Junlin harbored ill intentions, but wore a gentle smile as he reached out and patted the little fox's fluffy head.

However, this time he did not force the refinement.

After all, this little fox's cultivation level is not low, so we must find the right opportunity to capture it directly, otherwise this little thing will run away very fast.

The little fox wasn't too happy about Junlin patting its head.

But as the saying goes, courtesy should be reciprocated, so the little fox flew to Junlin and reached out its little paw to pat Junlin's head.

Junlin: "..."

After a moment of silence, and not wanting to be taken advantage of, Junlin reached out again and rubbed the little fox's head, this time with a bit more pressure.

The little fox tilted its head, somewhat puzzled. Did outsiders need to touch it so many times to express friendliness?

Adhering to the principle of reciprocity.

The little fox reached out its tiny paw and patted Junlin's head again.

Then Junlin rubbed the little fox's head again.

The little fox returned the favor by patting Junlin's head with its tiny paw.

King's Landing again...

Errou blinked as she watched Junlin and the little fox patting each other's heads. She found it amusing and felt an urge to join in.

Only Er Yan sighed and rubbed his forehead in exasperation.

Soon, Junlin and the little fox became rough in their actions.

The little fox's originally soft fur was now a mess after Junlin ruffled it, and Junlin's hair was also ruffled into a bird's nest.

Er Yan couldn't stand it any longer, so he separated the human and the fox.

Under the absolute suppression of power, the little fox was held in Er Yan's hands and had no ability to resist.

This heartwarming scene made the middle-aged man, who was trembling in the corner, feel that he had found an opportunity.

He planned to secretly activate the Ice Crystal Palace and escape.

Although we may not be able to escape, what if we do?

But the moment he made a move, and a surge of spiritual energy emanated from his body, a golden longsword was already at his neck.

The middle-aged man immediately withdrew his spiritual power, and the trembling ice crystal palace returned to calm once more.

Jun Lin grinned and walked up to the middle-aged man, saying, "Heh! Old Bi Deng, you dare to make trouble right under my nose? You really don't know what's good for you. Did you also cause this palace to hide from me?"

The middle-aged man glanced coldly at Jun Lin, and sneered inwardly, "What kind of strength does he have to question me?"

But when he caught a glimpse of E Yan behind Jun Lin out of the corner of his eye, he immediately snapped back to reality, a hint of fear flashing in his eyes.

Upon realizing this, Junlin turned and glanced at Eryan.

"Oh? You're afraid of my wife?"

Jun Lin raised an eyebrow, then understood. "Oh right, you're a martial arts immortal. Aren't you one of the many martial arts immortals my wife killed, and then somehow managed to survive in this secret realm until now?"

Upon hearing this, the middle-aged man's eyes widened in shock.

However, what surprised him was not that Junlin knew his identity, but that Junlin actually called Eryan his wife.

Looking at Er Yan again, he didn't refute it!

Could it really be true?!

The middle-aged man immediately seized Jun Lin. "Flame Demon, I am now just a remnant soul. I only want to find someone qualified to inherit my legacy. Spare my life, or I will kill him!"

Junlin: ? ? ?

No, if you still have the energy, why are you trembling here? I thought you were on your last legs and not far from death!

Junlin couldn't help but complain inwardly, but he wasn't worried about his own safety at all.

He didn't expose himself, not out of respect for old Bi Deng, but simply because he felt sorry for the treasures in the Ice Crystal Palace.

Moreover, he has a wife named E Yan and a sister-in-law named E Rou. With two ancient demons here, who would dare to kill him, and who could kill him!

As expected.

The moment the middle-aged man finished speaking, Er Yan's face darkened. "Martial arts immortals? Ha, I thought you were all dead, but I didn't expect there were still some clinging to life!"

Having said that, E Yan made no attempt to conceal his cultivation level—Nine Revolutions Supreme!

At that moment, the terrifying aura made the little fox held in Er Yan's hand tremble with fear.

Upon seeing this, the middle-aged man looked even more horrified and repeatedly said, "You can't kill me, or I'll kill him!"

Upon hearing this, Junlin, who was being held hostage, was speechless.

Are these villains just going to use verbal threats all day long, holding hostages? What's the use of just talking without taking action?

Thinking this, she said to the middle-aged man, "What's the use of just talking without doing anything? Why don't you just kill me and make her regret it for the rest of her life? Wouldn't that be better?"

The middle-aged man's eye twitched. "Is Junlin's suggestion alright?"

That would be great!

But the problem is, he wants to live!

And don't you know your place? You're a hostage, instigating others to kill you. Is that something you should be doing?

"Only I can kill my people!"

Er Yan casually tossed the little fox to Er Rou, who was watching the show from the side, and then mobilized all his spiritual power to throw a punch.

The middle-aged man's eyes reflected the raging sea of ​​fire. He smiled bitterly, knowing his life was coming to an end.

Even though his body and soul were destroyed, and his life was extinguished, he still couldn't understand why E Yan would disregard Jun Lin's life or death.

As the flames subsided, a hole appeared in the enormous ice crystal palace.

Wherever the flames reached, everything perished.

Once a martial arts immortal, now merely a remnant soul, how could he possibly survive a full-force attack from the Calamity Flame?

The little fox, whose head was being rubbed by Errou, was now even more terrified. How could her perfectly good Daoist partner be killed so easily?

That's it!

My life is almost over!

Just when the little fox felt that her future was bleak, Junlin suddenly appeared unharmed.

Little fox: ?

Junlin raised an eyebrow, and together with Errou, ruffled the little fox's head, saying with a smile, "What? Are you surprised to see that I'm not dead?"

The little fox nodded. "How are you still alive? I saw her beat you to death with my own eyes."

Jun Lin explained in a serious tone, "What do you know? In our Tianxuan Continent, Daoist couples cannot harm each other."

Upon hearing this, the little fox's eyes widened immediately.

So fake!

But if not for this reason, why is King's Landing still alive?

Just as the little fox was wondering, Er Yan grabbed it and asked, "Are there any other martial arts immortals in this secret realm?"

The appearance of the remnant soul of the martial arts immortal was quite unexpected for her. After completely destroying that remnant soul, she felt even more exhilarated!

The little fox shook its head repeatedly and said, "No, no, that person only survived until now because of my help; otherwise, they would have disappeared long ago."

As they were talking, the little fox suddenly remembered something.

He hurriedly said, "That's not right! If you kill him, what about me? He promised to help me escape this world after he finds the successor!"

Junlin raised an eyebrow. "Leave this world? It's simple. You just need to sacrifice yourself."
