Winning Favor

The masterless deep-blue flame flickered uneasily, as though mourning Han Feng's death.

"That's Han... Han Feng's Heavenly Flame!"

"Han Feng is finished."

"Who would've thought that the famed Medicine Emperor of the Black-Corner Region would fall today!"

The sight before them left everyone present feeling as though it were unreal.

Han Feng had actually died right before their eyes!

And he had been killed by someone at the Dou Zun level!

If Han Feng's teacher, Venerable Yao, learned of this, everyone present today would likely suffer along with him.

After all, none of them dared speculate on Venerable Yao's temperament. If he flew into a rage and attacked them, they would not even have a chance to flee.

A battle between two Dou Zuns of the same level could even plunge the entire Black-Corner Region into utter chaos.

"The fifteenth-ranked Sea Heart Flame on the Heavenly Flame Ranking... you're mine now."

Xie Tianxiao ignored them. With a casual grab, he drew the deep-blue flame into his palm.

"System, how many days will it take to devour this Heavenly Flame?"

Feeling the scorching heat radiating from the Sea Heart Flame in his hand, Xie Tianxiao asked inwardly.

Ding!

"Heavenly Earth Spirit Object detected!"

Ding!

"This unusual flame has undergone a second devouring. Required time: eighteen days!"

Several mechanical-sounding voices suddenly rang out in Xie Tianxiao's mind.

"About half a month. Compared to last time, this is considerably less."

Xie Tianxiao nodded slightly, then stopped paying attention to the system and tossed the Sea Heart Flame into his Storage Ring.

He intended to devour it after reaching Jia Nan Academy, as he still had matters to handle.

"Listen. I have something I need you to do."

Xie Tianxiao swept an indifferent gaze over everyone present and spoke.

"Please give your orders, sir.
