Fighting Soul Clan Demoness

Chapter 404: Master, why don’t you backstab Senior Brother?
"My help?"

Hearing this, Han Feng frowned slightly, obviously not expecting such a reply from the other party.

"Come to think of it, I heard from the Fiery Soul Envoy before that the Frost Protector seemed extremely interested in my identity, even going so far as to sacrifice his soul to inquire about it. Could it be that this matter is related?"

As early as when they first went to the Black Horn Region, Hun Ruoruo specifically instructed Li Hunshi to collect all kinds of identity information about Han Feng. Since this matter was not a secret, and the two were currently in a cooperative relationship, it naturally reached Han Feng's ears.

However, in his opinion, this matter is reasonable.

The status of alchemists in the relatively barren land of the Northwest Territory has almost reached a level of honor that can be described as pathological. With his title of "Emperor of Medicine", he is always treated as a guest of honor by major forces wherever he goes.

What's more, he has another widely recognized identity, that is, the only disciple under Master Yao Zun!
The value of this identity can only be fully understood by those who have truly witnessed the magnificent world of Zhongzhou. Therefore, being appreciated by a guardian whom one has never met is not something to be puzzled about.

After hearing Han Feng's words, the man in the black robe paused for a moment, then bowed to him.

"Your Excellency the Medicine King is quite well-informed."

"Haha, to be honest, I have also collected information about the alchemists in the Jiama Empire. The most outstanding one among them seems to be only a mid-level sixth-grade alchemist."

Han Feng smiled faintly and said calmly, "After reaching the sixth level of alchemy, the difference of one level is like a chasm. He is still far from meeting the needs of a Dou Zong master."

Hearing this, Xiao Yan's eyes flashed with a strange color, but he nodded without showing any trace on his face and said:
"The Medicine Emperor is indeed worthy of his reputation. Even a layman like me has learned so many tricks."

Xiao Yan knew that although the other party's words were quite arrogant, they did make some sense.

Although Gu He's fame is well-known in the Jia Ma Empire, it is obviously not as good as others in the Black Horn Region. There are even very few people who have heard of his name.

The reason is because of the strange fire that Han Feng possesses!
Alchemists who possess strange fire have a qualitative leap compared to ordinary alchemists, whether it is the degree of refining of medicinal materials or the quality of the pills when they are formed.

It was precisely because of this that Gu He lost his usual gentle demeanor when he missed out on the Azure Lotus Earth Core Fire, becoming so angry that he almost lost his mind.

Without the assistance of the strange fire, and with his not-so-outstanding talent in cultivation, he might never be able to reach the threshold of the seventh rank in his entire life!

Seeing the extremely polite attitude of the man in black robe, Han Feng couldn't help but show a hint of arrogance on his face. He smiled with his hands behind his back and said:
"Don't worry, Flame Soul Envoy. I came to Canaan Academy this time only to seek that mysterious fire. If the Frost Protector can help you, no matter what the conditions are, as long as I, Han Feng, can do it, I will definitely offer it to you."

"In that case, thank you very much, Your Excellency the Medicine Emperor."

After hearing this, the black-robed figure no longer hesitated. After politely clasping his fists again, he turned around and hid in the shadows, disappearing without a trace.

Sensing the disappearance of the black shadow's aura, Han Feng couldn't help but slowly exhale a breath of foul air, looking down at the outline of the inner courtyard with a condescending look, a blue light surging in his eyes.

"Master, tsk tsk, now my disciple's second kind of strange fire is within reach. If you knew about this in the afterlife, how would you feel?"

As he was speaking, a blush suddenly appeared on Han Feng's handsome face. The intense pain caused fine beads of cold sweat to appear on his forehead. He actually bent over and started coughing violently.

The next moment, he raised his palm and slammed it on his chest, causing a mouthful of blood and phlegm to spurt out. After a full half moment, his complexion began to improve.

"Damn it!"

Han Feng gritted his teeth, his face filled with hatred:

"Old man, you refused to teach me the complete 'Burning Art' back then, causing me to be tortured by this Sea Heart Flame day and night. If it weren't for that, I would have already been promoted to Dou Zong by now, and why would I be wasting my time here at the peak of Dou Huang!"

As the words fell, the man's palms were clenched tightly together, and he whispered coldly:

"Just wait. With the help of the Strange Fire and the Sect Breaking Pill, I will be able to break through to become a Dou Zong, not to mention a Seventh-Rank Alchemist. What a bullshit about evil intentions! My alchemy talent is much stronger than yours!"

Under the shade of the trees, in the shadows.

In a corner where no one noticed, a figure in a black robe was leaning against a tree, hearing all of Han Feng's mumbling.

This person was surprisingly the 'Flame Soul Envoy' who had fled far away earlier.

"Complete Burning Technique"

The figure murmured to himself, "So the Burning Technique also has complete and incomplete forms?"

After the words fell, a moment later, a rather deep voice suddenly sounded in his heart.

"There is only one copy of the Burning Technique in the world, so naturally there is no distinction between complete and incomplete."

"No fragments? Then how did he practice the 'Burning Technique'?"

Hearing this, the figure was stunned and raised his head. The brim of his black robe lifted slightly, revealing an extremely young face. It was Xiao Yan, who had temporarily left the academy.

"Back when he was still my disciple, he took advantage of my inattention and secretly browsed through the 'Burning Technique'. Fortunately, he was discovered in time. In his haste, he only had time to memorize a small part of the training route."

Memories of the past flashed through his mind, and Yao Lao's voice became hoarse.

"The reason he's now suffering the backlash of the Sea Heart Flame is probably due to the incompleteness of his cultivation technique. He's reaping what he sows, and can't blame anyone else."

Xiao Yan was silent.

The apprentice whom he had personally taught resolutely stabbed himself with the blade. This pain could not be simply dismissed with a word of hatred.

What's more, based on his understanding of his master, he knew that when teaching his disciples, the other party would definitely put in unimaginable efforts. In addition, since he had always been a loner, it was natural for him to treat his master as his own son.

The deeper the love, the deeper the hate.
Hearing Han Feng's muttering curses from afar, Xiao Yan couldn't help but clench his fists and whispered:
"teacher."

"It doesn't matter."

Yao Lao waved his hand, and his face, which originally did not look like that of an old man, suddenly became much older.

"Ever since that traitor colluded with the Soul Palace, I've let it go. He's naturally cold-hearted, but unlike Ruoruo, he's not driven by circumstances. Ultimately, it's because I neglected to discipline him."

"I just didn't expect that this traitor, having taken my mantle, still wasn't satisfied and was still filled with resentment towards me. How ridiculous, how ridiculous!"

The two laughable sounds expressed all the desolation.

Anyone could feel that compared to his anger towards Han Feng's unrepentant behavior, Yao Lao's tone contained more self-mockery.

After many years of separation, they met again, only to be met with private abuse from the other party. It was no wonder that he felt this way.
His fingers slowly touched the ring, murderous intent rising in Xiao Yan's eyes, and then he kept turning the angle of the ring, as if he was lost in thought.

Suddenly, he took a deep breath and whispered, "Teacher, I have a plan."

It must be said that Xiao Yan's mind was indeed extremely delicate. He did not choose to say any words of comfort at this moment. Instead, he cleverly changed the topic, which eased the originally slightly sad atmosphere a lot.

"Ok?"

As expected, Xiao Yan's words immediately attracted Yao Lao's attention.

He secretly dried the tears in his eyes and said solemnly:

"Stinky boy, Han Feng has gathered so many people now, it is definitely not a joke. Even if we seize the initiative, you can't be careless."

"Teacher, don't worry. Facing this group of Douhuang-level figures, I will naturally not be careless at all."

Xiao Yan smiled slightly and said softly, "But if I were to face Han Feng, I would be somewhat confident."

"What are you talking about, little brat?"

Yao Lao thought Xiao Yan was blinded by hatred and immediately scolded him:
"That traitor is at the peak of Dou Huang's cultivation. With the blessing of the Sea Heart Flame, his strength can even approach Dou Zong in a short period of time. If you want to deal with him, do you still need to use that Fire Lotus in the inner courtyard?"

In Yao Lao's opinion, although Canaan College had Ruoruo and him guarding it, the biggest threat was the mysterious guardian hiding in the dark, so he naturally could not take advantage of the chaos to take care of Han Feng.

No matter what, Xiao Yan alone would not be able to shake Han Feng, who is at the peak of Dou Huang.

"Haha, what the teacher said is right. If it were any other Dou Huang, I'm afraid I would have a hard time dealing with it. But if I were to face Han Feng, the situation would be completely different."

As he spoke, two dark-golden evil rays suddenly lit up in Xiao Yan's eyes, and his fierce light suddenly increased.
"Now that we know his weakness, it will be hard for us to lose."

As a practitioner of the orthodox Burning Art, Xiao Yan's understanding of the Burning Art has obviously surpassed Yao Lao's. Naturally, he could see the abnormality in Han Feng's incomplete scroll of the Burning Art!
Xiao Yan had experienced the feeling of being unable to suppress the strange fire in his body too many times before, so he naturally knew how terrifying a threat this state was to a cultivator.

Not to mention fighting, even if you are practicing normally, if you encounter such a situation, you will be at risk of exploding and dying!
"Using the devouring power of the Void Spirit Devouring Flame to trigger the riot of the Sea Heart Flame within his body, how long do you think his incomplete Burning Art can hold out?"

The young man's gentle words made Yao Lao more and more frightened. In the end, he couldn't help rubbing his eyes, as if he saw the familiar shadow of his own little disciple in the other person, treacherous and cruel.

"When that time comes, Master, why don't you backstab Senior Brother?"

Xiao Yan licked the corner of his mouth, suddenly revealing two rows of sharp white teeth, "After all, we are now colleagues, you can't just not work."

Yao Lao: “?”
