Chapter 5714: Because of Loneliness?

The Nine Heavens Fire Phoenix pursued Xiao Fan like a maniac, with the Cat Demon following closely behind.

Xiao Fan's face was grim; he hadn't expected the Nine Heavens Fire Phoenix to be so difficult to deal with.

The other party had locked onto his aura; even using the Power of the Mortal Immortal, he couldn't shake off the Nine Heavens Fire Phoenix.

"Dammit…" Xiao Fan's face was dark, his teeth clenched.

As things stood, the only way to escape was to find someone to help draw the Nine Heavens Fire Phoenix's fire.

At this moment, Xiao Fan thought of Chang Yuan; the other man was a perfect candidate to take the blame.

However, the Outer Heaven Secret Realm was vast; where could Chang Yuan be?!

Half a day later…

Xiao Fan was suddenly startled because he sensed the auras of Chang Yuan and the others.

"Good brother…" Xiao Fan smiled and turned toward where Chang Yuan and the others were.

A moment later, Xiao Fan met with Chang Yuan and his group.

"Xiao Fan?!"

"What are you doing here?!"

"…"

Seeing Xiao Fan, Chang Yuan and the others were all taken aback.

Before Xiao Fan could even speak, Chang Yuan and the others felt an indescribably powerful aura.

"Hahaha… Brother Chang Yuan! I've finally found you! Come! Let's join forces!" Xiao Fan laughed loudly.

Chang Yuan: "…"

The next moment, Chang Yuan saw the Nine Heavens Fire Phoenix, with that strange Cat Demon behind it.

In an instant, Chang Yuan understood everything; Xiao Fan wanted to set him up again!

"Xiao Fan! You animal!" Chang Yuan cursed angrily.

"Hahaha… Brother Chang Yuan! My bad! I'll leave this Fire Phoenix to you! I'm taking my leave first!" Xiao Fan shouted, "The Dao Fruit is with you! Keep it safe!"

With that, Xiao Fan used the Power of the Mortal Immortal and his figure vanished.

"Dao Fruit? What Dao Fruit?!" Chang Yuan panicked.

Xiao Fan's words were clearly pinning a massive scapegoat on him.

If it were just a few words from Xiao Fan, the Nine Heavens Fire Phoenix wouldn't have believed him, but he had mentioned the Dao Fruit.

Even if there was only a one-in-ten-thousand chance, the Nine Heavens Fire Phoenix couldn't just walk away.

Regardless, it had already locked onto Xiao Fan's aura; as long as he remained in the Outer Heaven Secret Realm, no matter where he hid, the Nine Heavens Fire Phoenix could find him.

"The Dao Fruit is with you?!" The Nine Heavens Fire Phoenix was filled with Killing Intent, its body radiating fiery-red Immortal Light.

"Dao Fruit? Senior! I don't know anything! Xiao Fan is talking nonsense! I'm not even close to him!" Seeing this, Chang Yuan grew anxious and hurriedly tried to defend himself.

"Talking nonsense? I don't believe it…" the Nine Heavens Fire Phoenix said coldly. "Speak! Is my Dao Fruit with you or not?!"

"It's not! It really isn't! I swear to the heavens! It's not here!"

"My Lord! Stop wasting words with him! Suppress him! Search him!" the Cat Demon arrived with a wicked grin.

"I'm not lying! I really don't have your Dao Fruit!" Chang Yuan tried to explain further, but the Nine Heavens Fire Phoenix wouldn't listen.

The next moment, the Nine Heavens Fire Phoenix opened its beak, and a strange aura bound Chang Yuan.

Chang Yuan was terrified; he didn't want to be at someone's mercy, so he resisted with all his might.

Chang Yuan and his group weren't weak, but they were clearly no match for the Nine Heavens Fire Phoenix.

A moment later, Chang Yuan and the others were suppressed. The Nine Heavens Fire Phoenix checked carefully and found that its Dao Fruit was indeed not there.

"Damnable Human Race!!" the Nine Heavens Fire Phoenix roared. Sensing Xiao Fan's aura, it resumed its pursuit.

Chang Yuan and his companions were heavily injured, collapsing to the ground one by one.

"Consider yourselves lucky!" The Cat Demon glanced at Chang Yuan and the others before following the Nine Heavens Fire Phoenix.

Compared to Chang Yuan and his group, the Cat Demon certainly wanted to kill Xiao Fan more.

Because of Chang Yuan, Xiao Fan gained a brief moment of respite, but before he could reach safety, he sensed the Nine Heavens Fire Phoenix's aura again.

"Damn it! If this continues, it'll never end!" Xiao Fan's expression was grim as he communicated with the yukong furnace, asking about the situation in the Outer Heaven Secret Realm.

"I don't know much about the Outer Heaven Secret Realm."

"You don't even know of a single place to hide?!" Xiao Fan asked.

"No. I don't need to hide, so I don't know the answer to that."

"You… then why were you in the Outer Heaven Secret Realm?!"

"Why? Perhaps it was… loneliness."

"…"

Hearing the yukong furnace's words, Xiao Fan felt the other party was out of their mind.

Because of loneliness?

And then ran off to a place devoid of people?!

If this isn't being crazy, then what is?!

Soon, the Nine Heavens Fire Phoenix caught up to Xiao Fan again. Xiao Fan gritted his teeth, used the Power of the Mortal Immortal, and performed the Technique of Reincarnation.

The next moment, Xiao Fan reincarnated back to the place where he had met Chang Yuan and the others.
