Liu Yan stood in the air and threw the body of a huge beast down to the ground. Blood was still flowing out from its body, and the smell of blood stank up the entire place. He looked at Mu Chen with disdain.
Mu Chen looked back at Liu Yan and frowned. He had not expected to see him at the first station. What a coincidence!
“This is not a coincidence,” Liu Yan said, seeming to have read his thoughts. He smiled, then said, “When you were sparring with me at the Dragon-Phoenix Pavilion, I left a special spiritual seal on you. That is why I can sense where you are.”
Mu Chen was shocked, and immediately, his face turned grave. The purple flame in his body started to burn, and a strange fluctuation started to churn on his hair.
Pooh.
As the purple flame swept past, one of his hairs was burnt. The strange fluctuation then disappeared.
Mu Chen looked coldly at Liu Yan. He had been extremely careful, but he had not realized that Liu Yan had secretly left a seal on him. Liu Yan seemed to have some special skills.
Fortunately, he had removed the seal. If he and Cai Xiao had found the other Dragon-Phoenix Pools, Liu Yan would have followed behind them, and created problems for them.
“You seem confident in defeating me,” Mu Chen said, as he stared at Liu Yan.
“Don’t worry. I will not look down on you. To ensure that you will stay forever in the Dragon-Phoenix Pool, I have put down my ego, and recruited help.” Liu Yan smiled, as he clapped his hands lightly.
Boom!
As he clapped his hands, a beam of spiritual energy shot up to the peak of the skeleton hill. After the light had dissipated, a man appeared. The man had long red hair and red eyes, like those of a snake. He looked fierce and vicious.
As the man appeared, a strong scent for the desire of blood covered the sky.
Mu Chen stared at him, looking grave. He could sense a threatening fluctuation emitting from the man. He was not a simple person.
“Please…Liu Yan. Why have you asked me to help you deal with a Grade Three Sovereign? What has happened to you? When did you become such a coward?” The red-haired man stared at Mu Chen with his snake eyes, as he laughed weirdly.
“The lion wrestles the rabbit. I give it my all. I always leave no room for failure,” Liu Yan said, as he looked at Mu Chen. “He is Scarlet Blood from the Snake Shrine. He is ranked number nine in the Dragon-Phoenix Record…I think I truly do hold you in high regard. Two people from among the top ten in the Dragon-Phoenix Record are here in order to send you off.”
“Scarlet Blood from the Snake Shrine?”
Mu Chen’s heart gave a thud. He furrowed his brows, as he stared at the red-haired man. No wonder he smelled so strongly of blood. This was the notorious ruthless man that had slaughtered the people of many cities.
Mu Chen was surprised to see Scarlet Blood. He had not expected Liu Yan to get a helper, even though he was supposed to have the upper-hand. Liu Yan was much more cautious than was his younger brother, Liu Ming.
“I feel so honored,” Mu Chen said, as he looked at the position that he was in and laughed. He was in between the two. Although he looked shocked, he was not fearful or flustered, as Liu Yan had expected him to be.
“It seems like you have no idea what is going to happen to you.” Seeing that Mu Chen was not afraid, Liu Yan’s face became all the more indifferent. However, before he could finish what he had wanted to say, he saw a slender figure on top of the Demonic Ape.
The girl had a seductive look. Her hair blew gently in the breeze, and she sat on the dead body of the Demonic Ape. She rested her chin on her hands, she looked at them with a lazy gaze.
Liu Yan and Scarlet Blood suddenly looked cold, as the girl had appeared without their knowledge. This had caused them both to be alert.
“Pardon me, I also have a helper,” Mu Chen looked at Liu Yan, speaking the words with a smile.
Liu Yan looked coldly at Mu Chen, and then at Cai Xiao. When they were at the Dragon-Phoenix Pavilion, he had not sensed that this girl was so powerful. However, when she had appeared earlier, he could sense danger.
