Chapter 7 . 1: Deep Sleep
When the light beams pa.s.sed her, Duanmu Xi felt as if she had been pierced by countless sharp arrows, and an innumerable number of tiny small wounds appeared all over her body, every single one of those wounds trickling out a small trace of blood .
“Ungh… . . ”
Duanmu Xi bit on her lip hard, but the bone piercing pain still caused her to let out a soft groan .
The Water Qilin looked at Duanmu Xi who had suddenly rushed forward, taken aback with surprise .
To think that someone would risk their own life so readily for a contracted spirit pet .
Seeing the small figure standing there all covered in blood, the Snow Wolf’s body began to exude a chilling murderous aura that stemmed from deep down inside .
[I have to save her . I must save her . ]
The Snow Wolf closed its eyes and endured the intense pain wrecking at it as it focused its mental powers to break the seal inside its body .
“Mistress… . . ”
Little Shadow called out in surprise, her heart aching for her Mistress .
“You dare hurt my Mistress, I’ll fight you with everything I have!”
Little Shadow turned and glared fiercely at the Water Qilin, charging straight towards it .
“Little Shadow… . . ”
Duanmu Xi tried to raise her hand to stop Little Shadow, but she was not able to lift her hand at all .
‘Bam . ’ Little Shadow’s wings turned into fists and it struck the Water Qilin viciously on its eye .
Don’t judge Little Shadow just by her teensy size, her strength was not weak at all . With just one punch, the Water Qilin’s left eye immediately swelled up .
“You! You’re courting your own death!”
The Water Qilin was once again enraged . It opened its jaws wide and a great pillar of water shot out .
Seeing that the great big pillar of water was about to crash right onto herself, Little Shadow closed her eyes, resigned to her fate .
When she saw that Little Shadow had decided to embrace death, Duanmu Xi’s heart suddenly quivered and she did not know where that kind of strength came from, Duanmu Xi rushed forward quick as lightning to hold Little Shadow in a tight embrace .
‘Bam… . . ’
The great pillar of water struck and sent Duanmu Xi flying out, and she then crashed heavily to the ground .
Duanmu Xi curled up her body tightly from the immense pain . But no matter how painful it was, her arms were still tightly wrapped around Little Shadow .
“I… . . will not allow… . . you to leave me behind . ”
The weak but resolute voice, caused Little Shadow’s eyes to become red and puffy .
Mystical sprites do not shed tears, but it really felt like crying right at that moment .
“Mistress, I’m sorry… . . ”
The choked voice was filled with guilt and remorse . If she had not gone to provoke the Water Qilin, her Mistress would not have been dragged in together with her .
“I’m alright . ”
Duanmu Xi hugged Little Shadow tight and struggled to stand up before she stared coldly at the Water Qilin .
[That useless piece of trash is still able to stand up after taking two blows from the high level techniques he had executed . Interesting . I would really like to see how many more of my techniques you can withstand . ]
Chapter 7 . 2: Deep Sleep
With a swipe of its paw, powerful water techniques surged towards Duanmu Xi one after another in succession .
Duanmu Xi’s gaze darkened and she immediately pushed Little Shadow out from her arms .
‘Bam… . . ’
Duanmu Xi was once again sent flying .
“Mistress… . . ”
Little Shadow felt as if a blade was slicing her heart . She really hated herself at that moment .
Fallen on the ground, not a single square inch of Duanmu Xi’s skin on her body was intact . She felt a wincing pain in all her organs inside, the strength in her entire body sucked out of her, lying there like a limp rag doll .
But even though that was the case, she still clutched her chest and struggled to stand up, trembling visibly .
The Water Qilin stared at the stubborn and obstinate girl with a rather complicated gaze standing in front .
That young girl was obviously just weak and useless trash but she was resolutely withstanding its attacks stubbornly, and not the slightest sliver of fear or terror could be seen on that young and puerile looking face .
All of a sudden, it felt like it could no longer continue to strike her down .
Looking at the blood covered Duanmu Xi, Little Shadow’s face flashed with a moment of determined resolve .
Although she was not completely confident, but no matter what, she must still give it a try, even if she had to pay a heavy price for it .
“ARRGH… . . ”
The Snow Wolf had finally managed to break through its seal and he turned himself back into a black robed youth of unmatched beauty .
At the same time, a powerful wave of oppressive aura from the G.o.d of Beasts surged straight towards the Water Qilin . The Water Qilin felt its legs go weak and it fell to its knees .
[Power of the G.o.d of Beasts?]
[How could this be the power of the G.o.d of Beasts? Has the G.o.d of Beasts come back to life?]
[Impossible . That is not possible… . . ]
Duanmu Xi looked at the Water Qilin who had suddenly fallen to its knees and her brows knitted up . She seemed to have just heard that voice again .
Right at this moment .
Little Shadow closed her eyes and chanted the “Soul Absorbing Spell” . The Water Qilin was not able to move, like it had lost its soul .
[It had actually worked . ]
“Mistress, form a contract quickly . ”
The two of them were linked in mind and Duanmu Xi had naturally understood what Little Shadow meant immediately . She quickly gathered up a drop of blood just over her heart and dripped it right between the Water Qilin’s brows .
“This successfully concludes our life binding contract . ”
“That’s great . We’re fine now… . . ”
Little Shadow’s voice was growing weaker and weaker, till it trailed off completely in the end . Not just her voice, but even Little Shadow’s body was becoming more and more translucent . In the end, with a whoosh, she was returned back into the s.p.a.ce in Duanmu Xi’s consciousness .
“Little Shadow!”
Duanmu Xi was greatly startled and she immediately called out to Little Shadow with her mental powers . But no matter how hard she called, it was like a rock sinking into the ocean, not getting any kind of response at all .
Seeing that Duanmu Xi was now safe, the youth’s heart then felt a sense of relief and he turned himself back into the Snow Wolf .
