Everyone thought Lin Xuan was joking again. How could the flame in your hand possibly be the Clear Lotus Earth Core Fire? The Clear Lotus Earth Core Fire is with the Pill King; the Celestial King is even negotiating with him for it!
"It's really the Clear Lotus Earth Core Fire," Lin Xuan said. "The Pill King never actually obtained the flame. Otherwise, why didn't he admit to it before? He even wanted to trade flames with me because he doesn't have it at all."
Everyone was stunned. Looking at Lin Xuan's serious expression, it seemed he wasn't lying.
Could the flame in Lin Xuan's hand truly be the Clear Lotus Earth Core Fire? Could it be that the Pill King wasn't lying before, either? He wasn't trying to pass the buck to Lin Xuan by denying he had the flame… he denied it because he truly never obtained it!
