"Pressuring the Xiao family is indeed one of the methods, but I'm afraid it's not suitable right now!"

Shi Zhi Yuan shook his head and said.

"Why?"

Shi Minghao frowned and asked.

"Ever since that scene a few days ago, all of the forces in Blazing Mountain were attracted. The situation there is a little complicated. The key point is that the dancers have always been very low-key. If we were to make a move on the Xiao family, I wonder what attitude the dancers would have? One must know that this was the Blazing Mountain, not the Cyanwood City. We've lost almost a third of our tolerance! "If we make a move now, once the Xiao family and the dancers join hands, we probably won't be able to get any benefits!"

Shi Zhiyuan said confidently and gave a detailed analysis. When Shi Minghao heard this, he nodded repeatedly.

Actually, they had always overlooked another existence in the Cyanwood City. It was the dancer. Ever since the dancer entered the Blazing Mountain, her movements had been extremely low-key, and they did not know where she was right now.

"In that case, we can only fight in Flame Valley!"

Shi Minghao pondered for a moment before speaking up. Shi Zhi Yuan's words had dispelled all thoughts of him making a move.

This trash had appeared out of nowhere and had experts protecting him. If he wanted to get rid of him, he could only attack the Xiao family from the east and the west.

"It seems that young master Ming Hao has also thought about it. When the time comes, everyone will be looking at the Saint Beast and the Wu family will not act against us for the sake of the Xiao family. Even the Xiao family will not act against our Shi family for the sake of a useless person." "When that time comes, it will be much easier to get rid of a piece of trash!"

Shi Zhiyuan wily said.

"Right now, we can only reduce the area around us to reduce the number of casualties!"

According to what Shi Zhiyuan said, there was only one way left. He never thought that this trash would actually have such an expert by his side. Thinking about this, Shi Minghao felt somewhat depressed.

"Young master is right. I will tell them to follow the team and reduce the casualties!"

Shi Zhiyuan cupped his hands together and left. As he watched Shi Zhi Yuan's departing back, Shi Minghao fell into deep thought.

After leaving the Xiao family's camp, Xiao Yuer went out to search for traces of Xiao Jiu. However, after walking for two days, she still didn't find any trace of Xiao Jiu.

In the depths of the Blazing Mountain, after leaving the forest, a beautiful figure flashed back and forth as she battled against a giant red python. That giant red python was emitting a fiery red poisonous gas, ordinary people would lose their lives if they breathed in even a little bit.

Xiao Yu'er held a golden dagger in her hands. With her Xuan Qi infused into it, the Mystical Gold Saber began to emit a golden light. Her current situation was not looking good.

However, the giant python in front of her was a Rank 4 Fire Python, and its entire body was emitting fire poison. With her current strength, she could deal with a Rank 3 Demonic Beast, but against a Fire Python that was covered in poison, she was not a match for it.

Right now, she didn't even have the chance to run. Meeting this Fire Python of the fourth step, her luck was extremely bad.

"Hiss …"

The Flaming Python's speed was extremely fast. It chased after Xiao Yu'er in the forest, and suddenly swung its tail, mercilessly slapping Xiao Yu'er on her body. Although Xiao Yu'er had used her profound energy to block the poison, her body received an extremely intense blow and was sent flying.

Actually, she was already exhausted. After fighting with the Fire Python for so long, she had no way to fight back or escape.

Xiao Yu'er was sent flying for over a hundred feet before she managed to stabilize herself. At this moment, she was half kneeling on the ground with one hand covering her chest. A mouthful of blood flowed from her mouth.

"Hiss, hiss, hiss …"

After sending Xiao Yu'er flying with a slap of its tail, the Flaming Python didn't stop. Before Xiao Yu'er could regain her senses, it pounced at her again.

When Xiao Yu'er saw this, she gritted her teeth and used her legs to jump into the air. With the Coldsteel Golden Saber in hand, she landed on the Flaming Python's body and stabbed it in.

However, this Flaming Python's body was extremely tough. Even if Xiao Yuer stabbed it with her dagger, it wouldn't harm it in the slightest. The only thing it did was cause sparks to fly off its scales.

Although she hadn't pricked the Fire Python, Xiao Yu'er had obviously pricked the Fire Python. Feeling the pain from his body, the Flaming Python swung its body like a madman. It exerted a little strength and flung Xiao Yu'er away.

Xiao Yu'er's body fell heavily onto the trunk of a large tree. Her injuries worsened, and this fall could be said to have left her in a terrible state. Her internal organs had all been dislocated.

"It's over, it's coming! Am I going to die here? "

Xiao Yu'er's small face paled and her ample chest rose and fell. She stared at the Flaming Python that was about to pounce on her, her eyes filled with despair.

This time, it was highly likely that she would die here. She discovered that it was simply impossible for her to defeat the Inferno Python, and she might not even be able to escape from it.

She was regretting that she hadn't stopped Xiao Jiu from coming to the Blazing Mountain. Her own cultivation was one of the top in the entire clan, and yet she was in such a sorry state at the Blazing Mountain without her cultivation.

She hoped that Mu Qingxue could properly protect him, but she knew that her little brother was a very stubborn type of person. She had already guessed that Xiao Jiu would reject Mu Qingxue's request.

"For Little Jiu, for Father and Mother, give it your all!"

Mu Qing Xue gripped her golden blade tightly as she stood up shakily. She had long since run out of oil and was on her last try. If that still didn't work, then she could only wait for death to descend upon her.

She focused the last of her mystical Qi on the Cold Iron Gold Saber and moved her feet towards the Flaming Python. After fighting with her for over an hour, the Flaming Python was completely unharmed.

This was his last attempt, and he hoped to injure the Fire Python.

Xiao Yu'er's body rose into the air once again. With the last of her strength, she landed on the Flaming Python's body. Her hand raised and the blade fell. A trace of blood finally appeared under the thick scales of the Flaming Python.

"Roar …"

This time, it was the Flame Python that was truly injured. However, this kind of injury only further angered the Flame Python, and did not have any substantial effect.

In the next moment, the Flaming Python finally went crazy. Xiao Yu'er was still thrown off by it.

Xiao Yu'er landed on the ground, her gaze focused on the Flaming Python. This was the last time she would be able to break through its defenses, and even injuring the Flaming Python would be extremely difficult, let alone killing it.

Xiao Yu'er wiped away the blood at the corner of her mouth. Her face was pale as she looked at the giant python coming at her. Her heart felt as though it was on the verge of death. She slowly closed her eyes.

"Xiao Jiu, father, mother, I can't see you one last time!"

She had her eyes closed, but she could still feel the Flaming Python's true intent towards her. She could still feel the approach of death.

"Ji …"

At this moment, a bird cry rang out, and the whole forest seemed to be lit up all of a sudden. When Xiao Yuer heard this cry, her heart trembled. She suddenly opened her eyes and saw a large snow-white bird in the sky. This bird was formed from ice and snow, but it emitted a snow-white flame. It was extremely strange.

This was a Vermillion Bird. Xiao Yu'er recognized it with a single glance. She wasn't unfamiliar with this scene. The person who had chased away the Dark Demon Wolf from the Xiao Clan's camp had released the image of a Vermillion Bird.

With such a Vermillion Bird hovering above Xiao Yu'er, the Flaming Python suddenly slowed down and eventually stopped. Its fiery red eyes flickered with intelligence as it looked at the illusory figure in the sky with fear in its huge eyes.

In the next moment, the python let out a low screech and turned its head, heading back into the forest. It had left just like that.

The Flaming Python was extremely bloodthirsty and cruel. Seeing that she was about to become its food and it actually retreated just like that, Xiao Yu'er felt that this was inconceivable. Her beautiful eyes were filled with disbelief.

In the next moment, the Vermilion Bird also disappeared and the entire forest returned to silence.

Xiao Yuer knew that her danger had been eliminated by now. She let out a breath of relief. She used her Spiritual Sense to search for that person, but she couldn't find any traces of other people.

It wasn't just the Flaming Python that left, but all of the demonic beasts nearby as well. Right now, she was absolutely safe. Xiao Yu'er knew that this was due to that person.

It was just that she could not understand why that person would so repeatedly help her without showing his face.

She found a place to sit down. Her gaze landed on a big tree. Her eyes lit up because she saw a small cloth bag at the top of the tree.

He opened the cloth bag and saw that there were actually some healing pills inside.

"Was it left behind by that person?"

A trace of hesitation flashed in Xiao Yu'er's eyes as the doubt in her heart increased. Why did this person keep helping him, but refused to show himself?

She picked up the cloth bag and swallowed the healing medicine.

In the short term, this place was definitely safe. He could feel the surroundings, and there weren't even any signs of movement. She could heal her wounds here, and only leave after her injuries had improved.

The healing medicine left behind by that person looked pretty good. It was even better than the healing medicine the Xiao family had collected.

After leaving the small forest, Xiao Jiu let out a sigh of relief. If Xiao Yu'er knew that not only did she cultivate the Dragon Tiger's Soul Art, but she also had an unheard-of Vermillion Bird, she would be in great trouble.

He knew his sister very well. After knowing about this, he would definitely ask her all kinds of questions. For the sake of unnecessary trouble, he decided not to reveal his identity.

Now that they were getting closer to Flame Volcano, it would only take them a day to get there. Right now, the interior of the Blazing Mountain was already surrounded by steam and the temperature was extremely high.

If he had entered the valley with his previous physique, he would have been burned to death before he could even reach Flame Valley.
