Chapter 203: Sleeping Zi Yan

Seeing that Elder Huo was deep in thought, Xiao Ming immediately struck the iron while it was hot.

"Master, don't worry, I have special techniques, extracting the Heavenly Flame Source won't harm me that much".

This was actually true, after all, the Heavenly Flames were all absorbed by the Spirit, so it wouldn't damage Xiao Ming's original body, it would just be somewhat uncomfortable to the Spirit.

However, Xiao Ming had no intention of actually extracting the Source from his Heavenly Flame, when the time came, he would just leave that little seed flame of Venerable Tian Huo directly.

"What happens to the Blazing Sky Qi Refining Tower after you devour the Heavenly Flame? We can't stop the Tower for a while just for you, you know, advancing to Dou Ancestor can take a long time." Elder Huo's tone loosened, but not by much and he was still making excuses.

"Besides, you should also know how difficult it is to deal with that Fire Spirit underneath the Blazing Sky Qi Refining Tower, that Fire Spirit already took shape".

Xiao Ming smiled confidently; he had considered all of this.

"The matter of Blazing Sky Qi Refining Tower is easy to handle, I remember that the Academy has a special container to store the Heart Flame Essence for a long time, right?"

"So you know, it seems like you brat got ideas with the Fallen Heart Flame for more than a day or two, right?" Elder Huo looked at Xiao Ming meaningfully.

Xiao Ming smiled embarrassedly, "I'm not doing the Academy any harm, that big Fallen Heart Flame is making a fuss every day, it's not comparable to the benefits it would bring to have a small Fallen Heart Flame."

"Since everyone has advanced to Dou Ancestor, it's the right time to suppress this rebellious Fallen Heart Flame, there are many benefits and not a single harm."

"You are very considerate to the Academy." Elder Huo shook his head without saying anything, but he also had to admit that what Xiao Ming said was really very reasonable.

Switching to a younger Fallen Heart Flame would indeed be good for the Jia Nan Academy, and Xiao Ming could also use it to break through to Dou Ancestor.

It could be said that it was a win-win for everyone.

The only thing that could be a concern was that Xiao Ming would run away after obtaining the Fallen Heart Flame, but this was something that he, Elder Huo, who had watched Xiao Ming grow up, could guarantee that he would not do.

What he was worried about was whether or not that special technique Xiao Ming said was real or not.

"Is that special technique of yours real or not?" Elder Huo had a suspicious look on his face.

"Of course, it's real." Xiao Ming patted his chest and assured him.

Finally, under Xiao Ming's persuasion, Elder Huo reluctantly agreed.

...

The next day, Xiao Ming, who had spent a day at the Outer Academy, went directly to the Inner Academy, accompanied by Zi Yan, as well as Xiao Yi Xian.

The Amethyst Winged Lion King, meanwhile, was still serving as a mount.

Leaning on Xiao Ming's side, Zi Yan was still popping pills into her mouth, but her gaze was fixed on Xiao Yi Xian who was in Xiao Ming's arms.

Inwardly, she began to mutter, 'Hmph, just wait, sister, when I break through to Dou Emperor, I will also become bigger, and then we will see who Xiao Ming prefers, hehehe'.

Imagining Xiao Yi Xian looking at her enviously from the side as she enjoyed herself in Xiao Ming's arms, Zi Yan could not help but laugh out loud.

This caught Xiao Ming's attention, it was fine if he didn't look, but he was surprised when he did, why was Zi Yan's face red?

Xiao Ming hurriedly moved his hand towards Zi Yan's little head, only to feel that her little head was as hot as a furnace.

"Hmm, do you like me now, Xiao Ming?" At this moment, Zi Yan was a little dizzy.

Xiao Ming's movements also caught Xiao Yi Xian's attention, and after turning to look at the abnormally rosy Zi Yan, she asked with great concern on her face.

"What's happening to Sister Zi Yan!?"

After probing, Xiao Ming said a little speechless.

"I'm afraid she's about to break through".

Just now, he had probed Zi Yan's storage ring and discovered that all the pills he had given her had been devoured by her.

One had to know that it had only been one day!

With so many pills, the pent-up energy was already huge, moreover, Zi Yan was in the bottleneck to make the breakthrough, so it was no wonder she was in such a state.

Xiao Yi Xian nodded and sensibly let the dazed Zi Yan lay in Xiao Ming's arms as she said.

"So it's a breakthrough". Seeing that Zi Yan was fine, Xiao Yi Xian immediately sighed in relief, and then continued, "Now that we are at a high altitude, this is not a good place for her to break through, let's hurry up and rush to the Inner Academy."

Xiao Ming nodded his head, then instructed the Amethyst Winged Lion King, "Shi Zi, fly to the Inner Academy with all your might!".

"Yes!"

Under the full flying power of the Amethyst Winged Lion King, half an hour later, Xiao Ming and his group arrived at the Inner Academy, using a special technique to open the barrier, the wings on Xiao Ming's back flashed with silver light as he carried Zi Yan directly to his residence, the two Guardian Elders watched this with a puzzled look on their faces.

Luckily, with Xiao Yi Xian and the Amethyst Winged Lion King left to explain, the two Elders knew what had happened.

In Xiao Ming's arms, Zi Yan had already started to lose consciousness, and her little face was glowing with a purple haze. Xiao Ming could feel that a huge amount of energy was about to gush out of Zi Yan's body.

"Don't activate the cocoon yet, don't wrap me in it."

Hearing Xiao Ming's words, Zi Yan frowned and the purple light on her face faded a little.

Seeing this scene, Xiao Ming heaved a sigh of relief, but his speed increased again.

Some time later, he appeared in the small courtyard where he lived, and in it sat a young girl dressed in green.

Xiao Ming's arrival made her little face fill with pleasant surprise, but Xiao Ming's action of entering directly through the door of Zi Yan's room made her look confused.

The green-clad young girl followed behind Xiao Ming, and suddenly saw Zi Yan's body glow the moment Xiao Ming laid her down on the bed.

The strong purple light burst out from her body and finally turned into a purple glowing cocoon that was three meters wide, enveloping her entire body.

"What happened to Sister Zi Yan?" asked Qing Lin, somewhat stunned.

On the surface of the cocoon, the purple light brightened and darkened at times, just like the beating of a heart, in a rhythmic manner.

Xiao Ming could clearly perceive that every time the light in the cocoon changed, there was a subtle fluctuation in the energy of the sky and earth around it, and then all the energy in the air was absorbed by the cocoon, making it even brighter.

Seeing that everything seemed to be fine, Xiao Ming wiped the nonexistent cold sweat on his head and said, "Zi Yan is about to make a breakthrough, so there's nothing to worry about."

"So it's a breakthrough." Qing Lin nodded, putting aside the worry in her heart, she turned to ask, "Young Master, where is Sister Xian'er? I thought she went out with you. Why are only the two of you back?"

"It was an emergency just now, so I went ahead and returned first, your sister Xian'er is coming behind." Xiao Ming explained, then led Qing Lin out of ZI Yan's room, closing the door behind him in the process.

After doing this, Xiao Yi Xian also arrived at the small courtyard, and next to her was Elder Su Qian.

As soon as Su Qian landed on the ground, he asked, "Did I hear that Zi Yan is about to break through?".

"Yes, now she has formed a cocoon and lay down on her bed..." Xiao Ming replied softly. "Would you like to enter and take a look, First Elder?"

"No, I just wanted to make sure she's making a breakthrough." Hearing that Zi Yan was about to make a breakthrough, Su Qian stroked his beard in relief and rejected Xiao Ming's proposal.
