Humans, starting with chat groups, rampage across the heavens.

Chapter 83 Xiao Yan: This strange fire isn't hard to find, is it?

"This ruthless emperor truly deserves to be called the most talented empress in history."

Lu Chen smiled and gently ruffled the little girl's pigtails, pretending not to notice the change in her eyes.

"To rise from a mere mortal to become an empress, she truly deserves to be called the greatest talent throughout history."

"That Feathered Divine Dynasty deserves to die. They made them do some blood sacrifice, and now they've bitten off more than they can chew."

Ye Fan nodded in agreement and said with a relieved expression.

"Alright, now that we've heard the story, it's time to get down to business."

Lu Chen stood up and said.

Ye Fan and Weiwei also got up.

The three of them transformed into three streaks of rainbow light and disappeared from the inn.

Xiao Yan: "@Lu Chen, Brother Lu, my father-in-law has prepared the cultivation resources. When would you like to make the deal?"

Lu Chen: "We can do it now."

Lu Chen, who was in flight, noticed the activity in the chat group and immediately replied.

Xiao Yan: "OK, then I'll just pack it up and send it to you as a red envelope."

Xiao Yan sent Lu Chen a special red envelope.

Lu Chen sent Xiao Yan a special red envelope.

After sending the source stones to Xiao Yan, Lu Chen did not immediately accept the red envelope. This time, Gu Yuan gave a lot of cultivation resources, and Lu Chen's current storage bag might not be able to hold them all. It would be better to store them in the red envelope for the time being.

Xiao Yan accepted Lu Chen's red envelope.

Xiao Yan: "OK, it's all done. You guys didn't see how excited my father-in-law was after he got the Source Stone—"

—”

Xu Qi'an: "Not bad, Huo Huo, you're getting better and better at calling me father-in-law now."

Xiao Yan: "Absolutely! (smug emoji)"

Xiao Yan: "Before, I felt a little embarrassed because of the huge difference in status. Now I've figured it out. They're just ancient clans, nothing special. Our Xiao clan wasn't any worse than them before, and in fact, they owe us."

Xu Qi'an: "Okay, clear, no hair! You should have figured this out a long time ago."

Xu Qi'an: "Look at me! So what if I'm a princess? I still cling to her leg just the same way!"

Xiao Yan: "Really? Then you should try to get on the good side of a few more people. I think Fu Xiang from the brothel is pretty good too. She's a close attendant of the King of the Ten Thousand Demon Kingdom. If you just take her down, your relationship with the demon race will be established! *winks and smiles*"

Xu Qi'an:

Xu Qi'an: Forget it, I'm a pretty pure-hearted person, Princess Lin'an is enough for me.

Xiao Yan: "Pure love? You? Should I ask Brother Lu to spoil your later script? You, Xu Bai Piao, dare to say something like 'Nothing to do today, so I'll listen to music at the brothel'? You have the nerve to call yourself a pure love writer?"

Xu Qi'an: "Heh—that's just me in the script. The me now is very innocent and pure!"

Xu Qi'an: "Besides, what right do you, Xiao Huohuo, have to talk about me? I've heard from Brother Lu that you flirted with quite a few girls in the script."

Qi Lin: "Hey, hey, hey, don't you guys sleep at night?"

Xiao Yan: "Stop sleeping! Get up and party!"

Qi Lin: "Hehe, I have some good news for you. My third-generation divine body is about to be completed. Although I may not be able to beat the handsome Lu, I will be able to easily deal with you little brothers."

Xu Qi'an: "Tch! All your stuff comes from that dark dimension of your world. If you came to our world..."

"Jie, you're still just a little karami."

Qi Lin: "Damn it! (puffing up in anger.jpg)"

Xiao Yan: "So stop thinking about all this fancy stuff. You should just go to Lu Ge'er's world to borrow a seed and then cultivate the Heaven-Covering Technique. That's the real business."

Qi Lin: "Pah, you pervert! *blushing*"

Xiao Yan: "Uh, how am I a hooligan? I just asked you to borrow a Dao Seed, you wouldn't—tsk tsk! (winking emoji)"

Qi Lin: "I wasn't thinking anything. I'm not talking to you guys anymore, my teacher is calling me."

Xiao Yan: "————"

Xu Qi'an: "Miss Qi Lin, this feels like you're giving yourself away without being asked."

Xiao Yan: "So that's how it is. All these pretty ladies in the group can't escape Brother Lu's evil hand in the end? No~~.jpg."

Lu Chen: "???"

Lu Chen: "Huo Huo, are you getting cocky, or am I too weak to lift a knife?"

Xiao Yan: "Brother Lu, I was wrong! (Lightning-fast kneeling.jpg)"

Xiao Yan: "Brother Lu, everything's settled back home. My teacher thinks I should go out and gain some experience. Where do you think I should go?"

Lu Chen: "Oh dear, I've been a bit tired lately, and it seems like my memory is starting to decline."

Xiao Yan: "Brother Lu, I was wrong! I repent! I'm a bastard! I'm not human—"

Lu Chen: "Stop, stop, stop! Let's stop."

Lu Chen: "Go to Qingshan Town first. There, an NPC named Little Fairy Doctor is waiting for you to trigger a quest. She discovered a cave dwelling of someone from the past in the Monster Mountain Range and will invite you to explore it together. This cave dwelling contains some odds and ends that you might not care about now, but most importantly, it contains a fragment of a map that records the location of the 'Pure Lotus Demon Flame.'"

Xiao Yan: "The 'Purifying Lotus Demon Flame,' ranked third on the Strange Flame Ranking? Brother Lu, I love you to death!"

Lu Chen: "Hey~, Huo Huo, why are you starting to play weirdo? If you want to go gunfights, go find Xu Bai Piao."

Xu Qi'an: "No! I'm a real man! From today onwards, I'm cutting ties with Xiao Huohuo!"

Xiao Yan: "You used to call me 'Little Sweetie,' but now you're—"

Xu Qi'an: "Ugh—Brother Lu, can you kick this bitch out of the group?"

Lu Chen: "That's a good suggestion."

Xiao Yan: "I was wrong! Hands up in surrender.jpg"

Xiao Yan: "I won't cause any more trouble, Brother Lu, please continue."

Lu Chen: "Next, go to the Snake-Man Desert. There's an NPC named the Snake-Man Queen waiting for you to trigger a quest."

Lu Chen: "But before that, you'll pass through Stone Desert City. There's a real NPC there named Hai Bodong. I think he runs a map shop. He has the second map fragment that records the location of the 'Purifying Lotus Demon Flame.' You'll also trigger a quest there, and the reward is to acquire a Dou Huang-level fighter."

Xiao Yan: "How many fragments of this 'Purifying Lotus Demon Flame' are there in total? It's so easy to find them!"

Lu Chen: "There are four in total. The remaining two are in the Black Corner Region and the Central Continent. Both of these appear at the auction in the story. You'll have to find them yourself."

Xiao Yan: "I understand, but why would I go to the Snake-Man Desert? I don't even know this Snake-Man Queen."

Lu Chen: "The Serpent People's Great Desert hides the 'Azure Lotus Earth Core Flame.' After you refine it, you can go to the Black Corner Region. Your long-lost senior brother has already prepared the 'Sea Heart Flame' for you there."

Lu Chen: "Then, in Canaan Academy next to the Black Corner Domain, there is also the 'Fallen Heart Flame'."

Lu Chen: "After you finish consuming these strange flames, you can then consume your teacher's 'Bone Spirit Cold Flame.'"

Lu Chen: "Alright, that's all for now."

Xiao Yan: "Stunned.jpg"

Xiao Yan: "Isn't it said that different flames are extremely difficult to find? This doesn't seem that hard at all? I'm invincible.jpg"

Xiao Yan: "Brother Lu, I have wandered for half my life, never encountering a wise ruler. If you will not abandon me—"

Lu Chen: "Stop! I won't take in an adopted son!"

Xu Qi'an: "I'm so jealous! Brother Lu, you've arranged a whole-service package for Huo Huo, why don't you arrange one for me too?"

Xu Qi'an: "In the script, are there any shortcuts to quickly improve cultivation?"

Lu Chen: "Let me think... there really is one."

Xu Qi'an: "Really? Godfather, please tell me!"

Lu Chen: "But the methods in the script for quickly increasing your cultivation are basically all related to sleeping with women. Are you sure you want me to tell you?"

Xu Qi'an: "Uh—"

Xu Qi'an: "Forget it, I think cultivation still requires a down-to-earth approach. People like Huo Huo who try to take shortcuts will eventually suffer the consequences."

What a loss! (Seriously.jpg)

"

Xiao Yan: "Pfft—Xu Bai Piao, what else do you have to say? Still pretending to be innocent?"

Qi Lin: "Scumbag!"

Xu Qi'an: "Please stop slandering me! I've already said that wasn't me. I'm the Warrior of Pure Love, okay?!"

Xiao Yan: "Stop making your brother Yan laugh."

Xu Qi'an: "I'm so depressed.jpg"

Lu Chen: "By the way, where is the plot of your world now? @Xu Qi'an"

Xu Qi'an: "Speaking of which, Brother Lu, I happen to have something I want to ask you."

Xu Qi'an: "Today, the Emperor and his officials were holding an ancestral worship ceremony at Sangbo Lake when I heard something in the lake crying for help. I asked the other people around me, but they couldn't hear anything. Am I being haunted by something unclean again?"

Lu Chen: "More or less."

Lu Chen: "There's a hand sealed beneath Lake Sangbo, and this hand wants your help to break the seal."

Lu Chen: "But it will be soon. He should be able to break through the seal and come out in the next few days."

Xu Qi'an: "???"

Xiao Yan: "???"

Qi Lin: "???"

Xu Qi'an: "One hand?"

Lu Chen: "Didn't I already say that in your world's martial arts system, once you reach the third rank, you can regenerate severed limbs. The higher you go, the stronger your regenerative ability becomes. Although a first-rank martial artist can't regenerate from a drop of blood, they still won't die if their body is torn into eight pieces."

Xu Qi'an: "Is a first-grade martial artist really that outrageous? And what about a martial god? Wouldn't that be heaven-sent?"

Xiao Yan: "Speaking of which, according to the normal plot, someone who is dismembered and sealed like this must be an extremely evil demon, such as our mythological ancestor Chi You."

Xu Qi'an: "Brother Lu, what's the origin of this hand?"

Lu Chen: "His composition is a bit complicated. He is a fusion of the Asura King and the Buddha. He is a combination of Buddha and demon."

Xu Qi'an: "I understand. So, does this mean that once this hand is broken, it will endanger the common people, and I need to eliminate this hidden danger in advance?"

Lu Chen: "No! This hand is actually a training cheat device that the supervisor arranged for you."

Lu Chen: "Didn't you just ask if there was any way to speed up cultivation? This hand can help you level up quickly."

Xu Qi'an: "Huh? What's going on? How is this related to the old supervisor?"

Lu Chen: "This hand was originally sealed by the Supervisor. If the Supervisor hadn't agreed, no one could have rescued him from the bottom of Lake Sangbo."

Lu Chen: "The Supervisor has reached an agreement with the Demon Queen. He will allow the Demon Kingdom to release this hand, but it must be allowed to attach itself to you to help you improve your cultivation."

Xu Qi'an: "Oh, so this hand was originally my personal grandfather."

Xu Qi'an: "Xiao Huohuo, just you wait! Soon you'll have everything I have too, hehehehe!"

Xiao Yan: "—..."

Xiao Yan: "My mom won't let me talk to idiots."

Xu Qi'an: "Speaking of which—why would the Demon Queen bother with this? Isn't she a combination of Buddha and demon, and also related to the demon race?"

Lu Chen: "Of course! He is the current Queen of Ten Thousand Demons' biological father."

Xu Qi'an: "wtf?"

Xiao Yan: "Playing this trick?"

Qi Lin: "Surprised.jpg"

Lu Chen: "You don't need to know any of this for now. Just stay home and wait for this hand to come to you."

Xu Qi'an: "OK, my little hands, come on, I can't wait!"

Xiao Yan: "Uh, you're pretty freakish too."

Lu Chen: "Great, with you two perverts around, I'm practically a great and righteous saint."

Lu Chen: "Alright, enough bragging, I need to get down to business."

Xu Qi'an: "Brother Lu, farewell!"

Xiao Yan: "Welcome back next time!"

Qi Lin: "I'm leaving too. I feel like if we keep talking, you guys will drag my IQ down."

"Brother Chen, where are we going?"

Ye Fan had only recently broken through to the Life Spring Realm, so his flight speed was relatively slow, and Lu Chen and the others also did not fly too fast.

"We'll be there soon."

Lu Chen smiled slightly and pointed ahead.

Soon, all three of them landed.

"This...this is an ancient forbidden land?"

Looking at the familiar place before him, Ye Fan felt a sudden chill. He turned to Lu Chen and asked, "Brother Chen, the place you mentioned earlier where you needed my help, it wouldn't be into this desolate ancient forbidden land, would it?"

"That's right."

"You're lacking resources for your cultivation, right? There are plenty of ready-made resources here waiting for you to take."

Lu Chen nodded firmly.

"Forehead----"

Ye Fan swallowed hard, and hesitated before saying, "Um—that—Brother Chen, how about we look somewhere else?"

"What are you afraid of!"

Lu Chen patted Ye Fan's shoulder forcefully and said, "This desolate forbidden land is a death zone for others, but for you, Ye Fan, isn't it just your own backyard?"

"With that status, you can throw a tantrum and act recklessly inside without any problem."

"Besides, I've also provided you with an extra layer of protection."

Lu Chen glanced down at the little girl and continued, "Later, just carry the little girl inside. If any of the savages come looking for trouble, just shove the little girl in their faces and see if they dare to move an inch."
