Taking Down Huo Wu and the Other Members of Blazing Fire Academy

The Land of Extreme Flame.

The Flame Phoenix Forest!

Seeing this, Yan Buhui came charging toward the Blazing Fire Academy group where Huo Wu was.

"A Soul Douluo."

"A squad made up of several Soul Ancestors and Soul Elders."

"They don't know their own limits, yet they still dare to remain in the Flame Phoenix Forest on the outskirts."

Seeing this, Yan Buhui couldn't help but mutter his complaints.

The stupidity of Blazing Fire Academy was truly lamentable.

Meanwhile, over in the Flame Phoenix Forest,

Huo Tian'en could feel a fierce wave of heat sweeping toward him.

Seeing the dean hesitate, Huo Wu asked, "What is it, Father?"

"Huo Wu, Huo Wushuang, hurry and lead the team out of here."

Huo Tian'en immediately reacted and said to the two of them, "A powerful Soul Beast's presence is heading straight for us. Judging by its presence, the Soul Beast is at least tens of thousands of years old!"

"A Soul Beast tens of thousands of years old?"

Huo Wu was puzzled. "How could he possibly appear on the outskirts of the Land of Extreme Flame?"

"It might even be a Hundred-Thousand-Year Soul Beast!"

"Do you remember that phoenix cry?"

"That should have been it," Huo Tian'en explained.

"I once heard an ancient legend that in the Land of Extreme Flame, there is a kind of phoenix called the Evil Fire Phoenix. What's even more outrageous is that this Evil Fire Phoenix has already reached a hundred thousand years of cultivation and is the emperor among Evil Fire Phoenixes. Compared with the Titan Snow Demon King, Ice Jade Emperor Scorpion, and Heavenly Snow Woman of the Far North, its combat power is even greater!"

"Because! In the entire Land of Extreme Flame, he is the only Soul Beast overlord. I thought it was a legend, but I never expected it to be true..."

"An Evil Fire Phoenix?"

Huo Wushuang couldn't help exclaiming, "That's a top-tier fire-attribute Soul Beast! A supreme-grade phoenix!"

"Yes, there's no time to lose..." Drawing on his many years of combat experience, Huo Tian'en reckoned there was an eighty or ninety percent chance it was the Evil Fire Phoenix from the heart of the Land of Extreme Flame.

Only he possessed this scorching wave of heat.

Just as Blazing Fire Academy was about to leave,

Yan Buhui arrived and coldly snorted at them, shouting:

"Leave?"

"You want to leave? Where do you think you're going?"

"You killed my subjects, and you still want to leave?!"

"You don't take me seriously at all. If you can walk out of this Flame Phoenix Forest, I, Yan Buhui, will write my name backward."

Huo Wu looked up.

The speaker was actually a young man, with an air of nobility and flames swirling around his body for protection. Him? That's the Evil Fire Phoenix? Has he taken human form?

Puzzled, Huo Wu asked:

"Are you the legendary Evil Fire Phoenix?"

Yan Buhui drew a sharp breath, looked at the Blazing Fire Academy group, and shouted, "That's right! I am the overlord of the Land of Extreme Flame-the Flame Emperor!"

Yan Buhui rolled his neck, then looked at Huo Wu.

Huo Wu was a woman who, just like her name, gave off a fiery red glow. She had dark red hair, an exquisitely beautiful face, well-defined features, and a pair of large eyes that shimmered with a clear red light.

Her gold-and-red battle outfit looked like flames on her, making her the center of attention in the crowd.

A faint trace of sorrow always lingered on her face, yet it also stirred affection in others. A faint red light seemed to radiate around her body, drawing your gaze to her without you even realizing it.

Huo Wu felt her body jolt!

The pressure from this power was no weaker than that of a level-95 Super Douluo.

"Huo Wu, Wushuang! Hurry and lead them away! Leave this to me!!!"

Huo Tian'en of Blazing Fire Academy understood just how unfathomable the young man before him was, and how extraordinary his combat ability was.

If he truly was a Hundred-Thousand-Year Soul Beast, an Evil Fire Phoenix that had taken human form, then he presumably still possessed the combat ability of the Evil Fire Phoenix's true body.

"Tsk, tsk, tsk..."

Yan Buhui merely raised a hand, and flames rose around the Flame Phoenix Forest.

Even fire-attribute Soul Masters could neither counteract nor destroy and extinguish these flames.

"Ultimate Fire?"

Huo Wu had just been about to lead everyone to safety when she discovered that the ring of fire was blocking her path.

"How can this person possess such formidable power?!"

Huo Tian'en shouted, "Seventh Soul Skill: Martial Soul Avatar!"

With that,

A Unicorn Fire Tyrannosaurus appeared behind Huo Tian'en and attached itself to his body as flaming Martial Soul Avatar armor. He prepared to help Huo Wu and the others break out!

"I'll help you, Father!"

Seeing this, Huo Wushuang, the captain of Blazing Fire Academy, immediately charged out, ready to unleash his strongest attack. However, he was currently no more than a minor Soul Ancestor.

"Fourth Soul Skill: Blazing Fire Breaks the Enemy!"

Huo Wushuang conjured a pair of wings, instantly boosting the power of his Unicorn Fire Tyrannosaurus and increasing his own attack power by thirty percent. Flames five meters high rose and soared around his Unicorn Fire Tyrannosaurus, combining offense and defense. It could hardly be called anything but powerful!

Huo Tian'en and Huo Wushuang were, respectively, essentially the strongest and the most talented people in Blazing Fire Academy.

But,

After their attacks,

Yan Buhui's ring of fire remained completely unscathed.

"What?!"

"How is that possible?!"

Huo Tian'en stared with his mouth agape, not daring to speak.

Huo Wushuang was even more frightened. That had been his strongest attack, so how was it like striking cotton? Moreover, Huo Wushuang could clearly feel that the Soul Power of his flame attack had been absorbed by Yan Buhui's ring of fire.

Huo Yun, Huo Yu, Huo Lie, Huo Jun, Huo Chui, and the others likewise refused to sit and wait for death. They all attacked the ring, but their efforts were in vain, and they gained nothing.

"Are you done attacking?"

"Did you enjoy yourselves?"

"You actually dared to play with fire before the Flame Emperor. That's like playing with fire at the Flame Emperor's gate."

Yan Buhui couldn't help mocking them, sneering at their stupidity.

They knew perfectly well it was pointless, yet they still had to struggle.

This was the final wail of the weak.

Huo Wu calmed down and observed the ring for a while, then noticed something about it. She knew that its strangeness came from Yan Buhui himself.

But with her own Fire Shadow Martial Soul, it was even more impossible to break through flames like these.

"You've had your fun attacking. Now it's my turn."

"Phoenix Heart-Devouring Chain!"

This was Yan Buhui's group control skill. It could restrain Soul Masters below the rank of Titled Douluo and Soul Beasts younger than a hundred thousand years. Its control was extremely powerful and overbearing, leaving opponents unable to move. It also applied the Evil Fire Phoenix's flames, stacking burn marks on them, and could increase his attack power and explosive power on his next attack.

In an instant, Huo Wu, Huo Wushuang, Huo Tian'en, and the others were not only surrounded by the ring of fire but also restrained by Yan Buhui's Phoenix Heart-Devouring Chain.

"Damn it! These fire chains have trapped me." The dean of Blazing Fire Academy had never expected that he, a mighty Soul Douluo, would be utterly powerless to resist this young man.

"Father! Little Sister, are you all right?"

Although Huo Wushuang could barely protect himself, he was still concerned for the safety of his father, Huo Tian'en, and his younger sister, Huo Wu.

"Wushuang! I'm fine," Huo Tian'en said.

"Brother, don't worry about me. Are you all right?" Huo Wu said.

Yan Buhui slowly walked over and said with a soft chuckle, "I didn't want to hurt you, but you just had to provoke me, so you'll have to suffer a little pain."

"Let us go!!" Huo Wu struggled and shouted, "What exactly are you planning to do to our Blazing Fire Academy?!"

"Don't misunderstand, Miss Huo Wu. I haven't done anything at all."

"We should be reasonable!"

Yan Buhui spread his hands politely and reasoned, "Look, you came to my territory and hunted my subjects, yet I didn't hold you accountable. That's the first point."

"Second, you attacked me, and I merely struck back in response. That was self-defense."

"Third, I clearly could have killed all of you, but I showed restraint. I didn't go on a killing spree or slaughter and torture you. That was benevolence and morality."

"So, Miss Huo Wu, you really have wronged me."

"..." Huo Wu had never expected that the young man before her, an Evil Fire Phoenix in human form, would be so eloquent and even make a fair bit of sense. She could neither beat him in a fight nor outargue him.

"Then what! Do you want to do?!"

Huo Wu couldn't understand. What exactly did he intend by trapping her and the people from Blazing Fire Academy?

"Me?"

"What do I want to do?"

"I want to become your husband. Does that count as a condition?"

Yan Buhui made no attempt to hide it. Now that he had the Many Children, Many Blessings Bestowal System in hand, he had to be direct and a little domineering.

"What? You lecher! You actually want to take my sister for yourself!"

Huo Wushuang shouted furiously.

Hearing this, Yan Buhui promptly gave Huo Wushuang a slap and smiled politely and gently.

"Brother-in-law, please, keep it down. I don't like being interrupted when I'm talking. Please show me some respect, Brother-in-law. Thank you for your cooperation."

"..." The sudden slap left Huo Wushuang completely dumbfounded. Damn? What's going on?! Are emperors of the Evil Fire Phoenixes all this fierce?
