"If you want to destroy the Water and Wood Giant Tank, you have to get past me first!"

The spiritual energy in his body surged rapidly, and in a short while his cultivation level jumped two levels.

When Lu Chong saw this, his eyes widened instantly.

"Fei Ling Dan, this is the forbidden drug Fei Ling Dan! How could my second brother..." He immediately turned around and looked at Lu Ziyu after thinking about it.

The Boiling Spirit Pill is a long-lost forbidden medicine. After taking this pill, the spiritual power will boil and grow for a period of time, and the cultivation will be rapidly improved. However, this pill consumes a lot of human energy. Even if the physical fitness is excellent, after taking the Boiling Spirit Pill, the tendons and veins will be broken and the cultivation will be lost.

Lu Dong had been seriously injured by Ling'er before. If he took the Feiling Pill under such circumstances, there would be only one result, which was violent death.

Such forbidden drugs are almost extinct, and people of their class cannot get them. However, he knows that in the Lu family's treasure house, there is a precious pill like this.

Unexpectedly, he really didn't expect that this elixir was actually in Madam Ziyu's hands!

Good plan, good means.

Madam Ziyu knew very well that her second brother was impulsive, irritable, and would do things without considering the consequences, but she actually gave him this banned drug behind his back!

In such a vicious situation, isn't this going to cost my second brother's life...

As Lu Dong's spiritual power surged, the Shuimu Giant Tank, which was originally on the verge of death, directly swallowed Ling'er's flames.

As soon as the flames approached the Water and Wood Giant Tank, they all disappeared, as if they had melted into the Water and Wood Giant Tank's body.

"Hahaha, little girl, do you think I can't do anything to you? Do you think you can defeat our Lu brothers? You are dreaming. Next, I will show you the true power of the Water and Wood Giant Tank."

This time, the Water and Wood Giant Tank did not grow larger, but a large bowl appeared in its hand. After the bowl turned over, the sky was covered with dark clouds, lightning and thunder. The surrounding scene changed instantly. Ling'er seemed to be on the sea at this moment, her body swaying with the ups and downs of the waves, and she felt a little unstable.

Suddenly, there was a slight wave under the water. Ling'er reacted quickly and jumped up immediately. The moment she left the water, an octopus-like creature surfaced from where she had just stood, with its mouth wide open.

If Ling'er hadn't reacted quickly just now, she would have become the monster's meal by now.

"Transforming into a magical creature, what kind of trick is this? I've never heard that seafood can be raised in water spiritual power." Looking at the snarling octopus below, Ling'er's temples twitched slightly.

There was a flash of light, followed by a loud thunder. Ling'er's body went numb and she fell straight from the sky.

The surface of the water was already covered with the octopus's claws. As long as Ling'er fell in, she would be immediately entangled by the claws and swallowed into its stomach.

"Damn it, this water and wood spirit can actually mobilize thunder and lightning, what the hell is this."

Just as Ling'er was about to fall into the range of the octopus, at the last moment, a pair of burning wings grew out from behind Ling'er, stabilizing her body and returning her to mid-air again.

"You woman, you get into trouble when I don't even look at you, you really make me worry." The arrogant tone and the character that asks for a beating, yes, this is Hong Yan who has just woken up after being in a deep sleep for a long time.

"You woke up just in time. You almost had to find me in the stomach of that seafood." Seeing Hongyan waking up, Ling'er was in a very happy mood and said jokingly.

Hong Yan's illusory wings flapped twice, and then a proud "hum" was heard.

"You were scared by a piece of wood pretending to be seafood. I think you are really going backwards as you grow older."

"What did you say? Wood pretending to be seafood?" Ling'er calmed down and looked at the octopus. It did look very similar to a real octopus, but if you look closely, you can see that its claws are not flexible enough and do not have the softness of an octopus.

It turned out to be a wood spirit incarnation. Haha, I was almost fooled.

"But although this octopus is a wood spirit, it is not afraid of fire." Hong Yan's voice came again, and his tone sounded a little awkward. In other words, he couldn't help much. At most, he could take her flying for a while.

"Yes, this wood spirit lives in the water spirit, and this martial arts fusion itself can fight against higher-level enemies. In addition, Lu Dong's spiritual power is skyrocketing at this moment. I am indeed no match for him."

"Hmph, if my strength hadn't been damaged, I could burn a hundred or eighty of these bastards to death with just a breath of fire." It's a pity that he now can't be compared to his peak period in the past.

"Ling, be careful!" Just as the two of them were talking, the octopus suddenly jumped up and surrounded Ling'er.

The flaming wings flapped, and countless fireballs flew towards the octopus, but they were like drop in the ocean and were useless.

"Damn it, my flames have no effect on him. I'm so angry. Ling, be careful."

Looking at the huge octopus net sweeping over, Ling'er's mind worked quickly, hoping to come up with a solution.

But...

"Mother, step back." At some point, Xia Junyu's small body stood in front of Ling'er, spinning a white ball with both hands. Light flickered around the white ball, and then countless thunders shot towards the octopus.

Mu Ling was afraid of thunder and lightning and subconsciously wanted to dodge it, but it was too late.

It's just that the wood spirit was too strong at this moment, and its spiritual power level was much higher than Xia Junyu's, so although the lightning caused some damage to the octopus, it was not fatal. Moreover, the octopus still retained the strength to fight back, spraying black ink from its mouth, corroding wherever it landed.

"Yu'er!" Seeing the ink completely covering Xia Junyu, Ling'er shouted at the top of her lungs.

No, her Yu'er would be fine.

Why, why didn’t she notice Yu’er coming

Yu'er! Yu'er!

At this moment, Ling'er's heart seemed to have reached her throat. She felt an unprecedented fear, she was afraid that her Yu'er would fall into her hands, or even leave her.

Suddenly, a familiar scene appeared in her mind. A woman was torn apart and fell to the ground in agony. The woman's face was exactly the same as hers.

Tears flowed unconsciously, and Ling'er cried. I don't know if it was because of the picture in my mind or because of the current situation.

The ink color slowly dissipated, and Xia Junyu's small body came into view. Moreover, he was protected by an old man behind him.

The old man was wearing a dirty robe and standing with his back to him. His huge body completely protected Xia Junyu. All the ink that had been sprayed just now fell on the old man in the gray robe.

As for the octopus, it was hit by a wine gourd and fell back into the lake with one claw missing.

"My dear grandson, are you okay? Let me take a look." The old man turned around and looked at Xia Junyu's small body carefully. It was really dangerous just now. If he had come in a little later, his precious grandson would have been bullied.

"Grandpa, how did you get in?"

Xia Junyu looked natural, and it was hard to tell that he had just experienced a life-and-death ordeal.

On the contrary, Yao Lao looked panic-stricken, as if he had been frightened by something.

"Oh, my dear grandson, you still care about how your grandfather got in? You almost scared me to death just now."

"Grandpa, I'm fine, don't worry. With you here, no one can do anything to Yu'er."

"You kid, don't you know how to hide when you encounter danger? You are just a child, don't be so stubborn. If anything happens to you, how will your mother live?" Yao Lao was really shocked by the scene just now, so his tone of voice was a little heavy at this moment, without much thought.

Upon hearing the word "mother", Xia Junyu's expression immediately became tense.

Yes, his mother saw it just now, she must have been terrified.

The little body turned around slightly stiffly and slowly looked towards where Ling'er was.

His face was pale, his eyes were tearful, and he exuded the aura of death. The despair and sadness were so strong that he could feel it so clearly even though he was so far away.

"Mother, Yu'er is fine..." Xia Junyu said this with a lack of confidence, because anyone with eyes could see how dangerous the situation just now was.

This time, Xia Junyu really made Ling'er worried.

But he didn't regret it, because he was a man, and protecting his mother was his wish since he was a child. Even if the situation just now happened again, he would choose to stand in front of his mother without hesitation and protect her from the wind and rain.

His lips were pale and trembling slightly, and he stared at the small figure in front of him for a long time. The next moment, he dodged and raised his arm suddenly, ready to slap him. But he stopped just one centimeter away from Xia Junyu's butt.

She really wanted to teach this disobedient child a lesson, but she couldn't bring herself to do it.

This child has been so sensible since she was young that it makes people feel distressed. It's all her fault for not fulfilling her responsibilities as a mother. It's all her fault for not being able to give her a good environment to grow up.

"Mother, Yu'er knows I was wrong. I will be obedient in the future and will never do it again." Xia Junyu said obediently, but Ling'er knew that these words were just to make her happy. This child is very cunning and also very careful.

"Mom, don't cry, smile." Xia Junyu stretched out his two index fingers, placed them on the left and right corners of Ling'er's mouth, and then pulled them up.

"Mother is a great beauty, smile more."

Ling'er was helpless. Seeing the child trying so hard to please her, she smiled.

Never mind, never mind. I have to pamper my own son even if I have to kneel down.

After thinking about it, he moved his hand upwards that was about to hit Xia Junyu and hugged the little guy.

"Yu'er, you really scared me to death just now. You have to know that you are my life. If anything happens to you, I won't be able to live. So, you must protect yourself in the future, okay?"

Ling'er spoke these few simple sentences very slowly, and pronounced each word with sincerity. This was a mother's worry, a mother's advice to her son. She knew that the child would remember it.

Xia Junyu seemed to have thought of something. His little face wrinkled, but after a moment it relaxed and he nodded seriously.

"Mother, Yu'er has taken note of it, don't worry."

Yao Lao, who was standing by, was so moved by the scene of loving mother and filial son that he burst into tears. He wanted to say something, but suddenly he looked outside with a nervous look on his face.

Suddenly he remembered something, and threw the wine gourd into the spiritual realm of the Lu brothers. The scene that had just condensed was shattered piece by piece. Lu Dong finally couldn't support the powerful spiritual body in his body, and suddenly fell to the ground.

"Second brother! Second brother!"

Lu Chong hurried forward to check on Lu Dong's injuries.

"They are trying to escape. Hurry up and kill them for me." Lu Ziyu realized something was wrong and shouted immediately. Seeing that Lu Chong only cared about his half-dead brother and did nothing, Lu Ziyu was angry. Finally, she flew up and went towards Ling'er and others.

Yao Lao made a strange gesture, and a strong wind suddenly blew up around him, blowing up sand and affecting everyone's vision. Lu Ziyu also covered his face with his arms.

"Let's leave now. This illusion is about to collapse. If we don't leave now, it will be too late." The illusion was set up by old man Jun with his magic weapon. As long as it was destroyed, he would be able to detect it immediately. If he was right, the old man would have come out of retreat long ago. Otherwise, he really couldn't think of who else in Junzhou could be such an old man who could spy from a distance.

And the most important thing now is not this damn illusion, but his apprentice.

He had just sensed the presence of his apprentice outside. He must have discovered the trap he had set and turned around to chase him!

That's why he hurriedly grabbed a member of the Jun family and opened the door to the illusion.

But if his apprentice was really also in the Jun family, he would soon realize that he was in an illusion.

He doesn't have the patience to catch a bloodline that can open up a fantasy world. According to his usual style, it is probably...

"Boom." Suddenly, a loud noise came from outside.
