Chapter 1943: 2042 Actually Acknowledged Its Master

"Master Wu, Master Zhou, thank you both for your efforts." Gao Weihu sat up, speaking politely and respectfully. Then, he nodded toward Gao Jien, "Jien, you’ve worked hard too."

"You flatter me, young master. My family’s lives were spared thanks to you; to be able to assist you is a blessing for me." Gao Jien wiped his eyes, his face honest yet determined as he spoke.

No wonder Gao Jien is so loyal to Gao Weihu; to save his life, he’d gone as far as to bring two Medical Masters to Huacun City. It turns out Gao Weihu had saved his whole family. Mu Hanyan hadn’t expected that behind his rugged exterior and terrifying ruthlessness, which even made her heart race, Gao Weihu possessed such kindness. Truly, you can’t judge a book by its cover.

As the group spoke, a cluster of Wilderness Fire on Mu Hanyan’s finger suddenly flew off, landing on Gao Weihu’s shoulder, flickering with evident delight and affection.

Though clearly just a flame, it gave the impression of a spirit beast finding its master.

"This Spiritual Fire has recognized its master!" Ling Baobao, with greater insight than Mu Hanyan into Heaven and Earth Spirit Fire, exclaimed in surprise.

Mu Hanyan had noticed earlier that when she explored the Wilderness Fire with her Divine Sense, she felt a distinct sense of alienation, unlike the Chaos Heavenly Fire’s connection with her. She was puzzled about it, but now she realized the Wilderness Fire had long recognized Gao Weihu as its master.

Wu Yazi and Zhou Jilin looked at Gao Weihu with envious yet puzzled eyes; wasn’t the Wilderness Fire clearly in Mu Hanyan’s hand? How did it recognize Gao Weihu as its master?

Because Mu Hanyan practiced both medical arts and Alchemy Dao, they hadn’t considered the Wilderness Fire as theirs. But seeing this Heaven and Earth Spirit Fire, which is of great significance to alchemists, acknowledge Gao Weihu as its master, they felt it was a squandered treasure, their hearts filled with regret.

Of course, this was because they didn’t know the true nature of Gao Weihu’s injuries. What they didn’t know was that the Wilderness Fire was actually derived from the strength in his Divine Sense.

Gao Weihu himself, however, understood perfectly. Although his Divine Sense was under a seal, appearing as if in deep sleep, it remained clear. He was aware of everything happening both within and outside his body.

"Actually, this Wilderness Fire is condensed from the strength within my Divine Sense," Gao Weihu explained.

"What?" Everyone except Mu Hanyan and Ling Baobao exclaimed.

According to their diagnosis, Gao Weihu had suffered severe injuries, on the brink of death, all because of this strength. Yet, this strength was actually the Wilderness Fire, and it recognized him as its master? How could that be?

"In truth, my severe injuries were due to this Wilderness Fire continually consuming my Life Essence and Divine Sense to form the shape of the Spiritual Fire. But throughout this process, it has been constantly merging with my Divine Sense.

If Priest Mu hadn’t intervened to save me, I would have hardly escaped death, and this Spiritual Fire might never have formed. The laws of the Divine Continent meant there was never a chance for it to become the shape of the Spiritual Fire; it was just its innate Spiritual Intent.

Priest Mu forcibly separated it from my Divine Sense, saving me and helping it build the form of the Spiritual Fire. Since it had long merged with my Divine Sense and Life Essence, it naturally recognizes me as its master." Gao Weihu continued.
