Suo Yiyi sounded melancholic. She paused before she continued, “Speaking of which, this is the second time you have saved me, Miss Lou… I really don’t know how I should repay you.”
She took out a piece of brilliant and vibrant red crystal stone and handed it to Lou Qianxue. “I’m giving this thing to you.”
Lou Qianxue doubtfully looked at her and did not accept it.
“Didn’t you ask me if I have any unfulfilled wishes? I indeed have something to request you. This is the reward for it.”
“When I had asked you, I hadn’t done it for the sake of getting a reward.”
“I know. It’s just that I’m going to die, so there’s no point in keeping it. Instead, you can use it to enter the boundary of the Abnormal Fire. Moreover, I don’t have any other valuable possessions. Miss Lou, this is the first and the only gift that I’m giving you. You have to accept it.”
After staring at the red crystal stone for a while, Lou Qianxue stretched her hand out to receive it.
Suo Yiyi curled her lips and smiled. “Thank you!”
“What’s your wish?”
“I have a sister called Yingying. I had lost her when our family clan was destroyed. I hope that you can find her before she turns sixteen, before her celestial bloodline awakens. Don’t let her turn out like me, who got reduced to being a sacrifice for outsiders to enter the boundary of the Abnormal Fire!”
“Alright.” Lou Qianxue solemnly nodded.
“I feel assured to hear you say this… Do you know? She has a mole below her right eye, and a dimple on only half of her face. She looks so cute when she smiles… However, she will become an adult in three more years. I wish so much… I wish so much that she…”
Suo Yiyi was still speaking when her gaze gradually became empty…
Even her voice gradually became softer.
Lou Qianxue silently closed her eyes.
Half an hour later.
Lou Qianxue and Gong Sunheng buried Suo Yiyi in Qingyun Mountain. They then used the red crystal stone Suo Yiyi gave them to enter the boundary of the Abnormal Fire.
“So warm!”
When they entered through the boundary, a warm wave greeted them.
When they looked at it again, they found that the inside of the boundary was the same as the outside. The only difference was that bits and pieces of magnificent and unusual sparks were floating in the air here.
Lou Qianxue’s eyes became warm as she watched this sight. “Is this the ‘Phantom Demon Heart Fire’?”
Gong Sunheng excitedly nodded. “Yes! However, these are just bits of sparks, and there’s no way to keep them for a long time. The real source of the Abnormal Fire should be deeper within the boundary, waiting for us to find it.”
“These bits of sparks are already so impressive. They are so hot that I can’t endure it! An Abnormal Fire is indeed impressive.”
Lou Qianxue was still speaking when—
Whish!
A clear yellow fire descended from the sky and directly attacked Lou Qianxue.
“Be careful!”
Gong Sunheng shouted as he stretched his hand out to pull Lou Qianxue.
However, Lou Qianxue was faster than him. She swept to the side and dodged it.
The fire paused for a while in the air, then a moment later, it split into two!
Whoosh! Whoosh!
Both balls of fire shot toward Lou Qianxue and Gong Sunheng at the same time!
An Abnormal Fire was too powerful, and it could burn many items!
Just a little bit of it was already hard for others to endure.
“Gongsun, have you prepared the sealed scroll?”
In order to absorb the Abnormal Fire, the first step was to seal the fire in the scroll. It would then absorb the Abnormal Fire into the scroll.
“Of course. I was fully prepared before I came. Take it!” Gong Sunheng took out a sealed scroll and threw it toward Lou Qianxue.
Lou Qianxue caught the scroll and opened it.
Whoosh!
A powerful suction force absorbed the Abnormal Fire chasing her into the scroll. The fire became a yellow flame mark on the scroll.
“Phew!” Gong Sunheng heaved a sigh of relief. “This little bit of the Abnormal Fire is already so impressive. If it had been the fire from the source… Can we really obtain the Abnormal Fire?”
He was complaining, but Lou Qianxue had a strange expression. She took out the red crystal stone Suo Yiyi gave to her from her sleeve. “It’s emitting heat.”
