True Qi Art · Immortal Fire
The fight ends tomorrow. Bonus update!
Chapter 190: Glaze
Immortal Fire, an art that Joy-in-Death Tower could master only after achieving symbiosis with a fire seed, a killing move that had made Lu Yunsheng of Heavenly Mountain suffer and remain constantly wary afterward, suddenly bared its sharp fangs before the boy.
