"Gu Xuan." Lin Hao revealed a grave expression as he looked at Gu Xuan. "Unexpectedly, there is a genius like you in a small sect. However, the difference between a small sect and a mid-sized sect is too great. Are you interested in coming to the Ice River Valley?"
"There's no need. The Ying Heaven Sect has treated me well." Gu Xuan shook his head and rejected. Although he could tell that Lin Hao was sincere in his invitation, there was no difference between a small sect and a mid-sized sect to him.
"That is truly unfortunate. A true genius is going to be buried in the hands of a small sect." Lin Hao shook his head helplessly. Those who could stay in the Ancient Flame Demon Residence were all geniuses that the sect focused on nurturing. They could not be taken away so casually.
"Cultivation still depends on the individual. A small sect might not necessarily have no future," Gu Xuan said with a smile.
"Although that is the case, the difference between a large sect and a small sect is ten times greater with the same talent. Our strengths are about the same, which means that our talent is about the same. However, I am only sixteen this year, and I am already in the same cultivation realm as you. Cultivation is about fighting for every breath. If I am one step slower, I will always be slower."
Lin Hao shook his head. Although he could sense that Gu Xuan was a 3-Star Venerate, he thought that Gu Xuan was just hiding his cultivation.
Lin Hao tossed a jade pendant to Gu Xuan. Then, he said, "If we are together, even if there are any treasures, we will get less. Let's part ways here. This is my keepsake. If you meet the people from the Ice River Valley, they should not make things difficult for you. Of course, if you change your mind, you can come to the Flame Demon Palace to look for me."
"Alright." Gu Xuan put away the jade pendant. Then, Lin Hao left. Time in the Ancient Flame Demon Residence was very precious.
"The Flame Demon Palace should be the core of the Gu Residence, right? In that case, I will definitely have to give it a try. "
Gu Xuan smiled faintly. The Flame Demon Palace was where the Flame Demon lived. This place had the most treasures and was also the most dangerous.
There were more than ten thousand small sects, ten-odd mid-sized sects, and two large sects participating in this trip to the Gu Residence.
There were very few people from these mid-sized and large sects. However, their goal was the Flame Demon Palace. That meant that if one wanted to find a place in the core, they would have to face the people from the mid-sized and large sects.
The people here were much stronger than those from small sects.
Gu Xuan was just about to move when three people surrounded Gu Xuan. The three of them revealed a cold smile on their faces.
The leader of the group was a bald young man. His eyes shone with a fierce light. "Kid, let me introduce myself. My name is Liu Jinghong. I'm from the Skyline Sect."
Gu Xuan glanced at the bald young man and suddenly smiled. "What does that have to do with me?"
"Hmm?" Beside Liu Jinghong, a young man's face darkened as he took a step forward.
"Don't be impulsive." Liu Jinghong waved his hand and stopped that person. His gaze fell on Gu Xuan again. There was a playful smile on his face. "Friend, you are really a little arrogant. Sometimes, arrogance is more personality. But sometimes, you have to pay a price for being too arrogant."
The conversation between Liu Jinghong and Gu Xuan's group also attracted the attention of everyone around. Quite a number of people's eyes contained some ridicule.
Previously, no one dared to snatch Gu Xuan's things because Lin Hao of the Ice River Valley was there. But now that Lin Hao had left, Gu Xuan, who had a high status, had become a fat sheep in their eyes.
Although the Skyline Sect was also a small sect, it was still a small sect that had an Emperor level expert. Its strength was not to be underestimated. Gu Xuan was obviously going to suffer a great loss after being targeted by them.
"I think that you guys will be the ones to pay the price." Gu Xuan looked at Liu Jinghong and the smile on his face grew wider.
"Hahaha, how interesting! Do you think that you can deal with us just because you are on par with Lin Hao? The reason why I didn't dare to go against Lin Hao is because of his background and identity. As for strength, he might not be a match for me! "
Liu Jinghong sneered. "You might not even be able to resist me alone, but I still have two junior brothers who are not much weaker than me. I advise you to stop resisting so fearlessly. Hand over the Fire-condensing Pills now and you can still keep your life."
They had foreseen Gu Xuan's strength. If he really went all out and swallowed all the Fire-condensing Pills, he would be on par with them. However, even if they killed Gu Xuan, they wouldn't get much benefit. Therefore, the three of them weren't in a hurry to attack. Instead, they chose to force Gu Xuan.
Faced with such a blatant threat, Gu Xuan's eyes revealed a trace of killing intent. He slowly said, "Then I'll give you guys a chance. Hand over your interspatial rings now and I can spare your lives."
"Looks like you really want to die. Do you think that you will be a match for us just because you want to swallow all the Fire-condensing Pills?" Liu Jinghong's eyes finally revealed a trace of impatience. He thought that they were arrogant, but he didn't expect Gu Xuan to be even more arrogant than them.
One person actually dared to force the three of them to hand over their interspatial rings.
"Swallow the Fire-condensing Pills? Why should I waste so many elixirs to deal with you guys? "
Gu Xuan smiled faintly. He took out two Fire-condensing Pills from his interspatial ring and swallowed them.
"Stop him!" Liu Jinghong's face revealed a look of excitement as he hurriedly shouted.
If Gu Xuan swallowed sixty to seventy Fire-condensing Pills in one go and his strength suddenly erupted, they wouldn't be able to resist. Even if they could resist, both sides would suffer.
However, Gu Xuan had only swallowed two Fire-condensing Pills. The increase in strength was negligible. However, these two pills had to be refined first. At this time, he couldn't swallow any more Fire-condensing Pills.
They could definitely kill Gu Xuan in this period of time!
"I didn't expect you to be so arrogant, but your actions are so stupid. Do you think that two Fire-condensing Pills can make you a match for us?"
The other two sneered. One of them suddenly grabbed at Gu Xuan.
"World Shaking Emperor Fist!"
The flame power in Gu Xuan's body surged and poured into his arm. He suddenly blasted out, tearing the air apart and making an explosion.
"Ka ka!"
That person's arm was hit by Gu Xuan. His bones were instantly shattered and his entire body flew backward like a cannonball.
"This!"
Liu Jinghong and the other person were completely stunned. Their companion's strength should be weaker than Gu Xuan, but there was no reason for the difference to be so huge. He was defeated in one move. How was this possible?
"It's your turn." Gu Xuan looked at Liu Jinghong and the other person with a cold look in his eyes.
Although he had swallowed few Fire-condensing Pills, he didn't use them to increase his strength. Instead, he continuously poured the pure energy into his chest to maintain the second star pattern.
