Who Brought Him into the Cultivation World?

Chapter 53: Chapter 52: Dragon’s Return

Qin Family Castle.

Perched atop the mountain, the Northern Border Mountain might not be high, but building a city here makes it easy to defend and hard to attack. The city is not large, but it is as solid as a fortress.

It resembles a fortress, surrounded by high walls on all sides, with towers every ten meters. There are cultivators guarding it strictly, and at the only main gate, there are dozens of cultivators watching over.

With such a lineup, it’s nearly impossible for external enemies to launch a stealth attack; even if they were in the sky, they would be discovered immediately.

Han Yu looked at the towering fortress from a distance, feeling somewhat unsure of how to proceed.

”Since the Bai Family sold the person here, there should be a trap set inside waiting for me.”

Han Yu murmured to himself, leaning against a tree halfway up the mountain, looking out.

At this moment, the city gate was wide open, except for those gate-guarding cultivators, no one entered or exited all day. Although he couldn’t see inside the city clearly, the eerie quietness of the city could be felt.

”Just waiting for you to enter, then they’ll close the gate and beat the dog.”

Glass said in his mind, pouring cold water on his thoughts.

Han Yu rolled his eyes and thought to himself, ”Why can’t I make them come out instead?”

Little Artifact Spirit seemed to read his mind, reacting immediately.

”You’re thinking about starting a fire again!”

If it works, then why not, Han Yu let go of the tree trunk and jumped down, then moved a little closer.

His gaze swept around the vicinity of the Qin Family fortress. Within a hundred meters of the city gate is a large area that had been artificially cleared, presumably the Qin Family had prepared defenses against fire attacks when they first built the city.

Han Yu summoned a Fire Lotus in each hand and threw them far to the left and right. As the Fire Lotus landed, it seemed to take root and continued to grow larger.

Sizzle~ Crack!

The damp tree trunk was burned by the Fire Lotus, first sizzling with thick smoke, and after the smoke cleared, it ignited instantly. The fire expanded continuously, spreading around the four sides of the Qin Family fortress under Han Yu’s deliberate control.

The fire born from the Fire Lotus not only burned fiercely but also had strong adhesiveness. In just a quarter of an hour, the whole small mountain was thoroughly ignited.

The soaring flames instantly surrounded the entire Qin Family Castle...

”Is the person here?”

Inside the Council Hall, Qin Tiannan saw a cultivator rush in, his expression somewhat moved, he asked gruffly.

However, the cultivator appeared panicked, saying in a shocked tone, ”The person hasn’t entered, but the entire mountain outside our city is on fire.”

What!

Qin Tiannan slammed the table and stood up furiously; after all the efforts and arrangements, the person didn’t enter, and he even set a fire at their doorstep.

”Inform all the Elders to go out and capture the scoundrel.”

Qin Tiannan frowned and said angrily.

”Patriarch, you mustn’t!”

An urgent voice came from outside the hall, and it was Second Qin who rushed in anxiously.

He had just reached the door when he heard Qin Tiannan’s order and hurriedly spoke up.

Having suffered losses in the Fire Zone, he was unwilling to plunge in again, so he quickly explained to Qin Tiannan, ”This person can manipulate fire, moving freely in the sea of flames. As long as the fire isn’t extinguished, he can’t be found.”

Qin Tiannan contemplated after hearing this, then looked up at Second Qin, who suggested, ”The more he wants to lure us out, the more it means he wants to come in. If he really takes advantage of the chaos to break in, the cultivators below the Divine Gaze Realm won’t be able to stop him.”

”Let’s wait it out. The wildfire will eventually burn out, then when he has nowhere to hide, we’ll take action to kill him.”

Qin Tiannan thought about it and nodded coldly, saying, ”Then let the disciples in all places hold their positions; I don’t believe he won’t come in.”

”I don’t believe you won’t come out!”

Han Yu roamed continuously in the Fire Zone, having waited for a long time without seeing a single figure.

Both sides are afraid of losing, Han Yu fears being trapped and killed after entering the city, while the Qin Family’s high officials fear Han Yu’s devastating power against cultivators below the Divine Gaze Realm.

Both sides fear being infiltrated, and being blocked in.

But precisely because of this, Han Yu could stand at the gate and set fires without any qualms.

”It seems you’ve messed up.”

At this time, Little Artifact Spirit reminded him in his mind.

Then switch to a different method, Han Yu waved his hand, conjured a Fire Dragon from the sea of flames, and aimed it straight at the city gate. The group of cautious cultivators immediately closed the heavy city gate.

The Fire Dragon hit and exploded instantly. Who knows what the Qin Family coated on the surface of the city gate, but it couldn’t adhere to the fire. The sparks hit the gate, then scattered and fell like flowers.

Han Yu was somewhat disappointed and immediately set his sights on the towers. Simultaneously, several Fire Dragons shot into the sky, spiraling toward the nearest towers.

”Take cover!”

A cultivator shouted and leaped off, but the Fire Dragon suddenly exploded in midair, scattering flames all around like a celestial maid scattering flowers. Some unfortunate cultivators who couldn’t dodge in time were engulfed and died on the spot.

Han Yu’s face grew slightly pale, but he was overjoyed.

It works!

Now he saw the city was already engulfed in thick smoke, and soon flames appeared.

The effect was remarkable, except he hadn’t anticipated the mental energy drain to be so severe over such distances. His Sea of Consciousness was now likely unable to support repeated casting.

Otherwise, setting the entire Qin Family Castle on fire a few more times wouldn’t be a problem.

”Patriarch! The city is on fire everywhere.”

Another panicked cultivator ran in, face pale, as the heavenly fire descended and spread above the Qin Family Castle, many clansmen in his view were burned alive to charcoal.

Qin Tiannan, face frosty, stormed out of the Council Hall. Once outside and seeing half the Qin Family in a sudden sea of fire, all previous arrangements became a laughingstock.
