It was because Shui Qinan's gaze made the Flaming Cloud Beast feel uncomfortable. It looked at Shui Qinan and unceremoniously attacked him. Shui Qinan felt a wave of pressure pressing on her face, making her unable to breathe.

"Damn it!" Shui Qinan secretly said, in this lifetime, it was extremely rare for people to not be able to retaliate at all, and this made Shui Qinan feel that it was very defeated. Furthermore, the Flaming Cloud Beast was very powerful, upon seeing it, Nangong Chu wanted to help Shui Qinan, but he only saw the Flaming Cloud Beast was fierce and ferocious, and he did not know why it was staring straight at him, its scales shining coldly at the bottom of the sea.

But Shui Qinan was not an easy target, since the Flaming Cloud Beast was already staring at her, then she might as well take the initiative and attack! A red whip appeared in Shui Qinan's hand, she tempered her fire energy and lashed at the Flaming Cloud Beast. The Flaming Cloud Beast seemed to be infuriated, a small human actually dared to provoke it! It finally spewed out a raging flame. Nangong Chu saw that Shui Qinan and the Flaming Cloud Beast were engaged in an intense battle, as though they had formed their own world and a sea of flames was spreading endlessly.

However, Shui Qinan did not take long before she began to gradually feel the strain, and Nangong Chu also noticed Shui Qinan's strange behavior. He glanced at the Flaming Cloud Beast that was currently focused on Shui Qinan, and carefully approached the flame that the Flaming Cloud Beast was guarding. This was a very good time, and if he missed it, it would be gone. If this first fire between heaven and earth could allow Shui Qinan to temper her body into a fire source, then Shui Qinan's combat strength would increase by a lot.

The Flaming Cloud Beast spat out a mouthful of flames. In the underwater area, the aura of the flames did not decrease by even a bit, instead, it became even more ferocious, whereas Shui Qinan did not.

Nangong Chu got closer and closer to the flame, closer and closer. Just when Nangong Chu was a step away from the flame, the Flaming Cloud Beast actually detected something.

"Roar!" "Roar!" The Flaming Cloud Beast angrily roared. This group of shameless humans actually wanted to watch the Heavenly Flame for so many years! The Flaming Cloud Beast also no longer bothered with Shui Qinan, but went back to wandering around beside the flame. Its two lantern-like eyes glanced at Nangong Chu from time to time, but it did not even look at him.

Because in the eyes of the Flaming Cloud Beast, Shui Qinan was too small, and the man beside her was even more dangerous.

Being ignored in such a way, Shui Qinan's heart was filled with resentment, but even more so, it was a type of sorrow. She was originally a demoness that caused the clouds in the demonic world to tremble. With a stomp of her feet, the demonic world was about to tremble. But now …

Shui Qinan's eyes darkened. She had shaken off these thoughts and accepted reality, because she was no longer the witch of yesteryear.

Nangong Chu went back to Shui Qinan's side and whispered to him: "What do we do now, this Flaming Cloud Beast is so smart."

"Why is it guarding the 'Heavenly Flame'? Or is it at the bottom of the sea? It should not be living in the sea." Shui Qinan did not answer Nangong Chu's question because she discovered a suspicion. According to the ancient books, the Flaming Cloud Beast was the king of the forest. This was because Flaming Cloud Beast was extremely tyrannical and did not like other creatures appearing on their territory. If there were intruders, they must be chased out of this place. And most importantly, the Flaming Cloud Beast did not like water.

Shui Qinan frowned even more. Since Flaming Cloud Beast didn't like water, why would they stay at the bottom of the sea? Even though the Flaming Cloud Beast was angry at them, it did not seriously attack her. Was it because she was too weak?

Hearing Shui Qinan's words, Nangong Chu attempted to get closer to the Flaming Cloud Beast. The Flaming Cloud Beast only lifted its eyelids to look at Nangong Chu, and then let out a breath from its nose, blowing Nangong Chu far away.

"It can't be that after staying at the bottom of the sea for so many years, its violent temper has become docile?" Nangong Chu stood up and joked in a sorry state.

"No, that's not it." Shui Qinan only looked at the Flaming Cloud Beast seriously. The Flaming Cloud Beast used its huge body to put that trace of strange fire on the ground as the main purpose. Shui Qinan smelt a trace of danger. This Flaming Cloud Beast seemed to be waiting for something, and this strange fire was clearly very important to the Flaming Cloud Beast.

Honglong! Honglong! Honglong!

From afar, a burst of weird sounds came out. Nangong Chu and Shui Qinan looked over at the same time, it was a black storm, and it was approaching them. Even someone as calm as Shui Qinan couldn't help but want to curse out loud. So this was what the Flaming Cloud Beast was waiting for!

"Underwater Storm, our luck is good enough." Nangong Chu said with a wry smile.

Shui Qinan looked at Flaming Cloud Beast, who was also looking at her, with a provocative expression.

"Quick, run." Nangong Chu pulled Shui Qinan and was about to run, but Shui Qinan shook him off, and said with an astonished face: "What are you trying to do?"

"Didn't you notice that something was wrong? With the appearance of the underwater storm, no matter how strong the warriors or how powerful the demonic beasts were, they would not be able to escape once they were caught, so why didn't the Flaming Cloud Beast run away? Shui Qinan said as she pointed to the Flaming Cloud Beast. The Flaming Cloud Beast obviously knew that he would be fine, but why was it that they were clearly very close to it?

Nangong Chu also realized that something was amiss after Shui Qinan's reminder. He smiled and said: "Let's go to the side of the Flaming Cloud Beast."

The underwater storm was approaching closer and closer. Shui Qinan could feel waves of stabbing pain on her face and her clothes were flying wildly. After Shui Qinan finished speaking, she immediately walked to the Flaming Cloud Beast's side. And in these three steps, the moment Shui Qinan reached the Flaming Cloud Beast's side, Shui Qinan actually did not feel the discomfort that the underwater storm had brought him.

"Sure enough." Shui Qinan sneered, the place that Flaming Cloud Beast was at seemed to be the same as the place they were at just now. But in reality, the ground that Flaming Cloud Beast was on was its own region, that was a barrier.

Nangong Chu also hurriedly entered. Just as he stepped into the side of the Flaming Cloud Beast, the underwater storm whistled by and they were not harmed in the slightest.

The Flaming Cloud Beast was very angry when it saw the two humans come to its territory. It roared continuously, attempting to chase the two of them out.

However, Shui Qinan was not afraid at all, although she did not know the reason why the Flaming Cloud Beast came to the seabed, but it was obvious that the Flaming Cloud Beast's strength was greatly reduced.

"What exactly is the reason why this Flaming Cloud Beast was willing to guard this place? Furthermore, from the looks of it, this Flaming Cloud Beast has quite a few terrifying corpses on its side. It is obvious that it has killed quite a few of the people who came here." Shui Qinan analyzed the monster core that was lying on the ground.

It stood up and swept its long tail towards Shui Qinan and Nangong Chu. If Shui Qinan and Nangong Chu really wanted to work together to fight the Flaming Cloud Beast, they would hear a beautiful voice sounding from behind them.
