Starting as a supporting character in Doupo

The battle within the ruins had already depleted most of his mental energy and fighting spirit. Although he recovered quickly, he was far from being fully restored to his original state in such a short time.

Moreover, Blood River, at the fourth level of Dou Zun realm, wouldn't give Xiao Fan much time to prepare. It was simply impossible for him to condense a six-colored fire lotus to deal with him like before.

"Don't hesitate, you'd better come with me obediently!"

The Blood River Venerable's gaze fell on Xiao Fan, making Xiao Fan feel as if he had been blindfolded and experiencing waves of pressure.

"As for you..."

Blood River Venerable narrowed his eyes, his gaze falling on Xun'er, a hint of killing intent flashing in his eyes. However, in the end, fearing the power of the ancient clan, he did not choose to make a move.

"I don't have the habit of surrendering easily!"

Xiao Fan's gaze fell on Venerable Xuehe. He slowly raised his head, a sickly smile appearing on his pale face.

"Ok?"

Blood River's gaze fell on Xiao Fan, a hint of doubt on his face. As a powerful warrior of the Four Battle Venerables, he was confident that no matter what methods Xiao Fan used, he could bring him back to the Soul Palace.

Even if it weren't for capturing Xiao Fan alive and bringing him back to the Soul Palace, killing Xiao Fan, a fourth-level Dou Zun, would only require one move.

So when he saw Xiao Fan trying to resist, a hint of surprise flashed in his eyes. However, he didn't make the slightest move.

Chapter 267 Ancient Clan's Assistance (Fifth Update)

"Suppression!"

The Blood River Venerable spoke slowly, his icy voice echoing between heaven and earth.

As the Blood River Venerable finished speaking, a fierce, bloody aura filled the air.

Suddenly, it erupted from his body, and then the crimson energy in the sky converged, transforming into a massive blood-red phantom.

A crimson river swirled in mid-air, enveloping Xiao Fan and the others, forming a massive energy vortex above their heads.

Sensing the attack from Blood River Venerable, Xiao Fan and the others, along with the four ancient clan Dou Zun behind Xun'er, launched a joint counterattack. The terrifying power of the Pig City Dou Sheng enveloped the sky.

However, under the suppression of the crimson river, their attacks had no effect whatsoever. They were directly shattered layer by layer by the crimson river and turned into surging energy in mid-air.

The force that had been interfering with their counterattack was so easily shattered by the blood-red river. Those outside the school were shocked, realizing the difference in strength between themselves and the Blood River Venerable.

Xiao Fan looked up at the Blood River Venerable in mid-air, his eyes filled with resentment.

The opponent's terrifying power gathered above their heads, and even the combined efforts of several Dou Zun could not stop the blood-red river in the slightest.

Just as the blood-red river was pressing down on Xiao Fan and Xun'er, a cold snort suddenly rang out from the sky.

"Hmph! The Soul Palace's lapdogs dare to extend their claws over my clan?"

As the chilling sound spread downwards, it suddenly coalesced in mid-air, and the river of blood threads that had been falling towards Xiao Fan and the others disintegrated layer by layer in mid-air.

With just a single sentence, the attack launched by a powerful Sichuan Dou Zun was so easily shattered that everyone was utterly astonished by the strength of the newcomer.

"Grandpa Chen!"

However, Xun'er, who was standing next to Xiao Fan, showed a hint of joy on her face when she heard the old voice and spoke towards the sky.

Just as Xun'er finished speaking, an old figure appeared on their desk. He was wearing a white robe, his aged face was full of anger, and his eyes were like two deep pools that were unfathomable. When you looked into his eyes, you couldn't help but be drawn into them.

However, when he heard Xun'er's voice, the person who turned to look at Xun'er had a kind smile on his face.

The old man, whom Xun'er called Grandpa Chen, turned around and gave Xun'er a kind look. He paused slightly on Xiao Fan and Xiao Ying, nodded gently, and then looked at the Blood River Venerable of the Soul Palace in front of him again.

At this moment, the composure on the face of Venerable Blood River in mid-air had vanished, and a hint of emotion appeared on his face as he looked at the ancient clan expert who had appeared in front of him.

His opponent's strength was not much different from his own, and if they really fought, it was still unknown who would win.

But since this old guy has appeared, it means that the other side probably still has a backup plan. It seems that they won't be able to deal with this Xiao family brat today.

The Blood River Venerable's gaze fell upon Xiao Fan and Xiao Yan, his tone icy:

"Since the Xiao family brat is like this, I'll let you prolong your lives for a while longer."

"Be bold!"

The old man, whom Xun'er called Grandpa Chen, showed a hint of anger on his face when he heard the arrogant words of Venerable Blood River.

After all, he was standing here protecting Xiao Fan and the others, but the people from the Soul Palace didn't take him seriously at all.

With a wave of his hand, Gu Chen unleashed a terrifying surge of battle energy, like a tidal wave crashing forward.

Upon seeing this, Venerable Blood River's eyes flashed, and a crimson wave emerged from around him, colliding with the attack launched by Gu Chen.

The clash between the two powerful figures filled the air with a terrifying aura. Those within the Bone Mountain Range had long since prostrated themselves on the ground, filled with dread.

By this time, they understood why all the major forces that had escaped from the Dou Sheng Ruins had immediately left the Haigu Mountains.

It's likely that the other party anticipated this outcome, which is why they left this troublesome place early on.

They're the only ones still standing here foolishly, trying to snag a bargain.

Now it seems like I'm lucky to have survived.

However, the attacks from the two powerful figures did not unleash terrifying energy fluctuations as they had imagined; instead, they vanished into nothingness upon contact.

No, it didn't damage the terrain above the skeletons or cause harm to anyone.

"Humph!"

Under everyone's watchful eyes, in mid-air, Grandpa Chen unleashed waves of battle aura, like a tidal wave, rushing forward one after another, while Blood River Venerable's resistance gradually contracted around his body as the tide spread.

Finally, with a clear sound, the tide filled the entire sky, and the Blood River Venerable snorted coldly and disappeared completely into the air.

"Grandpa Chen is awesome!"

Xun'er looked at the departing Xuehe Venerable, a charming smile appearing on her face. She gave a playful smile towards the sky and spoke.

"Hehe, you little rascal!"

Grandpa Chen took a step forward and instantly appeared in front of Xun'er and the others. Seeing the smile on Xun'er's face, a doting smile appeared on his own.

"Greetings, senior! Thank you for saving my life!"

Xiao Fan and Xiao Yan looked at the old man who had appeared before them with a respectful expression, and hurriedly bowed to him and spoke.

"Not bad! You two, the Xiao family has successors."

Grandpa Chen's gaze fell on Xiao Fan and Xiao Yan, and he was surprised to see their current strength and aura.

"It's just a pity that the Xiao family's bloodline power..."

A hint of regret flashed in Grandpa Chen's eyes, but no one heard him say it.

However, those familiar with the plot naturally knew that everyone believed the Xiao family's bloodline power had been exhausted.

After all, when Xiao Xuan was trying to become a Dou Di, he made a desperate gamble, hoping to gather all the Dou Di bloodline of the entire Xiao family into himself.

It was precisely because Xiao Xuan failed to advance to the Dou Di realm that the Xiao family declined. Without the support of the Dou Di bloodline, the talents of the Xiao family disciples naturally diminished.

However, Xiao Fan also knew that as long as he entered the Ancient Clan's Sky Curtain, the backup plan left by Xiao Xuan could be activated, and he would be able to replace his bloodline.

However, Xiao Fan did not intend to possess the bloodline power within the ancient clan's celestial veins. He intended to leave it for Xiao Yan, and as for himself, Xiao Fan believed that with the existence of the system, becoming a Dou Di would not be difficult for him.

"Alright, now that things are resolved, let's leave. After all, we're still in the midst of an imperial decree. If we drag this out any longer, and those old guys from the Heavenly Demon Royal Family come, I won't be able to protect you."

Grandpa Chen looked at everyone, nodded slightly, and then with a wave of his hand, a pale blue energy enveloped them. They transformed into streaks of light and sped rapidly towards the horizon.

Not long after everyone left, the sounds coming from the Dou Sheng Ruins did not end. Then, to the horror of the many powerful figures, the Dou Sheng Ruins once again fell into the spatial reverse flow, and no one knew where they went.

The powerful figures waiting in the Bone Mountain Range looked at the turbulent Battle God Ruins and the various forces departing in the sky, and a look of horror appeared on their faces.

No one expected that so many things would happen in the ruins of the God of War.

Especially when the Four Heavenly Venerables of the Soul Palace make a move.

Despite possessing the strength of a fourth-level Dou Zun, he wanted to keep Xiao Fan and the others, but in the end, he still let them leave.

Everyone speculated about the identity of the white-haired old man who finally appeared. However, those who knew Gu Chen's identity would not say much, and those who did not know could only speculate.

Ultimately, the question of Gu Chen's identity was left unresolved.

Immediately following, the discussion revolved around one person: Xiao Fan.

After all, besides the major forces, there were also some daring and powerful individuals who entered the Dou Sheng Ruins.

As word spread, the events that occurred within the Dou Sheng Ruins gradually disappeared. The news spread throughout the entire Central Continent.

As for who will ultimately claim the Heavenly Rank Battle Skill, no one knows.

After all, with so many forces having acquired the ten scrolls, no one would be foolish enough to tell everyone that they had obtained a Heaven-Rank Battle Technique.

However, Xiao Fan, who stirred up the storm, was none other than the most talked-about figure in this Dou Sheng Ruins incident.

Xiao Fan's battle with Huang Luo inside the Dou Sheng Ruins demonstrated his terrifying power to everyone.

A powerful cultivator at the second stage of combat was attacked by Xiao Fan and ultimately fell into the void, his fate unknown.

Such terrifying combat power—if it weren't for a group of experts among the best in their field, who would believe it?

"Is this the power of a strange fire? A nine-star Dou Zun's strength is actually able to fight a second-stage Dou Zun to the death. It's truly terrifying!"

"Xiao Fan's true strength is only a six-star Dou Zun, right? So, is it really possible that he, with the strength of a six-star Dou Zun, fought against such terrifying combat power from a second-stage Dou Zun Tianya Huang Clan expert?"

.........

The outside discussions did not affect our protagonist, Xiao Fan, at all.

After escorting Xiao Fan and his group out of the Beast Domain, Gu Chen of the Ancient Clan disappeared.
