Starting as a supporting character in Doupo

Page 322

Nodding, the Soul Palace expert cautiously stared at the three-colored fire lotus in Xiao Fan's hand, afraid that the fire lotus might accidentally explode.

Xiao Fan ignored the other person's gaze, looked at him, and asked, "How should I address you?"

“Bi... Bi Fang”.

“Bifang…” Xiao Fan murmured softly, his eyes lowered. After a moment of contemplation, as Bifang suppressed its fear, Xiao Fan continued, asking, “Have you… seen this kind of flame before?”

As soon as Xiao Fan finished speaking, the pitch-black Chaos Fire reappeared, but it had no aura whatsoever and did not emit any fluctuations. If it were not visible to the naked eye, it would seem as if it did not exist at all.

Upon hearing Xiao Fan's words and looking at the dark flames before him, Bi Fang hurriedly nodded and said, "That's right, I've seen this dark fire before during the grand competition in the hall."

"A grand competition inside the hall?" Xiao Fan asked, his eyes filled with doubt.

As Bi Fang listened to Xiao Fan's words, he pondered the reason why Xiao Fan asked about the dark fire. He then explained to Xiao Fan, "I was in charge of collecting souls for the defense of a part of the Black Corner Region in the hall. When I sent the collected souls back to the hall, it happened to coincide with the grand competition of the younger generation in the hall. I saw this dark fire on a genius in the hall, and it was precisely because of this dark fire that the genius disciple was able to stand out in the hall."

Xiao Fan was thrilled to hear Bi Fang's words, but his face remained indifferent as he asked, "Are you sure that the flame used by that so-called genius is exactly the same as mine?"

Upon hearing this, Bi Fang carefully examined the pitch-black flames before him, cautiously probing them before nodding and saying, "That's right. When I returned, I happened to witness a battle during the grand competition in the hall, so I went to take a look and saw a disciple named Mo Shang using this flame against his opponent. Because this flame cannot be sensed by soul power, many people in the hall were discussing the flame used by Mo Shang. In the end, I heard from others that the flame Mo Shang wielded was called Dark Fire."

As Bi Fang explained to Xiao Fan, he was extremely shocked as he looked at the familiar flames before him.

Why can Xiao Fan also wield the Dark Flame that Mo Shang possesses?

Unfortunately, he only heard a few words of gossip from others and didn't know much more about Mo Shang.

Xiao Fan was overjoyed to receive news of Mo Shang from Bi Fang. Because of Eagle Protector's decision, his soul clone was suddenly taken to Zhongzhou by Eagle Protector. Due to the great distance, the connection between Xiao Fan and his soul clone was greatly reduced, and he could only perceive the general direction.

Xiao Fan never expected that he would receive news about Mo Shang again from Bi Fang.

After a moment of silence, Xiao Fan asked Bi Fang for more information, but unfortunately, Bi Fang knew only a limited amount about Mo Shang. Apart from what he had just mentioned, Xiao Fan did not get any more information.

Seeing that Bifang was no longer of any use, Xiao Fan did not hesitate at all. He flicked his finger, and the huge fire dragon under his feet roared out and swallowed Bifang. After swallowing Bifang, the fire dragon coiled into a ball under Xiao Fan's control. Strange fire roared out from the fire dragon's body and completely refined Bifang into ashes.

Chapter 35 Sword Pointing at Demon Flame Valley

After Xiao Fan blew up Bi Fang, the three-colored fire lotus spinning in his hand gradually peeled away under his control. Then, with a flash of light, it completely dissipated. Xiao Fan's understanding of strange fire has now reached a new level. He can make the three-colored fire lotus by hand, and naturally, he can also cancel it again.

Xiao Fan leaned back in his chair, carefully recalling the information he had just received from Bi Fang. At least for now, it seemed that Mo Shang had not suffered any harm after arriving at the Soul Palace, and even seemed to be doing very well within the Soul Palace.

Thinking of this, a smile flashed in Xiao Fan's eyes. He then waved his hand, and the fire dragon and chair under his feet turned into strange fire and dissipated in the sea of ​​fire. Then, the Azure Lotus Earth Core Fire roared all over the sky and was taken back into Xiao Fan's body.

As the sea of ​​fire dissipated, only Xiao Fan's figure was revealed. Everyone was stunned by Xiao Fan's methods. In such a short time, he actually killed a Dou Zong powerhouse.

Thinking of this, everyone looked at Xiao Fan with a hint of apprehension. Even Mo Tianxing, seeing the terrifying strength Xiao Fan displayed, was surprised. The strength of that Dou Zong expert was something even he would have to put in considerable effort to defeat; killing him would have been a difficult task...

Mo Tianxing shook his head at this thought. If the other party was determined to leave, he probably wouldn't be able to stop him at all. As for killing him as easily as Xiao Fan, that was simply impossible.

Now that Xiao Fan's combat power is becoming more and more terrifying, Mo Tianxing feels more and more fortunate. Mo Tianxing glanced at Fang Yan and the others in the distance, who were still at a disadvantage despite being outnumbered three to one. He realized that Xiao Yan's strength was also extremely terrifying. Thinking of this, Mo Tianxing did not linger any longer. He nodded to Xiao Fan and Su Qian in the sky and then led the group of experts from the Black Emperor Sect away from the valley.

Before leaving, Mo Tianxing looked at the old man of Eagle Mountain not far away and said, "I don't know what other tricks you have up your sleeve, but I advise you to be careful with such a terrifying young man."

As soon as he finished speaking, Mo Tianxing didn't wait for Elder Yingshan to react, and the Black Emperor Sect group left the valley directly.

When the old man from Eagle Mountain heard Mo Tianxing's words, he narrowed his eyes slightly, but did not speak. His gaze swept over Xiao Fan and Su Qian above him, and with a turn, he disappeared from the spot.

Xiao Fan absorbed the sea of ​​fire into his body and turned his gaze to Xiao Yan on the other side. He saw that the fusion of Fang Yan and the other two had transformed into an enormous fire phoenix, which was howling as it spread its wings and flew towards Xiao Yan.

Seeing the three's attack, Xiao Yan showed no fear, but rather a hint of excitement. He waved his hand, and the Azure Lotus Earth Core Flame and the Turtle Spirit Earth Flame roared out, transforming into two enormous palms that tightly imprisoned the Fire Phoenix within them. Then, the palms shrank continuously, transforming into a jade bottle the size of a palm, and the Fire Phoenix was imprisoned within it by Xiao Yan.

With the isolation provided by Xiao Yan's strange fire, the connection between Fang Yan and the other two and the Transformation Flame was also completely severed.

The Transformation Flame was the condensation of Fang Yan and the others' battle qi. Once lost, the strength of the three would be crippled by more than half. Now that the Transformation Flame had lost contact, even Fang Yan's face showed a trace of panic. He couldn't help but look at Xiao Yan and said, "Xiao Yan, my Demon Flame Valley admits defeat. The Transformation Flame is useless to you, and as time goes by, it will only dissipate completely. As long as you return the Transformation Flame to me, we will withdraw."

Xiao Yan listened to Fang Yan's words without replying. Having lost the Transformation Flame, Fang Yan and the other two had lost most of their strength. To them, the group from Demon Flame Valley no longer posed any threat.

Looking at the imprisoned Transformation Flame in his hand, Xiao Yan responded to Fang Yan with his actions.

Xiao Yan tossed the Transformation Flame in his hand toward Xiao Fan in the distance, saying, "Senior Brother, this Transformation Flame is a great tonic, it's yours!"

Seeing Xiao Yan's actions, Xiao Fan smiled slightly, and a jet-black flame roared out, carrying a violent and scorching aura, like a giant dragon, completely engulfing the Transformation Flame.

After the incident with Bi Fang, Xiao Fan had to take precautions. After all, there might be many other people who had witnessed Mo Shang's actions, just like Bi Fang. If someone with ulterior motives investigated, Mo Shang's identity might be exposed.

However, Xiao Fan had previously revealed his use of Chaos Fire in the Black Corner Region. The fact that he used a pitch-black flame was not a secret among the higher-ups in the Black Corner Region, so Xiao Fan could only make some changes to the properties of the Chaos Fire.

Now that Xiao Fan has imbued the Chaos Fire with the characteristics of the Azure Lotus Earth Core Flame and the Fallen Heart Flame, as long as he shows himself more often in the Black Corner Region, even if someone investigates closely in the future, they will find that although the flames used by Xiao Fan and Mo Shang are similar in appearance, the characteristics they contain are completely different. Only then will Mo Shang's identity be completely safe.

As the Transformation Flame was devoured by the Chaos Flame, Xiao Fan felt the power of the Chaos Flame increase slightly. On the other hand, Fang Yan and the others were severely injured by the disappearance of the Transformation Flame. After letting out a muffled groan, their faces turned even paler. The Third Elder suffered a backlash, with blood trickling from the corner of his mouth. He could barely control himself. Fortunately, the Second Elder was quick-witted and helped him up.

Seeing that Fang Yan and the other two had lost their value, Xiao Fan and Xiao Yan did not hesitate. Under the roar of the strange fire, the three of them were completely reduced to ashes. As for the storage rings on their bodies, they were naturally put into Xiao Fan's pocket.

"Hehe, you two really surprise me."

With the annihilation of the powerful figures from Demon Flame Valley, Su Qian landed in front of Xiao Fan and the other person, looking at them with astonishment.

Although he already knew that the two were now exceptionally strong, Su Qian was still amazed by Xiao Fan's ability to kill a three-star Dou Zong without making a sound. Similarly, Xiao Yan, who was only a six-star Dou Huang, easily killed three people when facing Fang Yan, who had one foot in Dou Zong, and two Dou Huang elders from Demon Flame Valley. Such talent would be hard for Su Qian to believe if there were no example like Xiao Fan in front of him.

"Elder, you flatter us. We should thank you for supporting us."

Xiao Fan and the other person exchanged a glance, then cupped their hands and smiled at Su Qian. Seeing this, Zi Yan peeked out from behind Su Qian and said somewhat indistinctly, "Haiyouwo".

Xiao Fan looked over and saw Zi Yan chewing something with relish, vaguely trying to curry favor with Xiao Fan and Zi Yan.

"Ha ha ha ha......"

Seeing Zi Yan's funny appearance, Xiao Fan and the other two couldn't help but laugh out loud.

After the three chatted and laughed for a while, Su Qian looked at the place where Fang Yan and the others had fallen, sighed, and couldn't help but say, "In the past two years, the Demon Flame Valley has been making more and more frequent moves, and the conflict between it and the academy has become more and more serious. With the deaths of Fang Yan and the other two, I'm afraid the conflict between the Demon Flame Valley and the academy will become even more acute in the future."

Upon hearing Su Qian's words, Xiao Fan asked, "Is the Grand Elder worried about the Earth Demon Old Ghost of Demon Flame Valley?"

Upon hearing Xiao Fan's words, Su Qian's eyes flashed with surprise. Then, he suddenly remembered that with the current strength of Xiao Fan and Xiao Fan, the Earth Demon Old Ghost was not a secret to them. Su Qian nodded and said, "The Earth Demon Old Ghost is a veteran powerhouse in the Black Corner Region. He had already reached the strength of a Seven-Star Dou Zong a long time ago. However, he has been in seclusion for many years, and there is very little news about him in the outside world. Including the previous conflict with the academy, Fang Yan was the one who made the decisions most of the time."

Su Qian sighed, his gaze sweeping across the valley, before speaking, "However, now that Fang Yan and the others have died, Demon Flame Valley has suffered such a great loss. I'm afraid even the Earth Demon Old Ghost won't be able to sit still any longer..."

Hearing Su Qian's words, Xiao Fan smiled and said, "Elder, do you want to nip the danger in the bud?"

Upon hearing this, Su Qian looked puzzled, then a glint of light flashed in her eyes as she looked at Xiao Fan with disbelief and asked, "You mean?"

"Strike first is the strongest!"

Xiao Fan waved his hand, looked at Su Qian, and said, "Old Demon Earth is a Seven-Star Dou Zong. If he really receives the message and prepares, with his connections, he might gather even more powerful figures to storm the academy. Since the hatred between the academy and Demon Flame Valley is irreconcilable, we might as well take advantage of the current weakened state of Demon Flame Valley and strike first before he receives the message, completely annihilating Demon Flame Valley."

"Sigh~"

Even with Su Qian's experience, hearing Xiao Fan's audacious idea still made him gasp. To deliberately provoke a Seven-Star Dou Zong was something even Su Qian found somewhat crazy.

However, after carefully considering what Xiao Fan had said, Su Qian could no longer suppress her thoughts and began to ponder the feasibility of the matter.

"There's no way around it. The others in Demon Flame Valley are manageable, but the Earth Demon Old Ghost is a Seven-Star Dou Zong. If the academy guardians don't intervene, no one in the academy can stand against him. However, unless it's a matter of life and death for the academy, the academy guardians simply won't intervene." After a long while, Su Qian shook his head regretfully, somewhat helplessly refuting Xiao Fan's plan. However, Xiao Fan's next sentence made his eyes widen in surprise.

"What if I had a way to deal with the Earth Demon Old Ghost?"

"really?"

Upon hearing Xiao Fan's words, Su Qian's eyes gleamed, and he looked at Xiao Fan with some surprise. However, recalling their identities, Su Qian nodded and said, "With Senior Medicine Venerable here, dealing with an old demon ghost is indeed no problem."

Unexpectedly, upon hearing Su Qian's words, both Xiao Fan and Xiao Yan's expressions darkened.

"Teacher... has been taken away by the people of the Soul Palace." Xiao Yan's face showed grief and indignation. He took a breath before speaking.

Upon hearing Xiao Yan's words, Su Qian was immediately startled. He frowned and said, "The people of the Soul Palace... the Dean also had some conflicts with this force back then. We only know that this force is searching for soul bodies all over the continent, but we don't know why..."

Su Qian looked at Xiao Fan and the other person and said, "In short, this force is extraordinary. You two should be careful and not act rashly."

"Hmm." Xiao Fan and the other person nodded. Then Xiao Fan looked at Su Qian and said, "It's okay. Even if the teacher isn't here, I'm still confident that I can deal with the Earth Demon Old Ghost."

Chapter 36 Siege

Upon hearing Xiao Fan's words, a hint of surprise flashed in Su Qian's eyes. He looked Xiao Fan up and down, and recalling Xiao Fan's ability to easily kill a three-star Dou Zong, Su Qian was already more than half convinced.

However, such a reckless act of attacking Demon Flame Valley is something even Su Qian has to seriously consider. After all, if the strength of the Earth Demon Old Ghost is not dealt with properly, it could sow the seeds of a huge disaster for Canaan Academy.

Looking at the confident smile on Xiao Fan's face, Su Qian frowned and pondered for a moment. Hesitantly, he asked Xiao Fan again, "Old Demon of the Earth is no ordinary person. He is a veteran powerhouse in the Black Corner Region. Many years ago, he was already a Seven-Star Dou Zong. His ice-attribute Dou Qi is also extraordinary in combat. Are you really confident?"

Upon hearing this, Xiao Fan knew that the Grand Elder had to consider the students of Canaan Academy, so he said to Su Qian with a serious expression, "Grand Elder, don't worry, since I dare to say it, I am confident that I can deal with the Earth Demon Old Ghost."

With his current strength as a four-star Dou Zong, Xiao Fan naturally had no worries about dealing with the seven-star Dou Zong Earth Demon Old Ghost. Even Xiao Yan was able to cross a major realm, so Xiao Fan estimated that with his own strength, if he were to unleash the Radiant Sun Nine Transformations, it shouldn't be a problem.

"it is good."

Seeing Xiao Fan's serious expression and recalling his terrifying talent and the many miracles he had created, Su Qian began to trust Xiao Fan more.

"Since that's the case, I'll go crazy with you guys."

The Grand Elder smiled as he looked at Xiao Fan and the other person. After all, Canaan Academy had suffered a lot of losses in the past two years due to the targeting of Demon Flame Valley. Many of the academy's instructors and students had died at the hands of Demon Flame Valley. The Grand Elder had long wanted to retaliate against Demon Flame Valley, but he had been hesitant because he was wary of the strength of the Earth Demon Old Ghost.

Now that Fang Yan and the others have perished, the Demon Flame Valley has suffered a great loss of strength. In addition, with the return of Xiao Fan and Xiao Yan, Su Qian finally made up her mind after hearing Xiao Fan's words.

Upon hearing the Grand Elder's words, Xiao Fan smiled. After the incident in the Jia Ma Empire where Elder Yao was taken away by the Soul Hall, Xiao Fan was no longer certain whether the academy could remain unscathed under the attack of the Earth Demon Old Ghost. Since they would have to confront the Earth Demon Old Ghost sooner or later, they might as well take advantage of the fact that the Earth Demon Old Ghost was unaware of the situation here and launch a preemptive strike to catch him off guard.

After the group finished making their decision, Su Qian looked at Xiao Fan, his gaze sweeping over the surrounding valley, and then said, "Right now, the priority is to protect this Bodhi Transformation Saliva. Fortunately, no Dou Zong has intervened, so these people aren't too much of a problem. With two Dou Zong experts protecting them, I believe they know when to advance and retreat."

Upon hearing this, Xiao Fan glanced at the storage ring and then said to Su Qian, "Hehe, Elder, this matter is not over yet..."

After speaking, Xiao Fan flew out of the valley first, amidst the puzzled look of the Grand Elder. Seeing this, the Grand Elder and the others followed behind Xiao Fan, gathering a group of powerful individuals from Canaan Academy, and headed towards Canaan Academy.

Having decided to deal with Demon Flame Valley, the Grand Elder immediately instructed one of his men to use a secret technique to send a message to the academy. Currently, another team of powerful individuals from the academy, led by Hu Qian, is heading towards the Black Corner Region. To avoid any unforeseen complications, Xiao Fan also advised the Grand Elder not to return to the academy but to gather his forces and secretly head to Demon Flame Valley to launch a direct attack.

The academy's instructors were naturally very supportive of the Grand Elder's decision. Over the past two years, many of their students or colleagues had died at the hands of Demon Flame Valley, so their hatred for Demon Flame Valley was beyond words. Now that the academy was finally going to take action against Demon Flame Valley, and with the participation of Xiao Fan and Xiao Yan, who were once prominent figures in the inner academy, everyone was naturally in favor of it.

After Xiao Fan and the others left the valley with the Bodhi Transformation Saliva, the Grand Elder thought that with the two Dou Zong present, no one would dare to try to steal it again. However, along the way, they still encountered many ambushes, all of which were after the Bodhi Transformation Saliva in Xiao Fan's possession.

However, in their eyes, these people were just like a mantis trying to stop a chariot. The most dangerous time was when three Dou Huang powerhouses joined forces, but they were still no match for them and were defeated with one dead and two injured. Since the defeat of the three Dou Huangs, they have not encountered any ambushes for a whole day.

"Strange, how do they know our whereabouts so well? And how do they always manage to ambush us on our way?"

The Grand Elder, reflecting on the ambush along the way, looked at Xiao Fan with some surprise: "Could it be that Demon Flame Valley made a move?"
