"Go!"
Xiao Yan looked at Protector Wu nearby, a teasing smile flashing in his eyes. Then, under Protector Wu's astonished gaze, he hurled the dazzling Fire Lotus in his hand toward the black curtain overhead.
Whoosh!
Under everyone's gaze, the cyan-blue Fire Lotus flew swiftly toward the edge of the black-curtain cage that blotted out the sky, looking like an exquisite piece of porcelain.

Whoosh!
The instant the black-curtain cage shattered, wind lightning power surged beneath Xiao Yan's feet. He shot straight out and came to a stop opposite Protector Wu.
"Damn brat!"
Protector Wu stared venomously at Xiao Yan in midair and thrust his hand forward in a grasping motion. Several chains shot from the pitch-black mist behind him, attacking Xiao Yan
