Boundless Genesis Qi swarmed out of Xiao Yan's body as a stern cry was emitted from his mouth. An astonishing aura soared into the sky, appearing rather extraordinary.
"Hehehe, your aura is not bad, but your strength is too weak. You're ultimately just an Origin Emperor. You overestimate yourself if you want to show off in front of this sovereign!"
Gui Luo coldly chuckled when he saw Xiao Yan's reaction. The light in his sinister old eyes grew even colder.
"Hehe, what's the big deal about bullying a junior? Why don't you let this old man face you instead."
However, just as Gui Luo was coldly laughing, an unhurried old voice sounded from an unknown place and slowly resounded beside everyone's ears. At the same time, the expression on Gui Luo's old face immediately became gloomy.
"Huozhu, you're like a ghost that won't go away. I can't believe you've followed us!"
Gui Luo's hoarse and deep voice slowly came out from his mouth. When his voice fell, the expressions of everyone who heard these words could not help but change. It was hard to imagine that the battle between Heavenly Cloud Villa and Du E Sect would actually attract such an expert. It could be said that this was the first time in a hundred years that something like this had happened!
Immediately after, the space beside Xiao Yan suddenly began to distort. As a blazing aura spread, the figure of an old man in white robes appeared in the sky. The moment the old man appeared, the Heavenly Fire in Xiao Yan's body began to tremble uncontrollably. Xiao Yan's pitch-black eyes were completely fixed on the old man beside him. The strange state of the Heavenly Fire allowed him to instantly discover the old man's identity.
There were only two possibilities for the Heavenly Fire in his body to go berserk. Either the old man had refined a Heavenly Fire like him, or he was the spirit of a Heavenly Fire!
The Heavenly Fire in the world had long turned into a spirit. Besides him, it was impossible for anyone else to refine a Heavenly Fire. In other words, the old man before him …
"Haha, little friend, there's no need to be surprised. The fate between you and me has long been determined. Today, we've met, and it's also reasonable. If there's anything else, we'll talk about it later. As for now, let's focus on this group of people first."
Huo Zhu merely smiled faintly when he saw the shocked expression that was revealed on Xiao Yan's face. He immediately turned his gaze and looked at the seven heroes of the Luo clan behind him, who were in the formation. He smiled and nodded as he said,
"I've long heard of the fame of the Luo Clan's Seven Heroes. You are indeed extraordinary. Leave Gui Luo to me. As for Wu Du, I'll have to trouble you guys!"
Huo Zhu cupped his hands to the few of them in a courteous manner as he spoke. Luo Xiong and the others hurriedly returned the greeting when they saw this. Huo Zhu's appearance at such a moment had already exceeded their expectations. Moreover, from the way he treated Xiao Yan, it seemed that he had a good impression of him. This involuntarily caused them to feel some doubt in their hearts. Just when had Xiao Yan become acquainted with such an expert?
When Huo Zhu appeared, there was a commotion in the city below. Uproar after uproar sounded one after another.
"Huo Zhu is the first elder of the Celestial Cloud Sect?"
"Even he has come today. From the looks of it, he should be here for Gui Luo."
"Heh, the Celestial Cloud Sect and the Ghost Temple Sect have always been at loggerheads. First elder Huo Zhu has quite a bit of prestige in the sect and is very strong. It's said that elder Huo Zhu once fought with the sect master of the Ghost Temple Sect. Although the outcome of the battle was not decided, he is not someone that the vice sect master, Gui Luo, can compare to. With him taking action today, it seems that Gui Luo will be at his wit's end!"
When everyone saw Huo Zhu appear, their tensed hearts relaxed. If they could obtain Huo Zhu's help, the Heavenly Cloud Manor would have two Source Venerables. This way, the situation would be equal again and there would naturally be nothing to worry about.
"Huo Zhu! You were the one who stirred up the situation last time, causing this brat to be at death's door until now. If you dare to intervene again today, do you really want to shed all pretense of cordiality with my Ghost Temple Sect! "
When he saw Huo Zhu's appearance, the fury in Gui Luo's heart grew even denser. On the other hand, Xiao Yan immediately recalled the matter that had occurred in the extreme south back then. Although he did not know about it at that time, he knew that two mysterious experts had taken action because of him. Now that he heard Gui Luo's words, he finally understood that the two mysterious experts who had intervened back then were Gui Luo and Huo Zhu.
This thought flew in his heart. Connecting it to the Fallen Heart Flame that had been extracted from his body, it was not difficult for Xiao Yan to guess that elder Huo Zhu's actual body was undoubtedly the Fallen Heart Flame.
"Ke ke, brat, now is not the time to be distracted. Although the old me can help you delay Gui Luo, you will have to deal with the remaining people by yourself!"
Huo Zhu smiled slightly and reminded Xiao Yan as he glanced at the somewhat absent-minded Xiao Yan. Immediately, his body shook and he left behind an afterimage on the spot. His actual body had already appeared in the empty space in front of Gui Luo.
"Gui Luo, let's settle this between the both of us today!"
The cry had just sounded when the two human figures collided. On the other side, Luo Cheng and the group of Elders from the Heavenly Cloud Villa had once again collided with the experts from the Du E Sect. At the same time, the gazes of the seven heroes of the Luo clan also landed on Wu Du on the opposite side. The expression in their eyes became increasingly cold.
While Xiao Yan's gaze was surveying the area, a human figure wrapped in a black robe suddenly appeared in front of Xiao Yan. The human figure slowly raised his head, revealing a pair of scarlet eyes that were hidden behind a mask under the black robe. Xiao Yan was initially startled when he saw those eyes. Immediately, he curled his mouth and laughed coldly.
"So it is hall chief Xiao. Why have you come today? Have you come to die?"
Although Xiao Yan had merely glanced at him, his strange eyes allowed him to recognize the person in front of him at a glance. He was surprisingly that hall chief Xiao, who had been rescued by Gui Luo after the battle in the extreme south back then. It was unexpected that this fellow was actually still alive and standing in this place.
"Tsk tsk tsk tsk … sharp-tongued brat. The reason why I failed the last time was due to this hall chief's carelessness. This time around, however, this hall chief will personally deal with you. I want to see just how you will escape from my palm!"
Hall chief Xiao smiled faintly. His feet slowly took a step forward. Waves of strange black fog scattered from under the black robe while a powerful aura also spread out from within his body.
"Four Star Origin Sect?"
Xiao Yan raised his eyebrows and a surprised expression was revealed on his face. He did not expect that this fellow would actually be lucky enough to make a breakthrough in his cultivation after the previous battle. However, even if this was the case, he was still not within Xiao Yan's range of threat.
"Today, this hall chief will avenge my previous humiliation!"
