267 Fulfilling the Contract
“Everyone, evacuate immediately and head to the furnaces!” Xu Yuan ordered and urged Su Wan to jump on his back.
The troops ran from the Arcana Hall. The sound of explosions rang out. The magical inscriptions along the wall glowed and cracked.
There were no enemies this time, Xu Yuan and Su Wan flew to the room with the furnaces.
Su Wan felt uneasy. The furnaces sensed their arrival and treated them as intruders. They burst into flames once again.
!!
The Fire Elemental Lifeforms crawled out of the furnaces. The largest furnace spewed flames. A giant crawled out of it.
Chains marked with bluish ruins held the creature. No matter how much the creature struggled, it couldn’t break free. A roar shook the place.
The terrifying aura scared everyone. It was the Fire Elemental Lord. Its power was indescribable.
“The crystal!!!” shouted the Fire Elemental Lord in surprise.
The chains rattled fiercely. Molten metal spewed out like magma, and the temperature of the air began to rise rapidly.
“We completed the mission and obtained the crystal. It’s time for you to fulfill your promise,” said Su Wan.
Su Wan wasn’t afraid that the creature would break its promise. She had Xu Yuan by her side.
The Fire Elemental Lord looked satisfied. “Human, you have won my trust and my friendship.”
Its imprisonment was at an end. It felt ecstatic.
“The crystal is sealed by powerful magic. It’s impossible to obtain it using ordinary methods.” Su Wan wondered if she could get the crystal back after the seal was broken.
“Don’t worry. Breaking the seal doesn’t require me to destroy the crystal ball,” said the Fire Elemental Lord.
Su Wan didn’t dare to get too close. The scorching temperature could easily melt rocks. No one could withstand the heat.
The crystal slowly floated up toward the furnace. After a while, flames surged and sputtered. It enveloped the crystal.
The flames turned the crystal fiery red, and light burst forth. The light illuminated everything around.
The chains began to rattle and crack. They broke into pieces and freed the creature. The chains simply melted in the heat after the seal was broken. They disappeared without a trace.
The surrounding temperature kept rising. Su Wan felt the heat. It turned her mouth dry.
Two huge arms climbed out of the furnace. A giant creature crawled out. It had two horns on its head. Its body was encased in flames.
It stood on top of the furnace. The dome above exploded. Dozens of furnaces also exploded and fire spewed out.
It was as if the Infernal Flame Demon from the legends had descended into the world.
“Countless years of imprisonment, and now, finally freedom!!!” shouted the Fire Elemental Lord.
Su Wan stared at the creature in fear and awe. Something powerful like this had to bow its head to Xu Yuan…
The Fire Elemental Lord looked at Su Wan. Its eyes were like rubies that glowed as they reflected the fire burning around it.
“Thank you,” it said. “Thank you, Dark Demon Dragon, for your help. It’s because of you that I have my freedom.”
The Fire Elemental Lord waved its hand. Numerous Fire Elemental Cores fell on the ground.
“These are condensed from fire. My underlings are born with these cores as their life force. Now, it is yours.”
The shattered space split open and two balls of light appeared. As the balls hit the floor, one revealed a black staff, and the other, a black robe hat, was engraved with ruins.

Both treasures were given to Lin Yao. She was ecstatic.
“An extremely powerful and rare profession. It’s an ancient profession obtained by despicable mages from other ruins. It possesses the most power. After I help her change her profession, I will give her an A-grade spell that is compatible with the power in your body, as per our contract.”
“I can temporarily control the magic arrays. I will help you break through the barrier,” said the Fire Elemental Lord.
The flames on its body surged. The sea of fire enveloped the entire furnace. The temperature rose to an extreme.
The surrounding Fire Elemental Lifeforms also joined in. The terrifying flames severely distorted the surrounding light.
Everything was a blur at this point.
They could only see endless flames all around.
