A smile appeared on Huoyun Jie’s face as soon as he heard the explosive sound. He was certain Yun Lintian should be reduced to ashes by now.
The Huoyun sisters were no exception. They understood the terror of the white mist formation more than anyone else. Otherwise, how could it protect their ancestral land until now?
“No….” Droplets of tear gradually flowed out of Huoyun Lingling’s eyes. She regretted it. She shouldn’t have brought Yun Lintian along in the first place.
Meanwhile, Huoyun Yanyan glared at Huoyun Jie furiously. She took out her short sword and didn’t hesitate to attack the latter.
Huoyun Jie casually avoided her attack and released his power to restrain both Huoyun Yanyan and Huoyun Lingling. “We will talk about it later. It’s time to go back.”
Following that, he turned around and brought the Huoyun sisters away.
Amidst the white mist, Yun Lintian was still shuttling back and forth, avoiding the fire torrents. Whenever he found a way to go, the fire torrent seemed to have its own spirit, as it immediately appeared to block the path, preventing Yun Lintian from going forward.
“Big Brother Yun, let’s break it together!” Linlin said in a deep voice. She was furious and couldn’t wait to teach Huoyun Jie a lesson. How could he dare to harm her Big Brother Yun?
Yun Lintian patted Linlin’s head and said calmly. “Do not move rashly. Big brother can feel other threats behind this. Let’s observe it first. Anyway, it cannot harm us.”
Although the situation he was in wasn’t good, it wasn’t bad either. Yun Lintian could avoid the fire torrents at ease with his Shadow Step. It’s just that he could not move forward.
“Wise choice. This kind of natural formation usually has many mechanisms in it. Perhaps it would trigger when you start attacking.” Hongyue said casually.
Yun Lintian kept avoiding the fire torrents for a few minutes and still couldn’t find a way out. He also noticed that the number of fire torrents gradually increased. It won’t be long before they fill the entire space at this rate.
“It seems there’s no other choice.” Yun Lintian shook his head in dissatisfaction. If possible, he didn’t want to use The Sun at all.
As he came to a decision, Yun Lintian didn’t hesitate further, and a crimson light instantly lit up in the depth of his eyes.
At this moment, the actively moving fire energy around him became stagnated all of a sudden. All the fire torrents appeared and suspended in the air as though time was frozen.
Yun Lintian didn’t think further and quickly moved forward until he got out of the white mist.
As soon as Yun Lintian appeared outside the white mist, he was immediately greeted by a warm breeze that carried a trace of fire energy. He halted his movement and scanned the vicinity with caution.
The place Yun Lintian was standing on right now was highly arid and desolate. The ground beneath his feet was red and full of cracks. Naturally, there was no vegetation for him to see. He immediately understood why the Huoyun sisters had to go out to find a herb. It was impossible to grow anything here.
In the far distance, a colossal volcano stood tall, emitting white mist to fill the sky. With a glance, Yun Lintian could see this volcano was about to die. The fire energy in this place wasn’t as much as he perceived in the white mist earlier. It was no wonder the Huoyun sisters’ progress was so slow.
While Yun Lintian observed the place, a few figures appeared above him. They were two men and a woman. Their heights were not much different from Huoyun Jie, as well as their strength.
“Who are you!?” The woman asked in a deep voice. As she asked, she was extremely shocked in her heart because she discovered the person before her was human. Furthermore, this human could actually pass the white mist formation that even the patriarchs of other clans could not achieve.
Meanwhile, the other two men locked their Spiritual Senses firmly on Yun Lintian, preventing him from escaping.
Yun Lintian glanced at them and nodded inwardly. Before coming here, he thought that there weren’t many Monarchs left in the Fire Cloud Rat Clan, but the three Monarchs before him proved otherwise.
Yun Lintian cupped his fists and said politely. “This Junior named Mu Chen. I was brought here by Sister Lingling and Sister Yanyan. If you don’t believe me, you can contact them.”
The woman frowned and secretly contacted Huoyun Jie. The news of the Huoyun sisters returning had already spread throughout the entire clan earlier. However, she didn’t see or hear anything about a human boy.
A moment later, Huoyun Jie appeared on the scene. He squinted his eyes as he stared at Yun Lintian with incredulity… How could he still be alive?
Seeing Huoyun Jie, Yun Lintian smiled faintly and said meaningfully. “It’s been a while, Senior. Thank you for taking care of me all the way here.”
Huoyun Jie’s lips twitched. He gave a fierce glare at Yun Lintian and said with a trace of anger. “You should leave.”
“Leave? Why should I leave?” Yun Lintian’s brows raised slightly. “Senior, you’ve invited me here, and now you wanted me to leave? What’s going on here? I don’t understand.”
Huoyun Jie was so angry. This human boy was actually pretending to be stupid. When he opened his mouth and was about to say something, two figures suddenly flew in this direction at breakneck speed.
“Senior! Are you okay?” Huoyun Lingling and Huoyun Yanyan exclaimed in surprise. They heaved a sigh of relief in the next moment upon seeing Yun Lintian was fine.
Yun Lintian nodded gently with a smile. “Thankfully, I’ve followed both of you closely. Otherwise, I would have become ashes by now.” .𝘤𝑜𝑚
The expressions of the Huoyun sisters weren’t good upon hearing this. Huoyun Lingling hurriedly bowed her head. “I’m sorry, Senior. Everything is my fault. However, please trust me. I have no intention of harming Senior.”
The three people looked at Huoyun Lingling with their eyes widened open. They couldn’t believe the dignified Little Miss was bowing to the human boy… What the hell was going on here?
