Chapter 240: Subduing the Strange Fire
"No, Xinxin must be in front. She might be waiting for me to find her somewhere..." Ou Xuemei struggled and wanted to move forward, not feeling the pain in her feet at all.
"Mom..." Mu Qixi held his mother tightly, preventing her from going any further. The Flame Tree was a little abnormal today, the temperature was too high, and they had to leave here.
Mu Qixi picked up his mother and quickly left the center area.
"Put me down, let me go, Xinxin is still waiting for me..." Ou Xuemei was carried away by Mu Qixi, her eyes fixed on the flaming tree that was getting farther and farther away. Where was her baby...?
Mu Qingxin, who was underground, suddenly felt a palpitation in her heart and became a little panicked. She looked around and said, "Shuxin, hurry up. I have to leave. My family will be worried soon!" Mu Qingxin urged Shuxin. At this time, Shuxin was purifying the strange fire so that he could give it to Mu Qingxin.
"Wait a moment, it'll be quick!" The tree heart purified the strange fire over and over again. "Old friend, you've been wronged all these years following me. I've never let you see the world. In the future... if you have a new master, I believe you will be able to show your value even more than with me. Goodbye, old friend. I don't know when we'll meet again..."
Shu Xin said reluctantly, and the flame flashed as if it understood, "Go, find your new master..." After Shu Xin purified the strange fire, he let go of it and let it go to Mu Qingxin.
The strange fire jumped up, rubbed against the heart of the tree, and circled around the entire root of the tree. It looked at the heart of the tree reluctantly, then turned and rushed towards Mu Qingxin.
"Hah!" Mu Qingxin was startled when the strange fire suddenly rushed into her body. She looked at her body and fortunately, fortunately, she was not burned by the fire.
Yaya, who was lying on Mu Qingxin's body, also stretched her head out curiously, looking at the place where the flame had just penetrated her mother's body, "Mom, does it hurt?"
Mu Qingxin touched her stomach and shook her head, "It doesn't hurt."
"Ah, it's so hot, so hot, why is your body so hot, mom!" As soon as Mu Qingxin finished speaking, Yaya on her body screamed and immediately fell to the ground, looking at her mother who was still in a daze.
"Hot? Not hot..." Mu Qingxin touched her face and didn't feel any heat. It was still normal body temperature, but... Mu Qingxin's gaze shifted to Yaya, "Yaya, why did your body turn red?" It was green just now, why is it red now? Do you have a fever?
"Huh?" Yaya looked down at her body, then looked up blankly at Mu Qingxin opposite her, whose body had also turned red.
"Mom, you're turning red too..."
Mu Qingxin reached out and pushed her clothes forward. She looked at her arm, then at the glowing tree heart. "Uh..., it must be the color of the tree heart..."
The tree's heart flickered. "It's not me. It's the strange fire in your body, fusing with you. This little fellow has also changed because he has made a contract with you. From now on, you can use the strange fire, and it can use it too."
"Really? That's great!" Mu Qingxin was very happy after hearing this. She looked at Yaya and said, "Yaya, you will have another skill in the future. You can spit fire!" Then can her green vine also turn into a fire vine? Mu Qingxin thought excitedly.
"Okay, since the strange fire has entered my body, Shuxin, please take us away. I...ah...it hurts, it hurts..." Mu Qingxin had just said she wanted to leave when she suddenly felt a burning pain inside her body coming towards her.
Shu Xin slowly landed at his previous position and looked at Mu Qingxin, who was curled up in a ball. "You can't leave now. The strange fire has entered your body, but you still need to tame it. I'll take care of your family and the robot for you. Just stay here and tame the strange fire. If you want to use it freely in the future, taming it right now is the most important thing. Just endure it!"
Mu Qingxin endured the tremendous pain and was sweating all over. She heard Shuxin's words in a daze. When she heard Shuxin say that it would tell her mother and Pierre and the others, she felt relieved and concentrated on feeling the strange fire in her body.
Yaya, who was standing aside, stared blankly at her mother who was enduring pain. She turned her head and looked at Shuxin with hatred, "What did you do to my mother!"
The tree's heart looked helplessly at the grinning Yaya, "You can share some of your master's pain and make your hungry master feel more at ease."
Yaya put away her sharp teeth and looked at her mother in pain, "How do we share it?"
"Close your eyes and feel it with your heart..." Shu Xin watched as the little fellow actually listened to him and closed his eyes. After a while, his body turned red and flames seemed to burst from his body. He curled up and struggled in pain. Shu Xin sighed, "You little fellow really are protecting your master. Are you stupid?" He then looked at Mu Qingxin, whose pain had not eased at all. "How can the pain be alleviated? Only the two of you can bear it together. If you want to subdue the strange fire, you must be burned by it. My strange fire has grown with me and is extremely powerful. I only hope you can persevere and not die. That would be a pity. You are such a good seedling..." However, after you die, I will throw your remaining remains on my body. Together you will protect this planet and complete this glorious mission...
(Mu Qingxin: Get lost, you think too much, you're the one who's going to die. I just saved you, and you're already thinking about my death...
Yaya: Good on you! You must be afraid that I'll eat you when I grow up, so you're thinking of killing me. Humph, when I finally get through, I'll definitely devour you. Not only you, but also your children, all in one gulp! Eat them all up!!!
The tree heart looked at the man and plant who were struggling and suffering, and silently said "Come on" in his heart, then left. There were still things on the ground that needed it to deal with, otherwise the group of people above would be in trouble.
“Hmm…”
Mu Qingxin bit her lip to prevent herself from screaming. At this moment, the meridians in her body were burning with flames. The red flame was at her dantian, enveloping her life bead, burning...
Mu Qingxin felt Shuxin's departure and that Yaya beside her was also experiencing pain. At this moment, she calmed down and emptied herself, just like when she was cleansing her essence and marrow. She struggled to sit cross-legged, practicing the Solidifying Spirit Technique over and over again, circulating the spiritual energy in her body, and extinguishing the flames on her meridians over and over again.
The flames in her body were extinguished bit by bit by the spiritual energy controlled by Mu Qingxin. Wherever they went out, they would ignite again the next second. Mu Qingxin patiently extinguished them again and again, and the strange fire would ignite again and again... It was as if Mu Qingxin and the strange fire were competing to see who would give in first, one extinguishing and the other igniting, over and over again...
