Chapter 540: You’re Truly Shameless
“This fire is truly extraordinary...”
After taking in the vast expanse of the Gobi Desert, Song You finally turned his gaze to the flames roaring at the mountain’s crater behind him.
As someone well-versed in fire techniques, he could instantly tell that even the flames at the mountain’s mouth were anything but ordinary. They were among the rare few that surpassed even the spiritual fire he meticulously cultivated.
“Hahahahaha!”
Flaming Sun True Lord erupted into hearty laughter, as bold and unrestrained as ever. He neither concealed his pride nor feigned humility, declaring outright, “This fire was born a thousand years ago during the longest seclusion of my life. It was an upheaval of the earth itself, triggered by my cultivation. Even after a thousand years, the flames have never died out.
“Instead, they have only grown stronger as the spiritual energy I gathered in my training continues to nourish them. Forget ordinary spirits and ghosts—even if the Gold Spirit Official from the Heavenly Palace’s War Division dared to step into this crater, his golden body would be reduced to molten gold!”
“You’re truly worthy of the title Fire God.”
Song You cupped his hands in respect but said no more. Without further delay, he turned and began his descent from the mountain.
His jujube-red horse followed him unwaveringly.
The calico cat hurried after them as well, but as she walked, she kept glancing back at the bearded, red-robed Fire God with a serious expression.
“That person seems really powerful!”
