Chapter 198: Not Enough
In an instant, Han Cuiyuan's entire body was engulfed in red-gold flame.
The pain of endless burning consumed his body, and the vast, powerful martial True Qi stored within him was utterly useless against it, offering not even the faintest resistance.
Visibly to the naked eye, Han Cuiyuan's entire body turned to embers and ash bit by bit, slowly scattered by the gusting wind in the darkness of the night.
The expression of shock on his face was gradually hardening and going still.
Han Cuiyuan could not have imagined that Murong Xiaoya could be this powerful, and against the red-gold flame gnawing through him like maggots through bone, he had no recourse whatsoever.
Only death awaited him, burning in agony, leaving not a bone behind.
"To die in the midst of battle... at least I die as I should..."
Han Cuiyuan struggled to force the words out, yet from beginning to end he never once begged for mercy.
In only a few breaths, he was burned entirely to nothing by the red-gold flames. Only his heart dissolved into a blood mist, which then condensed into a thread of refined blood carrying a powerful aura and flowed into Murong Xiaoya's body.
