Dragon Martial Sword Supreme

Time, passing by second by second.

However, after the time it took to brew a pot of tea, the expected bodily explosion and death did not come to pass.

On the contrary, the purplish-red flame on Zhao Letian's body was receding at a visible rate to the naked eye.

"This is impossible! No one has ever been able to swallow an Abnormal Fire and not die; how on earth did you do it?"

"Where is the Purple Lotus Demon Fire? I can no longer sense its presence; have you refined it? But in such a short amount of time, absolutely no one could have done so; what exactly have you done?"

When the purplish-red flame on Zhao Letian's body had completely vanished, the people of Skyfire Country finally couldn't help but exclaim in shock, their demeanor extremely agitated.

Even Di Rong, the foremost practitioner of Skyfire Country who had been meditating with closed eyes, could not help but open his eyes for the first time, looking at Zhao Letian in disbelief.

He had also never heard of someone swallowing an Abnormal Fire and not dying.

More importantly, from the looks of things, Zhao Letian appeared to have truly refined the Purple Lotus Demon Fire.

To refine an Abnormal Fire by ingesting it in such a short period of time was unheard of; for the people of Skyfire Country, it was a heaven-defying revelation that could completely overturn their past understanding.

Furthermore, if they could master Zhao Letian's means of refining Abnormal Fire, they could dominate Skyfire Country in the future.

"Tsk tsk, Brother Zilong, you have truly opened my eyes once again, well done! The Abnormal Fire was gained through your strength; why should you return it to them? It's best if you have refined it."

Nalan Yun looked at Zhao Letian and couldn't help but admire.

"Tell me, how did you refine the Purple Lotus Demon Fire?"

Di Rong stood up and walked over, his body wreathed in a faint blaze, his mighty presence vast as an abyss, locking onto Zhao Letian.

"Di Rong, you're overstepping. Since the Abnormal Fire has been refined, naturally there's no need to return it to you. If you trouble my person from the Gray Wolf Kingdom again, don't blame me for not being polite."

At this moment, Baru also stood up. Without moving a step, his nearly ten-foot-tall body covered in golden Scale Armor, just by standing there, exerted a powerful sense of pressure that commanded respect.

"Baru, I don't wish to make things difficult; I just need him to tell me the method of refining the Abnormal Fire."

Di Rong's steps halted, glancing at Baru, then his gaze fell on Zhao Letian and he said with a focused voice.

Baru's presence was indeed a deterrent. If it wasn't necessary, Di Rong didn't want to have a direct confrontation with Baru before entering the Imperial Secret Realm.

"He doesn't need to tell you."

Baru said coldly, clearly not wanting Di Rong to know the method for refining Abnormal Fire.

Baru was well aware that Di Rong's strength was comparable to his own. If Di Rong learned that method to rapidly refine Abnormal Fire, it would be like giving wings to a tiger. Who knows, maybe after some time, Di Rong could surpass him using that method.

Furthermore, if this method fell into the hands of the people of Skyfire Country, it could even potentially enhance the overall strength of its practitioners, allowing Skyfire Country to overtake the other three major nations in one fell swoop.

This was a scenario that Baru absolutely did not want to see.

"Brother Baru is right, Di Rong, know when to stop. You are called the invincible being under Sect Martial Realm; bullying a mere True Martial Seventh Realm person is not honorable. Since he doesn't wish to speak, don't force him."

At this time, Zhou Bin, the foremost practitioner of Thunder Swamp Country who had been silently watching everything, also stood up, his body flickering with Thunder Arcs, looking at Di Rong with a mocking smile.

"Zhou Bin, what business do you have here? How do you know he's unwilling to speak?"

Di Rong furrowed his brows, he could tell that Baru and Zhou Bin were ganging up against him.

"Of course, I am unwilling to speak."

Zhao Letian said coldly, turning around and sitting back down on the side of Gray Wolf Kingdom.

He also realized that the conflict was no longer just between him and the people from Skyfire Country, but between the top talents of various countries, even between the countries themselves.

In other words, there was no need for him to get involved anymore; there were others who would stand up for him, and he could simply sit back and enjoy the show.

As for the method of assimilating Abnormal Fire, he naturally would not tell anyone, and indeed he could not tell anyone.

Because the Purple Lotus Demon Fire had not been assimilated by him at all, but had been swallowed in a single gulp by the Little Snake Martial Soul and directly digested.

"Hehe, Brother Di, since both Brother Baru and Brother Zhou have already expressed their opinions, then it seems to me that this matter can indeed come to an end."

Prince Ye Chenxiao also stood up promptly, looking at Di Rong with a smile that was more a sneer than genuine pleasure.

He was no fool, he naturally knew that allowing Di Rong and Skyfire Country to gain the method of quickly assimilating Abnormal Fire would not be good for Dajin Country.

Seeing this turn of events, the faces of the people from Skyfire Country darkened, as they realized that everyone was targeting their country.

"Fine, since everyone has pleaded on his behalf, let's call it quits on today's matter. Consider the Purple Lotus Demon Fire as a gift from Skyfire Country to Brother Zilong for our first meeting. If there is time in the future, we would welcome your visit to our Skyfire Country."

Seeing that the situation was beyond salvaging, Di Rong's thoughts swiftly changed, and then he suddenly showed Zhao Letian a friendly smile, actively extending goodwill.

"Pfft, what a generous offer, was it really given by Skyfire Country? Can you show some shame?"

Nalan Yun glanced at Di Rong with disdain.

A sharp glint flashed in Di Rong's eyes as he gave Nalan Yun a deep look.

This person had been assisting Zhao Letian and opposing their Skyfire Country. He took note of this and decided that once inside the Imperial Secret Realm, if the opportunity arose, he would be the first to slay Nalan Yun.

"Alright, that's enough, everyone. The friendly exchange has ended, so let's move on to enjoy a performance of song and dance to relax."

At this moment, Ye Chenxiao stepped in to smooth things over.

As the host of the banquet, he did not wish to let the atmosphere grow too tense, which would also reflect poorly on him.

"Clap! Clap!"

After finishing speaking, Ye Chenxiao clapped his hands, and immediately a group of beautiful women in light gauzy dresses, with graceful figures, came to the center of the hall.

At the same time, a slender girl wearing a white veil on her face and holding an ancient zither walked out from the depths of the Royal Palace, directly taking her seat at Dajin Country's side, which was originally reserved for Crown Prince Ye Zhenxiao.

"Let me introduce to you all, this is my younger royal sister, the Princess of Dajin Country, Ye Siyu. The Princess has been fond of the art of music since childhood and has some accomplishments in it. Today, she will take this opportunity to present a piece in honor of all the talents present."

Ye Chenxiao surveyed the crowd, a faint smile on his face.
