Chapter 4938 A Dilemma

Chen Xiao stood there and watched as he fled back into the lava lake and disappeared.

Hiro turned his head and looked over, "Why don't you take action?"

"The risk is too great, forget it, it's better to be safe," Chen Xiao replied.

Chen Xiao smiled lightly and said: "This is very similar to your personality. You will never take risks. That's fine. Not taking risks is the right thing to do, but you missed an opportunity to increase the power of the will-o'-the-wisp."

"Forehead……"

Chen Xiao turned around fiercely and looked at Hiro in shock.

Hey, you didn't say this earlier, and you didn't mention it before.

"Didn't you tell me earlier?"

Hiro chuckled and said: "As you said, it is better to be safe. If you take action, although you have a great chance of succeeding, it will also put yourself in a dangerous situation. After weighing the balance, it is better to give up."

Chen Xiao was a little helpless. He also saw that Shiro was not very interested in this, so he didn't remind him.

No matter, since this flame beast only wants to escape, forget it.

"What should we do next?" Chen Xiao asked.

"Just wait and see what happens. Now that they have killed this large group of flame beasts, the next step is to get the immortal flame crystal. At that time, it is your chance. Whether you can get a flame crystal depends on your own luck. ”

Hiro said calmly.

Chen Xiao nodded, thoughtfully.

But in his heart, he always felt that things might not be that simple.

In front of the lava lake.

As the Flame Beast leader escaped back into the lava, the entire space became quiet, and the monks from the two major sects all breathed a sigh of relief.

"Huh, great, I finally saved my life."

"The flame beast leader just now was so terrifying, he almost killed them all."

"yes

, thanks to the third elder, he single-handedly drove away the Flame Beast leader, otherwise, the consequences would be disastrous. "

The monks were talking a lot, and all of them had happy expressions on their faces.

Not far away, under a cliff, Zhou Kuang was guarding Fairy Ice Phoenix, waiting for her to heal.

After hearing these voices, Zhou Kuang looked unhappy and cursed: "A group of blind things. If it hadn't been for your sword, ice and fire, which severely injured the leader of the flame beast, Yan Can would have never had a chance to take action, let alone It’s just that the Flame Beast was driven away, rather than killed on the spot, so there’s nothing to be happy about.”

When Bingfeng heard this, she laughed out loud.

She knew that Zhou Kuang had always been strong, but she never expected that even this kind of thing would require a fight.

"Okay, Kuang Lao, we won this battle, that's enough. It doesn't matter what others say."

Fairy Ice Phoenix spoke up and consoled her.

Zhou Kuang was a little unhappy after hearing this, "We are obviously the ones who contributed the most, so why should we praise Yan Can alone? This is unreasonable."

When the Ice Phoenix Fairy saw it, she shook her head helplessly and did not want to persuade him, so she continued to immerse herself in healing her wounds.

The injuries on her body are not serious and she must recover as soon as possible.

Moreover, she was worried that the flame beast leader had only been driven away, not killed, and she was afraid that there would be another setback.

If that was the case, she would have to recover as soon as possible, just in case.

Thinking of this, she asked, "What are the casualties on the other side of the Tianhuo Gate?"

"One person died, and the others were slightly injured." Zhou Kuang replied in a deep voice.

"Oh, got it."

Bingfeng nodded and said no more.

This made Zhou Kuang a little confused.

Mutually

In comparison, the monks on their side actually suffered greater casualties. Two casual cultivators died and several others were seriously injured. Even the monks from the Demon Temple died one and injured several others.

If the casualties among the casual cultivators were not counted, it would be barely acceptable.

Thinking of this, Zhou Kuang calmed down.

In the blink of an eye, three days passed.

On this day, Fairy Ice Phoenix suddenly opened her eyes and looked over, only to see Yan Can flying over alone and stopping in front.

"It seems that the third elder is recovering well." Fairy Ice Phoenix said calmly.

Yan Can had a stern look on his face and replied: "It's okay, I've just recovered a little bit, but I'm still far from getting back to my best condition, but I'm afraid we don't have that much time."

"What do you mean by this?" Zhou Kuang asked.

Yan Can glanced at Zhou Kuang, then looked at the Ice Phoenix Fairy.

"Fairy should understand what I mean." Yan Can said again.

"You..." Zhou Kuang was very angry when he heard this. These words were obviously looking down on him.

Fairy Ice Phoenix smiled, interrupted Zhou Kuang's words, and said slowly: "Are the third elders worried about the escaped flame beast leader?"

Yan Can sighed, with a worried look on his face, and said: "Yes, even though the leader of the flame beast was injured and his strength was greatly reduced, he escaped back into the lava lake. He immediately felt like a fish in water and his strength improved greatly. Even though he was injured, I’m afraid we are no match for him, it will be extremely dangerous.”

Hearing this, the Ice Phoenix Fairy answered and continued: "But we still have to get the Indestructible Flame Crystal, and we have to break into the lava lake."

Yan Can's eyes lit up, "Yes, that's what I mean."

"Wouldn't it become more dangerous? If the leader of the flame beast holds a grudge, hides in the dark, and suddenly makes a sneak attack, I'll wait

Going deep into the lava lake, wouldn't it be the same as committing suicide? "

Zhou Kuang agreed.

"Yes, this is what I am most worried about." Yan Can said helplessly.

As early as three days ago, he had already thought of this, but he didn't point it out.

Now that three days had passed, he felt that he could not wait any longer, so he came over to make things clear.

The existence of this escaped flame beast will greatly increase the risk of everyone sneaking into the lava lake.

This means that once they really enter, they are likely to cause huge casualties.

Seeing the two of them looking sad, Zhou Kuang became a little panicked and spread his hands.

"Then what should we do?"

Yan Can shook his head and said: "I don't know either, so I came to you to discuss whether to enter the lava lake or not."

If you enter, there will be huge danger.

If we don't advance, that is to say, we give up the immortal flame crystal. In the end, we pay a lot of casualties, but we fall short.

Thinking about it carefully, I really feel unwilling to accept it. This is a dilemma.

Fairy Ice Phoenix had a cold face, and after thinking for a moment, she said: "I will not give up easily on the Immortal Flame Crystal. Third Elder, you should be the same, too."

"This..." Yan Can gritted his teeth and nodded, finally confessing.

"I am bound to get the Immortal Flame Crystal, so I came to discuss it with you two to see if there is any good way."

When Zhou Kuang heard this, he was a little dissatisfied, "You old boy, you are full of bad ideas. You just want us to bear the casualties together. Humph, I won't do it."

Yan Can was a little anxious. If these people from the Demon Temple backed down, then he would have no chance of obtaining the Immortal Flame Crystal.

If we only rely on the people from his Heavenly Fire Dao Sect, we can go deep into the rock

Jiangdi Lake is too dangerous.

Even he was not sure at all.

As Zhou Kuang said, he had to bring people along to share the risk.

Thinking of this, he made up his mind and said: "If we obtain the Immortal Flame Crystal, it will be 50-50 for us. What do you two think?"

Hearing this, Bingfeng and Zhou Kuang looked at each other, their faces relaxed, and they were a little tempted.
