The fear of cultivating immortals comes from insufficient firepower

Hearing this, Yan Huo was completely stunned.

He really didn't expect that Li Xiaofan would be so loyal.

After all, the two of them were just a transaction.

Li Xiaofan bribed him with spirit stones, and he introduced Li Xiaofan to Yan Huajiao.

He even felt worried and jealous because Li Xiaofan's performance was so outstanding.

I never thought that true friendship is revealed in times of adversity, and the other party was willing to sacrifice himself to repay my support.

Thinking of this, Yan Huo burst into tears: "Friend Hu, oh no, Brother Hu! You are the most upright and loyal person I have ever met in my life. Please accept my greetings!"

As he said this, Yan Huo was about to salute Li Xiaofan, but was stopped by Li Xiaofan.

"My lord, you must not do that. The people below are about to catch up with us."

"You'd better leave quickly. If you can return alive, you must tell His Holiness."

"Wan Ruhuo is extremely cruel and tortured the young master to death. I want you to avenge him."

After saying that, Li Xiaofan pushed Yanhuo upwards fiercely as if he had made up his mind.

He turned around and rushed towards the person who was chasing him.

Seeing this, Yan Huo now completely remembered Li Xiaofan, a man of unparalleled loyalty and righteousness.

Li Xiaofan rushed forward and started fighting with the opponent, but was soon pierced through the body by several swords.

Yanhuo gritted his teeth, began to burn his blood and essence, and flew upwards desperately to escape.

Before leaving, he did not forget to shout: "Brother Hu, this steward will definitely persuade the Venerable to avenge you and the young master."

Soon, Yanhuo rushed out of the lake in the magic cave and went straight into the sky.

Only after the other party left did Li Xiaofan, who was floating alone in the water, smile and take back the Thousand Illusions Mirror.

Coincidentally, Tu Mingtang and a few others also ran over at this moment.

As soon as they met together, Tu Mingtang stretched out his hand and handed several storage bags to Li Xiaofan.

"Sir, this is Yan Huajiao's storage bag, and I also robbed a lot of spirit stones and treasures before."

Li Xiaofan thought about it and put dozens of treasure-sealing talismans on Yan Huajiao's storage bag to prevent anything inside from being tracked down by Master Huo Ji.

Even so, I'm still not very reassured.

He then put a few storage bags into the six iron boxes that contained the Mysterious Ice Spirit, and then put them away.

Seeing this, Tu Mingtang continued: "Sir, what should we do now? Should we leave or make other plans?"

Li Xiaofan thought for a moment and said, "The mission on this trip has almost been completed. There is no point in staying here any longer."

"Besides, everything that happened before is not flawless. If we run into those powerful gods again, we might be in danger."

"Next, we will return to Yunmeng Mountain with all our strength. After everything is arranged, we will set off immediately and return to our hometown!"

After saying that, Li Xiaofan did not forget to look at the sea and sky.

"Elder Haikong, you don't have to go back to Huanhai Sect this time. Come with us."

After hearing this, Haikong nodded although he felt a little reluctant.

Just like that, everyone did not stop and rushed to Yunmeng Mountain as fast as possible.

Just when Li Xiaofan and his companions were about to return, they were on the Huoji Mountain far up in the sky.

In a luxurious secret room, the majestic-looking Venerable Huo Ji suddenly opened his eyes, his eyes filled with anger.

"Ah!!! Wan Ruhuo, you are so brave, do you think that I won't dare to kill you just because you are her brother?"

After a while, Venerable Huo Ji calmed down a little and then spoke, but no one knew who he was talking to.

"Go check why Jiao Er is in the Demon Cave, and who followed him there?"

"Find those people and bring them back for questioning."

There was no one in the secret room, but a man's voice came from somewhere.

"Follow orders!!"

After the noise subsided, Venerable Huo Ji wanted to start practicing again.

But just as he entered into meditation, his eyes opened again.

After his face flushed rapidly, a trace of blood actually flowed from the corner of his mouth.

He wiped it with his hand, and Venerable Huo Ji's eyes were extremely cold.

“Humph, I never thought that the devil’s desperate magical power was so powerful. It’s been such a long time, and I still can’t recover!”

After saying this, Venerable Huo Ji clenched his fists fiercely.

"Humph, I wonder if the other guys are gloating over this after learning about it?"

However, just as Venerable Huo Ji was talking to himself, the next moment, a strange voice sounded in his mind.

"Fellow Daoist, do you hate those people? Why not just get rid of them, and you can become the true master of the sacred mountain..."

Upon hearing this voice, Venerable Huo Ji was horrified.

"Who? Who are you?"

Outsiders naturally have no idea what happens in the secret room.

However, less than a few days later, a person was brought outside the secret room where Master Huo Ji was practicing.

This person was none other than Yan Huo who had escaped from the devil's cave.

As soon as he was brought here, Yan Huo fell to his knees with a thud.

Before Venerable Huo Ji could open his mouth to ask, Yan Huo started crying and sobbing.

"Your Excellency, wuwuwu...you must avenge my son..."

Venerable Huoji naturally knew about Yan Huo, as he was the one who had been scouting Yan Huajiao.

Not wanting to waste time at this moment, he asked through the door.

"Yanhuo, I want to ask you, why did Jiao'er go to the Demon Cave, and why did Wan Ruhuo kill him?"

Upon hearing the question, Yan Huo immediately replied, "Your Excellency, I don't have enough cultivation resources. I heard there are treasures under the Demon Cave, so I plan to get some."

"After they got to the underground, Wan Ruhuo beat the young master to death without any reason."

Upon hearing this, although Venerable Huo Ji was angry, he still suppressed his anger and continued to ask.

"Then let me ask you, did Wan Ruhuo know the identity of the young master before he killed him?"

Yan Huo thought about it for a while, and then said, "I'm not sure about this, but I guess Wan Ruhuo actually knows."

The Fire Supreme's eyes narrowed: "Oh, why?"

Yanhuo: "Although the young master was wearing a mask at the time, when Wan Ruhuo killed someone, another subordinate beside the young master had already revealed his identity."

"But Wan Ruhuo didn't hold back at all after hearing that. When he realized that he couldn't kill the young master with one blow, he immediately rushed forward and hit him with a second blow, which was a fatal blow. He didn't even give the young master a chance to say anything."

"It's obvious that his behavior is a way to silence people."

Upon hearing this, although Venerable Huoji had not yet completely believed Yanhuo's words, the seeds of doubt had already taken deep root.

There is no way, Wan Ruhuo’s identity is too sensitive.

Wan Ruhuo is Wan Ruyan's younger brother and Wan Wushi's uncle.

Wan Ruyan is the lover of Master Huoji, and Wan Wushi is his son.

However, although he was a son, he was just an illegitimate child, and Venerable Huo Ji never took him seriously.

Even the Blue Sky Flame on Wan Wushi's body was something that Wan Ruyan had requested for a long time before Venerable Huo Ji agreed to give him one.

At this moment, his son was killed by Wan Ruhuo. Venerable Huo Ji had reason to suspect that Wan Ruhuo was deliberately looking for an opportunity to kill his son and then support his nephew Wan Wushi to take the throne.

So as to tie myself up with it and gain greater benefits...
