Southern Region.
Mountain range, Pure Cloud Sect.
In the inner periphery of the Pure Cloud Mountain range, there were a total of 97 majestic and precipitous mountain peaks that pierced through the clouds. These were the true inheritance peaks of Pure Cloud Sect.
Each true inheritance peak was dedicated to a true disciple.
It was worth mentioning that not long ago, Ah Chou, who had relied on Evil Hero Huang Taiyuan to forcefully raise to the true qi boundary with external forces and medicines, had now become a true disciple of Pure Cloud Sect. He also obtained a true inheritance peak, with hundreds of servant girls and hundreds of servants.
These true inheritance peaks were very tranquil, unaffected by the weather of the outside world, like spring all year round.
The peaks were wreathed in mist, green trees entwined with green vines, flowing water, waterfalls, and colorful springs. There were many Immortal Apes, Immortal Cranes, Tigers, Lions, and Unicorns, walking up and down the mountains, not afraid of people.
It really was a beautiful immortal root, the scenery magnificent.
On one of the true inheritance peaks, there were hundreds of beautiful flowers and hundreds of thousands of medicinal herbs, and many spiritual beasts were dancing in joy. A dragon-like stone staircase rose from the foot of the mountain, winding upwards, towering into the clouds, directly leading to the countless palaces and pavilions at the top of the mountain.
It was late autumn, yellow leaves drifted down, and everywhere was a scene of the end of autumn. However, the trees on this True Inheritance Peak were verdant and lush, with rosy clouds surging everywhere, and flowing springs and waterfalls, it was a scene of an immortal paradise.
This true inheritance peak belonged to a senior true disciple of Pure Cloud Sect, 'Wu Xi'.
This' Wu Xi 'had already stepped into the true qi boundary more than a hundred years ago. He was considered an all-powerful genius, and was once famous in several large sects of the Southern Region.
But he was not a Evil Hero, but after a few cycles of cultivation, he was now at the peak of the fifth level of true qi. He was only one step away from opening the meridian. Of course, whether he could take this step was still unknown.
But he was respected in Jianghu, and had killed many Demon Race in his life.
Night.
The bright moon hung high in the sky, the watery moonlight sprinkling on the mountain peak.
In the pavilion, several pretty servants were brewing tea and serving exquisite pastries, attentively serving.
Wu Xi and several other true disciples of Pure Cloud Sect were admiring the moon.
"Ah... Senior Brother Wu, the world changes, the winds and clouds change unpredictably. We never thought that there would be such a genius in our Pure Cloud Sect.
Moreover, this genius was born as a living target, and he had to fight his way up step by step.
It's truly a rare sight. "A middle-aged Confucian scholar smiled faintly as his entire body glowed with treasured light.
"Senior Brother Xiao Han is already the leading figure of the new generation of our Pure Maiden Sect. He's so young, but he's already accomplished such a great feat in the Devil Hero Realm. Even the Azure Dragon Demon Emperor, the leader of the Demon Clan, was killed by Senior Brother Xiao Han. Tsk tsk …"
Wu Xi was also a middle-aged man. His expression was very capable, and in his eyes was a wise and farsighted light.
"There were signs of Senior Brother Xiao Han's rise, and it wasn't sudden.
If you think about it carefully, you will understand. This year's Devil Hero Trial is known as the cruelest, most difficult, and highest death rate in the history of the Devil Hero Circle.
To think that Senior Brother Xiao Han would be able to suppress everyone in a competition of this level and make a name for himself. With the aura of being the number one, he became the Demon Hero of this selection. No one would be willing to accept him, and no one would be able to compete with him … Hahahaha, let me tell you, in the future, Senior Brother Xiao Han will become more and more powerful. His luck will cover the sky, his name will shake the mountains and rivers, and he will become an ancestor! "
The other core disciples nodded.
"Yes, the rise of Senior Brother Xiao Han is also the rise of our Pure Cloud Sect.
Sect Master and Eldest Senior Brother are people who have the ability to cover the sky, but they are too indifferent to fame and fortune, and stand aloof from worldly affairs. They are too low-key. Therefore, our Pure Cloud Sect has always been neither strong nor weak among the top five sects of Beacon Fire Empire.
Senior Brother Xiao Han is a person who strives for success, dares to fight, and has a fiery temper. When Senior Brother Xiao Han takes control of the Pure Cloud Sect, I'm afraid that our Pure Cloud Sect will directly suppress the other major sects. "A yellow-robed man said with a smile.
"That's right, I heard from Senior Brother Dongfang that Senior Brother Xiao Han has also returned to the Pure Cloud Sect. Why don't we find a time to visit Senior Brother Xiao Han?
What do you think? "A beautiful woman in red said.
Wu Xi smiled and shook his head.
"No.
This time, Senior Brother Xiao Han did not make a fuss when he returned. Obviously, he does not want us to disturb him. He also wants peace and quiet. We should not rashly disturb Senior Brother Xiao Han's mood … Besides, Senior Brother Xiao Han has just gotten married … Haha, I won't say it, you all understand. "
The beautiful woman in red chuckled.
"Senior Brother Xiao Han is hot-blooded, these few days, I'm afraid … he will not be able to get out of bed …"
"Hahahahaha …"
"That's right, Senior Brother Wu, you've taken special care of Junior Brother Ah Chou. You've even given Junior Brother Ah Chou a few Message Talismans that you've personally crafted. It seems that you want to use Junior Brother Ah Chou to climb up to Senior Brother Xiao Han.
Everyone in our Pure Cloud Sect knows that the relationship between Junior Brother Ah Chou and Senior Brother Xiao Han is as close as brothers. "A green-robed man faintly smiled.
Wu Xi did not deny it.
At this time …
"Huh?"
Suddenly, Wu Xi's eyebrows raised. A talisman slowly rose from his body. The next moment, this talisman was surrounded by fine and dense true qi, and suddenly began to burn.
In the process of the talisman burning, a weak voice sounded, passing over some voice messages …
"Senior Martial Brother Wu, I am Ah Chou … Senior Martial Brother Wu, I am ashamed to say this, but my clan has encountered some trouble. There are two True Qi realm experts of unknown origin who are secretly monitoring my clan outside my clan's mansion. I went out to negotiate with them, but because of a disagreement, they severely injured me … I hope that Senior Martial Brother Wu can uphold justice for me … This … I wonder if my brother, Xiao Han, has returned to the sect …"
…
"It's a message that Junior Brother Ah Chou sent back from his family!
He's actually been injured!
Humph!
Junior Brother Ah Chou is a true disciple of my Pure Cloud Sect, he dares to hit him? "
Wu Xi flew into a rage, leaping up from his seat.
The other true disciples stood up as well.
"Senior Brother Wu, it seems that we need to go to Junior Brother Ah Chou's family, Blazing Flame City's Shao family, and stand up for Junior Brother Ah Chou.
Two true qi boundary experts of unknown origin?
Interesting … Truly interesting. After so many years, no one has dared to openly injure a direct disciple of my Pure Cloud Sect in the territory of the Beacon Fire Empire. "A yellow-robed True Qi Realm cultivator's eyes were filled with dense killing intent.
"Even if it's the true disciples of the other four sects, they must give us an explanation!"
"Let's go, Senior Brother Wu, let's go together."
"Wait …" Suddenly, Wu Xi's eyes moved.
"Junior Brother Ah Chou has a lot of healing medicines on him, his life is not in danger for a moment.
How about this … after a few hours, when the sky brightens, I will go to Senior Brother Xiao Han's mountain peak and tell him about this matter.
Hehe … We all know what Senior Brother Xiao Han is capable of. He's extremely cruel. During the Hex Hero Trial, he killed anyone who stood in his way. He even dared to kill the Azure Dragon Demon Emperor. Now, someone has beaten up his brother. This … Ahahahaha … Isn't this courting death? "
… …
Pure Cloud Mountain Range.
Xiao Han's mountain peak.
The first ray of morning light climbed up the mountain peak.
Xiao Han slowly got off the bed.
On the bed, Jing Yanxue and Lan Xirong were already exhausted, falling into a deep sleep on the bed like mud.
The corners of their mouths were curved with a smile of pain and happiness.
On their pink faces, there were tear stains, but also tears of happiness.
"Was I too fierce last night … made them …" Xiao Han gently lifted the bedding, seeing their red and swollen areas, a trace of regret flashed across his heart.
"Let them sleep a little longer." Xiao Han lightly kissed the two girls' cheeks, then stretched his body and walked out of the room.
… …
Xiao Han sat on a rock on the mountain peak, looking at the rising red sun.
With last night's entanglement with the two girls, Xiao Han's state of mind was already very calm. For the mission that he was about to complete, he unexpectedly had a trace of confidence. In his heart, there was once again a surging belief that he would definitely win!
"I must not die in the Demon Capital!
For myself, and also for Yanxue and Xi Rong … "The corner of Xiao Han's mouth pulled into a faint smile. In his mind, he also recalled last night, the two girls' obsession and ingratiation, as well as the bone-piercing joy …
Xiao Han emptied his mind and completely immersed himself in a kind of tranquil and full of happiness.
After a while, Xiao Han took out his Demon Hero Token from his bosom.
He opened the message function.
With a sweep of his mind, he read a few messages …
'Mo Qingtong … Xiao Han, why don't you contact me?
I left you a message, but you didn't reply. You really don't give Qingtong any face!
The next time we meet, Qingtong will properly settle the score with you!
Hehehe … Alright, Qingtong is going to form a team with someone and enter an ancient tower for an adventure. Xiao Han, Qingtong is currently accumulating strength and is preparing to expand her meridians.
Alright, after today's adventure is over, Qingtong will come find you.
’
'Fatty Zhu … Boss, where are you enjoying yourself?'
During this period of time, Fatty followed his father and a few of his father's good friends. A group of senior Demon Heroes are training in some ancient ruins in the Northern Region.
Ah … A high level Demon Emperor appeared over there!
Boss, let's not talk about it … '
'Huo Fan … Junior Brother Xiao Han, are you alright?
I met a few Demon Heroes who are at the Opening Realm. They are all good to me and treat me like sisters.
Junior Brother Xiao Han, let me tell you, I have already stepped into the Opening Realm!
Isn't it strange?
Why did I improve so much?
Hmm … Junior Brother Xiao Han, I obtained an ancient strange fruit. After refining it, I gained a few cycles of true qi out of nowhere and broke through many true acupoints. The first time I expanded my acupoints, the result was so-so. I expanded my acupoints five times … The accumulated poison in my body is also slowly dissipating … Heh, the life potential that I lost is recovering bit by bit. It is all because of the effect of that ancient strange fruit … '
…
Hearing the messages left by his former companions, Xiao Han's heart was filled with warmth. He was inexplicably moved.
"Heh, it seems that everyone's luck is not bad.
After Qing Tong came out from the ancient tower, she must have accumulated enough strength to expand her acupoints. Fatty and his father, the older generation of Demon Heroes, must have benefited a lot from this experience. I didn't expect Senior Sister Huo Fan's luck to be the best. After obtaining the ancient strange fruit, the life potential that was depleted due to the consumption of the secret medicine has been greatly restored. Moreover, her cultivation base has increased by a few cycles and she has already expanded her acupoints. She has really soared to the sky.
She can get a rank on the Demon Hero Ranking Board … "
Xiao Han smiled happily and was happy for his companions.
However …
"Where's Yunrong?
Recently, every time I open the transmission function, I'll receive messages from Qing Tong, Fatty, and Senior Sister Huo Yang. But Yun Rong only left me a message once, and then there's no more news, as if she's vanished into thin air. How's she recently? "
With a thought, Xiao Han sent a message to Shao Yunrong … "Yunrong, where are you?"
However, this message was like a stone sinking into the sea. Xiao Han sent a few more messages but there was still no reply.
It seemed that Shao Yunrong had directly turned off the communication function of the Demon Hero Command.
"What's going on?
Yunrong copied me and turned off the communication function … How is she now? "
He did not know why, but Xiao Han actually missed Shao Yunrong very much. He wanted to see her, or at least hear her voice and tell her that she was safe.
Just when Xiao Han was worrying about Shao Yunrong in secret …
"Xiu ~ ~ ~ ~"
A stream of light descended from the sky, the fluctuation of essential qi was incessantly flickering.
The true disciple Wu Xi had already arrived at Xiao Han's mountain peak.
"Senior Brother Xiao Han, hello.
I am Wu Xi. "Wu Xi cupped his hands in greeting.
"Huh?" Xiao Han withdrew his thoughts and looked at Wu Xi.
"Hello."
Xiao Han only had a few days of rest this time. Now, two days had passed and there were only three days left.
He cherished these few days very much. Someone came to disturb him, Xiao Han instinctively felt a little unhappy.
Wu Xi was also a clever person. Judging from Xiao Han's expression, he immediately discovered Xiao Han's displeasure.
He hurriedly said.
"Senior Brother Xiao Han, I did not mean to disturb you, but I have something important to report, so I boldly came. I hope Senior Brother Xiao Han will not blame me for disturbing you."
Wu Xi's words made Xiao Han feel a little embarrassed. He smiled and explained, "I'm sorry, because in a few days, I have to complete an extremely dangerous task, so these days I was a little impatient and wanted some peace and quiet.
I misspoke just now, Senior Brother please don't blame me. "Out of courtesy, Xiao Han also called the other 'Senior Brother'. He was not an arrogant person.
"Well said, well said.
Senior Brother Xiao Han, then I'll make a long story short. Just now, I received a message from Junior Brother Ah Chou from the Blazing Flame City Shao family. Junior Brother Ah Chou was seriously injured by two true qi boundary experts of unknown origin. Now, he is lying on the bed coughing up blood. But Senior Brother Xiao Han does not need to worry, Junior Brother Ah Chou is not in danger of dying, but he must be feeling aggrieved and wants to find someone to stand up for him. "Wu Xi succinctly said.
"I thought that Senior Brother Xiao Han and Junior Brother Ah Chou are like brothers, so I came to inform Senior Brother Xiao Han. If Senior Brother Xiao Han doesn't have the time to deal with this matter, I will immediately head to the Shao Clan in Scorching Flame City …"
"What?
Senior Brother Ah Chou was beaten? "Suddenly, Xiao Han's brows wrinkled, he flew into a rage.
"Senior Brother Ah Chou has always been kind to others, he almost never causes trouble, his temper is ten times better than mine, he was beaten to the point of vomiting blood?
Preposterous! "
"Boom ~ ~ ~ ~ ~"
Inside Xiao Han's body, there was a sudden explosion of thunder. The air in all directions suddenly condensed, Xiao Han's imposing manner became like heaven and earth, the power of his flesh body slightly released, the air constantly distorted.
Wu Xi retreated in horror, the shock in his heart was incomparable … 'I didn't think that Senior Brother Xiao Han's cultivation had already reached such an abnormal level, this imposing manner, is comparable to an ancient beast!'
"Senior Brother, please calm down!" Wu Xi kept quiet out of fear.
"Who beat him?
Forget it, I'll immediately rush to Blazing Flame City! "Xiao Han's body moved, true qi gushed out from his body, he controlled his true qi, and in a breath, he escaped far away.
"Senior Brother Wu, please report to the Sovereign, I will go to Blazing Flame City and help Senior Brother Ah Chou!"
