Chapter 50: The Flame Bird

  As soon as He Dong and his men left, Lei An led his team to the scene. When they saw more than 20 people lying quietly on the ground, seemingly dead or alive, the shock in their hearts was even greater than if they had seen more than 20 people crying out in agony.

  "Big brother! Just now, the brothers checked it out, and there's almost no signs of fighting here. The injuries on these people are also basically consistent, it should be the work of one person!" Knife Scar said in a low voice.

  "Big brother, this person is absolutely a master! Don't look at these people like they're dead, in fact they just fainted. This person's control over their power has reached the point where they can do whatever they want! Evil Wolf is also one of the eight golden bodyguards of Lei Anbao, and he's the strongest one in terms of martial arts. His expression was very serious at this time."

  "This man is truly unpredictable!" Upon hearing his subordinate's report, Lei An couldn't help but think of He Dong's harmless smile.

  "Big brother, do you know who did this?" Lei An only told them to follow him to deal with some things and didn't make the situation very clear, so Daobo and the others weren't quite sure what was going on.

  "What's wrong, Dong!" Lei An didn't hide anything from his brother.

  "What? Could it be that those bastards were telling the truth from the beginning? How can He Dong's combat power be so high?" Dao Hen said in surprise.

  "It should be about right!" Lei An nodded thoughtfully, then suddenly looked at the scar-faced men with a serious expression and said, "Dong Shao is our benefactor, although he doesn't ask for anything in return. However, we absolutely cannot be ungrateful or disloyal. Therefore, I now solemnly declare that from today on, Dong Shao is me, Lei An, the benefactor and boss of Lei An Security. Whoever dares to disrespect him will be disrespecting me."

  "Yes!" Scar and others immediately replied respectfully.

  "Alright, let's get started! This is the first task assigned to us by Dong Ge, we must do it perfectly and leave no trace." After glancing at everyone's expressions and not seeing any dissatisfaction or abnormality, Lei An nodded and began to arrange in a low voice.

  For handling things like this, Lei An and his crew had extremely rich experience. In less than ten minutes, all the traces were cleaned up by them, and for safety's sake, they set a fire before leaving, so no one knew what had happened here.

  However, what they didn't know was that just about ten minutes after they left, a person covered in flames slowly walked out of the sea of fire.

  Although opening her eyes to an unfamiliar environment made Lin Xuan feel a bit tense at first, she quickly calmed down and recalled the events of yesterday.

  Because of the fragrance of peony emitted by Bai Yu's queen, Lin Xuan slept exceptionally sweetly that night. Not only did her energy recover, but her mood also improved a lot. So even now when she thought back to yesterday's encounter, Lin Xuan merely furrowed her brow for a moment before quickly returning to normal.

  "Xuan Xuan! You're awake!" Lin Xuan had just gotten out of bed when He Dong walked in with a steaming cup of milk.

  "Dong Dong!" Xuan Xuan sweetly shouted, then under He Dong's astonished gaze, she proactively gave He Dong a good morning kiss.

  "Xuan Xuan!" Lin Xuan's initiative made He Dong overjoyed, putting the milk aside and wrapping his hands around Lin Xuan's slender waist.

  "Considering your heroic performance yesterday, I've decided to promote you from today!" Lin Xuan didn't know why she was particularly relaxed today, and she directly put her arms around He Dong's neck, her face slightly red as she said.

  "Promotion? Ah! Could it be...?! Ah!" He Dong was stunned at first, but in an instant, his eyes burst out with joyful light, and he excitedly picked up Lin Xiang and spun around the room.

  "Ah! Quick! Put me down!" The rapid spinning made Lin Xuan somewhat unaccustomed, so she hastily cried out.

  "Hehe! Hehe!" He Dong obediently put Lin Xuan down, excited to the point of only being able to foolishly smile, unable to say a word.

  "Silly!" Looking at He Dong's silly appearance, Lin Xuan felt a wave of sweetness in her heart, but on the surface, she gave him a white eye and said with a pout.

  Lin Xuan's decision made He Dong happy for a whole day, Zhao Xinxin and Wang Xuewu both ridiculed He Dong, but He Dong remained unaffected.

  Because Lin Xuan was frightened, and the exam was approaching, He Dong rarely skipped class again. Except for going to the pet hospital on weekends, he would accompany Lin Xuan by her side at all other times, except for normal classes. This caused the two people's feelings to rise rapidly, and even He Dong's hands could freely climb the Jade Girl Peak.

  But this good day did not last long, and before they knew it, summer vacation had arrived. They would be apart for over 50 days, which made the two people who were deeply in love feel sad. Even when He Dong was sending Lin Xiang to the airport, Xiao Yatou cried so much that her eyes became red and swollen, and all she could do was turn back and look at him again and again.

  After seeing Lin Xuan off, He Dong's heart also suddenly felt empty and hollow. To adjust his mood, He Dong directly entered the summoning space.

  Recently, although He Dong has been with Lin Xuan for most of the time, he hasn't missed out on earning summoning points on weekends. His summoning points have now reached an all-time high, a total of 35 points. This time, He Dong is preparing to summon the remaining two third-level pets together.

  Category: Demon Beast

  Rank: Third Class

  Name: Flame Bird

  Racial traits: likes to bathe in magma flying demon beast

  Innate Ability: Automatically absorbs fire-elemental magic from the air.

  Special Skills: Fire Magic - Fireball Technique, Flame Shield Technique

  "My goodness! What did I just see? This... this... could it be the legendary Phoenix?" When the third-level magical beast appeared in front of He Dong, he was instantly shocked and left speechless.

  The bird of flame is smaller in size, just like a pigeon, but its appearance is almost indistinguishable from the legendary phoenix, only miniature.

  Moreover, what excited He Dong the most was that the Flame Bird actually possessed two special skills. This made him eager to extract them immediately.

  The fireball technique and the waterball technique are quite similar. As soon as He Dong's mind moves, a fireball will condense, and through experimentation, the size of this fireball can be adjusted at will according to He Dong's intentions. The smallest is like a small flame, and the largest is just slightly larger than a basketball.

  As for the Flame Shield Technique, it was what excited He Dong the most. At first, he guessed that the Flame Shield Technique was to form a flame shield on his hands, but the result exceeded his imagination. The Flame Shield Technique was indeed a defensive spell, but it didn't form any shield; instead, it formed a protective cover made of flames around him.

  When the fire shield technique was used, He Dong suddenly became like a man of fire, but He Dong, who was in the midst of the flames, did not feel any scorching heat, instead he felt an unusual sense of safety.
