He Yichao, who had been desperately waiting for three days on the third level, looked extremely unhappy and loudly questioned his subordinate, "Did you not say that Lu Yu entered the Earth Fire Demon Cave three days ago? Why haven't we seen any trace of him yet?"

Master Long was also somewhat impatient; the environment in the Earth Fire Demon Cave was not great to begin with, and there were a large number of supernatural creatures around. He had to go to great lengths to maintain the array he had set up.

Three days was enough to wear down his patience.

Seeing He Yichao shouting, Master Long said discontentedly, "Young Master He, the master sent me out with you, but it's not to waste time here. Three days is long enough, and there's a lot waiting for me to do back in Yunhai City." Chapters first released on N()velFire.net

He Yichao urgently tried to stop Master Long, as Long's array was his crucial component—it could conceal everyone's auras and restrict Lu Yu's actions. Without Long's support, their success rate for capturing Lu Yu would drop significantly.

Even though he had brought twelve Sea of Qi stage fighters this time.

"Master Long, just wait a little longer, just a little longer. Once we capture Lu Yu, you will be the greatest benefactor to the He family, and the He family will spare no expense in helping you break through to the Array Master stage." He Yichao said quickly.

Master Long was a bit surprised. Why was the He family so obsessed with a Divine Weapon Pavilion disciple at the Breath Control stage?

He had heard a rumor in the Array Master's circle that a peerlessly talented disciple had appeared in the Divine Weapon Pavilion, and various forces were offering rewards for information on this peerless talent.

Just a piece of information about such a peerless talent was worth millions of gold.

If one could determine who the peerless talent of the Divine Weapon Pavilion truly was, one could become an honored guest of any major force, and have a lifetime free from worry.

Could it be that Lu Yu had knowledge of the peerlessly talented disciple's whereabouts? Or was somehow related to the peerlessly talented disciple?

Master Long pondered these thoughts and reluctantly said, "Alright then! I will wait one more day. If we still don't see Lu Yu in a day, I'll have to return to Yunhai City."

"Alright! One day it is." He Yichao said decisively.

He glanced at the others and saw the man he had questioned earlier seemed to want to say something. He asked, "What do you want to say? If you can't explain why Lu Yu entered the Earth Fire Demon Cave but hasn't appeared here, I will chop you up and feed you to the dogs!"

Upon hearing He Yichao's threat, the man gritted his teeth and said, "I swear on my life, Lu Yu definitely entered the Earth Fire Demon Cave. As for why he hasn't come here, he must have gone to another part of the Earth Fire Demon Cave."

He Hao responded, "That's impossible. Lu Yu's target is this flame; he must appear here, unless there's another place in the Earth Fire Demon Cave with this kind of purple-black flame."

The guide from Earth Fire City hesitated for two seconds before saying, "Actually, the Earth Fire Demon Cave is not the only place with purple-black flames. There is one other place where such flames might exist—someone once saw purple-black flames in the Forest of White Bones on the fourth level..."

He Yichao looked at the guide. Though he wanted to scold him, "Why didn't you say so sooner?"

But the guide was a member of a family that collaborated with the He family in Earth Fire City, and not weak in strength. He couldn't do that, so he begrudgingly swallowed his frustration and said.

"Take us to the fourth level!"

"Xu Qing, He Hao, you two stay here and keep watch—he might appear here as well. The rest, follow me!" He Yichao instructed.

The group headed toward the fourth level entrance, and with He Yichao, who had just advanced to the Sea of Qi stage, leading them, there were a total of 12 Sea of Qi stage fighters. Their strength was overwhelming, and no supernatural creatures dared to provoke them on the third level.

Lu Yu was currently on his way to the fourth level's exit, cautiously avoiding two Beast Spirit stage creatures and accelerating toward the exit.

Flying here was tantamount to seeking death; it was truly meat dropping from the sky, and it was human-flavored.
