Chapter 225: Hot Fire

Xiao Zhen's whole body turned into a ball of fire and flew towards the lotus in the green light.

Seeing a small green flame burning inside the lotus, Xiao Zhen's eyes were filled with excitement and enthusiasm. He could finally have a strange fire of his own.

A palm made of flames slowly touched the green flame.

"what!!!"

The moment Xiao Zhen touched the green flame, he suddenly let out a scream of pain.

He quickly withdrew his hand, his eyes full of unwillingness. He was really careless this time and underestimated the power of the Green Lotus Earth Core Fire.

In the original novel, his adopted nephew Xiao Yan was able to absorb the Azure Lotus Earth Core Fire, which was actually due to a lot of luck.

First, under the reminder of old man Yao, a lot of sufficient preparations have been made, and the necessary pills and props have almost been collected.

Second, the Azure Lotus Earth Core Fire was taken away by Queen Medusa for evolution, during which time it was consumed by a pool of icy cold spring water, and its power had been greatly reduced.

The third is the Burning Decree, a heaven-defying cheating technique. With the help of the Burning Decree, it is of great help in subduing the strange fire.

Xiao Zhen simply waved his hand and cut off the roots of the lotus. Then he put the lotus and the strange fire into the system space.

Xiao Zhen has also become a little more sober. He used to think that with the fire control ability brought by the Flame-Flame Fruit and the Seven-Star Pill, refining a low-ranked Green Lotus Earth Core Fire would be as easy as eating and drinking. Now it seems that he was a little arrogant.

Medusa could find a pool of icy cold spring water, but Xiao Zhen felt that he didn't need so much, just two buckets would be enough.

Anyway, the strange fire is already in hand, and refining it is only a matter of time. So I should make some preparations first, such as making a few more useful pills.

Die, who had been waiting there for a while, took a few skewers of raw meat out of boredom and placed them directly in the air, which soon began to sizzle.

"This damn place is not a place for humans to stay. I wonder if we have dealt with the bad guy yet!" Die sniffed the barbecue in his hand and said boredly.

At this moment, the lava lake suddenly exploded and Xiao Zhen's figure flew out.

Seeing that Xiao Zhen had returned, Die didn't care whether the skewers in her hand were cooked or not, and chewed them directly into her mouth.

Xiao Zhen looked at the woman in front of him, his mouth moving, and he was so angry. He had worked so hard to search for the strange fire below, but she was actually eating skewers on it.

Die scratched her head embarrassedly and quickly changed the subject.

"How's it going? Did you find the strange fire?"

Xiao Zhen was too lazy to argue with this woman. He decided to leave this damn place as soon as possible and find a city to have a good rest for a while.

"The things have been found. It went smoothly without any trouble!" Xiao Zhen nodded and said calmly.

Just as the two were about to leave, Xiao Zhen saw the two-headed fire snake in the magma again and asked curiously:

"So what should we do with this guy? Should we keep him here?"

Die just remembered that there was such a snake. She tapped her chin with her slender fingers and then smiled happily:

"This guy is pretty cute. Why not take him back to the Xiao family, even if he can just be a janitor!"

Cute? Xiao Zhen looked at the two-headed fire snake a few more times. He really couldn't figure out how tasteful Die was, or if there was something wrong with his eyes.

Xiao Zhen waved his hand and said indifferently: "Okay, but this guy is a bit big and it's not easy to carry around."

Die was also troubled for a moment. After all, her storage ring could not hold living things. Otherwise, the space inside could accommodate this big guy.

Seeing Die so worried, Xiao Zhen sighed and said, "Forget it, let's send him to the robot world first, and then get him out after we get to the Xiao family!"

When Die heard this idea, she immediately waved her hand happily and shouted, "This is a good idea, I think it's great!"

Xiao Zhen then brought the two-headed fire snake into the mechanical beast world, which was located next to the Energy City.

Seeing Xiao Zhen coming, many familiar soldiers came out to greet him. Even the Lightning City Lord, who was very busy, came out to show his face.

Xiao Zhen explained his origins to everyone, hoping that they could help take care of the newly acquired "pets", and he did not forget to leave some food before leaving.

Otherwise, if this two-headed fire snake gets too hungry and attacks the robots in the Energy City, it will die.

After resolving everything, Xiao Zhen returned to the original place. After another round of passing through layers of sand, the two finally returned to the ground.

Looking at the familiar sky, although the surrounding temperature is still very high, it is much cooler than inside the lava channel.

"Wow, I finally left that damn place. The air up there is still fresh!" Die couldn't help but open his hands and took deep breaths with a look of enjoyment.

Xiao Zhen was too lazy to care about the careless woman next to him. She was over 300 years old anyway, so he didn't need to worry about everything.

"Okay, it's time for us to leave. If things go well, we can return to the imperial capital in a few days!" Xiao Zhen pulled the older sister next to him and said impatiently.

When Die heard that she was going back to the imperial capital, she thought of the countless delicious snacks there. She had been walking outside for the past few days, and except for the time she spent in towns, she had been eating dry food the rest of the time. This made Die, who had enjoyed delicious food for several years, a little uncomfortable.

Xiao Zhen shook his head helplessly. Die's obsession with food now made him, the reincarnation of a foodie country, feel inferior.

Xiao Zhen said calmly: "Let's go. We'll go to the nearest Stone Desert City to rest for a night and then we'll set off back tomorrow!"

Die nodded, and then simply performed the transformation technique, turning the snake tail on the lower body into a pair of thighs.

After everything was ready, two figures flew into the sky, and the fighting wings behind them continued to emit powerful aura.

At the gate of Shimo City, several soldiers on duty were strictly searching everyone entering and leaving. Occasionally, they could extort some money, which was considered their income in addition to their salaries.

Soldier A: "Old Wang, look at those two flying over there in the sky. They look awesome. Could they be some kind of magical beasts?"

Soldier B: "You ask me, how should I know? We should go and inform the captain. He is an eight-star master. If anything really happens, there is a tall guy like him to take care of it. We soldiers just need to act according to circumstances!"

Soldier A: "You have a point. If a fight really breaks out and the situation gets bad, don't forget to drag your brothers along with you!"

Soon two figures landed at the city gate, one was a young man, and the other was a charming woman.

After seeing the two people clearly, everyone couldn't help but shut their mouths. The man and woman just now had fighting wings behind them. They were at least a pair of Dou Wang powerful warriors.

Unless you have a long life, it is better to stay away from him. Otherwise, you will probably see what a Dou Wang strongman is. It is so terrifying!

Xiao Zhen walked into the city without thinking. He was still wearing an alchemist's robe and a fourth-grade alchemist badge on his chest. He showed off his status so clearly and had no intention of keeping a low profile at all.

The great warrior guarding the city gate came forward respectfully and asked with a flattering smile:

"I don't know if you two adults are here. It is really an honor for our Shimo City!"

Xiao Zhen was too lazy to waste time talking to the gatekeeper. They had lived in Shimo City for a while before, but they were relatively low-key at the time, so the gatekeeper didn't recognize them.

"We are just here to rest for one night and will leave tomorrow. Don't disturb us, otherwise..."

After saying a few words, Xiao Zhen took Die's hand and walked into Shimo City.
