It was late at night, and Chi Huo was feeling very flustered.
As one of the rather famous young experts of the Dao Alliance's generation, he had even been given the title of 'Little Fire God'. In truth, he had always been very high-spirited before today.
In his eyes, he was confident in his own strength.
It could be said that aside from the heirs of the Dao Alliance's top aristocratic families, he looked down on ordinary cultivators of the same generation. It was not an exaggeration to say that his eyes were above his head.
At this time, he also had a common problem that most talented youths had.
He was eager for success and cared about his reputation. He was extremely lacking in Jianghu experience.
It was precisely because of these shortcomings that he, who wanted to become famous for slaying demons and devils, was easily tricked by Poison Master.
What made him feel even more ashamed was that not only was he captured, but he was also drugged by the demon and forced to become a slave to help Poison Master build Zhai Xing Lou.
As a fourth level Xiantian great cultivator, he had to be handcuffed to carry bricks. Not only did he not have enough food and sleep, but he also had to be whipped by some low-level little demons.
It could be said that if it wasn't for the fact that he had a brother in distress by his side, Shi Tang, who had suffered together with him during those two days of humiliating slave life, which made him feel a little better, Chi Huo would have even thought of committing suicide.
After all, there was someone who was worse off than him, so he felt a little comforted.
Then, he was saved by Ye Qing who suddenly appeared. After he woke up from his coma, not only was the poison on his body cured, but his injuries were also mostly healed. This sudden happiness almost made Chi Huo cry tears of happiness.
Shi Tang felt the same way. When the two brothers woke up, they gave each other a fierce hug with tears in their eyes.
"Good brother!"
"Good brother!"
Yes, after experiencing being poisoned together, moving bricks together, and even being whipped together, the two of them had directly turned from the original dislike of each other into good brothers who had a life-and-death relationship.
Originally, such a scene was quite touching.
However, just as the two of them were immersed in the joy of escaping death, Chi Huo suddenly discovered that behind Shi Tang, a beautiful girl with beast ears was looking at him curiously.
This was…a fox demon?
Before Chi Huo could react, he subconsciously summoned a ball of flame with his spiritual power as usual, ready to eliminate the demon.
However, just as he summoned a large fireball a second ago, he suddenly remembered the scene he saw before he fainted in the battle in the valley.
Poison Master, who was known as one of the Five Poison Guardians of the Southern Kingdom and a fifth level demon monarch, was stomped under the feet of a fox demon girl as he laughed arrogantly.
If nothing went wrong, the fox demoness 'cultivation level must be at least at the fifth realm to be able to trample a greater demon king under her feet.
And that fox demoness girl seemed to be…similar to the one in front of him…
A little similar?
And now, he actually wanted to attack a person who was very likely a peak greater demon monarch?
Am I courting death?
At the thought of this, Chi Huo's excitement from escaping death instantly cooled down.
As a drop of cold sweat rolled down his forehead, his right hand that he had just raised froze in midair.
"Brother Chi, what are you doing?"
When Shi Tang saw this, he naturally turned around to take a look curiously.
Then, when he looked over, he was immediately stunned on the spot.
Just like that, the two people who were extremely excited a second ago were now frozen on the spot in tacit understanding, not daring to move at all.
Seeing this, Tushan Yaya blinked her eyes.
"What are you guys doing?"
When Chi Huo heard this, the scene of Poison Master being stomped unconscious appeared in his mind. His body did not dare to move at that time, and the corners of his mouth twitched violently.
"Replying to Lady Fox Demon, we, are cramping.”
Shi Tang reacted quickly and immediately nodded.
"That's right, cramps, we're cramping, ah, hahaha.”
He forced a dry laugh.
Cramp?
Tushan Yaya looked at their stiff faces, then pointed at the fireball that Chi Huo had just summoned above his head with confusion.
"If you're cramping up, why did you summon such a big fireball?”
This question immediately stumped Chi Huo.
Why would I summon fireballs?
Can I say that I saw a monster and subconsciously wanted to kill it?
To say such words to a great demon king, do I still want to live?
At this moment, sensing Tushan Yaya's gaze, Chi Huo felt a tremendous pressure. Cold sweat started to drip down his back.
Then, under Yaya's puzzled gaze, he caught a glimpse of the bonfire burning beside him from the corner of his eye. Suddenly, an idea flashed in his mind.
"Uh…"
"I saw that the fire was about to go out, so I wanted to add some firewood to it.”
Chi Huo said something that he did not mean. The corners of his mouth twitched and he forced out a few awkward dry laughs.
Hearing this explanation, Yaya subconsciously turned her head to look at the burning bonfire beside her.
"Such a big bonfire, and you actually said it was going to extinguish?”
She looked at the two nervous people in front of her with interest and began to look forward to what lies they could say.
Facing her gaze, the two men from Crimson Huo Stone Hall were on the verge of tears.
Just as the two of them racked their brains and did not know how to make things right, a voice suddenly sounded from behind them.
"Alright, Miss Yaya, stop teasing them.”
Upon hearing this familiar voice, the two people from Crimson Huo Stone Hall were overjoyed. They turned their heads immediately and saw Ye Qing with a smile on his face.
Instantly, the two of them felt as if they had seen their savior.
"Brother Ye!"
"Benefactor!"
Ye Qing was amused by the ridiculous titles.
These two people's desire to live was really not ordinary.
When Yaya saw Ye Qing return, her eyes instantly lit up. She no longer had the mood to continue teasing the two of them and immediately turned her gaze to Ye Qing.
"How is it? Have you figured out the situation in the vicinity?"
Yaya asked.
Previously, the two of them were busy running and flying. In addition, their vision was too poor at night, so they randomly found a forest to land and rest. They did not know where they were at all.
Therefore, Ye Qing specially went out to investigate. Now, he had already figured out the general situation.
"I've made it clear. We've already completely left the border of the Southern Kingdom. We're now in the human territory.
Just now, I asked around with the nearby commoners and discovered that this is a territory called Jinhua City. If I remember correctly, the aristocratic family in charge of Jinhua City is the Wen family, known as the number one thunderbolt clan in the Dao Alliance.”
