Chapter 270: Gu Clan's Visitors

These words were extremely resonant, echoing throughout the entire cave.

Upon hearing them, Medusa looked towards Xiao Ming. She hadn't anticipated that the visitor was seeking him out and that they had even discovered the new settlement of her tribe.

'Looking for me?' Xiao Ming frowned, but then gradually relaxed.

Even though it was a bit unusual for someone to be looking for him, it didn't matter. The person was already outside, and he couldn't avoid them.

"Let's go out and take a look." With that, Xiao Ming took the lead and walked out of the cave.

"Hmph, I want to see who dares to mess with us!" Zi Yan controlled her newly acquired toy, wrinkled her nose, and followed Xiao Ming's footsteps.

Medusa and Xiao Yi Xian naturally followed closely behind. As they emerged from the cave, it shook violently a few times.

...

Outside the cave, many Snake-People who were capable of transforming their Dou Qi into wings were viciously shot down from the sky, raising a large amount of dust upon impact.

Recognizing several of them, it was none other than Yin Shi and his group.

"Ugh!" Yin Shi spat out a large mouthful of blood, angrily staring at the black spots in the sky.

Those black spots were not human figures but rather more than ten beasts with jet-black bodies and a silver horn that was many meters long on top of their heads. The horns were covered in strange patterns, and there was even a faint sound of wind and thunder emanating from them. The beasts had large wings on their backs, which, when flapped, created a strong wind that whipped up sand and dust in the area.

Yin Shi had never seen or heard of these unfamiliar creatures, but he sensed an extremely fierce aura emanating from their bodies. These auras were even stronger than his own, indicating that these beasts were not just ordinary transport creatures, but rather a type of flying combat creature.

Flying beasts were already rare, and those used for combat were even rarer. Only powerful forces had the ability to raise and tame them.

To be honest, Yin Shi and his group didn't want to get into a conflict with these people, but these people acted as if they were invincible and wanted to intrude into their Snake-People stronghold. Pushed to a corner, they had no choice but to resist. But they never expected to be defeated in just a few moves.

However, at least these people no longer intended to enter their stronghold.

"First General, I never expected to find Snake-People in this North-Western Region. However, compared to the Snake-People of the Nine Serene Deep Ground Python Tribe, these ones seem a bit weak," said a young man to a slightly younger companion in the sky.

"These Snake-People are indeed inferior to those of the Nine Serene Deep Ground Python Tribe. They must have migrated here from the Beast Region countless years ago," Gu Qingyang replied with indifference while looking down at the Snake-People below.

The young man beside him nodded in agreement and asked, "By the way, First General, is Xiao Ming's strength as exaggerated as Miss said? Is it true that he's already a Dou Emperor at such a young age? You are only a Dou Emperor yourself, and your talent is second only to Miss in our Clan."

"Xun'er has no reason to lie," Gu Qingyang expressed his view. "However, no matter how outstanding his strength may be, we must still complete the task entrusted to us by the Elders. Often, one's level does not necessarily represent their combat power," he continued indifferently.

The young man next to him nodded in agreement. Xiao Ming came from the North-Western Region and probably didn't have any exceptional technique. Even if his realm was higher, it wouldn't necessarily give him an advantage against them.

After all, they were from the Gu Clan, and Gu Qingyang in front of him was a strong candidate to be the next Black Submerged King of the Black Submerged Army and possessed an unknown number of high-class Dou Techniques.

"They're coming out." Gu Qingyang said as he noticed a young man and several young women walking out from the underground cave below.

"Is that Xiao Ming? His strength... seems even more exaggerated than what Xun'er said!" he exclaimed.

Because Xun'er had mentioned that Xiao Ming had an exceptional appearance, Gu Qingyang could recognize him as the handsome young man standing in front of the group. However, he couldn't see through Xiao Ming's strength.

Down below, Xiao Ming saw Yin Shi's group sitting on the ground with torn and injured clothing. Then, his gaze shifted to the backs of the peculiar four-winged unicorns in the sky. On each unicorn's back stood a figure wearing a set of purple-black robes with an expressionless face. Their eyes flickered slightly, sharp as blades, sending shivers down one's spine. Almost every figure possessed a strength beyond that of a Dou Emperor.

The youngest one among them, who was on the unicorn's head, led the group.

At the sight of her tribe members injured, Medusa's eyes blazed with anger.

"Damn, these people...!" Just as she was about to fly up to confront them, Xiao Ming held her shoulder firmly.

"Don't go up there, you're no match for them."

"But..."

"No buts. They won't fight you one-on-one, and besides, you can't afford to offend them."

Upon seeing their attire, Xiao Ming immediately knew who had come looking for him.

'Members of the Gu Clan. I just don't know which talented individual from the Gu Clan it is. Could it be Ling Quan? Doesn't seem like it.'

Hearing Xiao Ming's words, Medusa's ample bosom heaved up and down, but she also understood that what Xiao Ming said was the truth.

Ignoring Medusa, Xiao Ming lifted his foot and suddenly disappeared from his original location. When he reappeared, he was already in front of Gu Qingyang and the others.

"Are you looking for me?"

"Are you Xiao Ming?" With a serious expression on his face, Gu Qingyang looked at Xiao Ming, who was about the same age as him. When Xiao Ming appeared earlier, he had a sense of unease.

Now, Xiao Ming suddenly flashed in front of him without using his wings to levitate in the void. How could he be a Dou Emperor? He must be a Dou Ancestor! A 17-year-old Dou Ancestor, even the current Gu Clan doesn't have one! He never expected that the fallen Xiao Clan would have such a genius!

Shocked, Gu Qingyang's tone became slightly more polite.

"I am the First General of the Black Submerged Army, Gu Qingyang."

"The Black Submerged Army? The Black Submerged Army of the Gu Clan in the Central Plains?"

"You seem to know quite a bit." Gu Qingyang was slightly surprised to hear that Xiao Ming knew about their Black Submerged Army.

"Well, I am at least a seventh-tier Alchemist. It's not abnormal to know a bit more, is it?" Xiao Ming remained calm and revealed his seventh-tier Alchemist strength.

Being a seventh-tier Alchemist alone was not impressive, but being a young seventh-tier Alchemist with the strength of a Dou Ancestor would signify great potential. Moreover, as a seventh-tier Alchemist, he was considered a mid-level force in the Pill Tower, so knowing more was normal.

"Hehe, I didn't expect Brother Xiao Ming to be a seventh-tier Alchemist as well." Gu Qingyang pursed his lips, feeling that this mission was quite tricky. Alchemists were good at soul attacks and coupled with Xiao Ming's own strength, it would be extremely difficult for them to get the Tou She Ancient God's Jade from him.
