Hearing the words of the middle-aged man, Ling Mo Xie couldn't help but look at him in surprise and said, "How do you know? Moreover, how could the Feng Family have something so precious?"
The middle-aged man sighed upon hearing Ling Mo Xie's question, leaned against the cage, and with a smirk said, "The Feng Family is not as simple as it appears on the surface. A Feng Family like this could not have captured me back then; I just don't know what else they are hiding."
"Not as simple as it appears?" Ling Mo Xie stroked his chin and began to ponder, but he truly couldn't think of what the Feng Family was hiding; after all, he knew too little.
Whatever it was, what mattered most to him now was how to escape. When those two from the Feng Family returned, they would definitely not let him off easily!
Ling Mo Xie looked at the sturdy cage before him and murmured, "The Fire of Absolute Yang? If that's the case, it might be worth a try!"
Shangguan Ying'er looked at Ling Mo Xie's expression and exclaimed in surprise, "Do you have a way?"
"Don't worry, I won't let them do anything to you; there's no need to be afraid!" Ling Mo Xie turned his head and raised his eyebrows at Shangguan Ying'er, then frowned and said softly, "But I can't guarantee that my method will definitely succeed!"
"Forget it, let's just try!" Ling Mo Xie muttered to himself softly, directing his thoughts towards the Celestial Servant system in the system panel. This Fire of Absolute Yang could only be sought from Hong Chi.
However, although Hong Chi's flames were quite good, Ling Mo Xie didn't know if they were truly the Fire of Absolute Yang, so he could only hold onto a mindset of giving it a try.
Soon, a vortex appeared before Ling Mo Xie, slightly glowing with a fiery red hue.
A spark floated out from that vortex and soon transformed into a humanoid figure.
"Boss? What's going on? Where is this?" Hong Chi asked with a candied hawthorn stick in his mouth, looking around helplessly and pouting.
"Don't worry about what's going on; just try using your flames to see if you can melt this cage!" Ling Mo Xie pointed directly at the cage.
Hong Chi looked at the cage in front of him, disdainfully curling his lips and said, "Isn't it just metal? Fire overcomes metal; this is too easy, right?"
The middle-aged man who spoke earlier and Shangguan Ying'er were both astonished, their eyes wide open as they watched Ling Mo Xie conjure Hong Chi out of thin air. Was this... a spatial technique?
In the cultivation world, the power of space is a very advanced force, typically only mastered by experts who are about to ascend!
However, the middle-aged man shook his head after looking at Ling Mo Xie's summoned Hong Chi. What use is bringing such a child here? It would only result in one more person getting captured.
Hearing Hong Chi's boastful words, Ling Mo Xie couldn't help but feel a bit helpless and said, "You'll know once you try; this is not an ordinary metal."
Feeling somewhat speechless, Hong Chi was indeed quite Not Bad, but after all, he was still a child with a child's temperament. The smooth sailing earlier had made him somewhat arrogant.
"Let's give it a try!" Hong Chi declared, and immediately a flickering orange-yellow flame appeared in his hand. Without any visible movement from Hong Chi, the flame surged towards the cage.
Soon, the flames completely wrapped around the cage, continuously dancing and burning. Ling Mo Xie could also feel the temperature around him rising rapidly as his Health Points decreased steadily.
"I didn't expect this kid to have such abilities! Is he not just a child but someone who has cultivated some special technique?" The middle-aged man was even more astonished now, muttering to himself as he watched Hong Chi.
At that moment, Shangguan Ying'er was clinging to the iron cage that held her captive, staring intently at Ling Mo Xie, cheering, "Go for it! Hong Chi, you're doing great!"
However, Hong Chi gradually furrowed his brows. The flames were emitted by him, so he could sense the condition of the cage best. Yet despite his flames burning fiercely, there were no signs of the cage melting at all.
Inside the cage, Ling Mo Xie could naturally sense the situation as well. Looking at the rising flames around him, he said to Hong Chi, "It seems that ordinary flames won't work. Don't you know how to use Three Flavors True Fire? Try that!"
Hearing Mo Xie's words, Xiao Chi reluctantly said, "But using the Three Flavors True Fire consumes a lot of energy. I'm always so exhausted after using it!"
"Look at the time! Do you really want to watch your boss die?" Mo Xie glared, his expression hurt as he spoke to Xiao Chi.
Xiao Chi stuck out his tongue and could only follow Mo Xie's instructions. He closed his eyes, gathered his energy, spread his palm, and a pulsating Three-Colored Flame emerged from his palm.
As soon as the flame appeared, the temperature around them seemed to rise significantly.
"I haven't mastered the Three Flavors True Fire yet, so to avoid burning you along with it, I can only use a small flame to burn this cage!" Xiao Chi said seriously, being extra cautious in his movements.
Shangguan Ying'er was merely watching expectantly as the flame in Xiao Chi's hand gradually approached the iron cage. Meanwhile, the middle-aged man inside the cage had his eyes wide open in shock. What? The Three Flavors True Fire!
He felt that everything he knew in life had been overturned. This seemingly ordinary boy could use spatial magic, and not only could this child manipulate fire, but he could also wield the Three Flavors True Fire!
The Three Flavors True Fire was renowned in the cultivation world; it was said to be the fire used by immortals for alchemy. In the cultivation realm, it was almost considered the king of flames—powerful and fierce, perfect for attacks!
As expected of its illustrious reputation, when the flame in Xiao Chi's hand got closer to the cage, it emitted a sizzling sound and even released wisps of white smoke.
"What’s going on?" Mo Xie asked in confusion. Why wasn't the metal melting but instead smoking?
The middle-aged man observed this situation with renewed excitement in his eyes. "That's right! That's right! This Dongbin Xuan Iron has an icy metallic nature; naturally, when it encounters fire, it will smoke. This is a sign that it might melt!"
"Is that so? Then put in more effort! If this continues, we might be able to escape before they return," Mo Xie urged Xiao Chi quickly.
"Got it!" Hong Chi nodded, the flames of the Three Flavors True Fire in his hand flaring slightly, licking at the once-solid cage, with drops of molten iron falling to the ground like ink.
However, the Three Flavors True Fire in Hong Chi's hand began to sway, uncontrollably expanding for a moment. Fortunately, Hong Chi quickly stabilized it.
In the past, when using the Three Flavors True Fire against enemies, he would simply throw it out; after all, they were enemies, and as long as it could burn them to death, it didn't matter if the flames were somewhat uncontrollable. Besides, he was a Fire Spirit body, so no fire could harm him.
But now he couldn't do that, and this difficult-to-control Three Flavors True Fire made it extremely challenging for Hong Chi to use, and his speed was not fast.
After a long time, the cage holding Ling Mo Xie was finally melted through by Hong Chi, creating a large hole. Ling Mo Xie leaped out from that hole and said to Hong Chi, "Quickly save your sister Ying Er! Those two from the Feng Family have been gone for quite some time; they should be back soon!"
"Understood!" Hong Chi wiped the sweat from his forehead, realizing that this was not the time to be willful. He didn't complain much and immediately directed the Three Flavors True Fire at the cage holding Shangguan Ying'er.
This time he was more skilled; before long, Shangguan Ying'er was also rescued. However, at that moment, footsteps could be heard from outside.
Ling Mo Xie's expression tightened. There were no other guards here; it was clear that this place was likely a forbidden area within the Feng Family. Others from the Feng Family probably wouldn't come here. Those footsteps... must be the Wind Family Head and Wind Second Master returning!
Ling Mo Xie glanced around; the entire Underground Hall was visible at a glance with no place to hide. In a moment of desperation, he grabbed Shangguan Ying'er's wrist and dashed toward the passage they had come from.
The passage twisted and turned with many complex connections; even for the Wind Family Head himself, finding them would not be easy!
Hong Chi immediately transformed into a ball of flame and followed Ling Mo Xie into that passage.
Behind them came the voice of a middle-aged man calling out, "Don't forget about us!"
"Don't worry, once we escape, we will definitely come back to save you!" Ling Mo Xie had already disappeared, leaving only this echoing statement behind.
The Wind Family Head and the Wind Second Master were certainly not deaf; they heard the voice as well. Their expressions changed, and after exchanging a glance, they quickened their pace towards the hall where Ling Mo Xie was imprisoned.
Looking at the two cages that had been melted through with a large hole, their faces turned ashen, veins bulging on the backs of their hands.
"Big Brother, if they escape, we will be in trouble!" the Wind Second Master said, his voice trembling slightly.
"Not just trouble; it will be a huge problem!" The Wind Family Head stared intently at the destroyed cage and said in a calm voice.
After a while, he closed his eyes and took a deep breath. "Send people into the maze to search! We must not let them escape!"
Upon hearing the Wind Family Head's words, the Wind Second Master looked puzzled and said, "Big Brother, who should we send to search this place...?"
The Wind Family Head glared at him. "What time is it now? If it comes to worst, we'll just have to eliminate all witnesses! We'll call those House Servants from the Feng Family to search. It doesn't matter if they find out about this place; dead men tell no tales! But if Ling Mo Xie escapes, our Feng Family will inevitably face extermination! Think it over!"
"Yes! Big Brother, I will go find someone right now!" After hearing the Wind Family Head's words, the Wind Second Master no longer dared to hesitate; he was afraid of dying too!
Right now, Ling Mo Xie had a high reputation in Izumo Kingdom and enjoyed the trust of the Izumo King. If he used these forces against the Feng Family, they would be utterly defenseless!
