Versatile Mage: The Crimson Flame Lion, the Strongest Spirit!

Chapter 2: Bocheng Mu Family
Li Xuan looked at the wooden box that suddenly appeared in front of him, his heart full of doubts.

He carefully reached out and touched the wooden box. It felt warm to the touch, and the material was like jade but not jade, exuding a mysterious aura.

"What is this?" Li Xuan looked up at the Kunlun Demon King, his eyes full of vigilance.

"Open it and you'll know." The Kunlun Demon King raised the corners of his mouth slightly, revealing a mysterious smile.

Li Xuan hesitated for a moment, then opened the wooden box with gritted teeth.

In an instant, a dazzling light shot out from the wooden box, stinging his eyes.

When the light gradually dissipated, Li Xuan saw a crystal clear jade pendant lying in the wooden box.

There were some strange runes engraved on the jade pendant, which emitted a faint light.

"This is..." Li Xuan picked up the jade pendant and looked at it carefully.

"This is my jade pendant, and it's also a vessel. It contains some things you can use."

Hearing this, Li Xuan probed his thoughts into the jade pendant, and took a deep breath after just a glance.

Inside the jade pendant were two soul-level fire soul seeds and a series of fire-type resources.
He never expected that the Kunlun Demon King would be so generous.

"It has been five years since you entered the Kunlun Mountains. To me, it's just a blink of an eye, but to you humans, it's a world of change."

"Your presence has made me very happy during this period, so these are rewards."

"Thank you, Your Majesty the Demon King." Li Xuan bowed deeply to the Kunlun Demon King.

This jade pendant caused quite a stir in his heart.

As expected, the jade pendant given by the Kunlun Demon King is the same cultivation artifact as the Qinglong vessel!

Even more comprehensive.

"You are my person. When you walk outside, you represent not only yourself but also me." The voice of Kunlun Demon King was soft but majestic.

"Of course, the main reason is that you have merged with my Blazing Sun Divine Eye. You can't die."

Speaking of this, the Kunlun Demon King's eyes seemed to be able to see through his appearance and into Li Xuan's spiritual world.

It should be said that it is the pair of red eyes reflecting the starry sky in the vast universe.

This is the abnormal change caused by the Fire Galaxy under the influence of the Blazing Sun Divine Eye...

"Also, the jade pendant contains some of my powers. If you encounter a desperate situation, you can activate them with your mind."

"Okay, you can go down the mountain now."

Li Xuan and the Red Flame Lion saluted the Kunlun Demon King again, then turned and walked down the mountain.

They both have no family in this world, so the Kunlun Demon King is, in a sense, their 'elder.'

But this person is really not easy to mess with.

Along the way, the man and the beast felt particularly relaxed, as if they had taken off a heavy shackle.

The red flame lion transformed into a small toy and lay on Li Xuan's shoulder. They chatted while walking.

……

In a courtyard of the Mu family manor.

Li Xuan lay on the chair, squinting his eyes and enjoying this rare relaxing time.

The gentle breeze brought with it the scent of flowers, which gradually relaxed his nerves that had been tense for a long time.

The red-flame lion also lay lazily at his feet, yawning from time to time, looking very cute.

Who would have thought that he, who was still running around and sleeping in the open air a few months ago, could now live peacefully in this luxurious Mu manor.

All this was thanks to his accidental help after he came down the mountain.

That day, when he was passing through a small town, he happened to be attacked by demons.

Li Xuan was kind-hearted to begin with, and seeing this scene, he took action without hesitation to deal with the demon.

The townspeople were deeply grateful to Li Xuan for saving their lives. At that time, people from the Mu family were also passing by the town.

They immediately wanted to recruit young talents like Li Xuan.

Li Xuan was a little hesitant at first, but thinking that he needed a place to stay in order to understand the world, he readily agreed.

After arriving at the Mu’s manor, Li Xuan discovered that this was actually the Mu family in Bo City.

Because of this, he also understood the current timeline. "Li Xuan, are you practicing?"

At this moment, a cold voice came through the door.

"Enter."

Hearing the voice of the person coming, Li Xuan slowly opened his eyes, and the corners of his mouth unconsciously rose, revealing a faint smile.

"It's Ning Xue, right? Come in."

The door was gently pushed open, and a woman in a light blue dress walked in with light steps.

She had a graceful figure, skin whiter than snow, and a cool aura between her eyebrows. She was none other than Mu Ningxue, the talented girl of the Mu family.

"I saw the door to your yard was not closed, so I thought of coming in to take a look."

Mu Ningxue walked over to Li Xuan, her eyes fixed on his contented expression, a barely perceptible glint of envy flashing in her eyes.

"What's wrong? Is the accompanying magic tool acting up again?"

Li Xuan looked at Mu Ningxue as she approached, a look of doubt on her face.

Mu Ningxue's heart warmed, and then she shook her head slightly. "No, my father asked me to take you over there for dinner. Mainly to thank you for helping me suppress the side effects of the Ice Bow."

That’s right, Li Xuan’s arrival some time ago effectively healed her gradually frozen heart.

Even the bow that made her feel death was suppressed by Li Xuan.

"I'm a little hungry, how about you, Red Flame Lion?"

Li Xuan nodded, then looked at the little mechanical lion lying at his feet.

"I can do anything." The red flame lion yawned.

"Then you arrange it." Li Xuan said with a smile.

Actually, he and Mu Ningxue had some connection. In a sense, Mu Ningxue's power was very similar to the Blazing Sun Divine Eye in his body.

Using the Blazing Sun Divine Eye could be self-destructive, while Mu Ningxue's Ice Crystal Bow consumes a large amount of mental energy, even the soul.

The risks of both are enormous.

It was for this reason that Li Xuan came into contact with Mu Ningxue.

Geniuses always appreciate each other, and Li Xuan's Blazing Sun Divine Eye can suppress the power of ice in his body.

Over time, the two naturally became familiar with each other.

Li Xuan stood up, straightened his clothes, and walked side by side with Mu Ningxue towards the main hall of the Mu family.

Along the way, the breeze rustled Mu Ningxue's hair, and her faint fragrance drifted in the air, making people feel relaxed and happy.

The two chatted casually, and the topics mostly revolved around cultivation and some interesting stories in Bo City recently.

Li Xuan's conversation was witty and humorous, which made Mu Ningxue's mouth curl up from time to time, revealing a rare smile.

His originally cold temperament softened a lot at this moment.

Soon, they arrived at the main hall.

At this time, the main hall was already filled with sumptuous dishes, and the rich aroma filled the air, causing Li Xuan's stomach to growl.

Mu Zhuoyun, the head of the Mu family in Bo City, had already been waiting in the hall. When he saw Li Xuan and Mu Ningxue come in, he stood up to greet them.

"Li Xuan, come and sit down." Mu Zhuoyun greeted Li Xuan with a smile on his face, his eyes full of appreciation and gratitude.

"Today's meal is mainly to thank you for your care and help to Xiaoxue during this period. If it weren't for you, Xiaoxue would have suffered so much."

Seeing that his daughter enjoyed interacting with this young talent, the happiest person was none other than Mu Zhuoyun.

Neither his daughter nor Li Xuan can be restrained by Bocheng.

One was admitted to the Imperial Capital Academy at a young age and broke through to the intermediate level, while the other had a mysterious background but an absurdly high level of cultivation.

Li Xuan quickly waved his hand and said modestly, "Uncle, you are too polite. Ning Xue is extremely talented. I believe she will be able to control the power of ice in no time."

After exchanging pleasantries, the two took their seats.
