Chapter 2032 What if her companions come looking for her?

　　Song Shuhang crossed his arms over his chest, happily looking at his Flame Substitute and the light which occupied it.

　　Behind him, Fairy Creation imitated his movements, also crossing her arms as she towered over Shuhang.

　　Behind Fairy Creation was the virtuous lamia. Her arms were also crossed over her chest as she towered over Fairy Creation.

　　Behind them was the cute newbie, the black-skinned Soft Feather. Similar to her two seniors, the black-skinned Soft Feather had her arms crossed as she towered above the virtuous lamia.

　　Arranged like a ladder, they all simultaneously stared at the adult Sixteen.

　　Sixteen could no longer bear to look at Song Shuhang, and she covered her face with her hands.

　　“Shuhang is really hopeless.” Sister White Dragon sighed softly.

　　Song Shuhang, who was now at the Sixth Stage Realm, had good ears and clearly heard Sister White Dragon’s words.

　　You can’t blame me for this! I just crossed my arms!

　　“The adult Sixteen wants to escape from the Flame Substitute!” cried Lady Onion from Senior Turtle’s back.

　　Inside the Flame Substitute, the living light began to twist around, seemingly trying to escape from it.

　　But while it was easy to get in, the same could not be said for leaving.

　　Earlier, Song Shuhang’s Flame Substitute had let the light inside on purpose.

　　After two breaths of time, Song Shuhang’s Flame Substitute began changing, assuming a human form.

　　The Flame Substitute’s form had originally been modeled after Song Shuhang, but after being invaded by the adult Sixteen, its appearance began to change.

　　During the transformation, the Flame Substitute’s chest bulged slightly, its waist narrowed, and its overall frame shrunk. It was like a clay figurine taking shape.

　　After a few seconds, the Flame Substitute changed into the adult Sixteen’s appearance. In addition to having a more mature figure, the dragon horns on her head were different from Sixteen’s. On her head was a single small horn of a mirage dragon, which was different in shape and model from Sixteen’s.

　　Sister White Dragon said, “Interesting, it actually kept Sixteen’s appearance.”

　　With trembling hands, the adult Sixteen looked at Song Shuhang. It looked as if flames were shooting out from her eyes.

　　“Congratulations, Adult Sixteen.” Song Shuhang smiled slightly and said, “You took over my Flame Substitute. What do you think about it?”

　　After saying that, he stretched out his hand and readied it so that he could snap his fingers at any moment. “In addition, let me remind you of one thing. Although this Flame Substitute is under your control, it is still the result of a magical technique I used, and that has not changed. As long as I snap my fingers, this Flame Substitute will disappear.”

　　“The moment I,” Fairy Creation sang.

　　“Snap my fingers,” the virtuous lamia continued.

　　“You disappear!” The black-skinned Soft Feather added.

　　Fairy Creation raised her head, stared at the black-skinned Soft Feather, and sang, “You~ Are~ Gone!”

　　‘You disappear’ contained only two words instead of three!

　　The black-skinned Soft Feather stuck out her tongue.

　　Meanwhile, the adult Sixteen, who had taken over the Flame Substitute, grit her teeth.

　　That beam of light was still roaming inside her body. It now wanted to get out, but every time it tried to do so, it was suppressed and forced to stay inside.

　　Senior White took a sip of his tea and said, “It seems that her ‘invasion’ ability cannot be used repeatedly in quick succession.”

　　Senior Turtle said, “If this ‘invasion’ ability could be used continuously, it would be quite horrific.”

　　“Now, begin your performance.” The corners of Song Shuhang’s mouth curled upward. “Tell me about you. Why were you parasitizing Sixteen’s trial clone, and why were you looking at my wooden body with such greed? As long as your performance is good, I can light you up.”

　　The adult Sixteen opened her mouth, letting out a whooshing sound.

　　The structure of the Flame Substitute was different from that of a living creature, and special skills were required to allow it to reproduce proper speech.

　　The adult Sixteen gritted her teeth and stretched out her hands, grabbing the mirage dragon horn on her head.

　　“Yaaa-” she yelled. Afterward, she pulled at the horn with all of her might.

　　This move of hers utterly shocked Song Shuhang. He felt pain just from watching what she was doing.

　　After forcefully pulling out the horn, the adult Sixteen used it to stab her body, creating a gaping hole in her body of flames.

　　Senior White held the teacup and said, “It seems she wants to escape from your Flame Substitute through death. Perhaps she can free herself after its host dies.”

　　Song Shuhang sighed

　　Then, he snapped his fingers.

　　“Snap!”

　　“Snap- Snap- Snap-“

　　Above his head, the three fairies snapped their fingers in unison.

　　Song Shuhang: “…”

　　If these three don’t go back into my body, my style is going to be trash forever. In front of them, the Flame Substitute disappeared.

　　Even if it had been taken over, the essence of the Flame Substitute had not changed. Whether it existed or not was still under Song Shuhang’s control.

　　Lady Onion asked, “Is the light still alive?” Senior Turtle said slowly, “It looks like it disappeared along with Song Shuhang’s Flame Substitute.”

　　Sister White Dragon looked around and said, “This time, it’s really over.”

　　Sixteen nodded and pushed the crystal coffin into the river behind her.

　　In the next moment, the Spirit River Realm closed. The ceremonial ritual was over.

　　Sixteen stretched herself. She got stronger again when the ceremony was completed.

　　She felt a dreamlike energy inside her, the power of the mirage dragon.

　　Immediately afterward, Sixteen looked down at her chest, and a joyful expression appeared on her face. It might be difficult to see with the naked eye, but cultivators were very much aware of any changes to their bodies.

　　As a result, Sixteen felt more confident about her future.

　　Sister White Dragon patted Sixteen gently.

　　At this time, Song Shuhang said, “Do you guys think the adult Sixteen had a slot to enter Garre Holy Mountain?”

　　Also, what if her companions came looking for her?

　　They could not just give them Sixteen in the adult Sixteen’s place, right?

　　In terms of appearance, Sixteen was still different from the adult Sixteen, and the difference in size was very obvious.

　　“Speaking of which, Senior Song,” the black-skinned Soft Feather said while towering over Shuhang, “how about you try creating another Flame Substitute?”

　　“What for?” asked Song Shuhang while stretching out his hand to make a hand seal. In the next moment, a new Flame Substitute was created.

　　Among the flames, a figure with a slender waist and a slightly bulging chest appeared in front of everyone.

　　The black-skinned Soft Feather giggled. “It’s exactly as I guessed.”

　　The new Flame Substitute and Song Shuhang stared at each other.

　　Song Shuhang: “…”
