Chapter 7

As the light pillars went through her, Duanmu Xi looked like being stabbed by numerous sharp arrows, leaving countless small wounds all over her body with blood dripping down.

“Emm…”

Duanmu Xi gritted her lips against the pain but the piercing pain still made her groan.

Water Qilin was astonished to see Duanmu Xi rush out all of a sudden.

How was it possible that someone would risk her life for a contracted spiritual pet?

Watching the petite girl with blood all over her body standing there, the snow wolf was giving off deadly cold reiki.

It wanted to save her. It must save her.

The snow wolf closed its eyes and tried its best to break through the seal with its mental strength against the extreme pain.

“Mistress…”

Ying cried out with pity.

“You’ve hurt my Mistress. I’ll make you pay.”

Ying looked back to stare at Water Qilin fiercely and rushed to it.

“Ying…”

Duanmu Xi raised her hand trying to stop Ying but she had no strength to raise an arm at all.

With a bang, Ying turned her wing into a fist and struck a punch at Water Qilin’s eye.

Though Small as Ying was, she was not weak at all. Hit by her punch, Water Qilin’s eyes just became swollen at once.

“You, you are dead!”

Water Qilin got furious again. It opened its big mouth and spurted out a big water column.

As the big water column was about to hit her, Ying closed her eyes in desperation.

When Duanmu Xi saw Ying got ready for death with determination, her heart skipped a beat. Somehow, she just dashed forward like a flash of lightning and held Ying in her arms.

Bam.

The water column directly banged Duanmu Xi away, causing her to thump on the ground harshly.

Duanmu Xi curled up her body with pain but no matter how painful she was, she still held Ying tightly.

“I…do not allow you…to leave me alone.”

Her weak and determined voice just made Ying’s eyes red.

A mysterious elf didn’t shed tears but now, she really wanted to cry.

“Mistress, I’m sorry…”

Her sobbing voice was full of guilt. If she didn’t irritate Water Qilin, her mistress wouldn’t need to take the attack for her.

“I’m fine.”

Holding Ying, Duanmu Xi stood up with difficulty and gazed at Water Qilin coldly.

Watching Duanmu Xi rise again, Water Qilin had a glint of intrigue flashing across its water blue eyes.

How could a total wreck stand up again after being hit by its two advanced moves? Interesting. It must see how many more moves she could bear with.

As it waved its front claws, the powerful water-property skills were struck at Duanmu Xi one after another.

Duanmu Xi narrowed her eyes and immediately pushed Ying out of her arms.

Bang.

Duanmu Xi was sent flying away again by the attack.

“Mistress…”

Ying felt as if a knife were being twisted in her heart. For the moment, she hated herself so much.

Duanmu Xi lying on the ground was injured all over her body. Her internal organs were twitching severely and her strength seemed to be drained. She was like a ragged doll.

However, even so, she still stood up with her hand covering her chest tremblingly.

With a complicated countenance, Water Qilin stared at the girl who looked stubborn.

This young girl was clearly a total wreck but she still withstood its attacks quietly and resiliently. There was no fear or fright on this childish face.

Suddenly, it couldn’t bear to continue hurting her.

Looking at Duanmu Xi covered with blood all over her body, Ying had a look of determination across her face.

Although she had no absolute confidence, she must have a try, even at a heavy price.

“Ah…”

The snow wolf finally broke through the seal and changed back to the handsome young man in black.

At the same time, a rush of potent momentum of the beast god was struck at Water Qilin, making its legs go limp and directly kneel on the ground.

The power of the beast god?

How could there be the power of the beast god? Did the beast god come back to life?

Impossible. It was impossible…

Duanmu Xi looked at Water Qilin that suddenly knelt and slightly knitted her eyebrows. She seemed to hear that sound again.

It was the moment.

Ying closed her eyes and started chanting the Legilimens Spell. Water Qilin couldn’t move instantly, as if it lost its soul.

It worked.

“Mistress, contract with it now.”

They could telepathize with each other. Of course, Duanmu Xi understood what Ying meant. Instantly, she got a drip of her heart’s blood out and splashed it into the middle of Water Qilin’s eyebrows.

“The life contract is successfully made.”

“Great. We are finally safe…”

Ying’s voice got weaker and weaker until it became silent. She not only turned voiceless but also became more and more transparent. In the end, with a whoosh, she returned into Duanmu Xi’s mental space.

“Ying!”

Duanmu Xi was startled and immediately summoned Ying with her mental strength but no matter how hard she summoned, she got no reply at all.

Seeing that Duanmu Xi was finally safe, the young man was relaxed now and changed back to the snow wolf.
