison the golden dragon and the little girl!"

Liu Ling said in surprise.

Hun Tiandi stared into the distance and noticed some familiar figures, especially the little girl and the golden dragon.

"Do you still have an impression of the sight of the Golden Dragon Roiling the Sea that we saw before entering the Jia Ma Empire?"

Hun Tiandi reminded them.

"Yes, the Golden Dragon Roiling the Sea. The ones out at sea then were the little girl and the golden dragon in the cage..." Mei Niang's eyes widened; all five of them had seen it.

Several figures flew over from the distance. It was the white-robed youth who had left the restaurant earlier, landing outside the cage.

"Tian Xin, I've finally caught you. As long as you let me plant a restriction on you, I will let you and the golden dragon out! Also, what happened to my guards?"

The white-robed youth teased, looking playfully at the little girl.

But the little girl gritted her teeth and said nothing, a cold and angry light shining in her beautiful eyes.

"Young Master, this Azure Water Great Formation cuts off sound; we can't hear anything!"

A guard beside him reminded.

"No matter, she understands lip-reading!" The white-robed youth smiled.

The little girl looked cold, staring at the guard who had just spoken. It was him—she and Little Jin had already entered the sea to escape, and it should have been impossible for them to be imprisoned by the formation.

"Damn it, how dare you block my path!"

The little girl, Tian Xin, looked at the two guards lying unconscious on the ground and said angrily.

"What exactly did you do? Why are there no injuries? Did the golden dragon strike secretly?" the white-robed youth said with a cold face, his gaze staring icily at Tian Xin.

"Zong Yan, you'd better release me now, otherwise when the Dragon King descends, not one of you will escape!"

Tian Xin said chillingly, her whole body radiating a terrifying aura.

"Release you? As long as you agree to be my wife, I will let you go!" Zong Yan said in a deep voice, but these words surprised the guards beside him.

"You're too old. I'm only twelve; I won't marry you!"

Tian Xin immediately shook her head.
