Chapter 16 No, I Hate Him!A long tentacle swept over quickly. Lingxi turned around just now and was swept out before reacting to it.
“Ah—” she yelled out.
Lingxi fell to the ground in pain. The long tentacle that swept over her was with barbs. She was lying hard on the ground, and her back and hands were all covered with blood. Unexpectedly, the Evil Beast was mighty. Her blood flowed to the ground, stimulating Beiming Jin"s eyes.
Before Lingxi could fight back, the long tentacle flew towards her again, for the Evil Beast was attracted by the smell of Lingxi"s blood. Although Lingxi"s blood power was strong, her blood still had a great temptation to it. If the Evil Beast got her blood, it could revert to the condition of its ancestors without hard cultivation for tens of thousands of years.
For the first time, Lingxi felt powerless. Although she had lived such a long time and had been practicing hard all the time, she didn"t know why she still didn"t make any progress in cultivation.
She closed her eyes and waited for the long tentacle. But at last, she only heard the sound of the meat being cut off. She opened her eyes and said, “Beiming Jin, do you recover?”
Beiming Jin was in front of her now, with the long blade in his hand, which was still dripping with blood. It was clear that the blood was the Evil Beast"s. Beiming Jin"s expression was full of anger and worry. For some reason, Lingxi felt that he seemed pretty good at this moment.
He lowered his head and covered her face with his hands. “Lingxi!” His voice was shaking, and it seemed unusual. Was he afraid? The tenderness in his eyes looked a little funny.
“I"m alright. That Evil Beast…” She said with a forced smile.
At the mention of the Evil Beast, the gentleness on Beiming Jin"s face immediately disappeared. He picked up the long blade and slashed back hard. Then Lingxi heard a loud groan from the Evil Beast!
Lingxi looked up at Beiming Jin, but he did not look back at her. Shreds of golden lights suddenly appeared in her body. These golden lights slowly diffused in her body, repairing her injuries, and the wound still bleeding was instantly healed. If there were no blood on the ground, people who saw it would have to wonder if the injury was fake!
Lingxi stared at him. Aunt Shu had once said that when she was injured, the golden light would come out to help her heal and repair the wound, which was much better than the healing elixir.
Aunt Shu said it was her talent, which was inherited from her mother. However, she must guard against those who were interested in the golden light. If it were seen or known by those people, they would do whatever they could to s.n.a.t.c.h it. At that time, it was a problem whether she could escape or not.
Although Beiming Jin helped her all the way, she still couldn"t believe in him. Despite the fact that she was very close to him and was taken advantage of by him, she took strict precautions against him as before.
Another important reason was that he was mighty!
“I don"t know why he doesn"t lose to me in cultivation, though we are at the same age. All right! I recognize that my power is not strong. However, when Beiming Jin fights with Aunt Shu, it seems that they fight to a standoff, and he has a kind of impulse that he can fight against my father, so Aunt Shu always keeps me away from him.” Lingxi thought.
Beiming Jin"s destiny blade was mighty. After several rounds, the Evil Beast was beaten black and blue. After fighting for such a long time, he didn"t have any slight injuries, and the blood made him more excited.
Lingxi finally saw the appearance of the Evil Beast, and almost vomited. It"s too ugly!
The whole beast was black, and the top and bottom of it seemed to be different. The upper part was like an octopus, but the bottom was a golden-legged beast. The one above was covered with creepy and sticky things, which made her sick. The bottom part was better— four st.u.r.dy legs with fist-sized pustules and the mouth reeking disgusting smell.
Lingxi felt that she was strong, yet she couldn"t help feeling queasy after seeing the Evil Beast. “These two parts are different varieties! How do they get together? The top part is from water, and the bottom part is from the land. Is it a new breed? I"ve never seen it before. It"s supposed to be very fierce, but now it"s beaten severely by Beiming Jin that it dares not move. It deserves it!” thought Lingxi.
Beiming Jin endured the impulsion to kill it. The most important thing now was to look at the girl"s wound. Who knew what was over here? If the wound were infected, it would be severe.
He retracted the blade and turned around, preparing to help Lingxi up. Deeply afraid of hurting her, he slowly picked her up and pulled her clothes off, but it was stopped by Lingxi.
“What are you doing?” Lingxi was a little irritated, and she shouted, “You took advantage of me just now, and now you wanted to take off my clothes?”
Beiming Jin compressed his lips and earnestly said, “Cure the wound! If it were not cured, you would be infected.”
He continued to pull off her clothes after finishing the words. Lingxi pulled his hand desperately and said, “Stop! My wound has already been healed, and there is no need to cure it.”
Beiming Jin was surprised and asked, “Really?” It seemed that he didn"t believe it. Lingxi had no choice but to tear off her clothes and showed him the wound on her arm. She said, “Look, I"m fine. I have taken medicine. How could I get infected?”
Beiming Jin looked at her arm, which had no wound. Then he fell into deep thought. Lingxi guessed that he didn"t believe it, so she hurriedly said, “Don"t you believe it?”
However, Beiming Jin hadn"t replied to her for a long time and kept his head down. Lingxi thought that her secret would be discovered by him, but when she noticed where he was staring at, her face suddenly turned green. “Beiming Jin!” She shouted.
Ronghua suddenly stopped and looked back. Xia Pumo also stopped and looked over the same direction, but he didn"t see anything. “What"s the matter?” He asked.
Ronghua looked over there and said, “Nothing! I seem to hear a sound.”
Xia Pumo frowned and said, “What"s the sound?”
Ronghua came to herself. She compressed her lips and smiled again. “Nothing. Let"s go!” She said.
Xia Pumo had no choice but to follow her. However, after walking for such a long time, they didn"t even see an Evil Beast.
“Do you still remember what he looks like?” Ronghua suddenly asked him. Xia Pumo stood in amazement, and he pondered for a while after listening to these words. “Yes!” He answered.
Ronghua asked, “Do you miss him?”
Xia Pumo paused. Looking at Rong"s side face, he said, “No, I hate him.”
Ronghua turned around and stared at Xia Pumo"s eyes as if she was looking at him. But actually, she wasn"t.
“Hating him has more power to keep you alive than thinking of him?” Ronghua asked.
Xia Pumo stopped, and he looked up sadly. The tears welled up in his eyes. “Even so, he had never appeared in my dream,” he said.
Ronghua suddenly stopped and stretched out her hand to pull Xia Pumo. Where he had just stood, there stood an arrow.
After Xia Pumo was pulled over, he took out the zither directly. However, Ronghua stood calmly, with the exclusive smile of her on the face.
“Sir, have you thought about the consequences of the attack?” Ronghua asked.
Xia Pumo looked around, trying to find out who shot the arrow. But the man was hiding in the darkness, and no trace could be found.
Suddenly, a frightful sneering sounded around. “Miss, you"re helping this useless man. Aren"t you afraid of our imperial clan of Sword?”
On hearing the imperial clan of Sword, Xia Pumo was suddenly frightened.
The imperial clan of Sword!
Ronghua also saw the change of Xia Pumo, she slightly closed her mouth and said, “Since you don"t come out, I"ll help you!” A whip appeared in her hand after she finished her words. Seeing this, Xia Pumo immediately walked behind Ronghua, knowing that she would find out the man. As expected, as the whip went down, the surrounding black mist quickly dissipated, slowly revealing what it should be.
The black fog faded away, and people hiding in it all came out. At this time, they clearly could see that there were many people around, who belonged to different schools and different imperial clans. There was no reason why they all gathered here. As expected, there was something wrong with this mysterious territory.
