Chapter 26 Gu He and Xiao Yan seize the strange fire; Yao Lao appears to support his beloved disciple.Chapter 26: Gu He and Xiao Yan Seize the Strange Fire, Yao Lao Goes Online to Support His Beloved Disciple!

Gu He dangled the Seven-Colored Small Snake, which was extremely well-behaved, clinging to Gu He’s left hand like a vine on a grape trellis.

After Gu He fed it several Scarlet Flame Pills, which had extremely complex refining processes, the Seven-Colored Small Snake let out a small burp and slipped contentedly into Gu He’s sleeve, wrapping around his wrist and falling into a deep sleep.

Gu He chuckled softly; he actually had more than just these Medicinal Pills, as well as many Heaven And Earth Treasures, but due to long-term neglect, it was somewhat difficult to take them out of his storage ring at a moment’s notice.

When he returned, he would prepare some delicious food for this miniature version of Medusa.

”Boom—”

The sound of the barrier being impacted drew closer and closer. Gu He swallowed the Medicinal Pill he had prepared earlier and walked quickly toward the Green Lotus Core Flame.

A Strange Fire is like an explosive; one careless move can cause it to suddenly erupt with destructive power.

Gu He already possessed the strength of a One-Star Dou Huang. After the power of the Medicinal Pill evaporated, forming an energy blood scab, he circulated his Dou Qi to form a protective shroud, and finally—

His palm lightly touched the Green Lotus Core Flame.

In an instant, this cluster of green flames, capable of burning a person to ashes, obediently climbed onto Gu He’s finger.

It was not at all as violent and predatory as when Medusa attempted her Breakthrough.

[Ding! ’Green Lotus Core Flame’ discovered! Does the host wish to devour it?]

Gu He decisively chose to devour it.

[Devouring Green Lotus Core Flame...]

[10%...]

[30%...]

[100%!]

...

[Ding! Green Lotus Core Flame has been devoured. Congratulations to the host for reaching the Two-Star Dou Huang Realm!]

[Ding! Successfully refined the ’Green Lotus Core Flame’!]

Gu He nodded in satisfaction and was just about to leave.

”Thud—”

The energy shroud set by Medusa was finally breached.

Gu He narrowed his eyes slightly; as expected, the first one to burst in was a youth carrying a Giant Black Ruler.

...

Xiao Yan’s eyes were fervent. As soon as he entered, his eyes darted around, searching for the Strange Fire.

However, the display stand was empty; there was no trace of the Strange Fire at all.

He even began to use his Soul perception, and yet—

He felt nothing at all.

His heart tightened, and he immediately looked toward Gu He with a piercing gaze.

This black-robed man, who possessed a slightly mysterious aura and was a rather handsome middle-aged man in his eyes.

”Have you already absorbed the Strange Fire?” he couldn’t help but ask.

Gu He gave a faint smile. ”Take a guess.”

Xiao Yan immediately clenched his fists, veins bulging.

He had searched for the Strange Fire in the desert and suffered countless hardships, only for it to be snatched away by the Gu He before him!

Gu He, seeing his reaction, was not afraid in the least.

So what if you have the Protagonist Halo from the original story?

This Strange Fire is mine to take!

A powerful Dou Huang aura suddenly poured out.

Xiao Yan was shaken by the Dou Huang pressure, and cold sweat couldn’t help but break out.

”Teacher, I might not be able to beat this guy...” Xiao Yan said to Yao Lao in his mind.

Yao Lao chuckled. ”It would be strange if you could! I don’t know what secret method or Medicinal Pill this Gu He used, but he was a Nine-Star Dou Wang the last time I saw him, and now he’s already a Two-Star Dou Huang...”

”Two-Star Dou Huang!”

”He actually promoted to Dou Huang, and reached a new Rank so quickly!” Xiao Yan was greatly shocked.

This speed was simply Heaven-Defying!

It was terrifying!

”Kid, let me handle it this time!” Yao Lao’s voice was ghostly.
