Even Tingxue looked at Zuan with a puzzled expression. Why did this feeling seem so familiar?
Fireworks even suspected that Zuan had used some strange skill, forcing Zuan to reply, "In your life, have you never felt any warmth?"
This question caused the once imposing Fireworks to turn pale: "Nonsense, what does that have to do with anything!"
Zuan looked at her with some pity: "I do have that skill, called 'Unbreakable Love,' but I haven't used it on you yet. The reason you reacted this way is probably because you've been starved for love in this life. If someone is even slightly nice to you, you'll feel something different."
Upon hearing the words "love stronger than gold," Tingxue's expression shifted. She felt as if she had heard these words before, but unfortunately, she had embarked on the path of chaos and had forgotten too many things.
Once this thought arose, it quickly dissipated like ripples, and everything returned to chaos, rendering all the events in between meaningless.
Fireworks, however, was somewhat taken aback: "Laughable, you think I'd lack love? Do you know how many men in all the worlds are lining up to lick my feet but don't even have the chance? How many world giants and big shots are vying to send me all sorts of rare treasures? How many people are willing to die for me? You think I'd lack love?"
Seeing the other person's emotional fluctuations and somewhat aggressive demeanor, Zuan sighed softly: "You should know that it's not true love."
Fireworks fell silent instantly. How could she not know that those people were afraid of her and were doing all this just to curry favor with her?
Others were simply after her beauty; their motives were anything but pure.
None of this can compare to that moment with the Eight Desolations Suppressing Prison Mystic Array, even though at the time this kid didn't know she was the true target of that great array.
But at that time, the other person protected her tightly with their body, and apart from that first lash, they didn't let her get hurt at all. That kind of love and care, which was absolutely pure and untainted by any other factors, was why she was so moved at the time.
Of course, she would never admit to any of this, and proudly declared:
"You brat, there's a limit to how much you can take my favor! I was only lenient with you before because we'd been through thick and thin together, but you're actually lecturing me now? You're asking for it!"
As he spoke, his aura suddenly expanded, and an aura comparable to that of a true god descended upon the entire space. Tingxue frowned slightly, gripped her long sword tightly, and also began to gather her strength.
Zu An felt that he was having some difficulty breathing, but the power of the earth veins in this forbidden area was extremely strong. He could use the "Dripping Heaven Essence Elucidation" to mobilize the power of the earth veins for his own use. In addition, the "Gluttonous Devouring Heaven Technique" could absorb and transform a lot of energy, so he was able to barely hold on.
Just then, a spider web suddenly appeared in the sky.
A bright sword light flashed, and Tingxue drew her sword, instantly cleaving the spider web in two.
However, the spider silk seemed to be alive, transforming into countless long snakes that swept towards the two of them.
Tingxue swung her sword again and again, cutting off countless waves of attacks. Unfortunately, she lost focus for a moment, and her wrist was entangled by a spider silk, causing her to pause.
In that instant, her entire body was entangled in spider silk, and she was soon unable to move.
Zuan was also in a bad situation. She directly unleashed the White Lotus True Fire, along with the Phoenix Divine Flame, thinking that she could suppress the spider silk. However, the spider silk was extremely strange and remained unharmed after passing through the sea of fire.
Despite his attempts to dodge, he was eventually entangled in the spider silk.
Seeing that the two were unable to move, Fireworks smiled smugly: "Now you can't escape, can you?"
Tingxue remained expressionless, her eyes, as beautiful as a galaxy, began to turn as chaotic as if she were gathering a powerful attack.
Fireworks frowned upon seeing this: "The Chaos Envoy is indeed troublesome..."
Just as she was about to make another move, Zuan suddenly spoke up: "All you want is the key to break the seal. If you agree to release Tingxue, Isabella, and Alfred and the others, I can give you the key."
Fireworks couldn't help but laugh and said, "I didn't expect you to be such a loyal and righteous person. But in this cruel universe, being so soft-hearted will only hurt yourself and others."
Zu An said in a deep voice, "But those people came to save you. Wouldn't it be repaying kindness with enmity if you killed them?"
"They came to save me on the surface, but they all have ulterior motives. Only someone as naive as you would believe that," Fireworks snorted, then her expression turned cold. "I am that kind of ungrateful person. You are my prisoners now, so what right do you have to negotiate with me?"
“I am indeed no match for you, but I have a way to take you down with me. I hope you won’t force me.” Zuan said calmly.
Fireworks frowned: "Oh? You're going to use that bluffing tactic again?"
Zuan shook his head slightly: "No, this is my last trump card. However, once I use it, I will have to pay a heavy price. To deal with you, I'm afraid sacrificing my life would be the least I can do. I might even lose my soul. You have shown me mercy several times. I don't want to go that far, but if you force me, I will have no choice."
In truth, he wasn't even sure if "Key Comes" could make his words come true against the being before him. She was simply too powerful; perhaps before she could even take effect, he would have already been destroyed.
But now he has no choice but to gamble.
"Are you threatening me?" Fireworks' face darkened, and the temperature in the room seemed to drop a few degrees.
"This isn't a threat, just advice from a former friend. Actually, I've figured it out now. Whether you escape or not is none of my business since you're sealed here. I'm not responsible for maintaining world peace, and besides, this isn't my world." Having spent time with her, Zu'an had figured out her temperament and knew she was more responsive to gentle persuasion than force, so he naturally wouldn't provoke her.
