A name instantly appeared in Su Luo's mind!

Was it him?

Su Luo narrowed her eyes dangerously. Although she didn't quite believe it, she felt that the person staring at her from behind was most likely the Eighth Elder!

Could it be that the Eighth Elder wanted to avenge his little disciple Lan Yingyan? Su Luo thought.

However, Su Luo didn't know that she had guessed half of it correctly.

The person who was spying on her from the shadows was, indeed, the Eighth Elder, but he was not looking to seek revenge from Su Luo because of Lan Yingyan.

In fact, the Eighth Elder was playing a big game of chess. Even from the very beginning, when he replaced the Seventh Elder in teaching the class, that was the first move he had made.

Back then, Lan Yingyan had been burned to a pile of ashes by Su Luo, and while the Eighth Elder was naturally furious, he didn’t lash out on the spot. However, only after everyone had left he went to inspect the scene.

As expected, there was nothing left at the scene, and even that bit of Lan Yingyan's ashes had disappeared, but the Eighth Elder was able to see some clues from it.

After that, he had Su Luo investigated, starting from Su Luo’s assessment in the Genius Training Camp, to the assessment at Distal End Mountain, to the Downstream Mountain, then the Midstream Mountain… With all the information he had collected, he was able to discover a secret.

Su Luo was able to challenge others above her every time, and each time she was able to make it through without any dangers. What she relied on was her fire attribute.

Spiritual fire, Mystic fire, and Metamorphosis Fire were all the most powerful types of common fire attributes, but the Eighth Elder knew that even with Spiritual Fire, one couldn’t win a battle against someone ranked seven stars higher! Why was the Eighth Elder so confident that Spiritual Fire couldn’t achieve this?

Because on this continent, there were only a handful of people who could use Spiritual Fire, and the Eighth Elder happened to be one of them. Since he knew that Spiritual Fire couldn't do it, then all of those possibilities were eliminated, and there was only one possibility remaining—the magical fire of the Fallen Red Lotus.

The Eighth Elder had once obtained a unique book regarding the Fallen Red Lotus from the Ancient Ruins. He had hidden this book well, and no one aside from him had ever seen it. This was how he had made a guess based on the characteristics of the Fallen Red Lotus, judging from Su Luo’s body.

This bold assumption shocked the Eighth Elder himself, but then, the agitation and excitement, as well as greed, were like tarsal maggots gnawing constantly at his heart.

So the Eighth Elder laid out this game and easily got the position to teach the lecture this time from the Seventh Elder. In the lecture hall, he deliberately talked about the fire attribute, even the Exotic Fire. At that time, Su Luo's expression had been calm and relaxed, and even the Eighth Elder could not see through it.

Then, there was the following practical portion of the class. This practical class had confirmed the Eighth Elder’s internal speculations to some extent, and then there was the trip they took into the Flame Cavern.

When the Fallen Red Lotus arrived at the Flame Cavern, it would be like returning a fish back to the water, becoming the equivalent of a king. After observing all along the way, he became more and more excited as he watched her! The Eighth Elder admittedly had to sigh at Su Luo's good luck. To have such a strange encounter at such a young age, to carry such a treasure, and to keep such a low profile about it too.

After confirming that Su Luo was carrying Exotic Fire, the greed in the Eighth Elder's heart could no longer be contained. What Lan Yingyan, what little disciple? This wasn’t a matter to him at all! His head was now full of schemes on how to seize the Exotic Fire from Su Luo’s body!

As for the method, in the cheat book he had obtained, there was actually a way!

Hiding in the darkness, the Eighth Elder looked at Su Luo, who was frowning in front of him. Then, his malicious eyes flashed slightly while he laughed without a sound.
