He wanted to withdraw but since he was already halfway he couldn't , and the other reason was the speed of the fire lotus , it was too terrifying , in a blink of an eyes the lotus appears in front of him . Gulping a mouth full of saliva , he used his Dou technique and punched the upcoming attack and the next second , a earth shaking explosive sound was heard .
* BOOM*
Entire square was gulped by the waves of flames , ripple of waves could be seen on the square . Everybody used there Dou Qi at there fullest to resist the heatwaves , the waves of flames danced in the square like a magical beast . A big spiritual bluish fire lotus appears on the square , around 50 meters large and tall , it completely covered the square from above .
After around a minute , all the energy dissipated in the nature and the fire lotus disappeared . And then only the sea of fire was left , in the sea of fire . It was very difficult to see anything . They didn't know anything that was happening within it .
But after a while , Xiao Yan came out of it while holding a big bulky man on his shoulder .It was non other then Luo Bu, his entire clothes were burned to dust and his hairs were shortened by half . His eyes were closed and his entire body was black like charcoal . It wasn't that he was burned , but rather it was due to black smoke due to the explosion .
After coming out of it , he threw the unconscious , charcoal black Luo Bu on the ground . The moment he fell on the ground , a thud sound came but along with it , clang sound was heard and just after that , a red glow appeared for an instant .
He was wearing a red pendent , whose string got weakened due to the explosion and now when he threw Luo Bu , the pendent fell on the ground , de attaching from his neck and probably due to the sunlight , it emitted a red glow .
The moment the red glow hit his eyes , he looked at it for an instant . He saw that a small pendent , with metal body and a red ruby attached to it in front was present . He bend down to pick the pendent , but the moment he touched the pendent a surprise flashed along his eyes and he thought . ' Huh ??..what the heck..... could it be some kind of treasure left by some master ?
It is emitting a strange but familiar aura , I don't know why but it feels like , it is related to me somehow..... something is up with this , i think i should check it in silence. '
He thought about it and stuffed it in his ring .
.....
After that he looked at all the people around him and said " Now that you all have lost the bet , so be prepared to get the punishment according to the rules of company ."
After saying that , he moved from there and went towards his brothers , after coming there he said with a wide grin on his face " Big brother now you take on from here , do as you please.....but first come with me in the room . I have something important to discuss . "
After saying that , he didn't even waited for there answer and straightaway went towards his room . Seeing Xiao Yan's behaviour , both of them could only shake his head in amusement . They didn't knew what to say , his words carried so much weight that it was very hard to deny him , on the contrary , it was not because of fear but because of respect .
After a while , in a big room three figures were present , looking at one another .
Soon two of them opened there mouth and asked at the same time " Third brother , what is it that you wanted to discuss . "
Hearing this Xiao Yan said " First brother , your Qi method , which is it and second brother you as well ?? "
Both of them got started for an instant upon being struck by such a strange question but after a while Xiao Ding said " Deep forest ( High Yellow Rank ) "
" Heaven's thunder ( High Yellow rank ) " said Xiao Li .
When Xiao Yan heard this , he shook his head and thought ' As expected , due to the courtesy of our beloved Gu clan , we don't even have a Black rank Qi method for our new generation . This really pisses me off , but what can I do in this . If that fool Xiao Xuan wouldn't have trusted that Gu Yuan that much then we wouldn't had to be in this situation .
What Gu Yuan did to us , was a lovely and a bloody sweet backstabbing , in this process you never realise who stabbed you and you always feel that a friend whom you left to guard your back tried his best but failed .
If I will get the opportunity then I will surely take everything back by tenfold times . '
While thinking this , he slowly rubbed his storage ring and brought out two scrolls and gave it to each .
When they saw him giving a scroll to them they looked confused but still they decided to take a peek but the moment the read the contents of the scrolls they froze like a ice sculpture .
After a while , Xiao Ding uttered with huge shock " Black demon forest ( High Black Rank ) !!!!..... "
" Supreme heavenly Thunder ( Black high rank )!!!...." Screamed Xiao Li .
Both of there minds were at turmoil for a moment , they didn't knew what to say or do . They could only stare at Xiao Yan with numerous amount of question in there eye . After a while , they managed to control there emotions and were about to ask about this but before they could ask , Xiao Yan said " Do not ask me , how ? , why ? , who ? , just know this , that from know you both will practice those Qi methods and abandon you previous Qi method ."
Hearing this they both supressed there emotions and nodded , after which they both went into retreat to change there qi method .
Changing a Qi method was a very unusual task and it may require days , weeks or even months depending upon the complexity of the Qi method or the gap between your previous and new one , the bigger the gap the longer it takes .
Originally when he was searching Yao Lao's ring , he stumbled upon few Qi methods . Even though , his ring didn't had Qi method of every kind but still he had quite a number of Qi method , out of which he took out two Qi methods suitable for his brothers and gave it to them .
After he saw that both of them underwent a retreat he said " Hmm.... Xiao Ding is a 7 star Dou master and Xiao Li is even more talented and is a 8 star Dou master .
If I can aid them with all the pills that I took to breakthrough , they both can possibly become a Dou Grandmaster with next few days , it won't be a wrong idea to help them increase there strength and I can even refine some other pills to increase the overall strength of the entire group by increasing number of Dou master .
