Looking at the Heavenly Mystic Fire arguing with his wife, Liu Mufeng smiled. He directly took the Heavenly Mystic Fire back into his sea of consciousness.
Seeing the flames being taken away by Liu Mufeng, Jiang Xu snorted coldly and immediately took out the external wound medicine to treat Liu Mufeng’s injuries. “Mufeng, does it hurt?”
“Everything is okay. I’ll be fine in a few days.” Liu Mufeng felt a little distressed as he looked at his lover’s red eyes.
“En.” Jiang Xu nodded dullly, and the movements of his hands were very gentle, for fear of hurting his partner.
“When my injury is healed, we will leave here. We will send Uncle Bai to the Space Zone first, and then we will go to Qianjin Mountain. The distance between Qianjin Mountain and the Space Zone is not too far, we can pick up Uncle Bai when we leave the mountain.” Liu Mufeng revealed his plan.
“En, it’s all up to you. Let’s go wherever you say.” Nodding, Jiang Xu agreed.
“Don’t be like this, I’m really fine.” Raising his hand, Liu Mufeng gently touched his lover’s hair.
“Of course, you’ll be fine. I know.” Nodding, Jiang Xu said he knew.
“There are Gold Stones, Golden Fruits and Golden Beasts over there in Qianjin Mountain. These three things are very beneficial to you. When you get there, I will take everyone to help you collect these things and help you successfully advance to the Spiritual Venerable Realm, okay?” Liu Mufeng said as he looked at his wife.
“Why is Qianjin Mountain called a dangerous place? Is there anything dangerous there?” Jiang Xu asked.
“There are poisonous thorns on the surface of the Gold Stones in Qianjin Mountain. Many Gold Clan cultivators who come into contact with the stone will be poisoned and die if they touch it accidently. However, this is not a big problem for me. I can make gloves to isolate the poisonous thorns. I can also refine antidotes for everyone. In addition to the Gold Stones, the Golden Beasts are also difficult to deal with. The golden armor of the Golden Beast is as hard as a turtle shell, which is not easy to deal with. And they like to eat Golden Fruits. All of them are living in the Golden Fruit Forest. But there are also many of us, and my Mystic Fire can also be of great use, so dealing with Golden Beasts is not a big problem.” Liu Mufeng said patiently, facing his lover.
“Oh, so that’s how it is.” Nodding, Jiang Xu expressed understanding.

“No way? He actually advanced to the Spiritual Venerable Realm?” Thinking of this matter, Xue Jiao was also very depressed.
“In the past fifty years, the Flame Desert has experienced a total of five Lightning Tribulations, two at the Spiritual Venerable Realm and three at the Spiritual Ancestor Realm. If the people who have overcome the tribulations are Liu Mufeng and his group, then their strength must be much more tyrannical than before. I think we should send a message to Father and ask him to send two Elders over, right?” Xue Mei said as she looked at her Mother.
“Okay, I will send a message to your Father soon and ask him to send someone over.” Nodding, the Queen agreed.
“I hope that bastard Liu Mufeng will be killed by lightning when he is advancing, so that we can successfully get back the Celestial Snow Lotus.” Thinking of this, Xue Jiao raised her lips proudly.
Looking at her silly sister, Xue Mei smiled bitterly. “They may not be electrocuted to death. I heard that 10% of the people who advance to the Spiritual Ancestor Realm are killed by the lightning, 30% of the people who advance to the Spiritual Venerable Realm would not pass, and 70% of the people who advance to the Spiritual Sacred Realm are killed by lightning. Seven out of ten people who advance will be killed undergoing the tribulations.”
“Are there so few people who have advanced to the Spiritual Venerable Realm and been killed?” Hearing this, Xue Jiao was very disappointed.
“Liu Mufeng is an alchemist. If he faced the tribulations, he is more likely to be choked to death. However, I am worried that Jiang Xu will be the one who is advancing. Jiang Xu is not a simple person. He is a sword cultivator and the disciple of the Sect Master of Lingwu Sect. Once he successfully advances to the Spiritual Venerable Realm, he will definitely be a very difficult opponent.” Speaking of this, the Queen frowned.
“Whether Jiang Xu is promoted or Liu Mufeng is promoted, I think that the Celestial Snow Lotus may not be retrievable. If the other party can advance to the Spiritual Venerable Realm so quickly, the Celestial Snow Lotus should have been consumed” Speaking of this, Xue said Mei’s face looked very ugly.
“Consumed? How dare they?” Upon hearing this, Xue Jiao’s face twisted.
The Queen nodded. “En, I don’t think I can get it back. If they hadn’t taken precious medicine like Celestial Snow Lotus, they wouldn’t have been able to advance so quickly.” Xue Mei didn’t need to say this, the Queen already knew it.
“Mother, if we can’t get the Snow Lotus back, then do we still have to wait here? There are two cultivators in the Spiritual Venerable Realm among Liu Mufeng’s group. We are not their opponents. If we encounter them, we can only suffer the loss.” Xue Mei frowned. The obvious meaning was to leave.
“If we leave now, your Uncle will die. I will send a message to your Father immediately and ask him to send two Elders to help us capture Liu Mufeng.” The Queen said as she looked at her Daughter.
Hearing this, Xue Mei nodded. Nothing more was said. She knew that the journey from the Snow Clan to the Flame Desert was very long. Even if the Father is willing to send Elders to help, the Elders will not be able to arrive in less than three months. However, Liu Mufeng’s injury will probably heal in a month. If Liu Mufeng and his group came out at that time, they would not be able to stop them just by relying on themselves.
Her Mother could risk her own safety for her Uncle, but she wouldn’t. Besides, the Father’s intention is also very clear. What Father wanted was the Snow Lotus, not Liu Mufeng. Liu Mufeng and Jiang Xu both had status and status in the Human Race, and Jiang Xu’s Master was the head of the same sect, so her Father was actually a little afraid of these two people. However, the Queen Mother seemed to think of this matter too simply. She thought that just catching Liu Mufeng as the scapegoat would be enough, and she never thought of anything else. It seems that she needs to plan more for herself.

One month later…
Liu Mufeng’s injury improved and he led everyone to leave the Flame Desert.
After staying here for one hundred and twenty years, Liu Mufeng’s strength had advanced to two stars in the Spiritual Venerable Realm, Xiaoxiao’s strength was one star in the Spiritual Venerable Realm, and the strength of the three Fire Spirit Insect Kings has been upgraded to six stars in the Spiritual Ancestor Realm. Two-thirds of the other Fire Spirit Insects have reached the Spiritual Profound Realm, and the remaining one-third have also reached the Spiritual Emperor Realm. It could be said that the overall strength of the Fire Spirit Insect had reached another level. It had become the most powerful group among the five Spirit Insects.
In addition, the strength of the others has also been significantly improved. Jiang Xu has been in seclusion in the dimension for five hundred years, and his strength has reached the level of nine stars in the Spiritual Ancestor Realm. Xiaoyue, Jin Xiao, Bai Hu, Pangpang, were also all nine-stars of the Spiritual Ancestor Realm. Xiaoyuan was eight-stars in the Spiritual Ancestor Realm and Liu Xuan was nine-stars in the Spiritual Profound Realm.
As everyone walked out of the Flame Desert, they were stopped by the Queen of the Snow Clan and her two daughters.
Seeing the person, Liu Mufeng couldn’t help but frown. He was the first to stop.
Following his lover, Jiang Xu and Liu Xuan behind him also stopped.
“Who is this Fellow Daoist?” Liu Mufeng raised his eyebrows as he looked at the Queen of the Snow Clan. He already guessed the identity of the other party.
“I am Xue Hu’s Sister, the Queen of the Snow Clan.” Looking at Liu Mufeng, the Queen’s face turned very ugly, because she had noticed that Liu Mufeng had not only advanced to the Spiritual Venerable Realm, but was actually in the two stars of the Spiritual Venerable Realm, not one star like she had expected, which shocked her. How was it possible? How was it possible that someone has just been promoted to the two stars of the Spiritual Venerable Realm?
“Oh, it turns out to be the Queen of the Snow Clan. I wonder why Her Royal Highness the Queen blocked my way?” Liu Mufeng asked knowingly.
“Master Alchemist Liu, my Brother Xue Hu said that you coveted our Snow Clan’s most precious treasure, the Celestial Snow Lotus, and ordered him to steal the Snow Lotus. Is this true?” The Queen directly asked Liu Mufeng
Liu Mufeng smiled upon hearing this. “Your Royal Highness Snow Queen, you really know how to joke. How could I, a human cultivator, instigate the Snow Clan’s Warrior? Besides, I have never been to the Snow Clan, and I have never seen Xue Hu, let alone this Celestial Snow Lotus.”
“Liu Mufeng, you’re lying! You shameless Human Race, hand over the Celestial Snow Lotus quickly!” Xue Jiao shouted while glaring at Liu Mufeng.
Liu Mufeng looked at Xue Jiao who was jumping up and down, and curled his lips in disdain. “I’ve heard for a long time that the Snow Clan is a country of etiquette. Is this a good Daughter taught by the Queen? She doesn’t respect her Elders and doesn’t distinguish between superior and inferior. Do you often like to act so ungrateful in front of your Elders?”
“You, you…” After hearing Liu Mufeng’s words, Xue Jiao’s face became even more ugly.
The Queen’s face also looked very ugly. Turning her head, she gave her Daughter a cold look. “I’m talking, don’t interrupt. Do you still have any rules?”
“Yes!” Xue Jiao responded angrily, lowering her head.
Taking out the contract between Liu Mufeng and Xue Hu, the Queen handed it to Liu Mufeng.
“Master Alchemist Liu, you said you have never met my Brother or the Celestial Snow Lotus. Then, how can you explain this contract?”
Looking at the contract in the Queen’s hand, Liu Mufeng smiled. He knew that Xue Hu should have been captured by the Snow Clan, and in order to protect himself, the other party must have put all the responsibilities on himself. “This contract can only prove that we did a business, but it cannot prove that I ordered others to steal.”
