Gong Shaoxi thought to himself, I've spent most of my life trying to make breakthroughs in cultivation, and I haven't even had the time to find a partner. But this guy, not only is he so much stronger than me, he hasn't even missed the task of finding a wife! Why is there such a huge gap between us?
"Alright, alright, there's no point in torturing a single dog. Let's hurry up and take care of the bandits!" Hong Zhu simply took Xiao Chen's hand, and the two of them walked into the depths of the secret passageway. When they passed by Gong Shaoxi, she even playfully raised her eyebrows and made a funny face at him.
Gong Shaoxi rubbed his nose gloomily, thinking, If I had known this would happen, I wouldn't have come along. If we were to fight with the bandits, Immortal Master would definitely prioritize protecting Master's wife, while I, a disciple who has no one to love and care for, can only do my best to protect myself. Sigh!
Relying on Xiao Chen's powerful divine sense to explore the way, the trio smoothly traversed the complicated secret passage without encountering any obstacles. After walking for about an hour, they arrived at the exit of the secret passage.
The exit was blocked by a large door, probably to prevent outsiders from entering from the secret passage, so the entire steel cast door was locked from the other side.
Xiao Chen first reached out to push the door, but found that it didn't budge at all. He then gave Hong Zhu and Gong Shaoxi a meaningful look, indicating that they should move to the side.
When the two of them had moved to a safe distance, Xiao Chen began to circulate his mental cultivation method, gathering the rich yuan qi in his body into his palm, and immediately slammed it against the door!
Boom!
A huge explosion suddenly resounded in the secret passage as the door was directly sent flying by Xiao Chen. Fresh air immediately rushed in from the outside, sweeping away the unpleasant earthy smell in the secret passage.
Hong Zhu and Gong Shaoxi put down their hands that were covering their ears, then took deep breaths, as if they had been holding their breath for too long.
"What's going on?! Where did that explosion come from? "
"It seems like someone has broken in from the secret passage. Everyone, quickly go and see what's going on!"
In the bandit lair, a group of men who happened to be patrolling nearby heard the noise and immediately rushed to the exit of the secret passage. One of them even blew a horn, obviously to inform the other bandits to come and help.
Walking through the gate, Gong Shaoxi couldn't help but click his tongue in amazement as he looked at the houses that were arranged in picturesque disorder. The scale of this place was much larger than the Burning Sky Faction, and it looked extremely magnificent and majestic!
"Motherf * cker, there's actually such a luxurious courtyard hidden in this crooked place!" Gong Shaoxi sighed from the bottom of his heart. "It seems like the mountain bandits have robbed quite a number of things from our Liuxian Prefecture. Otherwise, it would be impossible for them to have so many Spiritual Crystals to build such a long secret tunnel and such a huge courtyard!"
Seeing two men and a woman suddenly appear in the secret passage, the bandit squad leader who had rushed over with the patrol team was immediately shocked. His eyes widened as he pointed at Xiao Chen's group and cursed, "Who are you people? How dare you come here and behave atrociously. Are you tired of living? "
"Oh, I am a Great Deity invited by the Burning Sky Faction. I heard that some small bandits are not very clean and have stolen the treasures that they have painstakingly cultivated, so they sent me over to take a look!" Xiao Chen looked at the bandit indifferently and said sarcastically, "I didn't expect you to be just a group of mobs who are good at hiding in the dark!"
"Hahaha! You are just a skinny lad, and you have the nerve to call yourself a Great Deity? Who gave you the courage? " The squad leader sized up Xiao Chen and did not take him seriously at all. He laughed sarcastically.
"I don't have time to argue with you." Xiao Chen crossed his arms in front of his chest and said coldly, "Just call out your most powerful expert! I don't intend to deal with other people, I just want to deal with him! "
"Oh, you are just a small fry and you want to go against our leader? Why don't you go to heaven? "The squad leader rolled his eyes and said while pinching his nose.
"Oh, since you want to see me go to heaven, then I will do as you wish!" Xiao Chen could not be bothered to talk to this guy anymore. He directly took out his flying sword and jumped on it. Then, he flew into the air and looked around.
After getting a clear look at the layout of the bandit lair, Xiao Chen casually sent a palm strike towards the group of bandits who were staring at him dumbfoundedly. Then, riding on his flying sword, he summoned the Fire of the Underworld and commanded it to light up a few rather conspicuous houses.
The patrol team on the ground was originally dumbfounded. They were thinking about how to deal with Xiao Chen who was flying in the sky. Suddenly, they saw him waving his hand lightly. Then, a wave of terrifying pressure came towards them!
Everyone's expressions changed greatly. A few of them who had faster reactions hurriedly scrambled to escape. The rest who had not reacted in time were all sent flying by the powerful force. Their bodies smashed heavily into a nearby mountain wall. Blood flowed out of their orifices and they died instantly!
Gong Shaoxi's eyes involuntarily revealed a look of admiration as he watched Xiao Chen fly in the air on his flying sword. His clothes fluttered in the wind as he guided a ball of strange-colored flames to attack wherever he pointed. In an instant, he had destroyed more than half of the bandit's lair.
Gong Shaoxi had never seen such a superb magic weapon. Whether it was the flying sword or the Fire of the Underworld, any one of them shocked him from the bottom of his heart.
At this time, Gong Shaoxi had already begun to imagine that as his master, if Exalted Immortal Xiao could give him one of these magic weapons in the future, then he would truly have no regrets in this life!
On the other hand, Hong Zhu's expression was calm and emotionless. She had seen Xiao Chen's weapons several times, so she did not find it too strange.
Currently, Hong Zhu's gaze was scanning the ground, trying to find a few lone bandits to test out her Golden Core stage strength. However, from the looks of it, she did not have much of a chance.
The flames in the few houses that Xiao Chen had set alight were growing larger and larger. The bandits inside could not stand the thick smoke and continuously ran out of the houses.
Some of the bandits who were too slow were accidentally splashed by the sparks. Several large holes were instantly burned into their clothes. Furthermore, there was no way to extinguish the fire. Their entire bodies were gradually engulfed by the fire. They lay on the ground and rolled around in pain, wailing incessantly. For a moment, the entire bandit lair was filled with thick smoke and the scene was incomparably chaotic.
"You yellow-haired thief, hurry up and stop!" Just as Xiao Chen was calmly observing the situation from above, he heard an old and deep roar suddenly ring out. An old man dressed in light yellow robes shot out from one of the rooms in the corner of the courtyard and charged straight at Xiao Chen.
"Oh? You've finally called out the master! "Xiao Chen raised his brows slightly. He stood on his flying sword as steady as Mount Tai, waiting for the yellow-robed old man to approach.
