632 The Reason of His Absurd Lightning Tribulation (1/2)

”I'm glad.”

Alex finally released her after a while. ”I thought my Fire Phoenix Seed might weaken you.”

”What do you mean, Master?” Sherry tilted her head, confused by his words. She just got the exact opposite of that to the point she could proudly say she had become overpowered.

Alex forgot that Sherry had no knowledge about a Celestial Fox. She knew she was one of them, but that was it. He explained everything he knew to Sherry and the danger that might befall to her.

After a few minutes, Sherry only smiled. ”If that is all, I don't mind. I have a dream, and that dream has been fulfilled. Even dying right now is fine-”

Alex put his hand on her mouth, looking at her with anguish. ”Don't say that again!”

Sherry was startled when he stopped her from talking, but she didn't know her words actually hurt him in the process. She looked down, feeling guilty. Even her ears tilted down and her tail curled up. ”I'm sorry.”

”You are one of my most important people. After going through that betrayal, I have been skeptical about it. I want to be sure I don't make the wrong choice again, and once I make a decision, it will stay forever.” Alex smiled sadly before retracting his hand. ”So, don't say it like that.”

”Yes. I won't say it again.” Sherry nodded furiously.

”Alright. We shouldn't linger around this topic again.” Alex raised his hand as he noticed the awkward situation. ”Nelson is going to inform me tomorrow or the day after. I have told Stina and Kyle that I want to bring them there if I can use the Soul Altar with all of you. If I can't, you can stay here and cultivate. What do you think?”

”I agree with it.” Sherry nodded. ”I have no problem in staying since I also want to get used to my current fire… That's right. Since I have a Pure Fire, how about Master teaching me the technique to evolve my Pure Fire? In that case, I won't need to rely on the Pure Fire inside the Phoenix Seed again.”

Alex thought for a moment and nodded. The Fire God didn't say he couldn't teach anyone about this. Besides, if he had a disciple that had Pure Fire as well, he might want to make the legacy exist. In that case, it would be better for Sherry to learn the technique too. However, he found one problem.

”Sherry… Although it's temporary, you can use my evolved Pure Fire right now. I think you need to learn the new technique I have got from the system first. It's a technique called Fire Authority…”

Alex began explaining about the Fire Authority, convincing Sherry to first learn this technique before evolving her fire.

”I see. Master wants me to increase my attack power first. After all, I can temporarily use that Pure Fire. After mastering the technique, I can begin my other training.” Sherry thought for a moment. ”I understand. I will go according to Master's plan.”

”Thank you, Master.” Sherry put a wide smile.

”Since you are alright, I'm going out first. Besides, you should put on clothes.” Alex turned around and left.

Outside, the system suddenly informed him.

[Host, Nelson is calling you.]

”Why is the timing so perfect?”

[It's not perfect. I'm just waiting for you until you finish your business with Sherry.]

”…” Alex was speechless and asked with a weird face. ”Don't tell me… He has been contacting me for a few days…”

[No. It is coming from this morning, where you are too focused on Sherry. If you are not awakened in another few hours, I will still give you the notification.]

”Oh.” Alex let out a sigh of relief. ”Alright. Thank you, System.”

[You're welcome.]

Alex took out Nelson's card from his Inventory. ”I'm here.”

”Young Master, Zekhram is going to start the refining tomorrow. If you want to ask about the Soul Altar and watch him, it will be better to ask today.” Since Lin Xingzhi informed him about Alex's condition before, he cut to the chase.

”Alright. I will go right now.” Alex nodded.

”I have also understood the reason for your Lightning Tribulation that somehow goes berserk. You might want to ask Atlas for the details.”

”Noted.”

”Then, I'm waiting for you.”

”Sure.” Alex then tossed the card into his Inventory before going to Sherry, who was still in the hut. ”Sherry. I'm going.”
