Lin Li did not respond to Qi Mengdie's panic. At a time like this, no amount of verbal comfort could help. Only concrete action could put her completely at ease.

He raised his hand and snapped his fingers. Clusters of orange-red flames, each no larger than a fingernail, rapidly scattered in all directions.
