There were five System notifications on the System Panel. Chen Yang had already experienced the benefits of the Sixth-Rank Alchemy Skill promotion; being able to write down the medicinal herbs required for the spirit fusing pill was also due to obtaining the Sixth-Rank Alchemy Skill.
What pleasantly surprised Chen Yang was that "Phoenix Soaring Step" merged with "Phoenix Soaring Nine Heavens" to become "Phoenix Dancing Nine Heavens." Although it sounded a bit like Old-School Disco, the term Phoenix Dancing Nine Heavens actually describes a man of noble status. "Phoenix Dancing Nine Heavens" is also a genuine Earth-Tier High-Grade Flying Movement Dou Technique.
Aside from the skill rewards, the remaining Physical Rewards were quietly waiting in his storage ring, ready for future use.
"Ying..."
Just then, Qing Lin, who was in Chen Yang's arms, whimpered softly and slowly opened her eyes. The moment the young girl saw her Young Lord, her uneasy heart instantly calmed down.
"Young Lord!" Qing Lin called out timidly.
"Qing Lin, be good. The bad guys have been chased away by your Young Lord, no need to be afraid!" Chen Yang reached out and stroked Qing Lin's head. After two months apart, Qing Lin had grown taller, and her already shapely figure had become even more curvaceous, perfectly inheriting the seductive posture of the Snake People. In another year or two, she would be a Great Beauty with Innate Charm.
"Qing Lin isn't afraid of bad guys; Qing Lin is just afraid of being captured by bad guys and never seeing Young Lord again." Chen Yang was, arguably, the only light in the young girl's heart. If she lost the chance to be by Chen Yang's side, she would surely grieve herself to death.
"It's alright. Qing Lin will never leave Young Lord again!" Chen Yang said, reaching out to place Qing Lin on the back of the Amethyst Winged Lion King. Then, he turned to look at the two groups, totaling four people, flying in from different directions.
One of them was quite familiar to Chen Yang—he even knew where the moles were on her body—it was Xiao Yi Xian. Beside her was a Dou King expert, likely Teng Shan of the Mittel Family.
The other two were flying side-by-side. One wore a plain yellow outfit, with white hair and a youthful face, and had a pair of earthy yellow Dou Qi Wings on his back. The other wore an alchemist robe, with a Fifth-Grade Alchemist Badge pinned to his chest, and red Dou Qi Wings on his back. They were Jia Xingtian and Fa Ma, arriving late.
"Hmph! This Jia Xingtian is getting more timid the older he gets!" Seeing Jia Xingtian's late arrival, Hai Bodong snorted coldly, clearly looking down on this Peak Dou Huang elder of the Imperial Family.
"It looks like the powers of the Jia Ma Empire need a reshuffle..." Chen Yang watched Jia Xingtian and Fa Ma coldly. These two old fogeys were Fence-Sitters in the Original Plot, and it served them right that the Cloud Mist Sect had suppressed them for so many years, preventing them from ever rising up.
"If Young Lord intends to undertake a great endeavor, Hai Bodong is willing to lead the charge!" If Hai Bodong's previous all-in bet on Chen Yang was partly for personal gain, now it was entirely driven by loyalty.
A Dou Zong expert who is only twenty years old, possesses a Heavenly Flame, and even has a Dou Sheng Background—who the hell wouldn't go all-in on him?
At this moment, Xiao Yan also looked at the two men, communicating with Venerable Yao in his heart.
Venerable Yao found Fa Ma slightly familiar but couldn't recall where he had seen him before.
Of course, Venerable Yao was currently immersed in the Volcanic Stone Flame that Chen Yang controlled. As a member of the Medicine Clan and the continent's renowned Venerable Yao, he naturally knew where the Volcanic Stone Flame had appeared.
"Could this Chen Yang be a member of the Yan Clan? This Yan Yang sounds... off," Venerable Yao didn't know exactly what was wrong with Yan Yang, but he just felt that something was amiss.
Throwing this sense of unease to the back of his mind, Venerable Yao was now even more convinced that Chen Yang's Cultivation and Alchemy Skill were under a Seal. Otherwise, why would he use Beast Fire for Alchemy when he clearly possessed a Heavenly Flame? Could it be that this guy really predicted that Queen Medusa would evolve into the Seven-Colored Sky Swallowing Python?
"The Heavenly Serpent Mansion made a move in the Jia Ma Imperial Capital, yet these two Dou Huang experts only show up now... Heh heh, it would be strange if your Brother Yang wasn't angry!" Venerable Yao chuckled, having a mind to Enjoy the Show. He was also someone who liked causing trouble when he was young, otherwise, how could he and Xiao Yan be Birds of a Feather?
"It's good that Brother Yang is doing this. The Xiao Family will be relocating to the Imperial Capital soon. Being able to deter these forces in the Imperial Capital will greatly benefit the Xiao Family!" Xiao Yan immediately prepared to step forward and help.
Venerable Yao nodded in satisfaction. Although Xiao Yan was not yet eighteen, his Heart-Nature in all aspects already possessed the Heart of an Expert... At this moment, Jia Xingtian and Fa Ma saw Chen Yang standing in the air, and their hearts immediately sank.
"Old Jia, you've really harmed me! You said the other party didn't damage the Jia Ma Holy City and that they might have a Stronger Power behind them. Now look, the Little Girl from the Mittel Family who was kidnapped has a Dou Zong expert supporting her!" Fa Ma looked at Jia Xingtian with a bitter expression.
"How would I know!" Fa Ma was also flustered internally, and at the same time, he cursed Hai Bodong fiercely. Since this Dog returned, why didn't he tell him about the Dou Zong expert behind him? If he had known earlier, he would have risked his old life to keep that woman!
Hesitating, the two flew slower and slower. Instead, Xiao Yi Xian and Miteer Tengshan arrived first.
"Old Hai!"
"Young Miss Qing Lin, are you alright?"
Teng Shan looked at Qing Lin and asked with concern.
"Thank you, Uncle Teng Shan, I'm fine. Young Lord saved me!" Qing Lin sat on the Amethyst Winged Lion King, smiling as she looked at Teng Shan.
"Teng Shan, come, let me introduce you. This is Young Lord Chen Yang!" Hai Bodong looked at his Junior, smiling as he led him to Chen Yang and introduced him.
"Greetings, Young Lord Chen Yang!" Teng Shan was greatly shocked when he saw Chen Yang.
