Chapter 16 Immortal Lord Changli, Heart of Blazing Flames

Shen Sangruo followed Su Xiyu to a cave.

Since they were going to pay their respects to their master, Song Weiyan and Bai Ruoan also went along.

When Shen Sangri saw Changli Immortal Lord lying in the ice coffin, she was stunned.

"This is our master, Immortal Lord Changli," Su Xiyu introduced.

Seeing her expression, he added, "Master has fallen into a deep sleep due to some unexpected events."

The man in the ice coffin had a sharp and distinct profile, with exquisite and perfect features, and his ink-black hair was casually draped over his shoulders.

There was a conspicuous crimson pendant necklace on her chest.

Inside the ice coffin, a flame seemed to burn between his brows.

His eyes were lightly closed, as if he were just taking a short nap.

This Immortal Lord Changli also seems to have a fire-type spiritual root.

Ye Huai, whose roof was previously smashed by Shen Sangruo, was also here.

He stood silently by the ice coffin, still wiping the broken sword in his hand.

"Senior Brother, you've come too," Su Xiyu said to Ye Huai.

The group of fellow disciples exchanged greetings.

"I'm sorry, I didn't know that Immortal Lord Changli was in this condition," Shen Sangruo said apologetically.

She originally thought that Immortal Lord Changli was just resting or something.

"It's alright." Su Xiyu waved her hand dismissively. "Master enjoys a lively atmosphere."

She then said to Immortal Lord Changli in the ice coffin, "Master, this is Junior Sister Shen who helped us open the formation."

"She came here specifically to see you."

Shen Sangruo stepped forward, clasped her hands in greeting, and bowed respectfully, saying, "Junior Shen Sangruo pays respects to Immortal Lord Changli."

Just as he was about to say that it was inconvenient to bother him any longer and prepare to take his leave.

Strange phenomena suddenly occurred.

The crimson stone pendant on Immortal Lord Changli's chest suddenly vibrated and emitted light.

"Bang bang bang!"

It kept hitting the ice coffin, as if trying to get out of it.

"Why has the Heart of Blazing Flame suddenly become agitated?" Su Xiyu asked in surprise.

The others also rushed up and surrounded the ice crown.

The sound of the Blazing Heart colliding grew louder and louder.

"If this continues, the ice coffin might be smashed to pieces!" Song Weiyan's face was grim.

“If the ice coffin breaks, then Master…” Bai Ruoan frowned deeply.

The ice coffin is related to the life of Immortal Lord Changli.

The sudden turn of events caught them off guard.

And the situation is extremely serious.

"Why don't we open the ice coffin first?"

"Open the ice coffin."

Shen Sangruo tentatively spoke, her voice overlapping with Ye Huai's indifferent tone.

The other person's gaze was icy cold. After glancing at her, they decisively opened the ice coffin.

Since Immortal Lord Changli fell into slumber, this ice coffin has never been opened.

Opening it so rashly, I wonder what the consequences will be.

Fortunately, the Heart of Blazing Flame found an exit and flew out of the ice coffin.

The ice coffin closed quickly, and the Immortal Lord Changli inside remained as usual.

Everyone breathed a sigh of relief and looked at the "escaped" Heart of Blaze.

The Heart of Blazing Flame swayed gently, yet remained resolute, flying straight toward Shen Sangruo.

Shen Sangruo: ? ? ?

If facial expressions had a voice, then Shen Sangruo's voice at this moment would definitely be:

Don't come over here!

She dodged left and right, but the Heart of Blazing Flame only had eyes for her.

Finally, it hung steadily on her chest, satisfied, and its light faded away, and it calmed down.

Shen Sangruo stared blankly at the blazing heart on her chest.

What's the difference between this and stealing from someone else's master in front of their disciple?

She immediately tried to remove the Heart of Blaze. But the necklace around her neck seemed to be under a binding spell.

No matter how she tried to pick it, it remained firmly in place.

Heaven and earth can bear witness that she really did nothing and knew nothing.

The most urgent task is to explain things clearly to Su Xiyu and the others.

Just as she was about to speak, a sharp sword aura was already pointing directly at her.

It's Ye Huai.

Although he held a broken sword, he still exuded a chilling sword aura.

His gaze was like that of a wild beast, filled with hostility towards her.

"Speak! Who sent you to steal Master's Blazing Heart?!"

They all knew how important the Heart of Blazing Flame was to Immortal Lord Changli.

Su Xiyu and the others looked rather grim, but they still stepped forward to stop him, while Ye Huai remained unmoved.

Shen Sangruo took a deep breath and calmly explained:

“From the moment I stepped into the cave, my every move has been under your watchful eyes, and I have not overstepped any bounds.”

"Moreover, the Heart of Blaze came to me on its own initiative, not because I controlled it."

Her tone was calm, and she didn't seem flustered.

“I also want to take off the Heart of Blaze, but as you can see, it refuses to be taken off.”

"Why not go to the Wuwei Sect Master? I have no intention of stealing and am willing to cooperate with all means to take down the Blazing Heart."

She met Ye Huai's gaze fearlessly, her eyes firm and composed.

She showed no sign of guilt whatsoever.

“Yes, Junior Sister Shen entered the formation unintentionally, so how could she know what the Heart of Blazing Flame is, and how could she steal it in front of us?” Song Weiyan stroked his chin.

"Senior Brother, don't be too nervous," Bai Ruoan said gently, trying to persuade Ye Huai.

He sighed. The successive occurrences of his master's slumber and the breaking of his natal sword had shaped Ye Huai into the stubborn and aloof person he was today.

“Junior Sister Shen is right. The most urgent thing is to go to the sect leader and get the Heart of Blazing Flame.” Su Xiyu’s tone was also a bit anxious.

No one knows what kind of impact the departure of the Blazing Heart from Immortal Lord Changli will have on him while he is asleep.

Ye Huai suppressed his hostility, but his eyes still held a wary look as he looked at Shen Sangruo.

"Go to the Sect Master's Hall."

The group did not dare to delay and soon arrived at the Sect Master's Hall.

The Taoist Wuwei, who was breathing on the spirit stone he had just acquired, was so startled that he almost dropped it.

"What are you little brats doing in such a panic? You scared this old man half to death."

His gaze fell on the blazing heart on Shen Sangruo's body.

His aura suddenly changed, and his expression became serious.

He raised his hand to signal that Su Xiyu, who was about to explain, didn't need to say anything, as she seemed to already know what had happened.

His aged eyes stared straight at Shen Sangruo, like an ancient pool that had stood for thousands of years, revealing nothing of his thoughts.

"I haven't asked yet what kind of cultivation technique Sang girl is practicing now."

"The Ignition Technique," Shen Sangruo solemnly stated the name of her cultivation method.

"It's a cultivation technique I obtained by chance, and I used it as a transition after dissipating my cultivation."

She naturally couldn't reveal everything about her past life, so she made up a simple excuse.

The Taoist Master Wuwei stroked his beard, looking as if he had just realized it.

He muttered to himself, "It's my fault, it's my fault. I should have asked sooner."

He had previously used his divine sense to detect that Shen Sang had a single fire spiritual root.

But I thought it was unlikely to be such a coincidence, so I didn't ask any more questions.

"It truly is fate."

"Sect Master, what are you muttering about?" Su Xiyu asked anxiously, her face full of doubt. "Does the Sect Master have a way to remove the Blazing Heart from Junior Sister Shen's body?"

"Will the Heart of Blazing Flame affect Master if it leaves him?"

A group of people looked anxiously at the Taoist Master Wuwei.

Unexpectedly, the Taoist Master Wuwei burst into laughter the next moment, his hearty laughter echoing throughout the sect hall.

"There's no need to take down the Heart of Blaze!"
