Chapter 412 Xiao Yan's Hatred
"Teacher, I…" Xiao Yan looked at Yao Chen with a guilty conscience. He thought that Yao Lao would surely die after falling into the Soul Palace, but who would have thought that the Soul Palace Master actually valued him so much and kept him.
"Bah, don't call me teacher. I'm not as disobedient, unfilial, disloyal, and treacherous as you." Yao Chen spat weakly, spraying Xiao Yan's face with saliva.
Xiao Yan wiped the saliva off his face. He was depressed that his soul could also spit. He couldn't help but feel a little angry, and a big "pound sign" appeared on his forehead.
To be honest, he didn't want things to develop to this point.
To be fair, although he not only failed to find the strange fire but also suffered a lot along the way, Yao Chen was really good to him. Not only did he save him from trouble countless times, but at the critical moment, facing the Dou Zun level of old man Mu Gu, he was willing to sacrifice himself to rescue him and fight for a chance of survival for himself. Xiao Yan saw all of this.
Unfortunately, Yao Chen couldn't give him what he wanted.
If he hadn't been forced into this, he wouldn't have done such an ungrateful thing.
Before the three-year agreement came to an end, he asked himself if he still had great respect for Yao Lao, this mysterious and powerful teacher.
But since when, his heart began to change.
At the wedding of Xiao Se and Medusa in the Tagor Desert, the Snake Tribe, he witnessed that Xiao Se had become a Dou Huang and married Queen Medusa. He also learned from Yao Lao that the strange fire had been intercepted by Xiao Se. At that time, he only felt jealousy and resentment towards Xiao Se.
On the eve of the three-year agreement, Yao Lao helped him refine the Three-Pattern Pure Spirit Pill. In addition, he had frequently used his soul power before, and his soul power was on the verge of exhaustion, and he was about to fall into a deep sleep. Xiao Yan was only touched by Yao Lao in his heart, and he did not have any resentment at all.
Then he entered the Mitre Auction House to make a deal with Xiao Se. Even though Xiao Se threw him out of the Mitre Auction House like garbage, he never hated Yao Lao at all.
Until he lost the three-year agreement and was still brutally beaten by the Soul Palace's guardian Wu even when he was possessed by Yao Lao. In the end, Xiao Se came to the rescue and killed the Soul Palace's guardian Wu with force. His heart began to waver.
When he returned home and saw that the Xiao family had been destroyed and his father had been captured, he was on the verge of collapse, and his inner faith in Yao Lao gradually collapsed.
Later in the Sea Alliance, he witnessed many well-known figures of the Jia Ma Empire surrender to Xiao Se, and Yao Lao could not help but praise Xiao Se's talent in his ear from time to time.
Until the end, his lower three ways were corrupt and he could not be cured without healing elixirs of grade seven or above, which turned him into a cripple. This was the last straw that broke the camel's back.
There is no harm without comparison.
Only then did he recall how perfect his life would have been if Yao Lao had not appeared.
He started practicing Qi at the age of four, possessed the ninth level of Dou Qi at the age of ten, and broke through the tenth level of Dou Qi at the age of eleven. He condensed the Dou Qi cyclone and became a Dou Zhe.
It's exactly like Long Aotian's start.
At this rate, the future looks bright.
He would not be laughed at by the world;
Nalan Yanran would not come to cancel the engagement;
Xiao Xun'er, Xiao Mei and other girls would still surround him;
He might even go out and gain experience before Xiao Se, snatch the opportunity that should belong to Xiao Se, and achieve greater success than he has now.
In the end, Xiao Se, the abandoned child of the Xiao family, was trampled under his feet.
Why has he become the dead eunuch he hated the most in his previous life?

He hated it and blamed Yao Chen for all the suffering he had endured.
After going to great lengths to steal the Fallen Flame from Canaan Academy, Xiao Yan regained hope, but this hope was shattered soon after.
The strange fire that he had subdued at great risk of death was taken away by someone using a special method before it could be integrated with the Burning Art. Even the fused beast fire that he had worked so hard to accumulate was not left behind.
His hatred towards Yao Chen deepened, and he hated Yao Lao for not keeping the hard-earned strange fire for him.
Then something even more unfortunate happened. A few days later, by chance, he met the Soul Palace's Dou Zun, Old Man Mu Gu.
Yao Chen risked his life to save him and gave him a chance of survival, which briefly touched Xiao Yan's heart.
But soon, Xiao Yan gave up this idea.
Even if he escaped, what would happen?
With a mere Great Fighter, how could he subdue the strange fire? How could he become stronger? How could he wash away the shame? How could he crush Xiao Se? How could he rescue his father?
This was only if he could escape.
What if he failed to escape and was caught by Elder Mu Gu?
After thinking it over, he thought of Han Feng. Since Han Feng could backstab Yao Lao and join the Soul Palace, why couldn't he? Moreover, he learned from Elder Mu Gu that he had a bargaining chip that made the Soul Palace excited - the ancient jade.
With the help of this ancient jade, he can obtain the resources of the Soul Palace, quickly improve his cultivation, and even repair the lower three paths. There may not be no hope.
Just as Xiao Yan was racking his brain with thoughts, a sinister and strangely sarcastic laugh suddenly echoed in the dark hall: "Hehehe, what a touching master-disciple scene, Yao Chen, you really have a good eye. It's not enough to accept Han Feng's precious disciple, you actually accepted another one, and this one is even better than Han Feng."
A space opened up from the void above and behind Xiao Yan, and a mysterious man in a black robe walked out of the void.
The appearance of the mysterious man in black robe came without any warning. If Xiao Yan and Yao Chen had not heard the laughter, they would not have known that someone would appear above their heads.
But just standing there, this person made the two men feel creepy. He was far from being comparable to the old Dou Zun Mu Gu.
"It's you, Soul Palace Master." Yao Chen's eyes were empty, and he spoke each word slowly. Even with his calmness, a hint of fear could not help but flash across his eyes. Soul Palace Master, Hun Mie Sheng, this is a genuine Dou Sheng.
Xiao Yan swallowed his saliva, turned back with difficulty, and wanted to turn around, but found that he was frightened and unable to move because of his body's instinct. The only remaining water pipe was so frightened that it automatically opened the gate. Suddenly, the smell of urine filled the entire void.
Is this the Soul Palace Master?
An existence that even Yao Lao, who was once a top Dou Zun warrior, feared.
"Yao Chen, why are you doing this?" Hun Mie Sheng glanced at Xiao Yan's wet crotch, a hint of teasing appeared on the corner of his mouth, and then he said, "If you surrender to my Soul Palace, I can hand over this kid from the Xiao family who was scared to pee his pants to you. Anyway, Mu Gu is about to get the Xiao family ancient jade, so there is not much use in keeping this waste."
"Kill this traitor for me, and I will agree to you." Yao Lao glared at Hun Mie Sheng. It was definitely impossible to ask him to defect to the Soul Palace. At this moment, he had already made up his mind to die, but he also wanted to drag Xiao Yan down with him before he died.
He hated himself so much. He knew that there was something wrong with Xiao Yan's character, but he didn't listen to Xiao Se and abandon Xiao Yan.
He arrogantly thought that he could correct the problem himself, or at least the other party would not deny his teacher. Unexpectedly, Xiao Yan still followed Han Feng's old path.
