Chapter 2025: Chapter 2023: What Problems Might Huo Tian Have?
[Seeking monthly votes!]
Ye Tianchen and Huo Xianer never expected that the Holy Master of the Fire God Sacred Land, Huo Tian, would come here, find them, and seemingly be aware of Huo Xun’s malicious nature. Huo Tian also wanted to clean house, but unfortunately, Huo Xun’s cultivation realm was profound. Moreover, as the Supreme Elder of the Fire God Sacred Land, he had high prestige, and for a moment, Huo Tian couldn’t think of a proper method. It seemed like he was consulting with Huo Xianer, showing great care and importance towards her!
However, Ye Tianchen felt that Huo Tian was not simple at all. Although it wasn’t obvious what kind of person he was, Ye Tianchen always felt that there was also a sinister aura around Huo Tian, hidden very deeply. He could only sense a tiny bit of it!
"Holy Master, even with your late stage Martial Saint cultivation realm, you can’t defeat Huo Xun?" Huo Xianer asked with some disbelief.
Huo Tian, being able to become the Holy Master of the Fire God Sacred Land hundreds of years ago, must be a favored child of the heavens and an extraordinary existence. It’s important to know, even though the Fire God Sacred Land has been passed down until now, lacking the prosperity of ancient times with countless outstanding talents, there were still many strong contenders. Huo Tian emerging victorious and being recognized by so many different lineages within the Fire God Sacred Land was certainly not a mediocre achievement!
"No, even if I could eliminate Huo Xun, it doesn’t mean I could do so in one strike. As long as I can’t quickly kill Huo Xun, he’s very likely to initiate an internal war within our Fire God Sacred Land. This isn’t a scene I want to witness, and surely you wouldn’t want to see our disciples of the Fire God Sacred Land killing each other!" Huo Tian shook his head and said.
"But if things continue like this, Huo Xun’s conspiracy won’t be exposed, and as long as he’s still alive, it’s extremely detrimental to our Fire God Sacred Land!" Huo Xianer said anxiously.
Huo Tian shook his head, glanced at Ye Tianchen beside him, and then changed the topic: "Xianer, I saw just now that you seemed to be stimulating the power of your bloodline. Did you find the way to enter the formation left by the ancient Fire God Ancestor?"
"Reporting to the Holy Master, indeed I have found it, I..." Huo Xianer hadn’t finished her sentence, but was interrupted by Ye Tianchen!
"The method we found was just a trial, and it obviously failed. We need to rediscover the correct method!" Ye Tianchen said.
Upon hearing Ye Tianchen’s words, Huo Tian frowned heavily, seeming a bit displeased, but it quickly disappeared. Then he looked at Huo Xianer and said, "It’s okay, take your time. The inheritance of the ancient Fire God Ancestor is destined to be yours!"
"Holy Master, it’s something that belongs to our entire Fire God Sacred Land. Even if Xianer finds the correct way to enter and obtains the inheritance of the Fire God Ancestor, I will share it with everyone and will definitely not keep it private!" Huo Xianer said earnestly.
"Xianer, it’s good that you think that way. In my heart, you are the Holy Master of the Fire God Sacred Land. You are the master of the Fire God Sacred Land, the next existence of the ancient Fire God. You are the only person with the bloodline inheritance of the ancient Fire God Ancestor on your body. We protect you and cherish you without question. Sooner or later, I will personally hand over the position of Holy Master to you!" Huo Tian said solemnly.
"Xianer here thanks the Holy Master for your great love. However, Huo Xun, as the Supreme Elder of our Fire God Sacred Land, is so malicious, with such malicious thoughts, and this time his nature has been exposed. I think very soon he will come up with even more vicious means. We must stop him as soon as possible!" Huo Xianer said worriedly.
"I know, killing Huo Xun is the best way, but he’s not that easy to kill. With my cultivation realm, at most I can only fight him to a draw, and you are of no help. If only I had a powerful treasure..." While speaking, Huo Tian couldn’t help but look at Ye Tianchen.
"Holy Master, do you mean..." Huo Xianer paused in surprise!
"The Fire God Gourd!" Huo Tian calmly looked at Ye Tianchen and said.
Ye Tianchen frowned again, glancing at Huo Xianer. It seemed Huo Xianer was also troubled. Frankly, Ye Tianchen could understand Huo Xianer’s predicament. Huo Xianer was a responsible and kind-hearted girl. The thought of Huo Xun’s evil deeds leading to a cruel internal war in the Fire God Sacred Land, causing rivers of blood, made her extremely worried. If it could prevent Huo Xun, Huo Xianer was even willing to sacrifice her own life because she felt it was an inescapable responsibility as a person with the ancient Fire God bloodline inheritance!
"The Fire God Gourd is indeed in my possession, but I cannot hand it over to you. As I said before, the Fire God Gourd was lent to me by a friend. Even if it is something belonging to your Fire God Sacred Land, I need my friend’s consent, otherwise, there’s no way I can hand it over!" Ye Tianchen said, looking at Huo Tian.
"I know the Fire God Gourd is with you, and I can tell you I don’t intend for you to hand over the Fire God Gourd. It’s just that our Fire God Sacred Land is in trouble now, and I need the Fire God Gourd to calm this storm, to avoid causing disaster or a river of blood in the Fire God Sacred Land. I’m not asking to take back our Fire God Sacred Land’s Fire God Gourd, I just want to borrow it for a while..." Huo Tian stared into Ye Tianchen’s eyes as he spoke.
Hearing Huo Tian’s words, Ye Tianchen couldn’t help but be stunned. He didn’t expect Huo Tian to be so scheming and deep. His words left Ye Tianchen almost unable to rebute. However, no matter what, Ye Tianchen would not hand over the Fire God Gourd. Otherwise, how could he explain to Tianshuang?
"The Fire God Gourd was lent to me by a friend, and I have no right to lend it to you. To be candid, if it gets lost, how would I explain it to my friend?" Ye Tianchen also directly stared into Huo Tian’s eyes and said.
"As the Holy Master of the Fire God Sacred Land, do you think I would deceive you? Do you think I would break my word? I only want to borrow it, and once I am done, Xianer will return it to you!" Huo Tian said with some anger.
"No way!" Ye Tianchen bluntly replied with these two words.
Boom!
Suddenly, a powerful force surged from Huo Tian’s body, directly sweeping towards Ye Tianchen. It was incredibly astonishing, as everything around was pushed away, shattered as if by an explosion. Ye Tianchen was shocked, but he did not back down. In his eyes, Huo Tian was not a simple character and was not as righteous and serious as he appeared on the surface!
Boom!
Ye Tianchen also released his powerful aura, clashing with the aura released by Huo Tian. Surprisingly, it was a balanced standoff, which made Huo Tian frown. He probably hadn’t expected Ye Tianchen’s strength to be so formidable, enough to contend with him!
"I will say this one last time: if you lend me the Fire God Gourd, I will have Xianer return it to you when I’m done. Should you agree, you will be the benefactor of my Fire God Sacred Land. If you refuse, don’t blame me for being merciless!" Huo Tian said coldly, staring at Ye Tianchen.
"I’ll also say this one last time: the Fire God Gourd was lent to me by a friend for self-defense, and there’s no way I can lend it to you. If you want to fight, then fight it is!" Ye Tianchen stood his ground, not retreating a single step.
Swoosh!
Suddenly, Huo Xianer hurried to stand between Huo Tian and Ye Tianchen, stopping them from engaging in a battle. Huo Tian glanced at Huo Xianer, speaking in a reproachful tone, "Xianer, what are you doing? Do you know what you’re doing? Are you planning to disregard so many people of the Fire God Sacred Land?"
"Holy Master, I... rest assured, I will bring the Fire God Gourd back as soon as possible and will certainly persuade my friend. Please give me this opportunity!" Huo Xianer pleaded.
"You... alright, Xianer, you must understand the severity of the situation. I’ll give you this opportunity. If you return with the Fire God Gourd, I will let bygones be bygones. If you cannot bring it back, I will expel you from the Fire God Sacred Land. This is my command as the Holy Master, and my word is final!" Huo Tian spoke with anger.
"Holy Master... thank you, Holy Master!" Huo Xianer was somewhat surprised but eventually nodded in agreement.
Swoosh!
Huo Tian left, disappearing amidst the ruins, while Ye Tianchen frowned, glanced at Huo Xianer, and said, "Did you notice anything strange?"
"What strange thing? Tianchen, our Holy Master is also working for the prosperity of the Fire God Sacred Land..." Huo Xianer’s words were interrupted by Ye Tianchen!
"Xianer, you’re too naive, too trusting of people. Didn’t you sense anything strange about your Holy Master?" Ye Tianchen asked seriously, looking at Huo Xianer.
"Strange? No, the Holy Master has always been training outside, rarely returning to the Sacred Land. No one has much contact with him!" Huo Xianer shook her head.
Ye Tianchen furrowed his brow, then looked at Huo Xianer and said, "What kind of person is your Holy Master? What are his intentions? I’m not sure, but when I faced him just now, I felt that it was like a ferocious ancient beast was hidden inside him. That aura was very distinct, lurking within, ready to deliver a fatal blow when necessary!"
"A ferocious ancient beast? Hidden inside the Holy Master? This..." Huo Xianer was shocked, somewhat stunned, and asked.
"In any case, I think it’s necessary to be cautious of your Holy Master. If there’s an opportunity, investigate his background thoroughly. He’s not as simple as you imagine!" Ye Tianchen nodded.
The Holy Master of the Fire God Sacred Land always gave Ye Tianchen a bad feeling. This feeling was that while Huo Xun was an obvious villain, Huo Tian likely hid the potential to be a Great Demon...(To be continued.
