A beam of fire, to be exact, which resembled the tender glow of dawn in Sung Tsz Hin’s painting. 316Please respect copyright.PENANA1BCEaLL6H4
Feeling a sharp pain from the back of his head, the sword-wielder fainted.
A bald teenager picked him up by his collar and turned to the black-haired teen in confusion. I felt a disgusting aura a moment ago, where did it disappear to?316Please respect copyright.PENANABKwVgcqyHL
Was it from him? Puzzled, the bald teenager looked at the glipher in his hand and tossed him a dozen meters away like a piece of trash. With his strength, this glipher would be in a coma for at least twenty-four hours.316Please respect copyright.PENANAbf0w3lXL3z
He turned to the black-haired teenager and felt that he could click with him seeing how he decided to cook chicken in the middle of a so-called tomb. The bald teenager strode over and sat next to the black-haired teen.
Surprisingly, the deadly attack that the black-haired teen was preparing to launch disappeared into thin air after the bald teen’s appearance, allowing the other to sit next to him peacefully.316Please respect copyright.PENANA71v9Yv0ez1
“Brother, isn’t it boring to have a meal alone? Why don’t I share some wine with you, and you share your chicken with me? How does that sound?”

Siu Fu diverted his gaze away from the chicken to the shiny bald head, curiosity washing over his deep orbs.316Please respect copyright.PENANA1lokt6YROV
Of course, he did not travel such a long distance here just to kill weaklings and feast on a chicken. He was here because of the secret necrogliphism style he cultivated that allowed him to tell the future. It was unbelievable that such a powerful style originated from such an evil cult.316Please respect copyright.PENANA3dZj4VtkJg
Maybe because of his low cultivation state, he was only able to feel but not exactly predict what was going to happen.316Please respect copyright.PENANASycq5SgMaH
All Siu Fu knew was that he had a great opportunity here in the Western Desert, this space that was once filled with treasure. He couldn’t tell what that opportunity was, but coincidentally, he felt hungry and decided to just make a meal here.316Please respect copyright.PENANANxMUKY4kBa
And unexpectedly, his opportunity came.316Please respect copyright.PENANAGUfolE0i4z
It was not a divine weapon buried beneath the dust or a powerful style that remained undiscovered for the past thousand years like Siu Fu expected, but a living person instead.
Who saved his life despite not knowing who he was.
Siu Fu was more than capable of killing that glipher with a single attack, but the bald teen was unaware of that and chose to save his life despite not knowing him. The teen did not even mention the fact that he saved him and only came over with a condition of exchanging food.316Please respect copyright.PENANACWCTyt0Idb
This was a comfortable way of interaction that Siu Fu loved.316Please respect copyright.PENANALcrWRg3V2a
He put on a sincere smile, and his sinister vibes were nowhere to be found.316Please respect copyright.PENANAbF6MCrsbIl
“I’m more than willing. Hopefully, Sir’s wine is good, otherwise it would be a waste of my chicken.”316Please respect copyright.PENANAtQwkee3bFf
Hearing him, Chui Yim knew that they would click and laugh out loud. “Definitely.”316Please respect copyright.PENANA9C0nwazoM5
Chui Yim waved his hands, leaving Siu Fu in great shock. With his status, Siu Fu could take away anything that he liked in the Black Promise Tower. Thus, he could tell that Chui Yim was wearing a Divine Bracelet of Five Elements, a powerful storage artefact from the ancient past that was said to have the ability to store all the treasures in the world.316Please respect copyright.PENANAlQgLaXd923
Chui Yim did not deliberately hide the treasure from Siu Fu and placed a jug of wine in front of both of them, opening its seal.316Please respect copyright.PENANAj7oO5reRRq
The fragrance of roasted chicken and wine permeated the space.316Please respect copyright.PENANAeWQGH5hy0o
Siu Fu took the wine from Chui Yim and downed it.316Please respect copyright.PENANA2dNDIakxwa
The Drunken Year was aromatic and contained a high percentage of alcohol, but it was not astringent or bitter, only thick and fragrant. A sip of Drunken Year was like tasting a hundred flavours at the back of your throat at the same time.316Please respect copyright.PENANA9aTgyZQWRl
The weirdly satisfying feeling was extremely refreshing.316Please respect copyright.PENANAcaYPARDSxB
“It’s a great wine.” Siu Fu was pleasantly surprised. Even as the sacred son, he did not have access to delicious food since the food in Black Promise Tower was bad. Being able to have a taste of the delicious wine gave him happiness.316Please respect copyright.PENANA8MsTVC0EdQ
“What a good idea to use glutinous rice as a base.”316Please respect copyright.PENANAlwtezDicKl
“Ah, another that knows wine well.” Chui Yim’s eyes lit up and he told the other the recipe for Drunken Year honestly. As they were conversing, the roasted chicken was ready.
Roasted chicken and delicious wine were a great pair, and the cold passage was no longer unbearable.316Please respect copyright.PENANABDONncz4bv
As the both of them conversed, they left each other in shock.316Please respect copyright.PENANAHjn0wF52Mb
Chui Yim was a knowledgeable teen, and after knowing that all the books he read as a child were stolen from Cloud Palace, he further cherished his knowledge. On the other hand, the black-haired teen looked ordinary, but he shocked Chui Yim with his words and how he was able to follow up with all the scrolls Chui Yim mentioned, including novels, prose, and travelogues.316Please respect copyright.PENANA3BbS80qx4K
Of course, Chui Yim expected to come across other cultivators at the Red Rampart and was prepared to get into a fight with them, which was normal between cultivators.316Please respect copyright.PENANAdQlUNl24dC
However, neither he nor his new friend mentioned a single word about cultivation as if there was a tacit agreement. They chatted about random stuff and enjoyed a meal together.

There was a group passing through the passage. The group members held torches to light up the dark passage.316Please respect copyright.PENANA2jUtMt8Re3
In the middle stood two men, one holding a long blade while another had his hands behind his back.316Please respect copyright.PENANAa7HsEFBHEC
They were Lee Kwong and Chui Sang.316Please respect copyright.PENANAEADjQVeAYm
“Leader, here it is! This is the best match!” one of the group members shouted. Lee Kwong turned to the man next to him to see that he was staring in front without a word.
It was a wall that blocked the passage, and it looked just like a dead end with a stone painting on it. If it was Chui Yim, Kam Chin Kee, Siu Fu, or Mung Si, who read a lot, they would identify the painting immediately.316Please respect copyright.PENANA2AvMzNiClK
In the middle of the painting was a flower that resembled a ball of flame. It burned brightly, and the painting represented purity and holiness. When one looked closely, they would find a figure standing behind it.316Please respect copyright.PENANACgTx8rWway
Huge hands that could cover heaven and earth, the middle finger and thumb trying to pinch the supreme blossom of flame in it.316Please respect copyright.PENANAupk5eeGPIv
At the bottom right-hand corner of the painting, it was pitch-black, as if it was being eroded by time.316Please respect copyright.PENANAEZykuwJnRs
This was a very popular drawing recorded in the scrolls, “Buddha Bestows the World Fire.”316Please respect copyright.PENANAsYb1LIsaLv
This painting originated a thousand years ago when Buddhism still existed in the world, and it depicted a story in the Buddhist texts where the world first started and flame didn’t yet exist. Humans led poor lives, eating raw meat. Pitying men, Buddha bestowed a drop of his precious blood to mankind.316Please respect copyright.PENANAeeva2ix9AT
It dropped from the heavens to the earth and turned into flame. Humans learnt how to use flame and gained intelligence.316Please respect copyright.PENANAJwPS4eNsNq
Now, the ancient myths were just legends in today’s world, but it made sense to find such a painting in the Red Rampart.316Please respect copyright.PENANACVXU1RN4Xe
Chui Sang looked at the stone painting in a daze, but he was burning in his heart.316Please respect copyright.PENANAnTSXJOAia0
For today, he planned many years, convinced Lee Kwong and his team, and came to this desolate area. Nobody realised that the ordinary stone bead he held was currently emitting black gas, which resonated with the eroded corner of the painting.316Please respect copyright.PENANAAvrQg6ziFn
This was the energy that he felt, the energy that could change his life.
