Chapter 475: Chapter 475: Cheng Xing Furious at the Mistress

The Flame King’s gaze made Fang Zhou feel emotional.

If it were a woman in this world, and he dared to look lecherously, ninety-nine percent would look back the same way.

“I am now using the power of the Holy Sword to condense a body, it won’t last long.”

The Flame King explained, although she felt Fang Zhou, the Savior, was full of indecent thoughts, she wasn’t an old-fashioned person who would think it’s a crime just to have such thoughts in one’s mind.

Her Heroic Spirit form was the product of soul and spirit, which could condense into a physical form through energy, but the consumption would be significant.

Even the Heroic Spirit form can’t be preserved forever; the soul and spirit gradually wither away until they disappear.

When the Flame King first died and transformed into a Heroic Spirit, she was still immensely powerful. At that time, the Abyss Watcher didn’t dare leave Fran Fortress, fearing being crushed by the Flame King.

Over the years, her soul and spirit have withered to the point where she must rely on the power of flame to fight the Abyss Watcher.

If Fang Zhou hadn’t appeared, perhaps in a few decades or a century, the Flame King might have disappeared forever.

The Flame King is already like this; the other Heroic Spirits are even worse. They were the last elites of humanity in life, and after death, they can’t even defeat ordinary monsters.

When mentioning the Heroic Spirits, the atmosphere suddenly became somewhat heavy.

Fang Zhou mentioned erecting monuments for the Heroic Spirits on the original battlefield, not to boast, but to express gratitude to the Flame King.

Without the selfless help and sacrifice of the Heroic Spirits, whether Fang Zhou could return is debatable.

“You don’t have to take it to heart.”

The Flame King advised, “No warrior would like to wander around as a ghost after death. Dying in battle is more of an honor and a relief to them. They helped you, but they also helped themselves.”

In a soul conversation, the thoughts within the Flame King’s heart were transparent to Fang Zhou. She genuinely believed what she said, not just to console Fang Zhou.

Fang Zhou felt much better all of a sudden and thought of something. He said to the Flame King, “Come with me, I have something good to show you.”

The Flame King sensed a rush of excitement from Fang Zhou’s heart and followed him to a place in the garbage mountain.

The two flew to the top of the garbage mountain and looked down. Even the steady Flame King couldn’t help showing a look of surprise.

They saw in the valley formed by several garbage mountains was filled with a vast amount of Soul Fire, so much that it nearly turned the valley into a lake.

The Flame King exclaimed, “Where did you find so many?”

Fang Zhou casually replied, “I had nothing to do, so I cleared the monsters in Lorric City.”

It wasn’t just Lorric City but also the monster in the underground tunnels.

Mainly the underground tunnels, where the monsters were almost endless; more than half of the Soul Fire here was obtained from the underground tunnels.

“Are these useful to you?”

Fang Zhou asked the Flame King. He remembered that the fire of the Fire Keeper could be used as fuel, and the fire could bring power to the Flame King.

“Useful, but can’t be used directly.”

“What do you mean?”

The Flame King explained to Fang Zhou that the Soul Fire of these monsters was not pure; it was very mixed and contaminated by the Abyss. Using it directly would seriously affect her.

However, as fuel for the fire, it was fine. The flame could purify these Soul Fires, turning them into pure Soul Energy.

So, unless the Soul Fire could be purified, the Flame King couldn’t use it directly.

After she died and became a Heroic Spirit roaming the Cold Valley for years, if Soul Fire could be used directly, she would have hunted the monsters herself long ago.

Fang Zhou hadn’t considered the need for purification; going back to the Black Soul World was impossible. It seemed he could only find a way from the Cultivation World.

After looking at the Soul Fire and returning, they happened to encounter the newly awakened Cheng Xing.

…

Cheng Xing was now very annoyed.

She had just awakened from her slumber, wandering around in the gourd, when she saw Fang Zhou standing with a strange woman.

Cheng Xing had excellent eyesight and clearly saw the woman’s appearance from afar, very beautiful.

But the anger in Cheng Xing’s heart surged upwards.

Cheng Xing actually knew Fang Zhou was flirting with other women, like Yu Qing and Wu Lin, who often came to Moon Viewing Peak looking for Fang Zhou.

But she didn’t take these seriously because she was a monster, lacking the human concept of ethics and morality.

However, possessiveness is common to living creatures. Cheng Xing subconsciously regarded Fang Zhou as her own, feeling very displeased by other women’s encroachment.

Usually, Cheng Xing rarely expressed this displeasure because she was in a weaker position in front of Fang Zhou, the bullied one.

It’s similar to social relationships in animals. The social system of monsters is not much better than animals. Strong monsters naturally attract more mates.

So while Cheng Xing was displeased, she didn’t find anything wrong. If one day she became stronger than Fang Zhou, she might forbid his contact with other women.

But today was different. Cheng Xing had just been affectionate with Fang Zhou recently, yet after taking a nap, he brought a strange beautiful woman in.

Cheng Xing always considered the gourd space as her territory, and Fang Zhou bringing a stranger in at such a special time made Cheng Xing feel her territory was being violated. The accumulated dissatisfaction erupted immediately.

She angrily walked towards Fang Zhou and the Flame King, preparing to warn Fang Zhou not to bring other women inside the gourd and to drive out this intruder in her territory.

However, as she got closer, Cheng Xing’s expression gradually changed.

Her anger gradually disappeared, replaced by a feeling called fear.

Fang Zhou and the Flame King also noticed Cheng Xing approaching and turned their heads to look at her.

Cheng Xing timidly came over, hiding beside Fang Zhou, looking at the Flame King with a curious yet fearful gaze.

The Flame King had golden hair coiled at the back of her head, clear emerald eyes, and beautifully sculpted features.

Although monsters had colorful hair, they were different from the Flame King’s type.

“What’s wrong with you?”

Fang Zhou asked Cheng Xing curiously. She looked like a mouse meeting a cat.

Cheng Xing clung tightly to Fang Zhou’s arm, avoiding the Flame King’s gaze and making a small animal sound of fright, “I’m scared!”

“What are you scared of?”

Fang Zhou glanced at the Flame King in surprise. Her aura was indeed majestic, and her calm gaze seemed to carry a deterrent power, full of unyielding dignity.

Although the Flame King’s strength was weakened significantly now, her aura as a big powerhouse was still present.

But even so, Cheng Xing shouldn’t be so scared. There were many big shots in Heavenly Sword Sect, and Cheng Xing usually couldn’t see her own strength position, yet she wasn’t afraid.
