363. Chapter 363: Please, Let Me Go
Su Chen thought it over and, not wanting them to feel so guilty, simply said it this way.
The two of them could naturally tell that Su Chen was only doing this so they wouldn't have a psychological burden, and they immediately respected Su Chen even more.
Although they had lived in Leiyin Mountain their whole lives, they had seen too many people who used favors as leverage, giving them a little benefit only to delusionally try to squeeze out all their value.
Thinking of this, Ano looked moved, her hands unconsciously clenching into fists as if she had made a great resolution.
She turned her head and looked at Sen earnestly; Sen seemed to sense something, frowned, but in the end, still nodded with a heavy expression.
"Brother, we are very grateful for your help. In the holy land of our Leiyin Clan, there is a Leiyin Holy Fire. It can refine Spirit Fire. If it is possible, we can take you there."
Ano said slowly.
Once these words were spoken, even the well-informed Luo Shen could not help but be secretly shocked.
Legend has it that there is a great treasure in the Central Province, which is the Leiyin Holy Fire. It is extremely sacred within Leiyin Mountain, and to this day, no one knows where it is located.
But it is said that the Leiyin Holy Fire can refine Spirit Fire; low-grade Spirit Fire can even be directly upgraded by several levels, and even something at the level of Blue Quenching Spirit Fire would benefit greatly.
Not only that, it can refine a Martial Soul; even Su Chen's Divine Dragon Martial Soul would benefit greatly, and it would be even more beneficial for the refinement of this Dragon.
The Leiyin Holy Fire has been gestating for a thousand years, contains the power of thunder, and holds the laws of the Heavenly Dao; it has already existed for hundreds of thousands of years.
It is just that it is extremely mysterious; ordinary people simply cannot find any trace of it, and for a very long time, people even felt that the Leiyin Holy Fire was fabricated.
Never would they have expected that the Leiyin Holy Fire actually exists.
Thinking about it, the entire Leiyin Mountain is the carrier that gestates the Leiyin Holy Fire, and spirits like Ano and Sen were born under the influence of the Leiyin Holy Fire.
No wonder, no wonder those people could not find any trace of it.
When Xiao Ling had no resistance to the barrier of Leiyin Mountain back then, it was likely also because of the Leiyin Holy Fire within Leiyin Mountain.
"Will this have an impact on you?"
While Su Chen was tempted, he also noticed their hesitation just now.
If it required sacrificing the Leiyin Clan members, then this Holy Fire was not worth having.
The Leiyin Clan members were already in such a state; they could not take advantage of others' precarious position, otherwise, how would this be any different from the Sun Family and the Nangong Family? "There is none, it is just that this is a secret that our clan has guarded for generations, but our benefactor is different. We believe that our benefactor will absolutely not betray us."
Sen shook his head, flipped his robe, and knelt on one knee in a clean and swift motion, his head lowered in a posture of submission.
"Since we have already chosen to tell you, it means that our Leiyin Clan pledges allegiance to you, our supreme master."
As Sen's voice fell, Ano also knelt down in the exact same way.
"You all..."
Su Chen's heart was a mix of emotions, his Adam's apple rolling unconsciously, and he continued, "Rest assured, I will definitely not let down your trust."
As the words fell, Ano tugged at the corner of her clothes.
"Next, we are going to the Sun Family. Please let us also contribute our strength. A portion of our Leiyin Clan members were also captured by the Sun Family, and we want to take this opportunity to save them back."
Ano bit her lip, hesitated for a moment, and then spoke.
Su Chen had already helped them too much, and Ano did not want to continue troubling them, but relying solely on her own strength was too weak; following Su Chen, there was still a chance of success.
"We will not cause trouble; we will just take the opportunity to look for our companions. You don't need to worry about us; whether we live or die is up to Heaven's will."
Fearing that Su Chen would misunderstand that they wanted to use Su Chen and the others to save their clansmen, Ano hurriedly explained.
"Since you have already pledged allegiance to me, then saving your companions is naturally something I should do. When the time comes, just follow me; I will definitely find a way to save the remaining Leiyin Clan members back."
Su Chen smiled slightly; these spirits were truly simple and cute.
A drop of water in need shall be repaid with a spring. After hearing this, Ano nodded excitedly, her eyes filled with gratitude.
To avoid Sun Taohong's suspicion, the group only rested at the Nangong Family for one day before immediately embarking on the journey to the Sun Family.
Compared to the Nangong Family, the Sun Family was clearly much more vigilant, with strict guards and well-trained soldiers; they were completely incomparable to that bunch of show-offs at the Nangong Family.
However, those so-called cultivation levels were generally not high, and since it was just a wave of the hand, they were easily dealt with.
Su Chen walked in swaggeringly, his goal clear, and went straight to find Sun Taohong.
"Who are you people!? How dare you trespass..."
The lead guard saw Su Chen and the others being so open and aboveboard, immediately glared, sent his subordinates to stop them, and shouted loudly.
But the words stuck in his throat; before he could even finish speaking, the guards sent over were directly burned to ashes by Su Chen.
Those people didn't even have time to say a word before they immediately turned into dust, vanishing into thin air in the blink of an eye.
The leader's words were stuck hard in his throat, and his eyes gradually became terrified.
One must know that the cultivation of those guards just now was not low, yet they hadn't even touched a corner of Su Chen's clothes before being instantly killed.
"Who exactly are you!?"
The lead guard could not help but retreat a few steps, his gaze gradually carrying a bit of terror.
Su Chen curled his lips into a smile, looking extremely bewitching.
He raised his eyebrows and said with great dominance: "Take me to see your Head of the Family."
"Is our Head of the Family someone you can see just because you want to?"
The lead guard braced himself and drew his sword, looking at Su Chen vigilantly.
His cultivation was only at the Great Saint Realm, and he did not have full confidence in blocking Su Chen.
"If you refuse a toast, you will be forced to drink a forfeit!"
Seeing this situation, Su Chen could not help but snort coldly, his eyes gradually becoming icy, "Since that is the case, then don't blame me for being impolite."
As the words fell, the hand the lead guard was using to hold the sword instantly ignited with fierce flames.
The lead guard screamed in pain and instinctively wanted to extinguish the flames, but how could Blue Quenching Spirit Fire be an ordinary Spirit Fire?
His actions were of no avail at all.
"Ahhh! It hurts so much!"
The lead guard screamed in agony, rolling around non-stop, trying to extinguish the Spirit Fire.
"Are you going to take me to your Head of the Family or not?"
Su Chen looked down at the lead guard from above, feeling no pity for his pleas.
The lead guard gritted his teeth so hard that his lips bled, though it was unclear if it was from the pain or the backlash.
"If you don't want to lose your life right now, I advise you to be sensible."
Su Chen lazily let out a yawn.
The Sun Family guards must have done plenty of filthy deeds, so they were not worth his sympathy at all.
The lead guard would not yield, but Su Chen was not in a hurry, waiting quietly for his words.
In the end, the lead guard could no longer hold out and finally blurted out, "I'll talk, I'll talk, please, just spare me!" (End of chapter)
