Huo Feng searched in that direction for a long time but found no trace of ice, which made him increasingly worried.
He searched the entire mountain range surrounding Xiaoyao Fortress until deep into the night, but still had no clues. Huo Feng felt anxious and thought, could it be that ice was captured by someone? But with ice's strength, it was impossible for there to be no sign at all.
Just as Huo Feng was anxiously searching, a loud roar suddenly echoed through the air. Huo Feng immediately became alert because he recognized the sound as "Dragon Roar," which must have come from ice.
The sound came from the east of Huo Feng's current position, and he quickly flew in that direction. However, after that one roar, there was no further sound, which made Huo Feng even more anxious. He quickly summoned Phantom Butterfly and combined with it while flying, increasing his speed even more.
But when Huo Feng arrived at the spot where the sound had come from, there was nothing there. He closed his eyes and let his hands hang down; at that moment, a silver-white Origin Force radiated from his body, spreading outwards.
Suddenly, Huo Feng opened his eyes wide and fixed his gaze on a certain direction, whispering with blood-red eyes: "Underworld Palace, I haven't come looking for you yet, but you dare to come looking for me? Fine, I'll let you know the consequences of seeking death."
Huo Feng then flew straight towards Underworld City. Although he couldn't be 100% sure it was Underworld Palace's people, he sensed that ice's direction was indeed towards Underworld Palace. Moreover, only Underworld Palace on this entire continent had the strength to capture ice.
A long time had passed since Huo Feng went to search for ice without returning, which made Zhao Alliance Leader and Zhou Wu, who had established a temporary base at Xiaoyao Fortress, very worried.
"Is it possible that your brother Huo Feng took that Frost Dragon directly to Underworld Palace?" Rofu paced back and forth in the meeting hall of Xiaoyao Fortress.
Zhou Wu nodded in agreement. However, Zhao Alliance Leader remained concerned and said: "This is not good. No matter what happens, we must prepare for the worst. After all, if we fail this time, we will face years of war."
"Leader, then why didn't you let me persist back then?" Rofu asked in confusion.
Zhao Alliance Leader walked to the door and looked at the night sky: "That was to stabilize Huo Feng's mind. Didn't I ask you to keep an eye on Huo Feng's movements? Why hasn't anyone reported back yet?"
At that moment, two members of Free Alliance arrived. Rofu quickly approached them and asked: "Brother Li Shang, are you back? And Brother Meiyuan, where is Brother Huo Feng now?"
The man stepped forward and said: "Leader, Brother Luo, we haven't seen Brother Huo Feng or any sign of ice. However, for some reason, he is anxiously heading towards Underworld Palace."
As soon as these words were spoken, Zhao Alliance Leader, Rofu, and Zhou Wu all frowned. Rofu immediately looked at Zhao Alliance Leader and asked, "Leader, what should we do now?"
Zhao Alliance Leader was not worried about Huo Feng encountering any issues in the short term, so he turned to Li Shang and asked, "Aren't you responsible for the area around Underworld City? Did something major happen there?"
Li Shang bowed to Zhao Alliance Leader and replied, "Leader, one of our brothers was hiding on a mountain five hundred miles away from Underworld City when he accidentally discovered Underworld Palace's Master talking to a light blue Frost Dragon. He used his Contract Beast to hide inside it and overheard their conversation. The Frost Dragon could actually speak human language and even called Underworld Palace's Master 'dad.'"
"That's impossible; you must be mistaken. That dragon has been a sworn brother with Huo Feng for many years; it can't be true." Upon hearing Li Shang's words, Rofu immediately rebutted, as he still had absolute faith in Huo Feng.
In fact, Zhou Wu also found it hard to believe. The idea of a dragon speaking human language was absurd, let alone calling Lu Hui 'dad.' They had dealt with Lu Hui for many years and had never heard of him having children, much less a dragon.
Zhao Alliance Leader fell silent, deep in thought. Rofu's impatience got the better of him as he exclaimed, "Leader, our brother must have made a mistake. Could it be an illusion? Are we waiting here for Huo Feng's triumphant return or what?"
Zhao Alliance Leader raised his head and said seriously, "Regardless of whether it's true or not, Huo Feng is indeed heading towards Underworld City. And have you forgotten that Huo Feng is the Golden Wyvern? He is the embodiment of both humans and dragons, so anything is possible. That Frost Dragon named Bing might have ulterior motives regarding Huo Feng."
After Zhao Alliance Leader's analysis, Rofu and Zhou Wu felt a chill run down their spines. If Bing truly had such schemes in mind, the impact on Huo Feng would be devastating; after all, they knew that Huo Feng cared deeply about this brother.
Rofu quickly asked, "So what should we do, Leader?"
Zhao Alliance Leader felt the situation was too serious and quickly gave orders: "Li Shang, go find that brother immediately; we will gather at Underworld City. Rofu, arrange for about ten capable individuals to come with me to Underworld City to assist Huo Feng."
Then Zhao Alliance Leader turned to Zhou Wu and said, "Young City Lord, I leave this place in your hands. I initially wanted to keep Rofu here, but if this matter turns out to be true, it will be too tricky. It's safer to bring him along."
Zhou Wu clasped his hands together and replied to Zhao Alliance Leader, "Leader Zhao, you are too kind. I will take full responsibility for these matters. Moreover, we owe Huo Feng a great debt in Treeheart City; we cannot repay it with anything less than our utmost effort."
Soon after, Rofu selected ten individuals and brought them to Zhao Alliance Leader's side. At that moment, Zhao Alliance Leader addressed the other members of Free Alliance loudly: "We are heading to Underworld City to face a significant challenge. Those who remain will follow Young City Lord Zhou Wu's commands from Treeheart City; no one is allowed to disobey."
"Wishing the Leader a safe journey; we will certainly follow Young City Lord's arrangements."
In the Xiaoyao Fortress, everyone in the Free Alliance spoke loudly.
After everything was arranged, Zhao Alliance Leader waved his hand, and a group of thirteen quickly flew towards Underworld City.
············
A hint of dawn rose in the east, signaling the end of a tense night, but the situation remained unresolved.
At this moment, Huo Feng could see a hidden city not far away; that was Underworld City. Huo Feng quickly arrived at the secret passage leading into Underworld City. Upon reaching this place, Huo Feng sensed the icy aura growing stronger, so he recalled his Contract Beast, Phantom Butterfly, and swiftly entered Underworld City.
Upon entering Underworld City, it was unclear whether it was too early or for some other reason, but the streets were completely deserted. All the doors of the houses were tightly shut. Huo Feng paid no mind to this; his only concern was for Bing's safety.
Thus, Huo Feng continued to pursue the icy aura and soon reached the deepest part of Underworld City. There, he saw a massive square that could accommodate tens of thousands of people. In front of him stood a gigantic city gate with a large plaque bearing the words "Underworld Palace."
Huo Feng did not approach Underworld Palace but instead stood at the edge of the square, vigilantly observing his surroundings because he sensed Bing's aura nearby.
At that moment, a boisterous laughter echoed.
"Hahaha... I knew you would come. You truly are a dragon with deep feelings, but today I will ensure you have no way back."
As the voice faded, a figure appeared in mid-air at the center of the square; it was Lu Hui, the Master of Underworld Palace. Two others soon appeared on either side of Lu Hui.
Upon seeing Lu Hui, Huo Feng's eyes turned blood-red as he glared at Lu Hui and said slowly, "Release Bing."
"Hmph! Do you think you still have the right to be arrogant? Coming to my territory means everything is under my control," Lu Hui sneered. He then turned to the two people beside him and said, "Since our talented dragon wants to see his friend, let's fulfill his wish. Elders, release that foolish dragon so they can reminisce one last time."
"Yes!"
The two elders responded immediately, and soon the Black Elemental Power surged from their bodies, causing the Origin Force to rush toward the center of the massive plaza.
Suddenly, Huo Feng heard the sound of boulders shifting, and then he saw a huge circular hole opening up in the center of the plaza. At that moment, Huo Feng felt the icy aura growing stronger.
Huo Feng stared intently at the hole, where a faint blue light was emerging. He recognized it as ice and shouted, "Ice, big brother is here to save you."
However, there was no response. The movement only stopped when it had completely risen to level with the plaza's surface. It was then that Huo Feng noticed Ice had already fainted, with thick black iron chains binding him at various points on his body. The other ends of the chains were directly connected to more than ten dark iron pillars surrounding Ice.
At this point, Huo Feng had completely lost control; his Origin Force erupted as he prepared to charge at Lu Hui in the air.
Lu Hui immediately shouted, "If you want him to live, you'd better stay put."
Lu Hui's words made Huo Feng hesitate for a moment. He glared fiercely and asked, "What do you want?"
"Very simple. You will self-destruct your meridians in front of me, disperse all your Origin Force, and then transform into your dragon form. Only then will I release him," Lu Hui replied coldly.
Huo Feng glanced at the unconscious Ice and took a deep breath. "Fine, I agree. But you have to wake him up first; I need to talk to him for a bit, or else there's no deal."
