Seeing the grey-clothed elder, joy appeared in Qingfeng Li’s eyes since he recognized that he was the Sky Wolf Emperor.
Qingfeng Li knew he was safe now because the Sky Wolf Emperor had managed to defeat the White Hair Devil at the Peach Blossom Inn.
Qingfeng Li was happy but the White Hair Devil was livid with rage.
Looking at Sky Wolf Emperor, White Hair Devil asked, “You again. Do you want to stop me from killing Qingfeng Li?”
Casting a cool glance at White Hair Devil, Sky Wolf Emperor said, “Of course I will protect Qingfeng Li since he is a friend of my old friend. I defeated you the last time we met. Do you want to fight with me again?”
White Hair Devil’s facial colors kept changing from livid to pale then back. Having been defeated by the Sky Wolf Emperor in the Peach Blossom Inn, he knew that the Sky Wolf Emperor was powerful, having mastered spirit monarch realm cultivation techniques.
The White Hair Devil said, “Sky Wolf Emperor, you win. I will go.”
With a wave of his hand, he summoned back the four array formation flags from Qingfeng Li’s side before vanishing into a beam of white light.
Disengaged from the array formation, Qingfeng Li strode to the side of the Sky Wolf Emperor and bowed, “Senior, thank you for saving me.”
Mengyao Xu, Black Puppy, Sky-Devouring Snake, and the emperor of Lingyun all walked over to express their gratitude.
Looking at Sky Wolf Emperor, Qingfeng Li asked, “Senior, why didn’t you kill White Hair Devil? Last time at the Peach Blossom Inn, you could have killed him, but he fled into the void.”
He looked at Sky Wolf Emperor with bafflement on his face.
Sky Wolf Emperor looked at Qingfeng Li and was about to explain when suddenly he spat out a big mouthful of black blood. His body swayed, and he almost fell to the ground.
Seeing Sky Wolf Emperor spew blood, Qingfeng Li’s face changed sharply. He hurried to his side and helped him stand back up.
As a miracle healer, Qingfeng Li found immediately that Sky Wolf Emperor had deadly poison in his body. His expression changed sharply.
He asked, “Senior, how were you poisoned? What happened?”
Sky Wolf Emperor spat out another mouthful of black blood and said weakly, “I was wounded by the Poison Emperor and that is why I didn’t attack the White Hair Devil. Without any strength in my body, I bluffed and frightened him away. It was fortunate that he didn’t see that I had been poisoned. Otherwise, we would all have been finished.”
Hearing his words, Qingfeng Li, Mengyao Xu, and the others were all struck with fear for what would have happened. Fortunately, the White Hair Devil had once been defeated by Sky Wolf Emperor and fled at the first chance he got.
Sky Wolf Emperor said, “Hurry up and help me to a hiding place. As the 49th devil on the Devil List, the White Hair Devil is very smart. If he realized what happened and come back for us, we will surely die.”
Qingfeng Li nodded and understood the urgency of the situation.
He found the poison had begun to spread from Sky Wolf Emperor’s limbs to the heart. Even walking was an effort for him.
Without another word, Qingfeng Li carried Sky Wolf Emperor on his back and quickly ran away with Mengyao Xu, Black Puppy, Sky-Devouring Snake, and the Emperor of Lingyun.
Not long after Qingfeng Li left, White Hair Devil came back to where they had been. Staring at the black poisoned blood, his face went dark.
“Damn it! I should have known that Sky Wolf Emperor had been wounded or poisoned. Otherwise, he would have attacked me. But I was actually frightened away by him!”
Frustrated, White Hair Devil wanted to slap himself for missing such a good opportunity.
If he had realized the Sky Wolf Emperor had been just bluffing, he would have killed not only the Sky Wolf Emperor, but Qingfeng Li and the others as well. But now they had all escaped.
Gazing into the distance, White Hair Devil said, “I don’t think you can run far. Today I will track you down and kill you all.”
Choosing one direction, he turned into a silver tornado and dashed forward.
Carrying Sky Wolf Emperor on his back, Qingfeng Li asked Black Puppy to sniff for the scent of the White Hair Devil with its sensitive nose.
Suddenly, Black Puppy’s expression changed, saying, “No! I sense the White Hair Devil is gaining on us. He is running after us.”
Calmly, Qingfeng Li said, “He doesn’t know which direction we took. Now we should change to another direction and he won’t find us.”
With the Sky Wolf Emperor on his back, Qingfeng Li plunged into the Sun Mystic Realm.
The Sky Wolf Emperor’s expression changed. He said weakly, “Qingfeng Li, we can’t enter the Sun Mystic Realm. There are spirit monarch realm demonic beasts inside and we will die if we meet one of them. We must stay out of it.”
Qingfeng Li shook his head and said, “Senior, we can’t stay outside. The White Hair Devil has a wide sensing range and he will search for us outside. We will definitely die if he finds us. Entering the mystic realm is our only chance to survive.”
The Sky Wolf Emperor nodded reluctantly. Being extremely weak with the poison, he couldn’t even walk by himself and had to depend on Qingfeng Li.
Without hesitation, Qingfeng Li carried Sky Wolf Emperor on his back and quickly entered the Sun Mystic Realm with others.
The moment they entered the mystic realm, they felt a suppression and even the air emitted a burning red light. Like a boulder with a weight of 1,000 pounds, the suppression pressed down on their bodies and even walking became difficult.
Suddenly, Qingfeng Li’s eyes lit up as he saw a cavern ahead of him.
Qingfeng Li said, “Black Puppy, hurry up and see if there are any demon beasts in there. If no demon beasts are in there, we can go in and rest.”
Nodding, Black Puppy turned into a tornado and dashed to the cavern. It extended its nose and activated its Ancestor Dog super power.
A moment later, Black Puppy said, “Qingfeng Li, the cavern is empty without a trace of any demon beasts. Let’s go in now.”
Nodding, Qingfeng Li carried the Sky Wolf Emperor into the cavern immediately.
The cavern was not big but very deep. It ran at least thousands of meters into the mountain.
From his interspatial ring, Qingfeng Li took out a night pearl which illuminated the whole cavern. Inside, they found that the cavern was covered by hard red rocks.
Spotting an open space, Qingfeng Li put the Sky Wolf Emperor down on the ground.
