After these words fell, everyone present was moved.Among them, Ji Ba was the most obviously excited, and he couldn't even speak clearly:

"Honorable Lord, are you telling the truth?"

Liancheng didn't answer him, but Chao Yuan responded seriously:

"The Demon King Fengcheng never tells lies. He always does what he says. If he can't do it, he won't promise."

"Then, then we, the Yaozu..." Ji Ba's voice trembled a little, with the dissatisfaction and excitement that had been suppressed all these years, a kind of cautious disbelief.Liancheng suddenly felt a little moved, the monster race was so high above, never feared the weak human race, but for hundreds of millions of years, the monster race has been at a disadvantage, even enslaved and oppressed at will.Liancheng suddenly didn't know how to feel when he thought of those submissive monster slaves in Jiuchongtian.

But Chu Ci's voice sounded coldly:

"You can't get the sky-splitting fire! Because... I, no, Xu!!"

He said the last three words one by one, with a stern manner.At the same time, he was looking at him quietly, with stubborn sadness in his eyes:

"I will not let you ignite the fire that splits the sky. Even if it costs my life, I will stop you."

"What? Are you afraid that if I ignite it, it will threaten your status as the only one in heaven and earth?"

Liancheng used a series of parallel sentences, which made the smile on his lips even more ironic.Chu Ci also smiled, but it was a wry smile:

"You know perfectly well that I've never been afraid of that."

Liancheng didn't speak, and the smile on his lips faded a little, as if he was a little sleepy.Chu Ci continued:

"You knew me so well hundreds of millions of years ago, it's impossible not to understand now."

"I'm too lazy to tell you."

After he said this coldly, he went to the altar in the middle of the Fire Temple to get the Sky-Splitting Fire.But as soon as he moved, he was stopped by Chu Ci, and he emphasized every word:

"I said, I won't let you ignite the sky-splitting fire! Even if it costs my life! I mean it, don't force me to do it!"

"Do you think I should be afraid of you?" Liancheng easily dodged his offensive, with an expression of sarcasm or pity on his face, Chu Ci ignored him and just stuck to him. They are evenly matched.

After Chu Ci took another trick off him, the wry smile on his face became more obvious, and he said:

"Of course I know you're not afraid. I'm begging you. Please, don't take out the sky-splitting fire."

In the last sentence, he almost let go of all his airs, and it sounded a little pitiful at first glance.

Liancheng's expression froze for a moment, his face was complicated, as if he didn't know how to react and cover up properly, the expression on his face was unpredictable.

But at this time, Chao Yuan and Ji Ba seized the opportunity to rush to his side. They protected him from left to right, and shot at Chu Ci at the same time, and he was immediately at a disadvantage.

But Chu Ci didn't care about them at all, he just stared at Liancheng stubbornly, and said again:

"I'm begging you. Please."

"You have been deceived by him once, you are not stupid enough to be deceived by him again!?"

Perhaps seeing his eyes shaken, Chao Yuan finally couldn't help it, and reprimanded him rather harshly.

Liancheng laughed suddenly, he stopped without warning, then turned around, looked at Chao Yuan seriously, tilted his head and asked him:

"Third Highness, you seem to know all about our bad things back then. But I vaguely remember that many things between me and Chu Ci did not happen in the abyss of the deep sea. I don't know that you are far away in the abyss of the deep sea. Where did you find out about these gossips?"

Chao Yuan was taken aback for a moment when he heard his seemingly gentle questioning, but soon showed the same unfathomable smile. He looked directly at Liancheng and said softly:

"What do you think?"

For some reason, Liancheng always felt that there seemed to be some kind of strange magic in his eyes, which made him trance for a while.When I came back to my senses, I didn't know what was wrong.So in the end he could only give him a blank stare:

"How do I know! I..." Before he could finish his sentence, he suddenly lost his figure like lightning, and left the sight of everyone in an instant.Then he appeared on the altar, and when everyone was caught off guard, he grabbed the tinder of the sky-splitting fire in his palm.

"!!!"

This move was done extremely cleanly and beautifully. Chu Ci's full attention just now was in their meaningful conversation just now. He didn't expect him to make a move at this time. He was completely unprepared, and he succeeded easily. It became extremely pale and ugly.

Liancheng was like a child who succeeded in pranking, playing with the kindling of the sky-splitting fire in his hand, and smiled slightly, quite childishly proud:

"The Skysplitting Flame is in my hands now. What do you think I'll do with it?"

"Didn't your lord just say that you want to give us the sky-piercing fire, and return justice to the monster race in the world!" Almost as soon as he finished speaking, Ji Ba couldn't wait to talk.Liancheng naturally understood what he meant, probably because he was afraid that he would repent, so he put him here first with words.

Sure enough, after he finished speaking, Chao Yuan followed suit and said:

"I have been with you a long time ago. The demon king Fengcheng has always kept his promises, and he will do what he says. Since he promised, he will definitely do it. He will never go back on his word!"

The last few words of Chao Yuan had a strong accent, and he stared at Liancheng closely, as if he wanted to stare into his flesh and blood.For some reason, Liancheng felt dazed again, and when he came back to his senses, he had completely forgotten the subtle and strange feeling just now.

He just watched with great interest as the two sang together and cooperated quite tacitly.I didn't bother to expose their little tricks, but followed their words and said:

"That's right, I always keep my promises. As long as I promise, I will do what I say. But..." He deliberately paused for a while, making a fool of himself:

"I'm talking about returning fairness to the Yaozu. The Yaozu, not you." After he finished speaking, his eyes not only skipped Chao Yuan and Ji Ba, but also the rest of the great monsters of the ten directions, and finally fell on Chu Ci. On the body, he smiled, his eyebrows curved, and he spoke suddenly, with a pure and warm smile:

"Do you remember what Phoenix fireworks look like?"

Chu Ci's eyes tightened for a moment, and he suddenly remembered that hundreds of millions of years ago, he took down the sky-splitting fire for him in the same way, and then turned to him and asked:

"Do you like fireworks?"

He didn't even understand what he meant, he just nodded subconsciously, and then saw his smile became brighter and brighter, with a kind of childish innocence and cunning:

"Don't blink! Remember, don't blink."

After these words fell, he didn't even wait for his response, and ignited the cluster of sky-piercing fire!Gorgeous flames filled the sky in an instant, spreading out like brilliant fireworks. It was the most gorgeous and beautiful fireworks he had ever seen in his life.He was so excited that he couldn't help but want to share it with those closest to him.But when he turned around, he saw that the person holding the fireworks had no blood, one hand was so white that it was transparent, and the whole person was extremely weak.

why?

At that time, he was almost at a loss, so he could only ask him in a trembling voice.Then I saw him smiling casually with the corners of his lips curled up as usual.When he spoke, he was still so lazy, as if he didn't care about anything:

"Because the Sky-Splitting Fire is me! Here, now I will take a part of my body, um... let me think about which part..." He scratched around his body, and suddenly stopped at his chest:

"It should be the heart! Yes! It is the heart. If I give you the heart, I will naturally feel uncomfortable."

He couldn't believe it, trembling and clutching the cluster of torches, he asked him:

"Are you telling the truth?"

Then he looked over indifferently, met his eyes, burst into laughter, and pointed at him, almost overjoyed:

"What kind of expression is that on your face!? Are you so scared? Why? You took my heart, are you afraid that I will hold you responsible?"

"Is it true?" He asked stubbornly, he waved his hands indifferently, and said perfunctorily:

"If you think about it with your toes, it must be fake! Who would be born of a fire, and I am the son of a phoenix, and my parents are all named, how could it be a fire. I lied to you !"

"...Why did you lie to me with this kind of thing?" He was still a little worried, and asked him hesitantly, and he looked at him deeply, his peach blossom eyes seemed to be filled with autumn water, deep and rippling, and he laughed , there is a charming ambiguity:

"you said?"

This rhetorical question is hesitant to speak, revealing a bit of inexplicable sweetness and ambiguity, which belonged to him and him at that time, the most beautiful relationship.

So even if I think about it now, in that old memory, his smile is always there——

For hundreds of millions of years, it has never dissipated and faded.

But now, he showed this smile again, still facing him, and even said similar words.But his chest was throbbing suddenly, his face was pale, and he was even begging him:

"Don't light it! Ziyu, don't light it!"

After hearing this Jiu Yuan's address, Liancheng smiled, and even blinked at him. It was the original sentence, but it's a pity that the sea has changed:

"Don't blink! Remember, don't blink!"

As soon as the words fell, the entire Fire God Temple was as bright as day, and gorgeous fireworks instantly filled their surroundings like blossoming flowers.Only the person in the fireworks, his face became whiter and whiter, and finally not only his face, but also his arms, neck, and all exposed skin became pale and pale.

——White, almost like a transparent person.

And he still held the torch firmly, with a smile on his mouth:

"In my life, I have ignited the Sky-Splitting Fire three times! The first time, it was the great demon of the ten directions who coveted the fire of the Sky-Splitting Fire. He teamed up with the traitors of our clan and broke into Wutong Terrace. Feng Yi was tricked and lost. He begged me to save the Phoenix family with the kindness of nurturing, so I ignited the fire for the first time, and lost half of my life at the same time. The second time, you said that you wanted to seek stability for the human race and occupy a place among the monsters. A seat, no need to be afraid. I will grant your wish and light the second fire for you, and lose my heart. Twice, I lit the fire for others! This last time, I want it for myself!"
