"Are you alright?" Xia Yuhua quickly stepped forward to check on him.

Xia Yuhui waved his hands repeatedly to indicate that he was unharmed, but his expression was extremely solemn at this moment, because he had now become a true spirit and his body had been strengthened once again.

Now, even if a top-grade demonic beast were to fight him, he would be certain of victory. Unexpectedly, his fight with this person today was evenly matched, which truly shocked him.

"This man's physical strength is truly exceptional. Brother, we must not engage him in close combat later. He may have accomplices hiding around us, so we must proceed with caution."

"May I ask, fellow Daoist, why are you blocking my brother's way? If you are after money, then we can leave fifty spirit stones as toll." After confirming that Xia Yuhui was alright, Xia Yuhua immediately inquired about the other party's identity.

One breath... two breaths...

Seeing that the other party remained silent, Xia Yuhua was about to speak again when another figure appeared not far behind them, presumably the same person they had just encountered.

Xia Yuhui, witnessing this scene, could no longer bear it. He took out the volcano artifact and was about to throw it when a shout suddenly came from afar.

"Does Fellow Daoist Xia still remember me?" After saying this, he slowly walked out from the dense forest in the distance.

Upon seeing the newcomer, Xia Yuhui and Xia Yuhua frowned instantly. This person was the cultivator with whom Xia Yuhui had previously made a transaction.

"Fellow Daoist, what is the meaning of this?" Xia Yuhui immediately questioned angrily.

"Fellow Daoist, please don't misunderstand. I've only come to ask if you still have that kind of Yin-attribute spiritual herb from last time. I have no other intentions. If you still have it, I'm willing to pay a high price to buy it."

Xia Yuhui frowned deeply. This person was incredibly powerful and had two formidable helpers. If they were to get entangled with him here, by the time he reached his destination, the cultivators who had attacked the family might have already fled.

The best way now is to spend money to avoid disaster. Thinking of this, he took out a flower with extremely strong yin energy from his storage bag.

"Fellow Daoist, look at this flower. Could you please let us pass? This is the last Yin-attribute spiritual object I possess."

The man's eyes lit up as soon as he saw the flower, and he was about to go forward to take it, but then he seemed to remember something and stood still.

The person who had just exchanged blows with Xia Yuhui immediately stepped forward to take the flower from Xia Yuhui's hand.

Upon seeing this, Xia Yuhui's eyes darkened instantly, and he had no choice but to hand over the flower.

However, as the person approached, Xia Yuhui used all his divine sense to investigate. When he finished investigating, he was so shocked that he stood there dumbfounded, muttering to himself, "So that's how it is, a corpse refinement?"

After the person took the spiritual item from Xia Yuhui's hand, he immediately examined it several times to confirm that it was correct before putting it into his storage bag.

"Fellow Daoist's divine sense is truly rare. Indeed, these two armored corpses were crafted by me. My name is Hu Gu. I wonder where you obtained such spiritual objects?" After saying this, he tossed a storage bag to Xia Yuhui.

Xia Yuhui took it and examined it. He found that there were three hundred spirit stones inside the storage bag. Obviously, this was too much.

"Fellow Daoist Hu, the spiritual plants we exchanged last time were ones I snatched from the servants of the Spirit Ghost Daoist. This spiritual plant, however, I brought from the Northern Frontier. I imagine it's not available in Jinling County." After a moment's thought, he decided it was best to tell the truth.

"In that case, please make yourselves at home, fellow Daoists. Thank you for your kind words."

Xia Yuhui and Xia Yuhua exchanged a glance, then slowly withdrew from the area. Once they were sure it was safe, they released the flying boat again, which disappeared into the distance.

Hu Gu watched the two figures disappear into the distance, a slight smile playing on his lips. "Interesting, very interesting. Their physical combat strength is even slightly superior to my armored corpse. I wonder how they would compare to me?"

However, recalling the killing intent that Xia Yuhui had unintentionally released just now, he dismissed the idea. Fighting with Xia Yuhui would not benefit him, so he would never choose to fight. Besides, this person's strength was probably inferior to his own. After all, he had just felt a chilling aura. Since arriving in the ancient kingdom, this was the first time he had felt such a chilling feeling from a cultivator of the same level.

Because of the time lost, Xia Yuhui and his companion had to speed up again.

After driving for nearly two hours, Xia Yuhui spotted a figure within his perception range, and he immediately took Xia Yuhua to get there.

A dozen or so breaths later, the two arrived in front of the cultivator, who immediately bowed to them, saying, "Big Brother, Fifth Brother."

Xia Yuhua: "Yuchang, what are you doing here? Aren't you supposed to be guarding the mine with the second brother?"

"Big brother, fifth brother, haven't you received the news yet? Many people in the family have died this time. The patriarch has already issued a notice to the entire clan to kill these cultivators with all their might. Now, each garrison has left half of its people behind and the other half have come to provide support. Because my escape technique is too slow, I can only catch up with the rest." Xia Yuchang hurriedly replied, afraid that if he was late, he would delay the important matter.

"What? Seventeen, how many people in the family died?" Xia Yuhui quickly grabbed Xia Yuchang's arm and asked excitedly.

"There was no specific explanation, but I heard from my second brother that at least 20 people died, and even the Grand Elder was seriously injured."

"Do you know the exact location of that group of people right now?" Xia Yuhua quickly asked, getting to the point.

"I know, I know! My second brother just gave me a rough idea of ​​the location."

Upon hearing this, Xia Yuhui grabbed Xia Yuchang and pulled her into the flying boat. The three of them quickly headed towards their destination.

After traveling for nearly half an hour, the three of them encountered some members of the Xia family, but they were all injured and were meditating on the ground to recover.

Xia Yuhui and his two companions did not disembark from the flying boat, but instead shouted from the sky, "Where did those people go? Quickly point out their direction!"

The two or three people below, upon seeing Xia Yuhui and Xia Yuhua, immediately stood up excitedly, "It's Big Brother and Fifth Brother! Now those thugs can't escape!"

"Yes, we have a chance to get revenge!"

"Yu Hui, they've headed towards Panyun Market. You must hurry and chase after them. You must bring them down and avenge my family." Finally, an old man replied to Xia Yu Hui.

Xia Yuhui quickly put Xia Yuchang down and said to him, "You don't need to go. Take care of these injured people." After saying that, he drove Xia Yuhua away quickly.

Along the way, he also saw several corpses, most of which were the corpses of family cultivators, with only a few corpses wearing monkey masks.

This made Xia Yuhui even more anxious, but his speed had already reached its limit and he could no longer accelerate, so there was no use in being anxious.

When he felt they were almost there, Xia Yuhui had Xia Yuhua take over driving the flying boat, while he sat in the back and took a pill to slowly recover his lost magical power.

After another half incense stick's time, the two finally arrived at the battlefield. In the center of the battlefield, there were nearly a dozen late-stage Qi Refining cultivators wearing monkey masks, constantly attacking the encirclement formed by the Xia family cultivators. Surrounding them were nearly 50 members of the Xia family, and more cultivators were arriving from the surrounding area.

Upon seeing this, Xia Yuhui immediately flew into the sky and roared, "Early Qi Refining cultivators, retreat immediately!" His voice was as loud as a bell, causing the fierce battle to pause for a few moments. When the early Qi Refining cultivators of the Xia family saw that the person who came was Xia Yuhui, they immediately obeyed the order and retreated.

Today, Xia Yuhui's prestige in the family is at its zenith, even surpassing that of his elder brother of the Yu generation.
