He summoned another water ball and threw it on himself drenching him from head to toe. He hid his mouth with his wet sleeve and slowly walked inside.
Raging flames burned through the walls and the wooden ceiling. Heat burned through his wet skin, instantly drying it of moisture. As an aquatic creature, he had always found it hard to handle extreme heat.
"Long,...Long," he shouted as he strode to the room they had the confrontation with the boss.
A loud bang was heard inside the closed room. Xia rushed towards it and touched the door handle. But it was already scalding hot from the flames.
A small layer of his palm turned bright red and started to blister immediately.
"Xia!! What are you still doing here? Stay out, don't..... Don't come inside," Long shouted from inside. A loud shuffle was heard.
Xia Che started to panic. "Long, are you hurt? Please come out, or else I'm coming in," Xia shouted at the closed door.
