Three months later,

By the time the Snow King brought the Second Prince, the Fourth Prince, the First Elder and the Third Elder, as well as the two female cultivators from the Human Race, a total seven people, to the Great Flame Desert, the Earth King and the Fire King had already arrived.

The Fire Clan was the closest to the Flame Desert, so the Fire King was the first to arrive. The Earth Clan was not far from here, and the people of the Earth Clan knew the Earth Escape Technique, so they weren’t slow in arriving.

After the Snow King arrived, he immediately went to the Fire King’s cave with the Fire King and the Earth King for a secret talk. The other people who came from the Snow Clan, Fire Clan and Earth Clan could only wait outside.

Sitting in the cave, the three Princes and two Elders were very curious about the identities of the two human female cultivators standing by. The two human female cultivators wore black clothes and masks on their faces, giving them a very mysterious feeling.

“How do we address the two Fellow Daoists?” The Second Prince spoke first.

Hearing this, one of the women snorted disdainfully. “Who is your Fellow Daoist?”

“Well…” After hearing this, the Second Prince looked embarrassed, but his Father brought them here. Even if he felt unhappy, he did not dare to say anything.

The Fourth Prince couldn’t help but raise his eyebrows as he heard the female cultivator’s words. He watched for a long time but could not see the strength of the female cultivator. He guessed that the other party should be a Spiritual Venerable Realm cultivator like the two Elders. Strange enough, where did Father King find such two female cultivators? Was it possible that Father King was hiding the beauties in a separate courtyard? Otherwise, how could these two female cultivators be in the Snow Clan?

Staring at the two female cultivators, the Second Prince actually had a lot of guesses. It’s just that he was humiliated just now, so he didn’t take the initiative to talk to the two of them again.

The First Elder sat aside silently and said nothing. The Third Elder’s eyes also fell on the two female cultivators curiously.

The Third Elder was a six-star cultivator in the Spiritual Venerable Realm, so he could see that these two cultivators were also at the Spiritual Venerable Realm. One was three-stars, and the other was a one-star in the Spiritual Venerable Realm. But it’s strange that the two of them were not that old. One was more than 1,400 years old, while the other was only 700 years old. It’s hard to imagine how two female cultivators at such a young age could possess such high strength? Really, even though he had seen countless big scenes, it was hard for the Third Elder to imagine that there would be such a young Spiritual Venerable Realm cultivator.

“They ran away?!” After receiving this news, the Snow King was filled with hatred.

“Snow King, Liu Mufeng and Jiang Xu are not casual cultivators. They both have backgrounds. Liu Mufeng’s Master is an eighth-level Alchemy Master and has great influence in the Human Race. Jiang Xu’s Master is the Sect Master of the Lingwu Sect. And just like us, he is a comrade in the Spiritual Sacred Realm. You came here with such a large force to deal with two Juniors of the Human Race. If their Masters finds out, it will not be a good thing.” The Fire King kindly reminded the Snow King.

Although the Ancient Clans and the Human Race lived in the North and the East respectively, they had always been in harmony with each other. However, if Liu Mufeng and Jiang Xu died in the North, it is estimated that the human race would not let it go.

“Originally I didn’t want to touch them. However, the two Juniors were so arrogant that they actually killed my Wife and two Daughters. They simply don’t take my Snow Clan seriously.” The Snow King’s expression was unusually distorted as he spoke of this matter.

“What? The Queen and the two Princesses died?” The Earth King asked, utterly confused

“Yes, the soul lamps are all extinguished.” Speaking of this, the Snow King gritted his teeth, his eyes filled with crazy hatred.

“It’s not right, is it? Don’t the two princesses have blood marks on them? If there were blood marks, the Snow King should be able to find the culprits easily,ah?” Looking at the Snow King, the Fire King asked with a curious expression.

“I don’t know why, but all my blood marks have disappeared.” The Snow King was also very depressed.

“If that’s the case, how are you so sure that Liu Mufeng killed them?” The Fire King asked again.

“I know. The three of them, Mother and Daughters, came out just to find Liu Mufeng.” The Snow King sighed softly.

“Is that so?” Upon hearing this, the Fire King was still a bit unconvinced.

“Earth King, do you think my Queen and my Daughters were killed by Liu Mufeng?” The Snow King asked.

“Snow King, I really don’t know about this. You also know that the Flame Desert is one of the ten most dangerous places. It is impossible for my people to enter the Flame Desert. It’s just that someone saw that about a hundred and twenty years ago, Liu Mufeng and his group entered the Great Flame Desert. After that, your Queen asked me for information about Liu Mufeng, so I sold the information to her. Later, about three months ago, someone saw Liu Mufeng and his party leaving. However, no one saw Liu Mufeng and his group fighting with the Queen or your Daughters, because at that time, someone used a space blockade, and no one knew what happened within the space. My Clan only saw Liu Mufeng and his group leaving. Later, we did not see the Queen or your Daughters.” The Earth King narrated the whole sequence of events.

“They must have killed them in that space.” The Snow King gritted his teeth with hatred.

Looking at the Snow King’s appearance, the Earth King rolled his eyes and said nothing more.

“Earth King, please ask your Clan to pay attention to Liu Mufeng’s news for me. I’ll reward the Earth Clan that provides news of Liu Mu Feng with ten million spirit stones.” The Snow King said.

“Okay, I will tell my people when I go back.” Nodding, the Earth King agreed.

“En. Thank you two Fellow Daoists. I’ll take my leave first.” After getting up, the Snow King left in a hurry.

Seeing the person leaving, the Fire King waved his sleeves and directly sealed the space. His eyes fell on the Earth King with interest. “Earth King, we have been friends for a long time. What is going on? How did this Snow Clan end up feuding with the Human Race for no good reason?”

Looking at the gossipy Fire King, the Earth King smiled wryly. “Actually, I don’t really blame Liu Mufeng for this matter. The Snow King has a brother-in-law named Xue Hu, you know, right?”

“En, I know, the one who fought against the Crystal Clan many years ago and his spiritual roots were damaged, the one who was crippled?”

“Yes, that’s the one with the thieving eyes. Not a good person at first glance.” The Earth King didn’t like this person.

“Does this matter have anything to do with him?”

“Yes, it happened because of him. Didn’t his spiritual roots become useless? So he wanted to buy Liu Mufeng’s Repairing Spiritual Roots Pill, but that pill is very expensive and Xue Hu couldn’t afford it. So, Xue Hu stole the Snow Clan’s most precious treasure, the Celestial Snow Lotus, and found Bing Yan, the Fifth Princess of the Ice Clan, to act as an intermediary for him, and found Liu Mufeng, and asked Liu Mufeng to help him heal his spiritual root.”

“Liu Mufeng agreed.” The Fire King was a cultivator from the Ancient Clan and naturally knew the value of the Celestial Snow Lotus. Alchemists from the Human Race all liked elixirs, so he thought Liu Mufeng would have definitely agreed.

“Yes, Liu Mufeng is of the Human Race, he probably doesn’t know much about this Celestail Snow Lotus either and thought it was something from Xue Hu. So he agreed to it and even signed a contract with the person to guarantee to cure Xue Hu. Later, after Xue Hu was cured, he didn’t dare to return to the Snow Clan. Liu Mufeng also came to the Flame Desert to practice. However, the good times didn’t last long, Xue Hu was caught back by the Snow Clan’s Elders, the Snow King wanted to behead Xue Hu, and Xue Hu, in order to protect himself, said that the matter was instructed by Liu Mufeng, and that he was forced to steal the Snow Lotus. The Snow Queen, in order to save her brother, took the initiative to come and look for Liu Mufeng and the Celestial Snow Lotus, but the Queen didn’t find Liu Mufeng in Sanyuan Town, so she looked for me to buy the information and came here. Although my Clan did not see Liu Mufeng and his group killing people with their own eyes. However, I think that the Queen, and the two Daughters should have been killed. After all, the Celestial Snow Lotus was traded by Liu Mufeng for twenty Repairing Spiritual Root Pills, so how could he return it when the Queen asked him for it?”

“That makes sense. Only Liu Mufeng in the Human Race can refine this Repairing Spiritual Root Pill, and its value is not much lower than that of the Celestial Snow Lotus. Liu Mufeng cured Xue Hu with the pills. In turn, the Queen of the Snow Clan came to tell that she wanted the Celestial Snow Lotus. Isn’t this going back on their word? Twenty Repairing Spiritual Root Pills are not a small amount, no one would be willing to suffer such a loss, right?” Nodding, the Fire King agreed.

“Yes, so this matter is all Xue Hu’s problem, and Liu Mufeng can’t be blamed entirely.”

“Earth King, the Human Race’s Liu Mufeng is not simple. I advise you not to wade into this muddy water. Don’t be implicated by the Snow Clan.” The Fire King said meaningfully.

Hearing this, the Earth King raised his eyebrows. “Fire King, is there something in your words? Do you know something?”

“There has always been a legend about the Great Flame Desert. Legend has it that when Pangu opened up the heavens, an indestructible flame was born along with it. This flame was very brutal, regicide, it went around killing, and wherever it passed, flowers, grass, trees, wood, demonic beasts, and cultivators all became a pile of ashes. Because it was too cruel, Goddess Nuwa united many Gods and sealed it in the desert. It was once said that if this heavenly fire can meet the destined Son of Heaven, it can get rid of the sealing cage and reappear on Earth, but if it can’t be met, it will be trapped in the desert forever.” At this point, the Fire King frowned.

“Eternal Fire? Is there a Mystic Fire trapped in the desert?” Looking at his old friend, the Earth King asked suspiciously.

“Yes, this eternal fire has been trapped in the desert, and the ancestors of our Fire Clan cultivators were the ones who participated in the sealing of the flame. We live nearby, and we are also guarding the Mystic Fire and waiting for the Son of Destiny to appear.” The Fire King lamented.

“This is the secret of the Fire Clan. Why did you tell me?”

“Because the Son of Destiny has appeared. The Mystic Fire has been taken away.” The Fire King told the truth.

“You, you mean, it’s Liu Mufeng? Liu Mufeng is the Son of Destiny, and he contracted a Mystic Fire?”

“It could also be Jiang Xu.”

“No, it must be Liu Mufeng. Liu Mufeng is an Alchemy Master, and the Mystic Fire is what he must fight for. Besides, he has the Celestial Snow Lotus in his hand to help him integrate the Mystic Fire. It must be Liu Mufeng who contracted the Mystic Fire.” The Earth King said with great certainty.

“Maybe.” At this point, the Fire King sighed. Unexpectedly, the Mystic Fire that the Fire Clan had guarded for generations would be contracted away so quietly.
