Chapter 1213

Zhao Chi laughed and said, "I improved a gene for you. From now on your Sea of Fire technique can be used more freely. Since you're here, you can try breathing fire directly."

Zhuang Ya nodded. "Alright, hold out your hand."

Zhao Chi instinctively held out his hand.

But he quickly pulled it back.

"This gene was improved for you lot—I didn't improve mine. I still fear fire. Zhuang Ya, you must remember that well."

"Oh… right!" Zhuang Ya started, then said apologetically, "Sorry, I almost burned you."

Zhao Chi shook his head. "It's fine, just be careful."

Zhao Chi now had an enormous amount of health.

Even if Zhuang Ya really did burn him, it would be fine.

But such matters still required constant vigilance.

No matter—at the very beginning, Zhao Chi and Gu Qing and the others would sometimes forget too.

A couple more reminders to Zhuang Ya, and she'd remember it well.

"I'll do it."

Qi Yue ran over lightly.

Zhuang Ya nodded. "Alright, Qi Yue has no problem. Hold out your hand."

Qi Yue held out her small, snow-white hand.

"Wait a moment." Zhao Chi called the two of them to a halt.

Both women looked at him curiously.

Zhao Chi said, "Zhuang Ya, grab someone over here—preferably a human. Burn two people at once, so we have a comparison."

Zhuang Ya nodded. "Right, that way there's a contrast, more obvious. Wait for me."

Very soon.

Zhuang Ya came running, dragging a captive by the collar.

That captive had been transported over from Su Qin's side; his hands and feet were bound with hemp rope, yet his face was full of defiance.

Zhuang Ya hauled him along by his feet the whole way.

Then she stepped on him with one foot and yanked up his hand.
