C43

Ye Kai and his men walked for a few more days before finally arriving at the foot of the mountain.2

The mountain was about a few hundred meters high, and it was covered with lush trees. Looking at it before, it was emerald green, and within the vegetation, there seemed to be a variety of birds and beasts moving about. These birds and beasts did not avoid Ye Kai and the others. "Looks like there are very few people here," Ye Kai thought to himself. He didn't think that there would be such a place around the Vermillion Bird Sect.

"Everyone, stop to rest." Su Rou looked at the mountain in front of her and instructed the people behind her.

"Xiao Rou!" Ever since that night, Su Rou had let him call her that. They had only known each other for a short while, and Ye Kai himself did not agree to it, but this little girl kept pestering him, acting so coquettishly. In the end, he was really unable to resist and could only nod in agreement.

"Why did you suddenly stop? Isn't it still not noon?" Ye Kai looked up at the sun in the sky.

Su Rou hopped to Ye Kai's side and blinked her big, watery eyes. With a smile that could not be concealed, she said, "According to the news from the sect, this is our destination!"

Ye Kai nodded and did not say anything more. He found an empty space and sat down to rest.

After around an hour, everyone was more or less rested, so Su Rou gathered everyone. In front of everyone, she took out her Vermillion Bird medallion. With a wave of her fair hands, true energy gushed out of her hands and poured into the medallion. With a flash of light, Su Rou willed it and a blueprint appeared in her hands.

After putting away the Vermillion Bird medallion, Ye Kai opened up the map and placed it on the ground. When he looked down, he realized that it was actually a map.

"This is the map of the mountain, this is the Firestorm Tiger's lair. According to the elders, this Firestorm Tiger is at the seventh stage of Fighter 7-dan middle stage, but they are very good at fighting and are very strong, so everyone should be very careful." Su Rou pointed to a spot on the map that had been marked out. Her small face was tense as she had a serious expression.

She looked at the crowd and saw them nodding. She then looked at Ye Kai and Lu Feng, "Big brother Ye Kai, big brother Feng. When we deal with Flaming Tiger, we will have to rely on you two. You two must work together!"

Hearing Su Rou call out Ye Kai's name first, Lu Feng's face became unnatural.

"Don't worry, we will definitely do so!" The two of them replied in unison. However, no one noticed the icy coldness in Lu Feng's eyes.

After discussing, Su Rou brought the map to the very front and led them to search for the Flaming Wind Tiger's lair. Ye Kai and Lu Feng stood at the front and back of the team respectively.

The mountain was not very tall, and its terrain was not too steep either. Although there were very few people, they were cultivators, and their bodies far exceeded that of an ordinary person's. Thus, in less than two hours, they had arrived at the halfway mark.

Ye Kai and his men hid among the trees, looking at the cave ahead of them.

"We're right in front of the Flaming Wind Tiger's lair. Everyone, you must be careful and take care of this later!" Su Rou reminded again.

She waved her hand and Ye Kai and Lu Feng took the lead. The group of people then quietly made their way over.
