Capítulo 159: Chapter 160: Unsettling Change

The discussion spread through the hall, but Li Xun ignored it, his eyes fixed on Huo Yan. He was waiting for Huo Yan's answer, his heart pounding in his chest. He knew his request was a little excessive, but he did not want to give up without trying.

Huo Yan's expression grew pensive as he considered Li Xun's request. This young disciple had certainly caught him off guard with such a bold appeal.

He had not anticipated that Li Xun would seek access to the Holy Flame Lake.

"Holy Flame Lake?" Huo Yan repeated, his brow furrowed in thought. "You know how perilous that lake is, don't you?"

"Disciple understands, Master Huo." Li Xun said earnestly. "I fully understand the risks involved. But, I believe in my strength and if I will be given a chance and I practice in Holy Lake, ieven if it is for a short time, it will surely help me improve my cultivation."
