Guide To Train My Beast Husbands-Chapter 196: Raging fire

Leaving the two of them to marvel over the piece of land and the grains of rice, Ruan Chanchan walked over to the spot that was glowing on the treasure map. As soon as she came to a stop in front of the thin, lush bush, Ruan Chanchan quickly recognised it. It was a small, teardrop-shaped chilli.

[Crimson Demonfire chilly.]

[Its skin glows in the dark, and when plucked, it releases a faint crackling sound. And at night, it releases a tiny flame. This chilli is really spicy, really, really spicy. Be careful while eating it; only use a tiny bit while cooking.]

[Benefits: You will gain temporary fire resistance for ten minutes as well as the ability to breathe fire. A word of Caution: The effects will only last for less than ten minutes, so be careful.]

Seeing that Ye Qian Qian and Yuan Ni were still busy studying the paddy, Ruan Chanchan happily picked up all the ripe, spicy fruits that were growing on the lush bush. She tried to fit as many demon fire chillies in her wicker basket as possible, and when the others were not paying attention to her, she used her mental energy to put more than half of the fruits in her supermarket. After her mental energy advanced, she didn’t need to put anything in her hands; her mental energy was enough.

She was so clean that no one noticed anything. What was more, the fruits were way too inconspicuous, and no one was paying attention to Ruan Chanchan; thus, she easily put the chillies in her supermarket.

This time around, I will definitely earn a lot of goodwill points; this was something that Ruan Chanchan was certain of. After all, this crimson demonfire chilli was something that had a lot of benefits. Ones that could make anyone buy them in a matter of seconds. Since that was the case, Ruan Chanchan was sure that she didn’t have to worry about collecting goodwill energy.

By the time Ye Qian Qian and Yuan Ni were done fencing the paddy, Ruan Chanchan had put all the spicy chillies in her supermarket. Ruan Chanchan was very happy. Her supermarket was yet to level up, and she hadn’t gotten her hands on any condiments yet. These chillies had solved a rather big problem for her. Ruan Chanchan happily hummed a tune, and Yuan Ni and Ye Qian Qian finally turned to look at Ruan Chanchan. They saw her smiling and singing and turned curious.

"Did something good happen, Ruan Chanchan?" Ye Qian Qian asked with a tilt of her head. She wondered what had happened for Ruan Chanchan to be this happy?

Ruan Chanchan turned to look at the woman with a mysterious smile before shaking her shoulders happily, "Its a secret. You will know soon."

Somewhere else.

A woman was kneeling in the centre of the raging flames and her hands were clenched on her lap. Anger, fear and regrets flashed in her eyes. If only she had known that her husband had never loved her and was only using her to pave the way for his illegitimate children then she would have never, never allowed him to take advantage of her in such a way.

"Yunshuang," a soft whimper wafted over to her and Ji Yunshuang felt her heart ache even harder. She turned to look at the man who was lying next to her and couldn’t help but feel regretful. All these years, he had chased after her and she had never taken a good look at him. And yet, he didn’t even think twice before jumping into the raging fire to save her.

"You shouldn’t have followed me," said Ji Yunshuang with a sorrowful voice. "Look where it brought you."

Fang Zijan raised his head and looked at the woman whom he had loved for more than ten years. Since they were children, they had never lived far from one another, it was only when that scheming woman came between the two of them, and made Ji Yunshuang to get married to that bastard, the two of them went their separate ways. Fang Zijan hated that woman but what he hated more was that he couldn’t prove how much he loved Ji Yunshuang or else she would have married him instead of that jerk.

He tried to smile even though his body was in so much pain that he couldn’t even breathe properly much less smile. He could only curve a side of his lips and even that little action made him wince in pain. "I wanted to do this... this is not your fault...I wanted to save you—cough—it has nothing to do with you." Fang Zijan didn’t blame Ji Yunshuang. If anything, he blamed himself for not being able to save her. Even though he came here to rescue her, he couldn’t do it. That man was right.

He was a failure and couldn’t even do something so simple. His beloved woman was dying right in front of his eyes and he couldn’t do anything to save her. If he was not a failure then what was he?

Ji Yunshuang’s eyes turned red. She raised her hand and touched the man’s cheek. She said to him, "If there is a next life, I promise that I will devote myself to you." She knew that she could do nothing for Fang Zijan now. The two of them were trapped in the middle of raging fire and even if she was filled with regrets, it was not enough. Because her regrets couldn’t turn the time back. She couldn’t take the two out of this predicament. Even if she gave it her all, she couldn’t do anything.

[Ding! Are you in a tough predicament? Do you want a quick way to get out of this trouble?]

[do not fear the invincible supermarket app is here. You can make any purchase with us. From groceries to magical fruits, you can buy anything from us. Would you like to buy a bamboo shield that you can use to fight against your enemies? Or would you like to buy a fruit that can make you resistant to fire for the next ten minutes? Would you like to make the purchase?]

Ji Yunshuang snapped her head and looked at the thing that was hovering in front of her. She didn’t even care whether the thing in front of her was nothing but an illusion of her eyes as she was close to death, she ignored everything else and tapped on the screen right away.

"I am willing to exchange the recipe books in the safe house," said Ji Yunshuang as she hit the buy button under the crimson demonfire fruit. "You can take anything as long as you save my life."

At first nothing happened and Ji Yunshuang turned upset and disappointed. She thought that the thing in front of her was simply an illusion but then–

Pop.

The sound of something falling onto the hard floor echoed in her ears and Ji Yunshuang looked down. When she saw the chillies that were displayed on the screen was now lying in front of her, her eyes widened and without even thinking it carefully, she popped the thing in her mouth. No sooner did she do that, a burning sensation started to spread all over her mouth. She hissed in pain, and tears started to prick her eyes. When Ji Yunshuang saw how small the chillies were, she thought that they would at most taste like little bell peppers. She never thought that these tear drop chillies would burn so much.

However, ignoring the pain in her mouth, she soon realised that the fire that was raging around her was no longer hurting.

The heat seemed to have diminished and she was feeling much better. Ji Yunshuang didn’t know how much she could trust this thing but what other choice did she have? Should she wait here silently and die in sheer agony and pain? Ji Yunshuang knew that she couldn’t do it, so she could only grit her teeth and then feed the chilli to Fang Zijan. The poor man had no idea what was going on, when he saw that Ji Yunshuang was feeding him something, he opened his mouth and ate the thing inside his mouth.

And as soon as he finished eating it, his eyes went wide and he started to breathe through his mouth, he turned his head and looked at Ji Yunshuang trying his best not to look too accsuatory. Just now he thought that Ji Yunshuang was feeding him something nice but he never expected that the woman would feed him something so spicy.

Ji Yunshuang turned to look away as she knew perfectly too well why the man was looking at her. Ignoring his blaming gaze, she stood up from the only corner where the fire hadn’t reached before stretching her hand out and offering it to Fang Zijan. "Are you willing to trust me one last time?" She questioned.

Fang Zijan looked at her outstretched hand and smiled before stretching out to take it. "With pleasure."

And with that the two of them jumped into the raging fire.
