Chapter 143: Burn Me to Your Heart’s Content!

Lan Yan and Xu Xiaolan walked through the sect.

Two beauties walking together naturally attracted the gazes of many disciples. Besides, they were outstanding talents of the younger generation. The two of them were already accustomed to such attention though, and they paid little heed to these fervent gazes.

“There, that’s where I saw them before.”

Lan Yan pointed toward a small plaza ahead of them. “At the time, they strolled about as if they were on a spring outing. It was so funny!”

Xu Xiaolan nodded. “And then? Which direction did they head toward?”

Lan Yan faltered momentarily. “Um… I didn’t pay attention at the time,” she said apologetically, “I was busy laughing…”

“You… Then what did you bring me here for?!” Xu Xiaolan’s head throbbed. Say, did she bring her here to nick the boat to seek the?sword?1??

Right at this moment, a male hurriedly flew past on his sword.

“Hey! Brother Mo Hai, where are you in such a rush to get to?” Lan Yan yelled in excitement upon seeing the male.

Mo Hai was the strongest individual of the younger generation in the Vermilion Bird Sect. Regardless of whether it was his bloodline power or his overall strength, he was leaps and bounds ahead of all the prodigies of the younger generation.

Even Xu Xiaolan, with her supreme talents, was unable to match his brilliance.

Hearing Lan Yan’s question, Mo Hai paused in the sky. There was a hint of excitement in his vermilion-colored eyes. “Oh, it’s Sister Lan Yan and Sister Xu Xiaolan. Something major happened at the Practice Arena of Flames. I’m hurrying over to check it out!”

“What happened?” Xu Xiaolan felt a little uneasy. For some reason, that trouble-making person popped into her mind.

“I heard that a person… no, it was a monkey. The purity of this monkey’s flame surpassed ninety percent! I need to see who this mighty figure is!

“Alright, I’ll be heading off first!”

Saying this, Mo Hai flew off on his sword, not willing to waste even a single second.

Hearing his explanation, Xu Xiaolan and Lan Yan were a bit dumbfounded.

“Heavens! A flame purity of over ninety percent?” Lan Yan stammered. “If I remember correctly, you and Mo Hai both have a flame purity of eighty-something percent, yeah? Where did this fearsome monkey come from?”

Xu Xiaolan was still stuck in a stupor.?Could it be Xiao Chou?

It can’t be… Doesn’t Xiao Chou use a silver staff? Since when did his flame element immortal spells become so powerful?

She knew that it wasn’t time to be mulling over such matters right now and she jumped onto her sword. “Sister Lan Yan, let’s go to the practice arena as well!”

Hearing this, Lan Yan nodded. She jumped on her Fiery Feather Fan and followed behind Xu Xiaolan.

At this moment, the practice arena had already descended into chaos.

The disciples of the Vermilion Bird Sect felt as if their emotions had been taken on a rollercoaster.

Initially, they were stunned. Seeing Xiao Chou’s appearance, they were terrified. Afterward, though, they felt stunned again.

Gradually… this changed into fanaticism!

The disciples crowded around An Lin and the others, giving them absolutely no space to move around.

“Brother Monkey, Brother Monkey, who did you cultivate under?”

“What?! You came from the Myriad Mountain Realm?”

“Your flame techniques are so powerful, who did you learn them from? Can you tell this little sister?”

“What?! Brother Monkey, you’re this brother’s beast pet?!”

“Hah? You’re Heavenly Court’s An Lin?”

…

All types of random questions were thrown their way and An Lin’s eardrums almost burst from the commotion.

Xiao Chou, on the other hand, seemed to be enjoying himself. He had an ugly smile on his face the entire time.

It was because this was the first time that he had felt so welcomed…

At this moment, a red light streaked into the practice arena.

“It’s Brother Mo Hai!”

The disciples all cleared a path for him.

Mo Hai was the strongest individual of the younger generation. Both his power and potential were extremely terrifying.

Seeing Brother Mo Hai enter, they naturally didn’t dare block his path. Everyone looked toward this sect?brother?2?in awe and veneration.

An Lin saw an ordinary-looking male with vermilion-colored eyes walk over.

This was probably the Brother Mo Hai that the disciples all spoke of. A vast and powerful aura radiated from him and he was clearly no pushover.

“I’m Mo Hai. Are you the monkey whose flame purity is over ninety percent?” the male asked directly. He cupped his fists and saluted at Xiao Chou.

“Yes.” Xiao Chou nodded.

“Heh, very well…”

A flame flickered in Mo Hai’s eyes, and he let rip the full power of his aura.

Boom!

Scorching flames started emanating outwards from his body.

The disciples all moved back in panic, their faces pale with fright.

Seeing this, An Lin was extremely startled. This was the power of a domain!

No… It was only in its embryonic stages and hadn’t been fully developed yet. Half-Step Soul Formation Stage?

Mo Hai was enveloped in vermilion flames, and his eyes were burning with eagerness as he looked toward Xiao Chou.

Xiao Chou gripped his silver staff in hand and didn’t retreat a single step.

He knew that this battle was already inevitable!

Seeing this, Mo Hai started laughing heartily. He clenched his fists and his shirt ripped open, revealing his solid muscles.

“Hahahaha…

“Now…

“Please use your most powerful flame and burn me to your heart’s content!”

Saying this, he raised his arms and shut his eyes. He looked like a saint waiting to accept the divine light of God.

“Fine! Let us battle hearti— Huh?” With his silver staff raised in a striking position, Xiao Chou’s light-bulb-like eyes widened. He still hadn’t wrapped his mind around what Mo Hai just uttered.

An Lin: “…”

An Lin rubbed his eyes. Then, he grimaced as he glanced at the half-naked Mo Hai who was still standing with his eyes shut.

Seeing that Xiao Chou was unmoving, Mo Hai opened his eyes. “What’s wrong,” he asked urgently. “Come burn me!”

Xiao Chou: “…”

“I beg you! Just cast your spell one more time,” Mo Hai pleaded. “Pretend that I’m the red crystal wall, okay?”

At this moment, the spectating disciples also started chanting.

“Burn him! Burn him! Burn him!”

“Hurry up and burn Brother Mo Hai!”

“Brother Monkey, I beg you! Please hurry up and burn him…”

…

It was as if they were passing judgment on a heretic, and An Lin was shocked speechless.

Xiao Chou scratched his head. Seeing the impassioned crowd as well as Mo Hai’s pleading look, he finally launched a ball of flame grudgingly.

As if it were going to swallow all matter, the flame brought with it a feeling of death and desolation as it smashed into Mo Hai’s chest.

“Ahhh!”

Mo Hai’s heart-wrenching scream reverberated throughout the practice arena. The flames of his domain clashed violently with Xiao Chou’s black flames.

Upon entering the practice arena, Xu Xiaolan and Lan Yan were immediately greeted with Mo Hai’s agonized screams.

“Ah… Brother Monkey, up your firepower a bit!

“Ahhh! I can’t bear it! Brother Monkey, slow down a bit.

“Ah… Brother Monkey, let the flames burn more fiercely!”

The disciples all stood around and watched on, their faces flushed in excitement…

“Hahahaha… Brother Mo Hai’s screams are hilarious!” Lan Yan could hear Mo Hai’s screams before she could see his body, and she burst into another fit of laughter.

When Xu Xiaolan and Lan Yan finally managed to push their way through the crowd, the intense ‘battle’ had already come to an end.

Mo Hai’s upper body was scorched red and black. He lay half-dead on the floor, and the smell of roast meat wafted from his body.

However, a satisfied smile stretched across his face.

He had grasped the intent realm—that of all matter being engulfed—of Xiao Chou’s flames!

He was a lunatic. As long as it was a powerful flame, he would test it out with his body.

He had a unique natural talent which allowed him to precisely sense the energy and intent realm of flames.

Through this direct comprehension of flames, he was able to modify his own techniques based on the strong points of other’s flames, thereby allowing him to grow stronger!

It was his lunacy and natural talents which allowed him to become the strongest individual of the younger generation.

Sweeping her eyes past the wretched Mo Hai, Xu Xiaolan’s gaze finally settled on the handsome male.

That male also looked over at this moment.

“An Lin!”

“Xu Xiaolan!”
