Xiao Budian was in danger.
Mu Jihai's conversion of ice to fire, and his spell combination of two drastically opposing forces possessed overpowering strength. Even the members of his Heaven Lake Sect were astonished, and many glanced in the direction of Song Qingyuan discreetly.
This was because the aptitude that Mu Jihai demonstrated was already adequate to challenge Song Qingyuan, with no trace of inferiority at all.
Song Qingyuan's expression did not change, and gazed at Mu Jihai in awe, nodding slightly. "I see, this is your real strength, Junior Mu."
Meanwhile, back in the Hidden Dragon Gorge, Mu Jihai's performance was not over yet. He eyed Xiao Budian closely, who was engulfed in roaring flames, and he suddenly joined his hands together.
