Chapter 952: Chapter 952 Spoils of War
If Qin Sisi hadn’t quickly sensed the approaching danger, after the Earth Primitive Turtle charged over, its hard shell would have struck her body directly, inevitably causing her significant harm.
Fortunately, Qin Sisi’s senses were inherently sharp. During the process of collecting Soul Power, she had also developed an instinctual ability to perceive danger, which allowed her to leap out of the mud in ti to dodge the Earth Primitive Turtle’s attack.
Seeing the peril from atop a tree, Ye You leapt down imdiately to co to the rescue, just in ti to catch Qin Sisi as she jumped out of the ground, wrapping his arms around her.
Qin Sisi knew that Ye You was concerned for her, but she still hoped to handle this matter with her own hands.
The surging waves of mud extended nearby; realizing the underground assault had failed, the enormous form of the Earth Primitive Turtle suddenly leaped out of the ground.
After this bout of struggle, Qin Sisi had gained a certain understanding of the Earth Primitive Turtle’s skills; she figured it was about to slam its shell against the ground again to cause an attack wave of earth and stones.
Seizing the mont while the Earth Primitive Turtle’s body was still in the air before it hit the ground, Qin Sisi released the Inescapable Net. The sturdy vine net ensnared the Earth Primitive Turtle. Then she imdiately summoned the Wings of Rainbow to fly skyward, the Earth Primitive Turtle being pulled along with the Inescapable Net into mid-air.
Since the Earth Primitive Turtle’s attacks depended on the ground, why not simply prevent it from touching the ground.
Wood subdues Earth; the Earth Primitive Turtle, an Earth Attribute creature, exerted all its strength in a ceaseless struggle but could do nothing against the woven green vines of the Inescapable Net. The hard shell was suited for defense and evasion but lacked significant attack power.
With one hand holding tight to the net, Qin Sisi executed the Vigor Gold Knife with her other hand, slashing fiercely towards the Earth Primitive Turtle with the glittering knife’s phantom image.
Only to hear a loud "clang," Qin Sisi was pushed back dozens of ters by the rebound force.
Luckily, the Inescapable Net held onto the Earth Primitive Turtle, keeping it from seizing the chance to escape.
Qin Sisi glanced and saw a deep fissure on the hard shell of the Earth Primitive Turtle, no doubt caused by the strike of the Vigor Gold Knife.
Though its hard shell had resisted most of the damage, the imnse pain from the blow was still unbearable for the turtle.
In agony, the Earth Primitive Turtle thrashed wildly and more desperately.
Gritting her teeth, Qin Sisi executed another strike of the Vigor Gold Knife, once again hitting the shell and creating a fissure but unable to end the life of the Earth Primitive Turtle.
She had no choice but to strike again. The turtle’s painful struggles intensified, and after so ti, the Inescapable Net began to slacken.
Thinking there was a chance of escape, the Earth Primitive Turtle struggled harder. Qin Sisi dared not delay, continuously executing the Vigor Gold Knife attack, finally managing to hit the Earth Primitive Turtle’s vital spot and bring an end to the battle.
By now, the hard shell of the Earth Primitive Turtle was riddled with many cracks. Qin Sisi looked at the scarred shell, feeling sowhat indescribable; towards the end, she almost couldn’t bring herself to strike again.
Ye You flew forward, with a wry smile saying, "Died a pretty miserable death, hacked to death by random cuts!"
Embarrassed, Qin Sisi bit her lip and defended, "It kept moving around; I couldn’t aim properly."
Ye You ruffled Qin Sisi’s hair and said, "The explosive power of your Vigor Gold Knife is still not enough. If this Earth Primitive Turtle had been slightly stronger, it might have escaped."
Qin Sisi nodded and said, "I understand. I’ll keep working hard."
Ye You softened his tone, comforting her, "Don’t be upset; you’re at the sa level, and it’s good that you won."
Qin Sisi lifted her head, with a slight smile said, "I’m not upset, I’m happy. I didn’t just win; I also learned a lot. These are all things to be happy about."
Qin Sisi’s smile was reflected in Ye You’s purple eyes, causing a tremble in his heart.
Ye You went to cut open the forehead of the Earth Primitive Turtle, only to be disappointed once again—there was no Magic Crystal Stone.
Qin Sisi couldn’t help but sigh. She suddenly realized just how hard it was for Ye You to give her a Magic Crystal Stone.
Next, Qin Sisi engaged in battles with more than a dozen Earth Attribute Demonic Beasts, including the Silver Armored Pangolin, the Earth Primitive Turtle, and the Earth Explosion Black Bear, among others.
In the end, they obtained two Earth Attribute Magic Crystal Stones, one of second-level and one of third-level.
Though less than expected, seeing the spoils she had fought for with her own hands, Qin Sisi still felt excited and thrilled.
Seeing Qin Sisi looking a bit tired, Ye You used his magic power to condense a translucent silver sphere and took Qin Sisi back to the cave they had made their temporary ho.
It was now dusk, and Ye You looked at the setting sun, his expression growing somber.
He hurriedly made a fire and roasted a Red-bellied Golden Pheasant, sharing the al with Qin Sisi.
As they ate, Ye You observed the sun, and when the ti was almost up, he sped up eating a few bites and threw the bones aside.
A few seconds later, the sun completely sank below the horizon, darkening the sky considerably, and Ye You’s figure began to blur, transforming into a little black cat, quietly sitting in a corner of the cave.
Qin Sisi also put down the food in her hand. The small figure of Ye You evoked a sense of loneliness and age.
She walked over to Ye You and gently embraced him in her arms, whispering in his ear, "Don’t worry, everything will get better."
Ye You said nothing but nestled his fluffy head into the nape of Qin Sisi’s neck.
At night, Ye You practiced Alchemy while Qin Sisi practiced Blacksmithing. They busied themselves with their own work, occasionally lifting their heads to catch each other’s gaze, which was tender as water.
When the deep of the night ca, they both lay together on a stone bed covered with fur blankets, just like many nights before, still full of tenderness and intimacy.
The next morning, as the first rays of sunlight touched the earth, Ye You transford back into a tall, handso Prince.
He turned over and looked at the peacefully sleeping Qin Sisi beside him, his expression softening.
After gazing at Qin Sisi for a while, Ye You couldn’t resist the throbbing in his heart and began to kiss her.
Qin Sisi was awakened by his kiss, instinctively trying to push Ye You away, only to be held even tighter by him.
After a mont of passion, both their breathings beca a bit erratic.
Ye You gazed at Qin Sisi’s flushed lips, his hand moving to the buttons on the front of her dress, wanting to undo them.
Qin Sisi quickly grabbed Ye You’s hand, chiding him, "You’re getting carried away again."
Ye You’s voice was deep and suggestive, "Just let
touch you for a while."
He paused before continuing, "Tonight, I’ll send you back."
Looking at the restrained affection in Ye You’s eyes, Qin Sisi eventually relented, slowly releasing his hand, turning her head away, and tightly closing her eyes.
