In the space. Gu Yuena sat with her back to Xiao Se, both of them sitting cross-legged.
"It might be a little painful later, you need to endure it." Looking at Gu Yuena's perfect figure, Xiao Se swallowed hard.
"Come on." Gu Yuena's voice was cold and clear, devoid of joy or sorrow, but if one were to look at her facial expression from the front, one would find her cheeks flushed red; clearly, her heart was not as calm as she imagined.
"Mm." Xiao Se did not hesitate, his expression instantly becoming quite serious as he brushed aside her long hair with his left hand. Raising his right palm, a cluster of golden flames rose from it. He then slowly pressed it against Gu Yuena's jade-like back. Her clothes instantly disintegrated. Under the control of Xiao Se's formidable Soul perception, the Exotic Fire gradually merged into Gu Yuena's body.
Hiss!
As soon as the Exotic Fire entered her body, Gu Yuena gasped; clearly, the pain of the Exotic Fire's tempering exceeded her expectations.
"Endure it a little. I will try to be as gentle as possible." Xiao Se said in a deep voice.
"No need, just do it. Compared to the injuries I sustained in the great war in the God Realm, this bit of pain is nothing." Gu Yuena bit her silver teeth tightly, a trace of stubbornness appearing on her stunningly beautiful face.
Xiao Se nodded heavily, took a deep breath, and while probing with his Soul power, he activated his X-ray vision, instantly seeing the blood-colored energy rampaging inside her body. He immediately controlled the Exotic Fire to wrap around it, gradually refining it.
Meanwhile, Ning Fengzhi had already arrived at Spirit City with Sword Douluo.
After Ning Fengzhi stated his purpose, the Holy Maiden of Spirit Hall, Hu Liena, invited him to the Supreme Pontiff Palace.
"School Master Ning, I represent the Spirit Empire in welcoming the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School's joining. My teacher is not currently in Spirit City, so please forgive any lack of hospitality." Hu Liena gracefully invited Ning Fengzhi to take a seat. In her early twenties, she had shed the coquettishness of two years ago, giving people a sense of maturity and steadiness, and her cultivation had even stepped from Spirit Saint to Titled Douluo.
Ning Fengzhi smiled faintly and said, "Hehe, not at all, not at all. Her Majesty the Empress is busy with daily affairs, and it is we who are disturbing her. Moreover, being able to meet the youngest Titled Douluo on the entire continent here means this trip was not in vain."
"This is all due to the excellent guidance of my teacher and grand-teacher." Mentioning Bibi Dong and Xiao Se, Hu Liena could not help but feel an uncontrollable sense of pride.
One must know that the reason she was able to step from Spirit Saint to Titled Douluo in these past two years, aside from her own diligent cultivation and her own remarkable talent, was largely due to the help of Bibi Dong and Xiao Se. The former gathered a full set of 100,000-year Spirit Bones for her and traveled to the sea without regard for the hardship to hunt 100,000-year Spirit Beasts, filling in her eighth and ninth spirit rings.
The latter provided her with Cultivation Techniques and Medicinal Pills that could assist in cultivation, as well as a type of flame that could accelerate cultivation. It was precisely by relying on these that she was able to complete the liquefaction of her spirit power, condense spirit crystals, and step into the realm of Titled Douluo that countless people dream of in just two short years. Title: Charming FoxDouluo.
"Since School Master Ning already knows about my teacher and grand-teacher's affairs, and Ning Rongrong has also taken my grand-teacher as her master, in the future, the Spirit Empire will provide protection to the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School." Hu Liena said, "However, what I want to know is, where has my grand-teacher gone?"
"After Lord Xiao Se annihilated the Clear Sky Sect, he left with Miss Xiao Yi Xian and Miss Zhu Zhuqing by his side. It is said that they went to fill in the spirit rings on his body." Ning Fengzhi answered with a smile.
Hearing this, Hu Liena was stunned for a moment, then suddenly remembered that her teacher had said there were several women by Xiao Se's side, and Xiao Yi Xian and Zhu Zhuqing were undoubtedly among them. She hadn't met Xiao Yi Xian and didn't know much about her, but she knew quite a bit about Zhu Zhuqing, the second Young Miss of the Zhu Family in the Star Luo Empire.
Her talent could barely be considered extraordinary, and she came from the noble Zhu Family of the Star Luo Empire. Bound by Family rules, she had been engaged to Dai Mubai since childhood. Therefore, she had to compete with her sister Zhu Zhuyun for the position of Family heir. The loser of the competition would be killed or imprisoned to avoid internal Family strife. Thus, she was in a dire situation.
She met Xiao Se at the age of twelve, and her life changed from then on. She broke off her engagement with Dai Mubai and escaped the control of the Zhu Family. Now, four years later, following by Xiao Se's side, her strength had reached a level that made ordinary people look up to her; she could severely injure four Titled Douluo of the Clear Sky Sect. This was something even Hu Liena herself might not be able to do.
Thinking of this, Hu Liena's heart couldn't help but feel a little sour, and she thought to herself: "What a lucky person!"
Time flowed slowly, and in the blink of an eye, a month had passed. Deep in the Star Dou Great Forest, at the bottom of the Lake of Life, within the space constructed by Gu Yuena.
"It's finally done." Xiao Se took a deep breath, wiped the non-existent cold sweat from his forehead, and gathered the refined divine force of the Asura God along with the Exotic Fire into his body. These Asura divine forces might be a fatal existence for Gu Yuena, but for Xiao Se, they were an Opportunity; possessing the Exotic Fire, as long as he had enough time, he could refine them.
He looked at Gu Yuena. At this moment, all the clothes on Gu Yuena's body had been incinerated, revealing her perfect, snow-white body. Because Xiao Se was taller than Gu Yuena, from his visual angle, he could vaguely see two beautiful peaks.
"Have you seen enough?" Gu Yuena's body trembled slightly, her cheeks flushed red, and even her neck was stained with a layer of pink.
"What's wrong with you?" Gu Yuena's abnormality made Xiao Se's face reveal a look of confusion. He activated his Soul power to probe, and his brows suddenly furrowed. He discovered that Gu Yuena was actually refining the Exotic Fire.
No wonder the Exotic Fire was consumed so quickly during the process of dispelling the Asura divine force for her earlier. It turned out that Gu Yuena had taken advantage of the time when he was wholeheartedly dispelling the Asura divine force to secretly gather the scattered Exotic Fire bit by bit, intending to refine it.
"N-nothing." Gu Yuena's voice trembled, and a look of pain appeared on her stunningly beautiful face.
"You still say it's nothing? You actually attempted to refine the Exotic Fire! You must know that such wonders of heaven and earth, without any preparation, even the Dou Sheng powerhouses in our World would not dare to refine them casually. Ice Heart should have mentioned Venerable Skyfire to you, right? He was much more powerful than you are now, and he died because he tried to refine two Exotic Fires and was backlashed by them. And my Exotic Fire is even more powerful than his; it is a Fusion of four Exotic Fires and one fake Exotic Fire." Xiao Se reprimanded her with some anger, "You are now being backlashed by the Exotic Fire."
"Then what do you say I should do?" Gu Yuena became a bit anxious upon hearing this. She still shouldered the mission of reviving the Spirit Beast race and could not die.
"Turn around, and I will first try to see if I can guide those Exotic Fires out of your body." Xiao Se said with a sense of righteousness. Actually, Gu Yuena's situation was not as serious as Xiao Se said. Although the fused Exotic Fire was strong, it ultimately belonged to Xiao Se. Even if it was refined by Gu Yuena, it belonged to the existence of a child fire. He could summon it out with a wave of his hand. It was just that he had exhausted himself to dispel the Asura divine force for Gu Yuena, and the other party had actually thought of stealing his Exotic Fire. He had to teach her a lesson and collect some interest.
And Gu Yuena's current situation was obviously exactly the same as the symptoms he had shown when he fused the Fallen Heart Flame and Sea Heart Flame back then. Dragons are inherently lustful, and if nothing unexpected happens…
