Just as the people in the center thought that the situation was settled, an inconspicuous metal rod on the roof of the villa that looked like a lightning rod suddenly flashed with a few electric arcs. Then, the blazing white flames that swept through the sky suddenly changed direction and gathered towards the metal rod, as if they were attracted by the lightning rod.
Zhaolong's smile was still on his face when he realized that things weren't as he'd imagined. The villa was still the same, and the soul burner's flames didn't even burn a feather on the roof, let alone Lin Yi.
"What's going on?" Zhaolong asked, surprised. No one came to answer his question."Is it malfunctioning? It doesn't make sense!"
Zhaolong activated the soul burner subconsciously again, and another ball of fire fell. This time, Zhaolong's eyes widened as he stared at it. He could finally see the metal stick absorbing the fire.
