As soon as Dong Chuanjiang opened his mouth, people’s eyes fell on Leng Yu again . Although they were not a match for the old monsters, they could still get whatever they left behind such as the old rare books that were of little use to them .
“It’s not extinguishing, but taming,” Leng Yu looked at Mu Yi . Her words surprised the people around her . The old monsters were in shock . They knew how fierce Nanming Li Fire was . They couldn’t do anything about it, let alone a young man .
They didn’t think the young man could pull it off, even if he had extraordinary ability .
“Leng Yu, are you kidding?” Xu Hai asked .
“You’ll know soon . ” Leng Yu turned her gaze at Mu Yi as she said .
Mu Yi was puzzled . He didn’t expect to draw so much attention when he came, but he understood that the people had some sort of issue and Leng Yu sold him out .
Mu Yi was used to it since Leng Yu did it so often, but he was curious about what the Nanming Li Fire was .
When he entered the chamber, the copper lamp changed . If he hadn’t suppressed it, the copper lamp would have alarmed others .
‘The Nanming Li Fire must have some connection with the copper lamp . ’

It was clear that was Leng Yu’s real purpose for making him come to King Xian’s tomb .
No wonder Mu Yi couldn’t figure it out before . With Leng Yu’s strength, she didn’t need him . He was useless against the old monsters . The goal had always been the Nanming Li Fire .
“I seem to have missed a good show,” Mu Yi suddenly said, looking at the giant tripod surrounded by several people .
“Boy, if you have a way to subdue the Nanming Li Fire, I promise no one will touch you,” Xu Hai said, looking at Mu Yi .
“Thank you very much . ” In the face of a promise for protection, Mu Yi wouldn’t refuse . Ning Wuque was hostile towards him for some unknown reason . He would rather avoid facing the man in the future .
Still, he had to take care of the Nanming Li Fire first; otherwise, the deal was off the table .
A hint of unhappiness flashed through Ning Wuque’s eyes, but he didn’t say anything . Mu Yi saw a hidden and deeper killing intent . If there was a chance, Ning Wuque would certainly not let him go . Xu Hai’s guarantee didn’t mean much to Ning Wuque . Mu Yi looked at Leng Yu as she was behind all of this, and Mu Yi couldn’t guarantee that the copper lamp would be able to subdue Nanming Li Fire . What if something happened in the process?
In the face of the old monsters, Mu Yi wouldn’t be overcautious .
‘Nanming Li Fire is also called Vermilion Bird Fire . This is a great chance for you,’ Leng Yu’s voice appeared in Mu Yi’s mind .
Hearing Leng Yu’s words, Mu Yi’s eyes suddenly brightened . Nanming Li Fire, Vermilion Bird fire, copper lamp, and Envoy of the Vermilion Bird’s Flag: Mu Yi didn’t need to be smart to connect all these things together . It was likely that the Nanming Li Fire was something that the copper lamp couldn’t wait to swallow .

The saying went, “Everything has a vanquisher . ” Maybe it would be a little bit tricky for the old monsters to handle Nanming Li Fire, but it would be much easier for Mu Yi .
Mu Yi went to the tripod, and everyone made way for him . Now they could see that Mu Yi was obviously related to Leng Yu . Even if they were jealous of Mu Yi, they couldn’t do anything in the tomb with Leng Yu and Xu Hai there .
While approaching the tripod, Mu Yi the fluctuation of the copper lamp grew more and more intense as if it wanted to break from his control . A strong desire suddenly rose in Mu Yi’s heart, like the feeling of starvation, from the copper lamp .
Mu Yi was even more curious about the Nanming Li Fire in the giant tripod .
When Mu Yi arrived at the giant tripod, he saw the light blue flame burning in it . There was a loud noise in his mind, as if something had exploded . Then the copper lamp could not be suppressed any more and flew out of his cloth bag . When Mu Yi came to his senses, the copper lamp was floating in front of him and there was a change in the Nanming Li Fire like a flicker of fear .
“What treasure is this?”
Everyone looked at the copper lamp . Many of them had heard of Mu Yi’s name and knew that Mu Yi had a powerful magic weapon . Seeing that the copper lamp could control the Nanming Li Fire, they were tempted .
“That’s it . ”
Xu Hai looked at the copper lamp in a trance then he gave Mu Yi a meaningful glance . He knew of the copper lamp and the old Taoist Priest .
Ning Wuque no longer covered up the killing intent in his eyes . Before the crowd came to their senses, he pointed his sword at Mu Yi .
“That’s enough . ” Xu Hai frowned . He struck at Ning Wuque across the distance . It looked like a light that floated without any power, but Ning Wuque’s face suddenly changed . He withdrew his attack as his fingers were faintly stained with a layer of metallic luster .

With a slight sound, Ning Wuque drew back his fingers and put his hands behind his back . However, Mu Yi noticed that his fingers were trembling under his sleeve . He’d been hit .
Xu Hai did not attack again . It was obvious that he was the stronger of the two .
To others, the strike seemed powerless, but Mu Yi knew that Xu Hai and Ning Wuque’s powers were so great that they could invert power and disguise their attacks . He felt it when they began to fight and knew that he wouldn’t have been able to take Xu Hai’s attack easily . He had a new understanding of the strength of the old monsters . No matter how careful he was, it would not be enough .
“Thank you for your help,” Mu Yi immediately thanked Xu Hai .
“You are welcome . After all, you’re my friend’s son, and I promised I’d protect you . Naturally, I would not allow others to bully you,” Xu Hai said lightly, as if he had done a trivial thing .
“Ning Lunatic, don’t you know he’s my man?” Leng Yu suddenly said .
“So what?” Ning Wuque didn’t lose his temper at Xu Hai, but it didn’t mean he had no temper .
“How dare you try to attack him!” Her right hand suddenly went up, but Ning Wuque’s expression changed . His peach wood sword shot out of its sheath on his back and cut like lightning .
“Ding!”
Peach wood sword flew up again and a spark flashed at the same time . An embroidery needle had blocked the peach wood sword .
“You…” Ning Wuque hadn’t expected Leng Yu to make a direct move . She was furious . However, when he saw Leng Yu raise her hand again, he retreated immediately and stayed far away from Leng Yu .
“Coward,” Qin Sanchao sneered .
Ning Wuque’s expression was uncertain for a while, but he didn’t continue to be angry . He understood his situation . In a short time, he had offended Xu Hai and Leng Yu . If he offended Qin Sanchao as well, he would get nothing from King Xian’s tomb .
If the three of them joined forces, he might not be able to leave alive either .
However, Dong Chuanjiang didn’t speak, but his eyes twinkled with ideas .
Mu Yi didn’t expect that Leng Yu would suddenly defend him . Although it was only one move, Leng Yu’s strength still surprised him . She deserved to be an expert that had rebuilt the chakras . Mu Yi even thought that Leng Yu was much strong though they had about the same levels in terms of chakras .
No wonder she had the courage to compete with the old monsters .
“Well, now this young man can concentrate on subduing the Nanming Li Fire,” Xu Hai said . After he saw the copper lamp, he had no doubt .
The other’s didn’t speak, staring at the copper lamp . Mu Yi could feel the eyes behind him, full of greed .
If it wasn’t for Xu Hai, or Leng Yu, they would have attacked him for it .
Mu Yi took a deep breath . A vision of a boundless sea of fire surfaced in his mind after he saw the Nanming Li Fire and the copper lamp flew out of his cloth bag .
Even if it was only a vision, Mu Yi felt the heat . It seemed that the fire had been burning forever . Until one day, the fire suddenly started raging across the sky .
