257. Chapter 257 Xiao Chen: Does my Xiao Clan still have descendants?
Outside the Demon Fire Space, the distorted space in the sky had already dissipated.
The terrifying high temperature that had originally shrouded this world also gradually weakened, and the magma desert below stopped churning, gradually solidifying into chunks of white rock.
In the surrounding sky, figures stood suspended in the air, their eyes filled with unwillingness.
After the Space Channel dissipated, they lost their connection to that space.
"This time, it was truly a narrow escape!"
"It is a pity that Elders Hun Mo and Hun Ji were buried in the Demon Fire Space just like that!"
"Let's go..."
After lingering for a while, Hun Miesheng suddenly felt Zi Yan's gaze, so he took Hun Feng and the other person and left without hesitation.
He dared not gamble on whether this fiend Zi Yan would strike again and kill them all.
And this trip for the Demon Fire had truly forged Zi Yan's reputation, allowing the world to once again witness the demeanor of the Void Ancient Dragon clan.
"Miss Zi Yan, what exactly did the Young Clan Leader tell you before? Could you elaborate, so as to spare this old man from worrying..."
Gu Nanhai's gaze was filled with anxiety.
The energy inside the Demon Fire Space was violent; even a Five-Star Dou Sheng could not survive there.
If something happened to Gu Fei inside, he, Gu Nanhai, would have no face to return and report to the clansmen.
"Sister Zi Yan, please tell us a bit more. I am truly worried about Brother Gu Fei!"
Xun Er's eyes were moist, and she also looked at Zi Yan with great anxiety, asking.
"Brother Gu Fei only said that he would not be in danger; he did not say much else!"
Zi Yan shook her head, not bothering to quibble over this form of address Xun Er used for her.
"The Demon Fire is so powerful, how can Brother Gu Fei be so certain that he will be fine?"
Hearing Zi Yan's explanation, Xun Er remained very uneasy.
"I, for one, believe that Young Friend Gu Fei will not meet with any mishap. The feeling he gives me is one of extreme composure..."
The taciturn Xiao Chen suddenly spoke up; he thought highly of Gu Fei.
There are not many such outstanding young people in the world.
"But..."
"Stop worrying blindly. Do you wish for Brother Gu Fei to meet with a mishap?"
Zi Yan could not stand Xun Er, immediately interrupting her words, and added: "He has the Dragon Seal I left on him; whether he is in trouble or not, I know very well..."
Hearing this, Xun Er quieted down.
"You few, do you know if there are any descendants of the Xiao Clan remaining today?"
Xiao Chen asked very sincerely.
"The Xiao Clan..."
Hearing this, both Xun Er and Gu Nanhai were somewhat hesitant.
"Xiao Chen, the Xiao Clan has lost all its Dou Di bloodline and only one branch remains. If you go to a place called Wutan City in the Jia Ma Empire on the Northwest Continent, you will naturally know..."
Gu Nanhai spoke slowly.
"Many thanks for the information!"
Xiao Chen did not waste words; upon learning this news, he immediately set off to leave.
"Miss Zi Yan, please wait here for a moment. This old man needs to return to the clan to report the matters here to the clan elders..."
After Xiao Chen left, Gu Nanhai also bid farewell, but when he intended to take Xun Er away, she was unwilling to leave.
"Elder Nanhai, you should go back first. I want to wait here for Brother Gu Fei to come out..." Xun Er said with a firm tone.
"Miss, stop being unreasonable. It is enough to have Miss Zi Yan watching here; what can you do by staying?" Gu Nanhai's tone was clearly impatient, as Xun Er had repeatedly refused to listen to advice during this period.
"Did you hear that? Staying here will only cause trouble!" Zi Yan did not give Xun Er any face either, mocking her aloud.
"Miss, if you insist on not leaving, then this old man will have to forcibly take you away!" Gu Nanhai's tone grew heavier.
"Fine, I will go..."
Xun Er replied dejectedly.
At this moment, her state was very poor.
She felt that no matter what she did, it seemed she would be disliked by others. Even though her starting point was good, it always ended up like this.
Inside the Demon Fire Space.
Gu Fei had retreated far away when the great explosion occurred at the center. At this moment, he looked at the empty world; both the Jinglian Yaosheng and the Purifying Demonic Lotus Flame had lost all traces.
However, Gu Fei was not worried.
He knew that the Jinglian Yaosheng's goal was only to take away the Demon Fire's current intelligence and memories.
It would not truly make the Demon Fire disappear.
"It is a pity that such a top-tier powerhouse, who originally had the hope of reaching the Dou Di realm, was hindered by the lack of Source Qi in the world..."
Gu Fei sighed in his heart, then his figure flashed, and he arrived at the previous center of the explosion.
He looked downward.
On that boundless sea of magma, a white lotus covered with pink veins throughout its body was slowly drifting.
And as it drifted, it seemed as if the energy of the entire sea was surging toward it incessantly.
"Demon Fire Origin!"
Looking at the milky-white lotus with a faint pink color, a satisfied smile appeared on Gu Fei's face. If he could refine this thing, his strength would rise to another level.
The next moment, he slowly descended, only stopping when he was several feet away from the milky-white and pink-alternating fire lotus.
The Purifying Demonic Lotus Flame now was undoubtedly a completely different manifestation compared to before.
The former was violent by nature.
The latter, however, was quiet and peaceful.
The Purifying Demonic Lotus Flame did not launch an attack on Gu Fei just because he approached.
The Demon Fire now was as pure as when it had first appeared between heaven and earth, without the slightest bit of artificial influence or contamination.
"With my current strength, plus the preparations I made earlier, refining the Demon Fire should not be a problem..."
Gu Fei made his plans in his heart.
He then took out some materials and set up a grand array in this place; when the array was completed, countless cold currents descended from the sky, condensing into a layer of frost on the surface of the Demon Fire.
Subsequently, Gu Fei took a Pill out from his Storage Ring; the moment this Pill appeared, bone-chilling cold mist surged all around.
This Pill was naturally the Nine Yin Yellow Spring Pill that Gu Fei had prepared for this refinement!
With a flick of his finger, the Nine Yin Yellow Spring Pill flew out, and upon making contact with the Purifying Demonic Lotus Flame, it rapidly melted.
Immediately, layers of ice continuously appeared on the surface of the Demon Fire.
However, these layers of ice would be evaporated by that terrifying high temperature as soon as they appeared.
Therefore, accompanied by the coming and going of this ice, wisps of white mist emitting hissing sounds also rose continuously from the body of the Purifying Demonic Lotus Flame.
"Hoo..."
In the sky, Gu Fei exhaled a deep breath, then his figure flashed and he appeared before the Purifying Demonic Lotus Flame.
At this moment, the lotus petals all over the Demon Fire had already unfurled, and at the heart of the flower, a cluster of pink flame was coiled like an infant.
Waves of high temperature that made one's soul tremble radiated from this cluster of pink flame.
Gu Fei stared at this cluster of pink flame with a burning gaze.
This was the true Demon Fire Origin! (End of this chapter)
