Xiao Feng sensed that Huo Zongming's flaming whip was getting closer and closer, so he unleashed his spiritual power and forcefully shook the flaming whip away.
He led the group and Su Mingren out of the forest, complaining, "It's not refresh time yet? The power of second-tier cultivators isn't enough."
He clearly remembered that when he was a seventh-level cultivator, he could shatter the flaming whip that Huo Zongming had thrown with a single strike, leaving him no chance to throw it a second time.
At this moment, Huo Zongming looked at Xiao Feng leading Su Naruto and the others out, his face full of cold light: "You've been hiding in the shadows, do you intend to make a move in secret?"
Upon hearing this, many people around turned their attention to Xiao Feng, clearly regarding him as their enemy.
Xiao Feng understood that Huo Zongming wanted him to become the target of everyone's attacks, so that he could take him down effortlessly.
However, he is not so easy to deal with.
Xiao Feng glanced at the people present and said, "Don't let him lure you in. Being used as a pawn is not a good thing."
Before Huo Zongming could react, Xiao Feng walked up to the group and gestured with his chin, asking, "What's here? Can you tell me?"
When they saw Xiao Feng focusing his gaze on them, they quickly looked away, and surprisingly, no one was willing to respond.
Nobody wants to have an extra competitor for no reason, especially when that competitor seems quite strong.
Those around Xiao Feng, seeing him use this method to question the people present, approached speechlessly: "We definitely won't get any answers using this method."
Listening to the sounds around him, Su Mingren couldn't help but sneer: "You think his method won't work? Then do you have a better idea?"
In his view, he was willing to do anything that was bad for the surroundings.
Seeing that Su Mingren wanted to take action himself, he sneered, "Of course I have a way. You guys wait here for me, I'll go ask him."
Xiao Feng, blindly confident in his surroundings, nodded slightly: "Then I'll trouble you."
To prevent Su Mingren from causing trouble, Xiao Feng glanced in Su Mingren's direction and said, "You don't need to follow him. Come back with me."
When Su Mingren heard that he didn't want him to follow behind, he frowned slightly: "I'm afraid he doesn't know his place and might cause us trouble."
At this point, he rolled up his sleeves, revealing all the wounds on his arms.
Xiao Feng didn't take Su Mingren's injuries seriously at all, and waved his hand: "The fact that you have injuries only means that you are not as skilled as others, it doesn't mean anything else."
As for the conflict between the two of them, he was unwilling to find out at all.
Just then, someone walked back from a distance, a smile on their face: "I've found out everything."
When Su Mingren saw that the matter had been figured out in just the time it takes for an incense stick to burn, he said with a mocking expression, "Don't make up information, or we'll come after you."
Ignoring him completely, he walked up to Xiao Feng and whispered in his ear, "There is a Water Spirit Pearl in the middle of the pool. It is said that it will be born soon."
Having already witnessed the power of the Fire Spirit Orb, the two of them naturally knew that the power of the Water Spirit Orb would not be weak either.
In an instant, Xiao Feng turned his gaze to Huo Zongming and sneered, "No wonder they're here too. So this is the root of the problem."
Without truly rare and precious materials, there's simply no way to attract these people's attention.
Those around him nodded in agreement upon hearing Xiao Feng's words: "It is said that obtaining the Water Spirit Orb allows one to directly use some water-based spells, making it a top-tier natural treasure."
Most of the people who stay here are those who want to defy fate.
Now that the information had been returned from the surrounding area, Xiao Feng glanced at the people present and found that they all had their eyes on him.
Judging from their expressions, they clearly consider him an opponent.
Xiao Feng walked up to them and chuckled, "I have absolutely no interest in the Water Spirit Pearl that you see, so don't even think about getting your hands on me."
To avoid contradicting his words, he turned and glanced around at Su Mingren: "Let's go, the rare and precious materials here are not for me."
The people around him came to Xiao Feng's side with surprised expressions, not understanding why he didn't need the Water Spirit Orb.
"Dude, are you out of your mind? This is a rare treasure, the Water Spirit Pearl! You don't even want it?"
Listening to the sounds around him, Xiao Feng took a deep breath and shook his head: "How could I not want the Water Spirit Orb? We can't become their common target."
Huo Zongming's actions just now were to put himself at the forefront, making everyone see him as an opponent.
If those sects were to turn against him, Xiao Feng could become the scapegoat, and the one who would truly gain the benefits would not be him.
After Xiao Feng's explanation, everyone around understood and slapped their foreheads, saying, "So that's how it is! You're so insightful!"
Xiao Feng waved his hand repeatedly: "Enough talk, let's leave here first and not attract their attention, otherwise we'll definitely be in trouble."
He originally thought that his departure wouldn't attract the attention of these people, since all three of them were quite powerful.
However, he did not expect that the Flame Sect members had already seen through Xiao Feng's scheme and surrounded him with a cold smile.
Huo Zongming walked up to Xiao Feng and sneered, "You want to sit on the sidelines and watch the tigers fight, waiting for us to be exhausted so you can take your share?"
With just a few words, many people's eyes were drawn to them, as if they wanted to see if Xiao Feng had such thoughts.
Xiao Feng naturally couldn't accept Huo Zongming's words, and snorted coldly: "If you want to find fault, you can always find a reason. If you think we have designs on the Water Spirit Pearl, how can I refute that?"
Now, the Flame Cult members have surrounded them, and they must kill these Flame Cult members to escape.
Just then, Zhou Xian stepped forward and stood beside Xiao Feng, asking, "Dude, what do we do?"
Xiao Feng looked around and saw that everyone was staring at him. He frowned slightly and said, "Let's see if they will make a move."
In his eyes, they were outnumbered, and Su Mingren was very likely the one who betrayed them.
If they don't seize the initiative, they are very likely to be killed by these people.
Seeing that Xiao Feng hadn't made a move yet, Huo Zongming pointed to the disciples behind him and said, "If you see them making any move, then kill them."
Upon hearing Huo Zongming's plan to trap them here, Xiao Feng exchanged glances with those around him and nodded slightly.
In an instant, everyone around understood what was happening. With a wave of his hand, a mutated chicken appeared out of thin air in front of them.
