A great adventure in the world of immortal cultivation

Xiao Huohuo:?

Han Buli: It feels so good. I haven't seen any of the Imperial Masters in the city. What a difference from the beginning. (Pinching nose)

Joan of Arc: Ah, maybe that stinky little brother absorbed all of Dice Lady's murderous intent.

Romeo: Captain Xiao, the sedan chair is ready!

Xiao Huohuo: Damn!

KP: It's difficult. Shortly after Xiao Huohuo was "kidnapped", you also received "reports" from enthusiastic people in the neighborhood. Most of them expressed their congratulations to you and looked at Jeanne with a strange, half-smile look, as if a layer of green grass had grown on your head.

Joan of Arc: ?????

Romeo: Music.

Han Buli: OK, now that we know the Imperial Master is in the palace, let's go to the Imperial Master's Mansion to explore the situation. Lao Xiao, please try to delay Zhao Wuji for as long as possible.

Xiao Huohuo: ...I'll try my best. (Pinching nose)

KP: Then, I will continue with Xiao Huohuo's story first.

……

KP: The perspective switches, and Xiao Huohuo, sitting in a wooden sedan that looks like a cage, is carried out of the old city in a swaying manner, passing through the small trading square, the underground river arch bridge, the central market, the main urban area, and finally arriving at the gate of the imperial city.

KP: Compared to five years ago, the Imperial City remains as magnificent, even more solemn. After reviewing the Imperial Master's instructions, the soldiers at the gate respectfully let you into the palace. You walked along the marble corridors for a while before arriving at the entrance to a side hall located to the left and rear of the central hall.

Han Buli: Side hall?

Joan of Arc: Danger, stinky brother, danger!

Guard: We are here. Please come into the hall, Miss Medical Fairy. The Imperial Master is waiting for you inside.

KP: The sedan chair landed, and the guards' voices rang out. Xiao Huohuo, you took a deep breath, stepped out of the sedan chair, and looked ahead at the gloomy side hall that seemed to be like a dark cloud, your eyes solemn.

KP: Then, a voice rang out from the hall. That familiar voice made you feel as if you were back in the central hall, and you couldn't help but shudder.

Zhao Wuji: Since you are here, please come in.

Xiao Huohuo: ...

Han Buli: Lao Xiao, will you win? (Pinching nose)

Xiao Huohuo: It's come to this! ...I released my spiritual pressure and approached the hall. I'm not pretending anymore. I'm laying it on the table!

KP: (Appreciation) Yiwu, then facing that familiar terrifying pressure, Xiao Huohuo, you also released all the spiritual pressure of the sixth level of Qi Refining. A light exclamation was suddenly heard in the hall, and then the spiritual sense swept across. Obviously, they did not expect that you would reveal your identity so frankly.

Xiao Huohuo: A gentleman is open and honest!

Romeo: The villain is hiding Gigi.

KP: Then, Xiao Huohuo, you strode into the palace gate. Zhao Wuji, dressed in black, was standing in the palace with his hands behind his back. There was a hint of surprise in his eyes as he looked at you.

Zhao Wuji: Humph, if it weren’t for your unpresentable appearance, I would have praised you for your courage.

Xiao Huohuo: ...

KP: At this moment, a scream suddenly sounded, and Xiao Huohuo realized that in addition to the National Master Zhao Wuji, there was another person in the side hall!

Xiao Huohuo: Who?

KP: Sand.

Xiao Huohuo:???

Joan of Arc: ??? Damn you KP, what do you want to do!

Han Buli: Lao Luo, come on!

Romeo: Woof woof woof! I'll bite you to death!

KP: (pinching nose) I didn’t expect to see Sha in this side hall. Xiao Huohuo, your heart skipped a beat. You looked at her and saw surprise and doubt in each other’s eyes.

Sand: You?! ... Ugh...

Xiao Huohuo: KP, what the hell is going on? (annoyed)

Zhao Wuji: The princess has been ill these past few days, feeling depressed and unable to eat or drink. It seems she's contracted some intractable illness, and Your Majesty and I are deeply worried. Coincidentally, I heard that a miraculous healer has recently appeared in the Old City, so I thought of summoning him to the palace to see if he could treat the princess... Unexpectedly, I received a surprising reward.

Xiao Huohuo: Damn! This thing can also boomerang?!

Joan of Arc: Byd, the old man is fishing! You, a Foundation Establisher, can't cure mortals' illnesses! (Pointing)

Han Buli: Indeed, this wave of Lao Xiao was really fooled. It was evaluated as a major failure.

KP: After saying that, Zhao Wuji turned and looked at Sha again.

Zhao Wuji: Princess, judging from your reaction, do you know this person?

KP: Although it was just a question, Zhao Wuji's tone was full of certainty. And facing Zhao Wuji's question, Sha also avoided his gaze in a panic.

Sha: I...I don’t know him.

Zhao Wuji: I don’t know him, haha, that’s good.

KP: After a meaningful sneer, Zhao Wuji turned his head to look at Xiao Huohuo. The next moment, Xiao Huohuo felt his vision shaking violently and his ears roaring. Under the terrifying spiritual pressure of a foundation-building cultivator, every muscle and bone was wailing in overload, and he almost couldn't control himself and fell to his knees!

KP: Xiao Huohuo has a will.

Xiao Huohuo: Willpower, 8/65, extremely difficult to succeed.

KP: However, even though you were under tremendous pressure and all the air in your chest was squeezed out, Xiao Huohuo, you still gritted your teeth and persevered, holding your knees tightly with both hands to support your body and prevent yourself from kneeling.

Zhao Wuji: Oh?

Sand: Stop it... He will die!

Zhao Wuji: Humph, Princess, don't be fooled by his harmless appearance. He is one of the foreign demons that invaded Tianmu five years ago. If he remains alive, Tianmu will be in danger! Don't be too soft-hearted!

KP: After saying that, Zhao Wuji used his spiritual power to drive a black flying sword out of his Qiankun bag and then hung in front of Sha's eyes.

Zhao Wuji: Alright, now I've subdued this foreign demon, and he can't move. Princess, for the sake of the people of Tianmu City, kill him!

sand:!

Xiao Huohuo: Okay, okay, this is Byd’s plan, right?

Joan of Arc: Born! It's fine if he wants to kill his stinky brother, but he actually wants to stain the hands of the pure little Sha with blood. This Zhao Wuji is really a scumbag! (annoyed)

Xiao Huohuo:?

Han Buli: Indeed, why don’t you find a chance to wipe your neck yourself, Lao Xiao, to avoid dirtying Sha’s hands.

Xiao Huohuo: Wait a minute, we're teammates, right? Why don't you try to save me, but instead you're trying to persuade me to sacrifice myself? (Half annoyed)

Romeo: Well, you can’t die in the dungeon anyway. And even if you die, Lao Xiao, you can still get a new card. But if Xiao Sha dies, then I’ll really be left with nothing.

Joan of Arc: That’s right.

Han Buli: That’s right.

Xiao Huohuo: Byd, why don’t you look alike?

KP: Looking at the black flying sword floating in front of him, Sha showed a look of horror and retreated repeatedly, but the flying sword was like a leech attached to his bones, following him like a shadow, and finally even fell into Sha's hands automatically.

Han Buli: The salt doesn't even have salt in it. (Pinching nose)

Sha: No...I don't want it!

Zhao Wuji: You have no choice.

KP: After saying that, Zhao Wuji raised his finger slightly, and the black flying sword was guided, dragging the sand and slowly approaching Xiao Huohuo.

Zhao Wuji: (sneers) If you do something wrong, you must be punished. Even you, the princess, are no exception.

Jeanne: So this Byd guessed that Sha was secretly helping us... and now he's taking revenge on us, right?

Han Buli: (Pinching his nose) Alas, a dignified Foundation Establishment cultivator is actually fussing over a little girl. Today I've seen someone with a heart even smaller than KP.

KP:?

Sha:Let me go! Let me go!

KP: Dragged forward by the black flying sword, Sha struggled desperately, his legs pushing against the ground, but this only deepened the two drag marks. A mortal's struggles were too powerless in front of the cultivator.

Xiao Huohuo: Forget it, it’s okay, Sha, just stab me directly.

Sandy: But...!

Xiao Huohuo: "I'm not from Tianmu City. Even if I die, I'll just return to my own world." Master Zhao, standing over there, is well aware of this, which is why he didn't kill me the moment we met like he did last time. So, he's just trying to scare you and use you as a threat.

Zhao Wuji: ...

KP: After hearing Xiao Huohuo's words, Sha Wei was stunned for a moment, then closed her eyes and stopped resisting. As expected, the black flying sword finally stopped half an inch in front of Xiao Huohuo's throat.

Han Buli: It’s exciting, Lao Xiao.

Xiao Huohuo: (I want to turn on the sarcasm mode) Haha, Zhao Wuji, Zhao Wuji, you are hundreds of years old, but you still bully a sick 15-year-old girl. I think you are really going backwards as you practice!

Zhao Wuji: ...

KP: (Dark Dice)

KP: Zhao Wuji didn't reply, but the look he gave you became more and more hostile.

Xiao Huohuo: (I continue to provoke him) Well, it's understandable. Our Master Zhao is a dignified Foundation Establishment cultivator, but he's stuck in this tiny place, acting like a local tyrant. Over time, he's bound to be tainted by the mundane worldly corruption. But I still advise Old Zhao to get out more often when you have time. Otherwise, your skills will become rusty, and when you reach the Core Formation stage and face the tribulation, you'll probably suffer a lot.

Joan of Arc: I’m dancing in a minefield.

Romeo: Zhao Wuji: It hurts, it hurts so much!

KP: It really hurts.

Zhao Wuji: ...Looking for death!

KP: The next moment, Xiao Huohuo, you felt a flash before your eyes, and Zhao Wuji's figure instantly filled your entire field of vision. Then, a tremendous force crushed your head, shattering the palace door and landing in the courtyard outside. Zhao Wuji grasped your head with one hand and lifted you off the ground, slowly applying force with his fingers, deliberately making you listen to the terrifying sound of your skull being crushed and deformed.

Xiao Huohuo: Sigh... Can we reconcile?

Zhao Wuji: Humph, it's too late to beg for mercy now! If you want to repent, wait until I finish casting the soul-searching spell... Of course, the premise is that you haven't become a useless person with a shattered soul by then.

Xiao Huohuo: If I really become a disabled person, don't regret it.

Zhao Wuji: Regret? Ha! I, Zhao Wuji, have never regretted anything in my life!

Xiao Huohuo: What if I say I am an alchemist?

Zhao Wuji:……?

Chapter 165: Mine Clearance Expert (Shizhishaqi Shisan)

Zhao Wuji: Alchemist...?

KP: I didn’t expect that Xiao Huohuo could come up with such a “last words” before he “died”. The corner of Zhao Wuji’s eyes twitched slightly.

Joan of Arc: I, Zhao Wuji, have never regretted anything I have done in my life.jpg.

Han Buli: Then coming back to the point.jpg.

Romeo:It smells so good.jpg.

KP: That's almost enough.

Xiao Huohuo: Happy.

Zhao Wuji: Humph, you are only at the sixth level of Qi Refining, yet you dare to call yourself an alchemist... I think you are panicking and speaking without thinking in order to save your own life.

Xiao Huohuo: Haha, Master Zhao, you're worrying too much. How could I dare to speak so carelessly about something that's easy to verify? How could a mere cultivator at the sixth level of Qi Refining be able to deceive Master Zhao, who has such broad vision and is a master of foundation building?

Zhao Wuji: ...Humph.

Han Buli: (pinching nose) Lao Xiao, you are so good at licking.

Xiao Huohuo: (pinches nose) Shut up.

KP: Then, after thinking for a moment, Zhao Wuji snorted coldly and loosened his right hand. Xiao Huohuo, you returned to the embrace of gravity again, staggered and fell to the ground, and you were lucky to save your life.

Zhao Wuji: I don't think you have the guts... Then let me see how good you are at refining medicine.

KP: After saying this, Zhao Wuji turned to look at the guards waiting in the courtyard. They were frightened by the door shards scattered all over the floor and the tense atmosphere. Seeing Zhao Wuji's somewhat hostile look, they finally reacted and hurriedly stood at attention.

Xiao Huohuo: Guards, stand at attention!
