In the depths of Lost Stone Forest, a figure appeared out of thin air in front of a stone house that was completely hollowed out.
It was a muscular old man in a red robe.
It was the red-robed old man who had just entered Lost Stone Forest.
"You used to have the Fire Spirit Body?"
At this moment, the old man was looking at the stone house before him with gleaming eyes. His tone was solemn as though he was talking to the air.
"How did you know?"
Almost at the instant the old man's words left his mouth, the stone house's door opened automatically. A figure that looked like a fire spirit appeared before the old man's eyes.
It was a lady in red.
The lady had a peerless appearance that could cause the downfall of a nation. As soon as she appeared, it seemed as though everything around her paled in comparison.
"Good, good …"
The old man studied the red-robed lady before him and kept saying 'good'. The more he looked at her, the more satisfied he was.
"What's your name?"
The old man asked the red-robed lady, who was also Feng Tianwu, kindly.
"You haven't answered me."
Feng Tianwu did not answer the old man.
"Because I used to have the Fire Spirit Body too."
The old man replied with a smile, "You can say that we're the same type of people."
"You used to have the Fire Spirit Body too?"
Feng Tianwu was a little surprised when she heard the old man's words.
Although she had lost her memory, she had learned about the Fire Spirit Body from the man she liked a long time ago.
She also knew that it was all thanks to that man that she was able to get rid of the Fire Spirit Body.
As for how difficult it was for an ordinary possessor of the Fire Spirit Body to break free from the shackles of the Fire Spirit Body exploding at the age of thirty was something she knew very well from that man.
Since the old man before her could get rid of the shackles of the Fire Spirit Body, it meant that he was not an ordinary person.
"Only people with the same innate spirit body can sense each other … Don't you think I'm very close to you?"
The old man asked with a kind smile on his face.
"I think so, a little."
Feng Tianwu nodded.
She realized that apart from that man, she was extremely cold to everyone else. However, not only was she not cold to this old man whom she met for the first time, she even started chatting with him.
"Who are you? How dare you trespass into our Lost Stone Forest! "
Right at this moment, a cold and indifferent voice sounded out like a thunderclap, and it caused Feng Tianwu's expression to turn grim. She hurriedly looked at the red robed old man before her. "Leave quickly. The people here aren't to be trifled with."
"You're very kind."
The red-robed old man smiled and nodded in satisfaction. No one knew what he was thinking.
Then, he turned around and looked at a young man who was rushing over from not far away.
The young man was dressed in black and was tall. He was currently glaring at the red-robed old man and said coldly, "Old man, do you know the consequences of trespassing on our Lost Stone Forest?"
The black-clad young man was none other than Zhou Yi.
"Consequences? I'm very curious, what are the consequences? "
The red-robed old man calmly looked at Zhou Yi and asked.
"Since you're curious, I'll tell you! The consequence is … death! "
Zhou Yi didn't expect that the red-robed old man would dare to talk back to him. He flew into a rage and shouted. His entire body seemed to have turned into a bolt of lightning as he shot toward the red-robed old man.
"Be careful!"
Zhou Yi's speed was too fast. Even if Feng Tianwu wanted to save him, it was too late. All she could do was cry out in alarm.
Boom!
Soon after, a loud sound reverberated in the air. It was accompanied by waves of rolling airwaves that turned into gusts of strong wind that blew the surrounding boulders.
Especially the stone house that Feng Tianwu lived in, it was directly destroyed by the rolling airwaves.
The stone house was originally formed by hollowing out a boulder. Compared to the boulder, it was much weaker.
"Barf!"
Then, Feng Tianwu saw Zhou Yi was sent flying backward like an arrow that was released from a bow. He continued to spit out blood along the way and looked extremely wretched.
On the other hand, the red-robed old man stood there without moving an inch.
It was as though nothing had happened to him.
"You … You're Emperor Wu?"
Finally, Zhou Yi came to a halt and looked at the red-robed old man with a grave expression.
Only a powerhouse like Emperor Wu could take his attack head-on without moving an inch.
"Your ability is considered pretty good among the Martial Monarch Stage martial artists … If I'm not mistaken, you must be that brat Shi Qi's direct disciple, right?"
The red-robed old man asked calmly as he glanced at Zhou Yi indifferently.
That brat Shi Qi?
The moment the red-robed old man's words left his mouth, not only was Zhou Yi dumbfounded, but even Feng Tianwu was shocked by him.
This old man addressed the owner of Lost Stone Forest, Emperor Wu, as a brat?
"You … Senior, who are you?"
As Emperor Wu's favorite direct disciple, Zhou Yi was extremely good at observing people's expressions. At that moment, he realized he might have kicked an iron plate so he asked anxiously.
The red-robed old man ignored Zhou Yi's question and said loudly, "Shi Qi brat, you're really arrogant … Do you want me to invite you out?"
The red-robed old man's voice that contained Origin Energy swept through the entire Lost Stone Forest in just a blink of an eye.
At that moment, the entire Lost Stone Forest was in an uproar.
Shi Qi brat?
"Oh my god! Who's the person who spoke? He actually addressed Lord Emperor Wu as a brat? "
"If he's not here to look for trouble, then he's most likely Emperor Wu's senior."
…
Many of Emperor Wu's disciples and Emperor Wu's followers began to discuss among themselves.
Meanwhile, Emperor Wu's followers who were chasing the red-robed old man into the depths of Lost Stone Forest stopped in their tracks and looked at each other.
"Don't tell me that the old man who addressed Lord Emperor Wu as a brat is the same old man from earlier?"
One of the Martial Emperor's followers asked as he swallowed his saliva.
"Apart from him, there shouldn't be a second old man in Lost Stone Forest … It should be him."
Another Emperor Wu's follower said.
Soon after, the group of Emperor Wu's followers who were charging toward the depths of Lost Stone Forest turned around and returned to the place where they were patrolling.
At this moment, they realized something.
They could not afford to offend the red-robed old man!
"Senior Chi Huo."
In the depths of Lost Stone Forest, Emperor Wu appeared not long after the red-robed old man spoke.
After Martial Emperor Shi Qi appeared, he bowed respectfully at the red-robed old man.
This scene stunned Zhou Yi and Feng Tianwu who were standing at the side.
Even the other two Emperor Wu's direct disciples who heard the news were stunned. They stared blankly at the scene before them and could not regain their senses for a long time.
"Shi Qi, judging by the speed you displayed earlier … You've made a breakthrough?"
The red-robed old man, Chi Huo, whom Martial Emperor Shi Qi referred to as, asked as he sized Martial Emperor Shi Qi up with interest.
"Senior Chi Huo, you have a good eye."
Emperor Wu smiled and nodded before asking, "Senior Chi Huo, when did you return to Cloud Continent?"
When did he return to Cloud Continent?
The moment Emperor Wu's words left his mouth, Feng Tianwu looked at Chi Huo in confusion. This old man was not from Cloud Continent?
As for Zhou Yi, his expression changed instantly. "He … He's a powerhouse from outside Cloud Continent?"
"I just returned," Chi Huo replied.
He then looked at Zhou Yi and said nonchalantly, "Shi Qi boy, your direct disciple is quite strong."
Upon hearing Chi Huo's words, Zhou Yi did not wait for his master to react. He hurriedly bowed humbly and apologized respectfully. "Senior Chi Huo, I didn't know your identity earlier. Please forgive me for offending you."
"Zhou Yi, what did you do?"
At this moment, Emperor Wu finally regained his senses. He looked at Zhou Yi and asked in a deep voice.
"Master, I mistakenly thought Senior Chi Huo was an outsider who trespassed into our Lost Stone Forest, so …"
Zhou Yi did not finish his sentence, but Emperor Wu could roughly guess what had happened.
"Senior Chi Huo, please forgive my disciple for offending you."
Emperor Wu followed suit and bowed respectfully to Chi Huo. There was a hint of respect between his brows.
"It's just a small matter."
Chi Huo shook his head, indicating that he would not take it to heart. After a while, he said, "I returned to Cloud Continent this time mainly to remind all of you … That matter has been brought forward by a year. You can start preparing now. "
"A year?"
Emperor Wu was slightly surprised. "Senior Chi Huo, why is that so?"
"I don't know the exact reason … I'm just a messenger. Now that the message has been delivered, it's time for me to leave, "Chi Huo said calmly.
When he reached the end of his sentence, he looked at the red-clad lady standing next to him, Feng Tianwu. "I'd like to take this little girl with me … You don't have any objections, right?"
Chi Huo asked as he stared deeply at Martial Emperor Shi Qi.
"Of course, I don't have any objections!"
Emperor Wu quickly responded.
Put aside the fact that Feng Tianwu was not related to him, even if she was his direct disciple, as long as Chi Huo asked, he would transfer her to Chi Huo.
When Zhou Yi heard that Chi Huo wanted to take Feng Tianwu away, although his expression was slightly grave, he did not dare to do anything.
Chi Huo was someone even his master, Emperor Wu, feared. Naturally, he did not dare to offend him.
"Girl, come with me … With your innate talent, you shouldn't be buried here."
Chi Huo said to Feng Tianwu.
It was obvious he thought Feng Tianwu was Emperor Wu's direct disciple in Lost Stone Forest.
"I can go with you … However, you have to help me kill them."
Feng Tianwu said slowly as she looked at Emperor Wu and Zhou Yi.
"Huh?"
Chi Huo was stunned. Then, he looked at Martial Emperor Shi Qi and Zhou Yi. When both of them felt goosebumps rising on their skin, he asked curiously, "How did they offend you?"
He thought the red-clad lady next to him was Emperor Wu's direct disciple as well. However, it seemed like that was not the case.
"They deserve to die."
Feng Tianwu said coldly.
"Senior Chi Huo, I …"
Martial Emperor Shi Qi wanted to say something when he saw Chi Huo sizing him up. However, he was interrupted by Chi Huo.
"Don't you think it's better if you kill them with your own strength?"
Chi Huo asked as he looked at Feng Tianwu.
