"Wait a moment."

Shui Qinan turned her head to look. Unknowingly, the underwater storm had already disappeared, and a Dragonee had actually appeared behind them.

and her, who had arrived at some place in Dragonee, actually did not feel anything at all. Shui Qinan and Nangong Chu looked at each other and asked, "What is it?"

The sudden appearance of the Dragonee made Shui Qinan and Nangong Chu extremely cautious, but the Flaming Cloud Beast seemed to be very happy, rushing out of its enchantment and arriving beside the Dragonee.

"You came for the Flaming Cloud Beast's crystal core, right? I didn't guess wrongly that it was because the lady needs it." Dragonee said gently.

"Hmm?" Shui Qinan looked this Dragonee up and down. In this dilapidated underwater city, there was actually another Dragonee? Wasn't the world under the sea destroyed?

"I have a crystal more useful to you than a Flaming Cloud Beast's crystal core. Please show mercy." Dragonee took out a fiery-red crystal core and said sincerely.

Shui Qinan didn't understand why Dragonee was doing this. Even if he and Nangong Chu were to work together to fight the Flaming Cloud Beast, they might not necessarily be its match. Why did Dragonee make her let the Flaming Cloud Beast go?

Furthermore … Furthermore, she took a Fire Dragon Crystal Core. This Crystal Core was indeed more useful to her than a Flaming Cloud Beast Crystal Core.

Nangong Chu suspiciously accepted the crystal core from the Dragonee. The Dragonee obviously heaved a sigh of relief, he turned and left, but after taking two steps, she turned around and waved towards the Flaming Cloud Beast. The Flaming Cloud Beast followed behind her obediently, and in a moment the two of them disappeared.

Shui Qinan seemed to have heard a sentence when the Dragonee was about to leave.

"It's finally here …"

It's finally here. Who's here? Is it her? Shui Qinan and Nangong Chu looked at each other. Then she left … Isn't Flaming Cloud Beast protecting the 'Heavenly Flame'?

"Your luck is too good." Nangong Chu could not help but exclaim. The corner of his mouth twitched as he looked at the flame; as long as she had this flame, his stalled alchemy skills would increase by a step.

He had only come here to look for the crystal core. What an unexpected gain.

"Nangong, I want to merge with the 'Heavenly Flame'." Shui Qinan said firmly as she approached the Heavenly Flame.

"Alright." As soon as Nangong Chu finished speaking, he saw Shui Qinan sitting cross-legged next to the Heavenly Flame. Nangong Chu worriedly looked at Shui Qinan who was sitting cross-legged on the ground. Although this strange fire was related to the fire essence of Shui Qinan, the spirit force of the strange fire was extremely strong and violent. He was afraid that Shui Qinan would accidentally leave him with the heart demon seed. Nangong Chu could only protect Shui Qinan and ensure that the outside world would not distract her!

Shui Qinan sat cross-legged on the ground and focused on drawing in the flame with her mind, slowly disintegrating it into the fire source in her body. This was an extremely taxing process, and after dissecting the cocoon for two hours, Shui Qinan felt that his entire body was drenched in sweat, and his body was extremely uncomfortable. However, when she looked at the remaining essence of the Heavenly Flame which was covered in a deep blue colored fire core, Shui Qinan's consciousness felt as if his heart was sealed by ice. Just the melting of the fire core at the edge of his heart was already enough to make her struggle for a while, but now, this core that was only slightly bigger than a medicinal pellet made Shui Qinan feel a sense of danger.

The Protector at the side also felt Shui Qinan's abnormal Qi fluctuations. He looked at her in panic, but he did not make a sound.

In the cultivation world, cultivation was always against the heaven's will. Everyone stood at the peak and looked down on mortals because of the pain that others couldn't bear, let alone the fact that she was the devil girl, Xue Ji!

Shui Qinan firmed her mind and pushed the fire core into her body. But in an instant, the fire core in Shui Qinan's body became many times larger, and as she used her spirit energy to suppress it, her cold face also turned pale white. Her lips that were tightly clenched could not bear the rebellion caused by the fire core. Shui Qinan could feel that her own spirit energy was gradually weakening while the Fire Core that had just weakened slightly seemed to be preparing to give her a fatal blow. Nangong Chu's heart was so nervous that it had tightened up, and when he saw that Shui Qinan had slightly improved, just as he was about to let out a sigh of relief, he suddenly felt that something was wrong, and he quickly channeled spirit energy into Shui Qinan.

After receiving Nangong Chu's spirit energy, Shui Qinan's consciousness had already become a bit loose, but she was just this step away. Shui Qinan bit her lips hard, and the excruciating pain caused her to become much more clear-headed. After receiving the blow, it gradually fused with the fire source in its body. Shui Qinan then let out a sigh of relief and fainted.

The instant that Shui Qinan fell to the ground, Nangong Chu reached out his hands to catch her. Seeing Shui Qinan's bloody lips, Nangong Chu helplessly let out a long sigh, before carrying Shui Qinan and disappearing from the underwater city.

Three days had already passed by the time Shui Qinan became conscious again, and when she opened her eyes, she saw Xiao You's red eyes staring straight at her.

Xiao You didn't want to leave his mother's side for the past three days after she got back from being injured. Seeing her suddenly awaken, Xiao You's tears fell as he looked at Shui Qinan with grievance, "Mother!" She immediately pounced towards Shui Qinan's bedside.

Hearing Xiao You's words, Shui Qinan's heart melted. She reached out her hand and gently patted Xiao You's trembling body. She was extremely ashamed of herself; Xiao You, Mother was wrong this time! " Xiao You's face was buried under the blanket. Hearing his mother's words, his sobbing body paused for a moment.

It was unknown when Nangong Chu had stood at the entrance and looked at this warm scene, but he had changed into the appearance of the "President Nangong" that everyone knew. He was still the President Nangong in the academy, but outside, he was still her loyal subordinate and her old friend.

Shui Qinan comforted Xiao You's uneasy emotions gently and raised her head to meet Nangong Chu's warm gaze. Shui Qinan thanked him and smiled, "Nan Gong, you're here!"

When Xiao You heard his mother say that the President Nangong was here, he quickly wiped the tears off his face and stood up. Seeing Xiao You giving him such a helpless smile, Xiao You was already a young lord!

Nangong Chu looked at Xiao You's slightly red eyes and glanced at him embarrassedly. In his heart, he felt that Xiao You was very cute, so he laughed out loud. When Xiao You heard President Nangong's laughter, his face also became redder and redder. He looked at Mother and realised that Mother was also laughing. He felt as if his face was on fire as he said awkwardly, "I'll go get the medicine!" He ran out.

Nangong Chu and Shui Qinan laughed out loud when they saw Xiao You's actions. Nangong Chu saw that Shui Qinan's skin was still pale white, and his face looked unhappy, but he did not say a word.
