Chapter 31: Using the Power of the Abyss, Control the Black Flame!

Chapter Thirty-One: Using the Power of the Abyss, Control the Black Flame!

(Seeking data)

Collei's face turned pale due to the sudden appearance of black flames.

"Dangerous! Get out of the way!"

Before Ye Xi could react, Collei suddenly pulled her small hand away.

Like a stressed cat, she curled up in a corner and hugged Hei Yan tightly.

"Don't come here, please stay away from me!"

"That black flame is very dangerous; don't get close to me!"

The Black Flame Serpent is the residue of the demon god that the fools injected into her back then.

This black flame has no temperature and does not burn anything inanimate.

But once a living being is contaminated, they will be engulfed in black flames in an instant and ultimately burned to a crisp!

She knows this better than anyone.

Back then, in Mondstadt, to take revenge on the fools, she unleashed the Black Flame and burned a winter diplomat alive.

That terrifying power made her feel desperate now!

"I see…"

"You're worried about my injury? Collei."

Ye Xi was not frightened by Hei Yan, but Collei's exaggerated actions surprised him a little.

He knew the danger of the black inflammation, but he did not expect Collei's reaction to be so violent.

After hearing what Collei said, he understood.

It was Collei who was afraid of being burned by the black flame.

Seeing Collei trembling in the corner, Ye Xi couldn't help but admire her small and gentle beauty.

It was because she considered him more important than herself, which is why she cared so much and feared so deeply.

It was simply pathetic and heartbreaking.

"Yes, I'm sorry, sir…"

"The Disciplinary Officer said that as soon as the seal is broken, the Black Flame Serpent will devour my consciousness…"

"Then let me die alone."

"Thank you for everything you've done for me…"

"Wow…"

Collei couldn't contain her tears.

It's not easy.

It wasn't easy to heal the devil's scale disease.

Why was the seal of the Black Flame lifted silently!?

She felt that the gods had played a trick on her and that it was normal to die in pain. Why should she have hope before dying?

Since the end was doomed to die in the dark shadows, why would she want to see the sun shine?

It is truly painful to die with this longing!

Collei lowered her head; now she only hoped that Ye Xi, who helped her heal the devil's scale disease and relieve her pain, would be safe.

[Ding~]

[Full analysis: The damage caused by black inflammation can be healed by [Primary Treatment].]

[Tip: You can use the power of the abyss to control the Black Flame Serpent to gain adaptability [Black Flame]!]

Ye Xi was very happy with the notification sound in his head.

Unexpectedly, the power of the abyss has such a function!

Thinking of this, he reached out and gently caressed Collei's rosy cheek.

"Don't get close to me!"

Collei shook her head desperately, trying to back away, but there was already a solid wall behind her.

"Cole, don't be afraid."

Ye Xi wiped away the tears from the corners of the girl's eyes and said, "These flames can't hurt me, so give me your hand."

"Eh?"

Collei looked up, found Ye Xi's pupils again, and gradually calmed down.

That warm hand made her feel extremely comfortable and dependent.

It's like being on the bank in the afternoon and on the grass at night.

She felt that as long as Ye Xi was there, she would no longer be afraid!

She obediently took her hand, which was burning with black flames, from her chest.

"Good."

Ye Xi used the [Forced Calm] ability and then extended his hand toward Hei Yan.

The black flame was extremely aggressive and immediately leaped onto his hand like a tarantula.

In an instant, a sharp pain surged.

[Tip: Emotions are very volatile, and the effect of [Forced Calm] is activated by default.]

[Tip: [Primary Treatment] has an analgesic effect; the pain decreases and treatment continues.]

[Tip: Analyzing [Black Flame], please be patient...]

A series of notifications sounded in Ye Xi's mind.

Fortunately, the primary treatment had an analgesic effect, and Ye Xi felt much more relaxed.

Collei almost screamed when she saw the sudden attack of Hei Yan.

But after Hei Yan jumped onto Ye Xi's hand, it didn't spread; instead, it seemed to be fixed, which made her feel a little relieved.

However, Ye Xi slightly frowned, with a persistent expression of pain, suddenly filled with worry and self-blame.

"Master…"

Ye Xi smiled and comforted her: "Don't worry."

As he spoke, the pain caused by the black inflammation suddenly disappeared.

[Tip: Analysis is complete.]

[Acquire adaptability [Black Flame], unlock ability - [Black Flame]]

[Use the power of the abyss to unleash [Black Flame]!]

Ye Xi tried to control the flame in his hand.

Sure enough, the flame seemed to be a part of him; as long as he used his consciousness, he could control it.

With a thought, Hei Yan disappeared in an instant.

"Eh!?"

Collei was stunned.

She widened her eyes and searched for Hei Yan's shadow on Ye Xi's body, but there was nothing as far as she could see.

"How can this be? Is the black flame going to extinguish?!"

This has never happened before!

Once the black flame burns, the living being must be completely burned to a crisp before it can be extinguished!

But what happened in front of me happened again!

Ye Xi grasped Collei's small hand and commanded with his mind.

Immediately, all the black inflammation in Collei's body spread to his hands and then disappeared into the surface of his skin.

"Okay, then you don't need to be afraid of black flames in the future; they are already mine."

"Incredible…"

Collei's eyes were filled with stars, and this feeling of ups and downs made her little heart beat nonstop.

She did not expect that the devil's scale disease that tormented her for more than ten years would be cured, and even the most dangerous black inflammation would be eliminated!

Thinking of Ye Xi's gentle and comforting voice just now, and reaching out to her again, she felt very moved.

This warm feeling made her want to dedicate everything to Ye Xi!

"Burned hands! I'll bandage them!"

"I learned a lot about bandages in the forest!"

Ye Xi shook his head: "I can heal myself, you know…"

Saying this, he used the [Primary Treatment] ability.

Immediately, a light green fluorescence enveloped his hand, and the scars on it healed immediately, at a speed visible to the naked eye.

Collei's eyes were filled with disbelief.

This kind of thing was simply beyond her comprehension!

A kind of yearning blossomed in her heart!

This kind of ability is not the excellent medical skill she desires the most!?

In a short time, the burned skin would be revitalized.

"Okay, don't worry."

The events of the day made Ye Xi feel a bit tired.

After lying down, Collei posted beside him.

After what happened now, she couldn't sleep anymore.

Seeing Collei's wide eyes looking at him all the time, Ye Xi sighed softly: "Earlier, Ayexia and the others received a God Eye when they woke up."

"You already have one; maybe you can get another. What attributes do you want?"

"Is there such a thing?"

Collei was no longer surprised, as she had seen many surprising things about Ye Xi.

But this question really troubled her.

"I want a god eye of the fire element… that's the color of Amber."

"Well…"

Ye Xi laughed: "It seems I've been defeated by Amber?"

"Hey! No! Amber is a girl; it's not what the master thinks!"

Collei was afraid that Ye Xi would misunderstand, so she hurriedly explained: "The Master is the most important existence in my heart!"

Ye Xi couldn't help but laugh at the girl's nervous expression.

"I know about Amber, but still, people care."

"Collei, everything about you belongs to me."

"Since you're worried about Amber, I'll take her home when we reach Mondstadt."

Collei blushed upon hearing this and couldn't help but imagine the scene of Ye Xi with Amber.

"But Amber seems to be on good terms with Eula too."

"The master also knows about Miss Eula?"

Collei did not expect Ye Xi to know them so well: "Mrs. Eula is often mentioned in Amber's letters, and I feel that they are very close…"

When a good friend has other friends, it's inevitable for people to feel a little jealous.

However, Collei felt she could not compare to Eula, no matter what happened.

"It's not easy to do. If Amber gave me a green hat and pretended to be Eula in my heart, then it wouldn't work."

"Then take Eula home too."

"That way, we would all be on equal terms."

"Just call it [Anti-Green-Hat Agency]."

"Pff…"

Collei couldn't help but laugh: "I feel like what the master said is like a cold joke from the disciplinary officer."

"Is it really? Hahahaha."

Ye Xi suddenly thought of the dog's head playing a homophonic tune and couldn't help but laugh.

Hearing the warm laughter around her, Collei's heart raced.

"So Master Ye Xi can be very funny."

She seemed to understand the tenderness in Ayexia's words, and now she felt very happy.

"Master… let's continue… what we just did…"

This delicate voice surprised Ye Xi: "
