"Here!" Xuan'er seemed very concerned and immediately poured him a spoonful. The golden honey glittered in the spoon like concentrated sunlight.
"Gurgle gurgle!" The old man looked unsatisfied and started licking the spoon, as if every drop of honey contained endless deliciousness.
"Hurry up and tell me!" Xuan'er urged, with a hint of anxiety in her eyes.
"Don't talk about it yet, they are here, let's go up first!" Yu Kai interrupted.
"Oh! Wasp, keep an eye on him and don't let him run away!" Xuan'er followed Yu Kai upstairs and shouted to Wasp.
"Okay, hero! He can't run away as long as I'm here!" The Second King picked up the old man who was about to lick the small pond, flapped his wings and followed him.
"Master Wan Hu, there are signs of a struggle here. They must have gone in!" A silver-armored captain stood outside the lair, respectfully reporting upwards. His voice echoed through the empty valley, remarkably clear. Beside him stood a firebird, a head taller than him. This was a domesticated demonic beast of the Shengying Dynasty, so named for its ability to spit forth blazing flames. The firebird's feathers gleamed a fiery red in the sunlight, as if ready to unleash a blazing flame at any moment.
Dozens of flaming birds circled in the sky, each one carrying a captain, led by a bearded, black-armored captain. "Everyone, go down! Capture this man and bring back the Holy Sword!" His voice was deep and powerful, imbued with immense authority.
"Yes!" The captains on the Firebirds clasped their fists and accepted the order. With a command, the Firebirds landed one by one, and the captains drew their weapons and surrounded the nest.
A handsome young man and a girl carrying a large backpack walked out, followed by a bumblebee and an old man with a bruised face. The sunlight shone on their bodies, outlining their clear outlines.
As soon as the old man saw Heijia Wanhu, his eyes lit up instantly, "Master Tu, please save me! I've been kidnapped by them!" There was a hint of trembling in his voice, as if he had seen a life-saving straw.
"Be the fucking honest! If you don't behave, I'll fucking cut you again!" The Second King knew how terrifying Yu Kai was. These people were nothing to him! There was a hint of warning in his voice, and a fierce glint in his eyes.
Tu Wanhu looked at him carefully, frowning.
"I'm Elder Fang from the outer sect of Lingyun Sect!" The old man was hung in the air by the second king. He straightened his messy hair and tried to let Tu Wanhu recognize him.
"Elder Fang! What's wrong with you?" Tu Wanhu recognized him and there was a hint of doubt in his voice.
"I'm here on the orders of the Sect Master..." He was about to mention searching for the alchemy furnace, but then decided the matter was too serious to spread. "I was searching for Hundred Flower Honey for the Sect Master, but I never imagined they would scheme against me. My power has been severely damaged. Not only was the honey stolen, but they've also captured me!" His voice was filled with a hint of grievance.
Tu Wanhu looked at Yu Kai and said, "Release Elder Fang and return the Hundred Flowers Honey to him. Then give me the Holy Sword and come back with me to investigate!" His voice was filled with unquestionable majesty.
"Why do you believe everything others say? Are all the subordinates of Emperor Yingtian so brainless?" Yu Kai said directly in dissatisfaction.
"How dare you! How dare you blaspheme His Majesty!" Tu Wanhu took out a big knife and pointed it at Yu Kai.
"Catch him for me!" There was a hint of anger in his voice, as if his reverse scale had been touched.
"Yes!" The surrounding thousand households came together to attack. The cold light of their weapons flashed in the sunlight, as if to tear everything apart.
Yu Kai's momentum surged, sending the charging Qian Hu flying. He took out the Hundred Flower Honey and began to drink it in big gulps. He then put away the gourd and reached out to grab the Moon Spirit Sacred Sword.
"No wonder he's so arrogant! He's actually a clan king!" Tu Wanhu snorted coldly, and charged forward with his broadsword. His broadsword made a sharp sound, as if it was going to cut Yu Kai in two.
Ding! The holy sword and the broadsword collided, directly shocking Tu Wanhu's arm so much that it went numb and he retreated repeatedly. He looked at the young man in front of him with horror, "Who are you?"
"Get lost! This sword is mine! I didn't steal his nectar. Don't send any more people over here, or I won't be so polite anymore!" Yu Kai's face turned cold as he sheathed the Moon Spirit Sword. There was a hint of warning in his voice, and a cold glint in his eyes.
"You have blasphemed His Majesty, and this matter will never end!" Tu Wanhu said coldly.
But just as he finished speaking, a dark figure appeared in front of him, punched him, and sent him flying. Tu Wanhu's figure traced an arc in the air and eventually disappeared into the distance.
"You..." The other thousand households were filled with fear, and they slowly retreated with their swords drawn. Seeing that Yu Kai did not make a move, they immediately climbed onto the Firebird and retreated into the air.
"Alright!" Yu Kai looked at the others, "It's getting dark! Let's find a place to stay!"
"Sir, I know where we can stay. I'll show you the way!" The Second King flew over with a friendly look on his face. His wings flapped, stirring up a gentle breeze.
"Okay, put him down and lead the way!" Yu Kai signaled him to put down Elder Fang.
"Alright, hero!" Plop! Elder Fang fell to the ground, and Yu Kai stepped forward and picked him up. "Tell me about your alchemy furnace and the fragments of the alchemy scroll!"
Xuan'er immediately followed, listening carefully, her eyes brimming with anticipation.
"The elder of the Dan Sect told me that the fragments of the Dan Dao scroll contain a recipe for a pill that can improve people's physical fitness and allow people without spiritual roots to practice quickly." Elder Fang said seriously, with a hint of urgency in his voice.
"And that alchemy furnace is a treasure that possesses a spirit. Using it to refine elixirs will get twice the result with half the effort." There was a hint of pride in his voice, as if he was describing a priceless treasure.
Yu Kai looked at Xuan'er, whose face was calm, and set up a soundproof barrier and said, "Have you known this a long time ago?" There was a hint of tenderness in his voice, as if he was asking an old friend.
Xuan'er nodded slightly.
"The Alchemy Furnace Grandpa you mentioned should be that alchemy furnace, right?" Yu Kai smiled.
"Yeah." Xuan'er nodded slightly, "I never thought of hiding it from you."
"It's okay, this is your chance. Did you want me to help you get the remaining scroll just now?" Yu Kai's tone was gentle.
"Are you willing? I need it really!" There was a hint of eagerness in Xuan'er's eyes, and she grasped Yu Kai's shoulders tightly.
"Don't worry! When I recover from my injury, I will get it for you!" Yu Kai smiled and patted Xuan'er's hand, his eyes full of determination.
Xuan'er looked at Yu Kai's profile. The sunlight shone on his face, outlining his resolute features. "Thank you!" Her voice was soft but full of gratitude.
