I don't want to come up with a funny book title anymore.

Blazing Flame Glass sensed the approaching danger and tried to dodge to the side.

However, the runic chain seemed to have its own consciousness, relentlessly tracking and locking onto her.

Soon, her arms and waist were wrapped around it.

As the sizzling sound rang out, the intense heat surging around her seemed to be suppressed and contracted rapidly.

Seeing that Blazing Flame Glass was in a bad situation, the gust of wind rushed towards Flame Cloth again.

It has a cutting motion, aiming directly at his throat.

Yan Bu felt his hair stand on end and instinctively flinched away.

His grip on the necklace loosened, and the rune chain began to dim.

Seeing this, Yan Jian, who had been waiting for an opportunity, was not about to miss it. He used all his strength to thrust the short blade fiercely towards Chi Yanli's chest.

The blade tip sliced ​​through the air, emitting a sharp whistling sound.

Seeing this, Feng Ling was extremely anxious.

Ignoring his own condition, he wanted to conjure up a body to shield Blazing Flame from the attack.

Just as the short blade was about to pierce that invisible gust of wind.

Blazing Glass's hand grasped the blade.

Her palm was cut open, and blood gushed out, but she seemed not to feel any pain; her face was filled with confusion.

How did I... unleash this power?

With the threat from the Wind Spirit gone, Yan Bu quickly increased his control over the necklace.

Suddenly, the short blade that had been blocked by Blazing Flame Glass was heading straight for her heart again.

Xie Fengnan was hammering the men Yan Guang had brought into corpses when he saw this scene. His eyes narrowed slightly, and he was about to make a move.

The next second, a large amount of pure white flames burst forth from Blazing Glass's wound.

Upon seeing this, Xie Fengnan stopped what he was doing.

As the blade tip slowly pierced into Blazing Glass's heart, she seemed to hear a gust of wind.

Even though the short blade hadn't pierced her heart, she felt a sharp pain.

She vaguely saw a young boy and girl.

They were childhood sweethearts, inseparable since they were little.

As the image continued to pan back, she saw—the little boy was a gust of wind.

The little girl is a flame.

"boom--"

The clearer the memory, the more intense the flames became.

With a "crack," the rune chains binding her were shattered and disintegrated by the violent force, gradually dissipating into the air.

Blazing Flame Glass cupped the ethereal wind in her hands.

"I'm sorry, Ayu, I've caused you trouble all these years."

Her wound was healing at a visible speed, but the wind had disappeared.

Blazing Flame Glass clenched her fists with lingering affection.

Then, having regained her memories, she slowly looked at Yan Jian, her eyes filled with icy coldness and the anger of betrayal.

Taking advantage of her attention being focused on Yan Jian, Yan Bu gritted his teeth and tried to activate the power of the necklace again.

Although the newly formed rune chains were not as imposing as before, they were still slowly extending towards Blazing Glass.

Seeing this, Blazing Flame Gli sneered and hurled the short blade in her hand at Flame Cloth.

The short blade precisely severed the necklace, with another crisp "snap" sound.

The beast tooth gem necklace broke into several pieces, and the rune chains instantly lost their support and dissipated in the heat wave.

Yan Bu's eyes widened, his face filled with disbelief. The method he had always regarded as his trump card and reliance had been destroyed in an instant. He couldn't help but scream in madness and despair, "No—"

This cry was not only because he had lost his trump card, but also because he understood that the tide had turned against him.

Yanbu's legs went weak, and he almost collapsed to the ground.

Blazing Flame Glass did not let this incident slow down its pressure on Yan Jian.

She moved with light, graceful steps, her red veil fluttering. "Yan Jian, are you going to do it yourself, or should I help you?"

Yan Jian feigned composure, sweat trickling down his temples. "Ah Li, I...I was wrong! I can explain! I was forced! Yes! They forced me to do it!"

"Please, please forgive me this time, for the sake of our past relationship."

His voice trembled as he pleaded, trying to gain Blazing Flame's pity by shifting blame.

However, Blazing Flame Glass simply watched his ugly state with indifference, remaining unmoved.

"Since you want me to take action, then I will grant your wish."

Immediately, flames engulfed his body.

Yan Jian kept wailing, "I was wrong! I was blinded by greed! Please! Spare my life!"

But Chi Yanli still ignored his pleas.

Seeing that his pleas for mercy were in vain, Yan Jian's fear was instantly replaced by twisted resentment.

He suddenly raised his head and started cursing at Blazing Flame Glass.

"Blazing Flame, you heartless woman! If you hadn't refused to be with me all these years, how could I have done such a thing!"

"What saintess! What utter nonsense! You... ah!!!"

Blazing Flame didn't want to hear those filthy words, so she let the flames leap higher and higher on her body, making a "sizzling" sound.

A pungent, burnt smell filled the air, and Xie Fengnan waved his hand in disgust under his nose.

"Ah Li, Ah Li! I was really wrong, please give me a quick death..."

The excruciating pain overwhelmed Yan Jian like a tidal wave, and all he could do now was weakly beg for mercy.

His eyes were fixed on Blazing Flame Glass. All his former ambitions and scheming had vanished, leaving only a longing for death and a plea for release.

Chi Yanli's expression shifted, and Yan Jian turned into a pile of ashes.

Yanbu, who witnessed all of this, stared wide-eyed.

"This...this is impossible..."

Yan Jian, who had conspired with him to seize control of the Holy Maiden's power and was considered a powerful figure in the tribe, was completely consumed by the flames.

He wanted to escape; he had to escape.

Yanbu's legs seemed to have been injected with some kind of enhancer, and he suddenly exerted force uncontrollably.

He charged forward recklessly, only to be engulfed by flames in the blink of an eye.

Seeing that only he and Chi Yanli remained alive at the scene, Xie Fengnan let out a soft "Oh!" and casually picked up his jade pendant.

Blazing Glass then pulled out a small lock from the pile of ashes.

She pulled out a matching key from her sleeve, her face filled with a look of reminiscence.

Yan Jian was able to get close to her entirely because of this lock.

This was originally a token of love between her and Ayu.

But something unexpected happened to Ayu, causing the lock to fall into Yan Jian's hands.

Yan Jian lied to her, saying that he was the owner of the lock.

She believed it to be true and treated him very differently from the others in the tribe.

But whenever he wanted to engage in more intimate acts with her, her body would subconsciously resist.

She hadn't looked into the reasons behind it before, only assuming it was because she was shy.

Looking back now, it was simply because he wasn't A-Yu.

This is also why Blazing Flame Glass made Yan Jian die such a tragic and painful death.

She hated him for taking advantage of her vulnerability.

She also regretted not remembering all of this sooner.

Thinking of Xie Fengnan, who had led the events to this point, Chi Yanli turned her gaze to him.
