"You're awake?"
Ma Xiaotao opened her eyes and discovered that she was lying on a soft, spacious bed. The furnishings of the room that greeted her eyes seemed rather familiar.
Huo Yuhao sat at the head of the bed, watching her with smiling eyes.
"Ah!"
Ma Xiaotao suddenly screamed, then clutched her hands tightly over her chest. Yet she discovered that she was neatly dressed in a dark red gown. There were no creases in it, though it was quite damp, as if it had been soaked in sweat.
"I had a maid from the hotel change your clothes. That outfit from the Sea God's Fate Matchmaking Assembly was a little too dazzling," Huo Yuhao said with a shrug. "But you sweated quite a bit while I was removing the power of resentment from your body. I couldn't change your clothes myself, so this will have to do for now."
Ma Xiaotao nodded, her face faintly flushed. She remembered everything that had happened at the Sea God's Fate Matchmaking Assembly, but Sleeping Nightmare Douluo had suppressed her consciousness, leaving her able only to watch the outside world like a spectator.
"All the restrictions the Holy Spirit Cult placed inside you are gone, along with the hidden dangers caused by absorbing those sacrificed souls during your martial soul's transformation. And congratulations-your martial soul now possesses the ultimate fire attribute. You've successfully caught up to that ancestor of yours."
"In fact, your martial soul even surpasses your ancestor's. Your dark fire phoenix martial soul not only possesses ultimate fire, but its darkness attribute is also approaching the ultimate level. If you can absorb two more hundred thousand year soul rings from darkness-attribute soul beasts, you might be able to transform that attribute into ultimate darkness as well," Huo Yuhao said.
"Thank you,"
