Golden-red phoenix fire descended from the sky as Chu Kuangren made his imposing entrance!
"Why are you here?"
Huo Tong and Huang Yuyi could not help being startled.
After encountering Chu Kuangren time and again, even they, however slow on the uptake, should have noticed something.
"You've been following us. Ever since we left Heavenly Merchant Ancient Star, you've been right beside us."
Huo Tong spoke in a low voice.
"Yes, and I have to thank you for collecting so many divine flames for me."
Chu Kuangren chuckled.
"So that's it. You must have learned about the Divine Flame Map's function somewhere and have been using us to find divine flames all along."
Huo Tong's expression was rather ugly. He had treated Huang Yuyi as a tool.
Yet Chu Kuangren had treated both of them as tools.
Although displeased, Huo Tong then smiled. "Chu Kuangren, your plan was good-sit back and reap the fisherman's rewards. Unfortunately, you overlooked one thing: my strength after my transformation. This time, I won't run away like before. I'll defeat you fair and square right here and show you the might of nine-flavored divine flame!"
After his transformation, Huo Tong felt stronger than ever. With Huang Yuyi beside him, his confidence suddenly swelled to bursting.
He felt that perhaps he could defeat Chu Kuangren!
Even if he could not, protecting himself should be more than manageable.
"Heh, it seems this nine-flavored divine flame has given you quite a lot of confidence."
Chu Kuangren chuckled, then raised his hand. Golden-red phoenix fire roared forth, burning toward Huo Tong.
"Your phoenix fire no longer works on me!"
Huo Tong roared, and dazzling nine-flavored divine flame surged out of him, blasting the golden-red phoenix fire apart. He had actually overcome fire with fire!
Chu Kuangren condensed his sword
