With a single sweep of his palm, the figures below exploded all at once, turning into clouds of blood mist.

From the very beginning, the two of them had never intended to let anyone leave this place alive.

After all, with the richness of Lue Feng Zun Zhe's inheritance, it was enough to attract countless Dou Zun experts.

And more importantly — they had just discovered that the few who escaped carried, in addition to the Wind and Thunder Fury Flame, three other Heavenly Flames.

That kind of news could draw not only high-level Dou Zun, but even Ban Shengs.

If they let these survivors leave and the information leaked…then the two of them might not even get a sip of the soup.

"Brother Wei," the yellow-robed elder said after a moment's thought, "Those people may have escaped, but with so much treasure in their hands, they'll never dare flaunt it.

Why don't we join forces to track them down? Once we find them, we split the spoils as we agreed before. As for those three Heavenly Flames… we can take our time deciding who gets what. What do you think?"

The burly elder considered it for a moment, then nodded.

"Alright. Considering they might head to the Western Desolate Region to sell off what they can't keep, we'll split up. We, the Golden Body Sect, will take charge of the Western Desolate Region. As for the cities outside the Western Region, Brother Sun, your Earth Force Sect can handle those. Agreed?"

"Then it's settled."

The elder surnamed Sun from the Earth Force Sect nodded his agreement.

Of course, he secretly planned to send his own men deep into the Western Wasteland Desert to search for Lin Feng and the others.

And the elder surnamed Wei from the Golden Body Sect clearly intended to do the same.

"In that case, I'll take my leave."

As he spoke, a black vortex suddenly appeared before the burly elder. His body stepped inside, and together with the vortex, vanished completely.

"Hmph… brat, you made me return empty-handed. You'd better pray I don't catch you!"

The elder surnamed Sun snorted, flicking his sleeve and wiping away every trace of the scene below.

Then, with a slash of his hand, he tore open space and slipped inside, his mood sour.

He had thought this trip would net him at least a Heaven Class cultivation technique…or the wealth left behind by that eighth-tier alchemist slain by Lue Feng Zun Zhe.

At the very least, he had expected to seize the Wind and Thunder Fury Flame.

That was why he'd risked making himself a target for every Dou Zun in the Western Region, ambushing survivors from the relic.

Yet in the end, he got nothing — just a wasted effort.

If he had to name one gain, it was that he and the Golden Body Sect had set up a spatial wormhole from the Western Desolate Region to here, earning a handful of trinkets from those traveling to the relic.

But such scraps could never satisfy a Dou Zun powerhouse.

Now, his only choice was to find those people… and take everything from them!

Puff!

In a certain part of the Western Wasteland Desert, above golden-yellow sands, a pitch-black vortex surged into existence, rippling with thick spatial power.

A moment later, two figures stumbled out of the vortex in haste.

Bang!

No sooner had they emerged than the vortex behind them exploded.

Space twisted violently for a moment before fading into nothingness.

"Hah… thank goodness we got out. If that spatial storm had caught us, we'd have been in real trouble."

Staring at where the wormhole had been, Xiao Yixian patted her chest, her tone still filled with lingering fear.

"Right… Lin Feng!"

Remembering the man in her arms, Xiao Yixian quickly knelt down on the sand.

She carefully turned Lin Feng face-up and rested his head on her long, snow-white thighs.

Looking at the bloody mess of his back — and the ribs pierced clean through under his arm — her eyes filled with heartache.

But when she thought of those two sneak attackers, a flash of intense killing intent swept through Xiao Yixian's beautiful eyes.

Once she could fully control her Woeful Poison Body, she would never let those two Dou Zun who ambushed them walk away alive!

Without delay, she hurriedly pulled a mid-grade seventh-tier Yin Yang Life Soul Pill from her storage ring.

Looking at the unconscious Lin Feng, she placed the pill in her mouth.

Then she bent forward, pressing her lips to his, and used the tip of her tongue to push the pill into Lin Feng's mouth.

The instant her tongue entered his mouth, she felt the temperature inside his body—it was so high it startled her.

"Could something be seriously wrong?"

Panic flickered in Xiao Yixian's heart at his condition.

She quickly grabbed one of Lin Feng's arms and sank her mind into his body to investigate.

The moment her spiritual sense entered his body, she immediately realized— Lin Feng's internal state was a complete mess!

An unknown golden Dou Qi was rampaging inside him, as if trying to destroy all traces of his life force.

It kept searching for openings, attempting to break through the Heavenly Flame's blockade and spread to other parts of his body.

Meanwhile, the Glazed Lotus Heart Flame inside him had automatically entered a protective state, continuously releasing its scorching glazed-colored flames to clash with the golden Dou Qi.

Lin Feng's body had essentially become a battlefield.

The Heavenly Flame and the invasive golden Dou Qi were locked in a relentless struggle, each trying to annihilate the other.

Neither side showed any concern for whether Lin Feng's body could withstand such a conflict.

"This… is it the remnant golden Dou Qi from when that strike pierced through Lin Feng earlier?"

Sensing how small in quantity yet terrifyingly fierce that golden Dou Qi was, Xiao Yixian frowned slightly.

Right now, she felt truly grateful she had checked his condition in time.

If this went on any longer, it wouldn't be long before Lin Feng was killed by the war between these two energies.

Fortunately, she had just fed Lin Feng a top-quality mid-tier seventh-grade Yin Yang Life Soul Pill.

The rich medicinal power was now working to heal his injuries, temporarily keeping his life hanging on.

"I need to find a place fast to expel this golden Dou Qi from his body. Otherwise, once the pill's medicinal power is exhausted, Lin Feng will be in grave danger…"

With that thought, Xiao Yixian quickly lifted Lin Feng onto her back again and shot off into the distance, searching for a suitable place to treat his wounds.

Cough, cough—

Inside a somewhat narrow sand cave, the unconscious young man suddenly coughed a few times.

A moment later, his fingers twitched slightly.

The graceful woman beside him noticed and her exquisite face lit up with joy. She immediately reached out to gently touch his cheek.

Moments later, Lin Feng's brows began to move ever so slightly.

His consciousness seemed to be gradually returning.

At that moment, he felt as though his head was resting on a soft, warm jade pillow—and he didn't want to move.

But as his mind grew clearer, he suddenly remembered—he was in the middle of running for his life.
