Lory had never seen Zhao Li Xin fighting so hard except when he was fought with Lazarus because when Lory met him he was already one of the strongest people on the continent and he only got stronger after Lory healed him so Lory never personally saw what he had been through to be strong she only heard some of the stories from Mong Ki and Mong Yi but now she saw with her own eyes Lory felt she had underestimated the struggle he had going through to get where he is right now just so he can survive and live the way he wanted to be.

Lory cannot imagine the pain Zhao Li Xin must going through, and this thought is like needles jabbing at her skin.

Once again Zhao Li Xin was almost torn apart by the beast's sharp claws but swiftly managed to take a step into the beast's front leg and then jumped on top of the beast's head with lightweight skill.

The Zhyger once again flapped its wings against Zhao Li Xin but this time he managed to catch the beast's wing and with a roaring scream he tore the beast's wing off with his bare hands.

Lory's face lit up, "YES, hit it!" she clapped her hands excitedly.

The beast screamed in pain as it fell to the ground. Zhao Li Xin threw away the broken wings that were covered with tree branches.

He walked towards the dying beast, [Is that it?] His voice contained disappointment then he jumped right in front of the beast's muzzle [I need more... give me more...] his voice more like a threat than mockery.

A strange glint flashed across the white eyes of the creature suddenly the aura around the beast changed drastically.

Lory felt something is wrong she immediately screams  [Li Xin stay away from the beast!]

The Zhyger opened its mouth and flames shot right at Zhao Li Xin.

[NO!!] Lory screamed in horror.

The blazing flames engulfed his whole body it burned not only her clothes but also his skin but Zhao Li Xin refused to move instead he got strangely excited [Yes...more...I want more]

His trembling hands reach to the beast's snout then with all his power he breaks the beast's jaw widely [GIVE ME MORE!] he screamed.

"Cascades!" Lory screamed a strong spell then all of a sudden water gather above the beast and  Zhao Li Xin then poured down like waterfalls soon after the sizzling sound and smoke began to permeate the air.

[Li Xin!] Lory frantically rush to where Zhao Li Xin was, her heart beating like a drum she regretted listening to Zhao Li Xin's request, if something happened to him she doesn't know what she should do!

However the thick smoke made it difficult for her to find Zhao Li Xin, irritated she summon the wind to wipe the smoke away when the smoke disappeared she was stunned to find Zhao Li Xin sitting in the lotus position while engulf in blazing fire.

[Xin....?] Color drained from Lory's face.

Despite her shock, at least she was certain that Zhao Li Xin was still alive, he seemed to be trying to control the fire or something that she guessed had something to do with cultivation technique so she didn't dare disturb Zhao Li Xin.

Lory sat on her knees not far from Zhao Li Xin while watching him closely.

There's a reason why no one can master the immortal flame, cause no one is crazy enough to learn a skill that can devour its own master moreover they don't have the right body to inherit the power like Zhao Li Xin but that doesn't mean there is no risk for Zhao Li Xin.

Because when they are unable to control the eternal flames, the power will turn against them and the owner will be devoured by madness and bloodlust until it finally drains the owner's entire life force.

As proof of how savage this power is, the first thing to do to awaken this power is to absorb real fire into the body which means letting the person's body be burned and forcing them to assimilate the fire with their Qi, and the stronger the fire the more likely the person is to awaken the immortal flame and if he fails, they will burn to death.

Zhao Li Xin felt her skin, flesh, and bones burn to ashes. He wasn't even sure if he was still conscious or not, but he refused to give up. After all, this wasn't the first time he had done this so it would be very embarrassing if he failed, especially in front of Lory.

What's more, he needs this power to protect Lory from new enemies that will appear, he is annoyed because Lory has never had peace in her life but knowing how Lory was, Zhao Li Xin knew she will face whatever comes without fear therefore all he can do is stand in front of her and make sure not anyone can touch her without passing through him.

Zhao Li Xin gritted her teeth. He could feel the meridian pathways all over his body opening simultaneously and began to absorb the fire in his body and gradually merge with his Qi and the friction he felt become smoother after that the scorching heat gradually subsided.

Lory noticed that the change in Zhao Li Xin's face from pain slowly improved and the flames around his body started to decrease a lot until the flames completely dissipated. This should indicate that Zhao Li Xin has passed his critical period, right?

Lory waited patiently for Zhao Li Xin, she couldn't wait for Zhao Li Xin to wake up, and when he woke up she would give him a nice beating!

The few minutes felt like an eternity, the stress almost brought her to tears, but then she heard Zhao Li Xin let out a long exhale. Lory immediately stood up and then crouched in front of Zhao Li Xin.

[Li Xin...] Her voice trembles.

A minute passed Lory didn't get any reaction from Zhao Li Xin, once again worry gripped her heart she held her breath, and her trembling hands touched Zhao Li Xin's cheek [Li Xin...don't scare me...] She pleaded in a choked voice.

Zhao Li Xin's eyelids fluttered a few rapid beats before slowly opening at that moment their eyes locked with one another.

A slow smile spread across his handsome face [Sorry...] he said weakly.

Lory didn't say anything she throw herself on his chest and hugged him tightly, she forgot she was supposed to hit him for scaring her but all she felt was immense relief that Zhao Li Xin was fine.

Zhao Li Xin knew he must scare her, he blamed himself for not telling her beforehand, Zhao Li Xin wrapped his arms around her and then gently rubbed her back [Sorry I scared you...]

Lory didn't answer only her soft sniffles could be heard. Zhao Li Xin didn't say anything, he continue to hug her until she got over her stress.

After a while Lory let go of her embrace she rubbed her nose then Zhao Li Xin smiled gently while wiping the tear marks on her cheek.

[Feel better?] he looked at her affectionately.

Lory nodded slowly, she indeed felt much better but then she notice something odd about him then Lory look at Zhao Li Xin and then awestruck by the sudden realization [Li Xin...You are...NAKED?]

Zhao Li Xin looks at himself then nods calmly [I am...]

Lory's eyes widened in shock she immediately raised a camouflage barrier around them.

[I think half of my hair is also burnt…] Zhao Li Xin sighed he feel pity cause Lory liked his hair very much luckily cultivator hair growth is beyond normal so his hair will get long again in no time.

Zhao Li Xin raised from the ground calmly without being unfazed by being stark naked in the middle of nowhere while Lory panicked someone would see her sexy husband but at the same time, she feel excited seeing his sexy husband's naked body.

'Wait, this is not the time to appreciate my husband's perfect body!'

Lory's entire face was red like a boiling crab, she frantically searched for something to cover Zhao Li Xin's body luckily she found the jacket that Zhao Li Xin had just thrown away before he fought.

Lory scurried to take the jacket while Zhao Li Xin didn't know what make Lory so flustered it's not like she never saw his body, could it be there something wrong with his body? is he lost some muscles that his wife like so much? Oh no!

[Here, quick, put on Something! quick - quick - quick!] Lory frantically makes Zhao Li Xin wear his jacket.

Zhao Li Xin wears the jacket unhurriedly but another problem arises, he has no pants! what should she do, should she cover the upper or the bottom? either way, they will get in trouble!

[Wife, I think we still have 'half' the problem here…] Zhao Li Xin looks down at his half-naked body with a flat expression.

[You think?!] Lory grinds her teeth, no matter what she will not let anyone see his beautiful husband naked body even if she had to reveal her true identity.

'Over my dead body!'
