Chapter 1076: Untitled
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
No matter how many tis she had tried plunging from the sky, Bai Qingqing couldn’t get used to it. That intense plunging feeling made her heart wrench up. Not only was there the psychological fear, but also a more intense biological discomfort.
In the earth fissure, the body of Curtis, who was in a sleep slumber amidst the strong cold air, shivered ever so slightly that it was unnoticeable. His action imdiately attracted the attention of Saint Zachary, who was wearing a grim countenance.
The ice bead ford a magnetic field of its own, and just by staying around it could ss up the connection shared between mates, let alone when they were staying in close vicinity of the non-freezing zone.
Saint Zachary stood straight next to the snake beastman. The snake beastman’s body blocked the light rays from shining down on his legs, making it seem pitch-black as if he was a vicious ghost without any feet, floating in the air.
After the slight tremble, Curtis’s body vaguely moved a little. The ice bead’s light rays passed through his body and reflected onto Saint Zachary’s legs.
In that instant, the expression on the snake’s face with his eyes tightly shut showed a hint of agony. A faint layer of glow appeared on his head. That was his ntal power.
ntal power represented a beastman’s soul. Except for ape beastn, where the stronger one was, the stronger their ntal power.
Ordinary beastn usually only showed signs of their ntal power only once in their life, when death arrived. The soul would break away from their body and float toward a place that was suitable for souls.
Curtis’s soul was being strongly attracted by the ice bead, or rather, it’d be more accurate to say that his soul was being confined. No matter how worried he was for his mate, he’d at most be able to let his body rush over to his mate’s side.
In that short instant, Saint Zachary had already noticed the change to Curtis’s body. His countenance changed drastically. What he wanted was this body. If the body was gone, what use did he have for a soul?
Thankfully, this body settled down after a shiver. Saint Zachary let out a sigh as if a heavy burden had been taken off him.
“Ahhh—” Bai Qingqing let out a short scream, but quickly stopped herself.
She kept on praying from the bottom of her heart for Curtis’s arrival. In an instant, she felt that she had almost succeeded, but then she suddenly felt a strange throb in the bottom of her heart, followed by an intense feeling of horror and anxiety. It felt like if she were to continue, Curtis would leave her forever.
Bai Qingqing felt scared and even forgot to scream, forgot where she was. Before she could give it much thought, she imdiately gave up on the idea of summoning Curtis.
At the next instant, her sensing of ti’s flow returned to normal, and her body landed onto sothing physical abruptly.
Winston and his wide-open arms caught Bai Qingqing, who was wrapped tightly in animal skin. Muir used his wing to catch her lower body. However, as he didn’t have the right to do this, after predicting that Winston would be able to catch her, he subconsciously made way for him.
Parker let out a long exhale and looked around, furrowing his brows tightly. “Hey! Curtis didn’t appear!”
Bai Qingqing already had an answer in her heart, but still felt sad when she heard Parker’s words. Her voice rang out from under the animal skin, sounding upset, “Curtis can’t co back. What should we do?”
“Let’s go back first.” After staying silent for a mont, Winston then carried Bai Qingqing back.
Winston’s legs were cleaned after he walked a little in the water. However, Muir’s feathers were hard to clean, and he couldn’t transform either. He could only keep on moving around in the water, and it took him quite a while before he managed to wash off the mud that had stuck onto his feathers.
By the ti Muir ca back, Bai Qingqing was already warming up by the fire. When she saw him, she broke into a light smile. It was very beautiful, but it couldn’t conceal the grief and worry in her eyes.
“You’re back.” Bai Qingqing asked Winston about Muir when she didn’t see him after they ca back. She then got to know that he had stood in the mud for her safety and had gotten mud all over him.
