The Ninth Heavens Sacred Flame lived up to its name of being domineering.
Anything with extreme Yang would be affected by the Ninth Heavens Sacred Flame, unless it was an item with extreme Yin like the Deep Ice. His opponent was only a level two Heavenly Master, how could he resist the power of the Ninth Heavens Sacred Flame?
The moment the Ninth Heavens Sacred Flame touched his body, the battle was already over.
If it had hit his limbs, he might have been able to save his life. Unfortunately, he was hit in the head. The Ninth Heavens Sacred Flame instantly wrapped around his head and quickly spread to his entire body.
In just two short breaths, the person who was still alive a moment ago had completely disappeared from this world. Not even a trace of ash could be found.
On the side, Lu An was panting slightly. The continuous burst of speed and power just now had put a burden on his body. However, he was very happy to be able to kill a level two Heavenly Master without relying on the realm of the Demon Gods.
Of course, this also took into account his opponent's combat skills that could be said to be at the level of a student in the academy. If his opponent's skills were not so bad, he would not have won so easily.
However, the most important thing was that he had the Deep Ice and the Ninth Heavens Sacred Flame. The power of these two items, Yin and Yang, was far beyond what he should be able to use at his realm. These two items had always been his trump cards.
Bending down, Lu An found a ring on the ground. He bent down and picked up the ring. It was obviously a relic left behind by a level two Heavenly Master. However, under the Ninth Heavens Sacred Flame, the ring was also burned into a tattered state. Lu An could only try to control the space ring to see if he could still take out something from it.
After a while, Lu An's consciousness finally entered the space ring. Unfortunately, he found that there was nothing in the space ring other than a large amount of wealth. He could only take all of it. After all, no one would complain about having more money.
After doing all this, he stood up straight and looked around. At this moment, a shocking scene appeared.
The surrounding snakes did not escape because of the battle. Instead, more and more of them gathered, and every pair of eyes was looking at him. Under the perception of the Scorching Sun Nine Suns, he felt that there were close to a hundred poisonous snakes around him!
Sensing so many venomous snakes, Lu An couldn't help but shudder all over! He frowned and immediately covered his entire body with the Nine Heavens Sacred Flame. Snakes were naturally afraid of fire. With the Nine Heavens Sacred Flame on him, these venomous snakes probably wouldn't dare to harass him.
He didn't dare to stay any longer. Since there was nothing here other than snakes, he jumped up and left quickly, heading back the way he came.

On the beach.
Xiao Tong sat alone on the beach and looked back at the forest from time to time. Young Master had been in there for a long time. She did not know why he had not come out yet.
Moreover, not long after the young master entered, she discovered that a group of people had followed him into the forest. Although she wasn't sure if those people wanted to harm the Young Master, it was very likely. This was because she had seen with her own eyes how those people had communicated with the relative of the City Lord's Mansion before entering the forest.
The more time passed, the more worried she became. In the cold sea breeze, her palms were even sweating.
At this moment, a figure suddenly stood in front of her. She was stunned and quickly turned her head to look. She realized that it was Supervisor Xu!
Xiaotong quickly got up and bowed to Xu Li respectfully. "Greetings, Supervisor."
"Why are you here alone?" Xu Li looked at Xiaotong and asked with a frown.
"Supervisor, the guest wants to go into the forest alone. He ordered me to sit here and wait for him." Xiaotong quickly answered.
Xu Li's frown deepened. How could she not remember that Xiaotong's guest was that young man? However, she sighed softly and said to Xiaotong, "Go back to the ship."
Xiaotong was stunned when she heard that. She raised her head and looked at Xu Li in shock. Puzzled, she asked, "But, the guest, he …"
"He won't be coming back." Xu Li did not explain further. She said calmly, "I told you to go back, so go back. Why are you spouting so much nonsense?"
Xiaotong was stunned again. Then, a wave of panic covered her face.
Xu Li saw the change in Xiaotong's expression and knew that Xiaotong could have guessed what had happened. She then said in a low voice, "If you want to live, pretend that you don't know anything. If someone asks, just say that the guest entered the forest and never came back. As for the rest, just say that you don't know anything. Do you understand? "
"I …" Xiaotong's eyes widened. Her eyes instantly turned red. She choked and did not know what to say. "I …"
"What about you?" Xu Li frowned and said in a low voice, "He's just a guest. It has nothing to do with you. Don't tell me that he bought you and developed feelings for you?"
"…"
Xiaotong was in a daze. She almost fell onto the beach. Xu Li was right. Lu An did buy her. However, in the past eight days, he did not do anything inappropriate to her. He even avoided all the things that men and women should not touch each other. He was also polite to her.
She had never met such a guest before!
Lu An gave her everything that was delicious, useful, and fun. In the past eight days, she stayed in the Sky Room like a guest. This was the happiest time she had ever had since she was sold to the Sky Room. It was also the happiest time she had ever had!
Beside her, Xu Li looked at Xiaotong in shock. She was also a woman, so she could understand Xiaotong's expression. Even if Xiaotong did not like that young man, she had definitely developed feelings for him. She did not understand. Logically speaking, people like her should have understood the fickleness of the world. Why would she develop feelings for him?
Or could it be that the young man was really different?
Looking at Xiaotong, Xu Li was not so strict. She walked up to her and patted her shoulder gently. She said, "No matter what happened, or if nothing happened, he's just a passerby."
After saying that, Xu Li turned to look at where Meng Zhuang was. He was surrounded by a lot of people. Many businessmen were trying to curry favor with him. Although Meng Zhuang's character was not good, this was how the world worked. Power was more important than anything else.
At this moment, Meng Zhuang suddenly turned to look at Xu Li. Then, he got up and walked toward Xu Li under everyone's gaze.
After walking across half of the beach, Meng Zhuang came to Xu Li with his entourage. His heroic posture attracted everyone's attention. He became the focus of the entire beach.
"Supervisor Xu!" Meng Zhuang came to Xu Li and Xiaotong and said with a smile, "I haven't seen you in three days. You've become prettier!"
"Brother Meng, what are you saying!" Xu Li smiled. The smile on her face was so natural that it disappeared. She said, "You're getting better at praising others!"
"I'm a straightforward person. I'm just saying what I should say!" Meng Zhuang laughed and said, "Also, I haven't had the chance to thank you for the good idea you gave me! Even if you let me get my revenge, I won't make things difficult for you. Supervisor Xu, you're so smart! "
"You're too kind," Xu Li said with a smile.
On the side, Xiaotong's body trembled. She looked at Xu Li in disbelief. Her whole body was numb. At this moment, she realized that Xu Li was also involved in this matter!
"After solving that problem today, I can set my mind at ease to deal with that woman." Thinking of this, the smile on Meng Zhuang's face became wider and wider. He said, "I've never seen such a beautiful woman in my life. When the time comes, Supervisor Xu, please turn a blind eye!"
"Brother Meng, don't worry." Xu Li smiled and said, "I definitely won't ruin your good fortune."
"Since Supervisor Xu is so willing to help, I, Meng Zhuang, will not shortchange you! When I go back and talk to your boss, I'll also promote you! " Meng Zhuang smiled and raised his eyebrows. He said meaningfully, "When the time comes, we'll have more opportunities to communicate."
"Brother Meng, you must be joking. You can look for me anytime you want!" Xu Li said with a smile. Xiaotong found it hard to imagine how such words came out of the dignified Supervisor Xu's mouth!
At this moment, Meng Zhuang finally noticed the maid behind Xu Li. He turned his head and looked at Xiaotong with interest. He couldn't help but purse his lips and said, "Who's this girl? Why haven't I seen her before?"
"Her!" Xu Li looked back at Xiaotong and said with a smile, "She's also the maid of the Sky Room. She was bought by that young man, so you haven't seen her before."
"He bought her!" Meng Zhuang licked his lips and said with a cold smile, "That young man won't be coming back. Is it okay to give her to me?"
Xu Li was stunned. She knew Meng Zhuang's temper. If she handed Xiaotong to him, would she still be alive?
She turned around to take a look and realized that Xiao Tong was looking at her in horror. Her heart softened and the expression on her face froze. She looked back at Meng Zhuang.
However, looking at Meng Zhuang's lustful eyes, she gritted her teeth and said, "Okay."
Xiaotong was stunned and looked at Xu Li with a shocked expression. At this moment, Meng Zhuang laughed out loud and said to the people behind him, "Bring her to my room."
"Yes!" The few people said with a lewd smile. They came to Xiaotong's side and grabbed her while she was struggling.
"No! Let go of me! "Xiaotong screamed and her voice echoed on the beach. However, the people around her didn't say a word. Some of them even looked at her with disdain.
She was just a maid. Why was she acting so noble?
Xiaotong's mouth was covered and her body was lifted into the air. She was carried to the boat. On the other side, Meng Zhuang and Xu Li ignored it and continued to chat.
This was the reality.
Xiaotong's tears flowed freely. No matter how hard she struggled, she was powerless. She didn't expect that happiness and despair could change so quickly.
At this moment, a voice suddenly sounded on the beach!
"Put her down!"
