Monster Beast Mountain Range.

On the edge of a cliff deep within the mountains lives a powerful magical beast, a fifth-tier Abyssal Fire Magic Eagle, which is absolutely the strongest within a hundred miles.

Even among fifth-tier magical beasts, it is an incredibly powerful existence. Apart from the overlord-level magical beast kings, it is the strongest magical beast.

But today, it has been targeted!

Moreover, it's a fight to the death.

It was all because when it was hunting another bird-like magical beast, the flames it spat out in the air accidentally destroyed Yun Li's Candied Hawthorn Skewers...

"My Candied Hawthorn Skewers! Aaaaaah! I'm going to pay with my life for this Candied Hawthorn Skewers!!!"

Seeing that the last string of Candied Hawthorn Skewers on her body had been melted by the flames in the sky before she could even taste it, Yun Li was furious.

It has already made its way to its doom!

Without the slightest hesitation, Yun Li chased after the Abyssal Fire Magic Eagle, directly to its lair on the cliff.

"It's just a string of Candied Hawthorn Skewers, isn't that a bit unnecessary..."

Xiao Huohuo looked at Yun Li's reaction, completely puzzled.

How much does a string of Candied Hawthorn Skewers cost? Yun Li was so angry that she chased after him.

This Abyssal Fire Magic Eagle is a fifth-tier magical beast, and one of its peak combat power, with strength comparable to Nine-star Dou King.

This little girl is so reckless!

(Little guy, chase after him... perhaps the upcoming battle will be beneficial for you.)

The Old Medicine's voice rang in Xiao Huohuo's ears: that magical beast was definitely no match for Yun Li, so there was no need to worry. On the contrary, Yun Li's battle might be useful to Xiao Huohuo.

He had noticed before that this little girl's fighting style was very similar to his apprentice's in many ways, except that she was stronger.

(Good.)

Xiao Huohuo agreed in his heart, and then turned to look at the Little Fairy Doctor beside him.

"Little Fairy Doctor, let's go over there too."

Two days had passed since he first met Yun Li. In these two days, he found that Yun Li's personality was not so bad; on the contrary, she was very easy to get along with.

Especially in some tactical aspects, he and Yun Li actually shared the same ideas and habits.

This allowed Xiao Huohuo to quickly develop a closer relationship with her, feeling as if she were his own younger sister. He was even closer to her than to his other cousins...

And the heavy ruler he was wearing.

Yun Li had previously said that she would only return the Xiao Huohuo if he defeated her here, but yesterday, when he was in danger while facing a third-tier magical beast alone, Yun Li simply returned the heavy ruler to him.

And afterwards, she never asked for it back.

He was simply told to treat his weapon well, because weapons can also have their own thoughts and feelings.

"Um."

Little Fairy Doctor nodded and chased after them with Xiao Huohuo.

However, they didn't dare get too close. Yun Li's strength was terrifying, and if they weren't far enough away, they could easily be hit by the aftershocks.

Even the aftershocks are enough to kill someone!

So when they could see Yun Li and the Abyssal Fire Magic Eagle, they stopped approaching and watched what was happening ahead from a distance.

The Abyssal Fire Magic Eagle was furious to see that this human girl had actually followed him to his home.

Its body burst into flames, and one of its wings transformed into two tornadoes that swept towards Yun Li.

This human is too arrogant.

"Damn it... you owe me your life for those skewers!"

Faced with the attack from the monster in front of her, Yun Li didn't bother to defend herself; she simply raised her weapon.

Then...

"Break—rock—break!"

The terrifying super sword energy slashed towards the magical beast. This fifth-tier peak Abyssal Fire Magic Eagle only had time to let out a scream before its body was completely torn apart.

He's dead beyond words...

Moreover, even the nearby mountains were completely cleaved in two wherever the sword energy passed.

Faced with absolute rage, Yun Li no longer cared about Monster Core.

"Hiss!"

This violent scene made Xiao Huohuo and Old Medicine gasp in shock, even though they had already witnessed her violence before.

But seeing it again now still feels incredibly awe-inspiring.

"Teacher, isn't Yun Li's strength a bit too great?"

After an unknown amount of time, Xiao Huohuo finally came to her senses and subconsciously said, "Such destructive power... even a Dou Huang, no, a Dou Zong expert, wouldn't possess it."

No wonder even the teacher can't see through him.

"Her strength is indeed unprecedented. If I'm not mistaken, even just now she was still restraining herself and did not unleash her true power."

"Her true power is definitely far more than that."

Fortunately, they didn't use their full strength, otherwise it would have affected them here as well, and caused serious problems.

The Old Medicine appeared beside Xiao Huohuo, looking ahead with concern. If this were in the Central Continent, she would be an extremely dazzling presence.

I don't know why I'm here...

What puzzled him even more was that the girl's fighting style was far too similar to that of his disciple.

Although Xiao Huohuo's strength was on a completely different level from hers, many of their moves were extremely similar.

Even the Old Medicine thought about the fluctuations he sensed on Yun Li last night, and realized that there were just too many coincidences.

That's really strange...

"If even this isn't the real power, then wouldn't the real power be enough to destroy the entire Monster Beast Mountain Range?"

Upon learning that this was not even Yun Li's full strength, Xiao Huohuo was even more shocked.

"Perhaps!"

The Old Medicine stroked his beard and then recounted his discovery.

"However, compared to that, little one, have you noticed that her fighting style is roughly the same as yours, only some techniques and details are different..."

"It seems that's really the case. Could it be that she also has a similar fighting technique?"

Perhaps... no, sooner or later, he can be that powerful too?!

Xiao Huohuo watched enviously as Yun Li caused destruction; they used the same weapons, and even their fighting techniques were so similar.

This is both fate and a reflection of his future self, even if that future goal is a little girl.

"Not only that, this girl named Yun Li and you are so similar in some ways that I've started to wonder if there's another person like her in this world."

"Even though there's a huge gap in strength between her and you..."

The Old Medicine shook his head. The moves and weapons were just coincidences, but the rest was strange.

"What's the meaning?"

Hearing his teacher's words, Xiao Huohuo was a little confused.

"Before, she was around, so it wasn't convenient for me to tell you... It seems that there is something similar to me in that girl."

After thinking it over, the Old Medicine decided to tell Xiao Huohuo about his discovery. Last night, he had noticed Yun Li talking to something on her body.

Then he sensed the presence of something like a spirit, and even something like a strange fire.

"What?"

The Old Medicine's words shocked Xiao Huohuo; he couldn't believe such a thing existed.

Besides weapon skills, Yun Li also has a "personal teacher" just like him?

It's even highly likely that this personal teacher also possesses a different kind of flame?

This is just too much of a coincidence!

Considering that Yun Li has come to the Monster Beast Mountain Range to find Beast Fire, she may also be a Yaoshi. Could her personal teacher also be a top-notch Yaoshi?

Otherwise, how could there be a strange fire...?

Only Yaoshi would desperately need a different kind of fire.

Combining all this, Xiao Huohuo looked at the girl in front of him with a serious expression again. Why did he suddenly have the feeling of seeing the future, no, it should be the girl herself?

This little girl, Yun Li, whose strength astonished him, was actually a loli version of himself?!

Ah, this... Xiao Huohuo couldn't calm down.

Even after defeating the monster that had destroyed her skewers, Yun Li was still unhappy.

Although she avenged her skewers, they could never come back.

Hateful!

However, Yun Li, who was in a bad mood, could only carry Old Iron to the vicinity of Xiao Huohuo and Xiao Yixian. She glanced at Xiao Huohuo's storage ring, that Yao Cheng, she had already noticed that he and Xiao Huohuo were communicating, but she did not care.

Although it's a powerful cheat code for Xiao Huohuo, she doesn't need it.

He also has no intention of becoming Yaoshi.

Being your own Sword Hunter and Sword Forger is pretty good.

But at this moment, Xiao Huohuo's gaze towards her seemed different from before, which was a bit strange.

What are you looking at?

Yun Li was not used to Xiao Huohuo's gaze, so she put her hands on her hips and questioned him without any politeness.

"Nothing..."

Xiao Huohuo quickly looked away; he didn't want to get beaten up by Yun Li, as the consequences would be dire.

Suddenly, he remembered something and quickly took out a different kind of Candied Hawthorn Skewers and handed it to the girl in front of him.

"Yun Li, I have this here, do you want it?"

Seeing how much Yun Li liked Candied Hawthorn Skewers, he had some ideas, but they couldn't be bought in the Monster Beast Mountain Range.

He had previously collected some spiritual fruits, which tasted similar to hawthorn, or even better.

Then, using his Yaoshi skills, he concocted some syrup, skewered it with wooden sticks, and it became Candied Hawthorn Skewers.

As long as it can gain the favor of this little girl in front of it, it will definitely be worth it.

"Skewers?!"

These skewers smell so good...

Yun Li smelled the aroma of the skewers and instantly became adorable, just like a cute cat smelling the aroma of fish.

Her movements were incredibly fast; she struck in an instant.

Before Xiao Huohuo could react, the skewers in his hand had already been handed to Yun Li.

"Well?"

Xiao Huohuo's hands were empty; he hadn't seen Yun Li make a move at all. But seeing Yun Li's expression, it was clear that children really loved sweets.

Thinking back to her previous thoughts, Xiao Huohuo shook her head.

The idea of another version of himself is just wishful thinking. Even if it were a female version of him, he wouldn't be the same as Yun Li in front of him.

However, their templates were indeed very similar. Compared to his other self, he felt more like the girl in front of him was his daughter...

Although he does not have a daughter yet.

"I wonder why you're looking for Beast Fire, Yun Li? Are you also a Yaoshi?"

Seeing that Yun Li was in a good mood, Xiao Huohuo couldn't help but ask her about something that concerned her.
