That night, Su Ye moved out of the dungeon and returned to his father's former residence. The courtyard was overgrown with weeds, and the traces of the battle three years ago could still be seen on the walls—this was where his father was attacked and killed.
He sat cross-legged in the courtyard, holding the flame seed fragment in his hand, and began to practice the Heavenly-Burning Flame technique according to the inheritance runes. The golden-red spiritual energy in the air rushed towards him, and the flame meridians in his body buzzed and operated, refining the spiritual energy into flame power.
Suddenly, a cold wind blew, and a black shadow quietly appeared behind Su Ye, holding a poisonous dagger, stabbing straight at the back of his head!
"Who?!" Su Ye reacted instantly, and the golden-red flames burst out from his body, forming a flame shield behind him.
"Clang!" The poisonous dagger stabbed the flame shield, making a harsh sound, and the black shadow was bounced back a few steps. He raised his head, revealing a pale face, and his eyes were filled with blood-red light—that was the unique mark of the Demon Race's spies!
"You are the one who killed my father back then?" Su Ye's eyes turned red, and the golden-red flames around him became more and more intense. He recognized this person—he was a servant next to Su Zhenhai, and he had also participated in the siege of his father three years ago.
"The lowly son of a traitor, dare to talk to me like that?" The black shadow sneered, and his body suddenly swelled, his skin turning black, and sharp claws grew from his fingers—he had activated the Demon Race's transformation technique, and his cultivation had reached the Fifth Realm of Qi Condensing!
"Impossible! How can a Demon Race spy have such a high cultivation in Canglan City?" Su Ye was slightly shocked, but he didn't flinch. He raised his palm, and the golden-red flame pattern surged, condensing into a huge flame blade.
"Die!" The black shadow roared, waving his sharp claws, and rushed towards Su Ye. The claws were wrapped in black demonic energy, which corroded the air and made a hissing sound.
Su Ye swung the flame blade, and the golden-red flame collided with the black demonic energy. There was a loud explosion, and the demonic energy was burned by the flame, emitting a pungent smell.
"The Heavenly-Burning Flame is indeed the bane of the Demon Race!" The black shadow's face changed, and he wanted to retreat.
"Now you want to run? It's too late!" Su Ye shouted, and the flame blade in his hand suddenly split into dozens of small flame blades, shooting towards the black shadow like rain.
The black shadow tried to block, but the flame blades were too fast. They pierced through his body, and the golden-red flames burned his demonic energy, making him scream in pain.
爆点:The Demon Race's spy suddenly attacked, revealing that the Demon Race had long infiltrated Canglan City, and Su Ye, in a life-or-death battle, broke through to the Second Realm of Qi Condensing and mastered the "Heavenly-Burning Flame Blade Rain" technique, killing the spy in one fell swoop.
With a loud roar, the black shadow's body turned into a ball of black smoke and dissipated, leaving only a black token on the ground. Su Ye picked up the token, and saw a strange pattern carved on it—it was the symbol of the Demon Race's "Dark Moon Sect".
At this moment, the flame meridians in his body suddenly surged, and a more powerful flame power erupted from his palm. He felt that his cultivation had broken through—the Second Realm of Qi Condensing!
"The battle with the Demon Race spy actually made me break through?" Su Ye's eyes lit up. He clenched the token in his hand, his heart full of determination: the Demon Race, the Dark Moon Sect, Su Zhenhai's accomplices... I will wipe them all out!
Suddenly, there was a knock on the door. Yun Xi stood outside the door, holding a bowl of medicinal soup, with a worried expression: "Su Ye, I heard the sound of fighting just now—are you okay?"
Su Ye opened the door, took the medicinal soup, and smiled faintly: "I'm okay, I just dealt with a small trouble. By the way, Yun Xi, do you know about the Demon Race's Dark Moon Sect?"
Yun Xi's face changed when she heard the name: "The Dark Moon Sect? That's a notorious Demon Race organization that specializes in sneaking into human cities to collect information and assassinate important figures. Three years ago, there were rumors that they colluded with someone in Canglan City..."
She didn't finish speaking, but Su Ye already understood. The person who colluded with the Dark Moon Sect was Su Zhenhai. And his father's death was not only a frame-up by Su Zhenhai, but also related to the Demon Race's invasion plan.
"The water in Canglan City is deeper than I thought." Su Ye took a sip of the medicinal soup, his eyes cold. "But no matter how deep it is, I will stir it up—until the truth comes out."
