Xu Wuyi opened his eyes.
Reflected in his pupils were the Celestial Wolf Illusion behind Milo and the suppressed Undying Flame on Milo's body.
The tiny flames flickered stubbornly around the wounds, like candles in the wind, on the verge of being extinguished at any moment.
But… they were still burning.
As long as they burned, they were not extinguished.
Xu Wuyi suddenly understood.
The characteristics of the Undying Flame were "undying" and "incineration."
But before all that, it first had to be "fire."
The fundamental meaning of fire is combustion, a form of motion. This was his most basic understanding of "fire," shaped by his Federation education.
This understanding wasn't necessarily the absolute truth, but it was his own most direct interpretation.
