Li Zi was still fully focused on his cultivation.

Hearing the system say that distracted me.

[Wow, torture Wen Yun mercilessly! Make him scream! The more he screams, the greater the chance of Senior Huo Fei waking up! Hehe, Wen Yun is so handsome, his screams will definitely be quite a sight.]

At this time.

The Flame Hall Disciple who were cultivating in the Gravity Body Tempering Pavilion, all of whom were at the Golden Core Stage or above, opened their eyes.

They rubbed their ears and looked around in confusion.

Strange, what was that sound I just heard?

Wen Yun?

Wasn't Wen Yun the Sect Master's dao companion? Why was he brought here and abused by the Sect?

I'm not sure, let me listen again.

The system is broadcasting live online: [Wow! They've tied Wen Yun up in the back mountain, near where Huo Fei is in seclusion. It's started! The Grand Elder is using the Twenty-Seven-Section Ink Bone Rod. With one strike, wow, Wen Yun screams so sweetly, it's still a breathy sound. Now Gong Lin has made his move. He's unleashing a set of sword techniques, the Dragon-Slaying Cry, flowing like water. Huh? Wen Yun has so many wounds on his body. He screamed! He screamed!]

On the Fourth Floor, two stone doors opposite each other opened at the same time.

The two disciples exchanged a glance and spoke in unison.

"You can hear me too?"

"You can hear me too?"

Several more stone doors opened.

They are all inner disciple or Direct Disciple the elders of the Flame Hall.

"Senior Brother Wei, did you all hear that sound?"

With a cold expression, Senior Brother Wei said indifferently, "I'll go check the back mountain."

"Let's go too."

"But, cultivation..."

"Cultivation can be done anytime, but scenes like this are rare. If we don't see it this time, we'll never have the chance again."

Today, the Outer Sect disciples of the Sect felt that the Gravity Body Tempering Pavilion was deserted, and even the Junior Master's Uncle guarding the gate were nowhere to be seen.

Several Foundation Establishment stage inner disciples discussed in bewilderment, "How strange! All the Golden Core stage senior brothers from the Gravity Body Refining Pavilion have disappeared today. Could it be that the sect is holding another meeting?"

"That shouldn't be the case. These senior brothers are usually cultivation fanatics. Even when they're in meetings, they never neglect their cultivation time. It's really strange today."

Wen Yun was tied to the stone wall and was being whipped in turn by several elders of the Flame Hall.

The disciples who rushed over were all shocked by this scene.

Wen Yun screamed in agony repeatedly, but that didn't stop him from cursing loudly.

"Flame Hall! If I manage to escape your clutches, I will surely lead my men to raze your Flame Hall to the ground one day!"

The Grand Elder sneered, "Wen Yun, you colluded with the Devil Race, knowing full well that the Barrier was weakening, yet you concealed it—your crimes are heinous! Didn't you leak that Formation back then? Don't think we don't know; you have a harem of hundreds, and among your women is a Demoness."

Wen Yun suddenly glared angrily.

"How is that possible!"

How could that be!

How could these people know about this?

The Second Elder raised his hand and gently slapped Wen Yun across the air. With a crisp sound, a clear handprint appeared on Wen Yun's face.

"You know this, no need to pretend."

Wen Yun panicked completely and hurriedly denied it in terror.

"I don't know, I really don't know, that woman lied to me!"

The disciples who had secretly slipped in from all around watched this scene in astonishment.

That man who died young from his infatuation with the Sect Master actually had a harem?

He also had an affair with Devil Cultivator?

This is so exciting!

The First Elder snorted coldly, "What are you all looking at? Get back to your cultivation!"

The disciples scattered like birds and beasts, quickly returning to the Gravity Body Tempering Pavilion to continue their meditation.

Fortunately, they didn't hear that sound this time, so they could focus on their cultivation.

It was because Li Zi was asleep.

Cultivating in the Gravity Body Tempering Pavilion was extremely slow. Li Zi internally observed the Spiritual Power within his body slowly climbing, and accidentally became sleepy while doing so. He simply made a makeshift bed on the floor inside and went to sleep.

When she woke up, it was already the second day. As she stepped out of the stone house, she felt the Spiritual Power surrounding her flooding into her body.

She vaguely felt that she had touched the barrier of the sixth level of Qi Refining Stage.

Li Zi scratched his face, thinking, "Last night's suffering was definitely worth it."

Sleeping in this room feels like being paralyzed by a ghost for an extended period of time.

But since she was already there, she figured staying a little longer would be a bonus, so she decided to put up with it, and it actually worked really well.

As soon as she entered the hall, she saw Huo Rui waiting at the door.

Huo Rui came over and casually stuffed a Spirit Fruit into her hand.

"This is something my eldest uncle specifically instructed me to give you."

Li Zi felt that the Spirit Fruit was smooth and glossy to the touch, accompanied by a faint fragrance. The flesh was plump and full of spiritual Spiritual Qi.

She thanked him, then took a bite with relish; it was crisp, sweet, and juicy—delicious.

"Thank you, Sister Rui."

As the two walked out, some passing disciples rubbed their eyes, staring incredulously at the Spirit Fruit that Li Zi was using as a snack.

"I'm not seeing things, am I? This Snow Goose Fruit is the First Elder's treasure. It only bears fruit once every thousand years. I heard that the Second Elder was greedy and stole a bite, and the First Elder chased after him and beat him up."

"Wow, who is this woman? The Grand Elder is actually willing to give her his treats. That's amazing."

Li Zi followed Huo Rui for a stroll outside.

During this time, she received small gifts such as Spirit Fruit, Medicinal Pill, Candied Fruit from the other five elders of the Flame Hall, and Gong Lin also gave her a sword.

Li Zi accepted the gift with a bewildered expression, then returned to the Stone Chamber of the Gravity Body Tempering Pavilion.

She didn't know how many days she could stay in the Flame Hall, so she had to seize every opportunity to cultivate there.
