"Are you alright?" Zhu Jiuque asked Natasha as he returned from the cave entrance, frowning slightly.
Natasha shook her head slightly, her face pale and looking extrely weak, she said, "I’m fine, but I want to know, why did your Dragon Soul save ?"
"I’ve already answered this before, I don’t want to say it again," Zhu Jiuque said blandly.
"You might not want to say it, but I can still guess. It must be because of Ye Xuan, right? Only he would be worth the cost for you to take action. I don’t buy your earlier explanation," Natasha said, staring intently at her.
"Alright, I didn’t expect you to be so clever. Since you’ve guessed, I won’t hide it! For soone like you who harbors ill intent and covets our country, your life or death is of no concern to us."
With a frank expression, Zhu Jiuque said honestly, "The reason we chose to save you is indeed because of Ye Xuan! More accurately, it is because we need to borrow his power. That Hei Qilin intruded into Yan Country, with the sa covetous intention as you, but his threat far surpasses yours and he cos from the Western Dark Council. The danger of that place needs no explanation, right?"
"Therefore, as soon as he entered Yan Country, we discovered and monitored him closely. But so far he hasn’t done anything against the order of Yan Country, and we can’t directly act. However, while we can’t do it, Ye Xuan isn’t bound by this restriction. He can take action against Hei Qilin, and this ti, because of you, Ye Xuan is sure to settle accounts with him. They are bound to clash! Hence, we took this opportunity to save you, and incidentally repay Ye Xuan, that’s all."
"Is that really the case? I don’t think that’s all. You’re afraid that if sothing happened to , Ye Xuan would bla you and you wouldn’t be able to shake off the connection."
With a cold laugh, Natasha’s lips curled into a mocking smile as she said, "If you really wanted to use Ye Xuan’s power to deal with Hei Qilin, there’s no need for this! You should know his character, whether you act or not, he will avenge by finding Hei Qilin."
"The reason you chose to save is simply that you don’t want anything to happen to . Otherwise, if I got hurt under your watch, how would Ye Xuan see it? He would surely think you did nothing and see you as enemies! So you’re afraid of Ye Xuan, isn’t that right?"
At these words, Zhu Jiuque fell silent, seeing Natasha’s slightly mocking gaze, she beca sowhat annoyed and angry, saying, "What a joke, our Dragon Soul afraid of him? Although he is exceedingly powerful and a highly dangerous elent! It’s undeniable we are cautious of him, but not afraid! Our Dragon Soul represents the will of the nation, he’s in no position to make us fear!"
"Natasha, I warn you, do not bring your Southern Federation ways into our Yan Country! Otherwise, even if he protects you, you won’t have an easy ti."
With that, Zhu Jiuque could no longer be bothered with her, sitting cross-legged nearby to ditate and rest.
...
anwhile, in another part of the forest.
Amid the hurried journey, Amanti, held in Ye Xuan’s arms, suddenly looked in one direction, showing a delighted expression, "Lord Black Emperor, I think I just sensed the Hall Master’s location, it’s over there!"
Boom!
Yet, as Amanti finished speaking, a strong energy collision emanated from the forest to the right, as if soone was battling over there.
Frowning, Ye Xuan looked over, then withdrew his gaze and asked Amanti, "Where’s Natasha?"
"About one kiloter ahead of us,"
Amanti pointed ahead and said.
Hearing this, Ye Xuan’s frown deepened, asking, "Are you sure it’s ahead? Natasha isn’t to the right?"
Did he sense wrong? That energy fluctuation clearly ca from the right! If Natasha is ahead, then who is fighting on the right?
Thinking this, he imdiately used his vision to look to the right. However, due to the distance, he couldn’t see anything!
"Lord Black Emperor, I’m very sure!"
Amanti, full of seriousness, nodded, "Not only is the Hall Master in this direction, but even my sisters are here, there’s no way we could be wrong."
"Alright, let’s hurry then, there’s no ti to waste."
Ye Xuan thought briefly, then abandoned the plan to investigate the right and continued on with Amanti, hastening ahead.
In about three minutes, they arrived at a gorge, and Ye Xuan used his vision to see inside a cave where he discovered two figures, none other than the hiding Natasha and Zhu Jiuque.
"I’ve found your Hall Master."
Ye Xuan, showing delight, imdiately put Amanti down and strode energetically toward the cave, with Amanti following closely behind.
"Hmm, soone is coming!"
Opening her eyes, a gleam flashed within, Zhu Jiuque said solemnly.
"This aura is so familiar, could it be..."
Likewise, Natasha looked outside the cave, her eyes revealing a bright light as this approaching aura felt extrely familiar. If she guessed correctly, it was from Ye Xuan.
Was Ye Xuan here to rescue her? Natasha’s eyes flickered slightly, feeling a bit uncertain.
At this mont, Ye Xuan had already reached the cave entrance, leaping across a distance of seven or eight ters to land at the cave’s mouth.
This ti, Natasha clearly saw that it was indeed Ye Xuan!
"Black Emperor, it’s really you? You’ve co to save , that’s wonderful!"
Imdiately, she stood up with excitent, her face full of emotion.
"You sure got here fast!" Zhu Jiuque glanced at Ye Xuan and mumbled softly.
The next mont, Ye Xuan’s form flashed, rushing into the stone cave, standing before Natasha, he smiled, "Looks like I’m not too late! How are you, are you alright?"
As he spoke, he reached out in concern, grasping Natasha’s wrist to check her condition.
"I’m fine."
Natasha’s face was pale, but she smiled and shook her head.
"You’re still saying you’re fine? You’re already this injured, your body’s blood energy is nearly depleted, continuing like this is very dangerous!"
With a composed face after sensing her condition, Ye Xuan asked coldly, "Was it that Dark Council mber who did this to you?"
"He kept chasing but never struck the killing blow, only wanting to submit to him! I wasn’t his match, so I could only escape while burning blood energy."
Natasha said lightly, omitting the dangerous process.
Hearing this, a trace of coldness flashed in Ye Xuan’s eyes. He rolled up his sleeve, revealing his arm, and said, "Alright, stop talking about it. You’re currently weak, quickly restore so blood energy, and later I’ll help you get revenge."
After a slight hesitation, Natasha didn’t hold back, opening her small mouth and biting into Ye Xuan’s arm.
In her current state, she must recover blood quickly, otherwise, she won’t last long before collapsing!
