I'll update at night, time 005. I'll see if I can endure it. It's best to wait until tomorrow morning.
"Come." Ye Wuchen shook his head and smiled. With a wave of his hand, a large bathtub appeared in front of him. It was the one Ningxue usually used for bathing. He couldn't help but feel even more grateful for Chu Cang Ming's generosity. He'd given him such a great gift without batting an eyelid. With the God of Sword Ring, he could bring his home with him at any time.
The bathtub was quickly filled with water that Ye Wuchen had fetched from the river along the way. Ningxue impatiently opened her arms and let him carry her in. When her body submerged in the water, she let out a pleasant moan. Her face revealed an expression of enjoyment as she comfortably paddled the water.
"Wah … so comfortable. It was really, really hot just now." Ningxue smiled happily. At this moment, Oculum took off all her clothes in the blink of an eye. Her speed was several times faster than Ningxue's. Before Ye Wuchen could stop her, she was already standing there naked. Ningxue smiled and shifted her body to make room for Oculum.
Ye Wuchen had just been intimate with Yan Zhimeng a few days ago. He'd already had a taste and his resistance had dropped greatly. He didn't dare to look again after a single glance. He quickly turned his face away as blood surged through his entire body.
"Plop!" The sound of falling into the water could be heard. Tong Xin submerged her body into the bathtub and played with Ning Xue by splashing water on each other's body. Ye Wuchen finally let out a sigh of relief. He turned around and watched them play.
Looking at Ning Xue's happiness had unknowingly become one of his greatest pleasures.
"Oculum, remember to protect Cher and don't let anyone in. Do you understand?" Ye Wuchen said. He'd booked this guest room for a full ten days.
Oculum, who had always been obedient, did not nod immediately. Instead, he looked at him questioningly. Ningxue asked the question on their minds, "Brother, where are you going?"
Ye Wuchen didn't hide anything. With a relaxed expression, he said, "This place is very close to the Apocalypse Volcano. I will make a trip there and come back after I get what I want. Maybe two or three days. Maybe he'll come back tomorrow. "
Oculum and Ningxue became anxious at the same time. Ningxue grabbed the edge of the bathtub with both hands and said hurriedly, "Brother, take me there. I want to go with you."
"But it's very hot there …"
"I'm not afraid of the heat, not at all. I don't want to be separated from my brother for so long. He said that no matter where he goes, he won't leave me behind. " Ningxue shook her head forcefully. Oculum also looked at him with a determined gaze. He would not let him go to such a dangerous place alone.
Although he had guessed that this might happen, Ye Wuchen still smiled helplessly. "Alright … I really don't know what to do with you two little girls. However, you must listen to me when the time comes."
Ningxue nodded forcefully. Only then did she feel at ease and submerge her body into the water again. She comfortably enjoyed the coolness of the water and the smoothness of Oculum's body.
In order to not let Ningxue suffer from the heat, Ye Wuchen waited until the sun was not so strong in the afternoon. Then, he left the inn with Ningxue and Oculum after eating. He didn't even ask for the remaining nine days' rent. Compared to the pile of silver that Wang Wenshu had given him, that amount of money was not even a drop in the bucket.
Although the sun had already set, the heat from Volcano Annihilation was still unbearable for Ningxue. After walking for a short while, beads of sweat appeared on her forehead again. However, she didn't cry out because of the heat. Instead, she quietly lay in his arms.
After leaving Flame Dragon City, Ye Wuchen and Tong Xin no longer walked slowly as they looked at the red light in the south that even the sky was dyed red. Instead, they sped up and moved forward quickly. According to Ye Wuchen's calculations, if they sped up, they could reach their destination in less than an hour.
The faster they walked, the more they could feel the rising temperature. Very few people set foot in the south of Flame Dragon City. After walking for a short while, Ningxue was already drenched in hot sweat. She kept wiping her sweat with her hands, but she gritted her teeth and refused to cry out because she didn't want her brother to worry.
A stream of water suddenly fell from the sky. It brought with it a refreshing coolness and drenched her whole body. "Are you feeling better?" Ye Wuchen lowered his head and asked worriedly. The temperature here should be more than 40 degrees Celsius. It was as if they were in a scorching desert with a scorching sun in the sky.
"Yes, don't worry about me, Brother. I'm really not afraid of the heat." Ningxue nodded and then shook her head.
Ye Wuchen placed the waterskin in her hands. "Drink more water. Don't worry, we'll be there soon."
Half an hour later, they had covered more than half of the distance. At this moment, a huge courtyard decorated with fiery red bricks and tiles appeared in their sight. Ye Wuchen was slightly surprised. He wondered who would make a home here. However, when he saw the two words "Nangong" hanging on the crimson door, he immediately understood.
As one of the four major magic and martial families in Tenryū Province, the Nangong family majored in fire magic. The magic of the Tianchen Continent was different from the western magic that Ye Wuchen knew. When magic was released in the Tianchen Continent, there was no need for incantations, so-called mediums, or communication with the elements. All that was needed was the ability to control certain elements and time. Because of that, magic cultivation here didn't require rigid textbooks. Instead, one could freely create and change magic skills that suited or suited one's preferences according to one's ability to manipulate the elements. The stronger the magic cultivation, the stronger the ability to control and the shorter the time needed to condense the elements. Generally, magic could be divided into low-level, mid-level, and high-level magic. The powerful ones were also known as forbidden spells.
Similarly, the stronger the magic, the more elements needed, and the longer the time needed to condense it. Therefore, if a magician was given enough time, they could even defeat an opponent of a higher level.
The Nangong Family was located the southernmost among the four great families of magic and martial arts. It was in response to the word "south" in Nangong. It was not until now that Ye Wuchen realized how far south this "south" was. This place was close to the Apocalypse Volcano, and the fire elements were dense and active. It was indeed the best place to practice fire magic.
As far as he knew, Lin Yan, who was known as the "number one fire magician in Tianlong City", was also a disciple of the Nangong family. He stayed in the Nangong family until he was in his forties before returning to Tianlong City. When he was in his fifties, he finally reached the Heaven rank that he had always dreamed of. Although he was known as one of the fire magicians, Ye Wuchen believed that the low-profile Nangong family definitely had a super strong person who could surpass him.
Ye Wuchen did not stop. He went around the Nangong family and continued forward. When the water on Ningxue dried up, he would sprinkle some water on her so that she would not feel so uncomfortable.
After walking for another ten minutes, the heat in the air caused the scenery in front of them to distort slightly. Ningxue started to breathe heavily. The hot air she exhaled hit Ye Wuchen's face.
"Cher, bear with it a little longer. We will reach in a little while. Big Brother has a way to make you not feel hot, "Ye Wuchen said as he continuously poured the water from the God of Swords Ring on her body.
Ningxue nodded and leaned her body closer to him.
There were rocks everywhere, and it was extremely desolate. There were no plants, but there were occasionally traces of people stepping on them. Sometimes, they would accidentally kick a few rocks, and when they collided with each other, they would actually burst into flames.
The sky above them was no longer blue. Instead, it was a light red color that completely covered the blue. In the distance, there was a mountain that was not too tall. However, the entire mountain was red, as if it was burning. Even the surroundings of the mountain and the sky above the mountain were red. This place was still a few miles away from the Volcano of Apocalypse, but it was so hot even though it was several miles away. Even the most active volcanoes on Earth can't be compared to it.
The hottest place in the Tianchen continent, the truly unapproachable Lava Purgatory.
No one should be near such a place, but … A figure suddenly appeared in front of Ye Wuchen. The figure slowly walked over. When he saw that person's face, Ye Wuchen was stunned. When that person saw the three of them, he was also surprised.
"You are …?"
It was a young man in his twenties, and he had an extraordinary aura. His gaze first swept past Oculum and Ningxue, and he could not hide the surprise and shock on his face. When he saw Ye Wuchen, he was suddenly stunned. Then, he shook his head in disbelief. "You are … Is your surname Ye?"
"Brother Nangong, I am Ye Wuchen," Ye Wuchen stopped in his tracks and said with a smile. This person was the Fire Spellcaster Nangong Zhen, who had been defeated by Cold Cliffs in the competition. Ye Wuchen had taken note of this person before and had a deep impression of him.
When Nangong Zhen heard this, he was instantly excited. However, he quickly hid it and said passionately, "So you really are Ye Gongzi from the Celestial Dragon City. It's really … a pleasure to meet you. Back then in the Celestial Dragon City, I was fortunate enough to witness Ye Gongzi's glory. I was almost shocked. I did not expect to meet you here … Oh? How does Ye Gongzi know that my surname is Nangong? "
"I, Ye Wuchen, have also seen Brother Nangong's glory that day. It is difficult to forget such an outstanding person."
Nangong Zhen laughed heartily. "Ye Gongzi is too kind. How can my insignificant demonic techniques be worthy of Ye Gongzi's attention? But … Why are you here? And … "He used his gaze to gesture at Ningxue and Oculum. He could not understand bringing two children to a place like this.
Ye Wuchen did not hide anything and said bluntly, "We are preparing to go to the Skyend Volcano."
"The Skyend Volcano?" Nangong Zhen was shocked and tried to dissuade him. "You cannot go to that place. Not to mention going up the mountain, there are not many ordinary people who can reach the foot of the mountain. If you step on the mountain, you might even be turned into ashes. Ye Gongzi, you must not go there! "
Even in the Nangong Family, only a few of his grandfathers had the ability to reach the peak. It was impossible to get close to the center of the volcano. According to what he knew, although Ye Wuchen's abilities were strong, he was not at the Spiritual Level. It would be good if he could stay at the foot of the volcano for a while.
But immediately, a shocking discovery made him secretly shocked in his heart.
Although they were still far from the Skyend Volcano, the temperature was close to what ordinary people could endure. In this temperature, ordinary people would definitely be sweating profusely and feel dizzy. Even breathing would be difficult. Even Nangong Zhen, who had an affinity with the fire element, felt suffocated and was drenched in sweat. Other than the white-haired girl, Ye Wuchen and the black-clothed girl did not seem to be in any discomfort. Their expressions were calm, and there was not even a drop of sweat on their bodies.
How could he not be shocked?
