Chapter 268: The Falling Flames, Damn, This Hurts the Soul!
Now, all they had to do was wait for their Pavilion Master and his wife to make Su Qian submit!
In the sky, Su Qian felt like he had lived through the worst day of his life. He had never felt so wronged.
After another clash, he abruptly retreated, then pushed his palm forward and said, "Enough, that's enough! I won't fight anymore!"
"You two are both stronger than me, so stop ganging up on me. I'll let you go!"
As soon as he finished speaking, Su Qian's figure flashed as he descended toward Jia Nan Academy. He glanced at Hu Qian, and the two of them pulled out identical tokens.
Infusing their Dou Qi into the tokens, the barrier in the sky immediately disappeared…
It was clear that this was meant to let Wu Tian and his group leave.
Su Qian wasn't stupid if Wu Tian and Medusa really wanted to leave, this small barrier wouldn't stop them!
Especially Wu Tian. That strange four colored Heavenly Flame could burn through anything.
Creating a hole in the barrier would be far too easy for him.
For the sake of Jia Nan Academy's students, Su Qian had no choice but to let them go.
However…
Wu Tian looked at Su Qian, who was trying to negotiate, and a smirk appeared on his lips.
Su Qian didn't want things to escalate into an all out war. If that happened, Jia Nan Academy would be finished.
Su Qian wasn't a fool. He had endured a beating to test Wu Tian and Medusa's strength.
And now he understood just Medusa alone could match him in battle.
Not to mention Wu Tian, who wielded four types of Heavenly Flame…
Wu Tian had held back in their fight, never using the true power of his flames.
Yet back when he fought Liu Qing, he had unleashed enormous Fire Lotuses, despite only being at the Dou Ling level at the time!
If a mere Dou Ling could do that, what about a Dou Zong?
If Wu Tian used that level of attack, Jia Nan Academy would be finished.
Even one of those Fire Lotuses could severely wound him!
That kind of power rivaled a Heaven rank Dou Technique. There was no way he could withstand it.
And who knew what other hidden trump cards Wu Tian had?
Even if they summoned those two old monsters, it would be futile. It would only bring destruction upon Jia Nan Academy!
Wu Tian understood all of this.
He knew that Jia Nan Academy's strength wasn't limited to what he had seen today.
Back at the Treasure Pavilion, he had encountered two other elders guardians of Jia Nan Academy known as the Two Elders of a Hundred Trials.
Both of them were peak Dou Zong powerhouses.
With Su Qian, that made three Dou Zongs.
If things really escalated, Wu Tian wouldn't mind testing his newly acquired god tier technique…
Of course, that wouldn't align with his plans.
After all, he intended to turn this place into his training ground.
Su Qian stared at this man who dared to call his mighty Headmaster "Little Tian Chi" and frowned, his face serious.
"Wu Tian, I know your strength is unfathomable, and I don't care what your relationship with the Headmaster is."
"But regardless, the fact remains you destroyed the Blazing Sky Qi Refining Tower. Without it, the Inner Academy will be crippled…"
"Great Elder."
Wu Tian smiled and raised a hand, stopping Su Qian from rambling on.
Then, in the next moment, a transparent flame appeared in his palm.
"Look… what is this?"
Su Qian and everyone else immediately focused on Wu Tian's hand.
In an instant, their eyes widened in shock, exclaiming in disbelief.
"This… this is…"
Wu Tian said calmly, "That's right. This is the Fallen Heart Flame."
Su Qian looked at Wu Tian in disbelief. "What do you mean by this? Don't tell me you're planning to "
He didn't finish his sentence.
Because he realized that what he was thinking was impossible.
No one absorbs a Heavenly Flame only to return it later.
That was absurd. It would make all his efforts pointless!
Even if Wu Tian were a fool, he wouldn't do something so stupid.
Everyone looked at Wu Tian in confusion except for one person.
Queen Medusa.
She had been with Wu Tian the entire time, day and night in the magma world.
Wu Tian looked at the doubtful Su Qian and said, "Great Elder Su Qian, you are not mistaken. I intend to return the Fallen Heart Flame to Jia Nan Academy!"
"…What?"
Everyone, including Su Qian, was stunned by Wu Tian's words.
He actually wanted to return the Fallen Heart Flame to Jia Nan Academy?!
This was beyond unbelievable.
Was Wu Tian insane?
"Are you serious?"
"Of course."
The transparent flame in Wu Tian's palm suddenly shot into the sky.
Then, like a meteor, it crashed straight into the Blazing Sky Qi Refining Tower.
"Boom!"
A surge of scorching energy erupted from below, instantly forming a massive pillar of fire that soared into the sky.
This turned the once calm magma world into a raging inferno, with fire pillars shooting high into the air.
"Crack "
A loud cracking sound echoed.
Then, countless terrifying fractures spread across the sky, and a massive, transparent barrier shattered.
Su Qian felt utterly embarrassed this was one of Jia Nan Academy's hidden defensive measures.
It was supposed to be their last resort against Wu Tian…
But now…
It had been obliterated in an instant by a mere eruption of magma.
What a slap in the face!
Wu Tian had indeed returned the Fallen Heart Flame to Jia Nan Academy.
But… some lessons had to be taught.
Just now, the flame in Wu Tian's hand had indeed been the Fallen Heart Flame.
But it wasn't the original small flame it was the one that had already fused with him, the true "Great Fallen Heart Flame."
Since the Fallen Heart Flame had merged with his body, he had complete control over it.
Even if he allowed someone else to absorb and refine it, he would still be its true master.
This was the terror of the Divine Flame Condensing Art.
Of course, even ordinary Heavenly Flame masters could exert some control over their flames.
For example, Wu Tian's "Little Chrysanthemum" the Heavenly Flame belonging to Venerable Yao Tian Huo, the former master of the Fallen Heart Flame.
The Fallen Heart Flame wouldn't harm him at least, according to the original story.
But now that Wu Tian had absorbed it, it had no connection to Yao Tian Huo anymore.
The moment the Fallen Heart Flame entered the magma world, it triggered a surge of terrifying energy.
The eruption was even stronger than when Wu Tian had first emerged.
Forget about the old Blazing Sky Qi Refining Tower even the sky above had turned into a sea of fire.
Molten magma rained down like a fiery storm…
At that moment, Su Qian finally understood the true meaning of "Fallen Heart Flame."
Fallen Heart Flame flames that fall from the heavens, burning everything, making one's heart truly ache…
Damn, this was heartbreaking!
