As soon as they had stepped onto the road, the flames instantly devoured the entire thicket.
"That was close!" Chen Ziqian said as he watched the flames leap up three meters high, wiping the sweat from his forehead. It was very hot, so hot that it felt like all the pores on his body had opened up.
Ling Yuanhang put Suxin down as well and gasped for air. In terms of physical strength, he had used up much more than Chen Ziqian. If this road had been any longer, he wasn't sure if he could have kept going.
"Did we just... survive a life-and-death situation?" Suxin said, covering her chest, feeling her heart still racing over its normal speed.
The red flames rose to the sky, turning into thick black smoke that wafted through the air, carrying a strong scent of burning.
"It looks like Shen Yunmei really wanted us dead!" Chen Ziqian turned his gaze towards Ling Yuanhang.
