Free Web NovelMingxi instantly wanted to rip open her own skull.
She shivered, not bothering to hide it.
((| |●'◡'●)))
She slowly turned her head, offering a fawning smile to the figure behind her. "Well, you know, desperate times call for desperate measures, and an SSS-level is really amazing.
See? I'm not experiencing any side effects now, am I?"
Seeing her humble demeanor, Emerald Green couldn't stay angry, no matter how upset it was.
What fault did the Little Human have?
She just wanted to do her best to protect herself and didn't want them to take risks.
"Jin."
It needed to be informed in advance from now on.
Sneaking around, what kind of behavior was that?
Hearing the change in its tone and knowing that Emerald Green was cold on the outside but warm on the inside, Mingxi immediately beamed. "Mhm, I promise there won't be a next time." fɾeeweɓnѳveɭ.com
Emerald Green huffed, knowing that some of her words couldn't be taken seriously.
In her own words, "Specific situations require specific analysis; sometimes, lies are for protection."
This matter was thus put to rest.
However, Emerald Green did note one thing: the development of potions to enhance Beast Tamers' combat power and defensive capabilities.
Given its Little Human's character and temperament, and now with a divine artifact like the Qianshan Path in hand, it didn't need to think twice; as long as she had the chance, she would definitely act personally.
It could already imagine her transforming into a meat grinder on the battlefield.
For her safety, it would have to figure something out.
Alas.
A Beast Tamer being too powerful was also a bother.
Mingxi didn't know that a large wave of 'all-inclusive tonic soups' was about to arrive. After explaining the reason for her direct confrontation with the Venerable-level pet, the group continued forward, searching for Wangyue Lake.
"Xiao Xi, you said Ji Yue Lin Hua appeared here specifically to kill you, but how did she happen to block the entrance and exit of the Bloodless Despair Abyss?"
When Mingxi previously told them that someone was very likely trying to take her life outside the Bloodless Despair Abyss, and that the person was one of the three guardians of the Wanmo Territory, they were all stunned.
Then, from her, they learned about the grudges between her, Butterfly Demon, and Ji Yue Lin Hua.
Mingxi had naturally been curious about this question as well, but because Ji Yue Lin Hua died too suddenly, she didn't have a chance to ask.
She could only make wild guesses: "She's a guardian of the Wanmo Territory, probably the person most familiar with this area. She might have some special way of finding people, or perhaps she knew my destination, so she waited here early."
Chu Fengfeng's thinking was very sharp. After Mingxi finished speaking, he narrowed his eyes slightly. "Whatever the reason, the Green Field Star's high-level officials must possess a special teleportation array that allows direct transmission from Falling Crow Town to outside the Bloodless Despair Abyss. Otherwise, how could she block you here?"
Perhaps due to the large number of temporary teleportation arrays, the spatial energy in the Wanmo Territory was extremely chaotic. In any case, Mingxi dared not let Little Silver Flower use Space Flash here.
One flash and it would be gone without a sound.
Even teleportation had to be deliberated over and over, considered again and again, before daring to use it once or twice.
It was too easy to fall into uncontrolled turbulence, directly separating pet and human.
"Phoenix Uncle is absolutely right."
Mingxi deeply agreed. She even suspected that they had been secretly marked in some special way when they entered the Forbidden Building in Falling Crow Town.
In a world with a dazzling array of pet beast skills, it was by no means impossible.
Otherwise, if Ji Yue Lin Hua didn't appear early or late, but just happened to appear when they left the Bloodless Despair Abyss, who would believe there wasn't ❀ Nоvеlігht ❀ (Don’t copy, read here) something fishy going on?
"Uncle Shen is old; he can't eat anymore," Chu Fengfeng sighed faintly. "He doesn't even know such important secrets."
The Uncle Shen he referred to was naturally Shen Najia.
Looking at the relationship between Chu Kuangsheng and Shen Linhua, one could tell that the Chu and Shen families were old friends.
Lin Chen: "This cannot be blamed on Lord Shen. After all, he has already withdrawn from the true power core of the Green Field Star. Moreover, due to various historical residual issues, the Wanmo Territory is actually controlled by the Kabu Clan. It's understandable that Blue Star forces cannot investigate the specific situation."
"That's right, Big Fengfeng, you're just talking without feeling the pain. Lord Blood Dragon King has not had an easy time these past few years."
Chen Xin was a hidden admirer of Shen Najia and couldn't bear to see her big brother slander her idol.
Chu Fengfeng rolled his eyes, wearing an expression that said, 'I'm too lazy to argue with a brain-dead fan like you.'
"What kind of expression is that?!"
"Can't you tell? It's an expression of disdain for you ¬_¬｀"
"..."
It was the familiar taste, the familiar recipe again.
The setting sun was like blood.
Mingxi was sprawled out on Lan Yue's back, and Lin Chen and the other two were also carried by their respective pet beasts.
Facing the wind, which carried dust and sand, they walked towards a more mysterious unknown.
Lan Yue, and Black Pearl, who was invisible beside Mingxi, almost simultaneously wrinkled their noses, conveying their thoughts to Mingxi.
The girl looked up slightly: "It's going to rain."
...
At the same moment.
Inside the Forbidden Building in Falling Crow Town, which had just experienced a collapse crisis.
Aethelbert and Hadoro, who had recently replaced Ji Yue Lin Hua on duty, looked solemnly at the withered Life-Connecting Flower on the stone platform, which had shriveled into a single filament.
They remained silent for a long time.
After a long while.
Hadoro, with white eyebrows and a pale face, finally looked at Aethelbert. "Do you know what Ji Yue went to do exactly?"
The Life-Connecting Flower was a special plant passed down by a family called the Fate-Track Clan within their Kabu Clan. It could connect to human fate tracks.
As long as a human's heart blood was mixed with a special nutrient solution and prepared for forty-nine days, and then used to water a Life-Connecting Flower that had not yet bound an exclusive fate track, that human's fate track could be bound to the Life-Connecting Flower.
When a human's body was weak, the Life-Connecting Flower's petals would turn gray, with the specific shade of gray depending on the physical condition.
Conversely, when a human's body was healthy and full of vitality, the Life-Connecting Flower's petals would be green.
...
And when the Life-Connecting Flower completely withered,
It meant that the human had already died, and their fate track had ended.
The Life-Connecting Flower was extremely difficult to cultivate and could only be cultivated by those with the Fate-Track Clan bloodline. Therefore, very few humans were qualified to bind a Life-Connecting Flower.
And the Life-Connecting Flower that had withered into a dried yellow flower in front of them was the one bound to Ji Yue Lin Hua.
"I don't know. She left the top floor after completing the handover with you."
Aethelbert was also completely bewildered at this moment.
Although they were both guardians of the Wanmo Territory, his relationship with Ji Yue Lin Hua was not good, even somewhat hostile.
That woman had an unpredictable temperament, was arrogant and conceited, and had a host of flaws. He and she had almost no common ground.
And she particularly disliked his appearance, finding him an eyesore.
So, at most, they had a normal colleague relationship. Even though they were in the same Forbidden Building, they rarely saw each other.
Not just him, but Hadoro's relationship with Ji Yue Lin Hua was also not good.
It could even be described as hostile.
He wasn't entirely clear on the specific reason, only knowing it had something to do with Hadoro's pet beast, the Aurora Ice Butterfly.
Aside from necessary handovers, they were almost always in a state of 'king never sees king' at other times.
