While Xiao Huo shouted for help, his movements didn't stop and he continued running away.
Only when he saw the golden pagoda, as well as familiar figure of Li Yuan sitting in his chair did Xiao Huo relax.
With a stroke of his wings made out of fire, he increased his speed and landed next to him.
Behind, when Emperor Wu saw Xiao Huo acting like this, he also stopped in the air.
Looking below, he saw the golden pagoda, Mu Bingyuan and Li Yuan.
"Senior, is that young man a powerful cultivator?", he asked the transparent figure.
"No, he is just a mortal."
"That's good."
Emperor Wu trusted the transparent figure's judgment.
Even Saint cultivators would be unable to hide in front of it.
What he didn't know was that the golden pagoda had the function of hiding Li Yuan's cultivation.
The reason Ruan Ling was able to find his cultivation before was that Li Yuan had just broken through the Qi Condensing Realm and had forgotten to mask his cultivation.
Even cultivators in the Emperor realms would have trouble detecting Li Yuan's cultivation, let alone a Saint.
When Emperor Wu turned his head and saw Mu Bingyuan, he was a little surprised and a hint of fear flashed in his eyes.
As cultivators that were both at the peak of the Nascent Soul Realm, Emperor Wu had to admit that Mu Bingyuan was stronger than him.
Normally, Emperor Wu wouldn't dare to be disrespectful in front of her, but the ordinary man he had chased for so long was very weird.
Emperor Wu didn't dare to let him go.
Over the past few days, he had chased him for countless of kilometers in the Dark Mirror Forest.
Every time Emperor Wu came close to catching or killing him, a projection of an attack that had been imprinted on the forest would appear and save him.
This happened so many times that Emperor Wu had to start wondering whether Xiao Huo possessed a way to influence the Dark Mirror Forest.
Thinking of this, Emperor Wu's fear of Mu Bingyuan was suppressed.
Moreover, his cultivation had improved and he had the help of the transparent figure.
Emperor Wu was soon filled with confidence.
"I didn't expect that Fellow Taoist Mu would also be here."
"Fellow Taoist, this boy is very important for me. Don't make any mistakes."
His words contained a hint of threat, as he showed the high-grade Divine Weapon in his hand.
"Don't worry Emperor Wu, I won't interfere in your affairs."
Mu Bingyuan smiled slightly and waited to watch a good show.
It would be good if Emperor Wu fought against Li Yuan.
She would be able to see whether the Pavilion Owner was as mysterious as he seemed to be.
Emperor Wu didn't expect that Mu Bingyuan would be so cooperative, but he didn't want to continue pushing her.
He looked at Xiao Huo, who had relaxed completely and had a calm look, and sneered.
"Boy, I want to see who is going to save you now."
His hand holding the golden spear tightened and he was ready to attack, when suddenly, a voice interrupted his actions.
"Fellow Taoist, this isn't good."
"Fighting is forbidden inside the Heaven's Secret Pavilion."
"Please give me some face."
The one who spoke was the mortal young man he had previously ignored.
When he saw this, he became furious.
"Little kid, why should I give you face?"
"Not only will this boy die today, but you will die too."
"In your next life, don't speak arrogantly in front of powerful cultivators."
A mere mortal spoke to a Nascent Soul cultivator like this.
How could Emperor Wu stand this?
Holding the golden spear in his hand, he looked at Mu Bingyuan and when he saw that she didn't stop him, he sneered.
With a move of his hand, he was about to throw the spear towards Xiao Huo, nailing him to the ground.
He could already picture this scene.
What was surprising was that Xiao Huo didn't seem to care and didn't even try to dodge.
Even then, Emperor Wu's movements didn't stop.
"Fellow Taoist is too arrogant."
"I can only teach you a lesson today."
"Don't worry, I will spare your life."
A sighing voice reached Emperor Wu's ears.
At this moment, Li Yuan's eyes showed a purple light and for the first time, he used the Curse of Destiny in reality.
With the enhancement of strength inside the range of the golden pagoda, even Li Yuan didn't know how strong the curse will be.
Emperor Wu showed and sneer and wanted to say that he was overestimating his capabilities, when his intuition warned him of extreme danger.
In the blink of an eye, black smoke flowed out of everywhere around him and rushed towards him.
This black smoke was extremely strange and weird and tried to drill into his body.
When Emperor Wu saw this, he instinctively knew that if this black smoke entered his body, he would be in danger.
With a thought of his mind, his hand that was about to throw the spear stopped and the spear shone with a brilliant golden light.
A golden shield appeared in front of him, protecting him.
What's surprising is that even the golden shield was unable to defend against the black smoke and showed cracks the moment the two came into contact.
'What is this black smoke? Even a high-grade Divine Weapon can't defend against it.'
Emperor Wu was shocked.
However, he still reacted very fast.
Immediately, a red bow flew out of his body and shone with a red light.
Just like the golden spear, the red bow also created a red shield to protect him.
The two shields superimposed on each other, filling Emperor Wu with confidence.
"Click...click."
The sound of cracking woke Emperor Wu up.
When he looked down, he saw that his high-grade Divine Weapon, the golden spear was starting to show cracks on its surface.
Cold sweat ran down his spine and he knew that he had hit a wall.
"Senior, save me."
He shouted inwardly and his words were very similar to those of Xiao Huo before.
The transparent figure inside his body had the ability to see what happened around Emperor Wu and had already noticed the dangerous situation.
He hesitated for a bit, but then gritted its teeth and took action.
Since he didn't know if his life would be spared, he should help Emperor Wu escape.
The next second, a black light flew out of Emperor Wu's body.
This black light immediately overwhelmed the red and golden light and had a hint of inexplicable majesty.
Even Mu Bingyuan's eyes became solemn when the black light appeared and was ready to defend.
Just then, the black light wrapped around Emperor Wu, the golden spear and the red bow and escaped at a very fast speed.
Before Mu Bingyuan could react, Emperor Wu had disappeared on the horizon.
Li Yuan remained calm throughout this whole process and didn't stop him from leaving.
He had already noticed the existence of the transparent figure and didn't want to fight him to death.
Who knew how many tricks such a powerful cultivator had?
Even if he was able to take out an item that destroyed half the Xuan Continent, Li Yuan wouldn't be surprised.
"Pavilion Owner, you're so strong."
An excited voice sounded from the side.
It was Xiao Huo who was standing next to him.
At this time, Xiao Huo's eyes shone with little stars and he was filled with admiration.
When the black light appeared, Xiao Huo had the feeling that it could kill him easily.
Even his master wouldn't be able to fight against it.
However, this black light didn't even dare to take action against the Pavilion Owner and ran away in a hurry.
"This is how a strong man should act.", he thought secretly.
