Chapter 1977 I Want Your Heads

Ye Bufan said, “The Burning Sky Purple Flame is in my hands. I can give it to you, but you must first let me examine Senior Lu’s injuries.”

“This…”

The two looked at each other, clearly hesitant.

Ye Bufan scoffed, “What, are you two Body Integration Stage powerhouses afraid of a mere Nascent Soul Cultivator like me?”

The two thought about it and realized it made sense. Lu Chaozong, the strongest Cultivator, had been completely crippled, let alone this small Nascent Soul Cultivator.

The tall, thin man said, “Alright, we’ll give you this chance. Hurry up.”

Ye Bufan stepped forward to Lu Chaozong, reaching out and taking out a Returning Heaven Pill. “Senior Lu, your injuries are too severe. Take this pill first.”

“Get the hell out of here, you brainless idiot! Do I need you to meddle?”

The reason Lu Chaozong had given his Artifact Refining Legacy and the Burning Sky Purple Flame to Ye Bufan was to prevent them from being taken by the Lu family.

He hadn’t expected this Young man to deliver himself to their doorstep. All his previous efforts were in vain, making him furious. He raised his hand and swatted away the Returning Heaven Pill offered to him.

“Get out of here immediately! If you dare to give the Burning Sky Purple Flame to those two bastards, I won’t even let you off as a ghost!”

Lu Chaozong roared, and under the assault of anger and anxiety, he spat out another mouthful of blood.

Ye Bufan looked helpless. Although he was a divine doctor, the other party needed to cooperate with the treatment.

If he said too much now, it would only worsen the other party’s injuries, so he could only remain silent.

The short, stout man said, “Alright, this waste is a goner. Don’t waste time on him.

Quickly hand over the Burning Sky Purple Flame, and I can spare your life.”

Ye Bufan turned to look at the two, extending a hand. A ball of purple flame appeared in his palm, flickering incessantly.

“Burning Sky Purple Flame!”

Although they had already guessed that the异火 was in Ye Bufan’s hands, the two were still incredibly excited upon seeing it.

If they brought the Burning Sky Purple Flame back to the Family, it would undoubtedly be a great achievement, and their status within the Family would be unmatched.

But then they immediately noticed something was wrong. The tall, thin man’s pupils dilated, his face filled with shock, and he let out a cry of alarm.

“Completely subdued? You actually subdued the Burning Sky Purple Flame? How is this possible?”

As core members of the Lu family, the two were very clear about the power of the Burning Sky Purple Flame.

Lu Chaozong had held it for so many years and had not been able to make this flame submit; it was only in a symbiotic state. Yet, this Young man had actually subdued the Burning Sky Purple Flame.

Making the异火 completely submit was simply an incredible feat!

“You still have some discernment; it is indeed completely subdued.”

Ye Bufan extended his right hand, his five fingers flickering continuously, and the purple flame moved back and forth from one finger to another, appearing incredibly profound.

The tall, thin man and his companion checked repeatedly, confirming that this was indeed the Burning Sky Purple Flame, and it had already submitted to this Young man.

At the same time, a strong killing intent immediately surged in their hearts. No matter what, they could not let the Burning Sky Purple Flame belong to someone else; they had to get it into their own hands.

Sensing their thoughts, Ye Bufan coldly smiled.

“You want to snatch it, do you? Do you believe me if I say I’ll make it dissipate into the heavens and earth right now, and you won’t even get a single strand?”

“This…”

Hearing these words, the two who were originally eager to act immediately stopped.

They then realized that the Young man in front of them was different from Lu Chaozong. The former had a symbiotic relationship with the Burning Sky Purple Flame; if they killed him, they could completely take the flame away.

But this Young man was different. He had already made the Burning Sky Purple Flame completely submit, and he fully had the ability to make the flame dissipate.

They had chased for so many years, almost searching the entire Kunlun Continent, and their painstaking goal was to find this异火.

Now that success was within reach, they naturally couldn't let all their efforts go to waste.

The tall, thin man said fiercely, “Kid, if you dare to make the Burning Sky Purple Flame dissipate, do you believe I’ll skin you alive, pull out your tendons, and grind your bones to dust?”

On the short, stout man’s plump face, a hint of a false smile appeared. “Little brother, don’t be impulsive!

As long as you agree to return the Burning Sky Purple Flame, we will certainly reward you handsomely. From now on, you will be the most distinguished guest of our Lu family.”

Ye Bufan inwardly sneered. If he handed over the异火, these two would probably act immediately. How could he possibly become the most distinguished guest?

But that was the effect he wanted, and he didn’t expose them on the spot. “I can give you the Burning Sky Purple Flame, but you must agree to one condition.”

“Yes, as long as you agree to exchange the异火, we will agree to any condition.”

The tall, thin man and the short, stout man both had the same idea in mind.

(This chapter is not finished, please turn the page)

Their plan was to first stabilize the other party, get the异火 into their hands, and then directly kill the other party.

So, agreeing to anything now was fine; they were all empty promises that didn't need to be honored.

Lu Chaozong seemed to realize something and shouted from the side, “Kid, if you dare to exchange the Burning Sky Purple Flame for my life, I’ll die right now for you to see!”

“Don’t worry, Senior, I definitely won’t disappoint you.”

Ye Bufan smiled at Lu Chaozong, then turned to look at the two.

“The Burning Sky Purple Flame is a treasure of heaven and earth. It won’t be given to you for free; you must exchange something for it.”

“Yes, tell us what you want, and we brothers will surely satisfy you!”

As the two spoke, their eyes were fixed on the Burning Sky Purple Flame, filled with excitement, wishing they could snatch the异火 into their hands immediately.

A playful smile appeared on Ye Bufan’s lips. “I’m just afraid you won’t be willing.”

“Willing, willing. No matter what you want, we are willing.”

The two agreed profusely.

No matter what treasure it was, giving it up was only temporary. Once they killed this Young man, it would still be theirs, so there was no question of them being unwilling.

Ye Bufan’s expression changed. “Alright, I want both of your heads.”

“Kid, are you toying with us?”

Even if the two were foolish, they understood what was happening, and their expressions immediately became incredibly gloomy.

“Let’s capture this kid first.”

The tall, thin man roared and reached out to stab Ye Bufan in the chest.

According to his plan, he would control Ye Bufan’s acupuncture points, making him lose the ability to dissipate the异火, and then take him and the Burning Sky Purple Flame back to the Family Head for disposal.

The idea was good, but as soon as he moved, he felt a wave of weakness wash over him. The True Qi in his Dantian seemed to have stagnated, unable to be mobilized in the slightest.

The tall, thin man stumbled and fell to the ground, his face full of shock.

“Kid, you actually used poison!”

Seeing his Senior Brother in such a state, the short, stout man also realized something and quickly checked his own condition. He then found his whole body weak and sore, and his Dantian was completely still.

It was then that the two realized that all their attention had been drawn to the Burning Sky Purple Flame earlier, and they had unknowingly fallen into the other party’s trap.

“Kid, you’re actually a Poison Master?”
