Everyone was staring at Aotian in shock. Even a fool could understand that Aotian and his group were clearly targeting the Skeleton Adventure Team.
"Kid, who do you think you are? How dare you boast about protecting the Xiao Brothers here?!" Lu Hongming shouted at Aotian.
What truly made Lu Hongming wary was Xiao Ya, while Aotian was merely a martial artist at the Innate Second Layer, clearly not taken seriously by Lu Hongming.
"The Skeleton Adventure Team is quite impressive. We really will protect the Xiao Brothers!" Xiao Ya said with a smile that didn't reach his eyes.
"Friend, leave some room for negotiation; we might meet again in the future. Do you really want to be enemies with our Skeleton Adventure Team? Our captain is a Half-Step Human Spirit martial artist!" Lu Hongming's tone carried an obvious threat.
"Less talk! I want to see what your so-called Skeleton Adventure Team can do against me!"
"Vice Captain, that middle-aged man has the cultivation of Innate Nine Levels. Should we act now or wait for our father to arrive?" Qiu Wenxuan whispered in Lu Hongming's ear.
"What? He really is an Innate Nine Levels martial artist?!"
When Lu Hongming heard that Xiao Ya was an Innate Nine Levels martial artist, his pupils slightly contracted, and his wrist involuntarily trembled.
Lu Hongming understood that although he was also on the verge of becoming an Innate Nine Levels martial artist, he was not a true Innate Nine Levels martial artist. If it came down to a fight with Xiao Ya, he wouldn't have much of a chance.
Thinking this, Lu Hongming slightly cupped his hands and said, "Since you insist on protecting the Xiao Brothers, I won't say much more. I just hope you won't interfere in the Mystic Spirit Fruit dispute again!"
With that, he led the members of the Skeleton Adventure Team toward the cave.
Just as Xiao Ya was about to stop Lu Hongming from seizing the Mystic Spirit Fruit, Aotian suddenly waved his hand, signaling for Lu Hongming to enter.
Although Xiao Ya felt puzzled, seeing Aotian appear confident, he chose not to say much. He then walked towards the Xiao Brothers.
"Thank you three for saving our lives!" Xiao Ya, along with Wang Shuiqun and Xiao Qingfeng, quickly expressed their gratitude as Aotian approached them.
"Oh, no need for that. I'm just curious why you three came to compete for the Mystic Spirit Fruit. That thing shouldn't be of much help to you, right?" Xiao Ya asked, puzzled.
Immediately, Aotian and Wang Shuiqun looked at Xiao Qingfeng with curiosity.
Xiao Qingfeng forced a smile and said, "To be honest, we are not here to fight for the Mystic Spirit Fruit; we came for the Fire Spirit Lion's Mystic Pill."
Upon hearing Xiao Qingfeng's words, Aotian and Xiao Ya's curiosity deepened. Could it be that the three brothers were short on money and came to hunt the Fire Spirit Lion?
Meanwhile, Wang Shuiqun's expression changed upon hearing that Xiao Qingfeng was after the Fire Spirit Lion's Mystic Pill, but he quickly returned to normal without anyone else noticing.
"My third brother was afflicted by some Cold Poison and needs the Fire Spirit Lion's Mystic Pill as an ingredient to refine a type of elixir. So, we took this opportunity during the Mystic Spirit Fruit competition to hunt the Fire Spirit Lion. After all, if it were just the three of us, we wouldn't be able to kill the Fire Spirit Lion," Xiao Lengyue suddenly said.
After hearing Xiao Lengyue's explanation, Aotian turned his gaze towards Xiao Yanyang.
He saw that Xiao Yanyang's face was pale, clearly injured from their earlier encounter with the Fire Spirit Lion's terrifying aura.
However, Aotian was still able to sense that the temperature within Xiao Yanyang was far from that of a normal person, with even some of the flowing blood containing traces of ice. Clearly, Xiao Lengyue was speaking the truth and had not concealed the real situation.
"Hehe, the fact that the Fire Spirit Lion could be killed is largely due to the efforts of you Xiao Clan brothers. The Mystic Pill from the Fire Spirit Lion truly belongs to you," Aotian said with a smile.
The Xiao Brothers immediately showed expressions of great joy and said, "We will always remember the favor of our younger brother! If there’s ever a time when you need our help, just let us know, and we will do our utmost to assist!"
Aotian lightly nodded and jokingly said, "I hope you two older brothers won’t turn me away at that time..."
"Haha, we won't!"
Then, they casually chatted about some trivial topics.
"By the way, Aotian, you must have come for the Mystic Spirit Fruit, right? Most people have already entered the cave; why haven’t you gone in? If you wait too long, the Mystic Spirit Fruit will be taken by someone else!"
Suddenly, Xiao Qingfeng spoke to Aotian.
Aotian looked around; at this moment, only he and his companions remained, while everyone else had entered the cave. Clearly, they had gone for the Mystic Spirit Fruit.
"Yes, Aotian, why didn’t you let me stop Lu Hongming earlier?" Xiao Ya also asked in confusion.
Aotian smiled lightly and said:
"Isn't everyone saying that there's a cub of the Fire Spirit Lion in this cave?"
"Yeah, what's wrong?" Xiao Qingfeng asked, puzzled.
Aotian smiled without saying a word, but that smile seemed a bit... well, a bit mischievous.
The crowd exchanged glances, completely unable to understand the meaning behind Aotian's smile.
"Ah, you guys are really foolish! Do you think a Fire Spirit Lion can give birth to a Fire Spirit Lion cub?" Aotian said with exasperation.
The crowd wasn't stupid either; after Aotian's reminder, they suddenly realized.
"Aotian, are you saying that there is very likely another Level One Fire Spirit Lion in that cave?" Xiao Qingfeng's tone carried a hint of fear.
Aotian affirmed, "Not likely, but definitely!"
As soon as he finished speaking, an enraged lion's roar echoed from the cave, filled with overwhelming fury. Clearly, the owner of that voice had been greatly provoked.
When Aotian and the others in Mountain Valley heard that roar, they immediately gave Aotian a thumbs up.
It was evident that the reality matched Aotian's guess perfectly; there was indeed another Level One Fire Spirit Lion in that cave!
Soon after, the crowd began to revel in the misfortune. They certainly didn't believe that anyone inside the cave could handle that furious Fire Spirit Lion safely.
"Roar"
The sound of the Lion's Roar echoed continuously, interspersed with the anguished cries of human warriors. There was no need to guess; Aotian and the others knew that the cave was now a river of blood. Many had entered the cave, but few would likely emerge.
Time slowly passed, and the Lion's Roar grew weaker. Clearly, the Fire Spirit Lion within the cave had also suffered severe injuries. By the end, the Mountain Valley was eerily quiet.
"Hey hey, it's time for us to step in and clean up the mess!"
Aotian slowly stood up, grinning.
"Haha, our injuries have healed a bit, so we'll go in with you. Anyone who dares to obstruct Aotian will have their necks crushed," Xiao Lengyue said with a sinister smile.
The group exchanged faint smiles before heading toward the cave...
