Peerless Dragon Sovereign

Chapter 354: Insatiable Greed


Huo Nianfang was still in shock at this moment; earlier, because she was worried about Chu Nan and the others pursuing Huo Zhen, she followed them.

She originally planned to see if she could assist opportunistically, but the battle of Chu Nan and the others was too terrifying. She fearfully realized that with her strength, there was no way to join the battle.

The Strong Race was encircling and killing the people of the Spirit Corpse Sect, and she didn't want to get involved, so she had to hide aside.

Afterward, she witnessed Chu Nan defeating Huo Zhen, Ji Tonggui, and the others, then being chased by Huo Qianshan, and finally, the appearance of the blood-crying python which made her tremble in fear.

She could only follow the crowd out of the Heaven-Shaking Secret Realm.

However, because her cultivation was too weak, she fell far behind, barely managing to escape just now.

After leaving the Heaven-Shaking Secret Realm, she found and joined the Huo Clan Martial Artists.

Despite having the Cyan Lotus Battle Body, she was isolated by everyone, so she could only sit alone in the corner, silently clutching a Storage Bag.

It was given to her by Chu Nan, containing thousands of spiritual stones.

With these spiritual stones, it was enough to elevate her cultivation to the ninth level of the Divine Illumination Realm, and perhaps it wouldn't take long to step into the Cloud Sea Realm!

She felt a profound gratitude toward Chu Nan, remembering deeply all the times he saved her and stood up for her.

She inexplicably felt a deep connection with Chu Nan, this bond made Huo Nianfang care for him the first time she met Chu Nan.

But now, Chu Nan had not emerged for a long time, and Huo Nianfang believed his fate to be grim, after all, the blood-crying python appeared in the Earth Cave, and Chu Nan was there at the time.

Even Huo Zun, a strong practitioner at the seventh level of the Cloud Sea Realm, did not escape, let alone Chu Nan of the Divine Illumination Realm?

"Chu Nan, rest assured, I've remembered the appearance of that Python Demon Beast, and once my cultivation is accomplished, I, Huo Nianfang, swear to avenge you!"

As Huo Nianfang secretly made up her mind, she felt a sense of melancholy and loss.

"Hey, Huo Nianfang, later you will lead us into the Heaven-Shaking Secret Realm,"

At this moment, several Martial Artists approached Huo Nianfang from behind, speaking in an unquestionable tone.

Huo Nianfang turned around, her eyebrows slightly frowning in confusion as she asked: "Elder Huo Jing, why do you want me to accompany you back to the Heaven-Shaking Secret Realm?"

As soon as she finished speaking, Huo Nianfang unconsciously took a step back.

Huo Jing, the newly promoted second level elder of the Cloud Sea Realm in the Huo Clan, became quite significant now that the mid-level strong practitioners in Qingxuan Province had perished.

At this moment, Huo Jing brought two first-level Cloud Sea Realm warriors, aggressively approaching Huo Nianfang, demanding that she enter the Heaven-Shaking Secret Realm.

Huo Nianfang felt that these people had ill intentions, three Cloud Sea Realm martial artists wanting a Divine Illumination Realm martial artist to lead the way, it was too outrageous.

The current Heaven-Shaking Secret Realm was not something a Divine Illumination Realm martial artist could venture into.

Clearly, these three wanted her to throw her life away!

"Hmph, you don't want to?" Huo Jing didn't answer Huo Nianfang's question but instead turned to question her.

Huo Nianfang's delicate brows furrowed as she knew she couldn't refuse. Over the years in the Huo Clan, she had gotten used to being oppressed by various Huo Clan members.

She had experienced such situations many times like the current one.

Though she was unwilling, she neither had the courage nor the strength to refuse, but this trip could spell doom, and her vow for vengeance for Chu Nan didn't want her to die without clarity.

Thus, Huo Nianfang struggled, saying: "Elder, you've been into the Heaven-Shaking Secret Realm. I'm just a Divine Illumination Realm martial artist, aren't there stronger Divine Illumination Realm practitioners present here, why must you choose me?"

There were dozens of Divine Illumination Realm martial artists here, some of them young descendants of the Huo family, while most were elderly Divine Illumination Realm martial artists who end their lives in despair of reaching Cloud Sea.

Their cultivation levels were generally above the seventh level of the Divine Illumination Realm, while Huo Nianfang was just at the fifth level, barely making it to the bottom.

Facing Huo Nianfang's rational questioning, Huo Jing showed a disdainful expression: "Taking you to the Heaven-Shaking Secret Realm was Elder Huo Tao's order, don't you dare disobey?"

As the suppression of the Cloud Sea Realm was released, Huo Nianfang groaned with a pale complexion.

Upon hearing Huo Tao's name, she immediately understood what was going on.

Huo Nianfang, although not a blood relation of the Huo family, possessed the Cyan Lotus Battle Body, the foremost talent, truly unique before Huo Lingjun!

Many people coveted her bloodline and talent, and if it weren't for Huo Mingxian's protection, her special physique would have long been taken by the Huo Clan members.

Even though it couldn't be forcibly taken, there were other ways to seize it, like the simplest and direct marriage alliance!

Huo Tao once tried this method to marry Huo Nianfang to his grandson to enhance his bloodline's talent, which, of course, was refused.

Thus, hatred and opportunistic revenge were reasonable and logical.

Thinking of all this, Huo Nianfang knew she couldn't refuse, so she could only sigh: "In that case, I'll go with you elders."

Huo Jing sneered, his eyes full of contempt.

So what if you have a special physique, when in the Huo Clan, a dragon coils, a tiger crouches!

"Alright, then you'll lead the charge, be the first to enter the secret realm," Huo Jing immediately ordered.

The three Cloud Sea Realm martial artists were glaring menacingly, intimidating Huo Nianfang.

Huo Nianfang nodded, preparing to put away the thousands of spiritual stones Chu Nan gave her and then enter the Heaven-Shaking Secret Realm.

However, this scene was caught by Huo Jing, who reached out to seize the Storage Bag from her hand, discovering the thousands of spiritual stones inside, and immediately questioned: "You actually have so many spiritual stones, where did you get them from?"

"Give it back!" Huo Nianfang's pupils shrank, and she quickly reached out to grab it back.

"How dare you act against me!" Huo Jing swung his large sleeve, directly pushing Huo Nianfang over ten meters away, rolling to the ground.

His heart was filled with greed, as the spiritual stones in this Storage Bag were numerous, and for Huo Jing, a newly promoted second-level Cloud Sea Realm martial artist, it was definitely a fortune!

The martial artists around glanced over and quickly looked away, not bothering at all.

"These spiritual stones were given by a friend, please return them, Elder!" Huo Nianfang immediately got up, refusing to give an inch regarding the ownership of these spiritual stones.

During the time in the secret realm, when Huo Zhen and Huo Yang took away the opportunities that belonged to her, Huo Nianfang endured it.

Being treated differently, she also endured it.

Being asked to return to the perilous Heaven-Shaking Secret Realm, Huo Nianfang gritted her teeth and still chose to accept it.

But now, Huo Jing wanted to take away the spiritual stones given to her by Chu Nan, and these spiritual stones were her hope to break through to the ninth level of the Divine Illumination Realm. She couldn't give them up no matter what.

Concerns about her own future, no matter how weak her character was, Huo Nianfang couldn't endure any longer at this moment!

"Hmph!" Faced with Huo Nianfang's demand, Huo Jing was dismissive: "Stop lying to me, who would give you spiritual stones in this world!"

"I see that these spiritual stones must have an improper origin, I'll keep them safe for now and adjudicate after returning to the clan."

After saying this, Huo Jing was about to put away the Storage Bag, ready to swallow up these spiritual stones.
