323 I Was Clearly First!

At this time, whoever stood still would be an idiot!

Liu Yuan pulled Wei Feiyan with one hand and took out the Fire Repelling Pearl that he had prepared earlier from his sleeve with the other hand. He rushed toward the entrance of the forbidden area at the fastest speed. He did not even leave behind an afterimage and immediately teleported.

Boom…

As soon as they stepped through the door, the hot wind blew against their faces, bringing with it an aura that could instantly roast people, blowing their clothes up.

In the midst of the fluttering sounds, a layer of charred black had spread on the corner of Wei Feiyan’s clothes. Seeing that it was about to burn, she finally reacted and calmed down. She activated her cultivation technique and protected her whole body with spiritual energy.

The clothes on Liu Yuan’s body were still fine. After all, they were carefully prepared by Ning Xiangrong and had the special quality of being impervious to fire and water, so they could still hold on for a while.

However, all materials that were claimed to be ‘impervious to fire and water’ actually had an upper limit. Once the power of the ‘fire and water’ exceeded this limit, it would also be destroyed.

Especially when faced with the heavenly flames left behind by the Phoenix, no clothes would be able to last for long. It was only a matter of time before they disappeared.

However, Liu Yuan was already prepared. He injected spiritual power into the Fire Repelling Pearl in his hand, and it began to shine brightly.

In his field of vision, the blinding red light around him was forced back in an instant, and the flames rolled back, forming an empty area with a radius of 30 feet, revealing the original terrain.

Liu Yuan still refused to slow down. He carried Wei Feiyan and continued to speed forward. In the overwhelming red flames, he cut a straight line.

Wei Fei curled up in his arms and leaned against his chest. Her eyes were blurred. Thinking that his relationship with Liu Yuan had been known by her Master, she felt a sense of excitement, as if she had been caught having an affair.

Under the high-speed movement, her heart was beating faster and faster.

Master, it’s not that I want to do this, but you’ve never told me that liking someone is such a happy thing…

Her heart was filled with guilt, but there was also a feeling that she couldn’t stop.

Liu Yuan stared ahead and said in a low voice, “It might be a little difficult later. I’m going to go deep in first. The temperature in the forbidden area will be very high. You won’t be able to withstand it with your cultivation… I may not be able to take it, but it won’t last for long. As long as your Master and little Aunt-Master give up, we’ll go back immediately. I’ll give you the Fire Repelling Pearl at a place near the outside.”

The temperature of the surrounding flames was getting higher and higher, to the point that the flames were faintly penetrating the protective layer formed by spiritual power to the skin.

Wei Feiyan also felt a growing sense of danger. She pursed her lips and said, “It’s fine. But what will you do if you give me the Fire Repelling Pearl?”

Liu Yuan said indifferently, “Have you forgotten? I’m here to find the Phoenix blood. How can I find it in a place so close to the entrance? Of course, I have to go deep into it. Over there, it doesn’t matter if I have the Fire Repelling Pearl or not. Even the Fire Repelling Pearl can’t resist that kind of high temperature. If I can’t find the Phoenix blood, I’ll die.”

Wei Feiyan hugged him tightly, trying to leave the last bit of warmth. She said, “I’ll listen to you.”

Liu Yuan laughed. He felt that if the System was still fine, the girl in front of him would probably have maxed out on the favorability bar and reached a state of ‘Undying love’. Suddenly, he heard Xu Ping, who had caught up with him, say angrily, “You two, stop! Bastard! You actually lied to me for so long! You guys have been together for the past few days, do you feel happy lying to me?”

Wei Feiyan felt guilty again, but when she looked up at Liu Yuan, she felt that it was okay to die with him, so she said loudly, “Master, what feelings do you have for him? I feel the same! If you can leave the Mythical Flame Sect for him, so can I! But you don’t accept that I like him too. If it’s because you think it’s against ethics, I think I can like him more than you. I don’t care!”

Xu Ping choked for a moment and could only stomp her feet and curse, “Bastard! I like him, and you like him too. Do I have to be on your side?”

Wei Feiyan suddenly burst into laughter. “It turns out that Master is still jealous. Just like how you were jealous of little Aunt-Master a few days ago.”

Xu Ping did not expect his apprentice to be so bold as to bring this matter up. She blushed and said loudly, “Unfilial disciple! There’s no such thing!”

Jiang Miaoran, who had followed behind, said faintly, “Senior Sister, when did you get jealous of me?”

“N-no, I didn’t.” Xu Ping stammered in embarrassment.

When she thought about what she had said to her disciple: ‘I’ve already tasted what you haven’t gotten yet’… If her Junior Sister were to find out about this, she would feel goosebumps all over her body.

What was even worse was that this disciple who had heard this sentence had actually spoken before her!

It was like a slap to her own face when she said this. It was hard to imagine how Wei Feiyan felt at that time.

As long as she thought about how her disciple might treat her as a joke, Xu Ping wanted to hide in a ball and disappear.

Xu Ping even started to plead in her heart. Don’t, don’t let Junior Sister know…

“I’ve already tasted what you haven’t gotten yet~”

Things did not go according to her wishes. Wei Feiyan was indeed a little pervert, as recognized by Liu Yuan. At this moment of life and death, she became bolder and let herself go. In front of the four people present, she repeated Xu Ping’s words slowly. She even imitated the tone very well.

Even Liu Yuan was stunned.

At that time, he was in Jiang Miaoran’s room, so he naturally did not know what had happened next door. He never thought that Elder Xu would actually make such a comment.

Jiang Miaoran was taken aback, and her face turned red instantly. She could no longer maintain her stoic expression and said in disbelief, “Senior Sister, you…”

“Ahhh…” Xu Ping raised her chin and looked like he was about to cry. She barely managed to calm down and looked at her disciple with difficulty. “Feiyan, s-shut up…”

Wei Feiyan had been respectful to Xu Ping since she was young. Now that she had the chance to bully her Master, her face was full of excitement. “Master, you’ve taught me to be honest since I was a child. Why don’t you face yourself when it comes to your own side?”

Jiang Miaoran’s doubtful eyes, Wei Feiyan’s bright eyes, and Liu Yuan’s interested gaze were all on her.

Xu Ping gritted her teeth and closed her eyes, her last bit of shame fading away. “Yes! I’ve said this before, I’m jealous, I just want him all to myself!”

Jiang Miaoran’s last bit of trust in her Senior Sister completely crumbled. She looked at her Senior Sister and her Junior Niece, and said helplessly, “How can you do this? I was clearly first!”

The little loli felt wronged. She was clearly the one who had been with Liu Yuan the earliest, but something had happened between her and the two of them.

She looked at Xu Ping and said, “Senior Sister, so you’ve always been jealous of me. You’ve always given in to me.”

Xu Ping turned her head and said, “This one is different… Besides, I thought you already knew, so you’re just snatching him from me.”

The two of them looked at each other. How did this misunderstanding come about?

Of course, it was because of a certain someone!

They turned their heads in anger, only to find that Liu Yuan had already taken the opportunity to speed up and rush into the depths of the forbidden area.

Xu Ping’s face turned pale and he shouted, “Come back! That’s not a place you can enter with your cultivation!”

“Even the Fire Repelling Pearl can’t withstand such a high temperature…” Jiang Miaoran said anxiously.

Liu Yuan had already thrown all caution to the wind. He laughed and said, “One must be happy to the fullest in life. We shouldn’t live with regret. Stop quarreling. If you have anything to say, wait until I come back alive and tell me!”
