Chapter 521: Attack from the Dou Emperor Family

Having said that, the man continued, "Among those few, this strand of flame reacts most strongly to that kid; there must be an anomalous fire on his body."

The moment the former finished speaking, another figure suddenly appeared beside him.

Staring at the pitch‑black Space Wormhole, the man complained, "What the hell kind of mission is this? At last we can finish it. We were just staying peacefully within the clan, and now we're forced to hunt some cursed anomalous fire, making us run for so long."

"Stop the chatter, let's move quickly and not let those people get away. Otherwise we'll have to run even longer."

Seeing the former complain, the one who spoke first frowned.

After speaking, he plunged headfirst into the Space Wormhole before him.

"Hey, didn't we call others for support? The opponent has two Dou Lord elites protecting them."

Seeing the former's hurried demeanor, the remaining man shouted urgently.

As he spoke, he was just like the man in front.

He dove into the Space Wormhole, catching up with the former.

"Those guys don't even know where the lady sent them; waiting for them to arrive would be troublesome. Although the opponent has two Dou Lords protecting them, that kid with the anomalous fire is only a Nine‑Star Dou Sect member. When the time comes, I'll block those two Dou Lords for you, and you just grab the kid and run."

Hearing the former's suggestion, the other man immediately rejected it.

"Fine then."

Hearing that, the man thought for a moment, then nodded in agreement.

After all, what the former said made some sense.

The others are too far; waiting for them would have us two dry‑waiting ten days to half a month.

Anyway, they're far stronger than ordinary Dou Lords, so we might as well stick to the original plan and get the anomalous fire quickly.

While the two of them debated, ahead Lin Feng and his two companions seemed unaware of being followed, simply flying forward on their own.

After flying for several days, the three of them emerged from the Space Wormhole into a city.

Then, unlike before, they did not enter the city's Space Wormhole.

Instead, they resumed flying straight toward a scarcely trodden deep mountain forest.

"You two, come out; we've known you've been tailing us for a while."

After flying into a rarely visited mountain range, Lin Feng suddenly halted his flight, turned, and said,

"Swish!"

Before the former finished speaking, two figures hidden beneath black robes suddenly materialized from the void.

Then one of them abruptly charged straight at him.

The speed was such that even the Celestial Fire Sovereign was taken aback.

Because in his perception, the opponent was only a One‑Star Dou Lord.

But that speed was astonishingly fast.

The martial movement he employed was at least mid‑level Earth Tier.

As for the quick‑witted Xiao Yixian, she tried to step forward to help, but a Two‑Star Dou Lord blocked her.

Seeing that the target was himself, Lin Feng was suddenly startled.

He had thought the opponent was after Xiao Yixian's beauty or perhaps the wealth of the Earth‑Gang Sect.

But now it seemed neither was the case.

After all, the attack came straight at him.

Clearly, the target was himself.

Given the level of the opponent's martial movement, it didn't seem motivated by the Earth‑Gang Sect's assets.

While his mind raced, he hurriedly unfurled the celestial phoenix bone wings on his back.

"Faint Light, Flash!"

Reciting silently, he exerted his full strength in the martial movement, narrowly evading the opponent's strike.

"Heavenly Demon Phoenix Wings!"

Seeing the ten‑meter‑long bone wings behind Lin Feng, the two men remarked in surprise.

Immediately after, his brows tightened.

They hadn't expected the kid's speed to be so absurdly fast.

The surprise attack had failed; this would be troublesome.

"Family Crest, Activate!"

At that moment, the black‑cloaked man blocking Xiao Yixian let out a deep shout.

Then his hands suddenly formed a series of seal formations.

Along with the shifting seals, a strange family crest rapidly manifested on his forehead.

Simultaneously, after summoning the crest, his power surged dramatically.

In a flash, he leapt from a Two‑Star Dou Lord to a level comparable to a Five‑Star Dou Lord.

"Dou Emperor Family!"

The three of them were startled by the scene, exclaiming in shock.

Although Lin Feng didn't know which of the ancient Seven Clans these two belonged to.

But since they could wield a family crest, they must be from one of the Seven Clans.

At the same time, they were puzzled.

What had they done to suddenly attract the attention of the Dou Emperor family?

Weighing the pros and cons, Lin Feng quickly said, "Please, gentlemen, have mercy; we three don't know how we offended you, so we ask you to listen to us."

Hearing this, the two black‑cloaked men paused slightly.

They hadn't expected the opponent to realize so quickly that they were of an ancient race.

After all, on this Dou Qi Continent, ordinary Battle Lords have no idea about the specific information of the Dou Emperor families.

Since the other side could recognize him at a glance, their origins are probably not simple.

Thinking of this, the two of them stopped and stepped aside.

Immediately, the Second Star Battle Lord spoke: "Kid, hand over your Unusual Fire to us and we'll spare your life. Otherwise, since you know the Ancient Seven Clans, you should also know the fate of provoking us."

"Unusual Fire?!"

Hearing the other side directly demand his Unusual Fire, Lin Feng felt a sudden chill in his heart.

After all, being targeted by a top force on the Dou Qi Continent is no joke.

"Unusual Fire… they're leaving their little world to search the outside world for Unusual Fire—could it be the Yao Clan or the Yan Clan?"

After the panic, Lin Feng quickly speculated in his mind.

Among the Ancient Seven Clans, it should be the Yao Clan and the Yan Clan that most desire Unusual Fire.

And they are the biggest suspects.

"Kid, looking at you, you don't want to hand over the Unusual Fire, right? You should know the consequence of offending us."

Seeing the former remain silent, the Second Star Battle Lord threatened again.

"Hehe, the senior is joking; I'm just a minor Battle Sect, where would such Unusual Fire come from?"

Lin Feng forced his panic down and forced a grin as he spoke.

Seeing that Lin Feng still refused to obediently hand over the Unusual Fire, the First Star Battle Lord immediately snarled: "Kid, you still want to argue, we'll use the Golden Emperor Flame."

"Why are you spouting so much nonsense? We've already seen you use Unusual Fire before—hand it over quickly, or you'll die!"

Before the former could finish, the Second Star Battle Lord cut him off.
