I was reborn after playing a good hand badly

The Five Elements Spirit Clan were born and raised by nature. If they want to practice, they need to rely on the nourishment of the Five Elements Spirit Essence. If the Spirit Essence is exhausted, then let alone practicing, they won't even be able to maintain their human form.

Therefore, there is no need to say much about the importance of the Five Elements Spirit Essence to them. It is an indispensable treasure.

But thinking of the crisis he encountered after stepping into the teleportation array, Huo Yan felt depressed. If he hadn't been lucky, he would never have been able to bring back the Five Elements Spirit Essence. If it happened again, he himself couldn't guarantee that he could come back safely.

It turns out that obtaining the five elements' spiritual essence is not something that a person in the foundation-building stage can undertake.

It's really not easy to be a clan leader, especially the clan leader of this period...

Taking another deep breath, Huo Yan forced himself to adjust his mindset.

The situation on Blue Star is becoming more and more complicated. The Fire Spirit Clan can no longer cope with it as easily as when they first set foot on Blue Star.

Huo Yan had no choice but to lead the Fire Spirit Clan to join the United Alliance and huddle together with the natives of Blue Star, but this also caused him to be involved in some open and secret struggles.

The Fire Spirit Clan is facing many problems now. Internally, there is the danger of the continuation of their inheritance, and externally, there is the danger of intrigue and competition for resources. It is very, very difficult.

"Let's talk about it next year. I'm sure I can make it to next year!"

"The rest of the clansmen aren't strong enough to take on the responsibility yet. I can't afford to get into trouble at this time..."

(Clan leader Huo Yan is the only one in the Fire Spirit Clan who is at the Foundation Establishment stage.)

Huo Yan turned around and walked to the sofa and was about to sit down when he heard...

"Ding Dong, Ding Dong..." The doorbell is ringing.

Naturally, there were members of the Fire Spirit Clan who went to check it out.

Huo Yan's spiritual sense had already seen who the visitor was. He was extremely surprised and turned around abruptly to look towards the gate.

Su Mo? The person who came was actually Su Mo!

The Fire Clan leader, who was just distressed and bored, was pleasantly surprised. Su Mo had come. Then his Five Elements Spirit Essence...

He immediately sent a message to the clan members, asking them to bring Su Mo to the living room.

The two parties in the transaction, who had not seen each other for a long time, met again and secretly looked at each other at the first moment.

In Su Mo's eyes, Huo Yan no longer had the god-like and lofty feeling he had a few years ago.

I don’t know what they went through, but it is said that the Fire Spirits adapted quite well after coming here to live. It seems that the rumors are just superficial.

(As the insect plague became more severe, chaos ensued within Country A. A large number of survivors died, and those who survived by chance found it difficult to obtain further assistance from the Fire Spirits.

Due to various reasons, the image of the God of Fire that the Fire Spirit Clan had recently established in Country A gradually collapsed. The number of believers became fewer and fewer, and the power of faith naturally faded.

After migrating to Xia Country, the Fire Spirits initially wanted to "return to their old ways," but the survivors in Xia Country weren't so easily fooled, and they had plenty to eat, so no matter how hard they tried, they couldn't inspire anyone's faith and worship.

Of course, they would not reveal the above experiences of the Fire Spirit Clan to the outside world, and Su Mo, who had just returned, had no way of knowing.

Compared to Su Mo's calm attitude, Huo Yan was secretly shocked. He couldn't actually detect Su Mo's realm?

It wasn't like this the last time they met. Su Mo must have obtained some kind of magical weapon that could conceal his realm or block detection.

That must be the case!

Then he thought that since Su Mo came to him, he must have brought back the Five Elements Spirit Essence. You know, this thing is precious, and it is only for their Five Elements Spirit Clan. It will not be of much use to other cultivators.

He really didn't expect that the person who had been missing for several years and whom he thought was dead would come back alive.

Huo Yan's brow and mood relaxed.

As long as Su Mo still wanted the Mysterious Spirit Stone, why would he still have to worry about the Five Elements Spirit Essence? God's will! This was the will of heaven, not to destroy his Fire Spirit Clan!

"Principal Su, I'm so glad you're okay! Did you get the Five Elements Spirit Essence?" Huo Yan took a few steps forward and asked impatiently.

He shouldn't have been so anxious, but the issue of the Five Elements Spiritual Essence put too much pressure on him.

Su Mo sneered in his heart, but he had no intention of letting Huo Yan go. He had sent himself to such a far and dangerous secret realm. If she didn't have the small tower, she would have died long ago. If she hadn't met Yuan Qi in the Thunder Domain, it might take her many years to return to Blue Star.

She glanced at the Fire Spirit tribe members who had already retreated, and decided not to return the "interest" in front of the other tribe members. This was considered to be preserving the dignity of the tribe leader Huo Yan.

Seeing that Su Mo did not respond to him, Huo Yan approached again.

"Hey, Principal Su, please say something~ Ahhhh!"

Before he could finish his anxious question, Su Mo punched him in the face.

This unexpected punch knocked Huo Yan back a few steps. Huo Yan covered his nose and looked at Su Mo in shock.

Su Mo didn't use much force in his punch, it was obvious that he was just venting his anger. Huo Yan only had a broken nose and a sunken face, which was not even considered an injury for a spirit like him.

It's just embarrassing.

Huo Yan was surprised. He couldn't believe that Su Mo dared to sneak attack him and slap him in the face on his territory!

Su Mo withdrew his hand and looked at him with a smile.

"For nine years, I wandered between life and death. Thanks to the Fire Chief, I am finally back."

Huo Yan slowly put down his hand. There was no expression on his handsome face, only a collapsed nose and two fresh nosebleeds.

Su Mo tilted his head slightly, unable to bear to look at his own masterpiece.

For the sake of the Five Elements Spirit Essence, Huo Yan suppressed his anger.

The living room was quiet for a moment before Huo Yan's voice rang out.

"The deal between us is inherently risky. I thought you should be mentally prepared!"

"Why say that now?"

Su Mo then turned around and looked at him. His injuries had recovered, and he had also regained some of his previous arrogant attitude.

Su Mo secretly clicked his tongue, he really looks like a charlatan, so good at pretending!

"Of course I was mentally prepared, otherwise it wouldn't be a matter of just one punch."

Huo Yan looked at Su Mo deeply. As they stared at each other, neither of them backed down. Finally, Huo Yan closed his eyes and told himself that now was not the time to argue with Su Mo.

Huo Yan raised his chin slightly and asked calmly, "So, what's the result? Did you get the Five Elements Spirit Essence? Do you still want to trade the Mysterious Spirit Stone with my Fire Spirit Clan?"

He was just too impatient and caught off guard, so he fell into Su Mo's trap and dared to slap him in the face. If Su Mo still wants the Xuanling Stone, hehe...

"Of course I got the Five Elements Spirit Essence." Su Mo walked to the sofa next to him and sat down, speaking frankly.

Huo Yan was ecstatic inside, but he didn't show it on his face. He sat down as well.

"Very good! Then we can continue our transaction!"

Su Mo stretched out his index finger and waved it.

"This trip took me over nine years, and I experienced life and death several times. Naturally, the exchange rate can't be the same as before."

Huo Yan's eyelids twitched, and he cursed inwardly, but on the surface he tried to control himself. He hadn't even had time to raise the price yet, and how dare Su Mo? Too arrogant!

But the Five Elements Spirit Essence is a treasure that the Fire Spirit Clan must obtain, and he can't possibly give it up!

If it weren't for the fact that obtaining the Five Elements Spirit Essence from Su Mo would be much safer than going to the other side of the teleportation array and taking unknown dangers, Huo Yan thought he would definitely not tolerate the other party.

But now I can only hold my breath!

"Oh? So what do you want to do?"

"The exchange rate will be increased five times!" Su Mo raised his right hand with all five fingers open and shook it.

"Before, we were talking about exchanging one drop of Five Elements Spiritual Essence for 5 kilograms of Mysterious Spiritual Stone, but now we have to exchange it for 25 kilograms."

"Do you think Xuanling Stone is some kind of cabbage?" Huo Yan felt that she could not hold back any longer. How could she dare to open her mouth?

Huo Yan's body trembled slightly, revealing his master's uneasiness.

Su Mo smiled.

"Transactions require mutual consent. If the Fire Clan leader is dissatisfied with the price, it seems he is not short of the Five Elements Spirit Essence. Fine, I'll take my leave."

Seeing Su Mo really stand up and want to leave, Huo Yan no longer cared about being angry and said, "Trade is a give-and-take thing! Five times is too much. At most, after the transaction is completed, I will give you 10 kilograms more..."

Before he could finish his words, Su Mo rolled his eyes speechlessly.

He just raised his foot and walked out.

Huo Yan suddenly stood up and could no longer hold on. He was determined to get the Five Elements Spirit Essence! How could he let Su Mo leave?

What did this arrogant human think of him? Not only did he slap himself in the face upon meeting him, but he also asked for such an outrageous price!

At this moment, the fire in Huo Yan's body was boiling, the power of the fire spirit was flowing, and Huo Yan's eyes instantly turned blood red.

Since Su Mo has admitted that he has the Five Elements Spirit Essence in his body, he can get it from her as long as he controls her, and he doesn't have to give up the Xuanling Stone.

At this moment, Huo Yan no longer cared about Su Mo's identity and status in Xia Country. As long as he operated well, who would know that Su Mo disappeared from his place?

Besides, Su Mo’s disappearance is not surprising!
