When my vicious stepmother mistakenly married me to the Immortal Lord

Misty Swamp, deep inside.

Jiang Song carefully moved among the dense ancient trees, looking at the surrounding environment vigilantly.

This area has penetrated deep into the heart of the Misty Swamp. Not only has the fog become thicker, but the terrain has also become more complex and varied.

Sometimes it is a muddy swamp, and sometimes it turns into a rugged stone forest. If you are not careful, you will fall into danger.

Jiang Song had a nimble figure and walked lightly. While she used the Qingmi Spirit Pearl to dispel the miasma around her, she carefully searched for the trace of the Purple Yun Fairy Lotus.

Suddenly, her sight fixed on a stone forest not far ahead.

The stone forest has a strange shape, and each stone has a strange curved posture, as if paying tribute to a certain direction.

In the center of the stone forest, there grows a purple lotus with layers of petals, emitting a fairy-like aura.

It was exactly the goal of Jiang Song’s trip—the Purple Immortal Lotus!

"Finally found!"

Jiang Song was delighted, and she approached the stone forest cautiously, fearing that she would disturb the monsters hiding in the dark.

However, just when she was about to touch the Purple Immortal Lotus, a fierce attack suddenly came from the sky and hit her vital points!

Jiang Song reacted extremely quickly and dodged the attack with a flash of his body.

She looked up and saw a middle-aged man with a sinister face floating in the air, staring at her coldly.

"Little girl, I was the first one to set my eyes on this fairy lotus. If you know what's good for you, get out of here!"

"Senior, everything has a first come, first served order. I was the first to discover this purple lotus, so it should belong to me."

"Humph! First come, first served? I'll teach you today. In this place, whoever has the stronger fist is the one who rules!"

After the middle-aged man finished speaking, he moved and pounced towards Jiang Song.

His cultivation was quite good, already in the middle stage of the Nascent Soul, and he thought he was more than capable of dealing with a little girl who looked to be only in the early stage of the Foundation Establishment stage.

However, he soon discovered that he was wrong.

Jiang Song was just used to restraining her aura. Her real cultivation level was already at the early stage of Nascent Soul.

Although her realm was slightly lower than the other party's, her body movements were strange and her speed was so fast that it was difficult to predict. She could always dodge the middle-aged man's attack at the moment it was about to fall.

Moreover, her counterattacks were extremely sharp, and each attack was aimed directly at his vital points, forcing him to return to defense.

After a few rounds, the middle-aged man didn't gain any advantage at all, but was instead forced into a state of embarrassment by Jiang Song.

"You, little girl, do have some skills! However, I must get this Purple Lotus today!"

A sinister look flashed in the middle-aged man's eyes, and he suddenly took out a magic weapon and smashed it towards Jiang Song.

It was a heavy magic weapon, emitting a heavy pressure. If it hit someone, the skeleton, tendons, and internal organs would probably be shattered.

Jiang Song frowned and quickly retreated, while making hand gestures to prepare for the attack of this magic weapon.

However, at this moment, something strange happened!

A red flame suddenly burst out from Jiang Song's body, transformed into a fire phoenix, and flew towards the magic weapon.

The fire phoenix and the magic weapon collided in the air, making a deafening noise.

Immediately afterwards, the magic weapon was swallowed by the fire phoenix in one gulp and turned into a wisp of green smoke and dissipated in the air.

Seeing this, the middle-aged man was stunned and his face was full of disbelief.

His magic weapon was destroyed just like that?

Moreover, it was ruined by a young girl who had just started out?

how can that be!

Jiang Song was also stunned. She looked down at her hands, a trace of confusion flashing in her eyes.

That crimson flame just now, was it the Vermillion Bird Divine Fire?

However, she did not actively summon the Vermillion Bird Divine Fire!

Why did it suddenly appear and help her block the attack of the magic weapon?

Could it be that the Vermillion Bird Divine Fire was ignited at the critical moment of actual combat to automatically protect its master?

As soon as this thought flashed through his mind, Jiang Song felt a surge of burning power in his body. It was the Vermillion Bird Divine Fire that was ready to move.

She was delighted and tried to communicate with that power using her spiritual sense, and sure enough, she received a response from the Vermillion Bird Divine Fire.

It seems that after this period of practice and adjustment, she has slowly established a connection with the Vermillion Bird Divine Fire, and is only one step away from controlling this power.

The middle-aged man saw Jiang Song standing there in a daze, thinking that she was frightened silly. A fierce look flashed in his eyes, and he was ready to take the opportunity to launch a fatal blow.

However, as soon as he moved, he felt a burning breath coming towards him, and then a pillar of red fire fell from the sky, enveloping him completely.

"what--!"

The middle-aged man let out a shrill scream and struggled frantically in the pillar of fire, but to no avail.

The power of the Vermillion Bird Divine Fire was so overbearing that in less than a moment, it burned his body to ashes, and even his soul could not escape.

Jiang Song looked at the scene in front of him without a trace of emotion in his eyes.

The path of cultivation is against the will of heaven and is filled with killing and fighting.

Although she doesn't like to cause trouble, she is never afraid of any challenge.

Today this man is seeking his own death, and she is just going along with it and giving him a ride.

This was the first time she truly used the Suzaku Divine Fire against the enemy, and the effect was unexpectedly good.

If she experiences a few more actual combat experiences, she will surely be able to control this power more skillfully and turn it into her own trump card.

"Miss Luo, you have a really good trick!" At this time, a teasing voice sounded in Jiang Song's ears.

Jiang Song frowned and turned around, only to see Mu Yunlan standing on a huge rock not far away, looking at her with a smile.

He was holding the purple fairy lotus in his hand. It was obvious that he had taken the opportunity to pick the fairy lotus when she was fighting with the middle-aged man.

"Master Yun, what do you mean?" Jiang Song's eyes were slightly cold, and his expression was displeased. "Are you trying to take advantage of the conflict between the snipe and the clam so that you can profit?"

Mu Yunlan chuckled, jumped off the boulder, and walked in front of Jiang Song.

In front of Jiang Song, he placed the fairy lotus on his lips and kissed it, then threw it back to her with seductive eyes and a frivolous tone.

"No! Fairy flowers should be paired with beauties. I picked this fairy lotus for you."

Jiang Song took a step back unconsciously. Before the fairy lotus could touch him, she waved her sleeve and knocked it into a puddle of water. Her face turned cold, "Mr. Yun, please respect yourself."

Self-respect?!

Mu Yunlan pondered over these two words. He was born with a romantic and dashing appearance, and his peach blossom eyes were naturally affectionate.

Any woman he likes will sooner or later fall under his tender offensive.

The woman in front of him was just one of his many prey.

But, she is different from other women.

But Jiang Song leaned over to pick up the fairy lotus, washed it several times with clean water, and made sure that there was no trace of Mu Yunlan left on it before putting it in his pocket.

Her actions clearly showed that she disliked him.

Mu Yunlan was not angry, but found it amusing. "Miss Luo is avoiding me like a snake and scorpion. It really makes me sad."

Jiang Song ignored his teasing and turned away.
