Chapter 1047 Ch 1047: Flame Heart Sect's Target

Although Ye Xiao saved Shu Xiang and managed to avoid demonic beasts' attacks, however, he and Shu Xiang still fell to the ground and suffered some minor scratches on their bodies.

Ye Xiao stood up. At some point, an Energy Spear had already appeared in his hand. With a wave of his arm, he smashed the spear upward. The sharp tip of the spear drew a perfect arc in the air. Surprisingly, the arc actually had a sliver of Destruction Law. This terrifying arc of destruction slipped past the demonic beasts.

Maybe those demonic beasts already sensed the threat from Ye Xiao's attack, they wanted to avoid his attack as they started retreating.

However, how could they dodge the attack executed by Ye Xiao so easily? Two of them were still affected.

They didn't even notice when, but their body actually started dismantling into ashes slowly from top to bottom as they soon disappeared into thin air. This was all because of the Destruction Law. They were completely destroyed, even their souls were destroyed.

Taking advantage of this opportunity, Ye Xiao and Shu Xiang stood up one after another, and Shu Xiang retreated.

Because everything happened too quickly, she was unable to see when Ye Xiao killed those two demonic beasts by making use of the Law of Destruction.

But she was still shocked, for she could not understand how Ye Xiao appeared in front of her and saved her.

Ye Xiao was still far when she was attacked by demonic beasts, but in an instant, he was in front of her. It was as if he teleported.

Shu Xiang's pair of cold and beautiful eyes gave Ye Xiao a deep look, but she did not say anything arrogant like before. After all, if Ye Xiao did not save her in time, the consequences would have been unimaginable.

Lan Xiang was already busy fighting a few demonic beasts on her own. Thus, even though she managed to warn her senior sister, she was unable to do anything. She didn't even see what happened just now.

After exchanging a few fierce moves with those demonic beasts, when she turned her head, she was surprised to see Shu Xiang staring at Ye Xiao with deep gazes.

She frowned at first and she was also confused as to how Ye Xiao appeared beside her senior sister. She also could not understand how Shu Xiang managed to avoid those demonic beasts' attacks!

But then again, she ignored what happened in this short period of time. Instead, the corner of her mouth curled up when she saw Shu Xiang staring at Ye Xiao intently.

Avoiding the demonic beasts who, for some reason, didn't continue to attack her and were instead looking at Ye Xiao, she arrived beside her senior sister and asked what happened just now.

From her, she got to know that Ye Xiao saved Shu Xiang's life at a critical moment.

"Roar! Roar!"

Although the two girls didn't see how two demonic beasts died, those demonic beasts did see the previous event.

Maybe, the death of their comrades angered them, the group of demonic beasts roared loudly and charged toward the three of them. They looked ferocious and terrifying.

"Sir Ye, thank you for saving my senior sister!"

Lan Xiang looked at Ye Xiao with her beautiful eyes and thanked him on behalf of Shu Xiang.

"Now is not the time to talk about this. Let's get rid of these demonic beasts first!"

Ye Xiao held the energy spear in his hand and stood upright. When the demonic beasts came, Ye Xiao's body moved. He stepped out and sharp spear light kept stabbing out, clashing with the group of demons.

Lan Xiang and Shu Xiang naturally joined the battle.

After ten minutes, with Ye Xiao's help, they managed to deal with all the demonic beasts. Now, all those demonic beasts had already turned into cold corpses, lying in a pool of blood.

Ye Xiao had killed eight demonic beasts by himself and all of them were killed in one shot. This caused Lan Xiang and Shu Xiang to feel surprised.

Especially Shu Xiang. She had looked down on Ye Xiao before, but at this moment, there was only shock in her heart. However, on the surface, Shu Xiang still looked as cold as before.

Perhaps in her heart, Ye Xiao still could not be compared with the geniuses of those top powers.

"Sir Ye, your spear technique is so powerful. I'm really impressed!" Lan Xiang put away the longsword in her hand and smiled at Ye Xiao.

"You flatter me." Ye Xiao said faintly.

"These demonic beasts have delayed us for some time. Let's hurry up. I have a feeling that the Immortal Source should be in that direction."

Shu Xiang said. She only had one goal, and that was Immortal Source.

In fact, every single person who entered Immortal Water Lake had the same goal. They all wanted to get their hands on the Immortal Source.

"Let's go."

After killing these demonic beasts, Shu Xiang did not reject Ye Xiao. However, the two of them still did not communicate.

"Stop!"

They have only walked some distance when a cold voice suddenly transmitted over from a certain direction.

The three of them stopped at the same time and looked in the direction where the voice came from. They saw a dense forest not far away.

Ten silhouettes walked out from the forest. The murderous aura on their bodies was terrifying. All of them looked at Ye Xiao with cold eyes. One of them said, "You crippled and seriously injured disciples of my Flame Heart Sect. Now, let's see where you can run to!"

The ten of them arrived and instantly surrounded Ye Xiao and the other two disciples.

"Why should I escape?"

Looking at the arrival of people from the Flame Heart Sect, an indifferent smile emerged on Ye Xiao's face. His eyes were also indifferent, as if he was looking at some insignificant people.

"Don't talk nonsense with him. Everyone, let's show him, who doesn't know the difference between life and death, how it feels to die in pain!"

Another person from the Flame Heart Sect spoke in a domineering tone.

In the next moment, the aura on his body burst forth violently. Following him were other disciples of the Flame Heart Sect. Each and every one of them revealed their own weapons, ready to attack and kill Ye Xiao!

As they attacked, cold lights kept flashing one after another, slashing at Ye Xiao's body. Each strike had the power to kill any Early Immortal King and seriously injured a Mid Stage Immortal King.

Although they attacked Ye Xiao, however, these Flame Heart Sect disciples didn't dare to touch Lan Xiang and Shu Xiang. All of their attacks were deliberately avoided.

The Heaven Shrouding Sect was an extremely mysterious force. Although there were not many disciples in the sect, it was one of the top forces in the entire world. Heaven Shrouding Sect's strength was far above their Flame Heart Sect, so they naturally wouldn't dare to provoke them.

"Enough!"

When the elites of the Flame Heart Sect's attacks were about to approach Ye Xiao's body, a cold voice was transmitted over, instantly freezing the attacks of the disciples of the Flame Heart Sect.

The person who spoke was Shu Xiang!

"Miss Shu Xiang, do you have any advice for me?" The Flame Heart Sect leader's eyes slightly narrowed as he asked Shu Xiang.

"This person is now traveling with us. I will not allow you to hurt him." Shu Xiang's pair of cold eyes swept across the people of Flame Heart Sect and said coldly.

"This person has injured two of our disciples. He is someone that the Flame Heart Sect must kill. It would be inappropriate for Miss Shu Xiang to protect him like this."

Hearing Shu Xiang, the disciples of the Flame Heart Sect started hesitating. But still, one of them gathered his courage and said with a slightly unwilling expression.

"I do not wish to repeat my words a second time. You can think about it if you want to!" Shu Xiang seemed to be too lazy to talk nonsense with these people and said coldly. Her voice was forceful.

"Since that is the case, then we will temporarily not touch this person on account of Miss Shu Xiang. If Miss Shu Xiang and Miss Lan Xiang are not travelling with this person, we, Flame Heart Sect, will definitely kill this person. I hope that the two of you will not interfere."

After hearing Shu Xiang's powerful words, the expression of the leading expert from the Flame Heart Sect became slightly ugly but they had no choice but to compromise.

In the world of martial arts, strength was the most important. The Heaven Shrouding Sect's strength was stronger than their Flame Heart Sect, and Lan Xiang and Shu Xiang's status in their sect was not low at all. Hence, they did not dare to offend the two girls.

Shu Xiang's pair of cold eyes swept across these people's bodies and did not say anything, as if she approved of what those people said.
