“Abnormal Fire? Of course, I do!” Lou Qianxue’s eyes glowed. “Abnormal Fire is a strange fire born between heaven and earth. According to rumors, it can burn all things. It’s also used to refine alchemy weapons, and it’s twice as effective at half the efforts. This fire is the dream of all alchemists and refiners in the world. However…”

Lou Qianxue continued after a pause, “It’s just that the trail of ‘Abnormal Fire’ is elusive and hard to grasp. It’s very powerful and terrifying. One can only subdue it if one is invincible!”

Gong Sunheng nodded. “Indeed. So, is Miss Lou willing to meet the fifth abnormal fire, the Phantom Demon Heart Fire, with me?”

Lou Qianxue was shocked. “Do you know where the Phantom Demon Heart Fire is?”

Gong Sunheng poured a cup of tea and pushed it to her. “Don’t be nervous. Taste this tea first.”

Lou Qianxue calmed down and sipped on the aromatic tea. She slowly appreciated it.

“How is it?”

“Astringent at the beginning, but when it reaches the tip of the tongue, the scent grows stronger, and the tea tastes gradually mellower. In the end, it’s more scented on the lips and teeth. Not bad, good tea!”

Being praised, Gong Sunheng smiled and answered her previous question. “Yes, I do know where the ‘Phantom Demon Heart Fire’ is. What about it? Are you interested?”

Lou Qianxue narrowed her eyes.

Abnormal Fire.

Countless alchemists and refiners were eager to gain this holy item.

Of course, she wanted it too.

But…

“As the president, if you released the news of the Abnormal Fire, many people would’ve been willing to help you. Why did you choose me then, President Gong?”

“Because other than you, no one can help me.”

“Why?”

“The ‘Phantom Demon Heart Fire’ is still in a sealed state. Once it’s completely unsealed, let alone you and me, no one in the entire Tian Zhao Dynasty or the entire Eastern Region can go near it.”

Gong Sunheng’s eyes sparkled. “So, we must seize the opportunity to take action and absorb it when the seal begins to loosen, but yet to completely unseal. Also, I have tried it myself. Only those in the Spirit Martial realm can enter it.”

Then, he bitterly shook his head. “But the ‘Phantom Demon Heart Fire’ is too powerful, and an ordinary Spirit Martial realm practitioner can’t handle it. You’re the most powerful person in the Spirit Martial realm that I have encountered!”

“Only those in the Spirit Martial Realm can enter?” Lou Qianxue looked at him with a weird expression. “So you can’t enter? Could it be that you intend to give me the ‘Phantom Demon Heart Fire’?”

“Of course not.” Gong Sunheng smiled. “I have been dormant in Qingyun City for the ‘Phantom Demon Heart Fire’ for many years. How can I give up? Moreover, the power of the Abnormal Fire is so great, I don’t dare to conquer it. In my opinion, it’s already a great benefit if we can both absorb one percent of it.”

Lou Qianxue understood his implied meaning. “Are you saying that the Phantom Demon Heart Fire is in Qingyun City?”

“Correct! It’s right in the Qingyun Mountain.”

It’s actually in the Qingyun Mountain!

No wonder that Gong Sunheng, a genius alchemist, would come to such a small place as Qingyun City and stay here for several years…

Only

“Since you can enter on your own, why did you still look for me?”

“I’m a little tired from keeping this secret on my own. I looked for you because I wanted to share the burden and have someone to handle it as well. More importantly, I’m afraid that I won’t come back if I go. So I was also looking for a successor in a sense. Don’t worry, I will protect you when the time comes.”

“Looking for a successor?” Lou Qianxue’s eyes fluttered. “Is that why you insisted I come back to fulfill our promise after refining the flame core? Unfortunately for you, I won’t recognize you as my master.

“Moreover, one more thing is that only by refining a flame core of fire item, you can absorb the Abnormal Fire.

“Are you still willing to share the Phantom Demon Heart Fire with me if I refuse to be your successor?”

Gong Sunheng nodded.

“Great, then I agree. When shall we do it?” Abnormal Fire was such a godly and rare object. Only a fool would choose not to go!
