crackling

The fire quickly turned the entire street a fiery red, like a fire dragon.

"Ah! Help!" A man with his thigh burned by flames ran around the street, constantly begging for help from those around him.

A young man who seemed to know the man saw this and quickly took a bucket and poured water on his legs.

With a "whoosh," the flames, which he thought would be extinguished, instead burned even brighter, spreading directly to his entire lower body.

"Ahhh!" the burned man screamed in agony, glaring angrily at the other man. "You're definitely trying to get revenge on me because I borrowed money and didn't pay it back, aren't you?"

"I didn't..." the young man said innocently, but before he could finish, the burned man suddenly jumped up, lunged at him with a ferocious expression, and stretched out his arms to hug him tightly:

"If you won't let me have a good life, I won't let you die a good death either! Let's die together!"

The two embraced, and for some unknown reason, flames suddenly burst into a raging fire, burning them to ashes in just a few breaths...

At this moment, Long Wei stood at a distance, watching this scene, and smiled slightly, saying, "Very good, just like that! Let the flames of anger burn even brighter!"

roar--

A dragon's roar echoed continuously in the sky above the Kingdom of Mighty Dragons, and the flames burned even more fiercely.

"Hahaha, let the entire Weilong Kingdom be swallowed up by a sea of ​​fire!" Long Wei laughed triumphantly, looking at the General's Mansion at the end of the street, her smile widening.

But just then, her expression hardened slightly as she suddenly noticed a chill emanating from the alleyway entrance, followed by the flames of cultivation there going out...

Long Wei's face turned cold. "Impossible! How could anyone in this world possess the ability to stop Long Yuan? Who is it? Who exactly is it?"

Long Wei kept searching through the crowd when she suddenly spotted a man in white. He stood in a dark corner, radiating a cold aura. As the chill spread, the surrounding flames gradually dissipated and were eventually extinguished.

Long Wei's eyelids twitched involuntarily. "This guy..."

Gu Liyan spread the Xuanbing Domain throughout the entire street, its chilling aura quickly bringing the flames under control.

People who were suffering terribly suddenly found that the fire had disappeared, and they were all bewildered.

"What happened? How did the fire go out?"

"I don't know?"

"I understand! It must be that a deity is protecting our Mighty Dragon Kingdom!"

"I bet a mythical beast has appeared in the world!"

The crowd began to murmur amongst themselves, as if they themselves hadn't been the ones arguing so fiercely over a trivial matter.

Seeing that no one had noticed him, Gu Liyan quickly left the crowd and hid to avoid being discovered by anyone with ulterior motives.

Looking around at the ruins that were now reduced to ashes, he shook his head helplessly. "The flames of this Dragon's Vengeance are truly extraordinary. If I hadn't been there, I'm afraid these flames would have burned into the royal palace of the Weilong Kingdom. In that case, not only Qingge, but the entire Weilong Kingdom would probably have been destroyed."

Thinking of this, Gu Liyan couldn't help but shudder. If the Weilong Kingdom were to be destroyed because of this, it would be such a great injustice!

roar--

A dragon's roar echoed from the sky. Looking up, Gu Liyan saw that the fire dragon had already disappeared into the horizon. Only then did he breathe a sigh of relief. "It seems that it won't unleash its fury again for a while."

Just as Gu Liyan was about to leave, her legs gave way and she staggered. She leaned against the wall, shook her dizzy head, and thought to herself, "I just used the Life and Death Pact to save someone, and now I've unleashed such a large-scale Xuanbing Domain. My energy is completely depleted. I'd better go back and rest quickly."

Gu Liyan dared not linger and walked step by step toward the palace.

Little did he know that everything he had just done had been seen by Long Wei from afar.

"I never imagined I'd encounter such a stunningly beautiful demon in this world!" Long Wei licked her lips, her face contorted with madness as she recalled Gu Liyan's face. "A fox demon, is it? Sooner or later, I'll make you mine!"

As Gu Liyan walked down the street, a chill suddenly ran down his spine. He turned his head to look in the direction where Long Wei was, but found no one watching him.

"Am I overthinking it?" Gu Liyan frowned—

Qingge returned from Qingyang's place, her anger simmering with nowhere to go. "It's one thing for Qingyang to still have doubts about me, but I never expected that Yang Wei would dare to harbor ill intentions towards me. It seems I can't let him stay..."

Thinking of Yang Wei's smug and self-satisfied appearance, Qingge's anger intensified.

"Qingqing?"

Qingge was taken aback. Hearing Gu Liyan's voice, she looked in the direction of the sound and saw Gu Liyan walking heavily towards her, supporting himself against the wall.

"Gu Liyan?" Qingge's worried expression vanished instantly, replaced by immense concern as she rushed forward to support Gu Liyan. "Gu Liyan, what's wrong?"

Gu Liyan held Qingge's hand, not rushing to answer her, but instead asked anxiously, "You didn't look well just now, are you alright? Did Qingyang bully you?"

"How do you know Qingyang...?" Qingge looked at Gu Liyan with a puzzled expression.

Gu Liyan opened his mouth, pursed his lips, and said, "Actually... the fox you saved last time was me. I overheard Qingyang and Ruyi talking badly about you, so I was chased away by them, and then I got injured and met you..."

Thinking back to when she bumped into the little fox, Qingge finally understood, "So you came looking for me after that... I'm sorry, I didn't know."

Gu Liyan smiled wearily and said, "I know what Qingyang is thinking, which is why I came to participate in the Sage Competition because I was worried about you."
