Boom!

A sound like an explosion echoed around the two of them, and in that instant, the green stone bricks around them cracked completely.

Originally, Ye Xiao thought he could rely on the Nine Yang Heavenly Thunder Fist to suppress Yuan Hui's momentum, but to his complete surprise, he failed.

Because when the two fists collided, Ye Xiao felt an extremely ferocious Inner Power True Qi emanating from Yuan Hui, forcing Ye Xiao to retreat more than ten meters. If not for recently cultivating Yang Gang's Golden Body, which greatly strengthened the defense of his Nine Yang Divine Skill, Ye Xiao would have been seriously injured. Even so, Ye Xiao still felt somewhat injured!

At Ye Xiao's current strength, the person who could still injure him, Yuan Hui, was definitely the first.

Ye Xiao now looked up at Yuan Hui, fully understanding why Tang Heng said that in the Purple Fire Sect, no one dared to confront Yuan Hui head-on. Yuan Hui's strength was simply too formidable, at least that's what Ye Xiao thought at the moment.

"Master!" At this moment, Tang Rong ran back again. She had already gone to her residence but heard a thunderous explosion sound. As a martial artist, she judged it to be a Qi explosion sound, which wasn't very difficult, and the location of the sound was where Ye Xiao was now.

So, no matter how she thought about it, Tang Rong felt something was wrong and hurriedly came back.

When she arrived, she happened to see Ye Xiao thrown back over ten meters.

Hearing Tang Rong's voice, Yuan Hui frowned but did not turn to look at her, instead continuing to gaze at Ye Xiao and said, "Still claiming to have nothing to do with Ye Bailin. If I'm not mistaken, what you're cultivating is probably..."

Yuan Hui didn't finish his sentence, but there was no need for him to do so.

Tang Rong rushed to Ye Xiao's side, looked at him worriedly, and said, "Big brother, are you hurt?"

Looking at Tang Rong's worried expression, Ye Xiao felt a warmth in his heart. He smiled slightly and said, "Big brother is fine. I'm just sparring with Senior Yuan Hui, so don't worry."

Ye Xiao knew he mustn't let Tang Rong worry. After all, even if he told her it was Yuan Hui who acted against him, it would do her no good and might even involve her in trouble. Ye Xiao wouldn't be that foolish.

At this moment, Yuan Hui walked toward Ye Xiao again.

Around the Purple Fire Hall, many people were watching the sudden occurrence. Tang Heng looked particularly troubled because he had brought Ye Xiao here. Now that Yuan Hui had acted against Ye Xiao, regardless of the reason, it placed him opposite Ye Xiao. However, the Purple Fire Sect had strict rules, and arguing with elders was just seeking trouble, so Tang Heng didn't dare to speak up. He could only wait, ready to step in if Yuan Hui tried to harm Ye Xiao seriously.

"Master, what exactly do you want? I already went back. Why are you still troubling my big brother? Is this what you call integrity?" Tang Rong didn't care whom she faced. She wasn't afraid of anything, dare to make a scene even in the Purple Fire Hall. So, when she saw Yuan Hui approaching Ye Xiao, she spread her arms and shielded Ye Xiao behind her, ready to resist him if Yuan Hui attempted anything against Ye Xiao.

Yuan Hui ignored Tang Rong and kept his eyes on Ye Xiao, saying, "Would you like to talk?"

"No!" Tang Rong shouted at Yuan Hui, clearly suspecting he had bad intentions.

However, Ye Xiao patted Tang Rong's shoulder and smiled, saying, "Rongrong, you've really grown up, able to protect big brother now. But Senior Yuan Hui hasn't done anything to me. You mustn't be impolite to Master. Don't forget the principle of 'once a teacher, always a father.' I need to talk to Senior Yuan Hui now, so don't worry. I will be fine."

Although Ye Xiao spoke softly and gently, Tang Rong couldn't believe him and only glared at Yuan Hui, as if Yuan Hui was her worst enemy at this moment.

Yuan Hui finally looked at Tang Rong, sighed lightly, and said, "This is the disciple I chose. All right, you step back. I assure you, he will be perfectly fine. You should trust me now. If I lay a hand on him again, I am no longer of the Purple Fire Sect. That's a solemn vow, isn't it?"

It was definitely a solemn vow!

Hearing Yuan Hui's promise, Tang Rong felt much relieved, but his words also made her a little guilty. Nevertheless, protecting Ye Xiao remained her top priority.

Tang Rong slowly put her arms down, and Ye Xiao patted her shoulder and smiled, saying, "You should go rest."

Tang Rong nodded slightly, and in her eyes, Ye Xiao's words were golden!

After she left, Yuan Hui didn't sit back down on the stone stool but looked at Ye Xiao and said, "Do you dare to go somewhere with me?"

"Since Senior Yuan Hui asked, I will naturally follow," Ye Xiao replied.

"All right, come with me!" Yuan Hui said, and just after speaking, he leaped gracefully, vanishing quickly. If anyone thought Qinggong could only be seen on TV, they were gravely mistaken. Martial artists could achieve such heights with proper cultivation!

Seeing Yuan Hui leap away, Ye Xiao immediately followed.

In the blink of an eye, Ye Xiao and Yuan Hui disappeared, leaving those standing at the Purple Fire Hall entrance deeply puzzled.

Everyone was shocked when Yuan Hui suddenly attacked Ye Xiao. Yuan Hui had a peculiar temperament, but he rarely acted first. Now, not only had he acted first, but they also left together, increasing the confusion among the onlookers.

"Hui Heng, what is the background of the person you brought?" The Sect Leader of the Purple Fire Sect looked at Tang Heng and asked.

"Replying to Sect Leader, he is named Ye Xiao. He came to the Northern Territory because of the Dragon Flag. I have fought with Ye Xiao before; he is very strong and is likely a talented martial artist from some sect. However, he means no harm to others, and I've always wanted to befriend him," Tang Heng responded respectfully to the Purple Fire Sect Leader.

The Purple Fire Sect Leader remained silent in thought.
