Chapter 31: Chapter 31 Wanyuan Fire Seed (2)_1

"Sister, look at that little strand of colored flame jumping in the center of the magma, that’s the Wanyuan Fire Seed. The Wanyuan Fire Seed, the mother of ten thousand fires. It can give birth to ten thousand kinds of flames. If I could swallow it, it would greatly benefit my cultivation, and I’d be able to use any flame. However, its temperature is quite high, so high that besides my Phoenix Golden Flame, not even a Golden Phoenix could tame it, let alone survive without being burned alive," Xiaohuo said proudly, "My ancestry has memories of it, and my ancestors encountered it before but didn’t swallow it. It just disappeared in the end. I never expected to find it here on the Xuanyue Continent, so I didn’t recognize it at first."

"Really? That’s great!" Knowing it was beneficial for Xiaohuo, Dugu Qianye was also very happy, "What are you going to do? Will it be dangerous?"

"I have to first tame it with the Phoenix Golden Flame, and then devour it. Don’t worry, it’s dangerous for others, but for me, it’s just a matter of time," Xiaohuo boasted and then started to tame the Wanyuan Fire Seed.

Dugu Qianye didn’t know how to help Xiaohuo, so she could only watch as Xiaohuo spat out a mouthful of golden flame, which seemed to be alive as it rushed towards the Wanyuan Fire Seed. As soon as the golden flame appeared, the flames below wilted. Had it not been for the Wanyuan Fire Seed, they would have been extinguished long ago.

The Phoenix Golden Flame slowly enveloped the Wanyuan Fire Seed. The fire seed tried to resist, but in the end, it was completely wrapped by the Phoenix Golden Flame. The Phoenix Golden Flame kept tempering the fire seed, competing in endurance until finally, the Wanyuan Fire Seed capitulated, submitting to the tyranny of the Phoenix Golden Flame.

Xiaohuo slowly swallowed the golden fire that wrapped around the Wanyuan Fire Seed and then flew to the ground as fast as possible.

Without the Wanyuan Fire Seed, the temperature on the ground dropped significantly.

Putting Dugu Qianye on the ground, Xiaohuo said, "Sister, I will go into the Refining Demon Pot to assimilate the fire seed, and I will fall into a slumber for some time. When I come out next time, I will be able to help you with alchemy."

Dugu Qianye nodded and with a thought, she stored Xiaohuo into the Refining Demon Pot. Then she summoned Xiaoyin, mounted it, and started heading back to camp.

By the time she returned to the camp, it was nearly dawn the next day.

"Young Master Baili," the night watch greeted her respectfully after seeing her. Now, Dugu Qianye was their lifesaver, with formidable strength, and in this world, those with power were highly respected.

"People get tired easily in the middle of the night. You need to hold on, and be aware of your surroundings," Dugu Qianye advised them with a smile.

"We will," the two replied energetically.

Dugu Qianye nodded and headed towards her tent, only to hear voices coming from inside.

"Where could she have gone? It’s so late, and she still isn’t back. Could something have happened?" Meng Sanniang’s voice came out.

"It shouldn’t. She’s not weak, and she has a divine beast with her," Uncle Hong consoled.

"But she’s so young, I can’t help worrying. Should we go look for her?" Meng Sanniang suggested.

Hearing this, Dugu Qianye slightly smiled, lifted the curtain, and walked in. Seeing Dugu Qianye enter, the anxious expression on Meng Sanniang’s face relaxed.

"Why haven’t you rested?" Dugu Qianye asked.

"We came last night to discuss the matter about the phantom beast’s corpse with you, but seeing you weren’t here, we waited. And we ended up waiting all night. But thankfully, you’re back safe and sound," Meng Sanniang said. Noticing the old man’s absence, she asked, "Where’s your cheap grandpa?"

"He had to leave early. I went to see him off, and on my way back I encountered some issues, which delayed me. As for those carcasses, you can sell them at a collection shop in Feier City; consider it my way of repaying everyone for their care these past few days," Dugu Qianye said.

Over a hundred phantom beasts, the mere skins and bones represented a significant income, not to mention the demon crystals inside. Meng Sanniang and the others were all long-term mercenaries at the Mercenary Guild, not in great financial shape, and snagging a single holy beast was deemed a big haul. The corpses of these phantom beasts were clearly much more useful to them.

Seeing that they wanted to refuse, Dugu Qianye said, "We’re all from mercenary backgrounds, why act coy like a shy bride? It’s settled then. By the way, how are your injuries?"

"We’re okay, just suffered some superficial wounds and have taken recovery pills. However, Wei Dong and Ziren were more seriously injured because they protected Wei Lin and Bei Feng. The recovery pills didn’t do much for their injuries, so they are resting in the tent right now," Meng Sanniang said with a hint of sadness.

"Don’t you have any other elixirs?" Dugu Qianye asked.

Meng Sanniang and Uncle Hong both showed signs of embarrassment when Dugu Qianye asked. Meng Sanniang said, "Our talents aren’t very good, so we spent most of our earnings on elixirs to aid our cultivation. We only bought enough recovery pills for injuries."

No wonder they weren’t very old, yet all were Great Phantom Masters.

"I have some elixirs here. Let’s go see them," Dugu Qianye said.

To make it easier to take care of them, everyone had placed Wei Dong and Ziren in the same tent. When Dugu Qianye and her group arrived, the two of them were resting, their brows furrowed tightly. Wei Lin and Bei Feng were looking after them.

Dugu Qianye walked over, took their hands, and transmitted phantom power into their bodies to sense their injuries. After a while, she withdrew her hands and said, "The recovery pills have healed their external wounds, but their phantom power is depleted, and their internal organs are quite seriously injured."

Wei Lin and Bei Feng nearly burst into tears when they heard Dugu Qianye say this.

Dugu Qianye handed a bottle of Sacred Rhinoceros Pill to Wei Lin and said, "This is the Sacred Rhinoceros Pill, which is quite effective in treating internal injuries. Give it to them."

"Sacred Rhinoceros Pill?!" everyone exclaimed in surprise. This elixir was not high-grade, but it was a healing holy item that was priceless!

Meng Sanniang was the first to react, she instructed Wei Lin to go feed Wei Dong and Ziren the pills.

After taking the Sacred Rhinoceros Pills, Wei Dong and Ziren’s condition improved rapidly. Their originally pale faces gradually became rosy, and their bodies visibly recovered.

"My goodness, the healing speed is astonishing!" Meng Sanniang and the others exclaimed in amazement. Indeed, the Sacred Rhinoceros Pill was a holy healing medicine!

"Alright, I’m going back now. You should also rest for a while. We still need to set off at dawn," Dugu Qianye said after seeing that the two were improving and told everyone to rest. After a great battle during the day, every person was extremely tired.

Meng Sanniang approached Dugu Qianye, patted her on the shoulder, and said, "Traveling with you is the luckiest part of this mission. If you need anything in the future, just say the word, and I, Sanniang, will not hesitate to wade through hot water and leap through flames for you."

Dugu Qianye, looking into Sanniang’s slightly moist eyes, said, "You’ve been good to me, which is why I help you. If you’re moved, how about pledging yourself to me in return?" Only if you are sincere to me will I repay you with true affection.
