When Mo Tang returned to Ye City, he found it in ruins.
His face immediately turned grim. He transformed into a streak of light and instantly arrived at the headquarters of the Four Directions Pavilion in the city… Behind
him
, Bi Wu and Little Fairy Doctor were clearly also surprised by this.
Ye City had obviously been attacked by a powerful figure…
"Let's go. Hopefully, the losses won't be too great." Bi Wu shook his head slightly and immediately followed Mo Tang.
A cold killing intent flashed in Little Fairy Doctor's purple eyes, because she could clearly sense the anger in Mo Tang's heart…
Everyone who angered her man deserved to die!
In the hall, Ye Xinlan looked timidly at the man before her…
Although his expression remained indifferent, she sensed a terrifying energy emanating from him, ready to erupt at any moment.
"What exactly happened at the Four Directions Pavilion after I left?"
Mo Tang's emotionless voice echoed around them.
Startled by the sudden voice, Ye Xinlan quickly recounted everything that had transpired.
It turned out that not long after Mo Tang and his companions left, a man claiming to be the Crimson Flame Evil Lord came looking for Mo Tang, saying he wanted revenge for his brother…
Upon hearing this name, Mo Tang's brows furrowed immediately. .•°¤*(¯`★´¯)*¤° 6❾ⓈнⓊⓧ.Čо𝐌 °¤*(¯´★`¯)*¤°•.
"Crimson Flame Evil Lord? I don't know this person. Also, did he mention who his elder brother is?"
Although he had offended many people over the years, there were probably not many who could beat the four Venerables of the Four Directions Pavilion to such a state.
The Four Directions Pavilion had indeed suffered considerable losses this time. Among the four Venerables, Venerable Wind and Venerable Sword were seriously injured and were currently in seclusion to heal their wounds. It was unlikely that they would be able to fully recover in a short time.
As for Venerable Thunder, as Mo Tang's master, he was the most miserable. He was beaten to the point of barely having a breath left... It was only because Ye Zhong did not hesitate to take out his family's ancestral eighth-grade healing pill that he was kept alive. Otherwise, Mo Tang would be holding a funeral right now.
Of the four Venerables, Wang Chen was the least injured. It was unclear whether the other party simply disdained to attack him; in any case, he was the least wounded. However, he was terrified and fled to his own lair, the Yellow Springs Pavilion…
Mo Tang didn't have time to deal with him now. The most important thing was to find out the enemy's identity and whereabouts. The enemy was powerful, so the danger had to be completely eliminated.
The various branches of the Four Directions Pavilion were too far apart; even with wormhole connections, it would be difficult to defend against an attack from such a powerful figure.
Hearing Mo Tang's question, Ye Xinlan quickly said, "That person said his brother was the Demon Flower Evil Lord…"
Demon Flower Evil Lord?
Mo Tang was instantly stunned. •♫•♬• ❻➈丂𝒽Ⓤ᙭.𝒸𝔬𝔪 •♬•♫•.
This person has a brother? How come I don't know?
Trying hard to recall the original plot in my mind, it seemed there wasn't such a person?
However, since the other party claimed to be the brother of the Demon Flower Evil Lord, they were very likely also from the Heavenly Nether Sect… Originally, Mo Tang hadn't intended to cause trouble for the Heavenly Nether Sect right now, but he hadn't expected them to make the first move.
But that was fine too; if that was the case, then Mo Tang wouldn't mind making them one of his next targets.
Using a top-tier power as a stepping stone for his rise should be enough, right…?
After asking a few more questions and finding that Ye Xinlan had no more useful information, Mo Tang turned and went directly to the backyard.
There, the Pill Pavilion Master, Ye Zhong, was carefully tending to Lei Zunzhe's body, while the once majestic and domineering Lei Zunzhe was now lying there, pale-faced, still unconscious.
"Grand Pavilion Master!"
Upon seeing Mo Tang enter, Ye Zhong quickly stood up and bowed to him.
Mo Tang waved his hand, glancing at the Lei Venerable lying there, his brows furrowing.
"Senior Ye, how is my teacher now?"
Ye Zhong shook his head with a wry smile, replying, "Please forgive me, Grand Master, this old man is truly powerless. Moreover, there is a very strange energy within Lei Venerable's body constantly damaging his meridians…
If this continues, I fear that in another month, Lei Venerable's body will suffer irreversible damage. Even if we can revive him then, his cultivation will likely be lost…"
Mo Tang's expression changed, and he quickly went to the bedside, his soul power instantly invading Lei Venerable's meridians to investigate.
Sure enough, in Mo Tang's perception, Lei Venerable's meridians were filled with a strange fire energy, deeply condensed with his battle qi and even his blood qi, constantly eroding his body.
"This is… a strange fire?"
Mo Tang's expression froze.
This was the second time he'd been astonished today.
First, that so-called Demon Flower Evil Lord inexplicably had a powerful brother, and this minor character, whose existence was unknown in the original story, also possessed an unknown strange fire?
The Dou Qi Continent's Strange Fire Ranking had twenty-three entries, each with detailed descriptions. Many top powers possessed this information, and Mo Tang had naturally learned about it from the records left by Yao Lao.
But the strange fire currently within Lei Zunzhe's body was different from all twenty-three of those…
"This is getting more and more interesting…"
A deep killing intent flashed in Mo Tang's eyes. It was best to eliminate this "unexpected individual" who was beyond his control!
Of course, the most important thing now was to find a way to protect Lei Zunzhe's life and cultivation.
If Ye Zhong couldn't do it, he would probably need to seek help from the Heavenly Demon Phoenix Clan…
After inquiring with Bi Wu, the latter indeed gave him a feasible solution.
"Actually, it's simple. We can just reshape a new body for him..."
Although this is a very demanding task, the Heavenly Phoenix Clan's resources certainly allow it.
Moreover, given Mo Tang's current status within the clan, simply getting the clan leader's approval wouldn't be a major problem.
However, his suggestion made Mo Tang's eyes light up...
It seemed that in the original story, when Xiao Yan refined Yao Lao's body, he added the essence of a Dou Sheng's bone marrow, directly pushing Yao Lao's strength to the level of a half-saint.
And wasn't his own disciple also forcibly reshaped into a body using the remains of a Dou Sheng?
Although these two are fundamentally different, they seem to have some similarities...
"I now have the complete remains of a Creation Saint. If I can integrate them into my teacher's body, wouldn't that mean I can create another Saint-level powerhouse?"
This thought, once it appeared in Mo Tang's mind, immediately lingered!
