"Ding! The Life Choice System has been randomly triggered. The host can make the following choices..."
[Choice One: Calm your mind, dispel any evil thoughts, and silently recite the Great Compassion Mantra a hundred times to receive a random cultivation technique as a reward.]
[Choice Two: Test the waters by secretly merging flames with Jiang Xuanying in front of Feng Xianhuang to receive a random pill as a reward.]
[Choice Three: Stay true to your heart, abandon the idea of merging flames with Jiang Xuanying, and turn to Feng Xianhuang for flame merging to receive a random formation as a reward.]
[Choice Four: Rise as a hero, act boldly, and merge flames with Jiang Xuanying first, then pull Feng Xianhuang into the mix to receive a random divine ability as a reward.]
"Hmm? The system choice has been triggered?"
Looking at the system options that appeared before him, Xiao Ming's eyes lit up slightly, but after scanning through the options, he couldn't help but twitch his mouth.
As expected of the Superhero Life Choice System, it really came up with some impressive options.
Testing the waters? It was clearly an upfront offense, with a hint of mischief.
Staying true to your heart? It was clearly a secret affair, still with that mischievous flavor.
And the last one, rising as a hero, indeed had the appearance of a hero, with the mischievous flavor multiplied several times.
Since that's the case...
"System, I choose four!"
After glancing over the options, Xiao Ming almost without thinking gave the system his command.
A real man should be bold and daring, better to die standing than live kneeling!
He originally wanted to play it safe, but occasionally being a hero seemed like a pretty good choice.
After all.
Flame merging, although it could be defined as dual cultivation, was ultimately just an exchange between flame seeds, far from any intimate affairs between men and women.
So even if he was a bit reckless.
One was his master, the other his junior sister, they wouldn't do anything to him.
"Ding! Congratulations to the host for making a choice, you have received the reward [True Dragon Technique]."
"The reward has been automatically placed in the system space, and can be extracted and inherited with one click after the host completes the choice."
[True Dragon Technique]: A physical combat technique created by the True Martial Great Emperor after observing the True Dragon Clan. After cultivation, one can transform their vital energy into a dragon and use physical strength to combat wild and exotic species!
If you spot this tale on Amazon, know that it has been stolen. Report the violation.
"A physical divine ability?!"
After reading the information about the reward, Xiao Ming couldn't help but raise an eyebrow.
Physical divine abilities are rarer than true essence divine abilities, and it's rare for them to reach a saint level or above.
Unexpectedly.
This time he actually got one, and it was created by a Great Emperor.
It could make up for his shortcomings in pure physical combat.
"Master, please forgive this disciple's offense..."
After the thought settled.
Xiao Ming muttered in his heart, then carefully controlled the Chaos True Fire to collide with the Desolate True Fire.
"Hmm?"
This action naturally couldn't escape Jiang Xuanying's notice.
However, she just looked at Xiao Ming with some surprise, thinking that perhaps he was too aggressive in absorbing the medicinal power and blood energy, causing the Chaos True Fire to lose control.
But in the next moment.
As Xiao Ming collided once more.
She could feel that the Chaos True Fire seemed to be sending a message, yearning to merge into the Desolate True Fire.
This left Jiang Xuanying a bit bewildered.
"Flame merging?!"
"Is this kid trying to merge flames with me? Is he doing it intentionally or is it the flame's instinct?"
Although Jiang Xuanying wasn't purely a fire cultivator, she knew a thing or two about matters between fire cultivators.
If it wasn't someone close, ordinary people wouldn't dare to rashly merge flames, as they could easily be counterattacked or devoured by the other.
Unexpectedly, this little guy dared to approach, was he truly unafraid of his master showing no mercy?
"Well, flame merging is indeed a bit offensive, but considering you are my disciple, I won't hold it against you."
"Just as well, I can take this opportunity to understand the Chaos True Fire."
With that thought, Jiang Xuanying didn't warn Xiao Ming, instead, she split a part of her mind to control the Desolate True Fire, preventing it from counterattacking the Chaos True Fire.
This surprised Xiao Ming, but the next moment he felt delighted.
Since there was no rejection, it was tacit approval!
So why hold back?
With this thought.
Xiao Ming began to act recklessly.
He divided his mind to accelerate the collision of the Chaos True Fire, wanting to merge into the Desolate True Fire faster.
Such an aggressive approach startled Jiang Xuanying, who looked at Xiao Ming with some surprise.
However, Xiao Ming had his eyes closed at this moment, appearing as if he was in deep meditation.
There was no trace of distraction on his face, nothing seemed amiss, as if he was completely immersed in the world of cultivation.
"This guy..."
After a glance, feeling that Xiao Ming had no evil intentions, Jiang Xuanying didn't pay much attention.
She could only control the Desolate True Fire to initially merge with the Chaos True Fire.
A peculiar sensation.
Also followed the soul thoughts attached to the flames, simultaneously transmitting into their minds.
You in me, me in you.
At this moment.
It was as if a new world door had been opened.
Xiao Ming could clearly perceive the internal structure of the Desolate True Fire, and Jiang Xuanying could clearly perceive the internal structure of the Chaos True Fire.
It was as if they had shed their veils, exposing their most genuine and primitive selves to each other's perception.
As time passed.
Their control over the flames and understanding of the Dao of Fire were rapidly improving.
This commotion.
Naturally couldn't escape Feng Xianhuang's notice.
When she sensed that Xiao Ming and Jiang Xuanying were engaging in flame dual cultivation... no, flame merging.
She almost stood up to deliver a strong moral condemnation.
One was a master, the other a senior brother.
To openly engage in intimate fire cultivation behavior in front of her, their junior sister.
This was simply outrageous!
In the next moment.
Feng Xianhuang opened her eyes and glared at Xiao Ming fiercely, feeling a surge of anger and dissatisfaction.
Clearly, they had agreed.
That once he refined the Heavenly Transformation True Fire, he would come to her for flame merging, allowing her to comprehend the mysteries of the Chaos True Fire.
Unexpectedly.
Halfway through, Jiang Xuanying called him over for body refining, and this guy immediately started exchanging with his master.
How was this different from a scoundrel?!
"No, this Empress can't just watch him grow stronger, why should he get to merge flames with the master while this Empress has to sit by and watch?!"
"If I don't want to be outmatched, this Empress must join!"
With this thought, Feng Xianhuang didn't hesitate any longer, immediately splitting a part of her mind.
Controlling the True Phoenix Fire to join in.
After all, it was just an exchange of flames, not something unspeakable.
If they dared to do it openly, why couldn't she join?!
What Empress dignity, what Empress pride, all to the side.
If Xiao Ming grew stronger and she didn't keep up.
In future comparisons, wouldn't she be left behind?
After convincing herself, Feng Xianhuang let go of her inhibitions and directly inserted herself between the two.
This startled Xiao Ming and Jiang Xuanying.
Unexpectedly.
While they were having a good exchange as master and disciple, this junior sister would come and intervene.
He was planning to pull Feng Xianhuang into the mix, but didn't expect her to be so proactive, saving him some effort.
He quickly made room for Feng Xianhuang, pulling her into the exchange.
Although the three felt a bit awkward, they remained silent.
Seemingly unfazed by this shared moment.
But neither Feng Xianhuang nor Jiang Xuanying realized, that a tiny seed was planted in their hearts during this shared moment.
Once the seed sprouted.
Even if more excessive things happened in the future, they both might slowly come to accept it.
