Chapter 154: Begging on Bended Knee

Chapter 154: Begging on Knees

"Mill!"

Qi'er, who had been trying her best to persuade Elijah, suddenly underwent a drastic change in expression. Her face instantly turned pale, devoid of the slightest trace of blood. Then, as if grasping at the final straw of her life, she collapsed directly to her knees before the somewhat bewildered Elijah.

"Teacher Elijah, I beg you, please go and save Mill! Geda has suddenly turned on Mill! Teacher Elijah, I'm begging you, please go save Mill! I'm begging you, Teacher Elijah, I beg you..."

Clutching at the hem of Elijah's robe, Qi'er cried out incoherently to him, constantly kowtowing. Bits of grass instantly stained her fair forehead, and hot tears rolled down her dust-covered cheeks, tracing two distinct paths.

"Qi'er, what are you doing?"

Frowning at Qi'er, who suddenly acted as if she had lost her mind, Elijah moved slightly and took half a step back. With a casual wave of his hand, a grey halo enveloped Qi'er—it was mental magic... Mental Comfort!

"Teacher Elijah, there is a special connection between the direct bloodline members of our Fox Clan, allowing us to vaguely sense each other's safety. Just now, I suddenly felt my sister Mill's life force gradually draining away, and the bloodline energy of the Celestial Fox Charm Physique within her is being absorbed by someone else! This is the consequence of suffering a backlash while activating the Celestial Fox Charm Physique!"

"Geda has never allowed Mill to step out of his courtyard. Now that Mill is experiencing this, it must be that Geda tricked Mill into using the Celestial Fox Charm Physique, and now the backlash has begun, absorbing the bloodline energy of the Celestial Fox Charm Physique!"

"Given Geda's temperament, he would not have touched Mill before I succeeded. Something must have happened in between! Teacher Elijah, I'm begging you, please go save Mill right now! If we are too late, Mill will certainly be sucked dry and left as a corpse!"

Quieting down just a bit, Qi'er started kowtowing again as she spoke, because she could clearly feel the fading of Mill's life force. There was not a moment to lose. She could not even step out of the inner courtyard, let alone save her own sister; her only option was to beg Elijah for help.

"Qi'er! I am going to save Mill right now!"

Pulling Qi'er up, a trace of guilt flashed in Elijah's eyes, but the next moment, his expression shifted abruptly, shock filling his gaze.

"Damn it, what on earth is Geda trying to do? He actually dares to break through the seal of the Tianxuan Academy!"

Cursing angrily and exasperatedly, Elijah hesitated no longer. With a movement of his body, he vanished from the spot, leaving behind a ground covered in silvery-white moonlight and a pretty figure with a face as ashen as death...

*************************************

When the first ray of morning sunlight pierced into the forest, all the diurnal magical beasts woke up one by one. The Trial Forest, which had been silent for just a moment, boiled with life once again.

"Wang Luo!"

Watching his surroundings with vigilance after staying awake all night guarding Wang Luo, Gu Si revealed a pleasantly surprised smile upon seeing Wang Luo wake up. Reflected in the morning sun, the smile on that honest face was exceptionally bright, brimming with the vitality of youth.

"I'm fine!"

With a faint smile, Wang Luo rubbed Gu Si's tender cheeks and stood up. Instantly, a series of crackling sounds, like popping beans, emanated from his body.

Roar, hum, squeak, chitter...

The three beasts simultaneously let out sounds filled with surprise, without distinction of priority. Each of them pounced toward Wang Luo. The little black monkey, being the smallest, jumped directly onto Wang Luo, perched on his head, and grabbed his hair to express its joy.

"Ah, another new day!"

Opening his arms, inhaling deeply the unique air of the vast forest, and watching the sun slowly rising in the east, Wang Luo, for no particular reason, felt wonderful and let out a sigh of exclamation.

"Hey, Gu Si, do you know that every time I saw the morning sun before, I used to feel extremely grateful—grateful that I had survived for yet another day. That's why I love the newly risen sun in the morning, hehe..."

Turning his head to look at Gu Si, who was smiling at him, Wang Luo said cheerfully. Then, a smile bloomed on his face as he pulled Gu Si into his embrace and gently kissed him on the lips.

"Hehe, after the spiritual herbs are unearthed, big brother will let you have a real treat. This time, we won't use these!"

Dodge Gu Si's proactively offered soft tongue, Wang Luo pinched his blushing cheek, waved his index and middle fingers right before his eyes, and said with a mischievous smile. Then, not giving Gu Si time to react, he leaped and landed on a branch. With a gentle tap upon it, his body soared forward through the forest like an ape among the trees.

Roar, hum, squeak, chitter...

Seeing this, the three beasts shouted and followed closely behind. No one noticed the two cyan figures gradually emerging from the forest not far away.

"I didn't expect this fire bear to actually be tamed by Wang Luo. However, why on earth did he tame a fire bear with so much potential? Could it be to win the favor of Teacher Enlai?"

Watching the fire bear running behind Wang Luo, Beiyate rubbed his chin and asked Hanluode with some confusion, yet received no response whatsoever.

"Eh, Hanluode, what is wrong with you?"

Turning his head, Beiyate realized that Hanluode's face had grown gloomy at some point, his eyes glowing with an eerie, greenish light that sent chills down the spine.

"Beiyate, do you know how one can forget a person?"

"(⊙o⊙) Ah!? Who are you trying to forget?"

Hearing this, Beiyate could not help but be stunned, then asked with intense curiosity. Could it be that those rumors were true—that this cousin of his had genuinely fallen in love, and the object of his affection was that little brat...

"Hanluode, I think we need to have a good talk!"

Seeing the lingering, unresolvable sorrow hanging on Hanluode's face as he quietly gazed at that imperceptible figure in the distance, Beiyate felt that the rumors might actually be true. He reached out and patted Hanluode's shoulder, speaking with profound meaning.

"Talk about what?"

Pulling himself out of his thoughts, Hanluode turned to look at Beiyate beside him and asked.

"Talk about men, hehe. Come on, let's chat as we walk!"

With a sly grin, Beiyate took the lead, transforming into a cyan streak as he sprinted deep into the forest. Startled for a moment, Hanluode accelerated past him instantly, catching up to Beiyate while clearly keeping his speed under control.

"Phew... Tier 7 is truly monstrous. I need to advance to Tier 7 quickly too, so I can finally get close to Qi'er!"

Turning his head just in time to see Hanluode catch up, Beiyate let out a breath, his fighting spirit for advancing to Tier 7 intensifying a bit more.

"Beiyate, do you know Qi'er's true identity? She possesses the Celestial Fox Charm Physique. You wouldn't happen to have become subject to her charm, would you? Well, rumor has it that her body is rather peculiar!"

Hearing Qi'er's name once again from Beiyate's lips, a smile could not help but form at the corner of Hanluode's mouth. Thinking of Qi'er's bizarre constitution, he shuddered involuntarily, pondering whether he should tell Beiyate now or wait for Beiyate to discover it himself...
