Two Fallen Heart Flames
Su Qian's previously calm expression suddenly changed, and her cloudy eyes became extremely sharp as she looked at Xiao Yu.
The dark golden flame in Xiao Yu's palm flickered slowly as he looked at Su Qian and said, "Great Elder, my flame tells me that the eruption point of the Fallen Heart Flame is approaching, and no matter what method we use, we cannot stop it from erupting!"
Su Qian frowned and asked, "Then what's your proposed solution?"
The elder in yellow robes looked at Xiao Yu and said, "If we don't stop it, are we supposed to help it erupt?"
Xiao Yu suddenly laughed and said, "This elder is right. It's better to guide than to block. Since we can't stop it, let it erupt prematurely!"
Xiao Yu paused for a moment before continuing, "If we trigger its eruption beforehand, we can control the danger caused by the Fallen Heart Flame within our means. Only then can we truly resolve this problem!"
Su Qian sighed and said, "If it erupts earlier, minimizing its damage range, that's certainly what we want to see. However, the very foundation of the Jia Nan Academy's Inner Academy is the Heavenly Flame Refining Qi Tower!"
"Once the Fallen Heart Flame erupts, the Heavenly Flame Refining Qi Tower will inevitably become a pile of ruins. In that case, will my Jia Nan Academy, which has existed in this Black Corner Region for so many years, end in my hands?" Su Qian said, a hint of desolation in his eyes.
A hint of desolation appeared in the eyes of the elders beside him. They naturally did not want Jia Nan Academy to end like this, but they did not want the thousands of teachers and students in the Inner Academy to perish under the Fallen Heart Flame!
The Fallen Heart Flame can be said to be the foundation of the Jia Nan Academy's standing in the Black Corner Region for hundreds or even thousands of years.
However, the Fallen Heart Flame Fallen Heart Flame is also a double-edged sword. At this moment, while it is giving power to the Jia Nan Academy, it is also slowly destroying the Jia Nan Academy!
In the end, it was Great Elder Su Qian who made the decision. The mysterious dean of the Jia Nan Academy had not appeared for many years, and now Great Elder Su Qian was the only one in charge!
After pondering for a moment, Su Qian looked at Xiao Yu and asked, "What exactly do you mean by an early outbreak? What do you need us to do?"
Xiao Yu glanced at the elders around him and said, "Find a suitable opportunity to weaken the Inner Academy's seal on the Fallen Heart Flame. I will ask my third brother to help the Inner Academy deal with this Fallen Heart Flame!"
One of the elders immediately said, "Your third brother? Could it be Xiao Yan? He has only just entered the Dou Ling realm. Even as the Great Elder, he wouldn't dare to easily touch the Fallen Heart Flame, which has already developed sentience. How could Xiao Yan do it?"
Xiao Yu simply shook his head and said, "You don't need to worry about that. I can inform Third Brother at the appropriate time. Similarly, you can also sense that the Fallen Heart Flame seems to be afraid of the flame in my hand. I can assist you then, so you can rest assured!"
Upon hearing Xiao Yu's words, the other elders all wore thoughtful expressions, while Su Qian gave Xiao Yu a deep look before saying, "Our Inner Academy elders still need to discuss this decision. For now, let's seal it away. How about you stay in the Heavenly Flame Refining Qi Tower for a while?"
Su Qian looked at Xiao Yu, and Xiao Yu nodded in agreement.
After reinforcing the seal once more, Su Qian led Xiao Yu away from here.
Su Qian led Xiao Yu directly back to his study, leaving only the two of them in the quiet room.
Su Qian chuckled and said, "Little guy, judging from your expression, it seems you have something you want to tell me, right?"
Xiao Yu smiled faintly, "The Great Elder's eyes are indeed sharp. Indeed, I have something I need to say to the Great Elder privately, and I hope the Great Elder will consider it!"
Su Qian raised an eyebrow slightly, looked at Xiao Yu and chuckled, "Speak, let this old man hear it too!"
Xiao Yu said to Su Qian, "Is the Great Elder worried that even if the eruption of the Fallen Heart Flame doesn't cause much damage to the Inner Academy Inner Academy, it will still cripple its strength and might even lead to the Jia Nan Academy being gradually assimilated by the Black Corner Region?"
Su Qian looked up at the gloomy sky outside the window and sighed softly, "This Fallen Heart Flame has been in the Jia Nan Academy for so many years. Jia Nan Academy has always treated the Fallen Heart Flame like a pet, forgetting that the Fallen Heart Flame, having developed sentience, has already become an individual!"
"Now, the Fallen Heart Flame is no longer powerful enough to restrain Jia Nan Academy, so its unleashing is only natural!"
Xiao Yu laughed and said, "Great Elder, there's no need to worry so much. I just used that flame to investigate and received some good news!"
"Oh?" Su Qian turned to look at Xiao Yu with interest.
Xiao Yu continued, "I'm afraid even the Great Elder doesn't know that there are actually two Fallen Heart Flame beneath this black hole!"
"Two Fallen Heart Flame?" Su Qian's pupils suddenly widened, and he exclaimed in shock, his eyes filled with utter horror!
They originally thought one Heavenly Flames would be enough of a headache, but now there are two?
Xiao Yu comforted him, "Great Elder, there's no need to worry so much. This might actually be a good thing for the Jia Nan Academy!"
After slowly recovering, Su Qian looked at Xiao Yu and said with a wry smile, "Two Heavenly Flames, how can this be a good thing for the academy?"
Su Qian immediately asked with some doubt, "How can there be two Heavenly Flames coexisting down here? This is unbelievable!"
Xiao Yu then explained, "There are indeed two Heavenly Flames inside that black hole, but one is Fallen Heart Flame that has developed sentience, while the other is Fallen Heart Flame that has not yet taken shape!"
A sudden thought flashed through Su Qian's mind, and she looked at Xiao Yu with inexplicable excitement, asking, "You... you mean, beneath the Heavenly Flame Refining Qi Tower, there's an unformed Fallen Heart Flame?"
Xiao Yu nodded, it seemed that Su Qian understood what Xiao Yu was talking about!
If a nascent Fallen Heart Flame could be subdued by the Jia Nan Academy, it could be used by the Jia Nan Academy indefinitely, which would be far better than the current abundance of Fallen Heart Flame.
"Great, great! If this is true, then Jia Nan Academy will no longer have to worry about the Heavenly Flame Refining Qi Tower!" Su Qian suddenly laughed loudly.
Su Qian looked at Xiao Yu and said, "If that's the case, do you know if Xiao Yan has a way to subdue the Fallen Heart Flame that has developed sentience?"
Xiao Yu thought for a moment and said, "I'm afraid I'll have to go back and ask about that!"
Su Qian nodded and smiled, "Alright, then go back and ask now. If this matter can be resolved, you and Xiao Yan will be great contributors to the Jia Nan Academy. If you need anything in the future, just call out!"
Xiao Yu said, "Thank you Great Elder!" After saying that, Xiao Yu turned and left.
Watching Xiao Yu's departing figure, Su Qian stroked his white beard and said, "To have such a genius is truly a blessing for the Jia Nan Academy. As for the two Heavenly Flames, we need to inform the other Inner Academy elders about this. After the Strong Ranking Competition ends, we must begin to address the matter of the Heavenly Flame Refining Qi Tower!"
