"Break" Sheng Tian and Leng Yue Yan raised their hands, and blasted the huge sphere at her.
"BOOM!!!"
The surrounding trees in tens of miles were blasted away from the sheer impact of the explosion.
The dust settled after a few minutes revealing a three figures stuck on the ground.
A figure with tattered green clothes lay on the ground. Her arms were frozen. A deep slash on her back and her vertebra was almost visible. A chilling
A few feet away from her laid two equally pathetic.
Their arms were slashed at multiple places. A dark aura hovered above them, trying to invade their bodies, but its strength was too weak and on the verge of dissipation.
A few minutes passed.
"Ugh." With a weak grunt, Sheng Tian dusted off the rough sand and ice on the ground as he tried in futile to stand.
The stench of blood was still fresh in the air.
His throat felt dry. The deep wounds on his body didn't help.
'Almost killed me.' He spat out a mouthful of blood.
Damn!
If not for his Mythical Dragon Physique and Body Cultivation, he too would be on his last breath.
No, it is not his physique that saved him. Nor is it his Body cultivation.
It is her.
Dragging his legs, he turned to the bloodied female body beside him.
She was hardly breathing. Her pulse was getting weaker.
Sheng Tian could feel the quick loss of vitality.
Even if some pill saved her health, she would never live upto her full lifespan.
"Uh." A discontent growl sounded, jolting him out of his thoughts.
It was Qi Yue. Her eyes were still closed. She seemed to mutter something.
Her injuries were not heavier than his. But Leng Yue Yan…..
Sheng Tian flipped the body of cold beauty and saw her pale face.
It was gradually turning more and more lifeless.
The flow of blood was growing slower. Sheng Tian grabbed her wrist and tried to use his spirit sense.
It didn't work.
His mind couldn't support it at the moment.
Devil Qi Yue's power was no joke!
Sheng Tian could feel his insides lurching, threatening to be churned into a mush of meat.
A regret eating away his conscience. The the moment when Qi Yue's attack hit them, his defense broke and Leng Yue Yan stepped forward.
Most of his profound energy was spent in the attack earlier. Thus, the only option was for her to shield him.
But it didn't end well for her.
He didn't care. He couldn't afford to.
Raising her soft body with his weak hands, his face drew close to her.
At this moment, she was not the proud cold beauty he wanted to conquer.
Nor was she the Ice goddess everyone hailed in the sect.
She was just a girl who didn't hesitate to sacrifice her life for his.
He pushed back the hazy thought and felt the aura around her body.
Her vitality is dropping without restraint!
If this continues, she would die in a minute.
Sheng Tian looked at her closed eyes and a crystal container appeared in his wounded palm. Inside it was a glistening green liquid—Spring's Nectar!
In a swift motion, he opened the lid. A burst of fresh fragrance wafted from the liquid.
It was refreshing, had the smell of soil and leaves.
Sheng Tian could feel his injuries recover at a rapid pace. This speed...was faster than primal seed.
He lowered the crystal bottle and a drop of Spring's Nectar soundlessly passed from it and slid down her parted lips.
A bright green halo spread around her body, covering her as if she was a goddess of nature.
Sheng Tian could feel his injuries almost healed, but he didn't stand there watching.
Rushing to Qi Yue who is now half-awake, he knocked her out.
If she recovered to her peak, he would not be sure if he could defeat her.
He bent down and spread his spirit sense. Now that he was healed, there was no problem and it penetrated Qi Yue's body.
"What the!" Sheng Tian almost yelled, watching the shocking insides of a devil.
The most shocking thing—there was no heart!
In its place was a strange star shaped symbol, attached to her blood vessels.
"Her Dantian?"
He found it to be completely crippled.
Then, the only place would be….
That Star Symbol?
"Sheng…Tian" a familiar cold voice ringed next to him and a world toppling beauty appeared next to him.
Leng Yue Yan was fully healed and cleaned herself of the wounds, looking pristine.
'No veil. Just mind blowing.' He was stunned for a second.
He saw her fresh clothes. 'She loves cleanliness.' He thought.
"How did you heal me? I thought I would…." Her voice trailed off looking at his intense gaze, she averted her gaze.
"I don't understand. Why do you risk your life every single damn time for me? Are you crazy?" His voice grew louder and at the end, he was practically yelling at her.
"I—" she muttered, catching the hem of her skirt.
Her fist clenched and she raised her head, "I do what I like. You don't need to tell me."
Sheng Tian smiled. It was not a pleasant one.
This girl. So Stubborn. She is as crazy as him.
Taking a deep breath, he said "Alright. Do what you want. We're not going to another trip together."
'At least that way, she won't risk her life.' He thought.
"Humph!" Like a child whose toy was snatched, she turned to Qi Yue on the ground.
"Well, we're not fighting." Rolling his eyes, Sheng Tian pointed a finger at the devil on the ground.
"Aaagh!" With a gut wrenching scream, she woke up to find a gaping hole in her chest.
Pain.
Incomparably Pain coursed through her entire body as a foreign profound energy invaded her profound veins, flesh and blood.
"She—ng T-ian!" She spat, her eyes glaring daggers.
"Yes, bitch. Now tell me how did you become a devil." He sat in front fo her and laughed, his eyes deathly cold.
"You think I wi—" before Qi Yue could even finish, a terrifying aura rose from his body and pressed down her Soul and body.
The Dragon Aura!
Even Leng Yue Yan was pushed back a couple of steps.
"Ugggh!" Screams that could melt even the coldest of killers sounded in the Frozen Hell.
Unable to bear the sight, even Leng Yue Yan tried to convince Sheng Tian from reducing the pain several times.
Yet, he didn't flinch and acted as if none of them existed.
"I—will-s-a-y" finally, a weak voice coursed through the air, reaching his ears.
"Good girl." He smiled and nodded "Same. How did you turn into a devil?"
"Cough." Coughing out some blood, the devil woman started "In the forbidden land—Valhalla….."
