Liao Tingyan was attracted by the red flame, which was really beautiful, as if it had magical power.

She looked fascinated. A sudden chill came from the back of her neck, and her whole body was awakened.

Sima Jiao’s hand, which was as cold as a dead person, was on her neck. He pressed her neck and pulled the collar forward slightly. Liao Tingyan could only be pushed to the red lotus flame by him.

At the center of this layer was a small blue pool, in which the only red lotus grew, and the flame burned above the red lotus out of thin air. With Liao Tingyan’s superficial knowledge of the cultivation world, she could be sure that this thing must be very precious. But Sima Jiao was very casual. He led her to the red lotus flame and unceremoniously pulled a piece of red lotus petals down. 

Liao Tingyan heard a cry but it muffled and shut up immediately.

The cry was of a child. 

Did the flame make it? She suspected she had auditory hallucinations.

“Do you know what this is?” Sima Jiao casually crushed the petal and threw it on the ground. Liao Tingyan vaguely heard a sob again.

Liao Tingyan said, “Uh, a flower?”

Sima Jiao glanced at her strangely, “You don’t know anything. Why did they let you in like this?” The Demon Realm had fallen into decline.

Liao Tingyan said, “Yes, no one said anything to me.” 

The main reason was that she wasn’t familiar with her master and senior brothers. She didn’t know any inside stories. If she knew it, she wouldn’t come here by pretending to be dead.

Sima Jiao didn’t want to explain, but said, “You have to come here to water this thing every day.”

Liao Tingyan: Are you serious? Although there is a flower under the flame, the flower is against the flame. Will it not extinguish the fire?

But Sima Jiao didn’t seem to be joking at all. He left after speaking, leaving her there alone. The unscrupulous boss left behind the inexplicable task on the first day of the new employee’s employment, and walked away! The dog boss had no conscience!

Liao Tingyan didn’t dare to chase him. She looked at the flame that seemed to have grown up. Soon she realized that it wasn’t an illusion. With the disappearance of the ancestor’s figure, the original small ball of flame instantly doubled, as if a shrunken weak chicken had returned to normal from crouching its head.

The sudden increase in flames burned a handful of her hair ends.

And the flame seemed to sway proudly. Flame? Proud? Liao Tingyan once again wondered if there was something wrong with her eyes. But she didn’t hesitate anymore. She just had to water it.

There was water in the small pond under the red lotus. She took out a bamboo tube from the Qiankun pouch, scooped the water and was ready to pour it on the flame. Who knew that the flame would jump suddenly, and a crack appeared like a big mouth. From the crack, a flame shot straight towards Liao Tingyan.

Hearing a sigh, the flame burst into tears.

“Bad guy! Bad guy! You poured water on me! I’m going to burn you!” The voice was like a grumpy little baby, which was different from the ancestor.

Liao Tingyan: In the cultivation world, flames can speak, which is also normal. Don’t panic, hold on. I can do it.

“Puff—” The flame seemed to be really angry. It looked like a puffed out fire, very arrogant.

Unexpectedly, watering a flower would also endanger her life. Liao Tingyan moved a little away, thought for a while, and found a gourd-shaped watering can from her Qiankun pouch.

Clear Sky Valley, had professional farmers. As a disciple of Clear Sky Valley, the original owner of this body also had a full set of tools. Although she didn’t use it very much, the current owner who had the full wealth with her found its use.

She poured water, pointed the gourd watering can at the spitting flames, and then dodged the chase of the flames. Then she watered the flower like a guerrilla warfare.

The flame’s arrogance and anger quickly turned into crying. It conceded defeat as it couldn’t beat it. It was very flexible and stretchable, and said in a pitiful tone, “Don’t pour water on me anymore. I’m so uncomfortable.”

While saying that, it coughed twice. Two small sparks spurted out of the gap formed by the flame. Oh, this guy couldn’t breathe fire after she poured too much water.

Liao Tingyan put away the gourd watering can then thought whether the task of watering the flowers was considered complete.

At this time, the flame spoke to her again, “I have never seen you. I haven’t seen anyone else in a long time. Who are you and how could you be brought over by that person?”

When talking about ‘that person’, the flame’s voice was very small, as if for fear of being heard.

After being there for so long, Liao Tingyan hadn’t said a word to anyone, and she was almost dumb. Now even if there was a flame in front of her, she talked with it, “I came here not long before. I came here to serve Shizu. “

The flame suddenly jumped, “You are a disciple of Gengchen Xianfu! I knew that someone would come to rescue me from that person. All right, since you are also a disciple of Gengchen Xianfu, you are not allowed to water me next time!”

It was internal turmoil in the company. The boss gave her a task, which probably harmed the interests of other people in the company. So this person stood up and threatened her not to do this. Was she in a job survival plane instead of Xianxia?

Liao Tingyan said, “If I don’t water you, how can I deal with Shizu?”

The flame seemed to put hands on its hips, and said confidently, “Aren’t you his woman? You will be fine if you play with him!”

Liao Tingyan: “???” Wait!! How did he come to this conclusion?

“The person he dared to bring here must be his people. You are a woman, that’s his woman. What’s wrong? The person who sent you didn’t teach you…hurry up and go. I can’t stand this kind of life anymore!”

She heard that it had been imprisoned there for five hundred years, so its condition was really serious. Liao Tingyan ignored the flames and continued to water it.

Compared with a flame evil force that only sprayed small sparks, she still had to bow to the more evil ancestor’s force. The company stood in line, it was so cruel.

The flame was sprinkled by her and began to curse.

“Sima Jiao, you have no conscience! You deceived your master and destroyed your ancestors. You are rebellious! You are crazy. You take me out, and we will die together! And you, a stinky woman, dare to pour water on me? Just wait! One day after I recover, I will burn you to ashes and sprinkle it in front of the bastard Sima Jiao!”
