It wasn't until the very last moment of midnight that a member of the Nirvana Merchant Guild, completely frozen solid, finally appeared, exhausted.
"President... in the center of the cave... Ahhh, hurry and save him..."
The ice on the woman's body gradually melted, and an inextinguishable blue flame suddenly ignited from her wet body.
The woman was engulfed in blue flames and immediately let out a painful scream.
Gu Mingyue stood to the side and saw that the blue flames initially started burning from the skin on the woman's shoulder.
After the ice melted, the fire ignited very quickly, eventually burning through the woman's bones.
A member of the Nirvana Merchant Guild, witnessing his companion's gruesome death, repeatedly manipulated water spheres in an attempt to extinguish the fire on the woman's body.
However, it was all in vain. This water-type ability user seemed to be a friend of the ice-type ability user.
Seeing that the woman was beyond saving, he still wanted to overdraw his supernatural powers to save her, and he couldn't even believe why the fire on the woman's body couldn't be extinguished.
He reached out his blue-glowing hand to grab the woman's burning body, intending to pour water into her mouth and nose, hoping to manipulate his powers to enter her body and extinguish the blue flames.
Gu Mingyue walked over and ended the woman's agonizing ordeal with a single curved blade. Then she ordered Xinghe to use a spatial shield to enclose the still-burning woman's corpse within the space.
Seeing his girlfriend's life ended by a golden scimitar, the man turned and glared menacingly at the two masked men and women walking towards him.
"Who told you to meddle in other people's business!"
The man screamed madly, "I'm going to save her! You killed her! I'll avenge her! Ahhh!"
He was about to rush forward and fight Gu Mingyue to the death.
“Your water won’t save this person; it will only worsen her suffering. I’m trying to help her end her pain as soon as possible.” Gu Mingyue calmly walked up to the Nirvana Chamber of Commerce members.
The woman's corpse, encased in the spatial shield of the Milky Way, had been burned away, leaving only a skeleton, yet the blue flames continued to burn.
"You're talking nonsense! She was an ice-type ability user, I mean a water-type ability user. If you hadn't killed her, how could she have died?"
The man's voice was hoarse, but looking at the burning skeleton encased in the spatial shield, he understood the special nature of the fire, yet he refused to accept the fact that his lover was dead.
At this moment, a man wearing a mask, but whose right half of his face was still exposed and whose gums were visible, also climbed up the crater of the White Jade Peak and slowly walked over.
When the man saw Gu Mingyue and the other woman, a glimmer of light flashed in his previously dejected eyes.
Gu Mingyue also recognized this person as Fang Kai, the captain of Triumph whom she had met in the Gold System Black Domain before.
Fang Kai didn't rush to reminisce. Seeing that the people from the Nirvana Chamber of Commerce were looking at Gu Mingyue and her companion with wary and hostile expressions, he spoke up to explain on her behalf.
“This woman is right. What you are seeing is the blue flame of the magma capital city in the Black Domain. Once it touches a person’s skin, it will leave a light blue mark.”
"If you find that the skin is turning blue, you can still save the person by immediately peeling off that layer of flesh. But once the blue flames have completely burned on the skin, even your supernatural powers will not be able to save her."
"At the same time, wherever this blue flame in the dark zone lands, it will burn until all the combustibles are completely burned off. Otherwise, wherever it lands, it will become a raging fire that cannot be extinguished."
After Fang Kai finished speaking, the woman's corpse, which had been enveloped by the Milky Way, had burned to ashes, even her bones. The pile of ashes grew smaller and smaller as it burned, until finally all the ashes were burned away, and the blue flames finally went out.
The water-based ability user, who had just wanted to kill Gu Mingyue to vent his anger, now collapsed to the ground, completely heartbroken.
He was both grieving the death of his girlfriend and filled with lingering fear.
He was afraid that if Gu Mingyue hadn't stopped him, he would have ended up like his girlfriend, burned to ashes.
Upon hearing Fang Kai's explanation, the other members of the Nirvana Chamber of Commerce quickly came over to thank Gu Mingyue for her help.
They didn't recognize Gu Mingyue and her companion, assuming they were permanent residents.
Gu Mingyue did not reveal her identity. After exchanging a few polite words, they parted ways.
Seeing that the people from the Nirvana Chamber of Commerce had left, Fang Kai walked over happily.
"Sister Gu, Brother Xinghe, we meet again."
"Thank you for rescuing me from the pile of corpses. For more than a year, I have been trying to find you to repay your life-saving grace, but I have always been trapped here for various reasons. I really feel bad about it."
Gu Mingyue waved her hand and said, "The crisis was over by then, and saving you was just a matter of lending a hand. Brother Fang, you don't need to worry about it."
"In the apocalypse, it's already commendable not to take advantage of others in their time of need, let alone lend a helping hand to save lives," Fang Kai remarked.
He then instructed the members of the Triumph Team behind him to set up tents on the spot and even set up a grill outside the tents.
He warmly invited the two to sit down, took out his treasured wine, and skinned a rabbit—the least aggressive animal in the apocalypse but hardest to catch—and placed it on the grill.
There were three roasted rabbits in total. Fang Kai handed the two fattest ones to Gu Mingyue and Xinghe, telling them not to be shy.
Gu Mingyue didn't rush to eat. After seeing Xinghe nod slightly after scanning and checking, she tore off a rabbit leg and ate it with her wine.
At the edge of the Dark Domain, many superhumans who missed the opening of the Dark Domain gradually gathered.
They all regretfully picked up their luggage and stayed put to rest around the Black Domain.
Not far away, Zou Shaoyun and others, wearing brown vests that revealed jackal tattoos, also climbed up.
Seeing Fang Kai eating roasted rabbit, she glared at him fiercely.
"You're lucky today. I'll definitely kill you when we enter the Black Domain tomorrow," Zou Shaoyun said angrily as he passed by Fang Kai.
