202. Teleportation Escape
202. Teleportation Escape
At the same time that the Dou Sheng appeared, Xiao Yan felt a powerful spatial force gathering around him. Then, his feet suddenly lost their footing, and the space around him was distorted, with endless darkness and nothingness all around him.
At the same time, a storage ring appeared out of thin air in front of Xiao Yan, and Yan Di's voice rang in Xiao Yan's mind.
"I won't let you help for nothing. Consider the contents of the storage ring as my reward. As for your friend, there's nothing I can do about it..."
Then a wave of dizziness washed over him, and Xiao Yan realized that the scene before him had suddenly changed. The spatial passage seemed to have completely disappeared from his sight, and he and his companions had already vanished into an endless dark space. They were like streaks of light, traversing through the immeasurable void, and where they would end up was no longer under their control.
As Xiao Yan disappeared, Huo Zhi, Zi Yan, and Xiao Yi Xian also vanished from their spots. Yan Di saw that Huo Zhi had also disappeared into the spatial passage along with Xiao Yan, and his eyes were filled with relief.
Some memories also surged into Yan Di's mind along with Huo Zhi's disappearance.
"You're here to protect me, right? What's your name...?"
"Uncle Di, how difficult is it to inherit the family's unique flame? My parents both told me it would be my honor, but I'm so scared."
"Uncle Di, I did it! Aren't you amazing? From now on, you should call me the mighty Lord of the Crimson Lotus Karmic Fire!"
"Uncle Di, which cultivation method should I choose? Can I choose the same one as you?"
"Uncle Di, I sneaked out again. The Grand Elder is so fierce. I can only rest for one hour a day, otherwise Mom and Dad will be punished. Luckily, Uncle Di won't be punished, hehehe."
"The Grand Elder didn't blame me yesterday, he just said he wanted to replace you, but that won't do. I told the Grand Elder I'll definitely behave!"
"Uncle Di, this fighting technique is so difficult, can you demonstrate it for me?"
"Tomorrow is the clan's grand competition. Uncle Di, just you wait, I'll beat them to a pulp and show them the power of the Red Lotus Karmic Fire!"
"Uncle Di, I'm number one! Although Huo Xuan is definitely letting me win, it doesn't matter. I'll defeat him with my own strength sooner or later."
"Uncle Di, the young men from the ancient tribe are coming to challenge us. I heard they're very powerful!"
"And that Gu Yao, what's with all the arrogance? He still got a beating from Huo Xuan. But that Gu Qingyang is really powerful, and he seems like a decent guy too."
"Hey, Uncle Di, don't talk nonsense! I would never like Gu Qingyang... If I were to like someone, it would be someone who is also of the fire element!"
"Uncle Di, I'm going into seclusion now. Here's all the wine I bought for you, enjoy it slowly."
"Uncle Di, I've become stronger again. From now on, I'll protect you!"
"Uncle Di, I sense the aura of the Red Lotus Karmic Fire, but it's very far away!"
"Uncle Di, where do you think the Red Lotus Karmic Fire will be?"
"Thank you, Uncle Di. I'll be going now!"
"Then I'll have Xiao Yan brew this medicinal wine for you every day from now on."
"I will definitely take care of Uncle Di in his old age when the time comes..."
The past flashed before Yan Di's eyes. Looking at the spot where Huo Zhi had disappeared, Yan Di murmured softly, "Little Zhi, Uncle Di won't be able to protect you anymore..."
The Soul Clan's Battle Saint was also enraged by the situation before him. He used all his power to conceal his presence, as it was extremely difficult to ambush and kill members of the Flame Clan in the Flame Clan's exclusive travel passage! Yan Di's momentum was too great, and in order to prevent Yan Di's attack from damaging the spatial passage, he had no choice but to spare one-tenth of his power to appear and stop him. However, in that instant, Yan Di managed to find an opening!
The aura of a Soul Clan Battle Saint loomed over Yan Di as he asked, "Where did they go?"
He still has to use most of his power to conceal his aura, so he can't directly chase after Xiao Yan and the others. Yan Di's mastery of spatial control is far superior to that of the Soul Palace's Sacrificial Spirit Venerable. To find the direction of Xiao Yan and the others, he needs a specific direction!
Yan Di, sensing the domineering pressure of the Dou Sheng aura, smiled calmly: "What? Even the Dou Sheng experts of the Soul Palace are helpless?"
As soon as Yan Di finished speaking, his body began to burn.
"Want to die?"
With a flick of his battle qi, the Soul Clan's Battle Saint controlled Yan Di, channeling a surge of battle qi into Yan Di's body. He wouldn't allow Yan Di to die like that! But as soon as the battle qi was injected, he frowned. He discovered that Yan Di's internal organs were almost completely burned away, and Yan Di's soul was extremely weak, like a candle flickering in the wind, barely clinging to life.
Just now, Yan Di forcibly swallowed a large amount of medicinal wine. Although the fire energy in it allowed him to unleash his strongest attack in his life, it also damaged his internal organs. Afterwards, he seized the opportunity to burn almost all of his soul and used a gap to teleport Xiao Yan and the other three away.
They are now certain to die!
However, Yan Di's face was still tinged with guilt. "Clan leader, elders, please forgive Yan Di's selfishness. If the spatial passage is damaged, Xiao Zhi will surely die. The traitor will have to be discovered by you."
With a trace of guilt, Yan Di disappeared from the world completely.
The Soul Clan's Battle Saint raised his hand and turned Yan Di's remains into specks of dust. Yan Di had self-destructed too much; even if he used all his strength, he could only keep Yan Di from dying immediately with his battle qi. The current situation did not allow him to do that.
When the Sacrificial Spirit Celestial Venerable and the Radiant Nether Venerable arrived before the Soul Clan's Battle Saint, they remained silent, awaiting his instructions.
The Soul Clan Battle Saint glanced at the two of them and snorted coldly, "Useless things!"
Finally, the Celestial Venerable of Sacrificial Spirits mustered his courage and asked, "Holy Lord, what is our next move?"
"Spiritual Priest, return to the Soul Palace immediately and report everything to the Palace Master. Then, hunt down those people. If that member of the Flame Clan is discovered, not only will we perish, but everyone in the Soul Palace will be wiped out!"
"Huiyou, erase all traces here, then we'll go find those people ourselves!"
"Yes, sir!"
Soul Desolate Saint Lord was extremely anxious at this moment. The mission, which had seemed a sure thing, had not only failed to capture Xiao Yan, whom he had initially valued, but even the spies within the Yan Clan might be exposed. Moreover, he had no idea where Yan Di had teleported Xiao Yan and the others; the Dou Qi Continent was vast, and finding even a few people was incredibly difficult!
"Xiao Yan, I will make sure you all die a horrible death!!!" The angry words echoed through the long spatial passage!
