Ling Xiao smiled and spat out the blood in his mouth.
Then, he picked up the girl lying there and walked outside.
"Shang Guan Hong, let's go."
Ling Xiao knew that although there was still some sword intent here, it was just a remnant. It would not be long before the sword intent completely dissipated.
What he needed to do now was to leave with Shang Guan Hong as soon as possible to avoid any more trouble.
Shang Guan Hong hurried over to take her junior sister and left with Ling Xiao.
Not long after they left, a group of people arrived at the Mansion of Spirits with great momentum.
"Who killed our Fifth Brother?"
A burly man appeared amidst the angry voice.
His body was very broad. Standing there alone, he was probably three times the size of other people.
The powerful aura emitted from his body was terrifying.
"Sect Master Nan, you're late. That kid left less than an hour ago."
The cultivators who had been threatened by Ling Xiao naturally stepped forward to help Nan Jing, the leader of the Great Whale Sect, pass on the message.
"Good kid, you run pretty fast. But even if you run to the ends of the earth, it's useless. How dare you kill my brother. I'll skin you alive!"
Nan Jing's face was ferocious as he roared, "Mobilize everyone to find this guy. Whoever finds him will be rewarded with 50,000 low-grade spirit stones! Whoever catches him will be rewarded with 100,000! Whoever kills him will be rewarded with 300,000! "
…
On the Black Volcano, Ling Xiao was walking step by step towards the crater of the volcano, which was known as the forbidden area.
At this time, black smoke was billowing over there. It seemed that something had happened.
Ling Xiao quickened his pace.
Shang Guan Hong had already brought her junior sister back to the Divine Phoenix Continent. They were using Ling Xiao's Moonlight Treasure Ship.
As for Ling Xiao himself, the last time he was in the City of Sin, he had snatched two airships from others. Although they were not as good as the Moonlight Treasure Ship, it should not be a problem for them to travel.
In the same direction, a young girl was also traveling under the protection of a group of cultivators.
The young girl was about fifteen or sixteen years old. She looked innocent and lively, like a canary that had not experienced the baptism of the world.
The girl's name was Ji Mengmeng, a descendant of the Ji Family of the Sacred Dynasty's Fairy Island.
Only the disciples of the Ji Family had the qualifications to be protected by so many cultivators.
"Young Miss, we can't go any further. Look, there are charred corpses all along the way. It's a horrible sight."
Beside Ji Mengmeng, a middle-aged man in his forties reminded, "The Black Volcano used to be a forbidden area. Now that it has changed, it has been listed as an extremely dangerous place by the island master. You must not go near it."
"Uncle Chen, there's no need to persuade him. You've seen my brother's appearance. In the past, he was regarded by his family as the future successor of the Island Lord. He was a first-rate genius.
But now?
After an inexplicable illness, he actually went crazy and even forgot his own martial arts.
Legend has it that there is a type of 'Black Fire Lotus' growing near the Black Volcano, which is very effective against my brother's illness.
My family doesn't care about him, but I can't. My brother used to love me the most. "
Ji Mengmeng shook her head. Although she was obviously afraid, her eyes were filled with determination and tenacity.
"Young Miss, there's something I don't know if I should say."
The middle-aged man with the surname Chen sighed and said, "The Ji Family is the owner of the Sacred Dynasty's Fairy Island. They are one of the most powerful forces in the entire Sky Dragon Continent and Divine Phoenix Continent. However, even the upper echelons can't get the Black Fire Lotus. Do you think we can find it?"
"Uncle Chen, I'm not stupid."
Ji Mengmeng sighed and said, "It's not that they can't find it, but that they don't want to. There are people in the upper echelons who want my brother dead, but I can't let them do as they wish."
"Who?"
At this moment, the middle-aged man with the surname Chen suddenly roared and pointed the long saber in his hand towards the dense forest.
Bang! Bang!
After a strange sound, a person came out of the forest.
It was a young man.
He was handsome and looked quite dashing.
"Sorry for scaring everyone. I'm just a passerby."
Ling Xiao shrugged and smiled. His face was also bright and sunny. No one could compare him to the legendary Devil Child Ling Xiao.
"Stop giggling. Did you hear what we said?"
The middle-aged man with the surname Chen asked coldly.
"Well, I heard a little. You're going to look for the Black Fire Lotus, right? In fact, I also want to look for this kind of thing."
Ling Xiao nodded and said.
The Black Fire Lotus was a very precious medicinal material that could only be found by chance, because it only appeared one month before the eruption of the volcano.
As for the reason, it was still hard to figure out.
He was lucky this time. The Black Volcano that he had just encountered was obviously showing signs of a breakthrough.
The Black Fire Lotus could be used to refine all kinds of magical elixirs because it had a dual healing effect on the soul and the body, and the effect was very good.
Ling Xiao did not forget Situ Hongyan.
The only woman who survived Bibo Island.
In the face of the sect and justice, the girl chose justice and chose to help him.
Although it was a little silly.
Others could laugh at her. Ling Xiao could not.
Ling Xiao really admired the girl named Situ Hongyan, so he had been trying to find a way to wake her up.
He was lucky this time. Just as he was about to go to the Black Volcano to look for the Immemorial Golden Crow's corpse, he received such important news.
In fact, what Ling Xiao heard was not only about the Black Fire Lotus.
He also heard the words in the hearts of the guards.
They were obviously from another force of the Ji Family. Although they were protecting Ji Mengmeng, they were actually preparing to take the opportunity to destroy Ji Mengmeng's search for the Black Fire Lotus.
These people even viciously planned to kill Ji Mengmeng. In this way, the crazy genius of the Ji Family would be crazy for the rest of her life.
Of course, it would be a pity to just kill her. They hoped that before Ji Mengmeng died, they could have a taste of this Ji Family's young miss.
Among all of them, only the middle-aged man was loyal to Ji Mengmeng.
Poor child, she was being "protected" by a pack of wolves.
With Ling Xiao's strong soul power, he could naturally see through these people's thoughts.
But he did not know Ji Mengmeng, so he did not want to meddle in other people's business.
But if he ignored it, he would feel uncomfortable in his heart.
So he smiled and said to Ji Mengmeng, "A beautiful girl like you, I'm afraid there will be many wolves eyeing you. Don't just look at the scenery in the distance. Also, be careful of the dangers under your feet. It would be bad if you fell into a trap set by a hunter."
If the girl was smart, she would naturally understand the meaning of his words.
If she did not understand, then she could only blame her bad luck.
"Hurry up and go on your way. This has nothing to do with you."
One of the guards shouted at Ling Xiao.
Ling Xiao smiled. He did not want to meddle in other people's business.
But the girl looked at Ling Xiao thoughtfully and smiled, "Thank you for the reminder."
With this word of thanks, Ling Xiao felt that he had earned back. At least he did not help the wrong person.
