Battle Through the Heavens: The Soul Emperor's Only Daughter, I Am the Young Master of the Soul

Chapter 49 Methods of Devouring Strange Flames

After absorbing the Soul Qing's essence and retaining the soul power within the Soul Locking Bracelet, Yao Chen woke up to find the little girl whispering to Da Zi with a smile on her face, seemingly unaffected by the matter of the Holy Spirit Long.

That put his mind at ease!

He was worried that the little girl, who had been pampered since childhood and had never been deceived by anyone, might get stuck on this for the first time.

It seems that the little girl has a strong and resilient heart.

"Little Qing'er." Yao Chen called out, and Hun Qinghao immediately looked over when she heard his voice.

Meeting her clear, bright eyes, Yao Chen smiled and walked over, extending his left hand to her, and said gently, "Now that you're awake, I should return this bracelet to you."

"Have you fully recovered?" Hun Qinghao blinked and tilted her head slightly. "Besides the soul power I left behind, the Soul-Locking Bracelet also contains some soul power I collected before. Aren't you going to absorb it?"

Yao Chen shook his head. "Your soul power has helped me recover a lot. Qing'er, keep that soul power for yourself, just in case."

"Alright!" Hun Qinghao pouted, took the Soul-Locking Bracelet from Yao Chen's hand, and put it on her left wrist. "But I don't need that soul power. I'll give it to you after I refine it all into Soul Beads!"

"You!" Yao Chen smiled helplessly, not refusing the girl's kindness.

"Um...you guys chat first, I'm going out to explore the snake people's tribe." Da Zi scratched his head and said. He felt that the atmosphere was a bit strange. After saying that, he quickly ran out.

Hun Qinghao curled his lips, "This Da Zi, the snake-man tribe isn't going anywhere, why is he in such a hurry?"

However, remembering her purpose in coming to the Snake People's Clan, she slammed her hand on the table and stood up. "No, I want to go find Queen Sister to play with too."

Although the World-Destroying Black Flame has returned and can roughly sense the location of the Azure Lotus Earth Core Flame, the Queen has been very kind to her, so why not go with the Queen to find the Azure Lotus Earth Core Flame? After all, she only wants the lotus platform.

Just as Hun Qing was about to leave, Yao Chen stopped her, "Qing'er, wait a minute. Queen Medusa should be cultivating in the cave below her palace right now, she probably won't have time to deal with you."

How did you know?

"During your slumber, Queen Medusa did this every day; she was probably accumulating energy for evolution."

Upon hearing this, Hun Qinghao sat down again.

"The Queen wants to devour the Azure Lotus Earth Core Flame to evolve."

"It's rare for her to have such courage. It's just a pity that a strange fire can't be devoured so easily. Queen Medusa's actions were a matter of life and death. If she hadn't prepared some special methods, she would most likely have been burned to ashes by the Azure Lotus Earth Core Fire," Yao Chen sighed.

Hun Qinghao frowned, wondering how to help Queen Medusa devour the strange fire. She herself possessed the World-Destroying Black Flame and had no feeling for strange fires, but it was different for those who had never been in contact with strange fires. If they devoured it directly, they would not be able to withstand the power of the strange fire.

Does she intend to treat the Azure Lotus Earth Core Flame the same way she treated the newly born Void Devouring Flame, ravaging it with the World-Destroying Black Flame for several years until it becomes completely powerless?

But Queen Medusa seems unable to wait that long.

Suddenly remembering how Xiao Yan had devoured the Green Lotus Earth Core Flame, Hun Qinghao looked at Yao Chen with sparkling eyes.

Seeing the look in her eyes, Yao Chen knew what she was thinking, and raised an eyebrow slightly, asking, "Qing'er wants to help her?"

"Yes, yes, I quite like Queen Sister." Hun Qinghao nodded repeatedly, a big smile spreading across her face. "You're an eighth-grade alchemist, and you possess the Bone Spirit Cold Flame, so you must know how to successfully devour a strange flame, right?"

Because of the passage of time, she could no longer recall the specific process of Xiao Yan absorbing the Green Lotus Earth Core Flame, but Yao Chen, who gave Xiao Yan the idea, certainly did.

Yao Chen: "For a human to devour the Azure Lotus Earth Core Flame, three external conditions are required. First, the absorption of spirit, which involves opening up a space within the body to store the strange flame. Second, the Blood Lotus Pill. Third, the Ice Spirit Cold Spring. Queen Medusa is not human, so she only needs the Blood Lotus Pill and the Ice Spirit Cold Spring."

"I have the Ice Spirit Cold Spring, which is somewhat useful to a certain treacherous and cunning person. It's a fifth-grade pill called the Blood Lotus Pill..." Hun Qing paused here, looking at Yao Chen expectantly.

"Qing'er wants me to refine this Grade 5 Blood Lotus Pill?" Yao Chen asked with a smile in his eyes.

Hun Qinghao nodded and blinked her big eyes: "Is that okay?"

"Ahem... I would be more than happy to refine pills for Qing'er, but as for others... well, that's another story." Yao Chen cleared his throat and said seriously with his hands behind his back.

The little girl has a domineering personality, and this is the first time she has shown him a pleading look. He has to tease her a bit first.

Although Yao Chen refused, Hun Qinghao was not unhappy because he said he was only willing to refine pills for her, which was the awareness of being her exclusive alchemist.

Yao Chen waited and waited, but Hun Qing never showed up to continue with the next move.

He looked down and saw the little girl holding her face, seemingly lost in thought, but she looked very happy.

"??" Yao Chen was filled with questions.

Something's not right, this isn't like her!

Given her personality, how could she tolerate his refusal? Has this girl changed her ways?

The moment the thought crossed his mind, Yao Chen dismissed it.

Hun Qing didn't react, so Yao Chen sighed and continued:

"The entire snake-people race knows that I am Teacher Qing'er, but apart from that one time half a month ago, Qing'er has never called me that before."

"I'll help you refine a Blood Lotus Pill for Queen Medusa. Will you call me 'teacher' again, Qing'er?"

teacher?

Looking up at Yao Chen, whose eyes were smiling, Hun Qinghao scratched his head with both hands, his expression somewhat unnatural.

She can now openly acknowledge him as her teacher in front of others, but she still finds it difficult to call him that in his presence.

She felt incredibly embarrassed when she thought about the boastful words she had made in front of him at the beginning.

Indeed, one should not speak too confidently, otherwise it is very easy to be proven wrong.

Yao Chen was quite disappointed when he didn't hear Hun Qinghao's reply. He had thought that the little girl had opened her heart to him, but after the incident with Sheng Linglong, she had shrunk back.

"Alright, I was just teasing you. Qing'er wants the Blood Lotus Pill, so how could I not refine it for you?" Yao Chen sighed after ruffling her soft hair, then turned and floated away.

Hun Qinghao raised her head and looked at his slightly lonely back, her eyes flickering.

"teacher!"

Without thinking, she impulsively shouted it out.

Then she realized that the name wasn't so difficult to say.

Upon hearing the clear "Teacher," Yao Chen froze, stunned in place, his eyes filled with disbelief.

Seeing this, Hun Qinghao got up, ran over, hugged him from behind, and called out crisply, "Teacher!"
