Chapter 499 - 499 499 Order of the Holy Fire Fourth Update

499: Chapter 499: Order of the Holy Fire (Fourth Update) 499: Chapter 499: Order of the Holy Fire (Fourth Update) At this moment, it seemed that Yu Kun had used a secret technique to increase his strength, but he was still no match for more than a dozen sand bandits.

His injuries worsened.

In less than a quarter of an hour, Yu Kun was covered in blood, and the sand bandits had captured him alive.

“I’ll give you one chance to survive.

Hand over the key.”

The man with a bamboo hat spoke coldly.

“I don’t have the key.

Just kill me.”

Yu Kun said coldly, already prepared for death.

“Grandpa!”

At this point, Yu Wuxia had been reduced to tears and ran towards him.

“Wuxia, don’t come closer!”

Yu Kun shouted at Yu Wuxia.

He wasn’t afraid of death, but the only thing he couldn’t let go of was Yu Wuxia.

“It seems you really care about this little girl.

Go, chop off one of her arms first.”

The man with a bamboo hat ordered one of the sand bandits.

“You beasts!

She’s just a child; she doesn’t know anything!”

Yu Kun’s eyes were filled with anger.

At this moment, a sand bandit walked towards Yu Wuxia, and the big knife in his hand was raised, ready to chop off one of her arms.

“Stop!”

At the critical moment, Long Yan yelled.

By the time his voice rang out, he had already reached Yu Wuxia’s side and protected her.

“Kid, who are you?

If you don’t want to die, don’t meddle in other people’s business.”

The sand bandit scolded coldly, not taking Long Yan seriously at all.

“You beasts actually dare to hurt a child!

Do you have any humanity left?”

Long Yan’s tone was icy, and he practically roared.

Yu Wuxia was so pure and adorable, yet these sand bandits were able to harm her.

Truly devoid of humanity.

In his heart, he didn’t want to get involved in these matters.

Even if the sand bandits killed Yu Kun, it had nothing to do with him.

But Yu Wuxia had given him dried meat, and she was such an adorable little girl that he couldn’t bear it any longer.

When he couldn’t bear to watch anymore, he had to intervene.

“A mere seventh level Martial Venerate, do you think you are a savior?”

The sand bandit showed a contemptuous sneer on his face and immediately swung his knife towards Long Yan.

“You brought this upon yourselves!”

Long Yan’s gaze was cold, and killing intent had already risen.

In a split second, a dark figure appeared beside him and immediately rushed at the sand bandit.

The person who took action was the Spirit Girl.

In the time it took to take a breath, the Spirit Girl shattered the knife’s glow, and then slapped the sand bandit’s head with a fierce backhand.

The sand bandit was only at the first stage Emperor Realm and couldn’t possibly be the Spirit Girl’s opponent, so he was instantly killed.

“Hm?”

At this point, the other sand bandits turned their attention to the Spirit Girl.

The man wearing the bamboo hat immediately looked more serious, as the Spirit Girl’s strength was undoubtedly above his own.

This was a huge variable.

“Kill these sand bandits, not one left alive!”

Long Yan gave the Spirit Girl the order to eliminate every last one of them.

The Spirit Girl understood and immediately went to kill the sand bandits.

She was at the fifth level Imperial Realm and also a Soul Devouring Beast, making her incredibly powerful.

Those sand bandits stood no chance against her.

“Run!”

The man with the bamboo hat didn’t have the courage to fight the Spirit Girl, and his first reaction was to flee.

At that moment, he slashed Yu Kun’s head with a knife, knocking him unconscious and began running away with him.

Before getting the key, Yu Kun could not die.

However, how could they possibly escape in front of the Spirit Girl?

Just as they were fleeing, the Spirit Girl unleashed a Soul Storm, which enveloped a 10,000-meter area.

Under the Soul Storm, the sand bandits were all under fatal suppression.

This was a soul attack.

Some of the weaker sand bandits felt like their Primordial Spirits were about to shatter.

What followed was a one-sided slaughter.

The Spirit Girl was like a grim reaper, and within a quarter of an hour, all the sand bandits were killed by her.

“Grandpa.”

Yu Wuxia ran to Yu Kun, crying even harder.

Long Yan collected the corpses of the sand bandits, as they were resources for his cultivation.

“Let’s leave here first.”

Afterward, Long Yan and the Spirit Girl took Yu Wuxia and Yu Kun and left, directly withdrawing from the merchant group.

Once the sand bandits were killed, they needed to leave the Beichuan Desert Sea as soon as possible, or they would be hunted down if the news reached other sand bandits.

An hour later, Long Yan found a hidden place and stopped.

Long Yan checked Yu Kun’s condition and then took out an elixir, placing it in Yu Kun’s mouth.

“Brother, how is my grandpa?”

Wiping the tear stains from her face, Yu Wuxia looked worried.

“Don’t worry; your grandpa will wake up soon.”

Long Yan said.

However, his gaze was somewhat heavy.

Yu Kun had clearly used a secret technique to burn his life during the battle, leaving him with only his last breath now.

A moment later, Yu Kun opened his eyes and woke up.

“Grandpa.”

Seeing Yu Kun wake up, Yu Wuxia immediately threw herself into his arms.

“Wuxia.”

Yu Kun lovingly held Yu Wuxia in his arms, relieved to see her safe.

After a while, Yu Wuxia struggled out of Yu Kun’s arms.

“Young man, thank you.”

Yu Kun’s gaze fell on Long Yan, filled with gratitude.

If it weren’t for Long Yan, his death wouldn’t matter, but Yu Wuxia would have suffered a terrible fate.

“It’s just a small favor.”

Long Yan smiled, then said: “As for your condition…”

However, before Long Yan could finish, Yu Kun waved his hand to interrupt him.

“Young man, I know my condition well.

I don’t have much time left.”

Yu Kun also knew that his life force had been severed, and he was left with only his last breath.

“Young man, in light of my impending death, I hope you can promise me one thing.”

Yu Kun pleaded.

“Tell me.”

Long Yan said.

“Wuxia is still a child and doesn’t understand the ways of the world.

I hope you can help me take care of her, send her to the Zhenyang Sect, and entrust her to Yu Ying, her aunt.

Yu Ying is her only relative now.”

Yu Kun said.

Originally, he planned to take Yu Wuxia to the Zhenyang Sect personally and entrust her to Yu Ying, but an accident occurred in the Beichuan Desert Sea.

Then, Yu Kun added: “Don’t worry, as long as you promise me this, I won’t let you down.”

“Alright, I promise you!”

Long Yan agreed immediately.

He would have promised even without any reward.

“Wuxia, take out the storage ring I gave you.”

Yu Kun said to Yu Wuxia.

Yu Wuxia obediently nodded and then took out a storage ring from a hidden pocket, handing it to Yu Kun.

Yu Kun took out a key from the storage ring and said, “This key is related to the Order of the Holy Fire.

Now, I’ll entrust it to you.”
