"Are you leaving?" Gu Yuan looked at Chi Yuer and asked.
Chi Yu'er opened his mouth, lowered his head and asked, "How do you know?"
"Haha, I guessed it." Gu Yuan said with a smile.
"I had originally planned to protect Senior Hammer Emperor and then leave, but I didn't expect this to happen. Now I'm no longer needed to protect him, but I won't be returning to the Central Region for the time being."
"Ah? Not going to the Central Region? Then... are you still going to stay here?" Gu Yuan asked.
Chi Yu'er shook her head and said, "Not really. I still have some things to do. My next plan is to go to the Fengyun Empire. I might stay there for a year or two."
"Fengyun Empire? What are you doing there?"
The Fengyun Empire is a neighboring country of the Shuihan Empire. Its territory is larger than that of the Shuihan Empire, and its strength is much higher. If it were not for the Black Demon Mountains separating them, the Shuihan Empire would have been swallowed up by the Fengyun Empire long ago.
"There are some things to deal with over there, so it will take a long time." Chi Yuer replied.
"So...when are you planning on leaving?"
"Let's wait for Xiao Ba to recover. During this period, I think we still have something to do!" Chi Yuer said with a serious expression.
"Are you talking about the reason why the Domain Demon Emperor appeared here?"
Gu Yuan was very smart and guessed what Chi Yuer was referring to at once.
"That's right! It's a bit surprising that three Domain Demon Emperors appeared here. They must have done something in secret, otherwise, how could three Domain Demons at the Demon Emperor level appear here at once? Moreover, in the past few days, I went to Huoyun Sect again, explored it carefully, and discovered some things." Chi Yuer said.
Gu Yuan asked: "Oh? What did you find?"
"There's something unusual and strange about the underground of the Fire Cloud Sect. I think the energy fluctuations down there seem a bit strange, appearing and disappearing at times, so I'm going to explore it further."
"Then let's go together. I don't think there should be another Domain Demon Emperor there, right?" Gu Yuan said with a wry smile.
"It's impossible. It's very rare for the three Domain Demon Emperors to appear together here. What I'm more concerned about now is why they would appear together in this remote place, and why the energy underground in the Fire Cloud Sect is so weird. Even I, a Spirit Emperor, can't figure it out. It seems that there must be a big secret hidden underground in the Fire Cloud Sect." Chi Yuer said.
"Well! Secret? I wonder what secrets there are underground in Huoyun Sect. Why don't we go and check it out now? We are free anyway, so why not go and take a look now." Gu Yuan said excitedly.
Chi Yu'er hesitated for a moment, then nodded and said, "It's not impossible, but Brother Gu Yuan, you have to listen to me and do as I say, and don't stay within one meter of me, otherwise I'm afraid if something unexpected happens, I won't be able to protect you in time!"
"Okay! I will!" said Gu Yuan.
"Then let's go!"
Chi Yuer stretched out her hand to split open a space channel, then pulled Gu Yuan in.
At this time, the Huoyun Sect was in a mess. The previous bustling crowd had long disappeared, and the entire Huoyun Sect fell into silence.
Walking in the Huoyun Sect, Gu Yuan couldn't help but frown, "Such a rich blood energy!"
"The disciples of Huoyun Sect suffered a terrible loss that day. That Demon Emperor Kas was so cruel that he actually used those humans who were implanted with demon seeds to sacrifice for him!" Chi Yuer said hatefully, gritting his teeth.
"I saw your battle that day from the dark. It was like the end of the world. I still feel a little scared when I think about it now."
Gu Yuan avoided the bloodstains on the ground and spoke as he walked.
"Haha, Brother Gu Yuan, I have to say, you are really brave. You even dare to peek at the battle between the Spirit Emperors. I think except you, no one else would dare to do such a thing." Chi Yuer teased.
"Haha, it was because I was afraid that something might happen to you. Facts have proved that if I hadn't been there after you fought with the Demon Emperor, how could I have saved you?" Gu Yuan said with a smile.
"Yes, yes, what Brother Gu Yuan said is right." Chi Yuer replied.
"Alas, the Huoyun Sect was once the dominant force in this area, but now there is not a single person left!" Gu Yuan sighed.
"That's not necessarily true!"
Chi Yu'er shook her head, then pointed in a certain direction and said softly, "How long do you plan to hide in there? Do you need me to pull you out?"
Gu Yuan frowned and immediately took a defensive stance, "Is there someone hiding there?"
"Brother Gu Yuan, don't be nervous. He's just a small spiritualist. He should be a disciple of the Huoyun Sect who hasn't left yet."
After hearing what Chi Yuer said, Gu Yuan breathed a sigh of relief. Here, any unusual behavior was enough to make Gu Yuan alert.
A moment later, a thin, timid man walked out from behind the boulder.
"Please... please spare my life! I have no ill intentions, please don't kill me!"
As soon as the man came out, he knelt on the ground, his face full of fear, and begged for mercy.
Chi Yuer and Gu Yuan frowned, looked at each other, nodded, and approached the man.
"What's your name? Who are you?" Gu Yuan asked the man as he came to a place not far away from him.
"My Lord, my name is Wang Si, and I am an ordinary errand disciple of the Huoyun Sect!"
"A menial disciple? It seems that there is no one left in your Huoyun Sect. Why are you still staying here? What is your purpose?" Gu Yuan asked.
"No...no purpose. I...I just don't have anywhere to go, so I stayed here!"
Gu Yuan sneered and said, "I'll give you one more chance, otherwise you won't be able to save your life!"
"Sir, please spare my life! I'll tell you!" The man begged for mercy in panic.
Gu Yuan was speechless. No one from the Huoyun Sect dared to stay here now. Because of the previous battle, this place had been eroded by demonic energy for a long time. The flowers and plants began to wither, and even the spiritual energy here was a little turbid. If you were not careful, it might cause spiritual chaos. This little spiritualist obviously had some purpose for not leaving here.
"Tell me, what exactly are you doing here?" Gu Yuan said.
"My Lord, I just don't have anywhere else to go, and I wanted to come here to see if there's anything valuable..."
"Fuck!"
Hearing this, Gu Yuan's face suddenly changed.
Chi Yu'er looked at Gu Yuan hurriedly and asked, "Brother Gu Yuan, what's going on?"
"Yu'er, have you been here after the battle that day?" Gu Yuan stared at Chi Yu'er and asked.
"Yes, I have been here."
"Then... have you ever been into the treasure house here? It contains all the good things accumulated by the Huoyun Sect over the years!" Gu Yuan said excitedly.
