"Bang!"
In the next instant, Xiao Yixian's jade-like palm was instantly wrapped in golden flames, then shot straight toward Xiao Yan's head.
Relying on the Emperor Spirit Flame, she could sense that there was an extremely cold, yet scorching flame hidden there. It was clear that the Heavenly Flame within his brow was the Bone Chilling Flame her husband needed.
The very moment Xiao Yixian's Emperor Spirit Flame entered Xiao Yan's mind—the cloth in his mouth instantly turned to ashes.
"Ah!"
Xiao Yan let out an agonized and piercing scream.
After all, letting a Heavenly Flame enter one's mind was no laughing matter. But since his strength had been sealed, even though the pain was unbearable, he was powerless to resist. At that moment, Xiao Yixian's slender brows furrowed slightly.
Her soul power swept through Xiao Yan's mind, carefully searching for the position of the Bone Chilling Flame. Moments later, as her jade arm suddenly pulled back, Xiao Yan's body convulsed violently.
At the same time, a streak of white flame shot out from the space between his brows. It flashed through the air like lightning and landed directly onto Xiao Yixian's pale, slender hand. At this moment, Lin Feng finally saw the Bone Chilling Flame clearly.
This flame was entirely pale white, and as it burned, faint waves of icy air occasionally rose from it. However, though it looked extremely cold, if one focused carefully, they would sense that beneath the coldness hid an equally intense heat.
"Lin Feng, return the Bone Chilling Flame to me! Whatever you want, we can discuss it!"
Even though the Heavenly Flame had been forcibly pulled out of him, and his head felt like it was splitting open, Xiao Yan still clenched his teeth and spoke through trembling lips.
After all, the Bone Chilling Flame had been left to him by his master—it allowed him to sense his master's life force and safety.
To him, it carried deep emotional meaning. Of course, he also knew that threats would be useless now. All his earlier attempts at intimidation had failed completely. So, this time, he tried persuasion.
"Heh, no matter what conditions you offer, my answer is still no. If you want to blame someone, blame yourself. If you hadn't gotten greedy and tried to steal my Heavenly Flame, none of this would've happened."
Lin Feng cast a calm glance at Xiao Yan and spoke indifferently.
No matter what Xiao Yan said, there was no way he would return the Bone Chilling Flame. Don't be fooled by how submissive this guy was acting right now—once he regained his freedom, he'd surely show an entirely different face.
"Here."
At this moment, Xiao Yixian extended her jade arm and handed the Bone Chilling Flame to Lin Feng.
Seeing this, Lin Feng's face lit up with delight as he received the white flame. After all, the Bone Chilling Flame was ranked eleventh among the Heavenly Flames. Even though he had already advanced to the Dou Zun realm, absorbing it would still grant him tremendous benefits.
In the original story, Xiao Yan had absorbed the Bone Chilling Flame while only at Two-Star Dou Zun, and his strength had instantly soared to Four-Star Dou Zun.
One had to know—at the Dou Zun level, even training for decades or centuries might not guarantee a single star's breakthrough. However, upon closer inspection—
Lin Feng discovered, just as he had guessed, that this Bone Chilling Flame indeed carried Yao Chen's soul imprint. Though this soul imprint prevented him from immediately absorbing the flame, it wasn't entirely a bad thing.
After all, without Yao Chen's soul suppression, this Bone Chilling Flame would have gone berserk like any wild Heavenly Flame. A ranked eleventh Heavenly Flame could never be captured so easily otherwise.
After confirming that there was no trace of Xiao Yan's soul imprint, Lin Feng handed the Bone Chilling Flame back to Xiao Yixian. His Green Lotus Core Flame wasn't currently with him, and he couldn't control this flame without revealing his other Heavenly Flames.
As someone who had shared a bed with him for years, Xiao Yixian instantly understood his intent. Thus, she swiftly took the Bone Chilling Flame, wrapped it tightly in layers of Emperor Spirit Flame, and tucked it into her sleeve.
After all, this was something that could not be stored inside a spatial ring. She could only carry it on her person, wrapping it tightly in layers of Heavenly Flame to keep the Bone Chilling Flame from harming her.
"Lin Feng, that flame also bears my master's soul imprint. Even if you take it, no one else can absorb it. Besides, you already have a Heavenly Flame—absorbing a second one is impossible. Why not return it to me instead? I can find a way to get you a Heaven Class cultivation technique."
"You should know, Heaven Class cultivation techniques are extremely precious. With one, your strength and cultivation speed will soar tremendously!"
Seeing that Lin Feng showed no reaction, Xiao Yan quickly added.
However, Lin Feng had no patience for his nonsense. With a wave of his hand, a whip formed from Dou Qi lashed out, tightly binding Xiao Yan. Even his eyes, ears, and mouth were sealed shut.
Then, Lin Feng turned and strode toward the exit of the cultivation room. Seeing this, Xiao Yixian immediately followed close behind.
"Husband, how did it go?"
As Lin Feng stepped out, Feng Qing'er and Ye Xin Lan, who had been waiting in the main hall, hurried forward to ask.
"It's done. Next, we'll take this guy to the space wormhole entrance at the city center."
Lin Feng nodded slightly, shaking the bound Xiao Yan in his hand.
Even now, this guy still hadn't given up. Even with his mouth sealed, he was clearly trying to say something. But Lin Feng and the others simply ignored him.
"Then shall we drag him out now?"
Hearing that Lin Feng had already obtained the Bone Chilling Flame, Feng Qing'er asked.
"Mm."
Lin Feng nodded. He had already gotten everything he came for. Now, it was time to give Xiao Yan a little "walk" through the city.
He turned to Feng Qing'er and said, "Qing'er, in a moment you'll take Xin'er and Elder Ye Zhong and head straight to Ye City through the space wormhole. As for this matter, Xian'er and I can handle it."
Upon hearing that, Feng Qing'er frowned slightly, puzzled. "Why?"
Even Ye Xin Lan beside her showed confusion on her delicate face.
"Heh, I plan to drag Xiao Yan to the central square of Qing Ling City and carry out a public 'execution'. That way, the fact that Xiao Yan ambushed me won't be something certain people can suppress anymore. But, in their anger, they might accuse me of publicly spreading the matter and damaging the reputation of the Pill Tower."
"However, as long as no elders are present, I can always claim that I was just being young and impulsive—angry after being ambushed, so I spoke out to let everyone judge for themselves."
At this, Lin Feng sneered. "But if Elder Ye Zhong were present, they might use him as an excuse to attack us. That would only make things troublesome."
"You have a point."
After hearing this, Feng Qing'er nodded in realization.
Ye Xin Lan also began to understand. After all, Lin Feng's personality was "reckless," and his actions impulsive. But he was only around twenty years old—hot-blooded and young. As long as he didn't cross the line, his behavior could always be brushed off as youthful impulsiveness.
However, if Elder Ye Zhong appeared, they couldn't possibly claim that a hundred-year-old elder was just a childish youth acting on impulse.
"Alright, we'll do as you said."
Having thought it through, Feng Qing'er took Ye Xin Lan's hand and nodded.
"Good, then let's move right away."
Seeing no one had objections, Lin Feng spoke decisively.
After saying that, he took Xiao Yixian's soft, pale hand and dragged the bound Xiao Yan out of the room. Meanwhile, Feng Qing'er and Ye Xin Lan called for Elder Ye Zhong next door, then headed toward Ye City through the space wormhole.
