”You?”

Looking at Zi Yan, Lin Feng thought for a moment, then said, ”Just wait for me here. After I settle this matter, we’ll go there together.”

After speaking, Lin Feng worried that Zi Yan would be bored alone, so he glanced at the girl in his arms and said, ”Chen’er, stay with Zi Yan for a while. After I finish things over there, we’ll go into seclusion together.”

”Mm, I’ll listen to whatever Big Brother Lin Feng says.”

Dan Chen naturally had no objections. She nodded obediently. Seeing this, Lin Feng smiled, gently patted the heads of Zi Yan and Dan Chen, and then hurriedly left.

After all, Xiao Yixian’s Woeful Poison Body was like a sword of Damocles hanging over both of their heads all this time. Now that he finally saw hope of completely resolving it, Lin Feng naturally wasn’t going to miss the chance.

”You’re finally ready to make the trade?”

Arriving at the reception room where Xiao Yan was waiting, Lin Feng didn’t waste any time and went straight to the point. He was in a hurry to absorb the Three Thousand Burning Flame and had no time to chatter with this guy.

”That’s right. I’m indeed very interested in the information about that Heavenly Flame you mentioned. I just want to know, how do you intend to trade it?”

Because of their previous dealings, Xiao Yan knew Lin Feng wasn’t someone who could be tricked easily, so he didn’t waste time either and also cut straight to the topic.

”You tell me the location of that tomb. I’ll have Xiao Yixian bring people to check it out. Once she confirms that the tomb you described is indeed there, she’ll notify me. Then I’ll give you the information about the Heavenly Flame.”

Seeing that Xiao Yan didn’t bother with nonsense either, Lin Feng directly laid out the process.

Hearing this, Xiao Yan frowned, glanced at Xiao Yixian behind Lin Feng, and said, ”This process seems unfair to me. I won’t mention the order of things for now, but you’re asking her to confirm whether my information is real. Then how am I supposed to know whether your information is real?”

”Heh, as long as your information is real, naturally I’ll prove the authenticity of mine. Besides, we’ve traded several times already. When have I ever given you false information?”

Seeing Xiao Yan’s slight dissatisfaction, Lin Feng replied calmly.

Xiao Yan fell silent.

It was true — in all their previous transactions, Lin Feng had never given him anything fake.

Although the Three Thousand Burning Flame information had become common knowledge after he arrived in Central Plains, back in the more isolated Northwest Continent, that information had indeed been considered significant.

If he hadn’t known about the Three Thousand Burning Flame back then, he probably wouldn’t have come to Central Plains so early, nor pushed himself so hard in alchemy, nor eventually entered the Star Region.

Even though he failed to subdue the Three Thousand Burning Flame that time, the information itself had been genuine.

Seeing Xiao Yan still hesitating, Lin Feng decided to push further and added, ”Since you seem serious about this trade, I’ll give you one extra piece of information. That Heavenly Flame — if it ran into the Heavenly Flame Ranking’s sixth-ranked Eight Wasteland Destruction Flame — it could eat it like a snack.”

”Eat the Eight Wasteland Destruction Flame like a snack?!”

Xiao Yan was shocked. His voice shook with disbelief.

At the same time, his jaw dropped and he shot to his feet, staring wide-eyed at Lin Feng. Before this, he had assumed that the Heavenly Flame was exactly the sixth-ranked Eight Wasteland Destruction Flame.

But he never expected Lin Feng to say the Heavenly Flame could completely crush it.

”Don’t tell me… that Heavenly Flame is the fourth-ranked Gold Emperor Incinerating Heavenly Flame?!”

Thinking of the golden flame his little girlfriend occasionally used, Xiao Yan silently made a guess in his heart. After all, the Eight Wasteland Destruction Flame was already ranked sixth on the Heavenly Flame Ranking.

There weren’t many flames above it to choose from.

Besides, the fifth-ranked Life Spirit Flame was said to grant someone the long lifespan of a magical beast and allow its wielder to use its massive life force to accelerate the growth of medicinal ingredients.

But when it came to pure combat power, it might not even surpass the Eight Wasteland Destruction Flame. So the only flame that made sense was the one ranked above it — the fourth-ranked Gold Emperor Incinerating Heavenly Flame!

In the next moment, Xiao Yan’s eyes grew fiery hot. Even his previously steady breathing turned heavy and intense.

”If I can successfully obtain that Heavenly Flame, my Flame Mantra might directly evolve into a Heaven Class technique. And with that, even Xun’er’s clan would have no choice but to look at me differently!”

The more he imagined the benefits he would gain from devouring that Heavenly Flame, the tighter Xiao Yan clenched his fists. Right now, he had made up his mind — no matter what it took, he had to get information about that Heavenly Flame!

But soon, he also understood why Lin Feng didn’t dare provoke that flame himself. Even though he had never seen a wild Gold Emperor Incinerating Heavenly Flame and had no idea how terrifying its true strength was…

The ninth-ranked Three Thousand Burning Flame alone was enough to make high-level Dou Zuns feel terrified. The gap between each rank in the top ten was unbelievably huge.

From this logic, the fourth-ranked Gold Emperor Incinerating Heavenly Flame had probably reached the peak realm of Dou Sheng.

”Even if I know where it is, getting it won’t be easy at all…”

Just thinking about the words ”Dou Sheng” made Xiao Yan’s scalp tingle. He couldn’t help but feel a bit bitter. Still — complaints were just complaints. There was no way he’d let information about a heaven-defying flame slip away.

Whether it was possible or not, he had to try.

”Haaah…”

Taking a deep breath, Xiao Yan finally said, ”Fine. I agree. We’ll do the trade your way. But since I’m giving you the location first, you’ll have to write an official note stating the full details of the transaction and leave your soul imprint on it.”

Although Lin Feng had never played tricks on him before…

Xiao Yan wanted to be fully safe, so having an official proof was necessary. With Lin Feng’s current status, if he dared to go back on his word with a written agreement and soul imprint, the cost of breaking trust would be enormous.

”Okay.”

Lin Feng didn’t refuse.

After all, they were enemies by nature. They were only cooperating temporarily because both needed something from each other. Naturally, there was no real trust between them.

Then Lin Feng lightly brushed his storage ring, took out a scroll, and began engraving the details of their transaction into it using his soul power.
