I don’t know how long he had slept, but a loud explosion like thunder woke Sun Huo up from his sleep. His instinctive jump almost made him lose his balance in the chair and fell backwards. A double shock.
Down, the heart in the chest began to beat rapidly.
What is the situation? Is it possible that there will be someone in the sect who is so bold as to attack the protective/magic circle he has set up for no reason? An incredible suspicion immediately appeared in Sun Huo's mind.
Just when Sun Huo was still wondering if he was having auditory hallucinations due to too much thinking and planning, he clearly heard several crashes and explosions again. Although it was not as loud and shocking as at the beginning, it was obvious that this sound was
Someone was fighting outside his magic circle.
Thinking of this, Sun Huo was suddenly speechless. The territory in the sect is so large, and he has to go to his private house to take action wherever he wants. Once something goes wrong, he, the master, will not be able to escape from it.
Even though his rest was disrupted by this unexpected disaster and he was in a bad mood, Sun Huo still felt a little bit lucky in his heart. If he hadn't followed the arrangement and reminded him to set up the magic circle as soon as possible, he would have attacked with the same force as before.
With such momentum, it is impossible to say that he will be buried here with the house in his sleep without any precautions.
If Sun Huo had encountered this reaction before receiving the order, he would have been furious and rushed out immediately to catch these "murderers" and have a "reason" with them, but now he has restrained himself a lot and still stood there without taking any action.<
/p>
No matter when something big happens, you must not show panic on the outside, and you must pretend to be calm and steady when you are trying to hold on, because you have a "backer", and you must not weaken that person's reputation in your words and deeds.
.This is one of the conclusions Sun Huo came to after thinking about it before.
He raised his hand and wiped it on his face, then gave his waist a hard squeeze to clear his mind, and then Sun Huo walked out with a gloomy face.
When he walked out of the house and into the courtyard, he raised his head and looked up at the sky. The scene in front of him shocked Sun Huo.
There were not many people fighting, and there were only two people with their weapons hovering in mid-air. However, the positions where they faced each other were not at the same height, but were obviously higher and lower. More importantly, he was both at the same height.
I know you.
The person in the high position was the silver-haired young man who almost killed Sun Huo in the trial. At this moment, he was holding a very beautiful white long bow in his hand. The whole body of the bow was crystal clear, as if it was made of a whole piece of cold water.
It is carved from ice, and there are countless hexagonal spar-like protrusions on the surface, which shine with an incomparably bright luster under the sunlight. Even the matching bow strings are extraordinary. If anyone
When you look closely, you can see that it is also dotted with snowflake-like patterns.
In Sun Huo's eyes, such a bow does not feel like a magical weapon, but an ice sculpture of art. It seems that its correct function is to be used for display, appreciation or play. But in fact, this bow is so powerful
place, but it was far beyond his imagination.
The young man seemingly casually put his hands together and pulled lightly, and the snowflake-like patterns on the bowstring instantly lit up. A white arrow condensed with spiritual power appeared in his hand, and then it shot out.
The next moment, the white arrow suddenly exploded after flying five or six feet away, turning into countless white snowflakes and rushing towards the opposite side.
At the same time, the person below who was trying to resist this wave of attacks was none other than Mu Xin, who had come for some reason. In his hand, he not only held a thorn vine about a foot long, but also a half-man tall man.
The wooden square shield is suspended in front of you.
Logically speaking, Snowflake should be a very gentle and non-threatening existence, but Sun Huo unexpectedly saw that there were many small cuts on the surface of the square shield, and Mu Xin's expression was solemn and not relaxed at all, and even exposed
Half of the face is still a little pale.
Seeing the same blizzard coming again, Mu Xin shouted and swung his right hand forward. A layer of green light lit up on the thorns and vines, and then countless spiky shadows appeared.
Shoot out.
Accompanied by a series of slight crackling sounds, so many spikes only offset the length of the snowstorm by less than half, and then it hit Mu Xin's square shield without any obstruction.
At this moment, Mu Xin suddenly felt a hot breath suddenly burst out from behind him. Then he saw a flaming sword flying in front of him like a swimming fish, and rushed to confront the remaining ones.
The wind and snow slashed out.
Silently, the blazing flames rising from the long sword condensed instantly, and then turned into another flaming sword with almost the same appearance and rushed straight forward. And with this blow, all the fire on the original sword body was extinguished.
The ground stayed where it was, and there was no longer any breath of high temperature.
Immediately afterwards, some strange scenes appeared.
When the blizzard and the flaming sword collided, a white mist suddenly rose up and spread quickly to the surrounding areas.
I don’t know who cast the spell to trigger it. When a strong wind blew away the white mist, the snowflakes and flaming sword in the air disappeared without a trace, as if they had never appeared.
At this time, Sun Huo had already arrived in front of Mu Xin with his weapon. However, instead of using Su Hongying's fire cloud, he stepped on the low-level disc uniformly distributed by the sect and reached out to hold the hilt of the sword.
Take it back.
Because of their different identities, and the fact that he almost killed himself without mercy during the trial, it can be said that Sun Huo did not have the slightest fondness for this person, but due to the situation, it was not easy for him to retaliate.
"What are you here for?"
Staring coldly at the silver-haired boy opposite him, Sun Huo asked in a deep voice, neither saying hello nor using honorifics. Then he turned back and gave Mu Xin a reassuring look.
Now Sun Huo has understood that it was Mu Xin who blocked the silver-haired boy's unexplained attack for him. Although it was not necessary for him to do so, after all, the function of the magic circle was protection. If it was not allowed to be touched by foreign enemies, wouldn't it be useless?
A display of meaning.
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading!
It's just that the magic circle can block external attacks, but it cannot completely isolate interference. Otherwise, it will not have a warning effect and you will not be awakened. So even if you don't know whether you are in a private house or whether you are doing something important,
Unable to separate himself, Mu Xin immediately thought of protecting himself. How could he not accept such a kindness and keep it silently in his heart?
"Why, we are all disciples who are under Fire Cloud Peak. Can't I come to contact my junior brother and express feelings?"
Seeing the appearance of Sun Huo, the silver-haired boy temporarily stopped attacking. As if he couldn't see the faces of the two people opposite him, he raised his chin slightly, showing a bit of arrogance that was inconsistent with his young appearance, and responded somewhat rudely.
Tao.
Slightly narrowing his eyes and looking at the other party, he was actually a little surprised. It was not because his attack was neutralized, but because Sun Huo was upright and calm at this moment. Facing himself, he exuded a kind of confidence and confidence.
His calm and calm temperament is completely different from the embarrassment and embarrassment he had when he was being hunted.
"Is it possible that the way Huo Yun Peak disciples/disciples usually communicate with each other is to come up and directly attack the other party's cave?" Without much hesitation, Sun Huo immediately took up the topic and asked.
"What's all the fuss about this? I don't know if you are really in this cave. But now that I'm here and I see your palace-protecting formation is so extraordinary, I can't help but be itching to give it a try. Wan
If the first one is a fake that doesn't look good, wouldn't it be a good choice for junior brother to eliminate hidden dangers?" The silver-haired boy was slightly startled, as if he didn't expect that Sun Huo would bite his words and intended to use the topic, but his eyes rolled.
After a few moments, he said nonchalantly.
Hearing this, Sun Huo's pupils shrank slightly. Not only did he not feel the secret joy of catching the other party, but he became very wary.
Because this scene was so familiar. It was almost a replica of when he faced Su and Mu. Even the words of denial were very similar, except that the positions of the two parties had been swapped. Especially the sentence "fake", Sun
Huo didn't know if he was being overly concerned or if this was the case. He always felt that the other party was alluding to his identity intentionally or unintentionally.
"Sun believes that he still has some eyesight in appraising treasures and objects, so I won't bother you. Since you and I have already communicated, please come back if you have nothing else to do. I won't send you far away."
After saying this, Sun Huo turned around and prepared to return to his private residence. Intuitively, he knew that the origin of this young man was not simple. Without knowing his background at all, if he had been entangled with him for a long time, he was afraid that his words would be wrong, so he had to send him away as soon as possible.
It’s safer.
"Wait a minute, who told you that the exchange has ended?" The young man's tone of voice had an unquestionable tone.
"Do you have anything else to advise?"
Sun Huo raised his head slightly, and there seemed to be sparks bursting out between his eyes. He had already expected that the other party would not let him get away so easily, and he should not have to bear to show weakness here.
After he appeared, Mu Xin actually cooperated without saying a word and did not show up again. I don't know if he believed that Sun Huo could handle it well, or because he felt that he was too weak to intervene.
"The last time we competed there was no winner, so there must be a result today." Staring into Sun Huo's eyes, the young man spoke clearly.
At this moment, Mu Xin seemed to have thought of something, and suddenly turned his head to look at Sun Huo in astonishment.
Sun Huo's eyebrows twitched slightly, but he still looked as if nothing had happened and said calmly:
"I won't fight you."
Hearing this, the silver-haired boy couldn't help but feel a little dazed. In his opinion, since he was the one who started the trouble, and Sun Huo's attitude was more forceful than before, it would be logical for him to agree to it so that he could save his face, but he didn't.
Thinking of it, he actually refused.
"Are you giving in to me?" After being absent-minded for a while, he asked again with some doubt.
"Admit defeat? You are overthinking. I am neither the teaching elder of the Immortal Art Tower nor the supervising and sparring partner of the Fighting Stage. Why should I accept the challenge from just anyone? Only a fool would do such a useless thing.
”
The silver-haired boy's face turned a little red, because just now Sun Huo couldn't help but shamelessly refused to fight, and even scolded himself in a roundabout way. Even Mu Xin raised the corners of his mouth slightly, wanting to smile but couldn't show it.
"Then you are saying that as long as there are enough benefits, you are willing to compete with me?" The silver-haired boy said somewhat viciously, without even bothering to act like an immortal cultivator.
"You can consider it." With just four words, Sun Huo didn't say it completely.
The silver-haired boy was overjoyed and said without hesitation, "Well, as long as you can catch my arrow head-on without dodging, I will grant you any favors you want."
He agreed so readily, which made Sun Huo murmur in his heart, making his judgment about the silver-haired boy a little more uncertain. He couldn't be sure whether the other person had ulterior motives for pestering him or just for the sake of hunting.
I want to defeat myself.
"No, this is too dangerous!"
At this time, Mu Xin finally stood up and stopped him.
It was precisely because when he came to look for Sun Huo, he saw the power of the silver-haired boy when he shot an arrow to attack the formation from a distance, so he rushed over to stop him without saying anything. If the same arrow hit someone, then
The consequences are unimaginable.
"It's okay, Brother Mu." Sun Huo handed the Lingyan Sword to his left hand and suddenly raised his arms, stopping Mu Xin from approaching him. Then he looked at the silver-haired boy with deep eyes and continued, "I believe this friend will have
Proportionate.”
Yes, it is of course very dangerous to propose such a test method. He has experienced it personally once, and there seems to be a sharp pain in his forehead. However, at this moment, Sun Huo also made his own decision.
No matter who this silver-haired boy is, if he can't even catch an arrow from the sect's disciple/Zixun who comes to challenge him, then how can he have the face to participate in the so-called Three Sects Sword Trial Conference? Instead of losing to others when the time comes.
, I was defeated and humiliated on the spot, and it is not unfair to die under the opponent’s arrow now.
"It's just to resist an arrow. I can agree to compete with you. But after everything is over, I want the bow in your hand." Looking into the young man's eyes, Sun Huo stated his request firmly.
"This is impossible." The young man's face suddenly changed. "Don't you think your request is really a big ask of a lion? It's just a competition, not a bet. You just want my personal magic weapon as a reward. Not to mention what's on your body.
There is no ice attribute breath at all. Even if you get this ice bow, you will not be able to control it and exert its true power."
Such a reaction was naturally expected by Sun Huo, but it was not unreasonable for him to put it forward as a condition.
"This bow of yours is so exquisitely crafted that it hardly looks like a magic weapon. Even if you can't use it, you can keep it and appreciate it. If it were me, I wouldn't give it to others easily. So,
What I want is to lend me the bow behind you for a month to enjoy, how about it?"
Sun Huo smiled slightly and finally revealed his purpose. At the same time, Mu Xin and the silver-haired boy were both a little dumbfounded.
