As these people drew closer, Xiao Feng took a small jade bottle from his clothes and placed it in front of them.
“I did not want to be your enemy, and I believe you are not willing to spend too much energy on me. I will use a pill to exchange for your departure.”
He poured out the pills in front of everyone and placed them in front of them, as if he wanted them to come up and take the pills that belonged to them.
These people frowned slightly when they saw that Xiao Feng actually had a pill in his hand, and they simply did not believe that he had such thoughts.
Soon, one of them pointed at the pill in his hand: "You didn't tamper with the pill, did you?"
Before he could respond, Huo Zongming sneered, "Once you eat it, your lives will be in his hands."
When the people present heard his voice, they froze on the spot, and no one dared to go up and take their pills.
Xiao Feng had anticipated that someone would cause trouble, so he casually grabbed one and put it in his mouth: "This pill can relieve your fatigue; it's a low-grade pill."
Because he ate one in front of everyone, some people from smaller sects mustered up their courage and came up to take one and put it in their mouths.
The others watched him take it directly, their faces filled with tension, as if they wanted to see if something would happen to him.
In just the time it takes for an incense stick to burn, the man opened his eyes again, his face filled with wild joy: "Your pills can actually restore energy?"
Xiao Feng shrugged helplessly: "I took one right in front of you, don't you still not believe me?"
Since one person had taken the pill, the others naturally believed that Xiao Feng had no intention of harming them, and they all went up to him to receive their own pills.
Before long, everyone was sitting cross-legged on the ground, letting the effects of the drug take hold in their bodies.
Huo Zongming looked at these people who had actually taken the pills, his face contorted with rage, and gritted his teeth: "What a bunch of pigs, they can even swallow this kind of pill."
Just then, a disciple of the Flame Sect approached Xiao Feng, seemingly wanting to take the pill from his hand.
Unfortunately, he and the Flame Sect had reached an irreconcilable point, so how could he possibly leave the elixir in their hands?
Xiao Feng sneered and pointed in Huo Zongming's direction: "If you need pills, I suggest you go to him. Only he can get pills from me."
Huo Zongming looked at Xiao Feng pointing at him, his face full of anger, and slapped the tree trunk hard: "Don't push your luck."
Just then, one by one, the people who had just refined the pills stood up and walked up to Xiao Feng with smiles on their faces.
Just a moment ago they were rivals, but now they are calling each other brothers and confiding in each other.
One of them approached Xiao Feng and pointed to the pond in front of him: "There is a Water Spirit Pearl in there. If you don't want it, brother, you'd better not leave it here."
Everyone nodded in agreement: "Yes, if the Water Spirit Orb is born later, we'll definitely fight it to the death. If we accidentally hurt a brother, it won't be good for anyone."
Seeing their earnest consideration for him, Xiao Feng laughed loudly: "I will think it over carefully."
He understood that these people called him brother only because he possessed elixirs.
Just then, a huge change occurred on the other side of the pond.
A whirlpool appeared out of nowhere in the middle of the pond, as if something was about to emerge from the bottom.
Seeing this, the other disciples from various sects returned to the pond, afraid that they were too slow.
Just then, Huo Zongming gave his disciple a wink and unintentionally walked to the pond.
At this moment, everyone's attention was focused on the pond, and they didn't notice that the disciples of the Flame Sect had arrived behind them.
Before they could react, the Flame Sect disciples had already made their move, slapping them hard across the face, severely injuring many and rendering them unable to fight.
Disciples from other sects noticed the injuries in their bodies, their faces turning terrifyingly grim. They glanced at Huo Zongming and said, "Isn't your Flame Sect a bit too domineering?"
"If the experts in our sect find out that you attacked us for the Water Spirit Orb, your Flame Sect will surely not survive."
Huo Zongming listened to their voices and sneered, "Of course I know, so... I never intended to let you leave here alive."
These words sparked considerable anger among disciples of many sects.
Although the Flame Sect has some strength, they are not yet in a position to dominate everything.
As soon as the disciples of a sect return to their sect, the sect's powerful members will inevitably take action.
Just then, Xiao Feng appeared in front of them with a faint smile on his face: "You all saw it, didn't you? His true colors have been revealed."
Huo Zongming had been urging these people to attack, precisely because he wanted to deplete their spiritual energy.
As long as their spiritual energy is greatly depleted, the Water Spirit Orb will naturally belong to the Flame Sect.
Hearing Xiao Feng's voice, everyone gritted their teeth: "Young friend Xiao Feng, we know we were wrong just now, what should we do now?"
Many of them now have injuries.
With such physical abilities, he is definitely no match for Huo Zongming, and might even be killed by Huo Zongming.
Since that was the case, Xiao Feng had no choice but to settle for second best. He glanced at the disciples of those sects and said, "All uninjured disciples, put aside your grudges and form a temporary alliance to kill them."
The disciples from these sects exchanged glances and then focused their attention on Huo Zongming, as if they wanted to kill him first.
Just then, the Water Spirit Orb floated in mid-air above the pond, emitting a faint white light.
Huo Zongming glanced greedily at the Water Spirit Orb, then stomped hard on the ground, sending himself flying like a cannonball, and finally grasped the Water Spirit Orb in his hand.
Seeing that Huo Zongming had already obtained the Water Spirit Orb, Xiao Feng said with a serious expression, "Stop him as soon as possible, otherwise we may be defeated one by one once he leaves."
Possessing the Water Spirit Orb grants access to powerful water-based spells, the nature of which remains a mystery to all.
Before long, the people from these sects surrounded the Flame Sect disciples, preventing them from escaping.
They originally thought that if they stopped the Flame Sect disciples, Huo Zongming would surely come back to rescue them.
However, they underestimated Huo Zongming's character.
He sneered at the disciples of these sects, "Since you want to kill them, then I won't keep you company."
As soon as he finished speaking, Huo Zongming rushed outside, as if he wanted to take the Water Spirit Orb with him and leave.
However, before he could take more than a few steps, Xiao Feng appeared out of nowhere in front of him, blocking his path.
