Not only that, but there were also deep blue flames burning on the surface of the fist force.
It was obvious that this spirit fire was even more powerful than Ye Zhuangya's.
Looking at his opponent's incoming fist force, Linlong casually countered it with his palm.
The seemingly casual palm force was encircled by golden flames that seemed to be burning metal.
Ye Hongyi's heart skipped a beat when he saw the spirit fire, even though he was 100% confident.
The two forces collided, and Ye Hongyi staggered a few steps back. Linlong, who was on the other side, did the same.
The two seemed to be evenly matched, but Linlong was clearly stronger than Ye Hongyi. This was because Linlong still had two other spirit fires and the extremely powerful sword technique that he had just used. Ye Hongyi would not be Linlong's match if he had used them.
Most importantly, Linlong had clearly recovered his strength. Otherwise, it would be impossible for him to exchange blows with Ye Hongyi so leisurely.
Wasn't there still quite a bit of time left? Why had Linlong recovered his strength? This situation caused Ye Hongyi to be astonished.
It must be known that the seal had been triggered by a powerful runic array.
Could Linlong have some way to remove the seal? Ye Hongyi thought to himself.
If that was not the case, there was no other explanation.
"Teacher Ye Hongyi, do you still want to spar?" Linlong smiled when he saw the bewildered Ye Hongyi.
If it was not for Ye Hongyi, he would not have been so courteous. He would have beaten Ye Hongyi to the ground in one or two moves. After all, Ye Hongyi had helped him in the square.
Although Linlong was arrogant, he was someone who knew how to repay kindness.
It was indeed as Ye Hongyi had expected. Linlong had been trying to remove the seal with the mystic technique he had used previously, and he finally succeeded, allowing him to use all his strength.
It was also because of this that he had stood in the open and allowed Ye Hongyi to find him so easily.
"No need." Ye Hongyi shook his head helplessly.
"Mm, alright then. See you again." Linlong smiled faintly when he heard Ye Hongyi's words. He then turned around and sped forward.
Ye Hongyi shook his head helplessly as he watched Linlong's figure disappear before his eyes.
Although he really wanted to make Linlong stay, what else could he do? Linlong's strength was clearly stronger than his. Coupled with the fact that he had just run a long distance and exhausted a lot of his Xuan Qi, he was no match for Linlong at all.
Therefore, even though he wanted to keep him here, he had no choice but to make such a choice.
Moreover, he could tell that the other party didn't want to make things difficult for him. Otherwise, he wouldn't have left just like that.
"Fine." After a while, Ye Hongyi let out a long sigh.
For some reason, he suddenly felt that there was no need to pursue Yang Jian's death. Perhaps this was Yang Jian's fate. Yang Jian asked for it.
After a while, two figures appeared behind Ye Hongyi. They were Song Dongming and Su Cai, who had rushed over after seeing the signal.
When they saw Ye Hongyi just standing there without Linlong by his side, they could not help but ask anxiously, "Instructor Ye, where's Linlong?"
"I'm no match for him. He's already gone." Ye Hongyi sighed.
"However, didn't you say that the seal would only last for four hours? It hasn't even been four hours yet," Su Cai said in confusion.
"Indeed, it hasn't been two hours yet. Linlong used some unknown method to remove the seal," Ye Hongyi said.
"What? Linlong can actually remove the seal himself?" Song Dongming could not help but exclaim.
"That's right." Ye Hongyi nodded.
"However, even if he can remove the seal, he was so heavily injured and exhausted. How could he be a match for you, Instructor Ye?" Su Cai said doubtfully.
"The truth is that not only did he remove the seal, but he also recovered most of his strength," Ye Hongyi said with a bitter smile.
"How did Linlong do it?"
Song Dongming and Su Cai were both astonished once again.
"Just who is this Linlong? How does he have so many tricks up his sleeve?"
Song Dongming and Su Cai exclaimed repeatedly when they recalled the strength and tricks Linlong had displayed in the plaza.
It was already very heaven-defying for most people to have a single trick up their sleeves. Linlong, on the other hand, had all sorts of tricks, and they were all very powerful. They could not help but sigh in amazement.
Su Cai suddenly remembered something and told Ye Hongyi and Song Dongming what Ye Zhuangya had just told him.
When they heard that the person who'd stolen the spiritual fire wasn't human, Ye Hongyi and Song Dongming couldn't help but look at each other in dismay. Linlong's strength had once again refreshed their understanding of him.
"I think we should give up. If Linlong stole the spiritual fire, then so be it," Song Dongming said dejectedly.
Even though he couldn't accept the fact that his Fire of the Heart had been snatched away and that the genius disciples of the academy had been killed by the other party, what else could they do given how strong the other party was? Most importantly, they were all injured and exhausted right now. They were no match for Lin Long at all.
"I agree." Su Cai nodded as well.
With that, the two of them shifted their gazes to Ye Hongyi's face.
"So be it. We give up." Ye Hongyi sighed again, then said, "Let's hurry back and search for Instructor Ye Zhuangya, Murong Xue, and the others."
They were quite far from the plaza, so the rune formation's collapse wouldn't affect them too much. However, the place where Murong Xue and the others had been was extremely dangerous. It was very easy for danger to arise.
They'd just lost Yang Jian. They didn't want to lose another instructor and a genius like Murong Xue.
After exchanging a glance, the three of them sprinted madly in the direction of the plaza.
What the three of them didn't know was that in the forest to their right, a vicious beast was also sprinting in their direction.
This vicious beast was naturally the Raging Flame Beast. It was doing this because Linlong had asked it to search for Ye Zhuangya and Murong Xue.
Both of them had helped him before, and Murong Xue's maiden heart clearly belonged to him. Thus, he didn't want anything to happen to them, even if Ye Zhuangya had attacked him.
As an ancient vicious beast, the Raging Flame Beast's ability to search and rescue was many times stronger than Ye Hongyi and the others.
Thus, the reassured Linlong sprinted forward at full speed.
More than four hours later, he finally arrived at the edge of the secret realm.
It was also at this moment that a figure walked towards him from the right. It was the rune puppet he'd released to snatch the spiritual fire.
He'd wasted too much time just now, so it wasn't a surprise that the rune puppet was ahead of him.
When the rune puppet arrived in front of him, it took out the spiritual fire from its body. Linlong took it and placed it in his rune spatial ring.
With the spiritual fire in hand, Linlong was completely at ease. Then, he strode towards the dazzling light in front of him.
