Soul Emperor Martial God

Chapter 796: Chapter 796: Encountering the Fire Intent Sect Again

”Do you remember what I said?” Qin Hongyi glared at Xiao Yi coldly.

”I forgot.” Xiao Yi replied indifferently, unwilling to bother.

Qin Hongyi said coldly, ”I told you not to let me see you at Boiling Volcano again.”

”Otherwise, no one can save your life.”

”You can try.” Xiao Yi had no interest in talking with a bunch of fools; after saying this, he planned to pick the Fire Heart Grass and leave.

”Boy, are you deaf? Stop!” Another furious cry.

The speakers were two elders from the Fire Intent Sect.

It was also their angry cries that had stopped Xiao Yi before.

”Boy, get out of here immediately. If even one plant of Fire Heart Grass is missing, I will take your life,” another elder shouted angrily.

Xiao Yi sneered, ”What, is this Fire Heart Grass your property? Why shouldn’t I pick it?”

The elder shouted coldly, ”How dare you! The Fire Heart Grass is not ours, but it belongs to the Holy Mountain.”

”You are not allowed to pick it without the permission of the Holy Mountain.”

”If you act alone and offend the Holy Mountain, be prepared to be hunted down by all the forces within tens of thousands of miles around Boiling Volcano.”

”Permission from the Holy Mountain?” Xiao Yi’s face twitched.

He really didn’t want to waste another half sentence on these lunatics.

With a sweep of his hand, he directly picked the Fire Heart Grass.

”You dare?”

”Damn it, I’ll kill you.”

Both elders were instantly furious.

However, in the moment of their rage, a loud roaring sound came from afar.

”Uh?” Xiao Yi frowned; in the distance was an immensely tall mountain.

A mountain that one couldn’t see the top of.

The roaring was coming from above the mountain.

”Holy Mountain is enraged,” the two elders’ faces changed drastically.

Bang... Just then, a huge flaming fireball came hurtling from afar at a shocking speed.

Almost within a breath, it arrived in front of Xiao Yi.

Xiao Yi turned and punched out.

With a loud bang.

The huge fireball was directly shattered, scattering sparks.

”Demon power?” Xiao Yi frowned.

When he had punched the huge fireball, he clearly felt a hint of demon beast essence.

However, this essence was extremely weak.

And it faded quickly.

Such a weak and rapidly dispersing essence would have almost gone unnoticed if Xiao Yi wasn’t a Demon Hunter with superior perception.

”Boy, that was just a warning from the Holy Mountain,” the two elders said sternly, their faces looking troubled.

”If you make any further moves, you will face the devastating wrath of the Holy Mountain.”

”The power of Heaven and Earth, something you cannot contend with.”

”The power of Heaven and Earth?” Xiao Yi sneered.

The huge fireball that had come roaring had not contained even a hint of Heaven and Earth Martial Arts Power; it was merely demon beast essence.

”I want to see if it dares to bombard me a second time.” Xiao Yi thought coldly.

That huge fireball, in terms of power, was only about Earth Extreme Sixth Layer.

If it came again, he was confident he could follow the essence and find whatever was behind the attack.

He wanted to see which cursed creature was playing tricks.

With this thought, Xiao Yi reached for the second Fire Heart Grass.

However, at that moment, a series of intense, sharp gazes focused on him.

”Uh?” Xiao Yi looked up.

Around him, he didn’t know when, but a large group of martial artists had appeared.

Each one glared fiercely, weapons in hand, watching Xiao Yi coldly.

That sort of gaze, as if should Xiao Yi dare to pick another Fire Heart Grass, he would immediately face their storm-like attack.

Xiao Yi’s eyes went cold, he had no interest in dealing with these people.

But that was under one condition; they must not provoke him.

Xiao Yi’s hand had already grasped the second Fire Heart Grass.

Two elders from the Fire Intent Sect instantly revealed murderous intent, ”Kid, don’t think that your mere Earth Extreme Seventh Layer Cultivation is anything special.”

”If it weren’t for the lack of permission from the Holy Mountain, we would have slaughtered you by now.”

These two elders from the Fire Intent Sect were Earth Extreme Peak martial artists.

Of course, Xiao Yi’s Cultivation was only at the Earth Extreme Seventh Layer.

But he had already killed countless Earth Extreme Peak martial artists.

Just as Xiao Yi was about to pick the herbs, a gentle voice came from nearby.

”Please come out, young master.”

A figure appeared out of thin air.

It was a woman dressed in plain clothes, who was none other than Cheng Suyan.

Xiao Yi did not want to pay attention, but Cheng Suyan kept giving him meaningful glances.

Her looks were filled with urgency.

Xiao Yi frowned, and his hand holding the Fire Heart Grass suddenly loosened.

Then, in a flash, he moved out of the area filled with steaming vapor and came to Cheng Suyan’s side.

Picking the Fire Heart Grass was not urgent; it could be easily collected at any time.

Now, he was curious to see what was going on here.

Cheng Suyan sighed in relief when she saw Xiao Yi stop picking the herbs.

”What a coincidence, young master,” Cheng Suyan said with a smile.

”What is going on here?” Xiao Yi asked in confusion.

”You don’t know?” Cheng Suyan exclaimed with a slight shock on her face.

At this moment, the surrounding martial artists, including those from the Fire Intent Sect, withdrew their previous hostility.

Then, they stood there without making any more moves.

It seemed they were waiting for something.

Xiao Yi looked at Cheng Suyan in puzzlement and asked, ”Should I know?”

”Of course,” Cheng Suyan replied in surprise, ”Otherwise why would you come to the Boiling Volcano?”

”What I just said being a coincidence was merely a joke.”

Xiao Yi frowned and remained silent.

Seeing Xiao Yi’s confused expression, Cheng Suyan exclaimed in surprise, ”Young master, surely you didn’t come to the Boiling Volcano just for training?”

”Yes,” Xiao Yi nodded.

”Ha,” Cheng Suyan slapped her forehead and said, ”That really is a coincidence.”

”Today is the day of the Boiling Volcano’s mountain sacrifice.”

”Every year on this day, nearly all the forces within tens of thousands of miles around the Boiling Volcano send martial artists here.”

”Mountain Sacrifice Day?” Xiao Yi glanced at the surrounding martial artists and asked, ”Are these the warriors from the major forces nearby?”

”Exactly,” Cheng Suyan answered, ”They’ve been arriving for several days now.”

”As of now, the forces that have come here number no fewer than a hundred.”

”And there are also thousands of martial artists.”

”It won’t be long before more martial artists arrive.”

While saying this, Cheng Suyan looked Xiao Yi up and down a few times and said, ”Tsk tsk, who would have thought that with a change of clothes, young master would look quite distinguished, a handsome young master no less.”

”Handsome?” Xiao Yi was puzzled.

”Right,” Cheng Suyan laughed, ”Considering the Elixir Elixir I gave you previously, which allowed you to safely reach this place.”

”And saving your life this time, that makes it twice I’ve helped you, young master.”

”How do you plan to repay me?”

”Saved me?” Xiao Yi smiled faintly, noncommittally.

”Isn’t it?” Cheng Suyan retorted angrily, ”If it weren’t for me urging you to come out just now, you might already have been surrounded and killed by the martial artists here.”

”You seem to be more than just a nobody, perhaps there are forces behind you.”

”But, no matter how mighty the forces behind you are, they cannot withstand the assault of all the warriors here, let alone the wrath of the Holy Mountain.”

Cheng Suyan chuckled lightly and said, ”How about this, young master? Either pay me millions in silver, or, marry me. I’m not very picky; I can barely accept someone like you.”

”Ha,” Xiao Yi chuckled lightly, then frowned and said, ”The wrath of the Holy Mountain? It’s just a mountain.”

”Just a mountain...?” Hearing this, Cheng Suyan stopped joking, her expression suddenly becoming serious, ”No, this is not an ordinary mountain.”

”This is the Holy Mountain.”

”It, has life.”
