The big cat suddenly jumped out from the darkness, giving Mo Huaian a fright.

The young wizard almost activated the talisman in his hand, but fortunately he discovered in time that it was Zhang Yuan's beast, thus avoiding an accidental injury to friendly forces.

The gray-fanged lynx ignored Mo Huaian completely. It leaped in front of Zhang Yuan, shook its head and dropped the thing in its mouth.

A gray cloth bag.

There was obviously something in the cloth bag; it was bulging and looked quite heavy.

Ouch~

The gray-fanged lynx raised its head and growled at Zhang Yuan.

There was still some blood at the corner of its mouth.

Zhang Yuan reached out and rubbed the big cat's furry head, then picked up the things the cat brought back.

He untied the rope of the cloth bag, and a bright light suddenly came out from inside.

A jade lion the size of an adult's palm appeared in front of Zhang Yuan!

This lion is carved so lifelike that it demonstrates the craftsmanship of the craftsman. Its material is extremely beautiful, like a pool of clear water that has solidified and condensed, full of green and lively.

The most important thing is that Zhang Yuan can feel the spirituality inherent in this jade lion!
This is a mysterious weapon.

He suddenly understood - this might be the thing the people from Huo Family Castle wanted to get back!
"The Jade Lion."

Zhang Yuan weighed the emerald lion in his hand and handed it to Mo Huaian: “This is the Huo family’s inheritance treasure. I didn’t expect it to fall into our hands.”

The origin of the emerald lion was exactly what Huo Zhennan had just said.

Although this guy was seriously injured and dying, and could only answer limited questions, Zhang Yuan easily deduced the truth of the whole matter by combining cause and effect.

All I can say is that justice will always come to those who pay.

The people of Huo Family Castle thought that the Jade Lion fell into the hands of Zhang Yuan and Mo Huaian, so they sent out elite forces to attack at night, trying to surround and kill the two men beside the official road.

As a result, they were severely injured by the two men, and only a few people escaped.

Finally, the jade lion fell into Zhang Yuan's hands.

Through communicating with the Gray-fanged Lynx, Zhang Yuan learned that it had discovered this thing while chasing the enemy.

The big cat's intuition made it realize that it was of extraordinary value, so it took it back.

Of course, the target being chased by the Gray-fanged Lynx also died under its sharp claws and fangs.

The Gray-fang Lynx is at level three, close to level four, and its combat power is comparable to that of a level four expert. The night environment is its home turf.

The fate of the enemy it targets is doomed!

But Zhang Yuan didn’t expect that this big cat actually had the ability to “hunt for treasure”.

Regardless of whether it was a blind cat catching a dead mouse or not, it brought Zhang Yuan the biggest gain of the night.

Worth the reward!

“This thing is interesting.”

Mo Huaian played with it for a while, then returned the jade lion to Zhang Yuan: "It should be a seal, and there is something sealed inside. Only if you know the correct method can you unseal it intact."

"Otherwise, both jade and stone will perish!"

The young wizard smiled meaningfully and said, "The Huo family probably got it by accident. Since they couldn't find a way to unlock it, they could only store it as a treasure of inheritance. I didn't expect it to be stolen."

Zhang Yuan took the jade lion thoughtfully and asked, "Junior brother, is there anyone in Shangjingtian who can unlock the seal?"

Mo Huaian replied proudly: “Of course!”

But his face fell immediately: "But that master may not be willing to help."

Zhang Yuan smiled and said, "It doesn't matter. Let's talk about it when we get back."

After a pause, Zhang Yuan added: "Everyone who sees it gets a share. If we can successfully unblock it in the future, we will each take half of the things inside." "No, no!"

Mo Huaian waved his hands repeatedly, with a shy look on his face: "Brother Zhang, this is your opportunity, I can't take it for nothing."

Zhang Yuan shook his head and did not continue the topic. He asked, "What are your plans next? Should we destroy the Huo Family Castle?"

Destroy the Huo Family Castle?
Mo Huaian was stunned.

Zhang Yuan said it lightly, but the strong murderous intent and bloody meaning contained in his tone made him shudder.

The young wizard never expected that Zhang Yuan would be so murderous!
The word "destruction" cannot be said casually.

To exterminate an entire family means to kill all the women, children, the elderly and the weak, leaving no one alive in the entire clan.

Does Zhang Yuan have such ability?
Mo Huaian had just heard Zhang Yuan's questioning of Huo Zhennan, and knew that the strongest person in the Huo Family Castle was only a fifth-level warrior, and it was really possible that the entire family could be wiped out by Zhang Yuan.

With him included, there will be no problem at all!

But Mo Huaian felt that enough people had died tonight.

Zhang Yuan saw his hesitation and astonishment and said with a smile, "It's okay. This is just my personal suggestion. If you don't want to cause any trouble, then just let Huo's Castle go."

Mo Huaian was silent for a moment, then smiled bitterly and said, “Is this the martial arts world?”

Zhang Yuan nodded: "Yes."

What is arena?

Where people have grudges, that’s the world of martial arts; the law of the jungle is also the world of martial arts; fighting and killing is even more of the world of martial arts!

In what happened tonight, Zhang Yuan and Mo Huaian were completely the passive parties. The incident was not caused by the two of them, and the provocation and hostility from the Huo Family Castle were enough to put the two of them on a high position of morality and legal principles.

No matter what kind of counterattack, it is all reasonable.

Nothing to complain about!

Strictly speaking, the actions of the Huo family's elite men to surround and kill Zhang Yuan and Mo Huaian were a great offense to Shang Jingtian.

To exterminate their entire family is also to maintain the dignity of the sect!

Of course, since Mo Huaian was unwilling, Zhang Yuan naturally wouldn't force it.

The young wizard held the talisman in his hand and stared blankly at the blazing bonfire in front of him.

His eyes slowly scanned the surroundings, passing by the shattered corpses.

There was a hint of confusion in his eyes.

But Zhang Yuan felt that this sect's true disciple, who was ignorant of worldly affairs, had begun to mature after this battle.

The night is long and it is not over yet.

Neither of them felt sleepy, so they simply sat around the campfire, barbecuing, drinking, and talking about martial arts and philosophy until dawn.

Zhang Yuan discovered that although Mo Huaian was very young, he had a wealth of knowledge.

According to Mo Huaian himself, he has the natural ability to remember everything he sees. No matter how thick a book is, he can remember it all by just flipping through it once.

Mo Huaian also likes reading, and he often stays in the sect's library for days and nights, reading a wide range of books and classics.

Therefore, a large amount of book knowledge has been accumulated.

Many of the classics he had read were things that Zhang Yuan was not qualified to read.

After a night of conversation, Zhang Yuan benefited a lot.

Early the next morning, he and Mo Huaian packed their bags and continued on their journey.

Stay away from this troubled place.

As evening approached, a long caravan appeared in their sight! ——
