Chapter 5290 is our master
When they returned, the Ancient God Realm was full of vitality, but now it is desolate.
Xiao Yan didn't dare to ask immediately, while Ran Chang and Ye Feiyu turned to look at him.
"Junior Brother, why don't you go back to the Xiao residence first?"
"Alright." Xiao Yan clasped his hands in a fist and bowed.
Unlike previous returns, the entire Ancient God Realm was filled with an aura of death.
This is inevitable in war. Charging into battle leads to the deaths of countless strong warriors. They were not alone; they had friends and loved ones.
Leaving is easy; the sadness is left to those who remain.
This will be brutal. For the sake of Shenxi and to protect the world they live in, all living beings must rise up and fight!
Xiao Yan appeared outside the Xiao residence, but this time, there was no laughter or cheerful chatter coming from inside.
This actually made him a little nervous.
Stepping inside, one is met with complete silence.
The first person Xiao Yan saw was Zhen Ni, who was wearing a cheongsam. The moment she saw Xiao Yan, her delicate body trembled slightly.
"Husband!"
Jenny rushed forward and threw herself into Xiao Yan's arms; her cries soon filled the air.
"What's wrong? What happened?" Xiao Yan had a bad feeling.
"The Fearless Team has all gone to the front line. Some time ago, news spread that the East Transport Void they were guarding was under attack, and the situation was not optimistic."
Jenny nestled in Xiao Yan's arms like a kitten, tilting her head back as Xiao Yan wiped away her tears.
"What parts of the Xiao family residence still exist?"
Xiao Yan must remain calm. The Fearless Team truly deserves the title of "Fearless," for daring to fight means they have never been afraid in the slightest.
"Lang Tian, Le Shaolong, and Jing Wuchen, the rest have all gone to the front lines."
Xiao Yan smelled the rich fragrance of pills. The entire alchemy hall of the Ancient God Realm was frantically refining medicine to make up for the huge losses incurred in the war on the front lines.
"I understand, don't worry, everything will be alright."
Xiao Yan pulled Zhen Ni into his arms. She had been waiting, but was powerless to do anything.
After comforting Zhenni, Xiao Yan left the Xiao residence and headed to the Thousand Machines Pavilion, where Ran Chang and Ye Feiyu were already waiting.
As expected, the Empress was nowhere to be seen; the place was filled with portraits of Xiao Yan.
Ran Chang was holding a box and walked up to Xiao Yan after seeing him.
"Junior Brother, this was left by Her Majesty the Empress, who instructed us to personally deliver it to you."
Xiao Yan reached out and took it, then slowly opened it. Inside was a painting and a jade slip.
“Young Master Xiao Yan, you will have to walk the road ahead on your own.”
"This painting is for you, a pantheon of gods. If you ever encounter danger, it will help you. Do not look for me, we will meet again."
Xiao Yan's soul power swept over the jade slip in the exquisite wooden box, which contained two soul transmissions left by the Empress.
"Junior brother, do you know where Her Majesty the Empress went?"
At this moment, outside the Thousand Machines Pavilion, Mei Ling slowly walked in, followed by a beautiful figure, Yun Yun.
"Senior Brother Mei Ling, the jade slip left by the Empress didn't mention it. Did she just disappear suddenly?"
Xiao Yan frowned slightly, and bowed slightly upon seeing Mei Ling.
"Yes, the Queen didn't tell us that when she left, she only left this box and a note explaining the time and place of Junior Brother's return, and also that the box must be handed to you personally."
Ran Chang said, and then handed the note left by the Empress to Xiao Yan.
Taking the note and reading the information left on it, Xiao Yan instantly understood that the Empress's disappearance was not due to her being captured, but rather a relinquishment of power.
She was telling Xiao Yan that after his return, everything here would truly be in his hands.
"Who is in charge of the war now?" Xiao Yan asked.
“Since the Empress disappeared, we have been discussing and deciding on everything. Now that Junior Brother… no, now that His Excellency has returned, it is naturally your turn to make the decisions.”
Mei Ling took a small half-step back and clasped her hands in a fist salute.
Ran Chang and Ye Feiyu's gazes towards Xiao Yan also changed instantly.
"Greetings, Your Excellency!"
They no longer addressed Xiao Yan as "Junior Brother," but instead as "Your Excellency."
"Senior brothers, there's no need for that. I am not Your Excellency. Just call me Xiao Yan. I will need your guidance in the future."
Xiao Yan clasped his hands in a deep fist salute in return. Such a heavy burden had suddenly fallen on his shoulders; everything had happened too suddenly.
“We dare not. We addressed each other as senior brothers at Her Majesty the Empress’s request, but you are not our junior brother.”
"It was our former master!"
Mei Ling said in a deep voice. Xiao Yan's pupils shrank immediately. He really didn't know about this. After all, he didn't inherit any memories, so it was normal for him not to know.
"That was nine lifetimes ago. Now I am called Xiao Yan, the ninth-ranked junior brother, not some Venerable One. Now is not the time to argue about this. I want to know how the battle is going."
Xiao Yan said seriously that he did not want to dwell too much on the issue of his identity. The Empress's disappearance was urgent, and the war situation needed to be clarified.
"The Eastern Transport Void has fallen, and reinforcements are on their way. However, the Great Void is also launching a large-scale attack, which must be stopped in time. Otherwise, once they enter the Eastern Transport, they will quickly plunder resources and become the next Western Sea Void."
As Ye Feiyu spoke, he suddenly raised his hand, and a patch of light and shadow appeared, which was the star map of the Eastern Transport Void.
"Now the various voids have been completely severed. The Great Void spent a lot of time and found the flaw before it rebuilt the wormhole to enter the East Transport."
"How many powerful individuals do we have? Are we capable of suppressing them?" Xiao Yan frowned slightly.
"Of course, but there are also many powerful figures in the Great Void. Once they clash head-on, there will definitely be casualties."
"When the Empress was around, she tried to avoid battle as much as possible, but in reality, Shenxi's combat power was stronger than imagined."
"And the fifty thousand immortal-level powerhouses that Master brought from the Ancient Realm of Immortals and Demons are also ready to go and have enough combat power to suppress them!"
Mei Ling's voice continued to emanate as she looked directly at Xiao Yan, whose eyes were now filled with intense fighting spirit.
"War is inevitable."
"Her Majesty the Queen is buying me time. Even though I am still not strong enough, I cannot back down any longer, and I cannot give up on the Eastern Transport."
"If we back down, it means that countless lives will be destroyed and die tragically once again. We must defend the Eastern Transport Terminal no matter what!"
Xiao Yan said in a deep voice, "Now that he has returned, the Empress has entrusted everything to him."
Therefore, he cannot hesitate; he must act decisively and resolutely.
"However, in Shenxi, we must try every means to fight against this group of Taixu with the least sacrifice."
When Mei Ling heard that Xiao Yan was willing to accept the challenge, her eyes immediately lit up.
"Taixu thinks that I, Shenxi, am too weak and do not need complicated tactics. Right now, the best approach is to catch me like a turtle in a jar."
"Most of the Taixu warriors at that time were soulless. Killing them was pointless. We need to find a way to lure out some big fish..."
Xiao Yan continued speaking, and all eyes in the Thousand Machines Pavilion were focused on him.
