Gu Clan Great Hall.
"What's going on?"
"There must be a fight going on there?"
"Who exactly is this person?"
"Elders, come with me to see."
Meanwhile, on the battlefield not far from the main hall.
Huo Xuan stood with his hands behind his back. The explosion had kicked up a lot of dust. Despite the terrifying explosion, Huo Xuan was completely unharmed!
When the Buddha's Angry Fire Lotus collided with the Emperor Seal just now, the Buddha's Angry Fire Lotus easily destroyed the Emperor Seal Technique. Indeed, the power of Strange Fire in this world should not be underestimated!
The dust quickly settled, and when it cleared, Gu Xun'er, covered in blood, gradually came into Huo Xuan's view.
When the Buddha's Angry Fire Lotus exploded, Huo Xuan used his Dou Qi to defend himself in time. The aftershocks caused by the explosion of the Fire Lotus did not cause him any harm at all. However, Gu Xun'er, who had eaten the entire Buddha's Angry Fire Lotus, was a different case.
Gu Xun'er lay on the ground, barely breathing. She looked as if she had been pulled from a pool of blood, able to breathe, but her breaths were very short and weak.
Huo Xuan took a few steps and slowly walked towards Gu Xun'er, finally stopping in front of her.
Looking down at the dying Gu Xun'er on the ground, Huo Xuan squatted down, reached out and grabbed Gu Xun'er's hair, gently lifting the unconscious woman.
"Smack!"
Looking at the unconscious Gu Xun'er, Huo Xuan slapped her across the face and said, "You treated Zhi'er the same way today. Unfortunately, I don't have a different kind of Strange Fire as powerful as the Golden Emperor Sky Burning Flame, so I can only offer you Fused Heavenly Flame!"
"Xiao Yan is dead. I'm really looking forward to the Gu Yan War you mentioned..." Huo Xuan's tone changed abruptly, "Your Gu Clan will definitely regret this in the future!"
"Smack!"
Huo Xuan slapped Gu Xun'er again, then released his grip on her hair, stood up, and said, "Your Gu Clan elders should be arriving soon. Today is just the beginning. I will grant your wish and make the entire Gu Clan pay for Xiao Yan's death in the future!"
Just as Huo Xuan was about to leave, Gu Xun'er, who was lying on the ground, barely alive and unconscious, twitched her fingers slightly...
"You want to kill me? If I were you, I definitely wouldn't do it openly; I would definitely resort to a sneak attack from behind."
Huo Xuan seemed to be talking to himself, or perhaps to Gu Xun'er. After saying this, he flashed and quickly disappeared from the spot.
"That person lying down... it looks like... Miss Xun Er!"
At this moment, the Gu Clan Elder who rushed over noticed that the seriously injured person seemed to be Gu Xun'er. Their hearts tightened, and they quickly stepped forward to check on her.
This really is Miss Xun Er!
"This really is a young lady!"
"Miss!"
"Miss Xun Er!"
"Miss Xun Er!"
The elders were shocked to see this. Miss Xun Er possessed the God Grade Bloodline of the Gu Clan, and it was the only one of its God Grade Bloodline. If something happened to Miss Xun Er, the Gu Clan would lose a Nine Star Dou Sheng in the future.
Seeing this, they hurriedly took out healing and life-saving pills from their Storage Ring, pried open Gu Xun'er's unconscious mouth, and put the pills into her mouth.
After feeding her healing and life-saving pills, and sensing that Gu Xun'er's breathing was gradually stabilizing, all the elders breathed a sigh of relief. Immediately, they disregarded everything else, jumped up, and took Gu Xun'er to heal her injuries.
The Flame Clan's temporary residence.
"Elder Yan Feng, has that girl's condition improved?"
"Although Huo Zhi was injured by the Golden Emperor Sky Burning Flame, she was fortunate to receive timely treatment and is much better now. She will be able to wake up in a while."
"That's good..."
"Huo Zhi is alright now, but you'll probably be in trouble soon..." Yan Feng suddenly adopted a very serious expression and said, "Huo Xuan, where did you go just now? Were you going to avenge Huo Zhi?"
"That's right!"
Huo Xuan admitted it without hesitation, and even stated it with great confidence. "I went to take revenge on Gu Xun'er, and I was very successful!"
"Huo Xuan, this is the Gu Clan! How could you act so impulsively! Didn't the clan leader warn you to avoid causing trouble? You injured Gu Xun'er; do you think the Gu Clan will let this go?"
"Patience may not bring peace, and retreat may not lead to a brighter future." Facing Yan Feng's rebuke, Huo Xuan calmly said, "The Gu Clan is far too arrogant. I am not just acting on impulse, but also giving the Gu Clan a warning."
"Like the Medicine Clan, we have been provoked by the Gu Clan these past few days, but this morning, after the Medicine Clan killed that person and gave that warning, most of the Gu Clan members no longer dare to cause them trouble."
"But what about our Flame Clan? Gu Xun'er stole the show at the Coming of Age Ritual, which fueled the sense of superiority among the Gu Clan members. Now they look down on our Flame Clan even more!"
This isn't something Huo Xuan made up; it's based on his own experience. Because of his formidable strength, no one bothered him, but it was different for Huo Yun and the other two...
Because they were not strong enough, many Gu Clan came to provoke them and challenge them to matches that day. Moreover, the Gu Clan used a series of matches. If Gu Clan won, he would be mocked and ridiculed. If he lost, he would call on a stronger person to challenge him.
Refusing to fight would be cowardly, and after a day of combat, all three of them are now covered in wounds...
"I know Gu Xun'er is no nobody. Although she is the eldest daughter of the Gu Clan, I didn't really kill her; she was just seriously injured..."
"Who says Gu Clan are allowed to bully others, and we shouldn't fight back? Besides, those Gu Clan are no longer the same as they used to be..."
The next day.
"Huo Xuan! What a mess you've made!"
Early in the morning, just as dawn was breaking, Huo Xuan was greeted by an "uninvited guest".
"Lei Dong, what are you shouting about so early in the morning!"
"What happened last night! Why was Xun'er so badly injured? Why did she almost lose her life?!"
"Did she almost lose half her life?"
"Don't change the subject! Tell me!"
Upon hearing this, Huo Xuan said calmly, "It's nothing, just a competition with Gu Xun'er to see who has a stronger Strange Fire."
"Let's have a contest of Strange Fire!"
"Then why is she so badly injured now! She's almost half dead!"
Lei Dong roared at Huo Xuan.
"If it weren't for the sake of the Gu Clan, she would have lost more than just half her life! If it weren't for the Gu Clan, I would have sent her to the Western Paradise long ago!"
"Lei Dong, use your brain! Gu Xun'er only likes Xiao Yan. No matter how good you are to her, she'll never be interested in you!"
Faced with Lei Dong's roar, Huo Xuan was not to be outdone. His words, "Gu Xun'er only likes Xiao Yan. No matter how good you are to her, she will never be interested in you," struck Lei Dong's heart.
"Back then, I tricked you into proposing marriage because of my resentment towards Gu Xun'er. That was wrong of me. Now I'm telling you clearly, Gu Xun'er was just using you, using the Lei Clan..."
"You'd better wake up soon!"
