Steve ignored Christina's refusal . The moment he embraced Christina, the pain of the burning fire intensified . It was as if all of his cells were being burned to ashes, and his soul was being burned in the fire of h.e.l.l!

However, Steve endured the severe pain . The reason why Christina had to bear such severe pain was because she wanted to save him . Thus, he would not give up easily .

Christina was stunned as she stared at Steve, who was being burned by fire . At this moment, she was greatly moved . This was an emotion that she had never felt before . Embracing someone was a normal thing to do, but when Steve gave her a hug, she felt an unprecedented sense of peace and warmth fill her heart .

"Although you entered her subconscious world, your consciousness is still your own . Use your subconscious to stimulate her subconscious vitality . . . " Judy's voice sounded in Steve's mind .

A subconscious mind had infinite possibilities . Upon thinking of this, Steve constantly conceived an illusion, while his body slowly emitted a cold aura . The aura felt as if it was using ice that had been frozen for thousands of years constantly as it dispersed the burning fire . He had used his own strength to fight the Demonic Fire!

Steve could feel the fire in his body getting weaker, and in the end, he seemed to have turned into a huge ice cube . Christina, who was currently in Steve's embrace, felt that Steve was getting colder and colder, and the fire in her was being driven away gradually .

Soon, she felt comfortable once more . At that point, Christina could not help but stretch out her hands and hug Steve .

"That's not enough yet . You have to make her have the desire to survive," Judy said .

Steve looked determined . Though the cold aura of his body made Christina feel comfortable, the fire in her seemed like a powerful stove, one which would not stop burning .

"Christina, all of this is your illusion . In the subconscious world, all of your pain is your own imagination . Think about your family, your goals . . . " Steve whispered in Christina's ears . "You also need to lead the Masa Group in building an enormous business empire . "

Christina, who was initially despairing, suddenly got a glimmer of hope in her eyes . Her desire for survival instantly began to grow stronger .

"No . . . I can't get out of this sea of fire . The Demonic Fire burns my body and my soul! I will be burned into ashes . . . " As Christina struggled with her pain, it was written all over her face .

"You're not dead yet . Your body is still alive . Believe me . Use your subconscious power to extinguish this fire," Steve said as he held Christina's hand tightly .

Within Steve's voice, there was a trace of spiritual guidance and several spiritual hints . After receiving the inheritance of the spiritual training from the Lemuria Civilization, Steve had also learned some techniques for how to use his spiritual power .

Under Steve's guidance, Christina gradually stabilized and was able to calm herself . Her desire for survival began to grow stronger once more . She then began to try to expel the fire .

The most obvious change was in Christina's physical vitality . It was as if she was stimulated by some kind of jolt of power and began to grow stronger .

"It's not enough for her subconscious mind to stimulate her desire to survive . " Judy started operating the system and injected a serum into Christina .

A strong sense of survival would be able to stimulate a cell's survival potential, but to dispel the remaining power of Demon Collic in her body was another matter altogether . Under Judy's operation, the remaining power of Demon Collic in Christina's body was extracted out, bit by bit . Her own strong desire to survive, together with the help of the serum, triggered a rapid repair of her destroyed viscera and so on .

"Christina's situation has stabilized for the time being, but as for the other one . . . " Judy frowned and looked at Wendy .

Compared with Christina's situation, Wendy's situation was very bad . So far, there had been no response from Wendy . . .

. . .

In Wendy's subconscious world…

This gray world had no color or life . It was filled with only decay, destruction, and death .

Steve came looking for Wendy, but could not find any trace of her . "Wendy! Wendy!" he called, but when he got no response, he became even more anxious .

"Judy, why is there no response, even after I called her several times?" Steve asked .

"Her body is dying and her subconscious world is collapsing . Her soul is dissipating and dying . You have to use special methods to summon her soul," Judy said .

"Special methods . . . " Steve frowned .

Wendy's body was dying and her soul was fading away . As such, the whole gray world was filled with fragments of her soul . It was not easy to gather these fragments .

Steve was anxious, as his understanding of Wendy was limited . For Christina, he had used what she cared most in her heart in order to stimulate her desire for survival .

But, Steve had no idea what Wendy was concerned about or even what family she had . Moreover, Wendy's conscious world was collapsing quickly, indicating that she did not have much time left .

After a moment of silent contemplation, Steve finally thought of another method, and he said, "Miss Wendy, I know you can hear me . I'm very grateful to you for saving me . "

Steve then paused before he said, "To thank you for saving my life, I've decided to tell you my true ident.i.ty . "

Boom…

Wendy's subconscious world suddenly fluctuated violently . Steve's eyes lit up when he saw the situation, as it showed that his words had been effective .

"Actually, my real ident.i.ty is a person you already know," Steve said .

Her subconscious world fluctuated again, and Steve felt a faint wave of a soul gathering .

"Don't you want to see for yourself who the clown pharmacist is?" Steve asked . "I believe that all of Blue Star Mankind is very interested in my ident.i.ty . "

In front of Steve, the gray mist suddenly formed a whirlpool, in which a little fluorescent light flashed . Wendy's soul was condensing! After a while, a hazy transparent soul suddenly appeared .

Though Christina's subconscious world was burning with Demonic Fire, her own soul was still intact . Now, touching her subconscious body felt the same as touching her physical body .

However, Wendy's soul was very weak and transparent now . But, Wendy's soul soon finally condensed . Upon seeing this, Steve slowly breathed a sigh of relief .

"Are you really going to tell me your true ident.i.ty now?" Wendy asked .

"Since you were willing to give up your life to save me, you are clearly a trustworthy person . I believe in you, so I have decided to tell you my true ident.i.ty," Steve said .

"But, the mask on my face needs to be removed by your hands alone . "

"You want me to remove your mask?" Wendy frowned, then said, "But, my soul is too weak to touch you . . . "
