Lu Xun's idea was simple; if this Soul Devouring Flame insisted on chasing me down, why not use it to my advantage and attract attention to myself?
After all, they have no clue that this Soul Devouring Flame is actively pursuing me...
They would only think: "We were clearly the slower ones to escape, but this flame ignored us entirely. Turns out, the Purple Palace has implemented some measures!"
Blame it on the fact that the flame can't talk.
Lu Xun was incredibly anxious, as the speed of the Soul Devouring Flame was terrifying. With his current capability, if he came into contact with it, he would end up dead beyond redemption.
Even the process of scattering the ashes would be skipped, because there would be no ashes left behind.
Jiang Nan'an glanced at Lu Xun, who was fleeing at top speed, and then took another look at the persistent flame behind him. He felt that he could not just stand idly by. He should at least lend Elder Lu a hand.
