Huo Ying withdrew his gaze, but just when he was about to say something more, his expression changed, which made the three elders on the side feel slightly shocked, and then they turned their gaze to where Huo Ying was looking.
Whoosh!
I saw a stream of light coming from far to near, and it also exuded a special fiery aura. Sensing this aura, the faces of all the Fire Holy Rat clan members, including Huo Ying and the third elder, became extremely respectful.
.
"Lord Patriarch!"
First, many saints on the periphery bowed and saluted. Many of the saints had fiery eyes. When they saw that majestic figure turning back and nodding, they felt great satisfaction.
It turns out that this figure that came from a distance is none other than Xumi, the contemporary leader of the Fire Sacred Rat Clan. Regardless of his status or cultivation and combat prowess, he is the well-deserved number one person in the Fire Sacred Rat Clan.
Compared with those saints who respected them from the bottom of their hearts, Huo Ying and the third elder were respectful on the surface, but deep down they had a strange thought. Especially Huo Ying, whose lowered head could not hide the irritation on his face.
.
Originally, Huo Ying wanted to wait a few more days. If the evil karma fire in Yan Lao did not disappear, Mu Ji would be more likely to be burned into a pile of ashes. Even if the clan leader came back, things would be different.
It's a foregone conclusion and can't be changed anymore.
"Chief, why are you back?"
However, it was naturally impossible to express these thoughts in Huo Ying's heart. He took a few steps forward, first bowed respectfully to Xumi, and then asked, which was also what made him quite confused.
Huo Ying knew that when the patriarch left his clan to do something big, the time it would take would not be too short, it might take as long as half a year or even a year.
But it has only been a short time now, more than two months at most, and the clan leader has returned to the clan. If this trip had not been extremely smooth, there would be only one reason left.
"Hmph, if the Fourth Elder hadn't sent me an urgent message, I'm afraid you guys would have caused a huge commotion in this Fire Palace!"
Looking at the second elder, whom he had always placed high hopes on, a look of anger appeared on Xumi's face. In fact, he had indeed received a flying letter from the fourth elder, so he hurried back.
As the leader of the Fire Sacred Rat Clan, Xumi clearly knows that since the incident happened twenty years ago, there has been a deep rift between the First Elder Mu Ji and the Second Elder Huo Ying.
Fortunately, in the past twenty years, because Mu Ji kept a low profile, he and Huo Ying did not have any substantial conflicts until the one more than two months ago.
To be honest, Xumi has always felt a little guilty towards the elder about that incident. If Huo Ying hadn't been holding on to him and there were clan rules, he might have turned a blind eye.
It's not a big deal.
He originally thought that after he suppressed the incident that day, the two elders would not conflict again for his own sake, but he did not expect that such a big incident would occur while he was away.
From the flying letter sent by the fourth elder, Xumi knew that the old rift between the two elders was rekindled, and the commotion this time was so big that they wanted to fight to the death.
Both Mu Ji and Huo Ying are the absolute pillars of the Fire Sacred Rat Clan. Whichever party has an irreversible ending will be unacceptable to Xumi. He will never allow such a thing to happen.
Therefore, no matter how important the thing he wanted to do after leaving the clan this time was to give up and rush back to the clan, he still had a faint worry in his heart, fearing that if he rushed too slowly, he would still be a step too late.
"Clan leader, you can't blame the second elder for this. It's the elder who misses his daughter so much that he kills people and breaks into jail. He..."
Hearing that the clan leader's tone was somewhat unkind, the third elder on the side was eager to show off in front of Huo Ying and immediately spoke out. However, before he finished speaking, he saw the clan leader cast a cold look at him.
"Did I ask you?"
As the contemporary patriarch of the Fire Sacred Rat Clan, Xumi is naturally very authoritative. Even Huo Ying had to pay three respects. At this moment, he glared and spoke cold words, which immediately made the three elders stunned.
Dare you say more.
"Huo Ying, tell me!"
After frightening the third elder, Xumi turned his attention back to Huo Ying. This attitude of calling him by his first name made the latter feel shuddered, secretly thinking that this time the clan leader was probably really angry.
"Clan leader, what the third elder said is right. Originally, I wanted to find an opportunity to release Wen Zhao and reunite their father and daughter. I didn't expect that the first elder would be so eager to kill the guards and force his way into the fire prison. This is against the clan rules.
A great sin!"
Huo Ying's eloquence was excellent, and he did not worry about the identity of the clan leader like the third elder. These eloquent words made Xumi's brows furrowed tightly, and the worry in his heart became a little more intense.
From the flying letter sent by the fourth elder, it was definitely impossible to say something like Huo Ying's, so Xumi didn't know too well. He just hurried back to prevent the two elders from getting into trouble.
But if what Huo Ying said is true, then Xumi really has no way to favor Mu Ji. Not only did he violate the clan rules and force his way into the prison, but he also killed the guard. This is simply arrogance without any regard for the clan rules.
.
However, as the leader of the Fire Sacred Rat Clan, Xumi naturally cannot accept one side of the story, and he knows that these two elders have always had many conflicts, and they must face each other in order to find out the truth.
"Open the Fire Prison!"
After these thoughts passed through his mind, Xumi did not talk nonsense to Huo Yingduo, but stretched out his hand and pointed towards the flaming prison door that exuded a trace of blazing heat.
As soon as these words came out, Huo Ying and the third elder couldn't help but look at each other, but they also knew that after the patriarchs had spoken, there was no point in guarding the fire prison and not opening it.
Fortunately, seven days have passed now. Huo Ying believes that no matter how tyrannical Mu Ji is, he may have been roasted into a rat and dried up. This biggest threat will no longer exist.
The most important thing is that once a few people in Yan Lao die, Huo Ying's plan will no longer be in danger of being exposed. He wanted to hold on for a few more days just to ensure that nothing went wrong.
"Yes, patriarch!"
Therefore, Huo Ying did not neglect too much. He walked to the door of Yanlao in a few steps, looked at the keys that had not been burned by the fire of the evil karma, and then stretched out his hand to turn them one by one.
Click! Click! Click!
Three soft sounds were heard in a row, and the door of the Flame Prison made of Xuanshui Stone suddenly trembled. Just when Mu Ying was about to open the door upwards, something unexpected happened.
Bang!
A loud noise was heard coming from the inside of the Flame Prison, and then the already opened cell door turned upwards, and finally opened with an extremely strong force, knocking out the few people outside.
They were all shocked.
Especially Huo Ying, the initiator of this matter, his face undoubtedly became extremely ugly at this moment, because he knew clearly that this was not the door of the Fire Prison that he opened, but a majestic force inside that opened it.
In Huo Ying's heart, Huo Ji, his daughter, and Yun Xiao in the Yan Prison have already been burned to death by the fire of the evil karma. Even if they are not reduced to ashes, they will be turned into a few dried meats. How can they still make a sound?
What about such great power?
It was obvious that the changes that occurred at this time were very different from what Huo Ying had previously thought. He suddenly discovered that his flawless plan this time, which even included Mo Xun, might fall short again.
But Huo Ying couldn't figure out how Mu Ji and the others could still be alive under the fire of such evil karma. Are there really immortal people in this world?
It's a pity that Huo Ying didn't know that as early as seven days ago, the evil karma fire in Yan Lao had disappeared due to Yun Xiao's desperate efforts.
Moreover, during these seven days, Mu Ji also replenished the demon pulse energy he had consumed, and was waiting for the opening of the Flame Prison Door in full strength.
In addition to the fact that Mu Wenzhao was still in an extremely special state, Mu Ji had already made preparations. This was also the reason why he broke out of the Flame Prison door the moment he sensed it opening.
Whoosh!
Two figures rushed out from the flame prison, causing the expressions of Huo Ying and the third elder outside to change drastically. On the other hand, Xumi, as the clan leader, was surprised and happy. This was obviously the result he wanted to see the most.
The fourth elder's flying letter emphatically explained the power of the evil karma fire. This made Xumi, who was rushing back all the way, always worried that when he came back, he would see the outcome that he least wanted to bear.
Although the fourth elder had always been by Chi Yan's side, he had an elder who was close to him and told him the news about Yan Lao's location, and then he quickly sent a flying letter to inform the clan leader.
But even the fourth elder himself was not sure whether the clan leader could come back in time. He made up his mind that even if the elder died, he would still protect the elder's only flesh and blood.
Fortunately, Xumi came back very quickly. When he saw the two figures rushing out of the flame prison, he couldn't help but be surprised. But the next moment, he saw the scene he least wanted to see.
"Huo Ying, I want you to die!"
It was Mu Ji who was snatched out of the flame prison. The person he hated most at this moment was definitely Huo Ying.
This was not only the hatred for Mu Wenzhao who had been in prison for twenty years, but also the human youth who risked his life to save their father and daughter.
The so-called enemies are extremely jealous when they meet, let alone when new and old hatreds are combined. Therefore, Mu Ji even selectively ignored the clan leader Xumi standing next to him. At this moment, he only had the biggest enemy in his eyes.
Huo Ying.
"Great Elder, are you crazy?"
Huo Ying was not afraid at all when he saw that Mu Ji's demon energy surged all over his body as soon as he appeared. There was even a playful light in his eyes, and the words in his mouth seemed to express a position and attitude.
