Facing the desperate pleas of Lei Qilong, Shi Feiyang refused, instructing Huo Wuhai to throw him out.
Lei Qilong returned to the courtyard of the Huashan Sect and collected the ashes and funeral attire of his various seniors, including Shi Nanxi, Fire Heavenly King, rabbi Ni Jun, and blind Heavenly Master He Ming—all of whom were contemporaries of the Fiery Fire Ancestor and hence Lei Qilong's grandmasters. There were also more than a dozen great-uncles, great-aunts, and uncles, with the rest being his peers and brothers in the sect.
In his urgency, he couldn't find many boxes, so he asked Xu Feiniang for some cloth and sewed cloth bags day and night without stopping.
Shi Longgu, seeing his handsome figure, came over to visit and helped him sew, eventually making over thirty pouches. She embroidered each one with their names and filled them with the ashes and funeral attire, sewing them shut.
