Yi Li finally realized what she was doing. If she kept princess carrying An Lin like this, he was going to die!
She immediately tossed An Lin into the distance.
Thump!
His charred black body tumbled to the ground, where it lay unmoving.
“Ah! Are you alright, Great Sparrow Man?” Yi Li was given a huge fright, and she flew toward An Lin before using a spell technique to detect his condition.
She finally heaved a long sigh of relief upon detecting An Lin’s heartbeat.
Yi Li immediately unleashed a healing spell technique on An Lin.
“Jeez… What was that Great Sparrow Man thinking, kissing me like that all of a sudden… That was way too abrupt…
“And he kissed me so firmly and decisively…”
A blush appeared on Yi Li’s face, and her heart rate accelerated upon recalling the kiss.
“That was so embarrassing!”
Boom!
Yi Li exploded again, and An Lin’s charred body was hoisted high into the air.
“Ah! I’m sorry, Great Sparrow Man!”
Yi Li immediately caught An Lin to stop his momentum…
Thus, An Lin was slowly being melted by extreme temperatures again.
On the black continent, the Vermilion Bird Princess’ lips twitched as she stared at the inhumane treatment An Lin’s charred “corpse” was receiving.
She silently covered her eyes. This was simply too horrendous for her to even look at!
“Don’t hate me. I didn’t think you would actually kiss the sun…”
The Vermilion Bird Princess heaved a faint sigh as she looked at An Lin’s miserable state. “However, the fact that he went through with the kiss despite the fact that the guardian of the Sun Tree was a sun proves that everything he told me was true! He didn’t lie to me.”
With this in mind, the Vermilion Bird Princess’ lips pursed in a slight smile as her eyes flashed.
In the murky darkness…
A long time seemed to have passed by.
An Lin opened his eyes with difficulty, and he felt like his entire body had been crippled by searing pain.
He was greeted by a vast expanse of gold, aside from which he could see nothing else.
Oh, this was because Yi Li’s body was too bright and occupied his entire field of vision, almost blinding him for the second time.
“Ah! You’re finally awake, Great Sparrow Man!” A joyful smile appeared on Yi Li’s face when she saw An Lin opening his eyes, and her body brightened a fraction.
An Lin immediately pleaded at the sight of the brightening Yi Li, “I beg of you, please please please don’t get excited anymore!”
Yi Li: “…”
An Lin felt like he had been blasted into a quadriplegic. Aside from being able to speak with great difficulty, his entire musculoskeletal structure, as well as his meridians, had been severely damaged by the scorching heat of the explosion.
Yi Li continued to unleash healing spell techniques on him, but it looked like he would require about half a month to recover to full health at this rate.
That’s right, the price he paid for taking Yi Li’s first kiss was much heavier than even the Vermilion Bird Princess’ first kiss.
He was already traumatized by the act of forcing kisses upon others.
“Why… Why did you kiss me, Great Sparrow Man?” Yi Li’s voice grew fainter as she spoke, as if she was embarrassed. She turned to look at the half-naked An Lin before averting her gaze shyly.
An Lin didn’t really mind being seen like this by her.
This was like streaking under the sun. Would you be embarrassed from being seen by the sun?
What a joke! This was like being seen by the shower tap when you took a shower. If you felt embarrassed about that, you were probably a freak!
Of course, this sun had a life, and it was a female sun, so things really were a little different.
However, An Lin didn’t really care about the details.
As for the female sun’s question, An Lin didn’t really want to answer it either.
This was because he had not yet thought of a good excuse…
Yi Li’s blush deepened at An Lin’s silence.
An Lin shuddered from fear upon seeing this.
He recalled back to the horror of Yi Li’s self-detonation and was extremely worried that this sun was making something up in her own mind.
“Please… Please calm down and don’t think too much!” An Lin immediately urged.
Yi Li nodded before materializing a pair of hands again and handing the Nine Flame True Yang Fruits to An Lin. “Umm… This is for you!”
An Lin’s head throbbed at the sight of the fruits. “No. I can’t take this immortal fruit. Didn’t I tell you that your kiss was enough?”
He was just a fake mythological beast who was here to kiss the little sun. His skin wasn’t thick enough that he would take these two valuable fruits.
Yi Li didn’t think that An Lin would turn down the fruits again, and she was starting to get a little worked up. “Then why did you kiss me? Why would you do such a thing even though it resulted in such dire consequences?”
She was excited, but not because of rage. Instead, it was due to some sort of other indescribable emotion.
“No living beings have ever wanted to get close to me, regardless of whether it was animals or powerful mythological beasts. None of them wanted to engage in intimate contact with me because I’m simply too scorching hot. But you…”
Yi Li became more and more worked up as she spoke, and her flames steadily rose in temperature.
An Lin’s heart leaped into his throat again. Didn’t they agree to leave this topic until he was recovered? Why was she bringing this up again?
However, even though Yi Li had injured him, those weren’t her true intentions. On the contrary, she was trying her best to heal him following the severe injuries he had sustained. This was extremely touching to him.
If Yi Li had given him an enraged pummeling during his period of unconsciousness, the Sun Tree really was going to be his final resting place.
The guardian of the Sun Tree was unexpectedly warm and gentle…
Should he cheer Yi Li up a bit?
An Lin made a decision and cleared his throat before speaking, “When a moth looks for light, even when it is in the form of lethal flames, it will fly toward the enchanting beauty of the flames with no regard for its own safety. I love the light as well, and when I saw the brilliance of your beautiful light, I had to express my love for your light through a kiss!”
In other words, he liked the flames Yi Li unleashed, as opposed to her physical self. This was a compliment to Yi Li, but it also presented an explanation for his kiss, so it should suffice…
He was then greeted by the sight of Yi Li’s body growing brighter and brighter…
“Calm down! Calm down!” An Lin practically roared in a frantic voice.
Boom!
The ninth level tremored again.
Exploding light lit up the Sun Tree, and a charred black body flew into the sky.
“Ah! I’m so sorry, Great Sparrow Man!” Yi Li knew that she had lost control again and caught the falling An Lin with a guilty expression.
An Lin was in despair as he felt his body melting from the scorching embrace, and he fainted again.
This was almost a self-preservation mechanism to prevent him from experiencing further trauma.
Yi Li finally came to her senses and immediately tossed An Lin’s body far away.
Thump!
An Lin fell to the ground like a dead dog.
Vermilion Bird Princess silently placed her hands over her eyes.
“Sigh… Why did Shameless An insist on tempting fate like this? What if he actually gets blasted to death?”
She looked at the image of the man who was about to die and paused for a long while.
In the end, she gritted her teeth and came to a certain decision.
