Chapter 279 - I Missed You
Feng Tianlan struggled with all her might. Finally, she moved her fingers slightly so that flames appeared on her fingertips. Then, she reached for Si Mobai’s neck…
“Tssss!” Si Mobai suddenly felt a burn on his neck and grimaced. He touched the spot, and Feng Tianlan jumped out of his embrace, flames still dancing on her fingertips. He couldn’t help but raise an eyebrow and say, “Lan’er has reached Spiritual Grandmaster.”
Now, she knew how to use Spiritual force against him!
Feng Tianlan sat on her chair and took a sip of tea. “Si Mobai, if you dare to touch me again, I’ll burn you alive.”
She hadn’t been strong enough before. But now, she had reached the Spiritual Grandmaster level and even possessed two elements. She was still weaker than Si Mobai, but she was strong enough to struggle and prevent him from kissing her forcibly.
“I haven’t seen you for three days. I miss you.” Si Mobai wagged a finger at her. “Come over and sleep.”
He hadn’t hugged her to sleep for the past two nights, and he couldn’t sleep well without her in his arms.
“Please leave now.” Feng Tianlan opened her palm, and an even bigger fire lit up. She used her phoenix eyes to stare at Si Mobai’s neck. There was a red patch where she had burned him.
Si Mobai got up, straightened his clothes, then walked toward Feng Tianlan and looked at the large flame in her hand. Then he reached out a hand to grab her flaming palm and pulled her into his embrace.
“You’re nuts! This fire will burn you.” Feng Tianlan’s first concern was that he had used his hand to hold her flaming palm. Even though it wasn’t a real fire, it was hot enough to burn.
Si Mobai lowered his eyes. There was a faint smile on his lips. “You’re worried about me.”
“You deserve to be burned! Let go!” Feng Tianlan frowned as she used all her strength to struggle. She shouldn’t have shown any concern for him.
Si Mobai was in a good mood, so he pulled Feng Tianlan up to a sitting position in his lap. He held her tightly and stretched out his long arms to show her that his hands were both white and clean. There was no injury whatsoever.
Feng Tianlan looked in disbelief and stopped struggling. How could that be? She was sure that her fire was capable of causing burns. That had been proved when she’d whipped Tu Xiuyu. It should undoubtedly be the case now that her fire element was coming closer to becoming a real flame.
This was not possible. Unless…
Si Mobai kissed her cheek and said, “Enough. Time to sleep. You’re tired from the last three days, and you still have a good show to watch tomorrow.”
Feng Tianlan didn’t try guessing at Si Mobai’s level of ability anymore. But she was starting to suspect, once again, that he might not be from the Guiyuan Continent. He was too powerful!
He had said before that he had very powerful enemies. Could he also be from the Xuantian Continent?
Feng Tianlan shook her head and refused to think anymore. He had nothing to do with her!
Si Mobai held Feng Tianlan in his embrace. He fell asleep very soon since he’d not slept for the last two nights because he was guarding Feng Tianlan.
The next morning, Feng Tianlan woke up and didn’t see any trace of Si Mobai. She got up to wash, then called for Azurite.
“Master.” Azurite came out from the Pill Scroll Realm and knelt on one knee immediately, waiting to be punished.
Feng Tianlan looked at her coldly. “You belong to me, but you obeyed someone else.”
“He seems familiar to me. It’s the same feeling I get from you, so…Master, please go ahead and punish me.” Azurite didn’t defend herself any further. Si Mobai felt to her like another master, which was why she’d obeyed his command.
Feng Tianlan was momentarily stunned. That scene in the bloody red mist where the man had been holding someone in his arms suddenly appeared in her mind. Just thinking of it made her feel suffocating pain in her heart.
