A fire suddenly rose from the center of Domir, starting from the wooden houses around the open space in the center of town and quickly spreading. Flames jumped from building to building across empty spaces like a living creature and turned Domir into a sea of fire in the blink of an eye. Looking down from higher ground, all they saw was red.
They watched in horror as the fire did not look like a natural phenomenon. The way it spread and its speed were almost reminiscent of a film with lousy special effects. Nangong Wuyue was shocked. "What… What happened?"
Hao Ren squinted. Something did not add up. "Wait a second. It is a normal fire. Look at the houses!" he said.
Houses burned, collapsed and turned into ashes so fast that it was surreal. As the wind blew, it swept the ashes into the sky.
