Chapter 103: Fire Evil Blocks the Road

Seeing that Xiaoyu's protection had been mostly broken, only the protection that Li Chuyi had set for her with the aura of the Dao Canon was still running slightly. Seeing that it was about to break, Yu Yao hurried over to hold her in her arms, and waved her hands to re-arrange several layers of protection for her.

Li Chuyi's movements were only slightly slower than Yu Yao's. Seeing that Yu Yao was still a little worried after the protection was finished, he used his magic power to set her several layers of protection mixed with the aura of the Dao Canon.

Yu Yao looked at him deeply, nodded to him, and couldn't help but praise him with a surprised tone: "Junior brother, you have a good trick!"

Li Chuyi just nodded and didn't say much.

He knew why Yu Yao was surprised. Yu Yao's cultivation was far higher than hers, but the protection prohibitions she had set up had been broken and dissipated. Only the protection prohibitions that Li Chuyi had set up when Xiaoyu left were still running. If it weren't for him, Xiaoyu would have turned into ashes in the cave long ago. How could Yu Yao not be surprised about this?

Seeing that he didn't say much, Yu Yao didn't ask any more questions. There are too many mysteries and surprises about this chubby little junior brother. Although Yu Yao is curious, she knows her limits. Since Li Chuyi is unwilling to say more, she naturally doesn't want to ask the truth, which is taboo.

Besides, this is not the time to be curious.

Turning her head, she saw the figures of five evil cultivators disappearing in the opposite tunnel. Just now, the five people took advantage of Xiaoyu's arrival and Yu Yao had no time to pay attention to him. Seeing the opportunity, they ran away. Although Wang Yuan and his friends wanted to stop them, they knew that they couldn't stop them with their means, and Xiaoyu was more important, so they watched them disappear in the tunnel helplessly.

Seeing that the five people had run away, Yu Yao did not chase them, but looked at Xiaoyu with a serious face and asked: "Xiaoyu, is the ground fire erupting?"

Xiaoyu had recovered his breath at this time, and nodded hurriedly when he heard it, with a face full of anxiety and fear.

"Sister, the ground suddenly cracked at the fork in the back, and then the tunnel was full of fire. I thought I was dead! Fortunately, I was able to survive because of the protective barriers set up by my sister and Chuyi. However, after the fire was extinguished, a lot of magma gushed out of the crack. Fortunately, the magma flowed slowly, so I had time to run over to find you."

After hearing Xiaoyu's words, everyone was shocked. They turned their heads and looked at the tunnel where Xiaoyu came from. As expected, they felt gusts of hot wind blowing.

"Let's go!"

Yu Yao made a prompt decision, picked up Xiaoyu and rushed in the direction where the five evil cultivators went. Wang Yuan and others also hurried to catch up. Li Chuyi was even more afraid that he would run too slowly, so he used all the light body spells he could use on himself.

After running all the way, they arrived at a fork in the road soon. Looking at the two caves in front of them, Yu Yao hesitated for a moment and casually chose the one on the left.

"This way!"

Wang Yuan and others had no objection. The situation was urgent. There was no incense pill to guide the way at this intersection. They could only guess. It didn't matter which one they chose. So they immediately followed Yu Yao to enter the cave, but suddenly found that several figures suddenly flew out of the tunnel on the left.

They were shocked. When they looked carefully, they found that they were the five evil cultivators who had just escaped. All five of them were injured just now. When they saw each other again, they saw that their bodies were blackened. One of the black-clothed evil cultivators with the weakest power even had a large area of ​​his pants burnt, revealing his charred calves.

The five evil cultivators were also shocked when they saw Yu Yao. They subconsciously raised their weapons, but they put them down again after exchanging glances.

People on both sides knew that this was not the time to settle accounts. It was important to escape first.

With the five evil cultivators testing the law, the passage on the left was definitely not allowed to go. Without saying a word, all of them flew into the passage on the right.

They ran all the way, feeling the faint vibration under their feet. They all knew that something must have happened in the tunnel and fire was erupting. They couldn't help but curse their bad luck. This area is a relatively safe place outside the Fire Cloud Pit, and there are few underground fires. Today, they didn't know what happened and it broke out on a large scale, and they were caught up.

If it was in its heyday, there would be no problem, but now the two sides fought fiercely, and almost everyone was injured. Even Yu Yao was not injured, but her magic power was consumed a lot. Now faced with such a critical situation, no one knew whether they could escape alive.

Not long after, several people saw an open space at the end of the tunnel. They knew that another fork had arrived, and both sides couldn't help but speed up their pace.

They had to go together just now. At this time, the fork appeared, and everyone on both sides wanted to leave the other side as soon as possible. They didn't know when the other party would make a move. They were worried about leaving such a hidden danger around them.

Yu Yao was the fastest. She entered the open space at the fork first, but suddenly her footsteps were fixed, and the whole person was fixed in place. Behind her were the bald and white-faced young men. Seeing Yu Yao suddenly stop, they thought she was going to make trouble. They raised their weapons with a vigilant look, but they rushed over without stopping.

However, until the two rushed past Yu Yao, she did not make any trouble. The two bald men, relieved, slowed down their pace and prepared to wait for the three brothers behind them. However, they suddenly saw the scene in front of them and retreated in panic with a look of shock, until they retreated to Yu Yao and stood with her.

They finally knew why Yu Yao stopped.

At this time, the people behind also rushed over, looking at the three of them in confusion, not understanding why they suddenly stopped. When they turned around to see what was in the empty space, they all looked shocked and dazed, and could not help but step back several steps.

In the open space in front of them, a strange creature less than one meter tall stood there. It had a human-like appearance, and you could vaguely see the existence of its limbs, but it had no head or face, just like a child's headless clay figurine that was magnified.

However, this "little clay figurine" was not cute at all, and its body was not mud, but sticky magma. Magma kept dripping from it to the ground, burning the already hot ground and emitting bursts of black smoke, showing its scorching heat.

Although it did not move, it stood there like a sculpture made of magma, but several people still felt frightened and did not dare to move at all.

Just kidding, you can feel the heat that is about to dry you out from such a distance. If you venture close to provoke this "little clay figurine" to show its power, it is estimated that they will not have enough lives to live.

"Is this, is this a fire demon?"

Li Chuyi's face was sluggish.

Yu Yao nodded lightly with a solemn face.

Li Chuyi was mad at once. He wanted to shout but was afraid of startling the Fire Demon. He lowered his voice and grabbed Wang Yuan and asked, "Fuck you, didn't you say there is no Fire Demon in the periphery?!"

"I have never heard of anyone encountering this thing in the periphery before." Wang Yuan felt very wronged. He didn't expect to really encounter this thing. Before, he heard Yu Yao say that this thing might also appear in the periphery. He thought it was just a legend, but now that he really encountered it, he was dumbfounded.

I didn't check the almanac before going out. I don't know what happened today. I even encountered this thing!

After scratching my hair for a long time without thinking of a solution, Li Chuyi turned his head and looked at Yu Yao.

"Senior sister, what should I do?"

Yu Yao also pondered in her heart and kept thinking about a solution.

Now it is impossible to retreat. The road behind has been blocked by magma. Retreating is to seek death. Even if Yu Yao and the three Yuanyings of Baldhead and White Face can survive, the rest of these people will die.

They can't protect the safety of these people in the magma at all.

But there was another fire demon blocking the way. Although the fire demon was like a sculpture and had no reaction at this time, Yu Yao knew how terrifying it would be if it went crazy.

There were wolves in front and tigers behind, and Yu Yao had been thinking for a long time but couldn't come up with an idea.

Suddenly, she turned her head to look at the bald man and the white-faced man, and the two of them happened to look at her.

"Cooperation!"

The three of them said at the same time, and seeing that the other party was saying the same thing as they said, they all nodded with a gloomy face.

They all knew that if they didn't cooperate at this time, both sides would die. And if the three of them, the Nascent Soul cultivators, joined forces to resist the invasion of the fire demon and open up a path for others, then they still had a chance to survive.

The people around them were people that both sides could not give up. Even if the bald man and his men were evil cultivators, they were as close as brothers among themselves, and the evil and fierceness were only directed at outsiders.

"Join hands, don't sneak attack, otherwise you will die together." The bald man said in a deep voice.

"Okay!"

Yu Yao nodded, glanced at the two of them, and added: "Our people have to go first!"

"No!"

The bald man and the white-faced man shook their heads at the same time. Just kidding, if the people of Tianxu Palace were to go first, Yu Yao would not be burdened, who knows if this ruthless woman would sell them out.

Yu Yao frowned.

"It has to be okay!"

"Then die together!" The bald man said without hesitation.

Yu Yao sighed slightly in her heart, feeling a little regretful. She did have the intention of selling these evil cultivators after sending her people away, and seeing that the two were so decisive, she no longer forced it.

"Okay, we go together, but our people have to go first!"

"One at a time." The bald man said coldly.

Yu Yao looked at him and frowned, "We have more people, and we will suffer if we go one at a time! So, there are five of us and three of you, and we have two of you and one of us. If it works, it works, otherwise everyone will die here!"

After exchanging glances with the white-faced man, the bald man nodded in agreement.

"Zhao Mei, you take Xiaoyu first, Zhao Mu takes Chuyi, and Wang Yuan goes last."

Hearing Yu Yao's assignment, several people nodded. Although Xiaoyu wanted to follow Yu Yao, she also knew that this was not the time to fool around, so she nodded in agreement.

Looking at Xiaoyu who was reluctant to leave, Yu Yao smiled and said, "Why are you crying? We're just going to be apart for a while. I'll catch up with you when you leave."

After that, she told Zhao Mei, "Junior Sister Zhao Mei, take good care of her."

"Senior Sister, don't worry, I will protect Junior Sister Lu at the risk of my life!"

Zhao Mei nodded in agreement with a serious face, and then looked at Xiaoyu with a smile, reaching out to touch the black ash on her face.

"Xiaoyu, hold me tight later, don't let go, Senior Sister will definitely take you out."

Xiaoyu nodded obediently, turned around and looked at Yu Yao with a face full of worry and reluctance.

"Senior Sister, you must catch up quickly!"

Looking at Xiaoyu's face full of worry, Yu Yao smiled gently and stroked her little head.

"Don't worry, you don't know me yet, your senior sister. Have you forgotten who taught you to dig a hole to trap your second senior brother? I am the only one in the world who can trap others, and no one can trap me!"

Xiao Yu smiled immediately and nodded with an "I understand" look.

Li Chuyi looked at the two beauties, one big and one small, and curled his lips in his heart.

The Taoist priest was right, beautiful women are the root of trouble, and the most poisonous heart is women!

These two troubles!
