Versatile Mage: Summon eight demons at the beginning

Chapter 254 Queen Flame Fairy
……

Following the rugged mountain road, Lu Cheng and Yan Ji came to the top of the Flame Demon Mountain. The entire top of the mountain was made of very hard flint baked by flames, and spirit seed fragments could be seen everywhere. Yan Ji was not picky and just picked them up and put them in her mouth.

"Is there enough energy here?" Lu Cheng asked.

Yan Ji stopped eating, closed her eyes and carefully felt the energy of the Fire Demon Mountain. After a long while, she hesitated and shook her head.

Its flame bloodline was influenced by Lu Cheng's own energy and evolved a little bit. The energy here was not enough to support it to break through the boundaries of command.

"If it's not enough, I can get you some more." Lu Cheng pulled Yan Ji and continued walking towards the area on the mountain where the fire element was the most concentrated.

Yan Ji wanted to say something but stopped herself, looking back at the mountain from time to time.

"This is their choice," said Lu Cheng.

"Whatever they choose, I respect it."

"Now that you've grown up, you should understand these things. Things that are forcibly put together will only wear each other out and will not benefit anyone."

"Then...what about me?" Yan Ji stopped where she was and lowered her head.

Lu Cheng turned around and hugged Yan Ji into his arms, "It's different, you are my child, I have no requirements for you, as long as you are happy."

"But, they..." Yan Ji raised her head, feeling a little sad.

"Nothing is eternal." Lu Cheng pulled Yan Ji and continued to move forward.

"Even a conceptual life form like me will eventually come to an end. Everything that has a beginning must have an end. It's just that my time scale is a little larger than theirs."

"Everything will change. You have to learn to accept these things. Even you, maybe one day in the future, you will hate me and even want to leave me..."

"No!" Yan Ji said seriously.

"This is your current thinking, it does not represent your future self," Lu Cheng said.

“Don’t judge your past self from the present, and don’t make decisions for your future self from the present, because your future self will see your present self the same way your present self sees your past self.”

"But, I had the same idea before." Yan Ji said.

"You are still young." Lu Cheng said.

"You'll know when you grow up."

"I've grown up." Yan Ji straightened her chest.

Lu Cheng's eyes twitched slightly, "You are only three years old."

"And for the past three years, all you've done is eat and sleep."

"Shouldn't you go to sleep after eating?" Yan Ji said confidently.

"And I want to do something else, but you won't let me do it."

"What do you want to do that I don't allow you to do?" Lu Cheng asked.

"The one you did with them." Yan Ji gestured on her body with her hands.

Lu Cheng was stunned. "Are you crazy? Can I do this with you?"

"Why not?" Yan Ji asked puzzledly.

“I can watch cartoons.”

"Animation... cartoon?" Lu Cheng's eyes twitched.

"What cartoon?"

"I think her name is Ellie..."

"Stop!" Lu Cheng's face turned dark.

"Who showed you this?"

"Ye Chang, when you were doing these things in Venice, she took me to watch it. Later, Jiang Shaoxu also took me to watch it. She also said that you would definitely be very... um!"

"Forget about these things!"

"..."...

"Boom boom boom~~~~!!!"

Just as Jiang Shaoxu and his group were about to follow to see what was going on, a familiar pillar of fire erupted from the Flame Demon Mountain. However, unlike the previous one in Zhuoyuan, this time the pillar of fire was like a whirlpool, madly absorbing fire elements from all directions.

In just a few minutes, a huge vortex of fire element was formed, radiating for several kilometers in all directions.

"This is……"

It was already approaching evening, and the huge amount of fire element energy gathered towards the Flame Demon Mountain, dyeing the entire sky red, making it look like a setting sun.

"I remember that Yan Ji seemed to be advancing." Mu Nujiao said.

When in Venice, Yan Ji had already entered a bottleneck period, and there was no reaction after she took the spiritual seeds. At that time, Lu Cheng said that after the competition, he would take Yan Ji to find a suitable holy land of fire for advancement.

"Advanced?" Jiang Shaoxu was stunned.

"Yan Ji was already a leader in the growth stage. After the advancement..."

"A mature monarch, the legendary Queen Yan Ji." Lingling said.

It has been nearly a hundred years since anyone has obtained Yan Ji as a contracted beast, and it is likely that no one will be able to own one in the future.

After all, the place called Zhuoyuan has now become a purple area.

Even a super-class magician wouldn't dare to enter easily.

"In other words, he came here to help Yan Ji advance, not to run away from home?" Jiang Shaoxu said strangely.

"How could he run away from home?" Lingling had wanted to complain before.

Lu Cheng can do anything except giving up on himself. He understands life better than anyone else.

The past is the past. No matter how sad something is, as long as no one mentions it, everything about that incident will be automatically blocked in his mind.

To put it bluntly, even if he really became enemies with them, it would not have a big impact on Lu Cheng. As long as he couldn't see them, Lu Cheng would still be the same as before.

He does value his family and friends, but he won't let these things have any unnecessary negative impact on himself.

Su Meng had told her before that Lu Cheng's personality in this regard was simply a combination of her and Su Lu!
She is very single-minded and will not let her emotions and actions get mixed up and affect her judgment, whereas Su Lu is an egoist with pure self-interest as the core!

As for Lu Cheng, no matter how good a friend he is, no matter how reluctant and sad he was in the last second, as long as he chooses to be his enemy, then from that moment on, they are enemies!
As long as he has made up his mind about something, there will be no room for dragging his feet!
You can refer to what happened in Parthenon before. After the barrier was opened, Mu Ningxue was burned to ashes by the Heavenly Army, and Ye Xinxia was burned to ashes by Lu Cheng himself!
It is important, but not indispensable!
……

The sky gradually brightened, and the towering pillar of fire that had lasted a whole night finally slowly descended. At the same time, a dazzling ray of light burst out from the Flame Demon Mountain, and under the reflection of the morning sun, it almost dyed the entire sky red.

"Success?"

Jiang Shaoxu and his group, awakened by the heat wave, walked over, walked out of the camp, and saw this shocking scene.

"So beautiful."

Everyone looked at the huge figure of Queen Yan Ji reflected on the Flame Demon Mountain in surprise.

"But why do I feel a chill?" Jiang Shaoxu asked puzzledly.

"Do I have a cold?"

"Shouldn't it be? Xinxia gave me her blessing, so it won't happen for at least several years..."

"Aili-chan?" Lu Cheng's cold and gloomy voice sounded from behind.

Jiang Shaoxu's expression froze, "Ah?"

"What kind of sauce? Is it delicious?"

"What do you think?"

"..."

"I was wrong! I won't do that anymore! I swear!"
