Eavesdropping on Inner Thoughts, Yunxiao Attacks Dingguang Immortal at the Start

Next, Duobao Daoist gave Huo Ling Shengmu some pointers and waved his hand, saying, "This Teacher is tired. Huo Ling, you may withdraw!"

"Teacher, take care!"

Huo Ling Shengmu felt suspicious and quickly cupped her hands to Duobao Daoist before turning to leave Duobao Peak.

Strange, why is Teacher acting so listless? He seemed so uninterested when he was lecturing me earlier?

Huo Ling Shengmu was filled with doubt.

As she walked, Huo Ling Shengmu saw someone. The person had a pair of long, large ears. It was none other than Chang'er Dingguang Immortal.

Huo Ling Shengmu hurriedly cupped her hands to Chang'er Dingguang Immortal, saying, "Greetings, Uncle-Master Dingguang Immortal!"

Chang'er Dingguang Immortal nodded and lightly helped Huo Ling Shengmu up, asking, "Huo Ling, did you just come from Duobao Peak? Is First Senior Brother there?"

"He is here, but Teacher... Teacher isn't in a good state!"

Huo Ling Shengmu said suspiciously.

Chang'er Dingguang Immortal muttered, "First Senior Brother was struck by a blow..."

With that, Chang'er Dingguang Immortal walked past Huo Ling Shengmu and headed towards Duobao Peak.

"Huh? Teacher was struck by a blow?"

Huo Ling Shengmu was stunned. She flashed forward and blocked Chang'er Dingguang Immortal's path, asking, "Uncle-Master, what exactly happened? Who struck Teacher? I noticed Teacher's condition was off just now..."

Chang'er Dingguang Immortal hesitated for a moment before recounting what had happened earlier.

"Fifth Uncle-Master? That waste? This... how is that possible?"

Huo Ling Shengmu exclaimed.

"Alas, it's true!"

Chang'er Dingguang Immortal sighed and continued on his way to Duobao Peak.

Huo Ling Shengmu glanced at Fifth Peak, then turned and walked away.

After leaving Golden Ao Island, Huo Ling Shengmu intended to return to her own dojo when she suddenly saw someone flying through the clouds ahead. It was none other than Li Xiao.

As the saying goes, when enemies meet, their eyes burn with hatred!

Seeing Li Xiao, Huo Ling Shengmu's teeth itched with anger. After a moment's hesitation, she followed Li Xiao.

It turned out that Li Xiao had broken through to the Grand Unity Golden Immortal realm and went to ask Tongtian on Golden Ao Island. Tongtian, helpless, could only permit Li Xiao to establish another dojo outside Golden Ao Island.

Li Xiao flew through the clouds, yawning.

"Ding..."

"Host let out a comfortable yawn, rewarded with a Grand Unity Vermillion Fruit!"

Just then, the system's voice rang out.

Li Xiao was overjoyed. With a flip of his hand, a bright red fruit appeared in his palm. He exclaimed joyfully, "Grand Unity Vermillion Fruit! With this spiritual fruit, breaking through to Grand Unity Golden Immortal is just around the corner!"

At that moment, a streak of crimson light flew over and blocked Li Xiao's path.

The crimson light dissipated, revealing a beautiful figure. It was Huo Ling Shengmu, who had been following Li Xiao.

"Eh? Huo Ling? Why are you blocking this humble Taoist's path?"

Li Xiao asked.

Huo Ling Shengmu's gaze was fixed on the Grand Unity Vermillion Fruit in Li Xiao's hand. She cupped her hands to Li Xiao and said, "Fifth Uncle-Master, I have come for the Grand Unity Vermillion Fruit in your hand! I discovered this Grand Unity Vermillion Fruit a few days ago, but it wasn't ripe, so I didn't pick it. Today, when I went to get it, I found someone had already taken it. I didn't expect that person to be Fifth Uncle-Master! I request that Fifth Uncle-Master return the Grand Unity Vermillion Fruit to this disciple!"

What the heck!

If you're going to try and snatch something, can't you come up with a better excuse?

What do you mean you discovered the Grand Unity Vermillion Fruit? Damn it, this Grand Unity Vermillion Fruit was clearly a reward from the system!

This girl is deliberately looking for trouble!

Right, she's probably trying to get revenge for her teacher, Duobao Daoist!

Understanding the key point, Li Xiao's face broke into a smile. He directly put away the Grand Unity Vermillion Fruit and looked at Huo Ling Shengmu with a grin, chuckling, "Huo Ling, Huo Ling, you didn't learn much from your teacher, but you've certainly mastered hypocrisy and shamelessness!"

Upon hearing this, Huo Ling Shengmu's pretty face turned as cold as frost. She looked at Li Xiao coldly and said in a deep voice, "Hmph, why does Fifth Uncle-Master insult my master? Hand over the Grand Unity Vermillion Fruit quickly, or if word gets out that Fifth Uncle-Master robbed a junior, your reputation won't be good either!"

Li Xiao rolled his eyes repeatedly and pouted, "In this vast world, how can you twist right and wrong? You say this humble Taoist robbed you, and so he did? Do you think everyone else is blind and foolish?"

"Hmph, Fifth Uncle-Master, I'll ask you one more time. The Grand Unity Vermillion Fruit, will you give it or not?"

Huo Ling Shengmu's pretty face became extremely grim, and she said coldly.

"Giving it is possible, but it depends on whether you have the ability to take it!"

Li Xiao looked at Huo Ling Shengmu with disdain and said in a deep voice.

"Hmph, since Fifth Uncle-Master refuses a toast and insists on a penalty, then don't blame me for being impolite!"

Huo Ling Shengmu was already fuming, and seeing the Grand Unity Vermillion Fruit now ignited her greed. She immediately became enraged, let out a loud shout, and with a flip of her hand, a celestial sword appeared. She flicked her wrist and swung it towards Li Xiao.

The celestial sword transformed in mid-air, and in an instant, flames surged and roared, attacking Li Xiao.

Li Xiao grinned, flipped his hand, and produced a pale blue bead – the Heavy Water Bead.

"Go!"

Li Xiao gave a light shout and threw the bead.

With a loud "splash," the Heavy Water Bead suddenly transformed into a vast river in mid-air, like a giant dragon, roaring and surging towards Huo Ling Shengmu.

Where the great river passed, sword energy collapsed!

Huo Ling Shengmu was startled and quickly raised her sword to block.

"Boom..."

The next moment, Huo Ling Shengmu was swept away by the great river like a tossed stone, bouncing back and forth on the sea surface, falling who knew how many tens of thousands of miles.

After finally stabilizing herself, Huo Ling Shengmu looked up and glared at Li Xiao, gritting her teeth, "Fifth Uncle-Master, it seems you're not very capable. You're just bullying juniors by relying on your spiritual treasures!"

Li Xiao was taken aback, put away the Heavy Water Bead, and said with a smile, "Since that's the case, then this humble Taoist will play with you!"

"Good, Fifth Uncle-Master, be careful!"

Huo Ling Shengmu was furious. She threw the Fire Cloud Sword in her hand into the air, formed hand seals, and chanted.

Whoosh...

Suddenly, the Fire Cloud Sword shot out blazing flames. Within the flames, countless fire crows could be vaguely seen.

"Go..."

Huo Ling Shengmu gave a delicate shout and pointed at Li Xiao.

Countless fire crows roared, flapping their wings and crying out, surging towards Li Xiao like a tidal wave. Where they passed, the seawater boiled violently, and countless fish and shrimp were roasted alive, showing their power...

Chapter 43: Beating Huo Ling, Duobao Explodes

Seeing the three thousand fire crows charging, Li Xiao was unhurried. He suddenly let out a loud shout, runes flashed around his body, and he charged directly at the fire crows.

Huo Ling Shengmu was stunned, then her face was filled with mockery.

It turned out that Huo Ling Shengmu's fire crows were not ordinary fires, but true fires refined by collecting the power of the sun. Although not as ferocious as the Solar True Fire, they were still extremely potent.

Li Xiao was so arrogant that he intended to resist with his physical body. Wasn't this seeking death?

But what happened next made Huo Ling Shengmu somewhat dumbfounded.

Li Xiao's body was covered in flashing runes. His fire crows rushed onto Li Xiao, splashing circles of divine light ripples, but they couldn't harm Li Xiao in the slightest.

"This..."

Huo Ling Shengmu's beautiful eyes widened, almost unable to believe her own eyes.

Was this still human?

He could actually withstand his true fire with his physical body?

Under the heavens, perhaps only those reckless brats of the Wu clan could do this.

But Li Xiao, this waste, actually managed it. This was truly hard for her to believe.

While Huo Ling Shengmu was in a daze, Li Xiao's figure had already flashed to her front.

Huo Ling Shengmu was startled. She quickly patted her forehead, and the Golden Radiance Crown on her head erupted with thirty to forty feet of dazzling light, so bright that one couldn't open their eyes.

But at this moment, a faint purple light appeared in Li Xiao's eyes.

No matter how dazzling the radiant light was, it couldn't penetrate Li Xiao's Great Dao Divine Eyes.

The Great Dao Divine Eyes could see through all illusions, so the mere radiance of the Golden Radiance Crown was nothing.

The next moment, Huo Ling Shengmu was horrified to find that Li Xiao was charging directly at her.

"You, you, you..."

Huo Ling Shengmu was stunned, her tongue tied, unable to speak.

"What 'you'? You scoundrel, daring to challenge your superior, you deserve a beating!"

The purple light in Li Xiao's eyes flickered. He glared at Huo Ling Shengmu, let out an angry roar, and reached out his large hand, slapping her pretty face.

"Slap..."

The loud slap was crisp and clear. The pitiful Huo Ling Shengmu was directly slapped by Li Xiao, once again tumbling and rolling to the side, falling who knew how many tens of thousands of miles.

"You... you dare to hit me?"

Huo Ling Shengmu finally managed to stabilize herself, only to see her pretty face swollen like a pig's head, blood at the corner of her mouth, and her hair disheveled, a stark contrast to her previous holy appearance.

"Hmph, how could this humble Taoist not dare to hit you?"

Li Xiao walked on the waves with his hands behind his back. Although it seemed slow, his speed was actually extremely fast.

Huo Ling Shengmu was startled. She looked closely, and the next moment, Li Xiao had already appeared in front of Huo Ling Shengmu, almost touching her pretty face.

"Ah..."

Huo Ling Shengmu screamed.

"Slap..."
