"Hehe."
The Fire Demon chuckled, "I'm not at ease either. What if you seize this opportunity to kill me?"
"..."
I didn't want to speak.
You're driving me crazy with your giggling.
"Interested in watching them fight?" the Fire Demon proposed resolutely.
"Can I go in?"
"Of course."
The Fire Demon smiled, "Am I an ancient giant demon for nothing? Naturally, I have my ways. Besides, this body still belongs to me."
"..., alright."
Let's go and see.
Chen Fan also wanted to witness how souls fought.
He had never seen souls fight before.
"Come."
The Fire Demon extended a hand.
Chen Fan thought for a moment, then reached out and clasped it.
"Buzz."
The Golden Silk Cicada Robe activated, enveloping his physical body.
Hong Si stood by the side the entire time, as if he had seen nothing.
"Watch this place."
As soon as the words fell, the scene before his eyes changed.
It was no longer the familiar small eatery but a world engulfed in flames.
Another world of flames.
At this moment, his body was slightly ethereal; this was the power of the soul.
The Fire Demon, however, remained in the form of a little girl, her soul as solid as her physical body.
Chen Fan's brow furrowed. Da Feng Novel Network
A sense of dread suddenly washed over him.
Yes.
He was a little panicked.
Even a little regretful.
"Scared?"
The Fire Demon was still smiling, appearing harmless.
"..."
Scared.
But what could be done?
He had already entered.
Shaking his head, "Here, I'm probably not your match."
"Not probably, definitely," the Fire Demon corrected.
"..."
"Don't worry."
The Fire Demon was too engrossed in her role, truly believing herself to be an innocent little girl. "If you didn't attack me outside, I won't take advantage of your situation to attack you."
Chen Fan: "..."
Hopefully so.
"Rumble!"
The roar of battle interrupted their conversation.
Ahead, countless figures were clashing in the sky.
They were all Saint Emperor and Tinuk.
A battle of souls, whoever was stronger would win.
If Tinuk was defeated, he would truly become a vegetable.
Half of the soul sea trembled, raising monstrous waves.
Tinuk was being suppressed.
"Tsk tsk."
The Fire Demon and Chen Fan stood in the sky above the other half of the calm soul sea. The Fire Demon spoke, "The person you found seems to be no match for the opponent."
Chen Fan: "..."
It really seemed to be the case.
The Fire Demon asked again, "If the person you found fails, will you kill me?"
Chen Fan: "..."
He hadn't considered this question.
If the Fire Demon was truly an evil demon who did all sorts of wicked deeds, he wouldn't feel guilty about attacking her.
But Hong Si had told him about the Fire Demon before.
This ancient demonic beast had been sleeping in the Fire Prison.
According to Hong Si, over the past five hundred years, the Fire Demon had not killed a single one of them.
This ancient demonic beast didn't seem to be bloodthirsty.
The Qin family army's heavy losses were entirely due to the Fire Prison's suppressive power.
Although the Fire Demon's power was involved, it was not intentionally unleashed by her.
Furthermore, over these years, if the Fire Demon hadn't been suppressing the Fire Prison, they would likely have all perished long ago.
Finally, Chen Fan shook his head, "I will not kill you."
Ultimately, he couldn't overcome that inner barrier.
"Really?"
The Fire Demon's eyes sparkled.
"Yes."
Chen Fan nodded, "If Tinuk is truly defeated, I will let you go. Of course, if you are unwilling to be devoured by the Saint Emperor and need me to help you find release, I can assist."
"Tch."
Upon hearing this, the Fire Demon pouted, "You still want to kill me."
Chen Fan: "..."
That's not what I meant.
"Forget it, forget it."
The Fire Demon generously decided not to quibble with him, smiling, "Why don't you beg me? I can help."
"Huh?"
Chen Fan looked at the Fire Demon.
"Why are you looking at me?"
The Fire Demon feigned innocence, "The Saint Emperor and I each control half of the soul sea. Our strength is originally comparable. If I help Tinuk now, there's a high chance I can shatter the Saint Emperor's soul."
This was indeed the case.
The soul sea was divided into two.
The Saint Emperor and the Fire Demon each occupied half.
"Then go and help," Chen Fan said.
Fire Demon: "???"
Are you deaf?
Didn't you hear me asking you to beg?
"..."
Chen Fan remained silent, pretending not to see the Fire Demon's glare.
After a long stare, the Fire Demon conceded.
"Alright, I'll help."
Finally, the Fire Demon added, "However, if I help you, you have to promise me one thing."
"What thing?"
"Let me follow you."
"..., okay."
As long as the Saint Emperor could be killed, any request was acceptable.
"Hehe."
Damn it.
Chen Fan wanted to curse.
"Boom."
Before he could curse, the calm half of the soul sea began to churn.
The Fire Demon's soul sea surged upwards, crashing like waves towards the Saint Emperor.
The Saint Emperor's soul clones suffered heavy casualties instantly.
"Fire Demon," the Saint Emperor roared in anger.
"Hehe."
The Fire Demon's soul remained by Chen Fan's side, only using her soul sea to assist.
Even so, it was enough.
The Saint Emperor's advantage instantly turned into a disadvantage.
"Hahaha."
Tinuk, who had been on the defensive, turned the tables. Laughing heartily, he attacked even more fiercely. "Old man, do you know what it means to be kicked when you're down? After shedding your pretense, you're nothing but a stray dog."
Bang, bang, bang.
Saint Emperor clones were shattered one by one.
The dissipated soul power was frantically absorbed by Tinuk.
"That's my soul!" the Fire Demon was displeased.
