Little Flame Ji (Part 1)-Extra Chapter!!

After withstanding a wave of lava, Tang Miao carried Ling Ling and flew into the sky.

The lava had already flowed down, and it was unknown Mo Fan and the others were dead or alive, but in any case, Tang Miao had done his best!

The little girl Ling Ling, seeing Tang Miao staring down, assumed he was worried about the lives of others and tried to comfort him, saying, "Natural disasters are beyond human control. You've done very well. They can only leave it to fate now..."

Tang Miao shook his head and said, "I'm not worried about them, I just sensed a very strong fire elemental energy..."

Ling Ling's lips twitched slightly...

So it turns out she was overthinking things...

"Shall we go take a look?" Ling Ling was quite interested in what Tang Miao said.

Actually, it wasn't Tang Miao who sensed the intense fire element, but rather the Snow Woman within him. Although she disliked the scorching heat, she told Tang Miao that she sensed Element Pet like him.

And there's one more thing!

That is, Element Pet of this world can share a single contract!

In other words, as long as the other party is a divinely ordained Element Pet, he can form another contract.

Upon hearing this news, Tang Miao was somewhat tempted...

After all, although he doesn't have the Fire Element, Tang Yue's fourth element will most likely Fire Element. As long as he forms a contract with Flame Ji, even if he can't use it in the future, he can still give it to Tang Yue.

As long as we pamper her like a little daughter, what's the difference between us?

Tang Miao immediately reminded Ling Ling, "Hold on tight!"

The moment he finished speaking, Tang Miao took Ling Ling and flew towards the place where he sensed the elemental aura.

The blazing sun hung high in the center of the Northern Corner of the Scorching Plains, which resembled a blazing inferno. The only towering mountain in the Northern Corner of the Scorching Plains, the Fire Pillar Mountain, was the closest to the sun. Almost no living things could be seen on the mountaintop, but some plants that needed the heat of the flames grew vigorously, covering the land on the flat-topped mountain in large swaths.

They are fiery red, like a dense carpet of maple leaves, spreading out in abundance. Not only is the scenery beautiful, but there is also a fiery red, somewhat graceful figure floating there.

Upon seeing the other person, Tang Miao jumped down with Ling Ling in her arms.

Ling Ling was terrified! She had never seen this bright red humanoid object before. It seemed that it had come over after they came down. Moreover, it moved very strangely, its toes slightly raised and its legs suspended in mid-air, floating like a ghost between several Fire Cloud Tree that were over ten meters tall.

After the other party appeared, the Snow Woman left Tang Miao's body and floated out.

The red humanoid object paused for a moment upon seeing the Snow Woman.

"Ring~!"

Then, she suddenly spoke, though her language was somewhat difficult to understand.

"Waaaaah..."

The Snow Woman responded after the other party spoke.

Then the two Element Pet started chatting. Tang Miao wasn't particularly interested, but Ling Ling looked quite curious!

Logically, ice and fire are supposed to be incompatible, right? Shouldn't they be fighting when they meet? Why does it seem like they're not doing that at all? Instead, they're chatting casually.

After wondering for a while, Ling Ling finally asked, "Tang Miao, what are they saying?"

Although Tang Miao could understand what the Snow Woman was saying, it was only through her unique whimpering that he could understand. Otherwise, how would he know what they were talking about?

Shaking his head, Tang Miao said helplessly, "How would I know what they're talking about... I don't understand animal language."

Ling Ling pouted and said unhappily, "Isn't she your Contract Beast?"

Tang Miao shrugged and said helplessly, "But do you think I can understand her speaking speed right now?"

"..."

Just as the two were joking around, the Snow Woman floated back to Tang Miao's side.

"Waaaaah~"

"..."

The Snow Woman told Tang Miao that the person in front of him was a human who had been saved by the Old Flame Ji and had become a new guardian.

The Flame Ji hasn't been born yet, but with the arrival of this Heavenly Tribulation Fire, Flame Ji's almost ready to hatch.

She had already spoken with the guardian of the Flame Ji and convinced him to entrust the Flame Ji to "Tang Miao" for upbringing.

Upon hearing this, Tang Miao asked in disbelief, "It's that easy??"

"Eek~"

Snow Woman pouted, looking at Tang Miao, seemingly somewhat dissatisfied because of his distrust.

Tang Miao smiled awkwardly and said helplessly, "My dear daughter, it's not that Daddy doesn't believe you, it's just..."

Then, Tang Miao's voice lowered. "It's just that Dad can't believe she made me form a contract with Flame Ji like that."

After grumbling for a while, the Snow Woman, upon hearing Tang Miao's explanation, told Tang Miao that since she herself was willing to follow, what reason would someone protecting the Flame Ji have to refuse her?

The main reason is that it's uncertain whether the woman saved by this cup can protect Flame Ji. Especially after this calamity, it will inevitably attract many powerful Hunter Mage searching for treasure...

The fact that Snow Woman was raised to adulthood in just a few years shows that Tang Miao truly cares for her. So, adding Flame Ji as well wouldn't be a bad idea!

Most importantly, now that Tang Miao has obtained Flame Ji, she no longer needs to worry about anyone trying to take her away.

This is, after all, the last Flame Ji in the world, and finding her a good home is this woman's greatest wish.

Of course, this was also thanks to the Snow Woman, who was also Element Pet, for her help in the negotiations. Otherwise, even if Tang Miao was exceptionally talented, this woman wouldn't have handed over Flame Ji. After all, she was also afraid—would the other party really treat Flame Ji well?

What if I sell it and then go research it?

She was, after all, a human being, and she understood the nature of greedy people.

A moment later... the Flame Witch led Tang Miao, the Snow Woman, and Ling Ling to a certain place. Then, she plucked the Fire Tribulation Fruit, held it in her hands, and with a hint of reluctance and tenderness, she gently blew a breath of green Fire Tribulation Fruit...

As she exhaled, Tang Miao clearly felt that she was expending a great deal of energy... At the same time, the incredibly hard outer shell of the Fire Tribulation Fruit suddenly cracked open, and a small piece of it bounced up slightly and fell to the ground.

Inside the shell, a tiny, miniature arm stretched out. The creature inside was clearly eager to see the outside world, its arm flailing wildly, trying to smash the shell that was blocking its way.

That forearm was probably smaller than one of Tang Miao's fingers, but it was in the form of a flame, as faint as a candle flame, and it felt like a slight breath could blow it out.

A moment later, the little creature inside hatched. This special life form, whose entire delicate infant body was composed of faint flames, seemed to have exceptionally strong energy. After hatching, it picked up the fragments of the Fire Tribulation Fruit and began to gnaw on them, just like a little squirrel!

With tiny arms and legs, and a round, chubby little body, she's as delicate and miniature as a porcelain doll... just like the Snow Woman I first saw! However, these two Element Pet differ in that one is covered in ice, while the other is covered in flames...

Flame Ji was born on a Star Language Giant Tree in a fiery basin in this vast desert. The world is vast and all things flourish, but they slightly defy the laws of nature and use a special way of inheritance.

Those who descend to earth in this way are the purest celestial beings, like the Snow Woman, all darlings of nature.
