”Didn't Eryan say he was more friendly?” Mo Zi Chen said with a smile.

”Then why did you call him older brother Xuan?” Chu Tianyi pointed at Lin Xuanyi and asked.

”Because his nickname is Brother Xuan.” Mo Zi Chen said helplessly. Lin Xuanyi's grandmother came from the southern region of the ocean. People there called him a brother when they called him a child. His grandmother had called him big brother Xuan all the way until now.

”Tell me who that little beauty is first.” Shui Qiannan interrupted their conversation.

”There's a little girl who insisted on coming back with Er Yan.” Lin Xuanyi said in amusement.

Chu Tianyan silently rolled his eyes at them and seriously said to Lin Xuanyi, ”She didn't want to follow me, she wanted to follow me back. We just arrived at the western side of the city and that little girl just charged in and stopped. I think she has her eyes on you, but you're too cold, so you had to follow me back.”

”Is that so?” Shui Qiannan asked.

”Don't mention it, boss. It's all thanks to the pill you gave me. Otherwise, I really wouldn't have been able to get out of there. I really don't want to go back to that place anymore.” Chu Tianyan said with a trace of fear.

”We almost died when we got there, the Flint Forest really does live up to its name.” Mo Zi Chen said.

In the beginning, it was really difficult for him to deal with the spirit beasts when they rushed out. He had been relying on Chu Tianyi's help the entire time, but Lin Xuanyi had come and gone as she wished. Since there weren't any spirit beasts attacking him, Lin Xuanyi calmly stood to the side, collecting spirit medicine.

”However, I have also become familiar with the water element, and I feel that my spirit energy has increased. Although I can't advance like brother Xuan, I am still very happy.” Mo Zi Chen smiled.

”Alright then.” Shui Qiannan nodded.

”I wasn't affected by the spirit beasts at all. None of them attacked me.” Lin Xuanyi also had some doubts.

”It's probably related to the fact that you're a wood element, or something precious on your body.” Shui Qiannan speculated.

”I only have a piece of jade that Grandmother left for me. This jade is ordinary and doesn't have any spiritual energy at all.” Lin Xuanyi touched the jade pendant on his neck in confusion.

Shui Qiannan looked at the jade pendant around Lin Xuanyi's neck. It seemed very ordinary. Shui Qiannan shook his head. ”I don't know either.”

Chu Tianyan, Lin Xuanyi, and Mo Zichen explained some of the events that had happened in the Flint Forest. Some were amazed, some were dangerous. Chu Tianyan described everything vividly, and Mo Zi Chen interjected a few words from time to time. The atmosphere in the room was very good.

Zuo Yi Yun was also attracted by their experiences. The initial nervousness and depression had all disappeared.

This was the first time the future leaders of the five clans had gathered together. Other than Shui Qiannan, no one else had thought that they would take over the family.

”I came back to find that people outside were discussing the matter of Shui Qianyu being crippled. What happened? What did she do to you?” Chu Tianyan asked like a curious baby.

Shui Qiannan lightly recounted what had happened in the past few days and also told them that the crown prince was not someone they could deal with. Everyone had to be careful.

”I knew that fellow wasn't a good person. On the day of the Family Competition, he wanted my life with every move and was extremely sinister.” Chu Tianyan's tone was filled with disdain towards Hou Ziming.

”Currently, our five great clans are losing more and more status in the Yan Qi Kingdom. Back then, there were six great clans and one of them was the Hou clan. The six great clans conquered this world side by side and the Hou clan finally ascended the throne to become the founding emperor. Realizing that the other five families had rendered meritorious services, they were bestowed with unparalleled glory. But now, it's a calamity that's about to end. We have to endure it, but the Emperor has to suppress it step by step. ” Lin Xuanyi said helplessly.
