CHAPTER 1216: CHAPTER 1201: A LONG-LOST FEELING

This person never expected that the obstacle he ran into today was actually the renowned genius of the world, the Flame Sacred Land’s Huo Yu.

Upon hearing Huo Yu’s name, the hatred that rose in this person’s heart immediately vanished into thin air.

If he still wanted to seek revenge, he would surely be bringing humiliation and destruction upon himself.

Here was the Flame Sacred Land’s Saint Son! A renowned genius of the entire Wilderness Continent.

In terms of lineage, talent, and cultivation techniques, there was nothing he could compare to!

At this moment, he even found the hatred that had welled up in his heart before to be laughable! He actually intended to seek revenge on the Flame Saint Son.

Soon after, the burn-scarred youth spoke pleadingly to Huo Yu:

"I dare not! I absolutely dare not! Saint Son, today’s matter was my blindness! Please spare me! With your stature, even killing someone like me would only sully your hands!"

"Such a feeling, it’s finally back! Suddenly I feel I haven’t experienced this in a long time!" Upon seeing this person’s reaction to hearing his name, Huo Yu sighed in his heart.

Ever since following that ’Demon’, he had not only become like a subordinate but often had to watch his expressions, or else the consequences...

Since then, he hadn’t enjoyed such reverence from others.

Seeing the charred person’s current demeanor, Huo Yu’s desire to kill vanished completely, and for a moment, he found such a person somewhat endearing.

Afterward, Huo Yu addressed him: "I the Saint Child am benevolent; let today’s disrespect toward me end here. I will spare your life this time, but if there’s a next, I won’t forgive easily!"

Upon hearing Huo Yu say he would forgive him, the person quickly replied: "No, no! There won’t be a next time! I swear to the heavens, I wouldn’t dare offend you again, wouldn’t that be asking for death, I won’t ever do such a stupid thing again! Thank you, Saint Son, for sparing my life!"

Listening to the person’s assured words, Huo Yu smiled coldly and said calmly, "Alright, scram!"

Upon hearing "scram" from Huo Yu, the burn-scarred youth nodded repeatedly: "Yes, yes! I’ll scram! I’ll scram! Thank you, Saint Son, for sparing my life! Thank you, Saint Son!"

Immediately, the youth’s charred body rolled with all its might, rapidly spinning away from this void.

In the distance, it looked like a rolling black cloud. Huo Yu’s eyes followed it until the shadow completely vanished from his sight.

"Sigh!" At this time, Huo Yu let out a deep sigh in his heart. He lamented his current wretched destiny, not knowing when it would end.

Freedom... the fate of freedom!

"What are you standing there for, lost in thought?" At this moment, a familiar young and indifferent voice suddenly sounded behind Huo Yu.

Huo Yu, who was lost in thought, felt a guilty pang upon hearing that voice and his body trembled.

Afterward, Huo Yu slowly turned his head, looking at the blood-colored figure carrying a coffin, and smiled quickly, saying: "Boss, I wasn’t thinking of anything."

The abnormality of Huo Yu just now didn’t escape Shi Feng’s eyes. Looking at Huo Yu, Shi Feng frowned and asked: "Hmm? What were you thinking so deeply about just now that hearing my voice frightened you?"

"Nothing much! Just thought of some past events. Boss, you’re overthinking." Huo Yu replied.

In truth, he hadn’t lied; he was indeed contemplating his past.

Shi Feng didn’t delve deeper into the matter and said, "What was once is now past. Don’t dwell on unrealistic thoughts, face the present!"

Shi Feng’s words seemed to have a deeper meaning, as if suggesting that once Huo Yu was the illustrious Flame Saint Son, but now he was merely a subordinate who needed to face reality.

"Has this ’Demon’ guessed what I was thinking?" Listening to Shi Feng’s words, Huo Yu speculated inwardly.

Subsequently, Huo Yu quickly said, "Boss, you’re absolutely right! I’ve stopped entertaining any unrealistic thoughts."

Facing this ’Demon’, Huo Yu dared not say otherwise. If this ’Demon’ grew suspicious and decided to "remind him of his place", it would be him who would suffer!

"Alright, let’s continue our journey! Push on with full speed, in another day’s time, we should reach Ice Snow Wilderness City," Shi Feng said.

Reaching Ice Snow Wilderness City, exterminating that scoundrel at Gu’e Mountain, activating the Ancient Transmission Great Formation to head to the "Sinister Abyss", it would bring him one step closer to home.

"Hmm!" Upon hearing Shi Feng’s words, Huo Yu nodded slightly.

Then, the figures of Shi Feng and Huo Yu, suspended in this void, flickered simultaneously, and rapidly teleported forward.

...

Wilderness Continent, Luoshan Great Wilderness.

"Ah! Ah! Ah! Ah!" In a desolate deep mountain forest, echoed waves of painful and shrill screams.

Nearby mountain beasts, upon hearing the screams, fled in all directions, and flocks of birds took to the sky.

"Mang Xin, are you okay?" Following the shrill screams, a concerned feminine shout rang out, clear and melodious, akin to a nightingale.

Two figures appeared intermittently in this remote mountain forest—a young man and a young woman.

The woman, dressed in white, was of stunning beauty. If Shi Feng were here, he would surely recognize her as Changshan, the third-ranked beauty within the top ten of Luoshan Great Wilderness, daughter of the Python Dragon Clan Patriarch, Mang Xu.

The young man, previously considered a genius within the Python Dragon Clan, was named Mang Xin.

Once, he had a three-year agreement with the Patriarch’s daughter Changshan, whereby if Mang Xin entered the Demigod Realm, she would consider being with him.

That day, in pursuit of a path of greatness, Mang Xin decisively left the Python Dragon Clan Tribe. To be with the ’her’ in his heart, Mang Xin trained diligently day and night, fearing no hardship, only to one day enter that realm and return to the Python Dragon Clan Tribe to find her.

Yet unexpectedly, that day, Mang Xin ended up in a filthy and murky swamp and encountered his disheveled goddess there.

At that time, it was clear that Changshan had suffered many hardships and endured countless grievances, making Mang Xin feel heartbroken witnessing it.

From her, Mang Xin learned that his Python Dragon Clan’s Patriarch, Mang Xu, had been killed, and many warriors of the Python Dragon Clan were captured by other tribes with ulterior motives and made into slaves.

His Python Dragon Clan, one could say, had vanished from existence!

All because of that one person, the Python Dragon Clan was completely destroyed!
