The vast and boundless Fire Maple Forest was thousands of kilometers deep. Even with Xiao Yan's speed, it took him two days to travel south. Until now, there was already an endless bright red sea of fire behind him. At this moment, there was a green mountain in front of Xiao Yan that rose into the sky.
At the foot of the green mountain, on the east side of the cliff, a graceful figure was sitting quietly.
The lady also opened her eyes when Xiao Yan arrived at this place. Their gazes immediately collided.
"It's you … Li Bingrui!"
Xiao Yan involuntarily frowned when he saw that this woman had actually appeared in this place. His expression was somewhat surprised. It was unexpected that he would actually meet her again after parting back then. It was really as Li Bing Rui had said.
"I told you that we would meet again. I've been waiting for you here for more than two months. You really did come, but you're much later than I expected."
Li Bingrui was expressionless and cold. She seemed to have expected Xiao Yan's arrival.
"You knew I would come?"
He frowned. He had only met this woman a few times. How did she know he would come here?
"For the Hellfire of the Red Lotus, you must come here."
"Red … the Hellfire of the Red Lotus is here!"
The expression on Xiao Yan's face was initially startled when these words were uttered. Soon after, it turned into an endless wild joy. Since this was the case, his trip to the Fire Maple Forest was not in vain!
Raising his head to look at the green mountain in front of him, Xiao Yan's blood was instantly ignited. Since he had found the Red Lotus Hellfire, it meant that his cultivation could advance further.
As he thought of this, Xiao Yan involuntarily quickened his footsteps and walked toward the valley behind Li Bing Rui.
"Stop!"
However, in the next second, at the same time as the cold voice sounded, an icy-cold bone piercing longsword suddenly passed in front of Xiao Yan. The sharp sword aura caused Xiao Yan's advancing footsteps to instantly stop. His body also unconsciously took two steps back. When he raised his eyes to take a look, Li Bingrui's figure had already appeared in front of him. The tip of the icy-cold longsword in her hand turned and pointed at him.
"What is the meaning of this?"
Frowning, Xiao Yan was thinking about the Heavenly Fire. How could he be in the mood to care about this girl?
"Why do you think I am waiting for you here? If you want to see my master, you have to go through me first!"
The expression on Xiao Yan's face immediately changed after her words sounded. His heart felt incomparably shocked because of this. Master. The person that Li Bingrui was referring to was undoubtedly Ye Hong Lian. However, Ye Hong Lian was a 'Heavenly Flame' and possessed a violent affinity. How could she have a disciple who practiced the ice affinity? This was too unbelievable.
However, after hearing Li Bingrui's words, Xiao Yan understood that the 'them' that Li Bingrui had mentioned to Xiao Yan back then should be referring to Gu You and Hai Mochen. Only Li Bingrui, who was well aware of this, would know that the two of them existed in Xiao Yan's body.
"I have come here to look for senior Ye Hong Lian. I do not wish to have any dispute with you."
After a moment of thought, Xiao Yan shook his head gently in the end. Li Bingrui was Ye Hong Lian's disciple after all, so he obviously needed to be polite when he spoke to her. At the same time, Luo Jin seemed to have an extremely deep impression of this woman from the moment he saw her. If he attacked Li Bingrui, it would probably be difficult for him to explain himself to Luo Jin.
"If you want to see my master, you have to defeat me. Otherwise, I will use everything I have to stop you. Killing you is also within the scope of stopping you."
However, Li Bing Rui did not show the slightest bit of mercy in the face of Xiao Yan's words. The longsword in her hand suddenly pierced toward Xiao Yan at the same time as the words in her mouth sounded, aiming at the spot between his brows.
Swish …
However, what her sword had pierced was merely an afterimage of Xiao Yan.
"What!"
Li Bingrui was immediately shocked when she saw this. They were both at Returnance, but Xiao Yan was much faster than her. She actually failed to discover how Xiao Yan had dodged the attack. It was truly strange.
When Li Bingrui turned around, Xiao Yan had already appeared outside the valley. Looking at the stairs before him, Xiao Yan slowly made his way up.
Since he had come to someone else's territory, he had to follow the rules. All he needed to do was climb the stairs.
"Get down!"
In the next moment, Li Bingrui appeared in a flash again. She swung her sword viciously, but Xiao Yan twisted his body and bent his waist. He managed to dodge the attack at an extremely strange angle. As he stood up, a stream of energy suddenly shot out from the sword. It shot up from the bottom, targeting Xiao Yan's crotch.
"You're going to end my lineage!"
Alarmed, Xiao Yan could only retreat helplessly. The moment he stopped, he immediately used the Force Elephant Technique and blasted the stream of energy away with a punch. However, at the same time, an extremely cold presence wrapped around Xiao Yan's fist. A thin layer of ice rapidly spread across his right arm. The extreme coldness caused Xiao Yan's body to feel piercing pain.
"Boom!"
With a thought, Heavenly Fire ignited and gradually melted the thin layer of ice. However, this scene also left Xiao Yan extremely shocked.
It was merely a thin layer of ice, yet it was able to endure for a couple of breaths under his' Heavenly Flame '. In Xiao Yan's past experience, other than the Extreme Cold Ice Soul, there was no other ice that could endure under his' Heavenly Flame '. Yet, Li Bingrui's ice was actually able to …
"Hmph, my ice Genesis Qi has long been able to withstand the corrosion of Heavenly Fire under master's training. In this world, there is no flame that can suppress me, not even you!"
Sensing the surprise in Xiao Yan's heart, Li Bingrui coldly snorted. Her body flickered again and her sword rapidly rotated. In the blink of an eye, several streams of energy shot out one after another. Even Xiao Yan couldn't avoid them. Left with no choice, he could only block them with his Heavenly Fire. As he retreated, Xiao Yan landed on the steps that led to the depths of the valley.
"Leave this place and I can pretend that nothing happened. If you don't come again, I won't find trouble with you."
Li Bingrui stood on the steps and coldly stared at Xiao Yan. Her tone was especially resolute.
In order to not leave master and not let her master disappear from this world, she would never allow Xiao Yan to take a single step into the valley. She had painstakingly trained over the years and trained across the continents so that she could one day chase away those who came looking for Ye Honglian. She would not allow anyone to step into the pure land that was the Fire Maple Forest.
"I'm sorry, I can understand how important your master is to you, but I also hope that you can understand that finding her is my decision and no one can stop me."
Xiao Yan shook his head. As his voice faded, he activated the Giant Elephant Art.
