--- Chapter 70 ---

"Any last words..." Qian Renxue said with an angry tone while her hand flashed with powerful golden light.

"I'm sorry," Yunlong quietly admitted with a weak smile on his face.

"Good, then take my fist!" Qian Renxue screamed while vigorously punching Yunlong's stomach and launched him toward the big rock, which instantly got cracked and destroyed.

Crack! Boom!!

"Okay, that hurts," Yunlong muttered while wiping a little blood from the corner of his mouth.

Qian Renxue can't injure him because the differences between their physical abilities are on different levels, but he deliberately took her attack without any worry.

Yunlong firmly stood up from the ground and shifted his gaze at Qian Renxue, who calmly walked toward him with burning golden eyes.

"Why didn't you dodge my attack...?" Qian Renxue silently asked, to which Yunlong responded with a gentle smile.

"Because it's my fault. I'm sorry, big sister." Yunlong naturally replied, which stopped Renxue's steps and gritted her teeth in annoyance.

Qian Renxue moved at a fast speed and arrived in front of him. She's about to punch Yunlong again on the stomach, but seeing that he didn't dodge or fight back, makes her feel complicated.

"Y-You shouldn't do that, again!" Qian Renxue shouted while launching her punch, to which Yunlong quietly reacted by opening a hug for her.

Bam!

Yunlong hugged his sister's body while she cried in his embrace because of the struggle between anger and worry feeling in her heart.

"Mm, I'm sorry," Yunlong whispered to Qian Renxue's ears, making her calm down, and closed her eyes in his embrace.

He lightly caressed Qian Renxue's blonde hair for a few moments until he noticed that she's already sleeping in his embrace, which made him sigh in relief.

Yunlong gently lifted and carried his sister like a princess toward the ice and fire pond, where he can see his maids laying on the ground, panting in exhaustion.

"Young master?" Chu Xiaoyu quietly whispered while looking at Yunlong, who carried his sister like a princess.

Yunlong only smiled at Xiaoyu and placed his index finger on his mouth, indicating that they should be quiet because his sister was sleeping.

Chu Xiaoyu obediently nodded her head while Yunlong's other maids were too exhausted to notice his presence, especially Bai Xue, who fainted.

He threw a few pills toward Xiaoyu, which she quietly caught with her right hand and walked away toward a shady cottage near the ice and fire well.

"Thank you..." Chu Xiaoyu's soft mumble entered Yunlong's ears, to which he responded with a shook of his head.

She quietly stared at her young master's back for a few minutes and shifted her gaze at her fellow maids.

After they arrived at the cottage, Yunlong placed Qian Renxue on a cozy bed and waited for her to wake up while sitting on a chair near her.

'Show me the result of my martial souls' evolution...' Yunlong thought while looking at the system panel, which suddenly appeared in the air.

[Processing...]

[Martial Souls...]

[1. Golden-Threaded Handkerchief has gained [Extreme Poison Control] and [Cold and Heat Resistance] Traits]]

[2. Golden Saint Dragon has evolved into <True Saint Dragon> and gained [Annihilation Lightning] and [Semi Solar Flame] Traits]

[3. Darkness Flame Dragon has evolved into <True Demon Dragon> and gained [Semi Lunar Flame] and [Demonic Ice Heart] Traits]

[You have gained [Semi Dragon King's Physique] and [Extreme Fire and Water Control]]

'Uh...? Okay, that's a lot of traits.' Yunlong thought with a surprised expression.

In this one week, he has tempered his body using ice and fire well and a few special pills using herbs he gathered in Dugu Bo's garden as ingredients, so Yunlong didn't really surprise when he gained [Extreme Poison Control] and [Cold and Heat Resistance].

But, to think his martial soul would evolve and gain five traits really shocked him because he didn't expect something like this would happen.

[Name: Annihilation Lightning]

[Description: A unique lightning with fire and lightning property, it had a powerful destruction capability]

[Name: Semi Solar Flame]

'Show me my other flames.' Yunlong instructed his system, which generated another system panel.

[Name: Hell Flame]

[Description: A darkness based flame from burning hell, it has corrosive property]

[Name: White Candle Stainless Flame]

'Neo, fuse these flames with my new flame traits.' Yunlong firmly instructed because this would probably burn his entire system points.

'Also fuse [Calm Mind] and [Burning Soul] Skills with [Demonic Ice Heart].' He added because these three skills are very similar to each other.

[Processing...]

[Semi Solar Flame+Yellow Crow Flame+White Candle Stainless Flame]

[Semi Lunar Flame+Hell Flame]

[Price: 125,000 Sp]

'Fuse!' Yunlong accepted while expecting a good result.

[Fusion...]

[...]

[You have gained [True Solar Flame], [True Lunar Flame], and [Demonic Black Heart]]

"Yunlong...?" Qian Renxue muttered while fidgeting on the bed, which caused Yunlong to instantly shift his gaze at her.

"Yunlong, please don't die." She added while releasing crystal clear tears from her eyes.

"I'm here, big sister," Yunlong responded while grasping Qian Renxue's hand, but he can see that her body is still trembling.

He suddenly recalled the [White Candle Stainless Flame], which he has fused with [Semi Solar Flame].

Yunlong opened his left hand, and a golden flame with a bright white aura appeared, which he controlled by slowly coating his left hand.

"There, there... It's alright, I won't die." Yunlong said while softly patting Qian Renxue's head, which made her stop shivering.

A bright golden light quickly came out of Qian Renxue's body, and Yunlong suddenly felt a connection between his sister and himself.

"Spirit Harmonization...?!" Yunlong whispered with widened eyes, and Qian Renxue, who is asleep, suddenly opened her eyes.

"Yunlong!" Qian Renxue lifted her body and pressed her lips against Yunlong's lips while tightly hugging his body with all her might because she's afraid of losing him.

"Don't worry, it's just a nightmare. I won't die? See, I'm here." Yunlong looked at her eyes, which still had a hint of fear.

"Really...?" Qian Renxue whispered with a worried tone, to which Yunlong responded by gently kissing her back.

"Mm, I'm not going to die." Yunlong firmly answered as both of them hugging for a few hours, which is exceptionally comfortable for some reason
