• Hun Cang dismissed that suggestion and planned to obtain the Purifying Demonic Lotus Flame so he could challenge Hun Tiandi’s power.

After exhausting himself with his Secret Technique, Hun Cang followed Hun Yu to a Yan Clan pavilion, where the Yan Clan’s young clan leader ambushed him. The attacker believed Hun Cang was dead, but Hun Cang’s fate remained unknown.
