"I’m complimenting you, definitely complimenting you," Xing Chen said with certainty.
"Just make your move. If anything unexpected happens again, it won't be good," Meng Xiner rolled her eyes, then her delicate figure moved and appeared in front of Yunxiao Stronghold and the others.
"It’s you! You actually dare to come back?" Azure Sky Eagle's eyes were filled with anger. If it weren't for these two, how could his subordinates have suffered such heavy losses?
"I came to thank you. You helped me out a lot, so of course I need to express my gratitude," Meng Xiner said with a cute smile. The moment Xing Chen saw that smile, he knew that Azure Sky Eagle and the others were in trouble.
Every time Meng Xiner showed that adorable smile, it meant that someone else was about to face misfortune. After spending so much time with her, Xing Chen had naturally come to understand her personality.
"Damn it, you shameless woman, how dare you bring this up? I’ll strip you bare and make you suffer humiliation until you die," Azure Sky Eagle said with a sinister expression.
However, despite his words, Azure Sky Eagle did not make any move. He was severely injured and his strength greatly diminished. Although the two people in front of him seemed to only possess Earth Soul Realm power, Azure Sky Eagle had no intention of underestimating them.
He knew that when the Venomous Giant Scorpion chased the two here just now, it had already lost one eye. If these two really only had Earth Soul Realm cultivation, how could they possibly injure the Venomous Giant Scorpion?
"Hmph, you will pay for what you just said," Meng Xiner's cute face was now covered with a layer of frost; clearly, Azure Sky Eagle's words had touched her bottom line.
"I want to see what you can do to me. Even though I’m injured, I’m not someone a mere Earth Soul Realm girl like you can harm," Azure Sky Eagle forced himself to stand straight and looked coldly at Meng Xiner.
"I would rather just eliminate them!" At this moment, Xing Chen, who had been silent, finally spoke up.
"Do you think everyone is as cold-blooded as you? I’m so kind-hearted; how could I possibly kill someone?" Meng Xiner pouted.
Her words left Xing Chen speechless again. He understood Meng Xiner somewhat; while it was true she didn’t kill people, she enjoyed torturing them, which was even worse than killing them outright.
"There’s no time for your nonsense; let’s just take them out!" Xing Chen ignored Meng Xiner and pointed forward. In an instant, the starlight from the night sky condensed into a finger seemingly made of countless stars, rushing towards Azure Sky Eagle.
Azure Sky Eagle's expression changed. He also pointed forward in response.
"Sky Piercing Finger!"
This finger seemed to pierce through the clouds and mist, appearing faintly yet standing tall in the sky above.
This is the signature move of Azure Sky Eagle, Sky Piercing Finger, an Earth-Level Intermediate Martial Art, which possesses immense power. The moment it was unleashed, it collided fiercely with Xing Chen's Shattering Star Finger.
Bang!
Xing Chen's body shook slightly, while Azure Sky Eagle was instantly sent flying backward, crashing into a large tree behind him and spitting out a mouthful of blood.
If he had not been injured, Xing Chen would have been no match for Azure Sky Eagle. However, at this moment, Azure Sky Eagle was severely wounded and had lost nearly all of his strength, making it impossible for him to contend with Xing Chen.
Just as Xing Chen attacked Azure Sky Eagle, Meng Xiner had also dealt with the other members of Yunxiao Stronghold. At this point, only Azure Sky Eagle remained alive; the others had not even had time to unleash their final secret techniques before being eliminated by Meng Xiner.
"Wait for me! I, Azure Sky Eagle, will never let you go!" Azure Sky Eagle stood up, glaring fiercely at Xing Chen and his companion. Then he suddenly transformed into a streak of blood light and vanished.
"It's Blood Shadow Escape!"
Meng Xiner's face showed surprise, followed by a resentful glance in the direction Azure Sky Eagle had fled.
Since Azure Sky Eagle had escaped, the Venomous Giant Scorpion naturally belonged to Xing Chen and Meng Xiner. The two did not linger on the topic of Azure Sky Eagle but instead began to divide the spoils directly.
"Hey, just so you know in advance, I absolutely won't give up the Venomous Pearl, Venomous Claw, and Venomous Stinger," Meng Xiner said, looking at Xing Chen with a hint of vigilance in her eyes. After all, with treasures at stake, it was very possible that Xing Chen might turn against her, so she had to be cautious.
"You've taken all the good stuff; what am I supposed to get?" Meng Xiner was quite unreserved in her approach, demanding all the best items right from the start.
"How about you give me those three items, and everything else is yours?" Meng Xiner's face flushed slightly; she clearly realized that her demands might be a bit excessive.
"How about you give me those three items and everything else is yours? What do you think?" Instead of answering her directly, Xing Chen countered with a question.
"But I'm a girl; can't you just let me have this?" Meng Xiner looked at Xing Chen with a pitiful expression. However, how could Xing Chen fall for this? He immediately rejected her without hesitation.
"Hmph!" Meng Xiner snorted but knew that it was impossible to take all three items. So she could only take a step back and said, "Then I'll take the Venomous Pearl and Venomous Stinger; you can have the Venomous Claw. How about we split the rest equally?"
"No way; you're being insincere." Xing Chen shook his head. The most valuable items on the Venomous Giant Scorpion were indeed the Venomous Pearl and Venomous Stinger. Although the Venomous Claw was also good, it paled in comparison to the value of the Venomous Pearl.
"You..." Meng Xiner was furious but took a deep breath and managed to control her anger. She knew that now was not the time to fall out with Xing Chen; otherwise, he would definitely not help her once they entered the Inheritance area.
"I only want the Venomous Pearl; you can have everything else, right?" Meng Xiner said, suppressing her anger.
The Venomous Pearl is the essence condensed from the Venomous Giant Scorpion, and its value is higher than that of both the Venomous Claw and the Venomous Stinger combined.
"No way," Xing Chen shook his head and continued, "I want the Venomous Pearl; you can have everything else."
The Venomous Pearl not only contains the essence of the entire Venomous Giant Scorpion but also grants immunity to all poisons when worn. Being with Meng Xiner, Xing Chen's biggest concern was being poisoned, so he had to get his hands on this Venomous Pearl.
"Fine, it's just the Venomous Pearl. I'll give it to you, but you can't expect to have anything else," Meng Xiner glared fiercely at Xing Chen. This rascal was infuriating; at that moment, she almost wanted to confront him directly, but fortunately, reason prevailed over impulse.
"It doesn't matter; as long as I have the Venomous Pearl, I won't be afraid of you poisoning me," Xing Chen shrugged and then took out the Lonely Star Sword to begin 'dissecting' the Venomous Giant Scorpion.
Meng Xiner stood by, fuming and showing no intention of helping. After a while, Xing Chen finally broke through the skin of the Venomous Giant Scorpion and extracted the Venomous Pearl, then glanced at Meng Xiner.
"The rest is yours; I'm taking the Venomous Pearl," Xing Chen said as he placed the Venomous Pearl into his Storage Ring under Meng Xiner's furious gaze.
Although the Mysterious Jade Pendant in Xing Chen's body also provided immunity to toxins, he couldn't control that thing. If he were poisoned and it didn't activate, he would die unjustly. Now that he had this Venomous Pearl, it was different; he wouldn't have to rely on the Mysterious Jade Pendant anymore to be immune to poisons.
"Let's go!" Meng Xiner stored the entire Venomous Giant Scorpion into her Storage Ring and shot a displeased glance at Xing Chen.
With the most valuable item from the Venomous Giant Scorpion taken by Xing Chen, she naturally had a sour expression towards him now.
Xing Chen appeared indifferent; after all, he had achieved his goal and didn't care about how Meng Xiner felt.
This time went surprisingly smoothly; they encountered no dangers along the way and safely reached the mountain summit. Although they came across many people and various forces on their journey, Xing Chen and Meng Xiner remained hidden in the shadows and were not discovered.
"Now that we are at the summit, where exactly is Thunderfire Deity's Inheritance?" Xing Chen asked with a puzzled expression as he looked at Meng Xiner. They had arrived at Nine Heavens Cloud Mountain, but he hadn't seen anything related to the Inheritance.
"Nine Heavens Cloud Mountain, Thunderfire Secret Cave, Thunderfire Clash, Inheritance begins!" Meng Xiner said lightly as she gazed into the distance.
Xing Chen was slightly taken aback but then understood. Arriving at Nine Heavens Cloud Mountain was just the first step; next, they needed to find the Thunderfire Secret Cave. The only thing still puzzling him was what exactly Thunderfire Clash meant.
"The Thunderfire Secret Cave should be directly north; as for its exact location, I'm not sure," Meng Xiner continued.
At this moment, many people had already arrived at Nine Heavens Cloud Mountain, and everyone was searching for the location of the Thunderfire Secret Cave. Although Meng Xiner knew that the Thunderfire Secret Cave was directly to the north, she still needed to search for its exact location.
Xing Chen felt helpless and could only follow Meng Xiner in searching for the Thunderfire Secret Cave. At this point, he began to envy the royal family; that map must clearly mark the location of the Thunderfire Secret Cave. If he had that map, he wouldn't have to go through so much trouble searching.
"Do you feel it getting hotter?" Xing Chen glanced at Meng Xiner and spoke.
As they moved forward, Xing Chen felt increasingly hot, while Meng Xiner in front seemed unaffected, not a single drop of sweat visible on her.
"That's because we are getting closer to the Thunderfire Secret Cave," Meng Xiner said, turning back to glance at Xing Chen. Seeing him drenched in sweat made her smile slightly.
"You lucky Rascal, I wonder how you aren't hot at all," Xing Chen said, feeling quite unbalanced as he looked at Meng Xiner.
"Hmph!" Meng Xiner snorted and did not answer Xing Chen's question. It was clear that she held a grudge and had not forgotten how Xing Chen had refused to share their spoils with her.
