Free Web NovelChapter 1261: Chapter 1258: Control
Bi Xia’s words shattered the atmosphere, causing Wei Ming to suppress his rising anger with a helpless shake of the head. "What do you plan to do next?"
Bi Xia shrugged, "Whatever needs to be done."
She looked down at the flame seed in her hand, pondering for a moment. Suddenly, her starry eyes glowed with a deep blue. The azure spiritual power began to infiltrate the flame seed. Her starry eyes slowly closed as her spiritual power meticulously examined the seed. The young man’s brow furrowed as the seed in his palm abruptly ignited in Wei Ming and others’ worried cries of ’be careful,’ enveloping her small hand.
The flame, originally a chaotic red, gradually turned blue. The azure spiritual power seemed to cleanse the flame, and Wei Ming, closest to Bi Xia, felt the increasing intensity most directly. On the other side, Ye Xiao instinctively backed away, realizing the flame’s heat was even more scorching than when Wang Mang had used it.
Bit by bit, the azure spiritual power receded, leaving only the small seed in Bi Xia’s palm under everyone’s gaze. The seed sprouted, flowered, and finally became a small fire-red flame. The flame, stripped of chaos, was pure and fierce, captivating the eye. However, upon closer inspection, one would find the core of the flame was an even purer azure.
Wei Ming opened his mouth in disbelief, looking at Bi Xia. "You, you actually used your own spiritual power... It’s practically a rebirth by fire! How did you do it?! I dare say no one would dare attempt this; firstly, spiritual power is not allowed!"
Bi Xia smiled playfully, raising a finger to her lips at Wei Ming, "Secret."
Wei Ming: ...
"Actually, I mainly wanted to see if there’s anything wrong with this seed, and I really discovered something," Bi Xia retracted the flame, pointing at a transparent droplet in her palm with another hand, coldly smiling. "The impurities condensed into this thing, which can control Wang Mang and Liu Kai’s spiritual power. This means, if the owner desires, Liu Kai and Wang Mang can go berserk at any time, dying from internal explosion."
"And if they explode when we are caught off guard..." Bi Xia’s face darkened, "How many people do you think would die?"
Wei Ming was stunned, his eyes widening. "Are you serious?"
"What do you think?"
With icy eyes, Wei Ming took a deep breath, nodding gravely. "I understand. I think I need to go back and contact Beijing... Don’t worry, it’s our people. I won’t betray you."
Bi Xia grinned, revealing her neat teeth, playfully teasing, "If you dare to speak, I’ll bite you to death!"
Wei Ming: "... Please don’t, just kill me. I’m afraid Fourth Brother would kill me out of jealousy if I get your saliva on me."
Bi Xia: "...Scram!"
Wei Ming teased with a raise of his eyebrows, "Oh, our queen is shy? How rare! It seems becoming a girl makes one easily bashful, right?"
As soon as the words fell, Meng Chi and others saw a blur flash before them, followed by a loud collision sound and an ’ouch.’ Turning towards the sound, they saw Wei Ming rubbing his hip and forehead as he climbed up from the ground, kicking the tightly shut door hard, mumbling softly, "Damn it, I forgot I’m not at the level to penetrate everything yet, embarrassing!"
Then, glancing back at everyone staring at him as he met Bi Xia’s half-smile gaze, Wei Ming paused, forcing a dry laugh, opened the door, and vanished without a trace.
Meng Chi: ... Have the guts not to act cowardly...
Bi Xia withdrew her gaze and turned to Meng Chi, "Your spiritual power is like self-developed. Although it’s also later, it’s more stable."
Meng Chi smiled, "Yes, I really like my current spiritual power, it has special significance to me now, and... Stealth defense, surprise attack, essential for home life."
With a light laugh, Bi Xia summoned the flame again, dividing it into two, and looked at Chu Kuang and Ye Xiao, "One person big flame, two people small flame, choose."
Chu Kuang and Ye Xiao exchanged glances, simultaneously grinning at Bi Xia, "Two people!"
