"Yes." Lei Fenfei nodded and frowned, because he felt that the red-clothed boy looked at him as if he was looking at a rare animal in the forest, which made him feel very uncomfortable.
"Excellent!" The young man in red closed his folding fan and said with a smile, "I heard that everyone in your clan is very powerful, and can even capture practitioners in the Chengyuan realm as sacrifices... I am not very talented. Although I have only reached the Great Perfection of the Qingyuan realm and am still some distance away from the Chengyuan realm, I would like to learn some of your advanced techniques."
Lei Fenfei felt provoked and sneered, "In that case, then you can go back with us. It's rare to meet such a proactive sacrifice like you. I can be polite to you."
The young man in red said, "Then thank you in advance."
Gongsun Zimang thought for a moment, then said, "You...are you from the City Lord's Mansion or one of the ten great sects?"
The young man in red smiled and nodded: "I am Zhuge Chengxi, the nephew of the city lord."
Chu Zhuzhu asked in confusion: "How do you know he is from the City Lord's Mansion?"
Since the young man in red did not try to escape, no one was in a hurry to imprison him.
Gongsun Zimang said, "Ordinary people call us the [Forbidden Clan], and only the high-ranking officials of the City Lord's Mansion and the ten major sects know the name [Compassion Clan]."
"Ha, so what if he is the city lord's nephew? Even if it is the city lord himself, if he comes to us, he can either serve as a sacrifice or join our clan. There is no third way..." Lei Fenfei's lips curled up in a sarcastic arc, and the green tear mark between his eyebrows lit up, trying to imprison Zhuge Chengxi's cultivation.
Zhuge Chengxi smiled and stretched out his hand. A ball of fire appeared in his palm. He looked at Lei Fenfei and shook his head, saying, "Your strength is not enough. I still have all the spiritual power in my body."
Lei Fenfei's face looked grim, but he only knew how to [Imprisonment] and [Soul Out of the Body], so he turned around and looked at his companions for help.
Lan Tiao was indifferent. He was not interested in catching sacrifices. The mark between his eyebrows lit up perfunctorily, but his target was not Zhuge Chengxi, but a tree.
Chu Zhuzhu was very cooperative, and the mark between her eyebrows lit up with a green light.
Gongsun Zimang had no idea what he was thinking and didn't use [Confinement] at all.
Zhuge Chengxi said disappointedly: "Too weak, are you really that weak?"
The flame in his palm not only did not shrink, but expanded again.
Zhuge Chengxi smiled innocently, like a mischievous child. He flicked his finger and sent the flame flying. He said with a smile, "Now, it's my turn to attack."
"Get out of the way!" Lei Fenfei knew that he had become a mortal and could not withstand the attack of fire, so he quickly dodged.
Lan Tiao and others also dodged. Fortunately, the flame had no ability to turn and track, and fell straight to the ground. However, surprisingly, the flame did not ignite the flowers and plants on the ground, nor did it ignite the woods on the side. It just burned quietly, like a flower that admired its own beauty, beautiful, peaceful and harmonious alone.
Chu Zhuzhu was quite brave. Seeing that the flames were not threatening, she tentatively used [Calm] on Zhuge Chengxi, then bent down and carefully stretched out her fingers to touch the flames on the ground.
"Huh? It's not hot at all..."
Just as he finished saying this, he heard Lei Fenfei let out a shrill scream. Because he was shouting too hard, not only was the tone of his voice out of tune, but his voice was also a little hoarse. He grabbed the collar of his chest in pain, as if he was suffering from cruel torture.
"What's wrong?" Gongsun Zimang asked hurriedly.
Lei Fenfei's body fell to the ground and rolled around. Tears streamed down his face and his mouth was wide open, as if he wanted to say something, but his vocal cords were damaged and he couldn't utter a word. His facial features were distorted by pain, looking very hideous.
At this moment, Gongsun Zimang suddenly fell to the ground. He stared wide-eyed, struggling in vain like a dying fish, letting out a deafening roar, "It's so hot, so hot..."
After saying these words, he was also deprived of the ability to speak, and rolled into a ball with Lei Fenfei. In order to relieve the pain, the two men grabbed each other's arms and bit each other. The scene was extremely scary. Chu Zhuzhu took a few steps back with a pale face, completely confused about what was going on.
The next moment, she also felt extreme pain.
“Ahhhh—”
A sharp soprano voice resounded through the sky, and Chu Zhuzhu's face turned pale. She finally understood why her two companions were in so much pain. It was because she felt that her internal organs were being ignited by the burning flames, turning into ashes bit by bit. This extreme pain made her lose the ability to scream completely after just a few screams. She just didn't know why her vitality was so tenacious. Why didn't she faint or die even though her internal organs were burned?
It turns out that when the pain reaches its extreme, death becomes a luxury.
Chu Zhuzhu hugged the tree trunk nearby and banged her head against the tree, but she couldn't die after banging for a long time. Her head was already covered in blood, but the pain was nothing compared to the pain in her internal organs. She hugged the tree and cried bitterly. Only Lan Tiao was still standing there intact.
The consecutive shouts of three people had attracted the nearby Compassionate Clan team. They rushed over and just saw Zhuge Chengxi with a red flame wrapped around his fingertips, reaching out his hand towards Lan Tiao.
"Stop!" More than twenty members of the Compassionate Tribe rushed over from different directions, and the green teardrop-shaped marks on their brows lit up one after another.
Zhuge Chengxi's hand froze in mid-air. He felt the spiritual energy between heaven and earth pressing towards him from all directions, causing a slight disorder in the spiritual energy in his body.
Zhuge Chengxi laughed heartily and said, "It seems your confinement technique is quite useful. However, if you want to control me—it's not enough!"
"Please don't let me down... I escaped from the City Lord's Mansion specifically to come find you..."
As he spoke, a small flame emerged from each of Zhuge Chengxi's ten fingers. The flame was bright red, even more colorful and eye-catching than the red clothes he was wearing. He flicked his hand lightly, and the ten flames flew out of his hand and fell to the ground.
The members of the Compassionate Tribe all hid away and displayed their magical powers. They had lived in this mountain for many years and had gained many abilities blessed by the gods, unlike the newcomers like Lei Fenfei who only had two pitiful abilities.
Some members of the Compassionate Tribe raised a flowing water shield in front of them to block the flames; some instantly increased their speed and "rescued" Lan Tiao from the spot; some of the Compassionate Tribe had green lights flickering between their brows, which fell on Chu Zhuzhu and the others, performing healing techniques; some of the tribe condensed green lights between their brows into spears, actively attacking Zhuge Chengxi; some of the tribe condensed green lights between their brows into a huge cage, which enveloped Zhuge Chengxi...
