Start flat, cut off the wife of the five-star empress

The woman said coldly, and then disappeared from the spot.

Lu Yuan and Su Liyan looked at each other and could see confusion and worry in each other's eyes.

They all understood that the warnings from the Ghost Sect were not groundless.

After Lu Yuan returned to Leihuo Dan Pavilion, a slight sense of anxiety arose.

He silently pondered the interest that the Ghost Sect had shown in him, and felt somewhat uneasy about it.

Although he already had a certain reputation in the world of immortal cultivation, he was still horrified by the interference of the Ghost Sect.

Entering Dan Pavilion, Lu Yuan found that the whole place was unusually quiet.

Because of the auction, many disciples and elders went to Tianfeng City, leaving the Dan Pavilion empty.

In particular, the members of the Alchemy Research Institute showed great interest in the rare medicinal materials at the auction, which also led to the dean Su Liyan personally going to Tianfeng City.

Lu Yuan walked into his laboratory, his anxiety growing stronger.

He began to check his alchemy furnace and alchemy materials to make sure everything was in order. Just as he was concentrating on his work, he suddenly heard a burst of hurried footsteps.

"Lu Yuan, come out quickly!"

came a familiar voice.

Lu Yuan was stunned, then quickly walked out of the laboratory.

Su Liyan was seen standing at the door with an anxious look on her face, and a hint of uneasiness in her eyes.

"What's wrong, Sister Su?"

Lu Yuan asked.

Su Liyan frowned and said, "Something happened in the Leihuo Pill Pavilion. Come with me quickly."

Hearing this, Lu Yuan's heart sank, and he followed Su Liyan and hurried to the place where the accident happened.

Along the way, Su Liyan briefly introduced the events to Lu Yuan.

It turned out that a disciple accidentally detonated a furnace of precious elixirs while cleaning the laboratory, causing the laboratory to instantly become engulfed in flames.

At that time, everyone was in a panic and unable to control the fire. Many precious elixirs and utensils in the Dan Pavilion were seriously damaged.

Lu Yuan's face darkened after hearing this. He felt sad about the loss of the elixir, but he was more worried whether there was a conspiracy of the Ghost Sect behind this incident.

When we finally arrived at the scene, we saw a mess and the laboratory was burned beyond recognition.

The disciples were busy cleaning up the wreckage, trying to recover the losses.

Su Liyan looked at this scene with a frown on her face. She said to Lu Yuan, "This accident was not an accident. I suspect that the Ghost Sect was involved."

When Lu Yuan heard this, a determined light flashed in his eyes.

He knew that he couldn't let the Ghost Sect act recklessly, otherwise it would bring greater harm to the Thunder Fire Pill Pavilion.

"Sister Su, we must find out who is behind this and we can't let them continue to act recklessly."

Lu Yuan said firmly.

Su Liyan nodded. She knew that Lu Yuan had extraordinary wisdom and strength and could help them find out the truth.

Lu Yuan and Su Liyan hurried to the laboratory. Faced with the messy scene, they felt heavy in their hearts.

Su Liyan frowned and said, "This accident was not an accident. I suspect that the Ghost Sect was involved."

After hearing this, a determined light flashed in Lu Yuan's eyes. He decided to find out the truth and not let the Ghost Sect continue to act recklessly.

Su Liyan looked at Lu Yuan with a hint of admiration and trust in her eyes. She knew that Lu Yuan was a capable cultivator and a responsible person.

They decided to join forces to find out the truth. Lu Yuan began to use detection techniques around the laboratory, trying to find out if there were any traces of the Ghost Sect.

Su Liyan helped other disciples clean up the wreckage and look for possible clues.

During Lu Yuan's investigation, he discovered a well-concealed breath of death. This breath was not possessed by ordinary fire spirits, but carried a cold and evil atmosphere.

He was secretly alert in his heart, realizing that the Ghost Sect's conspiracy might be more serious than he imagined.

Su Liyan looked at Lu Yuan's expression and knew that he had found some important clues. She walked to Lu Yuan and said softly, "Lu Yuan, do you have a way to solve this problem?"

Lu Yuan pondered for a moment, then nodded firmly, "I can try to track the source of this undead aura and find out who is behind it."

A glimmer of hope flashed in Su Liyan's eyes. She knew that Lu Yuan had extraordinary wisdom and strength, and she believed that he would be able to find out the truth.

Lu Yuan began to use the Five Elements Escape Technique to search for the source along the trajectory of the undead aura.

With their efforts, they finally found the entrance to a secret passage hidden in the corner of the laboratory.

Su Liyan tightly grasped the ice crystal whip in her hand and looked ahead vigilantly.

The two quietly entered the secret passage, followed the guidance of the breath of death, and came to a deep secret room.

In the secret room, they found Hong Lietian, the leader of the Ghost Sect, casting a dark necromancy spell.

He looked at Lu Yuan and Su Liyan coldly, with a cold light flashing in his eyes.

"You found my hiding place."

Hong Lietian's voice was cold and mocking, "Unfortunately, you can never leave here again."

Lu Yuan tightly grasped the Tiangang Thunder and Fire Sword in his hand with a firm gaze. He faced Hong Lietian without fear.

"Hong Lietian, your conspiracy has been exposed. Now tell us the truth about who is behind it!"

Su Liyan was also ready for the fight. The ice crystal whip flashed coldly in her hand. She stood firmly beside Lu Yuan and faced the leader of the Ghost Sect together with him.

Seeing this, Hong Lietian sneered and cast an even more evil necromancy spell, trying to trap Lu Yuan and Su Liyan in the secret room.

But Lu Yuan and Su Liyan cooperated well. They used the Tiangang Big Dipper Formation to resolve Hong Lietian's attack. Under the counterattack, Hong Lietian was defeated step by step.

In the end, Hong Lietian was unable to withstand the combined attack of Lu Yuan and Su Liyan and fled in panic.

True Lord Potian challenged Lu Yuan to a duel.

Lu Yuan leaned against the window of Leihuo Dan Pavilion, with a lot of thoughts in his mind.

The news of the battle spread throughout the city like a whirlwind. The Leihuo Dan Pavilion was packed with people. Many people came to watch the fight, wanting to witness the contest between Lu Yuan and True Lord Potian with their own eyes.

Su Liyan walked into the room and closed the door gently.

She looked at Lu Yuan's back and said softly, "Lu Yuan, do you really want to accept the challenge?"

"Master Potian is the leader of the Black Flame Sect. His strength is extraordinary."

Lu Yuan turned around and said to Su Liyan with a smile: "I know you are worried about me, but this battle means a lot to me."

"If I can win the contest with True Lord Po Tian, ​​then I will be able to gain more recognition and support from the sects."

Su Liyan sighed softly. She understood Lu Yuan's thoughts, but was still worried about his decision.

"You have to be careful and don't take risks."

She gently squeezed the cold jade ice flakes in her hand, hoping to provide a little blessing for Lu Yuan.

Lu Yuan held Su Liyan's hand and said with a firm look in his eyes: "Don't worry, I won't give up easily." (End of this chapter)
