"Boom..."
With a resounding boom that echoed through the skies, Feng Mohan’s barrier shattered abruptly.
"Whoosh~"
Yan Rufeng disappeared in a flash of light before Feng Mohan and Jiang Mang’er.
Outside Wanhua Valley, a dark mass of nearly ten million people had gathered. Judging by their attire, they were all disciples of the Canglan Immortal Sect.
Suddenly, a domineering voice rang out.
"Won of Wanhua Valley, heed my command, hand over Yan Rufeng and you shall live!"
"Swish!"
A rainbow light dissipated, and Yan Rufeng appeared before the leading figure.
"Xiao Chuan, cease your wild talk!"
"Hahaha..."
Xiao Chuan laughed maniacally to the sky.
"Yan Rufeng, I must admit you’re nothing but a jinx, bringing calamity wherever you go."
Yan Rufeng raised her head, her voice elevated, "Xiao Chuan, I’ve never treated you poorly. Why do you follow Gudu Mohan’s commands to try and kill ?"
"Hmph."
Xiao Chuan snorted coldly.
"Yan Rufeng, all I desire is the divine status in your possession. What does this have to do with Emperor Gudu?"
"Haha..."
Yan Rufeng laughed, "Xiao Chuan, I didn’t expect you to still speak for Gudu Mohan. Maybe I should use the Soul Searching Technique on you, just like I did to Yun Jiuge, and you’ll fall in line!"
"Yan Rufeng, what did you say?"
Yan Rufeng said blandly, "What else could I an? Everything you, Yun Jiuge, Lin Youyun, and Lei Ming did—I know it all. Yun Jiuge got what he deserved."
"Impossible, impossible!"
Xiao Chuan suddenly roared in anger.
"Yan Rufeng, stop spouting nonsense. I know Yun Jiuge’s strength. Even I would have to put in effort to beat him. With your current cultivation, how could you have defeated Yun Jiuge?"
Xiao Chuan’s eyes were like torches. Though he appeared domineering, inside he was deeply anxious. He could not and would not believe that Yan Rufeng had killed Yun Jiuge.
Xiao Chuan’s Canglan Immortal Sect was located on Xuanming Star, relatively close to Wanhua Valley. Three hours ago, he received a notification: Yun Jiuge was dead, and the plan had been accelerated to attack Wanhua Valley and capture Yan Rufeng alive...
Yan Rufeng smiled slightly.
"What, is the revered Northern Emperor Xiao Chuan now afraid?"
"Haha!"
Xiao Chuan laughed dismissively, "Yan Rufeng, I must admit you’re quite capable. Surviving self-destruction and then, in just a decade, raising your cultivation to the Immortal Monarch Realm."
"Tsk, tsk!"
"To think you’re about to die by my hand, what a pity."
"Heh heh!"
Yan Rufeng sneered, "Xiao Chuan, Xiao Chuan, what should I say to you? I rember when you hadn’t yet beco an Immortal Venerable, you begged repeatedly for a single Abnormal Fire, kneeling before . Now, your wings have grown, and you dare to speak to like this. You’ve really co a long way, Xiao Chuan."
"Yan Rufeng!"
Xiao Chuan roared in anger.
"Stop ntioning the past. If it weren’t for you suppressing everywhere, would I have had to humble myself before Gudu Mohan?"
"That was your own choice. What does it have to do with ?" Yan Rufeng retorted harshly.
"Heh."
Xiao Chuan gave a cold laugh.
"Yan Rufeng, I know the Nanli Fire is still with you. Hand it over and I’ll spare your life!"
Yan Rufeng smiled, "Xiao Chuan, I’m surprised you’re still hung up on the Nanli Fire after all this ti."
"Why wouldn’t I be? The Nanli Fire belongs to . If you hadn’t snatched it halfway, would I have had to humble myself before others?" Xiao Chuan roared in fury.
"Think carefully, Xiao Chuan, does the Nanli Fire truly belong to you?"
Yan Rufeng scoffed, "We both went to Nanli Fairyland and discovered the Nanli Fire together. You proposed that whoever the Nanli Fire chose would own it. You didn’t expect that your body, surrounded by Abnormal Fires, would never attract the Nanli Fire."
"So, you have held a grudge against all this ti?" Yan Rufeng said furiously.
"Yan Rufeng, shut up!"
Xiao Chuan, now enraged and ashad, shouted.
"Had you not played tricks, would the Nanli Fire have followed you?"
"Heh!"
Yan Rufeng chuckled.
"What tricks did I play? rely telling the Nanli Fire it would have a boon if it followed . Is that a trick?"
"Haha!"
Xiao Chuan mocked, "Yan Rufeng, given your current predicant, aren’t you afraid your tongue will slip saying things like this? What boon can you possibly offer?"
"Sigh!"
Xiao Chuan lowered his voice, sighing, "Yan Rufeng, hand over the Nanli Fire, and we can still be brothers. I’ll even plead for you with Brother Gudu."
Yan Rufeng shook her head.
"Xiao Chuan, I’ve given you enough. Half of the eighteen Abnormal Fires in your body are from . I treated you as a brother, but your actions have deeply disappointed ."
"Yan Rufeng!"
Suddenly, Xiao Chuan’s body trembled, emitting a blue fla all around.
"I won’t waste words with you. Answer : will you hand over the Nanli Fire?"
Yan Rufeng said calmly, "That depends on whether you have the ability to take it."
"Good, very good!"
Xiao Chuan clapped his hands, saying, "Yan Rufeng, you brought this upon yourself. Don’t bla for not showing any old sentints. Prepare to die!"
"Buzz!"
Suddenly, blue light burst from Xiao Chuan’s body, millions of hot flas roasting the earth.
The heatwave surged; within and outside Wanhua Valley, all the Flower Fairies felt as though they were facing a great enemy, seemingly ready to flee, but unable to move an inch. The next mont, the vibrant Flower Fairies began to wither.
"Heaven’s misdeeds can be forgiven, but one’s own misdeeds cannot be."
Yan Rufeng sighed, "Xiao Chuan, since you’re determined, don’t bla for being ruthless."
Imdiately, Yan Rufeng’s whole body exuded a murderous aura as she shouted.
"Nanli’s Soul, co forth!"
"Swish~"
"Buzz~"
Red light illuminated the earth, warm and harmonious.
At that mont, everyone in the surroundings of Wanhua Valley and even throughout Xuanming Star saw an additional sun appearing in the sky, astonishing them.
From within Yan Rufeng’s Purple Mansion, the soul of Nanli, transford into a sun, was summoned. Suddenly, it spoke in human language.
"Master, what are your orders?"
Yan Rufeng said calmly, "Can you retrieve all the Abnormal Fires from Xiao Chuan’s body?"
"Master, that’s easy. Just watch ."
"Buzz~"
The red, round soul of Nanli fell in front of Yan Rufeng, spinning rapidly.
At this mont, the blue flas around Xiao Chuan turned fearful and dimd imdiately.
"You souls of Abnormal Fires, hear . Cultivation is not easy, I, the Supre of Nanli, cannot bear to turn you to ashes. I hope you quickly leave Xiao Chuan’s body and co under my command. In due ti, you will be granted a great boon..."
