Just as Bai Jingshu's hand was about to touch me, a terrifying and overwhelming force erupted like a volcanic explosion, crashing down upon us!
“Bai! Jingshu!”
A voice, cold and piercing, filled with boundless fury, echoed throughout the stone chamber, causing my eardrums to ache. Li Ye Jin appeared before the altar like a specter, surrounded by swirling demonic energy, his eyes a deep crimson, resembling a Shura returned from hell!
“Li Ye Jin?!” Bai Jingshu clearly did not expect him to pursue. His face changed dramatically. “How could you...”
“Do you dare to touch someone belonging to This Seat?” Li Ye Jin did not answer. He stepped forward, and a terrifying pressure descended upon Bai Jingshu like a tangible force.
Bai Jingshu let out a muffled groan, staggering back several steps, blood trickling from the corner of his mouth. Fear flashed in his eyes but was quickly replaced by greater greed. “Li Ye Jin! You came at just the right time! Once I obtain her Heart Flame Spirit Bone, I will refine you along with it!”
With that, he activated the altar. Blood-red runes blazed brightly as countless vengeful souls howled and surged from the altar, rushing toward Li Ye Jin. At the same time, he formed hand seals, unleashing sharp sword energies aimed directly at Li Ye Jin's vital points.
Li Ye Jin snorted coldly. The demonic energy around him transformed into black chains that precisely ensnared those vengeful souls, crushing them one by one. Facing Bai Jingshu's sword energies, he did not dodge or evade; instead, he allowed several sword strikes to pierce his body as if he felt no pain at all. His gaze remained locked on Bai Jingshu, filled with icy killing intent.
“Heart Flame Spirit Bone... do you think you are worthy?” Li Ye Jin's voice was like that of someone from the depths of hell. “Do you know why Shangguan Ningxue sealed this bloodline? Do you understand what kind of apocalyptic disaster will befall you if you forcibly seize it?”
Bai Jingshu's movements faltered as if Li Ye Jin's words had stunned him.
In that brief moment of hesitation, Li Ye Jin suddenly looked at me, his expression complex and difficult to decipher. “Ye Xichen, do you think This Seat brought you here just to humiliate you and use you as a Furnace?”
I was taken aback.
“You fool!” he shouted in a low voice, an undercurrent of... impatience? seeping through. “The Heart Flame Spirit Bone within you has already begun to slowly awaken without your knowledge. If not guided and controlled, once it fully erupts, it will surely consume your soul and even trigger celestial phenomena that could lead to your destruction! This Seat has been refining your meridians with my own extreme cold essence repeatedly to suppress that power; it is called ‘Furnace,’ but it is truly ‘refinement’ and ‘sealing’! Otherwise, do you think with your meager cultivation you could have survived under This Seat's power until now?”
What?!
His words exploded in my mind like thunder! Was what he said true? He had taken me captive and tormented me day and night not merely out of anger or exploitation but rather... in an extreme way to protect me? To suppress the uncontrollable power within me?
“You...” I looked at him, my heart in turmoil.
“Li Ye Jin! Do not deceive her!” Bai Jingshu clearly heard this too; his face turned extremely ugly as he attacked even more frantically. “That power should belong to me!”
Li Ye Jin ignored him completely and suddenly turned around, pointing directly at the core of the altar! A violent force surged forth; the altar emitted a mournful cry under the unbearable strain as the blood-red runes began to shatter piece by piece!
“No—!” Bai Jingshu screamed in despair.
At that moment, Li Ye Jin looked at me with an unprecedented seriousness in his eyes. “Ye Xichen, maintain your focus! This Seat will help you take complete control of it right now!”
Control? Control what? That power... the Heart Flame Spirit Bone?
