Battle Through the Heavens: I confronted Xiao Yan, and he begged me to be his elder brother.

Chapter 95 Elder: Questioning? Are you telling me how to do things?

A fire is no small matter, especially one that occurred in the Soul Realm.

Secondly, the raging fire was so loud that it was impossible for anyone to miss it.

In a short while, countless figures gathered around the fire scene.

"Where did the fire come from?"

"This flame is so strange; ordinary water has no effect on it."

"It seems like my entire area has been bought up by Hun Li. Who would dare set fire to his house?"

As more people gathered, their chatter spread.

Figures with wings condensed with fighting spirit kept flying through the air, sprinkling water onto the flames.

However, before the water could even hit the ground, it evaporated into mist and dissipated.

Some people tried to rush in, but as soon as they got close, something completely formed of flames appeared before them, baring its fangs and claws and radiating terrifying fire power.

These fire spirits have received orders from Hun Cang not to allow anyone to approach.

Similarly, the area they burned was limited to the surrounding houses that had been deliberately vandalized.

Even though some houses were connected, the flames showed no sign of spreading.

Among the crowd, some people were familiar with the owner of the burned house, and their faces showed schadenfreude, as if they were waiting to see a show.

In response to the questions from those around him, the man said, "Remember that test three years ago? Someone stepped forward and, relying on a blood connection with the clan leader, made a request. Do you recall?"

The people around nodded.

The man continued, "At the time, many people thought he would die, but he actually survived and even received the clan leader's approval. However, you all know his identity without me having to say it. With that kind of identity, it was already a reward from the clan leader to keep him in the clan. But he was unwilling and wanted to compete with the real young masters like Hunyu, Hunli, and Hunya."

He paused at this point.

"I know, the person you're talking about must be Hun Cang."

"I really don't understand where he got the guts. Since he had an opportunity, why didn't he just focus on developing it instead of going and competing with those people?"

"Yes, if I had that alchemy skill, I would be living a life of luxury outside."

Aside from Hun Cang, no one else in this area is particularly famous.

Therefore, everyone quickly guessed it, and then everyone's face showed an expression of anticipation for a good show.

Don't be fooled by the fact that Hun Cang is nominally the son of the clan leader, Hun Tiandi. But think about it: how many offspring does the clan leader have?

Aside from his skill in alchemy, Hun Cang has no other outstanding strengths. Under such circumstances, he still dares to demand the management authority of the branch hall and wants to compete with those people.

How could we possibly win?

Behind those people, either their elders hold important positions, or they themselves possess exceptional talent, pure bloodlines, and limitless potential.

In comparison, apart from her mother, Hun Cang had no one in the Hun Clan who could speak for her.

At this moment, two figures squeezed in from outside the crowd, and everyone looked over, immediately quieting down their discussions.

Hun Linhua only managed to avoid fainting thanks to Yun Yun's support.

When she reached the edge and saw the houses ablaze with fire, her heart sank.

When Protector Wu became Hun Cang's subordinate, he returned to his clan once and discovered Hun Linhua's situation. He then suggested that he tell Hun Cang about it.

However, Hun Linhua rejected this suggestion because she knew very well that her son had neither the confidence nor the strength to compete with those people.

That's why she kept quiet and restrained herself, even when Hun Cang asked her several times, she chose to avoid the topic.

Who would have thought that Hun Cang would trick him into coming out under the pretense of buying groceries.

"Auntie, it's alright. Young Master Cang isn't an impulsive person. If he dared to do it, he must have the ability," Yun Yun said, glancing at Hun Linhua's expression.

However, deep down, Yunyun also felt somewhat uncertain.

There are too many powerful people here. After returning to his clan, Hun Cang's strength seemed somewhat mediocre.

"Strength? Within the clan, it's all about rules and background; strength is the least useful thing." Upon hearing Yun Yun's words, someone nearby coldly mocked her.

The strange fire burned extremely quickly; in the time it took to speak, everything was reduced to ashes.

The smoke was controlled by a force, swirling and drifting into the sky.

Once the flames disappeared, the fire spirits transformed into streams of light and rushed straight into Hun Cang's body.

"Come on, this brat, he's so disobedient, I'm going to teach him a lesson today!" Seeing the flames disappear, Hun Linhua gripped Yun Yun's hand tightly and stormed inside.

The impact of this fire is neither too big nor too small; it mainly depends on the homeowner's perspective.

Before the elder in charge arrives, quickly take Cang'er to apologize to the other party, pay some money, and seek forgiveness.

Hun Linhua quickly came up with a solution.

Wow!

But as soon as she took two steps, a low gasp suddenly rose from the surroundings, and everyone looked up at the sky.

A man with a somber expression walked over. Each step he took seemed slow, yet he could cover a distance of more than ten meters.

In the blink of an eye, the person had already arrived above the Hun Cang family.

This work was compiled and uploaded by [author's name].

"Auntie, what's wrong? Are you alright?" Yun Yun asked curiously, when suddenly she felt a weight on her arm, and Hun Linhua's legs went weak and she collapsed.

Helped up by Yun Yun, Hun Linhua was pale and completely lost.

"It is Elder Chen, the Soul Master."

"This is the most strict elder in the disciplinary committee, and also the easiest elder to bribe."

"Bribing my ass! You probably don't even know that Elder Hun Chen is Hun Li's uncle."

Before Yun Yun could ask Hun Linhua for the specific reason for her reaction, she found the answer from the surrounding discussions.

Yun Yun had overheard the discussion before; the owner of these houses was named Hun Li.

Now, the elder in charge of handling this matter is actually related to Hun Li. What will Hun Cang do?

Is he going to confront the opponent head-on? Yun Yun was a little worried. There were quite a few people here who were more powerful than Hun Cang. If he offended an elder, wouldn't he be in even more trouble?

"Who set the fire?" Hun Chen looked down from mid-air, his cold voice emanating from his mouth.

His voice wasn't loud, but it seemed to have a magical power; the surroundings immediately quieted down, and everyone could hear him.

"It's me." Hun Cang raised his eyes slightly to look at him.

Hun Chen landed and asked, "Why did you set the fire? This constitutes intentional damage to clan property."

"These houses are filled with all kinds of garbage, and the stench is unbearable. How can the people living nearby stand it?" Hun Cang said.

"Really?" Hun Chen asked skeptically, turning to beckon several people living nearby. "Have you noticed any foul odors around the house?"

The man and the others shook their heads.

He waved for them to leave, then looked at Hun Cang again and said, "You saw it, they all said there was nothing there, and they are all neighbors next door to these houses, very close by."

"That's because someone set up a special barrier to prevent the smell from spreading," Hun Cang said.

"A restriction?" Hun Chen glanced around casually. "Where is it? I don't see it."

The flames released by those fire spirits were extremely powerful, and the materials used in the restriction were not precious, so they were all destroyed long ago.

Hun Cang narrowed his eyes slightly: "Whether it's true or false, wouldn't an investigation clarify things?"

He could sense the lingering restrictive power in the air, so there was no reason why the elder in front of him couldn't detect it.

"You're questioning me?" Hun Chen's expression darkened slightly as he coldly retorted, "Who's the elder here, you or me? You want to teach me how to do things, you little bastard?"

The last three words were spoken by Hun Chen as he leaned close to Hun Cang and whispered them.
