Chapter 344: Powerful Demon Race
trouble.""Haha!" Jiang Wànlǐ laughed heartily. "It's great that you understand this!"A hush fell over the room, and Jiang Wanli continued, "When are you planning to leave"The topic of parting once aga..."This is..."
Being enveloped by the flames of Jiangyun's transformation, he had already ignited the fireseed in his hand into the Huoyanghui within Jiangyun's body. Suddenly, a sound like a dream murmur emerged.
Because he simply couldn't believe, at this moment in time, what his own eyes were seeing!
Inside Gingercloud's body, a flower of flames bloomed!
Although this flame flower only has two petals, as a fire demon and the master of demons, Huoyang Hui can be absolutely certain that it is the firework of his own race!
It is beyond comprehension that a human cultivator would possess the innate talents peculiar to demonic beasts, even if those talents were incomplete. This fact alone rendered it utterly unacceptable.
And the fire he had intended to plant in Ginger Cloud's heart was, because of this flower of flames, barred from entering.
Because of the spark, it has no effect on the Fire Clan alone.
Just as the sun's rays shocked him, a voice suddenly rang in his ears. It was Jiang Yun: "Now, shouldn't you be keeping your promise"
"Bet"
Hearing this, Huoyang Hui suddenly came to his senses.
Finally, I realized the strange power within my surroundings, or rather, within Jiang Yun's life fire. It was slowly consuming me.
Although I can temporarily withstand this force, I cannot hold out for too long.
After going through so many things, Huoyang Hui also knew in his heart that his life fire would eventually be swallowed by Jiang Yun's destiny!
Even speaking of it, the reason why I ended up in this situation is because I accommodated Jiang Yun.
If he hadn't proactively given those thousands of humanoid fire spirits to Jiang Yun before, then based on Jiang Yun's initial fire spirit alone, it wouldn't have been able to consume him.
But now saying these things holds no meaning anymore. Being able to become the master of a sect, Huoyang Hui is also capable of taking it and letting it go.
Now that things have come to this, it's better to be decisive and stop struggling in vain. After all, losing a spark of life won't cause me too much harm.
Thinking of this, Huoyang Hui coldly smiled and said, “I admit defeat, I naturally pay up!”
"Now, I'm going to tell you the news that concerns you deeply, but you remain unaware of it."
Jiang Yun didn't answer, only continuing to accelerate the devouring of Huoyang Hui's life fire while silently listening.
More than three years ago, all the demon clans above the Cave Heaven realm on Wushan Island, including me and Jin Yifei, almost all received a message from a mysterious powerful demon clan, along with a portrait of a human.
"The message content means that if we meet the people in the painting, we must take all means to care for and protect them, and they will be rewarded greatly in the future!"
Although Huoyang Hui hadn't finished speaking, Ginger Cloud's heart fluttered slightly: "Could it be that the person in this painting is me"
As expected, Huo Yanghui continued, “This portrait is of you! Jiang Yun, you don’t know this, but there has always been a mysterious demon expert secretly protecting you!”
Indeed, Ginger Cloud had never heard of it, nor had she ever thought that someone would secretly be protecting you.
But in his heart, he already had a guess about the identity of this mysterious demon expert.
Grandpa!
Grandpa is a member of the demon race and also a renowned demon, so he must not feel comfortable being alone outside. That's why he used magic to inform all the powerful demons on Wushan Island to protect him.
"Is this all you have to tell me"
For Jiang Yun's calm reaction, Huo Yanghui smiled slightly: "It seems that although you don't know that a demon clan is protecting you, it's not difficult to guess the identity of this demon."
Ginger Cloud restored silence, and ignored Fire Sunbeam.
And Huoyang Hui continued, "Don't you find it strange that I would tell you this news"
Although Ginger Cloud was indeed a little strange, he still didn't open his mouth.
"I'm just here to remind you, your relationship with our demon clan is far closer than you realize."
You may not understand my meaning now, but let me remind you that the Great Calamity of Mountains and Seas will be upon us soon.
"And at that time, in order to fight for survival space, the human race and the demon race would inevitably have a final battle."
At this point, Huo Yang Hui's form was nearly completely gone. With a sinister smile, he said, "Well, I hope you can return safely from the mirage, because I very much look forward to seeing you again!"
As his voice faded, his body was finally completely consumed by Jiang Yun.
Although Gingercloud remained silent, digesting Huoyanghui's life fire at the fastest speed possible, his mind was replaying Huoyanghui's last words.
He already understood that Huoyang Hui told himself the true reason for all this.
That is to wait until the final war between humans and demons arrives, then one must decide on which side to stand!
……
In the depths of the Wan Yao Ku, Huo Yang Hui's true form opened its eyes once more, its face as dark and deep as water.
He never expected that his own spark of life would be devoured by Jiang Yun!
The loss of a spark of life held no real detriment for him, it was merely a matter of face. Fortunately, this incident would remain a secret known only to him and Ginger Cloud.
So, he wasn't too angry.
Moreover, through his fight with Jiang Yun, he discovered many secrets about Jiang Yun.
Originally, he thought he knew everything about Ginger Cloud, but only now did he realize that he actually understood nothing about her.
Jiang Yun's body was filled with too many secrets, and every secret once revealed would cause a sensation throughout the entire Shanhai Realm.
After much contemplation, Huoyang Hui finally calmed down and said with a cold smile: "Jiang Yun, I'm becoming more and more interested in you, the 100,000 Mangshan Mountains that raised you for eighteen years, and that powerful demon clan member!"
After he finished speaking, Huoyang Hui closed his eyes again.
……
Bai Ze has been waiting anxiously, though he has confidence in Jiang Yun. However, confidence doesn't equal strength; after all, Jiang Yun is facing the life fire of a Fire Demon.
At last, Jiang Yun's body, which had always been seated cross-legged, trembled slightly and slowly opened his eyes.
Just as he opened his eyes, sparks flickered in them.
"Did it work"
Jiang Yun lightly nodded, but there was no joy on his face.
Bai Ze ignored all of that, excitedly shouting: “Good job, boy! I knew you could do it. How are you feeling now”
Jiang Yun raised his head and looked at the Heavenly Refining Furnace suspended above his head. He didn't speak, but a raging fire suddenly erupted from his body, completely enveloping him.
But the flames held no warmth, instead bestowing upon Gingercloud within them an air of mystery and solemnity.
Especially for Bai Ze, he could clearly feel that Jiang Yun's vitality was gradually weakening under the enveloping flames.
Meanwhile, within Jiang Yun's body, his life fire was gradually shrinking and weakening.
Until only a tiny, insignificant ember remained, seeming to flicker and die at any moment.
Correspondingly, Jiang Yun's vitality was also almost imperceptible.
His face, his eyes, were all filled with a deathly pallor, as if he were on the verge of death.
Bai Ze's heart was already in his throat at this moment, afraid that Jiang Yun would really just die like this.
Luckily, a loud bang echoed from within Ginger Cloud's body.
His dying embers flared suddenly and brightly.
In an instant, he transformed into a fire dragon, surging out from the top of his head and charging straight towards the Refining Heaven Furnace.
First published on the Traditional Chinese Novel Networkius, it is still located within the demonic Azure Heaven. However, the surrounding blackness is like an impenetrable solid wall, preventing any demonic energy from the outside world from entering this...
