玩丰满高大邻居人妻

Chapter 357 - Hidden

Li Huowang was the first to react, and he was also the one that the skinny man took notice of first. The man looked at Li Huowang before disappearing.

The moment he disappeared, Li Huowang felt his chin go cold.

His bronze coin veil has been hidden by the Muddled One!

Li Huowang reacted to it but now was not the time for him to think about it. He was in an extremely dangerous situation right now!

Blood surged into his brain as his body trembled. He looked at everyone around him. Ji Xiang, Hong Da, Tuoba Danqing, and Liu Zongyuan.

Fwoosh~

As he used his flint, Li Huowang felt his body being engulfed in flames, and a burning pain enveloped his body.

Kill them! They know that I’m a Strayed One now! I need to kill all of them and I must not let any of them escape!

Just as Li Huowang’s body started burning, Liu Zongyuan’s body shriveled up into a ball and escaped into the forest.

He wasn’t sure who did it, but at that moment, Li Huowang felt a strong force sending him flying backward.

As he was flying through the air, the burning Li Huowang bellowed and crushed his left eye, instantly covering everyone in an eerie light.

Seeing this, Ji Xiang grabbed the wish wood and pointed it at Li Huowang, only to realize that there was no effect.

Meanwhile, Li Huowang took out his sword as he prepared to chop off his own left arm.

“Er Jiu! What are you doing?!” A giant white impermanence shouted from within the forest.

“Stop wasting your breath! He’s being controlled!” Hong Da was very haggard as he stabbed himself with a rusted blade.

However, his words were enough to snap Li Huowang out of it. He looked at them in disbelief.

Wait, they can’t see that I’m a Strayed One?

At that moment, Li Huowang suddenly recalled one specific item.

He remembered the spindle that Zhuge Yuan had given him. Back then, Zhuge Yuan had pointed at his bronze coin veil and said that the spindle would be much more effective compared to his bronze coin veil.

It was only now that Li Huowang understood what he had meant at that point in time.

The reason why they didn’t know he was a Strayed One was because of the spindle that Zhuge Yuan had given to him.

Li Huowang looked down and saw that his bag of torture tools was also burning. The bag had almost been destroyed by the fire.

I can’t let it drop from my body.

With this in mind, Li Huowang quickly took the spindle out of the bag.

But then he realized a problem. He needed to place it somewhere safe on him, but he didn’t even have his own skin, much less a pocket.

After a moment of thought, he finally decided to tear open a section of his flesh before placing the spindle inside his abdomen.

Once done, he slowly approached everyone. “Guys, it\'s fine. I just defeated the Daoist that tried to take control of me.”

“Stop there!” Ji Xiang was still in shock as he pointed his golden abacus at the fiery Li Huowang. “I don’t care if you are awake or not, just stand there!”

When they saw Li Huowang just standing there quietly as told, Ji Xiang discussed something with Liu Zongyuan and Hong Da.

Li Huowang wasn’t sure what they were discussing, and so he grew more and more concerned about how to put out the fire on his body.

He suddenly thought about a method and pulled out the Profound Records that was embedded within his body.

Once the Profound Record was thrown onto the ground, the raging fire on Li Huowang’s body was soon snuffed out.

At this point, since it had only been a short time since he set himself on fire, Li Huowang still had some of his skin remaining intact. Even so, Li Huowang looked like a candle that had just started to melt.

While this was still painful, it was much better than when he had been nearly completely burnt into charcoal.

“Thankfully I brought some spare clothes.”

Just as he thought this, Li Huowang looked back and saw that the carriage was on fire.

“Sigh.” Li Huowang had nothing to say as he used the Fiery Scripture to heal himself.

As the wax crawled across his skin, Li Huowang remembered Zhuge Yuan.

Not only did he see through my identity and not capture me, he even gave me the spindle to help hide myself. Is his kindness real?

A warm feeling appeared in Li Huowang’s heart.

Li Huowang suddenly felt like he wanted to meet Zhuge Yuan again. There were many things he wanted to discuss with him.

“Er Jiu.”

Li Huowang turned around and saw the three of them approaching him. They had finished their discussion.

“Er Jiu, could you determine who it was that tried to take control of you just now?” Ji Xiang’s tone was serious.

“Yeah, I saw a bald Daoist trying to harm me.” Li Huowang flat out lied.

“Hmm...” Ji Xiang thought about it for a moment, before sighing. “FIne, let’s go back. We can talk about it later.”

Once everyone agreed all of them started walking on the dirt path.

However, they still didn’t trust Li Huowang as they surrounded him.

They had just taken two steps when Li Huowang stopped and asked them. “Wait, do any of you remember what our mission was?”

Hong Da was also curious and looked at Ji Xiang. “I only remembered that Ji Xiang summoned us, but not anything else.”

“I was also summoned by Ji Xiang. Lord Ji Xiang, what is our mission this time?” Liu Zongyuan asked.

Li Huowang also looked at Ji Xiang. He too remembered nothing else besides the fact that Ji Xiang had called for them. Ji Xiang had promised him that once the mission was over, he would give Li Huowang the information about the Sitting Oblivion Dao. Without such a reward, Li Huowang would have never accepted a mission with such vague details and rewards.

With the three of them staring at him, Ji Xiang became serious as he wiped the ashes off his face. He was thinking hard.

“I... I can’t remember.” Ji Xiang was unsure. “Why did I call the two of you again?”

Hearing this, Li Huowang and Hong Da looked at each other. They didn’t know why either. Ji Xiang called both of them out, but forgot why he had even summoned them in the first place.

Are the superiors all this frivolous?

“Never mind that. Let’s first find a village and we can discuss from there later on. Now that we don’t have a carriage, we need to walk faster or we will have to camp outside tonight,” said Ji Xiang.

Li Huowang and Hong Da also stopped hesitating and picked up their pace when they saw the weather.
