Huo Kui made a solemn vow.
Ji Tianxing didn't believe him on the surface, but he had his own plans in mind.
Even if Huo Kui teased him, he couldn't be bothered.
Very quickly, another six hours passed.
It was evening again.
The two of them finally arrived near Mount Fulong.
When they were still a few hundred miles away, Huo Kui pointed at the huge grayish-brown mountain range in front of them and said to Ji Tianxing, "Little brother, that's Mount Fulong!"
Ji Tianxing looked into the distance and saw the huge mountain range. It indeed stretched for thousands of miles.
Looking down from the sky, the mountain range really did look like a divine dragon lying on the ground!
The grayish-brown mountain ridge was sharp and full of power, just like the back of an ancient divine dragon.
The few branches that extended from the foot of the mountain also spread out like a dragon's claw.
When Ji Tianxing saw Mount Fulong with his own eyes, he finally understood why Huo Kui was so fanatical and claimed that the mountain was formed by a divine dragon.
Before long, the two of them flew a few hundred miles away and arrived above Mount Fulong.
Ji Tianxing's sharp senses detected that the air around Mount Fulong was still filled with thick spiritual Qi of Heaven and Earth, as well as faint ripples of divine power.
The facts proved that a divine item had really appeared in Mount Fulong.
He looked around a few hundred miles ahead of him and saw a faint shadow streaking across the sky.
It seemed that some adventurers were still lingering in the depths of Mount Fulong.
At that moment, Huo Kui took out a silver arrow and released it after injecting his magic power.
Whoosh!
The arrow shot into the sky and exploded, turning into silver light that could be seen from a few hundred miles away.
Ji Tianxing knew that Huo Kui was calling for his companions.
As expected, before long, two streaks of light flew out of Mount Fulong and rushed over as fast as lightning.
Whoosh! Whoosh!
The two streaks of light stopped in front of them. After the light faded, two middle-aged men appeared.
One of them had a body as sturdy as a boulder and was wearing a thick black armor.
The other was as thin as a bamboo pole and wore black leather armor. He had a shifty-eyed appearance.
Once the two of them bowed to Huo Kui, their gazes landed on Ji Tianxing. They sized him up with puzzlement and wariness.
"Boss Huo Kui, who is this brat?"
"Big Brother, this kid looks very unfamiliar. Could it be that he's a newbie that you're grooming?"
Huo Kui was still concerned about the matter of the Divine Dragon's Blood, so he couldn't be bothered to waste his breath with them.
"I met this kid on the road … Didn't I ask you two to keep an eye on him? Where are the divine items? Who stole it? "
The shifty-eyed skinny man hurriedly replied, "Big Brother, the divine object was born last night and was only taken away this morning.
The people who had snatched away the divine object were the group of mysterious experts from before!
Their strength is too strong. The two of us can't get close at all, let alone follow them. We can only wait here for you. "
Huo Kui immediately furrowed his brows and angrily shouted, "Bastard! The divine object that I've been eyeing for more than a month was snatched away by them so easily?
Weren't there a few groups of people squatting near Mount Fulong?
Could it be that those bastards didn't try to snatch it? Did they just watch as the divine object was snatched away? "
The black-armored man explained, "Those groups of adventurers all took action and fought with those mysterious experts for a long time.
Unfortunately, those adventurers weren't strong enough and weren't able to snatch the divine object. More than ten of their experts were even killed.
Big Brother, look over there. Those are the traces left behind by their fight. They fought and fled in that direction … "
After saying that, the black-armored man pointed towards the depths of Mount Fulong.
Mount Fulong and the surrounding mountain ranges were filled with huge ravines and gaps. There were also several deep pits that were dozens of kilometers in radius.
Looking over, at least a few hundred kilometers in radius, it was a scene of devastation.
Huo Kui immediately turned pale with fright. He exclaimed in disbelief, "The strength of those mysterious experts is actually this strong?"
The black-armored man hurriedly nodded and said with lingering fear, "Big Brother, with our strength, it's impossible for us to snatch the divine object!
There's an ugly shorty among those mysterious experts. He's terrifyingly strong and can kill the three of us by himself. "
The shifty-eyed skinny man also nodded in agreement and said with a bit of fear, "Big Brother, we saw it with our own eyes. Why don't … we just give up?
No matter how precious the divine object is, we can't abandon our lives. "
Huo Kui's expression was as cold as ice. His gaze fluctuated for a while before he cursed unwillingly, "Son of a b * tch! I'll remember this grudge!
Don't let me find out their identities. Sooner or later, I'll kill them all and snatch the divine object back! "
The black-armored man and skinny man nodded repeatedly and cursed with righteous indignation.
The three of them quieted down and their gazes landed on Ji Tianxing.
The shifty-eyed skinny man rolled his eyes and gave Huo Kui a meaningful look. He transmitted his voice and asked, "Big Brother, is the little lamb fat?"
Huo Kui was stunned for a moment before he grinned. "Of course it's fat. It's so fat that it's oozing oil!
As the saying goes, what you lose on the swings, you gain on the roundabouts.
I can't get the divine object, but I can't work for nothing! "
The black-armored man quickly nodded and a cruel sneer appeared on his dark face.
The shifty-eyed skinny man smiled and flattered, "Big Brother, you've become more knowledgeable recently. Your words are becoming more and more refined."
Ji Tianxing listened to their conversation and silently observed the situation in Mount Fulong while thinking about his next move.
He suddenly sensed that the atmosphere wasn't good. He turned his head and saw Huo Kui and the other two surrounding him with sinister smiles.
Huo Kui carried his palm-sized broadsword and sneered. "Little brother, are you going to do it yourself, or do you want me to help you?"
The black-armored man licked his lips with a bloodthirsty look in his eyes. He said with killing intent, "Boss, I think we should follow the old rules and chop him up. Then we'll count the spoils …"
The shifty-eyed skinny man smiled and said with a mocking tone, "Don't be so rough. I can see that this brat has an extraordinary bearing. He probably comes from an extraordinary family and has a lot of money.
Big Brother, why don't we leave him alive and extort some money from his family and make a big deal? "
Huo Kui thought for a moment and shook his head. "That's a good idea, but I don't want to go through so much trouble.
After saying that, he rushed in front of Ji Tianxing in a flash. With a clang, he pulled out his treasured blade and placed it against Ji Tianxing's neck.
"Brat, you can either leave your wealth behind or leave your life behind!"
If it were a normal disciple of an aristocratic family, they would have been stunned by such a turn of events.
If it were someone with a weak temperament, they might even pee in their pants.
Huo Kui was used to using this move. He had robbed and killed countless young cultivators. It was a tried and tested method.
However, he met Ji Tianxing this time.
Ji Tianxing's expression remained calm and composed. Even when a blade was placed against his neck, he didn't blink.
His heart didn't waver at all. He even felt like laughing.
"Hehe … You really are a vicious executioner. You don't deserve to die!
