When the Hanbing Flame said those words, Li Dai did not release it. She had not forgotten its treacherous and ruthless nature; the moment it appeared, it had wanted to devour Xiaozu and the others. If not for her special Dantian and her spatial dimension, she probably would have ended up just like her grandfather—temporarily trapped with no way to deal with it. Besides, she already had several Heavenly Flames and had no desire to take the Hanbing Flame inside. She always remembered that it was something her grandfather wanted to obtain, and she had not forgotten what it had done to Xiaozu and the others. Taking it in would not only make her feel she was letting Xue Qitian down, but it would also make Xiaozu and the others deeply uncomfortable. After all, who could feel comfortable facing a murderer who had tried to kill them every single day? Furthermore, Li Dai had every reason to believe that if she had not intervened back then, the Hanbing Flame would have attacked her as soon as it finished off Xiaozu and the others.
Her intuition was always accurate. Given that, why would Li Dai ever take it in? Facing it every single day would make even her uncomfortable.
Besides, with Xiaozu and the others around, she was not really so desperate for Heavenly Flames that she would stoop to doing thankless, arduous work. Although the Hanbing Flame was of a higher grade and absorbing it would indeed be the icing on the cake, she simply did not need that extra icing.
