When Wutian walked out of the gate, the villagers hurriedly surrounded him. Their previous ridicule had disappeared at this moment, and their attitude had completely changed.
"Little Tian, you've already opened your physique. You have to contribute to the village in the future!"
"Yeah, everyone has taken care of you and Old Long these years. You have to repay everyone."
"Little Tian, now that you've become a disciple of the Fire Cloud Sect, don't bother with Grandpa Long Quan. In fact, Grandpa scolded you before for your own good. I hope you can become a talent."
With regards to the villagers' compliments and Long Quan's change in attitude, Wutian didn't have much emotion. He faintly replied a few words and walked straight to the two people from the Fire Cloud Sect who had been waiting for a long time.
"Senior brother and sister, we can go now." Wutian said.
The well-dressed youth nodded expressionlessly and jumped on the flamingo. The girl followed closely behind.
Wutian looked deeply at the wooden house where Grandpa was, and without saying a word, he jumped on.
"Up!" The man shouted.
The flamingo screeched and rushed into the sky, quickly disappearing in front of everyone.
"Little bastard, don't think that you'll be fine after going to the Fire Cloud Sect. Hehe, the good show is yet to come." Long He looked at the sky and sneered.
The cold wind was biting cold. Wutian lay on the bird's back, not daring to move. This was the first time he rode a flying beast, and also the first time he was in the sky. He was quite nervous, and waves of dizziness hit him, causing his face to turn pale.
"Gua!" Little Tian lay on his head, his long and narrow eyes staring at the man and woman with vigilance.
"Ah, the Demon Frog, so disgusting." A scream rang out, and the girl instinctively retreated, hiding behind the man. She looked at each other with disgust, and even Wutian.
The Demon Frog was a low level beast, and it couldn't even be considered a beast. Moreover, it looked disgusting. Any girl who saw it would feel disgusted and avoid it.
"Junior sister, don't be rude!" The finely-dressed youth reprimanded, but there was also disdain in his eyes. He looked down on someone who could associate with the Demon Frog. If it weren't for the fact that the other party was also a Demon Frog and had a relationship with Lin Shan, he wouldn't have bothered with them at all.
Wutian gradually adapted to the high altitude. He sat up, but his legs were still trembling slightly. He held Little Tian in his hand and said apologetically, "Senior sister, I'm sorry for scaring you."
The woman didn't answer, but the disgust on her face became even stronger.
Wutian smiled indifferently and didn't say anything. Little Tian's appearance was indeed unsatisfactory, but after spending some time together, she was his second relative after his grandfather. Moreover, after experiencing the events of a month ago, he understood the principle of 'treasuring a jade ring is a crime'. If the two of them were to find out Little Tian's true identity, they would probably be like Long He and kill him to steal his treasures.
At this moment, Wutian noticed that their appearances were rather extraordinary. They were both 13 or 14 years old, and their strengths were like an ocean that couldn't be seen through or fathomed.
After taking a few glances, Wutian shifted his gaze to the ground.
The flamingo was covered in scales. It was the size of a palm and looked like it was made of magma. It was red like fire and emitted a trace of warmth. Below it, the mountains overlapped, majestic and majestic. Wutian firmly grabbed onto a piece of scale and curiously sized it up.
The Scarlet Sun Mountain Range was very vast and stretched for thousands of miles. There were countless strange creatures and strange sceneries. This was the first time Wutian walked out of the Dragon Village. Seeing such a majestic scene, the shock in his heart became even more uncontrollable.
"Wutian, I'm the son of the Fire Cloud Sect's Patriarch, Huo Shi. This is Junior Sister Liu Yan. Don't look down on Junior Sister Liu because she's a woman. She's the direct disciple of the Grand Elder and also possesses the Fire Spiritual Physique. Among all the disciples of the Fire Cloud Sect, her strength can be ranked in the top ten. "
Wutian said in shock, "So strong!"
"Don't listen to Senior Brother's nonsense. If we're talking about strength, then Senior Brother is the one who's truly strong. Not to mention that he possesses the Fire and Wood Spiritual Physique, he's only fourteen years old and his cultivation has already reached the great circle of Reincarnation Realm.
"Dual Elemental Spiritual Physique!"
Wutian was shocked. Longhu's Fire Spiritual Physique was already very rare, but he didn't expect that this youth, who was only two years younger than him, would possess the Dual Elemental Spiritual Physique. As the saying goes, there's always someone better than you.
"Greetings to Senior Brother Huo and Senior Sister Liu. This is my first time here, so please take care of me in the future." Wutian cupped his hands and said. He understood that seniority in the sect was measured by strength.
Huo Shi said indifferently, "We can take care of you, but there's a price to pay. I wonder if Junior Brother Wutian is willing to pay."
"Senior Brother Huo must be joking. I'm just a country bumpkin with nothing. How could I have anything that could catch Senior Brother and Senior Sister's eyes?" Wutian was very modest.
"That's not necessarily the case." The man said indifferently with a meaningful smile on his face.
"Gua!"
At this moment, Little Tian cried out. To Huo Shi and Liu Yan, this was just an ordinary cry, but Wutian could clearly feel that this cry contained a trace of impatience.
And the reason for this was Huo Shi's smile.
After spending a month together, Wutian understood Little Tian quite well. Little Tian's premonition for danger was extraordinary. If it wasn't for its unique premonition, they would've already been buried in the stomach of a demonic beast after twenty days of tempering.
And right now, they were in the air with nothing around them. It was impossible for a demonic beast to attack them. The only explanation was Huo Shi and Liu Yan.
'Did Little Tian discover something?' Wutian thought to himself as he comforted Little Tian. At the same time, he also became vigilant.
Four hours later, Flamingo arrived above a river.
"Junior Sister, do you want to go down and rest for a while?" Huo Shi asked.
Liu Yan nodded, "It's Junior Brother Wutian's first time riding Flamingo. I'm afraid it'll be hard for him to get used to it. Anyway, we're not in a hurry. It'll be good to go down and rest for a while."
Hearing her words, Huo Shi ordered and Flamingo swooped down and stopped by the river.
This was an endless river that was thirty meters wide. The river was flowing rapidly, but it was very clean. The river bank was filled with lush vegetation and jagged rocks. It was as if a demonic beast had turned into stone. It was ferocious and terrifying.
"Junior Brother Wutian, go get some water." Huo Shi took out a water bottle and threw it to Wutian. Then, he and Liu Yan walked to a tree not far away and sat on the ground.
Wutian took the jug of water and looked at the backs of the two. Then, he walked to the riverside thoughtfully. Although he couldn't divine his own fortune, he could still divine some clues from Huo Shi and Huo Shi.
Suddenly, Wutian's body trembled and his hair stood on end. A strong sense of danger enveloped him. It came from Huo Shi and Liu Yan.
"Senior Brother, does he really have that thing on him?" Liu Yan asked doubtfully.
"I think it's true. Longhe wouldn't dare to lie to me."
"Then this matter is too serious. We shouldn't act rashly. When we return to the sect, it won't be up to him to decide whether he wants to hand it over or not."
Huo Shi said, "Junior Sister, it's not right. If we ask him to hand it over after we return to the sect, the merit won't be ours. Think about it, that thing's value is shocking. Everyone in the Azure Dragon Continent is jealous. If we hand it over to the sect, we'll get a huge reward."
"But if we snatch it from him and he doesn't admit defeat, wouldn't the sect be in danger? It might even be destroyed." Liu Yan said worriedly.
Killing intent flickered in Huo Shi's eyes. Liu Yan knew what he was thinking without him saying it.
Huo Shi rolled up his sleeves, revealing a black bracelet. With a flicker of light, a foot-long brocade box appeared. "Junior Sister, there's a Blood Devouring Worm King Of Worms inside. I've already refined it into a Corpse Chief. When he comes back with water, I'll release the King Of Worms. At that time, he'll be dead."
"Isn't that too cruel? Moreover, he's Elder Lin's close friend." Liu Yan was a woman after all. She couldn't accept such a vicious method of destroying the corpse.
Huo Shi said, "Junior Sister, I know you're kind and can't bear to do it. However, you can't be soft-hearted when doing big things. Otherwise, there will be endless troubles. As for Lin Shan, he's just a Deacon Elder. Just find an excuse and he won't dare to pursue the matter."
"For the sect's safety, it seems like this is the only way." Liu Yan hesitated for a moment before nodding.
Wutian squatted on the shore, carefully watching the two whispering to each other. From the killing intent flashing between their brows, he understood that his previous calculations were accurate.
However, the only thing he couldn't figure out was why the two of them wanted to harm him.
All the items appeared in Wutian's mind. In the end, he discovered that besides Little Tian, there was nothing else on him that could make Huo Shi and Huo Shi covet.
"Did they discover Little Tian's identity? Or perhaps … the token? That's right, it must be the token! "
Aside from him, no one else knew about the Yuan Swallowing Frog's identity. Moreover, when they were in the air, their attitude towards the Yuan Swallowing Frog was clear. The only explanation was the token.
"Did Long He tell on me?" Thinking of this, Wutian naturally thought of Long He. He was the only one who knew about the token.
Wutian used the river water to wash the sweat off his face. His face was covered in sweat in the middle of winter. Clearly, he was extremely nervous.
Looking at the rushing river, Wutian thought flashed through his mind. In the end, he still wanted to confirm it. He still couldn't believe that Long He would betray him and the villagers he had known for many years for the token.
Wutian secretly took out the token and placed it on the ground. Then, he shouted, "Senior Brother Huo, Senior Sister Liu, look! There's a token here!"
"A token?"
When the two who were secretly plotting heard this, they immediately raised their heads and looked over. When they saw Wutian pick up a black token from the ground, their faces were filled with shock before it turned into joy.
"Junior Brother Wutian, quickly give it to me," Huo Shi said anxiously.
Seeing this, Wutian's hope was finally shattered. If he still couldn't see through the two's expressions, then he would be an idiot.
"Long He, you're ruthless!" Wutian lamented in his heart.
Wutian had lived in a small mountain village for many years. Coupled with Long Shan's teachings, his heart was simple and kind. Even though Long He had killed him to steal his treasure, he still didn't want to believe that he would be so heartless.
However, Wutian didn't know that human greed was endless. Back then, for this token, Long He didn't hesitate to throw him off the cliff. Now that he had told this secret to others, what was so strange about it?
"Junior Brother Wutian, what are you standing there for? Quickly give it to me." Seeing that Wutian didn't move and was silent, Huo Shi urged him.
Looking at the two, Wutian turned back to look at the river. Gritting his teeth, he directly jumped into the river. The turbulent river water instantly submerged him, and he disappeared without a trace.
Huo Shi and Liu Shi were stunned for a moment before they came back to their senses. They knew that Wutian had seen through their scheme.
