Chapter 68 Partner, the Fire Thief's sword will have to pierce my chest first before it can hurt you.
"Not only to hunt Titans, but also to rob them of their fire...?"
When Tian heard Bai E recount Xia's discovery, her eyes widened in disbelief, and her voice was filled with deep worry.
The ultimate purpose of this Fire Thief, the black-robed swordsman, in killing the Titan has finally come to light.
I wonder just how terrifyingly powerful the Fire Thief will become after seizing the Timefire of Oronis.
Bai E nodded solemnly and said in a deep voice:
"Yes, just like the 'Journey of Fire'... At that moment, Teacher Xia believed that the appearance of the Fire-Stealing Walkers might be a sign of the Black Tide spreading further."
Aglaia's voice remained calm and even, clearly not immediately believing Xia's conclusion:
"Regardless of whether the inference is true or false, it is far more aggressive than we imagined."
A sharp glint flashed in Bai E's eyes, and he said firmly:
"But this madness is also our opportunity: since the spark is its target, humans can lure it into a trap."
"When we went to the Abyss, Teacher Xia had already left the Holy City with the Fire of Sersis and rushed to the battlefield to make arrangements ahead of time."
Aglaia's gaze was sharp, her tone carrying a hint of dissatisfaction with Xia's unauthorized actions, her brows slightly furrowed:
"Tell me, why do you think the ending won't be the loss of yet another spark?"
Bai'er turned to look at the little gray-haired boy beside her, who was standing with his arms crossed over his chest, and said with complete trust in his eyes:
"Because this time, the great power from beyond the heavens is also standing beside us..."
"The key lies with her."
Little Gray Fur's big, golden eyes widened in surprise, his face full of confusion.
She tilted her head, pondered for a moment, tapped her chin with her fingertip, and asked:
"I have a star core; can I use it to impersonate a spark?"
Bai E smiled slightly, "You also need another companion."
Just then, a faint, excited voice came from beside Little Gray Fur, and the little body swayed slightly: "Mi..."
Immediately afterwards, Mimi slowly floated in front of Little Gray Fur. Her voice temporarily changed to a human tone, but she still stuttered severely, saying each word slowly and deliberately:
"Could it be... you're talking about someone else?"
Aglaia's face turned towards Mimi and Little Gray, as if she instantly understood everything.
She crossed her arms and said thoughtfully:
"I see. Bai'er, the 'battlefield' you mentioned earlier…"
"Could it be Suspended Peak City?"
Bai E nodded without hesitation, his tone resolute:
"Exactly. You all surely remember that my partner and her companions performed an amazing miracle during the Battle of Nicardoli, awakening the past of Suspended Peak City."
"This is the key to victory—we must repeat our old trick, using the power of Oronis to open the Gate of the Past and lure the enemy in..."
"Then, the Fire-Stealing Walker was 'sealed' within the labyrinth of time."
Aglaia nodded in agreement, a hint of approval flashing in her eyes, and said decisively:
"Indeed, Eulonis has fallen, and Janus's divine power now belongs to Ohma. If we can reclaim the fire, that swordsman will have no way to escape."
At this point, although Aglaia still harbored resentment towards Naksha, she couldn't help but offer a word of praise, her tone softening somewhat:
"It's not about fighting a bloody battle, but about winning by surprise—a very clever approach."
Then, Aglaia turned to Mimi and asked in a deep voice:
"Little guy, can you do it?"
Little Gray Fur also turned his head, looking at Mimi expectantly with his eyes full of anticipation.
Mimi puffed out her little chest, patted her chest, and looked very confident.
She put her hands on her hips, but involuntarily let out a "mi mi mi" sound.
"Do you mean throw the black guy over there and lock him up again?"
"Because there are memory fragments, opening the entrance is no problem, but the rest..."
As Mimi spoke, she turned to look at the little gray-haired boy, calling out cheerfully, her tail wagging gently:
"All I can say is—I believe that with them and the Trail Blazers together, they can do anything!"
Upon hearing this, Little Gray's eyes lit up, and a look of surprise appeared on his face.
Looking at little Mimi with longing in her eyes, she said, "Really? Then I'll make a wish—"
When Mimi saw the little gray-haired boy looking like this, she was so excited that her eyes drooped and her little head shook slightly.
It even prompted Mimi to blurt out three words, her voice clear and resonant.
"Please... I'm so confused..."
"Can you feel everyone's enthusiastic gaze? We can't let them down on such an important occasion!"
Then, Aglaia, with an encouraging look, said:
"You seem quite excited... You seem very confident."
Aglaia then changed the subject, recounting Ohma's recent situation to the group, her tone tinged with seriousness:
"You may not know this, but at the same time my master went missing, the Senate was also in a state of emergency. The Kaines faction has learned about the Tree Court incident and has begun to secretly build momentum. I'm afraid they will take action before the next Citizens' Assembly."
Tibo frowned, her little hands clutching the hem of her clothes tightly, and asked with a worried expression:
"What are they planning to do..."
Aglaia's voice instantly turned cold, tinged with disdain, and a cold glint flashed in her eyes:
"Short-sighted ambitious people probably think the Golden Descendants are about to be exhausted and are preparing to make moves in advance, right? One day, we will also have to face the problem of 'people'."
"But… not now. I have already sent Xia Die to the Senate with a message. With her there, we can stabilize the situation for the time being."
Aglaia faced Bai'er and said solemnly:
"Bai'er, I hope to reach a consensus with you: we must take down that Fire Thief in one fell swoop and achieve victory. After that, we will also have our own trump cards to face the challenge from the Senate."
Bai E nodded without hesitation, straightened his back, and replied in a deep voice:
"Of course, I'm willing to take the lead."
After giving Bai'er her instructions, Aglaia looked apologetically at Little Grey and Mimi, her tone gentle and her eyes filled with guilt:
"I'm sorry, Your Excellency, but Ohmma is currently facing internal and external troubles, which has once again put you in the spotlight."
"But the situation is urgent, and there is really no room for detailed discussion with you... The core of this matter is you, and I respect your choice."
Little Gray was still a little worried. He frowned, gently scratched his cheek, and asked anxiously:
How can we ensure the feasibility of the plan?
Tibo quickly spoke up, taking a small step forward:
"Although my mastery of the 'Gate of a Hundred Realms' is not as good as Tian's, if everyone can buy some time, I can also open a beautiful gate."
Aglaia continued, "As for whether or not we can seize the fire seed, that depends on what Kexia is capable of."
Bai E nodded, his tone filled with complete trust: "Based on my understanding of that person... he can definitely do it."
Thinking of the immense danger of facing the black-robed swordsman, the fire-stealing wanderer, Little Gray scratched his head worriedly, a hint of hesitation on his face, and then asked again:
How can I be guaranteed safety?
Bai E's tone instantly became extremely heavy, his eyes filled with a resolute look:
"Frankly, we cannot guarantee that."
Before he finished speaking, he made a firm promise to the little gray-haired boy, his eyes burning with determination:
"But... for the Fire Thief's sword to hurt you, it would have to pierce my chest first."
...
"elder brother..."
Xiao Wu, imprisoned by Qian Renxue, is currently curled up in the cold cage, but she can still see the sky above. Her voice is thick with nasal tone.
Upon seeing this scene, Tang San's image involuntarily appeared in her mind, and her eyes reddened slightly.
The words Bai'er spoke to Little Gray Fur were so familiar; every single one struck a chord in her heart.
Isn't that exactly what Tang San once told her, that he would protect her?
One was trampled over his body, the other was a sharp sword piercing his chest.
What a touching and romantic vow!
But she is now imprisoned here by Qian Renxue, her hands are bound by chains, and she is likely to be taken by the Spirit Hall to be used as a spirit ring or spirit bone.
But when will her third brother, her Tang San, come to save her?
Although Tang San has already left Heaven Dou City.
However, Da Ming and Er Ming caused a great commotion in Tian Dou City, especially since Xiao Hui Mao was also involved and even killed the Titan Giant Ape.
The news had already spread like wildfire.
Anyone with half a brain would know that they are now in someone else's hands and in dire need of rescue.
However, Tang San has not appeared yet, and there has not been a single trace of him.
However, given Xiao Wu's love-struck nature, she was incredibly relieved that Tang San hadn't come to save her, her eyes filled with lingering fear.
After all, if Tang San really came, he would be facing the unfathomable Little Gray Hair.
Tang San will definitely die without a burial place, and not even his remains will be found.
She now regrets not sacrificing herself to Tang San sooner and becoming a part of him.
In that case, she might be resurrected by Tang San in the future and stay by his side forever.
But what about now?
She was held in Qian Renxue's hand, with a little gray-haired boy standing guard beside her.
There is absolutely no one in this world who can save her...
The information about the Titan Giant Ape, the Azure Bull Python, and Xiao Wu was quickly relayed to Tang San by the spies left in Tian Dou City by the Clear Sky Sect.
Tang San was so angry that he gritted his teeth, clenched his fists, and felt like his lungs were about to explode.
Those are all his future soul rings and soul bones!
Three 100,000-year spirit rings and three 100,000-year spirit bones—all of them fell into the hands of others…
However, upon further reflection, Tang San's eyes turned sinister again, realizing that it was merely three 100,000-year spirit rings. He felt that it was completely unnecessary for him to confront Little Gray Hair prematurely for this reason.
He saw his future soul ring combination above the sky—eight red and one crimson gold!
He is unaware of the existence of the Sea God's bestowed spirit rings, only believing that he will give Xiao Wu the first six spirit rings after reviving her.
All the remaining spirit rings were obtained by him personally hunting down 100,000-year-old spirit beasts.
Even without the three 100,000-year soul rings and soul bones of Da Ming, Er Ming, and Xiao Wu, he can still search elsewhere, and even find stronger ones!
Of course, the anger in his heart was still hard to quell, and his chest heaved slightly.
Especially when I saw what Bai E said to Little Gray Hair on the sky—"For the Fire Thief's sword to harm you, it must first pierce my chest!"
Tang San was so angry that he trembled all over. He slammed his fist into the tree trunk next to him, and the bark fell off in a flurry.
Isn't this blatant plagiarism of what he said to Xiao Wu?
The entire Onfaros is plagiarizing things from their Tang Sect; it's utterly despicable!
