Inner World!

Two months have passed since Zhu Zhuqing left the Inner Circle.

During this period, the overall development remained unchanged without any major deviations.

All the Heavenly Prodigy talents of the Dao Alliance have disappeared.

With Wangquan Baye Sword Heart Shatter and Li Quzhuo's legs crippled, everything seemed to be proceeding as originally planned.

But as the butterfly effect eventually manifests, the story within the Inner Circle has ultimately taken a turn.

"Master, it's time to take your medicine."

Jin Renfeng pushed open Dongfang Guyue's door and carefully walked in carrying a bowl of medicine, as if afraid of spilling the medicine and wasting it.

"Renfeng, you've arrived."

Dongfang Guyue was nothing like he was two years ago. Although he was sickly back then, he was nowhere near as emaciated as he is now.

He looked like an old man who was about to die.

"Master, come here and I'll help you take your medicine."

Jin Renfeng's eyes flashed with a hint of pleasure when he saw Dongfang Guyue's current appearance.

The more humble he was when he knelt down, the more exhilarated he felt when he looked at Dongfang Guyue.

However, he concealed it well, and dared not make a move until he was completely certain that Dongfang Guyue was incapable of resisting.

After all, he was also afraid that Dongfang Guyue might suddenly slap him to death.

"No, no need. Where is Huaizhu? I... I have something I want to tell her."

Dongfang Guyue was now breathing heavily as she spoke.

It looks like it's about to run out of fuel.

"Junior sister went to the Huaishui Bamboo Pavilion earlier and probably won't be back for a while. Master, if there's anything you need, just tell me directly and I'll inform junior sister later."

Jin Renfeng looked at the hand resting on his wrist and could clearly sense the faint pulse of Dongfang Guyue.

A photo of someone about to die!

The thought flashed through Jin Renfeng's mind.

Then an undisguised excitement appeared in his eyes.

Dongfang Guyue let out a long sigh, but it looked as if she was about to exhale her last breath.

"I'm dying!"

Dongfang Guyue's voice became extremely weak.

"No, Master, you'll be fine as long as you take the medicine."

Jin Renfeng still dared not act rashly, and instead said in a choked voice.

"I know you want to control the Pure Yang Flame, but the Pure Yang Flame is not as simple as you think. After I leave, Qin Lan and the others will continue to fuel the flame for you, so you don't need to worry about summoning flames in the future."

Dongfang Guyue looked at Jin Renfeng with eyes full of emotion, as if she were entrusting him with a future life, without a trace of acting skill.

"I understand, Master. I will definitely take good care of my junior sisters and the Shenhuo Mountain Villa from now on."

As if sensing something, Jin Renfeng knelt down with a thud, his eyes instantly turning red, and large tears fell down his face.

"It's good that you understand. Huaizhu and Qin Lan are in your care now."

Dongfang Guyue watched Jin Renfeng kneeling on the ground, the light in her eyes gradually dimmed until her breath completely disappeared.

"Master, don't worry, I will definitely take good care of my junior sisters!"

Jin Renfeng quickly looked up, knelt down and moved to the bedside. He froze when he saw Dongfang Guyue was still dead with her eyes wide open.

Then, as if stimulated by something, his body began to tremble, and his waist gradually bent over.

Its head was pressed tightly against the ground, as if it were seeing Dongfang Guyue off on her final journey.

"Master~ Waaaaaah~"

"Hehehe~ Hehehe~ Hahaha~"

Jin Renfeng's crying gradually turned into laughter, and then into maniacal laughter.

He also straightened up.

"Old man, do you know how long I've been waiting for this day?"

Jin Renfeng stared at Dongfang Guyue's eyes, which had lost all their luster, with a ferocious expression.

His laughter was extremely bizarre and manic.

Over the past two years, he has painstakingly cultivated and secretly plotted, even personally serving Dongfang Guyue in order to lower her guard.

This service lasted for two whole years!

Even to avoid Dongfang Guyue's retaliation before his death, he did not reveal the slightest covetousness for the Pure Yang Flame before Dongfang Guyue's passing.

He was afraid that Dongfang Guyue would fight to the death and Mutual Destruction him.

Now it's all over, Dongfang Guyue is dead!

Then he would no longer need to worry about his life being taken away at any moment!

Moreover, Dongfang Guyue had only just died, and his body was still warm.

As long as it's done while it's still fresh, there's still time.

Although Jin Renfeng's body was still trembling and his expression was extremely frantic, his hands moved without slowing down at all.

He used his fingernails to cut two huge wounds on his wrists.

At the same time, he began to expel his own blood using Blood Exchange Secret Method.

The Dongfang Spiritual Blood is priceless; how could we possibly waste it?

Only after Jin Renfeng had performed the Blood Exchange Secret Method did he make a cut on Dongfang Guyue's wrist.

Soon, with the blessing of the Blood Exchange Secret Method, a stream of thick blood flowed from Dongfang Guyue's wrist and flowed into Jin Renfeng's body through the magic power.

"I sensed it. This is the power of Pure Yang Flame, this is the Dongfang Spiritual Blood."

I am the one most deserving of Pure Yang Flame in this world!

Jin Renfeng spoke as if he were insane, his face extremely pale from the blood he had been drinking, but he felt no discomfort whatsoever, and even felt refreshed.

In the end, after Jin Renfeng drained all the spiritual blood from Dongfang Guyue's body, his whole body turned as pale as if it had been turned one shade lighter.

After all, how much blood could an old man have given to Jin Renfeng?

Without the help of the Leech Demon, those who have performed the Blood Exchange Secret Method would never be able to regenerate blood.

This will result in Jin Renfeng being anemic from now on.

"Pure Yang Flame, Dongfang Spiritual Blood, I have finally waited for you."

Jin Renfeng looked at his body, sensing the blood flowing through him, and laughed maniacally.

"Pure Yang Flame, give it to me!"

Having obtained the Dongfang Spiritual Blood, Jin Renfeng's greatest desire was to condense a Pure Yang Flame.

However, no matter how hard he tried, and how he stimulated his blood according to the spell to activate the Pure Yang Flame, he could not summon the Pure Yang Flame.

"Impossible! Something must be wrong!"

Jin Renfeng stared at his hands in disbelief, for everything he had arranged had been flawless.

But why, why didn't he become someone who could wield the Eastern Spiritual Fire after obtaining the Dongfang Spiritual Blood?

Jin Renfeng seemed to be going mad as he continuously channeled his magical power.

He couldn't believe it. Why couldn't he unleash the Pure Yang Flame when they both had the same Dongfang Spiritual Blood?

That's not fair!

"Something must have gone wrong!"

Jin Renfeng seemed to be going crazy, constantly brainstorming.

In the area they were paying attention to, Jin Renfeng's body began to gradually turn black.

As the founder of the Shenhuo Mountain Villa, how could someone who escaped from the Dongfang Secret Realm possibly trust Jin Renfeng?

So before he died, he added something to his blood. If Jin Renfeng didn't do what he suspected, then everything would be fine.

But if Jin Renfeng did something that would make him die with regrets, then he felt that when he left, he would take everything Jin Renfeng had with him on his travels.

Thump.

Even on his deathbed, Jin Renfeng didn't understand why all of this was happening; he had done everything according to plan!

Kneeling before Dongfang Guyue, and looking into Dongfang Guyue's unclosed eyes, Jin Renfeng understood something.

"Was all of this your scheme, Master?"

I was indeed too young.

Jin Renfeng looked at Dongfang Guyue and smiled bitterly before collapsing to the ground, instantly dying and losing all life force.
