Divine War Pill Emperor

"We’re not going to die."

"Neither I nor my woman will die."

Jiang Chen’s words shook Liang Yiyi to her core.

Her face flushed red with excitement.

’His woman... Can I really be his woman?’

She didn’t know the answer, but a sliver of hope sparked within her.

In that moment, Jiang Chen was so heroic and extraordinary, a man shining with a dazzling light that captivated Liang Yiyi.

His brilliance outshone the flames that were about to descend.

Even if it meant perishing in a sea of fire with this man right now, it would almost seem like an honor.

SWOOSH!

Jiang Chen steadied Liang Yiyi and gave her a calm, unhurried smile.

"Yiyi, today I will take you to ride upon the Fire Sparrow and admire the boundless scenery."

He swept Liang Yiyi into his arms and suddenly looked up, an even more fiery light flashing in his eyes.

Within his eyes, a great bird, just as fiery red, soared freely.

’A mere Fire Sparrow? What can it do to me?’

Jiang Chen remained motionless, standing there to meet the flames from above.

It seemed he did not fear the Fire Sparrow’s Pill Fire.

He was fearless.

He stood there, tall and unyielding.

WHOOSH...

The sky full of flames finally descended, crashing down viciously upon Jiang Chen.

It completely engulfed both Jiang Chen and Liang Yiyi.

FWOOSH...

The raging inferno burned, filling everyone with terror and unease.

"No..."

Jiang Han let out a mournful cry. Watching his son be consumed by the Fire Sparrow’s flames, his heart ached with a pain he was powerless to stop.

"My son..."

Xiao Yun wept, forced to watch her own son perish in the sea of fire.

Her mind roared, and she fainted on the spot.

The members of the Jiang Family all lowered their heads, sighing endlessly.

Could anyone possibly survive the Fire Sparrow’s Pill Fire?

No, no one could survive.

They would be burned to ash by the Fire Sparrow’s Pill Fire.

"Hahaha..."

"Dead! You’re dead! You’re finally dead...!"

Wen Bufan burst out laughing, his heart pounding with excitement.

He had just watched Jiang Chen get swallowed by the Fire Sparrow’s Pill Fire. There was no doubt—Jiang Chen was dead for sure.

He couldn’t help but laugh. This was an absolute victory for him.

A complete triumph over Jiang Chen.

Immediately, he prostrated himself before the Fire Sparrow once more.

His piety was absolute.

Lin Hai and the people from the City Lord’s Mansion were all aghast. 𝙛𝒓𝓮𝒆𝔀𝒆𝙗𝓷𝒐𝙫𝒆𝙡.𝒄𝓸𝓶

A living person—no, two living people—had been burned to death by the inferno in an instant.

It was a truly tragic sight.

In midair, the Fire Sparrow was ecstatic. The fellow who had dared to provoke it had been burned to death by its Pill Fire.

CHIRP CHIRP...

It let out a gleeful cry.

But then, a moment later, the Fire Sparrow abruptly stopped its chirping.

Its body trembled in midair.

Its blood-red eyes stared intently at Jiang Chen below, who was still enveloped in flames.

It had thought its Pill Fire would be more than enough to burn Jiang Chen to a crisp, to reduce the insolent human who challenged it to ashes.

But at this moment, it was stunned.

The Pill Fire it had spewed was now disappearing at an incredible speed.

"No, this is impossible..."

It cried out in shock without realizing it.

’This is terrifying! Unless I retract my Pill Fire myself, it shouldn’t just disappear.’

Yet it could clearly feel the Pill Fire vanishing.

SWISH!

After burning for a while, the Fire Sparrow’s Pill Fire slowly faded away into nothing.

In its place, a figure stood with his head held high.

His silhouette was as imposing as a mountain.

It was Jiang Chen, holding Liang Yiyi in his arms.

The Fire Sparrow’s Pill Fire on Jiang Chen’s body gradually disappeared. Finally, even the small flicker of flame on his head suddenly vanished into his body.

At that moment, Liang Yiyi was the first to be dumbfounded.

She had thought she and Jiang Chen would be burned to death.

But just now, she realized that when the flames burned, they hadn’t even touched the hem of her clothes. All the fire had surged toward Jiang Chen.

Then, under her astonished gaze, all of those flames entered Jiang Chen’s body, absorbed by him.

Jiang Chen had actually absorbed the Fire Sparrow’s flames.

Not a single drop was left.

"Young Master, you..."

She still felt like she was dreaming.

Jiang Chen smiled faintly.

"This is nothing special for me."

In his eyes, the fiery-red great bird continued to soar without pause.

It seemed even more majestic than the Fire Sparrow in the sky.

"Your eyes..."

Liang Yiyi stared at Jiang Chen’s eyes. The bizarre, constantly dancing Firebird within them was so magical.

Jiang Chen didn’t explain.

BOOM!

The Jiang Family was stunned. Jiang Chen was alive.

"Heavens, the Young Master... he wasn’t burned to death!"

"How is that possible? Am I seeing things?"

A man who could not be burned by fire—that was Jiang Chen.

This had happened right before everyone’s eyes.

Jiang Han was stupefied, his mouth agape.

Elder Qi’s face was also a mask of utter shock.

As for Wen Bufan, he leaped up as if he had seen a ghost.

He pointed at Jiang Chen, his eyes filled with disbelief.

"He... How could he still be alive?"

"Impossible! He was already dead!"

But when he rubbed his eyes, he saw that Jiang Chen was, in fact, still alive.

Very much alive, without a single hair singed.

BUZZ...

Wen Bufan felt like his brain had short-circuited.

"Guardian Beast, burn him to death...!"

He went mad, screaming at the Guardian Fire Sparrow.

The Fire Sparrow’s red eyes widened.

It screeched, "How can you devour my Pill Fire?"

Jiang Chen replied indifferently, "You’re just a little Fire Sparrow. Did you think mere flames could harm me?"

"Got any more fire? Bring it on."

The Fire Sparrow’s dignity was severely provoked. This was an insult to it.

"I’ll burn you to death...!"

It spat out Pill Fire once again, and a sky full of flames burned toward Jiang Chen.

But the moment the flames reached the top of Jiang Chen’s head, its Pill Fire was like water being sucked in by a whale.

SWOOSH!

It plunged directly into the crown of Jiang Chen’s head and vanished without a trace.

Not even a wisp of smoke appeared.

It just disappeared.

What?

Wen Bufan paled in shock.

He stared at Jiang Chen in horror. The Jiang Chen of this moment was just too bizarre.

He had actually sucked in the Fire Sparrow’s Pill Fire and remained completely unscathed.

"Damn it, how can this be?"

"Damn it, damn it..."

He cursed endlessly, though it was unclear who he was cursing.

But he had watched with his own eyes as Jiang Chen withstood the Pill Fire of the Fire Sparrow Kingdom’s Guardian Fire Sparrow.

It was just that terrifying.

GULP...

Beside him, even Lin Hai, a Martial Master at the Peak of the Ninth Heaven, swallowed hard.

It was too shocking, too unbelievable.

The members of the Jiang Family were all frozen in place.

The Fire Sparrow they worshipped couldn’t harm Jiang Chen in the slightest.

Is a Fire Sparrow like this still worthy of their worship?

SWOOSH!

Jiang Han shot up from the ground.

He was furious. If the Fire Sparrow couldn’t hurt his son, why was he still kneeling on the ground?

Elder Qi also rose abruptly.

Now, he realized, the Fire Sparrow didn’t seem so terrifying after all.

The members of the Jiang Family rose to their feet in unison.

In their hearts, their faith was fading.

Rather than believing in the Guardian Fire Sparrow, it would be better to believe in Jiang Chen.
