Lord of Flames

Chapter 5: Holy Maiden

Chapter 5. Holy Maiden

In the pouring rain, Lin Yan continuously activated his energy.

His flames were even brighter.

The giant bear rolled in the rain in pain, knocking down several trees.

Finally, the giant bear’s injuries were too heavy, and it drew its last breath.

【You burned a first-rank giant bear to death and gained 100 evolutionary points.】

The system’s voice rang out.

“It’s finally settled!”

Lin Yan let out a light breath.

When he did this, the flames suddenly extended a large portion.

After the giant bear died, Lin Yan continued to use the flames to completely incinerate the giant bear.

There was quite a lot of energy in the giant bear’s body. Even though it had consumed a lot of energy in the heavy rain, the income was still quite high. After deducting the consumption, there was still a surplus.

“A God! It’s a God!”

At this moment, the Fox people nearby finally reacted. A Fox person shouted. Its voice caused the faces of the surrounding Fox people to freeze.

Soon after, the Fox people fell to the ground one after another, their faces filled with extreme fear.

What they feared was the might of a God. Seeing a God was not a good thing.

Gods! They couldn’t get close. Gods would not save people for no reason. Especially a God you don’t believe in!

Gods were dignified, and Gods were also easily angered. Gods would only be slightly gentler towards their believers.

To these Fox people, the flames that could be ignited in the water on a rainy night, the flames that violently burned the first rank giant bear to death, and the flames that had a faint human face inside of it, what else could it be other than a God?

Although this might only be a trillionth of the power of a God, it was still enough to kill these Fox people who were not even at the first rank.

That was why they were so terrified. These Fox people were prostrated on the ground. No one dared to raise their heads.

Even the sound of rain disappeared in their ears. Only the sound of flames burning could be heard.

They didn’t even dare to run. They could only submit their lives to God with the most humble attitude.

…

Lin Yan did not pay any attention to these Fox people. Their level was too low. It was not worth it to burn them during the rainy night.

Finally, the giant bear was completely burnt.

Lin Yan suddenly shrunk, and then with a light leap, he borrowed a gust of wind and flew towards a cliff not far away.

He was going there to hide from the rain.

.

…

On the ground, only after half an hour had passed since the sound of the flames had disappeared did those Foxes dare to raise their heads.

These Fox people surrounded the giant bear that had turned into ashes. Their faces were filled with shock.

“A few days ago, a fire suddenly ignited in this wilderness,” a Fox said.

Her words caused the surrounding Fox people to immediately look at each other. The fear in their eyes grew even more intense. That wasteland, which was filled with poisonous gas that never disperses, had burned for three days and three nights, and all the plants and vegetation were burned to ashes.

Thinking back to what they had just witnessed, they immediately knew why the Misty wasteland had burned for three days and three nights!

“Let’s go report this news!” a Fox girl said.

This group of Fox people traveled along the way and took quite a bit of time to return to their tribe. The tribe wasn’t small. There were many Fox people. When they were out, they were targeted by that first-rank giant bear. As he chased after them, they fled to Lin Yan’s vicinity.

The Fox people quickly found the Chief.

“Mother, we just met a God!” Among the Foxes, a young and beautiful Fox girl walked out and said to the chief.

“What? A God? Are you telling the truth?” the Chief of the Fox race asked.

The young Fox girl told her about what she saw.

“Take me to take a look.”

The Fox clan leader’s gaze became grave as she rushed to the place where the incident had occurred overnight.

“There’s no trace of magic power. It’s not done by a mage, nor is there any fluctuation of battle qi. It was not done by a knight. It’s a flame that can burn even on a rainy night. It’s a flame that burned the entire wilderness. Heavens, it might really be a God!”

After the chief of the Fox race personally inspected the scene, her expression became even more serious.

On the way back, the chief of the Fox race did not say a word.

However, this night, a simple temple in the Fox tribe was constructed as quickly as possible.

On the altar in the temple, a symbol of fire was exceptionally bright. This Fox tribe intended to worship the Flame God that had burned the entire wilderness and the giant bear during that rainy night.

At dawn, the young Fox girl, the daughter of the Fox clan leader, wore a simple white robe and walked into the temple.

“Mother, I’m willing to become the Holy Maiden to serve my God and keep my body pure for the sake of my God!”

The young Fox girl’s face was hidden under the veil as she looked at the Flame symbol on the altar.

As the Holy Maiden of a Divine Spirit, not only must she maintain a Holy Body for a God, even her face could not be seen by others!

The chief of the Fox race grabbed her daughter’s hand and took out a small knife. She lightly tapped it on her finger and a drop of blood fell out.

“We’ve been expelled from the main clan, and we’ve come to this remote place. No God is willing to look after us. This God might not be able to respond to us. We’ll know if he’s a God or not.”

After the Fox race’s chief finished speaking, she placed the drop of blood from the young Fox girl on the altar.
