Top-tier Unruly Master

Chapter 2257: Chapter 2292: Thank You So Much

He tried to recall the route that the demon had taken when it flew in. Fortunately, the demon didn’t control his soul at the time, so he remembered some of the path.

When flying in, it only took half an hour, but when flying out, it took a whole four hours. In the face of the rolling black-purple mist, Ding Fan still hadn’t made it out.

"Hoo~~"

At this moment, Ding Fan suddenly stopped controlling the coffin’s movement because he heard a heavy panting below. The sound was filled with endless suffering, as terrifying as the roar of a fierce ghost.

"Is it actually Crimson Flame?"

Ding Fan listened for a while, and the light in his eyes narrowed. He was familiar with the sound, as if it were the voice of Crimson Flame.

He thought for a moment, not acting rashly, but looking at Sirius and asking: "That mist is poisonous, and there are many poisonous insects. There should be quite a few mechanisms and prohibitions below. Can you go down and check?"

Sirius could suppress many mysterious beasts, and the mechanisms and prohibitions seemed ineffective against it, so Ding Fan asked it first. Sirius glanced down contemptuously, raised its head proudly, and barked twice. Its expression seemed to say, this is too simple for me.

"Hmm, be careful. If Crimson Flame is really down there, bring him up. If there’s danger, come back immediately!"

Ding Fan solemnly instructed, as Sirius lifted its head. With a kick of its short legs, it turned into a white light and flew down.

When Sirius wanted to rush out of the protective shield, Ding Fan controlled the coffin’s barrier to thin out, letting Sirius pierce through. Then, he filled the coffin with blue light, isolating the black-purple mist and poisonous insects outside.

"Hoo~~"

The person below was indeed Crimson Flame. He had been here for several days, and fortunately, he understood the Heaven Earth True Insight, or he would have been dead. He used "Heaven and Earth’s Momentum" to suppress the space around him, so that the poisonous mist and insects couldn’t approach, but he was still poisoned. It was when he triggered the prohibition that the poison mist touched his body. Now, he was lying on the ground, breathing heavily...

Of course, the reason Crimson Flame was still alive was largely because he hadn’t ventured deep into Evil Spirit Mountain. The poisonous mist outside wasn’t too fearsome; it was the kind inside that was truly terrifying.

"Whoosh!"

A slight sound of breaking air came from the sky as Sirius flew down into the protective shield of Crimson Flame’s "Heaven and Earth’s Momentum", startling Crimson Flame. His cold eyes swept towards Sirius.

"Sirius?"

This was Ding Fan’s pet, so Crimson Flame naturally recognized it. His eyes showed a hint of surprise, then filled with a sharp light. He weakened the shield of Heaven and Earth’s Momentum, and Sirius directly flew in.

Sirius landed near Crimson Flame’s head, then extended a furry paw and patted Crimson Flame’s head, pointing towards the sky.

Crimson Flame trembled with excitement and said softly, "Are you... saying the young master is up there?"

"Woo~~"

Sirius barked, nodded, and pointed upwards with its paw, meaning for Crimson Flame to go up.

Crimson Flame struggled to get up, closed his eyes, and sat down. After a moment, the Divine Soldier Pellet in his abdomen lit up and gradually enlarged. Crimson Flame, with Sirius, flew onto the Divine Soldier Pellet, releasing Heaven and Earth’s Momentum and suppressing the surrounding poisonous insects.

"Whoosh~"

Crimson Flame flew through the sky. Although the poisonous insects were suppressed, the poisonous mist was everywhere. Crimson Flame shuttled through the mist, and the poison inevitably clung to him.

Sirius was indeed remarkable. A white light surrounded its body, and the poisonous insects and mist couldn’t touch it. So, when it had just flown down, the poisonous insects and mist dared not approach it.

"Ah~"

Crimson Flame let out a painful groan; his body was filled with much poisonous mist, and he had been trying to expel it for two days. Now, the poison within increased tenfold, making him extremely pained and almost falling from the sky.

He clenched his teeth, controlling the Divine Soldier Pellet to fly upward. Above, Ding Fan sensed the commotion below and immediately opened the shield, allowing Chi Huo to rush in.

"Whoosh~"

Crimson Flame finally flew to the top of the giant coffin. As soon as he came up, he retracted his Divine Soldier Pellet and collapsed onto the ground, his limbs trembling. His skin was rotting in many places, and his back was covered in pustules, looking shocking.

"Young Master!"

However, as soon as Crimson Flame came up, his eyes were fixed on Ding Fan. When he saw Ding Fan’s familiar face, his expression turned ecstatic, yet his voice was somewhat choked.

"Detoxify quickly, don’t say anything now!" Ding Fan’s face was solemn as he hurriedly took out several healing medicines from his ring to feed Crimson Flame.

"Don’t touch me!"

Crimson Flame said in a low voice, "Don’t touch me, Young Master. My body is poisoned. If you touch me, you’ll be poisoned too. Don’t worry; I won’t die. I can slowly expel the poison."

Ding Fan’s hand stopped mid-air, not daring to touch Crimson Flame again, only able to watch him nervously.

His heart was moved by Crimson Flame’s actions. Crimson Flame charged into this terrifying Evil Spirit Mountain, intending to live and die with him. If he couldn’t come out, Crimson Flame would eventually die in Evil Spirit Mountain too.

Ding Fan didn’t rush to control the coffin to fly away but hovered in the air, waiting for Crimson Flame to detoxify first.

Crimson Flame was almost unable to sit, closed his eyes, and lay on the coffin. His body shimmered with the light of True Yuan, dispelling the poison bit by bit.

Crimson Flame’s power was strong; he could suppress nearby enemies, as well as the poison within him. Otherwise, he would have died days ago. The poison in Evil Spirit Mountain wasn’t a common poison; it was a "living" poison that could quickly spread automatically.

Crimson Flame’s "Heaven and Earth’s Momentum" suppressed the poison inside him, allowing him to expel it bit by bit. If it were an ordinary samurai, they would be powerless.

Two days!

Ding Fan had kept the coffin suspended in mid-air for two days. Most of the poison on the Crimson Flame had been expelled, leaving only some residual poison, which was no longer a major issue.

"Young Master..."

When Crimson Flame opened his eyes, he immediately looked at Ding Fan, wanting to ask him a question. Ding Fan waved his hand and said, "Don’t say anything yet, let’s get out of here first. My True Yuan won’t last long. Without the protection of this coffin, it will be hard for us to get out."

The massive coffin hung in the air, needing energy. It had once relied on the demon’s energy, but now it required Ding Fan’s True Yuan. The coffin’s flight required very powerful energy support, and Ding Fan’s True Yuan had been almost exhausted over the past two days.

Before this, Ding Fan was afraid of interfering with Crimson Flame’s detoxification, so he didn’t dare to move. Besides, he also wanted to ask Crimson Flame about the route he came in through to determine the most correct way out.

He controlled the coffin to move slowly, asking Crimson Flame about the entrance route and recalling the route he took to come in, so as to deduce the most suitable path.

After flying for half an hour, he could see a faint light ahead. Ding Fan immediately looked at Crimson Flame, who released his Divine Sense, and Ding Fan cooperatively controlled the coffin’s Protective Barrier, allowing Crimson Flame’s Divine Sense to go out and explore.

"Finally, we’re out!"

Crimson Flame let out a breath, eyes showing the joy of escape, and he stopped to add, "Young Master, there are two people outside; it should be Zhong Zhiyong and Zheng Tianren based on their aura."

"Oh?"

Ding Fan’s face sank. He thought for a moment and asked, "Did the two of them sense your Divine Sense?"

"Probably not. I didn’t go to investigate them, I just sensed some breathing from afar," Crimson Flame explained.

"That’s good..."

Ding Fan nodded and said, "Crimson Flame, you go out first and work with Zhong Zhiyong to deceive Zheng Tianren, tell him that I’m already dead."

"Huh?" Crimson Flame didn’t understand and said, "Young Master, Zheng Tianren is a good man. During your recent incident, he was always eager to help you. Why do you want to do this?"

"Of course, there’s a reason for it!"

Ding Fan didn’t have time to explain further, he just said, "You can quickly get Zheng Tianren to leave, then we can quietly leave this area. We can’t go to Spirit Dragon City anymore, and we mustn’t let the Zheng Family and Taiwang Palace know that I’m still alive and have also left Evil Spirit Mountain, do you understand?

Crimson Flame nodded without saying more, realizing something himself at that moment. Ding Fan controlled the coffin, continuing to fly. As he was about to come out from the purple and black fog, he looked at Crimson Flame, who nodded and flew out.

Ding Fan indeed had his reasons for doing this...

Not long ago, he was controlled by demons, causing a stir in the territory of the Zheng Family and Taiwang Palace. Even... other members of the Eastern Central Plains family, including the overlord Spirit Dragon Hall, might have received news.

If Ding Fan emerges alive from Evil Spirit Mountain, what kind of consequences would he face?

The Patriarch of the Zheng Family and the Master of Taiwang Palace would surely take notice, right? They would definitely ask Ding Fan how he came out of Evil Spirit Mountain, and what happened before?

Thus, the secret of the coffin would inevitably be exposed. What if the heads of the Zheng Family Clan demanded to open the coffin? People from Taiwang Palace might claim that Ding Fan killed their people and should hand over this coffin, right? What if the experts from Spirit Dragon Hall intervened? The demon said there was a type of Divine Medicine in the coffin, worth exchanging for a city, it must be very valuable.

As for Ding Fan’s identity, once it attracts attention from all sides, his identity might be exposed. When the enemies of the Sirius Clan come to kill him, what can he do to stop them?

The treasures inside the coffin, Ding Fan intended to keep for himself!

For this coffin, he almost died here, and of course, he didn’t want to share it with the Zheng Family, even though they paid a considerable price this time, with many people dispatched to rescue him. However, Ding Fan didn’t fully trust the people of the Zheng Family, nor would he entrust his life and the lives of a few others to them.

Of course, his goodwill toward the Zheng Family increased, and he would remember the friendship with the Zheng Family in his heart.

...

"Crimson Flame?"

As Yu Mao flew out, Zhong Zhiyong and Zheng Tianren immediately sensed it. They both looked surprised, as Crimson Flame had been inside for five days, and he was able to come out alive.

But Crimson Flame looked miserable, covered in sores and blood, his eyes full of pain. As soon as he flew over, he collapsed on the ground, breathing heavily and gasping continuously.

Zheng Tianren and Zhong Zhiyong immediately came over to help, but Crimson Flame hurriedly told them to stop, saying, "Don’t touch me, I’m covered in poison..."

Their hands stopped in mid-air. Crimson Flame sighed slightly and said, "The young master is dead. Duke Zheng, you need not wait here, and don’t worry about us. Let us return to the Northern Wastelands on our own."

"What?"

Zhong Zhiyong looked shocked, startled by the news. Crimson Flame glanced at him indifferently, and Zhong Zhiyong quickly caught on, quickly understanding something. His face turned somber as he pretended to close his eyes in pain.

"Dead? Alas..."

Zheng Tianren did not expect Crimson Flame to deceive him, and he didn’t believe Ding Fan could survive in such a harsh environment.

He didn’t leave, standing there sadly for a moment, then said, "You two shouldn’t be overly sad. Brother Chi, do you need me to go back to the family and get some antidote for you?"

"No!"

Crimson Flame weakly waved his hand and said, "Brother Zheng, I can force the poison out myself. Let me be alone, I want to grieve for the young master for a while, then force the poison out, and return to the Northern Wastelands. Well... if there’s any trouble, we’ll go to Han City to find Brother Zheng. We hope Brother Zheng can help us promptly, Crimson Flame would be very grateful."
