C1457 Flame Crimson Earth
Xue Qianqiu left. Ye Xu looked at his back as he left. There was a kind of hot blood that belonged solely to young people hidden in his determination. His departure would certainly cause a huge commotion in the Southern Land.
"Ha... It's good to be young!"
Ye Xu stretched and muttered, then he laughed.
"Hehe, if you say others are young, it seems like you are old! Hahaha... "
With a long roar, Ye Xu turned into a ray of light and flew towards the south.
Blaze City, a city of flames located at the southernmost tip of the Southern Land.
The temperature within a hundred thousand miles was extremely high. Most of the plants and demon beasts were unable to survive here.
However, those who could survive must be very powerful plants and demon beasts.
It was said that in the ancient era, the Blaze City wasn't the same as it was now. However, one day, when the Heavenly Fire descended, a huge Fire Mountain rose from the ground.
The Fire Mountain was burning all year round, and the temperature was extremely high. Even those who practiced fire-type cultivation techniques wouldn't be able to get close to it easily.
But even so, the Fire Mountain still attracted a lot of warriors to come and search for treasures.
Why?
That was because the flames on the Fire Mountain were very powerful. They burned all year round, causing the Fire Mountain to be filled with top grade iron mines.
This kind of iron ore... This kind of ore was extremely resistant to heat, and it was extremely hard. It was one of the best materials to forge weapons. Weapons of the same quality, forged from red iron ore... All of them were twice as good as weapons forged from ordinary ores.
Moreover, because the red iron ore contained a trace of the power of fire, the weapons forged by the red iron ore were naturally of the fire attribute. When Lieyan brandished them, they would shoot out extremely powerful arrows.
Moreover, there were many top grade fire-attribute spirit medicines growing in the Fire Mountain. These spirit herbs had absorbed the essence of the fire energy, and the fruit had even begun to crystallize. The medicinal strength was astonishing. It was the best herb for warriors who practiced fire-attribute cultivation techniques.
With spirit medicines and ores, then no matter how dangerous a place was, there would still be people who stepped foot in.
Blaze City was born due to luck.
A group of martial artists who came to Taobao spontaneously built such a city.
Because the Fire Mountain had high temperatures all year round, it was impossible to stay in the wild. Just the temperature of the ground was enough to roast a person to death, let alone sleep while lying down.
Even in the Blaze City, the beds were hanging in the air. As long as they did not touch the ground, the temperature was still acceptable.
Ye Xu kept heading south. The scenery on the ground kept falling back. Very soon, Qingshan's green water became scarce, and it was replaced by red.
"Hmm? We're here!"
Ye Xu retracted the energy in his body and fell to the ground. When he was about to hit the ground, he waved his sleeve and landed firmly on the ground.
Suddenly, a surge of blazing Qi drilled into his meridians from the soles of his shoes.
"What a scorching Qi! It's just like what the rumors say!"
"This place is unbearably hot. It's the same even in the outer region. It's imaginable that when one is really close to the Fire Mountain, there is no place for any warriors below the Earth Stage to stand!"
"Fire Mountain... there should be a Fire Extreme Power..."
Thinking of this, Ye Xu's feet left the ground and slowly drifted forward.
Before he walked far, he heard a cry of surprise from afar.
"Help... Help... Someone help me..."
A shrill cry resounded in the void. Ye Xu's eyes moved slightly, then he turned around and headed towards the place where the cry for help was coming from.
Not long after that, he saw a young girl curled up under a huge rock. She was looking at her surroundings with a frightened expression.
In front of her, three ferocious-looking men were forcing their way towards the girl with ferocious smiles on their faces.
"Little girl, don't resist. No one will bother you even if you scream until your throat is broken!"
"Hehe, we won't kill you either. All we need to do is make you happy!"
"Hehe, that's right. Don't resist. We are people who have tender feelings for the fairer sex!"
Amidst the sinister laughter, the young woman became even more frightened. She looked around and saw Ye Xu's figure in an instant. Taking advantage of the fact that the three burly men weren't paying attention, he rushed out. He ran to Ye Xu's back while gasping for breath and cried out in a trembling voice, "Young master, save me! These people are trying to tarnish my reputation!"
The three burly men were caught off guard by the young lady's escape. Immediately, they rushed over aggressively and surrounded Ye Xu in the middle.
"Kid, don't block the way! Otherwise, I'll kill you too!"
"Get lost, don't be blind!"
"Otherwise, my saber won't grow eyes!"
Ye Xu narrowed his eyes and looked at the three burly men in front of him. He tightened his sleeves and turned his head to look. Coincidentally, he saw the pitiful eyes of the young woman.
What kind of gentle, cute, and pure pair of eyes was that? Ye Xu was stunned when he saw them.
The young woman said softly, "Young Master, you must save me. If you don't save me, I will be sullied by these three beasts!"
As she spoke, the young woman's eyes dripped with sparkling tears. Her clear and lovable appearance was indescribably lovable.
Ye Xu instantly had a feeling of hugging this woman and loving her.
"Young Master, you must save me. As long as you save me, no matter what you do... I can..."
The young woman's face was flushed red, and her voice became lower and lower as she spoke, and her head also lowered.
Ye Xu's eyes instantly became dazed.
At this moment, when he lowered his head, the young girl's eyes suddenly flashed with a fierce light. She slowly stretched out her right hand, and her dark red nails had become unusually sharp, just like a sharp dagger.
The three burly men looked at each other and revealed a strange smile. They slowly walked towards Ye Xu, and slowly raised the steel knife in their hands, aiming it at Ye Xu's head.
The young woman raised her head again, and the fierce light in her eyes disappeared in an instant. The temptation in her red lips was indescribable, and her chest rose and fell, causing people to fantasize endlessly.
On the other hand, Ye Xu stood rooted to the ground as if he had lost his soul.
"Hehe, idiot..."
When the young girl saw Ye Xu being controlled by her, a trace of disdain appeared on her face. She slowly raised her right hand, aimed at Ye Xu's throat, and thrust it forward.
However, when she was halfway through the stab, the young girl felt her wrist tighten. She was grabbed by a powerful hand, and at the same time, a mocking voice sounded in her ears.
"Looks like you don't need me to save you!"
Their eyes met. There was no trace of confusion in Ye Xu's eyes. His eyes were like the ocean, causing the young lady's expression to change drastically.
"You... How could you..."
"The Soul Capturing Technique is indeed not bad. You are the descendant of the Ancient Flower Sect, right?"2
Ye Xu said with a smile.
The young girl's facial expression changed drastically. She suddenly broke free from Ye Xu's control and quickly retreated. Her Qi had undergone a tremendous change.
