"Thank you...for always being there for me," she sniffed her nose to send her tears back as she tightened her grip on his neck, he wanted to do the same but he would have to come out of the water.

He just smiled, feeling her touch for the first time even if it is only his spiritual body in the dimension.

She unwrapped her hands around his neck then she wiped her tears and sniffed her nose again.

"Remember, don't tell anyone what I told you today," he turned serious, her smile faded seeing the serious expression on his face even though she was already planning to tell Bohai and her sister about the guardian in her necklace.

"Not even my sister and Bohai?" she questioned with a disappointed look on her face.

"Not even them...Bohai...?" he clearly remembers that Bohai is the young master of the wind sect but the way she mentioned his name, he was sure there is something between them, he just hoped it isn't what he thinks it is.

"Yes, you are the most beautiful person I have ever seen and he is the second..." she leaned close to his ear to whisper "I love him," she coquettishly drew back from him, the way she spoke about him just showed how dear she holds him in her heart.

He didn't feel hurt since he wasn't expecting anything in return for the love he has for her but he didn't expect that she already has someone she loves since he has always thought he still has his chance when she becomes free but it turned out that the one she loves is her ultimate enemy.

"You....why do you look like that?" she noticed the downcast expression on his face even with the faint fake smile on his lips.

"Nothing, I am just happy to know there is a position in your heart where I am the first, I....." he clutched his chest and scrunched his face, a sharp piercing pain ran through his chest and could feel something squeezing his heart, she drew closer to him, holding his hand.

"What is wrong?"

"I have to go now, by now, your outer appearance would have changed back to normal, I assume you came out with Lin Bohai in that case, if he asks if you were the one who used ice and flame power back there, just deny it..." he tried to hold it in but the metallic taste in his mouth didn't cease, he started coughing but he didn't want to leave until she answers him.

"D-Do you understand?" 

"...Yes," she answered with tears gathering in her eyes, he looked like he was really in pain and she could guess it is because of her.

"D...." before she could say anything, she found herself catapulted out of the dimension, she opened her eyes and exhaled deeply, the tears that had previously gathered in her eyes dropped down her cheeks but the fear in her heart because of the person she met inside the dimension still remained.

"I wonder if he is okay...but," she remembered his warning not to tell Lin Bihai about it, she didn't want to lie to him but she feared that if she tells him she is the one then he might think she is even more of a monster so she decided to find him again after checking her hair to confirm that she now looks like a normal person.

"He must have seen the restaurant by now...I should find him there," but she stopped abruptly after weighing the situation.

"The wind sect must have gotten news of this and I am the first person they will suspect---it is better I return to the sect by all means,"

Meanwhile, Lin Bohai who had been searching for her just arrived at the scene of the destruction, he widened his eyes with a shocked look at the extent of the damage she has caused, most of the buildings around the restaurant were made with very strong building material to preserve them but she actually made everything crumble to the ground.

{Except for my father and the elders who have already passed the saint stage, I am afraid no one in the sect can cause this much destruction, including me...}

He couldn't help but find himself being envious of her power even though he denies the fact in his heart.

"I have to find her now or there will be trouble," but just as he took a step forward, he heard his name, he turned back to see who it was and indeed, his fears came true.

Meng Hui and few other disciples were right behind him, he wasn't surprised that she could recognise him even with the hat so he removed it and walked towards them, casting off anything that will make her suspect him.

"You are here," he remarked 

"I thought you said you were going to take care of something outside the sect, how come you are also here?" she questioned with a suspicious gaze directed at him.

"I happened to hear some rumours of an explosion so I decided to check it out, is there any problem with that?" he made use of his tone of authority again, reminding her that she doesn't have the right to question him and that she clearly perceived but it only made her suspicion grow.

{Bohai ge, I hope you really don't have anything to do with this}

She smiled and bowed her head slightly.

"I don't dare," she responded.

He turned around to get a closer view of the scene while they followed behind him with Meng Hui walking on the same lane with him but when they got to the centre of the destruction, their eyes widened at what they saw and a look of disbelief filled their faces.

"Ice and flames!" Bohai exclaimed inaudibly, it is of course no news that ever since the ice and flame clan were destroyed, hundreds of years ago, the power of ice has disappeared from the world and if not for the beasts with cores made from the flame of the flame demon, even the flame sect wouldn't exist. 

"Impossible, how can anyone conjure ice not to talk of possessing both ice and flame power, this doesn't make sense," Meng Hui added but while they were still bewildered, the soldiers sent from the prefecture office recognised them.

"Young master Lin, miss Meng Hui," he greeted.

"What happened here?" she quickly interrogated.

"According to the restaurant owner, a young lady came to the restaurant but after she ate, she refused to pay his money so she destroyed the whole place using ice and flame from both hands, we suspect that the person in question is a cultivator," their head answered.

{Fool, of course, she is a cultivator}

"Bring the restaurant owner," Bohai ordered, the solider quickly went and returned with the man who was still trembling in fear and hugging his body tightly.

"Young...Young master Lin," the man greeted.

"Tell me, what did she look like?" 

Meng Hui could hear the anxiousness in his (Bohai) voice, they were all shocked by the scene in front of them but he seemed different as if he knows what happened or who committed the crime.

"She has an average build and she was wearing a black-veiled hat but her eyes...her eyes...one of her eyeballs was coloured red and the other coloured azure blue," he rubbed his hands against each other in fear, the moment when she transformed right in front of him and the streaks of flame and ice threatening to erupt from her hands before he quickly left the place still terrified him.

{It can't be her..how can she conjure ice...}

"Bohai ge, we have to report this to the sect leader immediately, we must confirm if the second young mistress of the flame sect is still in the cave," Meng Hui advised, clutching her sword tightly, she already hates the fact that Huo Lan has the strongest flame power but if she also has ice power then....that means she is a more of a formidable monster that everyone needs to fear.

His heart jumped at her advise, if by chance Huo Ying is still outside the sect then they are doomed to find out that she left the sect and once they find out...she won't be able to escape death.

"No need to hurry, I suggest we search around for the perpetrator, perhaps she is not far away, if not then we can return to the sect,"

"But..."

"Should risk letting such a dangerous person off because of your ridiculous suspicion, you are indirectly saying that the wind sect failed to guard her properly?" he retorted angrily but inside all he felt is fear, she could almost confirm her suspicion, the look on his face...this is the second time he is giving her that look and it is also because of the sisters.

"I am sorry,"

He turned to the soldiers.
