Yunxi stared coldly at Crown Prince Nanshan in silence . Crown Prince Nanshan was itching to roar with laughter . This woman had character . He really liked this . However, no matter how much he liked her, he wouldn't fall head over heels for her charm like a brainless fellow and treat her like a goddess . He wanted to use his ability to thoroughly subdue her . That would be the most meaningful way to act .
How could she remain calm before such benefits? Crown Prince Nanshan firmly believed that he'd feel the same way about the pill furnace under the circumstances .
Yunxi, who was standing aside, didn't share his feelings . When she saw Crown Prince Nanshan's pleased expression, she itched to hit that smug face of his .
That piece of trash!
If her own father hadn't been…
As she thought of this, Yunxi's heart did not waver . She had to do well and stand at the peak of the world .
However, her determination and the scene before her made her feel a deep sense of helplessness . She wanted to do this, but she lacked the power .
"Have you seen Luo Yunyang?" Yunxi asked everyone after hesitating for a bit .
The Ice Fire Divine Sparrow shook his head . He now understood the relationship between Yunxi, Crown Prince Nanshan and the others . Voluntarily asking them to do something under the circumstances was akin to being hit while one was down .
"Why are you asking about that demi-human, cousin? Ha ha… I can guarantee you that we definitely haven't done anything to him!" Crown Prince Nanshan replied first with a chuckle .
Yuan Geng smiled disdainfully . "Even if I wanted to do something, I wouldn't vent on that sort of person . You can rest easy, Miss Yunxi . "
"My subordinates and I haven't seen him," Li Qingyun answered gently .
Although Crown Prince Nanshan's words weren't pleasant, Yunxi felt a little more relieved . As long as these people didn't try anything on Luo Yunyang, the probability of him being alive would be much greater .
Where exactly had he gone to, though? As Yunxi mulled this over, she heard Crown Prince Nanshan chuckle . "Could you perhaps not have everything required to ignite the pill furnace, cousin? In that case, as your elder brother, I can no longer allow you to use it!"
Crown Prince Nanshan took out a jade gourd and said, "There are 100 types of flames in here . "
As he spoke, he strode past Yunxi and reached the last pill furnace .
While Yunxi watched Crown Prince Nanshan move the flames, she imagined a scenario in which Luo Yunyang appeared . How great would it be if Luo Yunyang appeared now and she had enough flames in her possession…
BOOM!
The last pill furnace exploded and a black tortoise spiraled loftily within the scarlet glow . Judging by its power, the last pill furnace seemed to be even stronger than Li Qingyun's pill furnace .
"Ha ha! Thank you for letting me win, cousin!" A flash of delight flickered through Crown Prince Nanshan's mind . He had clearly gotten what he wanted after igniting the pill furnace .
As he was feeling pleased with himself, a loud splitting sound rang out and a piercing voice shouted, "Leave the pill furnace behind!"
Suddenly, a tall young man came rushing over . There were three more people behind him, holding a gourd that contained flames .
Although his shout was resounding, all he saw was Crown Prince Nanshan, Yuan Geng and the others each holding onto a furnace only the size of a palm .
"You've come too late, Zheng Feng!" Crown Prince Nanshan said as he eyed the tall young man with a pleased expression .
They were competitors in a battle, so he would naturally benefit from the fact that his competitor was late . Zheng Feng snorted coldly . Although he didn't say anything, he clearly seemed indignant .
However, the young man eventually didn't make a move . He just eyed Yunxi and shook his head softly .
Yunxi had been destined to fail in gathering divine flames . However, she hadn't expected that he would fail as well .
She could only say that she had been a step too late .
"If my theory is right, the two of you can only stay here . Although we have more or less obtained all the benefits available, you don't have to get disheartened," said Crown Prince Nanshan . "Perhaps you might get some other opportunities . "
Zheng Feng clenched his fists tightly when he heard Crown Prince Nanshan's words . Although he didn't say anything, he would keep this grudge in his heart .
Yunxi thought for a bit before asking Zheng Feng, "Have you seen Luo Yunyang?"
Zheng Feng wasn't in a good mood . "I have not seen the demi-human . However, I reckon that collecting flames is very dangerous . You can see for yourself that quite a number of our followers have fallen . Perhaps that demi-human has also…"
When he was halfway through, Zheng Feng's eyes widened . He had suddenly seen a figure flying over from a distance .
When Yunxi saw that flying figure, she was pleasantly surprised . She rushed over impatiently before Luo Yunyang could even land .
"Why… Why did it take you so long to return?"
Yunxi's tone was slightly coquettish . When Zheng Feng, Crown Prince Nanshan and the others heard her grumbling question, they thought she seemed like a spoiled young girl talking to her lover .
A wave of deep jealousy welled in Crown Prince Nanshan's heart while a faint trace of killing intent was evident on his face . Although it was already foreordained that he wouldn't make Yunxi his first wife, he had reserved a spot for her among his secondary wives .
He had never imagined that Yunxi would turn a blind eye to his devotion and give her heart to a demi-human . How could she speak this way?
No matter how magnanimous he was, he definitely wouldn't allow this fellow to make a cuckold out of him and live to tell the tale!
Yunxi's coquettish behavior made Luo Yunyang, who hadn't yet experienced romance, feel a strange yet warm feeling in his heart . Although this situation was totally unexpected, he didn't object to it .
"I'm here! I was held up by something, but all is well now," Luo Yunyang said a little nervously as he rubbed his nose unconsciously .
That's right, he was currently a little nervous .
Meanwhile, Yunxi was all smiles . "It's all good, You are here now," she said with a gentle voice .
Li Qingyun felt confused as she watched the scene . "That's right, as long as you have love, you will never go hungry," she said mockingly . "Seems like the two of you don't have to follow us anymore!"
Luo Yunyang and Yunxi, who were having a hazy, warm moment, felt a little embarrassed when they heard Li Qingyun's words .
Her words seemed to strike Yunxi's heart . She immediately shot Luo Yunyang a panicked glance and lowered her head silently .
"Didn't you go collect divine flames, Luo Yunyang? Tell me how many types you got . I always mean what I say . As long as you collected more than 100 types of flames, I will give you a chance . "
Crown Prince Nanshan had a slightly gloomy look on his face . He couldn't stand being jealous, so he pretended to be magnanimous .
Although he didn't know how many types of flames Luo Yunyang had with him, he knew that he couldn't have collected 100 types .
Even when they were added to the ones Yunxi had, he still wouldn't have 100 .
After all, they had spent a lot of effort to collect 100 types of flames . If the spirit flames guarding the divine flames hadn't suddenly become weaker, they would have needed much more time to collect their own 100 .
When Luo Yunyang glanced at Crown Prince Nanshan, who was feigning magnanimity, he shook his head silently . He didn't have any divine flames in his hands .
He didn't know what to call the flame assimilated with his body either . He only had one type, and the difference between one and 100 was too big .
As Luo Yunyang was thinking, he suddenly felt the flames within the four pill furnaces rushing towards him .
He could actually control these flames! When he felt this, Luo Yunyang immediately guessed what was up .
He stared at Crown Prince Nanshan as he said calmly, "Although I haven't gathered 100 types of flames, your flames won't do either . Oh, I can see that everyone's refining techniques are facing some rather significant problems . Be careful so you don't burn your fingers!"
A slightly stunned look appeared on Crown Prince Nanshan's face when he heard this . However, his shock quickly turned to delight .
This demi-human was too damned shallow . Who was he to say that there was a problem with everyone's refining techniques? Ha ha ha! This time, he deserved to be humiliated . Yunxi would watch him disgrace himself!
Crown Prince Nanshan, who felt even more delighted when he thought about this, smiled at Yunxi . "I believe that you have seen the weapon-refining techniques handed down my family, cousin . This demi-human is a big talker . Don't you think this is laughable? How could my techniques be problematic? Ha ha ha!"
As Li Qingyun laughed faintly, a faint disdain appeared in her eyes . Although she had to admit that Luo Yunyang wasn't simple, his reaction could only be described in one word .
Shallow!
He was very superficial indeed . Even though he was holding a grudge against Xie Nanshan, he couldn't stifle him or come up with such an absurd verdict .
He had spoken without thinking, so he would be the one to lose . However, this would only make others think that he was even more shallow than Xie Nanshan .
Yunxi could only shake her head lightly and give Luo Yunyang a considerate smile silently .
When he saw Yunxi shake her head, Luo Yunyang didn't say anything else . All he did was smile at her confidently .
Crown Prince Nanshan felt like exploding when he saw the two of them shooting glances at each other . As he stared viciously at Luo Yunyang, it seemed as though he was itching to rip him to shreds .
"I advise you to hurry up and toss that pill furnace, Crown Prince . I sense that it is very unstable right now . Something might really happen if you hold on to it!" Luo Yunyang said confidently .
Crown Prince Nanshan felt like cursing 1,000 times . He was just fine! How dare he say this? He was just a sour grape!
Although his heart was full of hate, he still did his utmost to maintain a graceful air . He believed that this was the only way to nullify Luo Yunyang's attack .
"He he… Thank you for your kind warning, but there is nothing wrong with my methods . I'm afraid that you are worrying for no reason!" Crown Prince Nanshan said confidently . "Even if there is a problem, I will still not toss the pill furnace . I believe that I will be able to deal with whatever happens . "
