Seeing the white-haired man suddenly appear, both the red-clothed girl and the Qingyi man were shocked. The red-clothed girl hurriedly carried the Nine-tailed Spirit Fox and retreated. The Qingyi man stood in front of her and looked at Xiao Chen, “Who is Your Excellency?”

“Don’t worry about who I am. Put that spirit fox down. You can leave now.”

Xiao Chen’s voice was faint. As he spoke, he walked over. At this moment, the man from Qingyi could naturally feel a pressure as heavy as a mountain. Perhaps this person’s cultivation was far above his own.

“This Nine-tailed Fire Spirit Fox is something that Junior Sister and I have been guarding on Mount Shu for three months. We used all kinds of methods to lure it into appearance. It’s hard for you to force us to hand over the Spirit Fox as soon as you arrive …” Xiao Chen said vigilantly as he retreated with the red-clothed girl in his hand.

As he spoke, he sent a secret message to the red-clothed girl behind him, “Little sister, I’ll think of a way to stall this person. Take advantage of this opportunity to leave with the Spirit Fox.”

Hearing this, the girl in red trembled slightly. Even the slightest change in expression on her face could not escape Xiao Chen’s eyes.

“If both of you are confident that you can go faster than my divine sense, you can give it a try.”

Xiao Chen’s gaze became even colder. Step by step, he walked up. The red-clothed girl’s face immediately turned pale and she tightened her grip on the Fire Spirit Fox. Could it be that this person could hear the secret message that Senior Brother had passed on to him?

“You … you stop!”

The girl in red forced herself to calm down. She looked at him and said, “This Nine-tailed Fire Spirit Fox was found by Senior Brother and I with great difficulty. It was also captured by us here. You’re not being reasonable anymore. Don’t think that you can bully us just because your cultivation is high … Hmph!”

Xiao Chen said indifferently, “If this Nine-tailed Fire Spirit Fox hadn’t been chased by me for a whole day and night, and was exhausted, how could it have panicked and barged into the trap you set? Forget it, I don’t want to talk to you anymore and hand over the Spirit Fox, otherwise … kill it.”

The cold word’kill ’caused both of their bodies to tremble. The Qingyi man’s heart was even colder. At this moment, he clearly felt an extremely heavy killing intent. This person in front of him actually possessed such a heavy killing intent! If I don’t hand over the Spirit Fox today, most likely …

However, this Nine-tailed Fire Spirit Fox was meant to be used to save Junior Brother …

At this moment, he had already made up his mind to protect the red-clothed girl tightly behind him. He coldly looked at Xiao Chen and said, “Your Excellency can naturally kill the two of us, but at the moment of death, I will definitely kill this spirit fox as well. In this way, Your Excellency still won’t get anything …”

Hearing this, the red-clothed girl behind him turned pale and her entire body trembled slightly.

Xiao Chen said indifferently, “If you kill this Spirit Fox, then use your life to pay for it.”

The man from Qingyi said, “Your cultivation is far higher than mine and my junior sister’s. It can be said to be easy to kill both of us. However, I believe that you are also a cultivator. If you commit a crime here today, aren’t you afraid that you will fall into the Devil Abyss after crossing the tribulation in the future?”

The atmosphere became more and more tense. The red-clothed girl tightly hugged the Nine-tailed Fire Spirit Fox in her arms. Her mind was already blank, while the man from Qingyi held his breath. At this moment, he could almost hear his heartbeat pounding.

He was actually gambling when he said those words just now. For some reason, although the murderous aura in front of him was cold, he seemed to be able to sense that although this person looked as cold as frost, he did not seem to be the kind of cold-blooded person who truly killed people without blinking an eye.

At this moment, Xiao Chen was also silent. At this moment, it was as if Wei Yang’s laughter of the past had resounded in his ears, “My favorite thing is the world. I like every flower and tree in the world. I hope that they will never wither and wither …”

If Wei Yang knew that this Nine-tailed Fire Spirit Fox had been snatched by him, she would rather die from the cold than use the blood of this Nine-tailed Fire Spirit Fox as a medicine …

“Forget it.”

Xiao Chen looked at the two people in front of him and said indifferently, “Just now, I heard you two say that you want to use this Nine-tailed Fire Spirit Fox to save someone?”

Hearing this, the man from Qingyi finally breathed a sigh of relief. His heart, which had been hanging in the air, was finally relieved. This time, he had made the right bet.

The red-clothed girl behind him finally breathed a sigh of relief. She walked forward and said, “That’s right, this Nine-tailed Fire Spirit Fox is related to my brother’s life. If it wasn’t for this, it wouldn’t be a problem even if I gave it to you …”

“How stupid.”

Xiao Chen waved his sleeve and said coldly, “Not all cold injuries can be healed with the blood of the Nine-tailed Fire Spirit Fox. If a small wind chill were to be treated with the blood of the Spirit Fox, the illness would not be cured and his life would fall.”

“You …”

The red-clothed young woman frowned. Her current appearance was also adorable. She straightened her chest and said angrily, “Nonsense, my brother is not suffering from a cold. He was … six months ago.”

Without waiting for her to finish speaking, Xiao Chen flicked his sleeve and interrupted, “No matter what he suffered, anyone who knows a little about medicine will know that the Nine-tailed Fire Spirit Fox’s blood will not only fail to save his life, but will instead take his life.”

Hearing this, the red-clothed girl’s face immediately turned pale and her body trembled slightly. At this moment, the expression of the Qingyi man in front of her also became serious. He looked at Xiao Chen and said, “What did you say?”

Xiao Chen said, “The blood of the Nine-tailed Fire Spirit Fox belongs to Extreme Yang. The man’s body has a pure Yang energy. Even if the two of them can eliminate the cold poison on his body, in the end, he will be burned to death within five years.”

“What …”

Upon hearing this, the young girl’s face turned pale. She muttered, “No, that’s impossible. According to what you said, isn’t big brother hopeless? No, you lied to me. You clearly wanted to deceive Spirit Fox. I don’t believe you … Senior Brother Yin, let’s go, don’t listen to him …”

“Little sister, wait …”

The man from Qingyi raised his hand. At this moment, his expression became exceptionally serious. He looked at Xiao Chen and asked doubtfully, “Did you mean what you said just now?”

“I told you, I probably don’t understand.”

Xiao Chen glanced at the two and walked forward. “How many days is this place from where you live?” He asked.

The man from Qingyi roughly understood what he meant. After thinking for a while, he said, “Little sister and I live in Shu. It’s about seven days’ journey from here.”

“Seven days … Too slow, one day.”

Xiao Chen walked towards the two of them and looked at the Qingyi man. “Tell me the exact location,” he said.

“This …”

At this moment, the man from Qingyi understood what he meant. However, his origin was unknown. Was he trustworthy?

However, on second thought, with this person’s cultivation, it would be easy for him to kill himself and his little sister and forcefully seize the Nine-tailed Fire Spirit Fox. If he was really a villain, why would he waste so much effort? Wouldn’t it be enough to directly kill him and his little sister?

And if what this person said is true and delays Junior Brother’s healing, then that would be terrible …

Thinking of this, the man from Qingyi no longer hesitated. At this moment, his gaze became fixed. He looked at Xiao Chen and said, “Alright, if you can remove the cold poison from my junior apprentice-brother’s body, this Nine-tailed Fire Spirit Fox will be given to you. I haven’t consulted you yet. How do you address it?”

“Liao Wuchen …”

…

One day later, Xiao Chen had already brought the Qingyi man and the red-clothed girl to Shu. However, they saw that the surrounding peaks stood tall and majestic as if they had entered the clouds.

“Wow … so fast.”

Originally, it took seven days, but it only took one day. The young girl was very surprised. Looking at Xiao Chen, she felt that his cultivation was unfathomable.

The man from Qingyi frowned deeply, wondering if this person actually had the cultivation of the True Cave Stage? But he doesn’t seem to be as old as himself, how is this possible …

“Shu has arrived. You two can lead the way now.” Xiao Chen turned around and said indifferently, regardless of the shock on their faces.

“Brother Wu Chen … please.”

Following that, Qingyi led the way. Two hours later, they arrived at a secluded valley. However, they saw countless stone swords half-buried underground in the valley. There were also groups of swords surrounding the mountain peaks, forming extremely formidable sword formations.

This valley was called the “Buried Sword Valley”. Along the way, Xiao Chen had already understood that the Buried Sword Valley was one of the “eighteen families in Shu”. The valley owner’s name was Gongsun Zhang.

The red-clothed girl was Gongsun Zhang’s granddaughter. Her name was Gongsun Yingxue. This Qingyi man was a disciple that Gongsun Changchang had accepted a hundred years ago. His name was Yin Jian.

As for Gongsun Yingxue’s brother who was poisoned by cold poison, his name was Gongsun Yu. There was a great enemy in the Buried Sword Valley. He was one of the eighteen Li Clans in Shu. Half a year ago, Gongsun Yu and the three Childe of the Li Clan had injured each other in the battle. Who would have thought that an old man from the Li Clan would actually step onto the stage and heavily injure him with a “Darknorth profound palm”.

Therefore, Gongsun Yu had been tormented by the cold poison for half a year, and even his entire body’s strength had dissipated. Now, his life was on the verge of death.

Of course, Xiao Chen had no interest in the battle between the eighteen families in Shu. When he removed the cold poison from Gongsun Yu’s body, he would bring the Nine-tailed Fire Spirit Fox back to Lustless Heaven as soon as possible. He thought that there should be enough time.

Moments later, the three of them had already entered the inner valley. They saw cliffs, waterfalls, pavilions, and pavilions faintly discernible. The scenery was extremely quiet.

Gongsun Yingxue had been away from home for three months. She came back today and laughed along the way. However, Yin Jian, who was beside her, had a serious expression on his face.

“Little Sister, have you noticed that the valley today … seems a little strange?”

“Ah?”

Hearing this, Gongsun Yingxue regained her senses and looked around. She did not find anything strange. Could it be that she had not returned for too long? There seems to be nothing wrong …

“There’s no one around, but the restriction formation is much heavier than usual …”

Right at this moment, Xiao Chen suddenly spoke. As he spoke, he walked forward. In the end, he shook his head again.

“Brother Wu Chen, can you tell?”

Yin Jian looked at him, thinking that he could actually see the abnormality in the valley with a single glance? But what did he mean by shaking his head in the end …
