"Lady Yumo?!!!!!"
Seeing the black-haired girl faint like this, Xiao could no longer maintain his original intention of quietly probing. He instinctively let out a worried cry.
After all, the mont Yumo collapsed into the snow, the shadow power around her body rapidly weakened, and her entire presence beca unprecedentedly feeble.
And just as Xiao cried out, the little white wolf behind him that had been told to stay put could no longer control her body. Upon seeing her mother fall, she rushed over in a panic, passing Xiao and hurriedly coming to the black-haired girl’s side.
"Awoo!! Awoo awoo! Woo woo..."
The wolf pup kept calling for her mother and rubbing Yumo’s face with her nose, hoping to wake her up.
However, no matter how much she rubbed, Yumo remained unresponsive, lying quietly in the snow like a lifeless doll.
"Awoo? Awoo woo woo..."
Seeing that her mother kept ignoring her, the little wolf beca more and more anxious, and ripples gradually spread in her scarlet eyes. Although she still maintained the imposing deanor of a giant wolf, Limo now had a pitiful air around her, like an abandoned puppy.
This was the first ti Limo had encountered a situation like this. In the past, every ti she went to rub against her mother, she would respond no matter what she was doing. Even if her mother was busy, she would gently "knead" her head and tell her not to make a fuss. A situation where there was no response at all was simply unheard of.
Mommy? Could it be that sothing happened to her?! Mommy also seed very weak!
Realizing this, the anxious wolf pup kept licking Yumo’s face with her tongue and released her Shadow power, trying to use her own strength to help Yumo recover. Unfortunately, it was all in vain. Yumo still did not move.
Seeing this, the little wolf could no longer suppress the uneasiness in her heart. Anxious and apprehensive emotions spread through her entire body like wildfire in an instant.
Woo woo woo, why is mommy still not responding?! No, she couldn’t really be unable to wake up, right??! Woo woo no!!! Woo woo...
The helpless wolf pup instinctively let out cries of distress. She turned her head to look behind, casting a pleading gaze at Xiao.
"Awoo woo!! Awoo woo!"
Although Xiao couldn’t understand Limo’s words like Liyu could, he could still read the anxiety in her emotions.
The next mont, under the urging gaze of Limo, he surrounded by a cluster of silver-gray energy, dragged his tired body over to Yumo’s side. He knelt on the ground to examine her body. At the sa ti, Xiao kept waving his hands, trying to calm the restless white giant wolf.
As his own magic power spread, Xiao carefully probed Yumo’s physical condition. A mont later, this black-haired man, whose face was a bit pale, let out a long sigh of relief as if a weight had been lifted.
"Phew~, thank goodness."
"Awoo woo woo!?!"
Seeing there was a result from the examination, Limo hurriedly rubbed up to Xiao’s side, howling anxiously to inquire.
"It’s alright, Lady Yumo is fine. It’s just spiritual power exhaustion, causing the soul and body to not be fully connected. Her soul was also forced into a recuperative state. So her whole person has just temporarily fallen into a coma."
With that said, Xiao slowly raised his hand and gently stroked Limo’s fluffy head, comforting this sobbing Demon King. However, considering Limo’s comprehension ability might not be enough, Xiao had no choice but to change his way of explaining.
"Don’t cry anymore Limo, no need to worry. Lady Yumo is just too tired and fell asleep, that’s all."
Facts proved this was the right choice. Upon hearing her mother had rely fallen asleep, the restlessness in Limo’s heart was finally gradually soothed.
It’s just that, after the restlessness was soothed, a fierce killing intent suddenly burst forth from Limo’s eyes. Her scarlet eyes directly locked onto that silver-haired girl beside her mother.
"Awoo~"
Grinding her sharp teeth, the giant wolf slowly let out a low growl unique to when she was hunting.
Although due to her silly head and touching mory, Limo montarily forgot ngxi’s identity, she could be certain that there was a power behind this silver-haired girl that displeased her. Her aura made Limo extrely disgusted, wishing to directly tear her into pieces. Besides, there was no one else around.
In Limo’s simple way of thinking, the culprit who caused her mother to faint from exhaustion and ignore her was probably also this human girl!! ’It was she who made mommy ignore !’ The angry Limo needed to vent her fury!
Without a doubt, the current ngxi had no strength. If Limo were to attack her, ngxi would undoubtedly die.
However, just as Limo revealed a fierce look, ready to bite off the other party’s neck, Xiao unexpectedly reached out to stop Limo.
"Awoo?"
Seeing the magic spear blocking in front of her, Limo blinked her little eyes and looked at Xiao in confusion.
"Don’t kill her. She still has use."
Ignoring Limo’s subsequent confused little glances, Xiao’s gaze also couldn’t help but turn to ngxi who had fainted on the ground, halfly dead.
At this mont he couldn’t help but furrow his brows.
Although unwilling to admit it, from the situation at the scene, there was an 80% chance that the reason Yumo temporarily stopped her rampage was related to the Girl of Destiny.
Indeed, the Girl of Destiny was now powerless. Wanting to kill her would be as easy as crushing an ant to death.
But, if ngxi died and Lady Yumo lost control again, what then? If the calls of the little demon kings had no effect, perhaps we could only rely on this girl?
Perhaps, before clearly understanding Lady Yumo’s condition, it was unwise to take action against her.
Moreover, this girl had saved before.
Recalling the previous scene of the silver arrow helping him break out of the encirclent, Xiao unprecedentedly revealed a hint of gratitude. Although he was usually ruthless, he could also be considered the type to repay kindness with kindness.
The Girl of Destiny saved , so I sorta owed her a favor. Since that is the case...
"Let’s keep her for now..."
Xiao let out a long sigh and made his final decision.
At the sa ti, Xiao’s gaze unconsciously shifted to ngxi’s chest, where he sensed an unusual power. Normally, even an 8th-level powerhouse would undoubtedly die if their heart was pierced when their internal energy was exhausted. Upon approaching the Girl of Destiny, the answer in Xiao’s heart was revealed.
Was that a pseudo-heart?
At this mont, deep within the bloody hole in ngxi’s chest, waves of red light rippled. A heart constructed from scarlet energy was slowly beating within, maintaining ngxi’s life at the bare minimum.
The pseudo-heart wasn’t what shocked Xiao the most. What truly astounded him was the power constituting this heart. Based on his perception, it was clearly divine power.
But it obviously wasn’t the pure golden divine power produced when the Children of Destiny erupted. Instead, it contained a hint of killing intent and coldness... and even a trace of Lady Yumo’s aura?
After realizing this, Xiao couldn’t help but furrow his brows.
"What exactly happened here...?"
The usually astute Xiao felt very perplexed by the current situation.
However, it seed inappropriate to ponder this question at the mont.
Slowly getting up and picking up his "mother" from the ground, Xiao then cast his gaze southward.
"Let’s take them back first."
Afterward, there were still quite a few things to deal with...
....
-At the sa ti, in Anvika, the capital of the Red Leaf Empire-
Thanks to the previous efforts of those in Sky City, this city that had stood on Ancita Continent for thousands of years, the most ancient and prosperous tropolis, had beco history. The once great city no longer existed, leaving only a giant crater ravaged by Shadow power. After being baptized by Yumo’s power, everything within the entire Anvika area was shrouded in an oppressive deathly stillness.
However, in this very mont, waves of energy fluctuations suddenly rippled within this dead silent area.
Although there was no sign of life in this place, the magical power and soul power left behind by the many Holy War Allied Forces powerhouses after their deaths still lingered in this space. At this mont, as if summoned, these ownerless energies began to converge endlessly toward the central area of the deep crater...
Which was the location of the forr Red Leaf Imperial Palace.
