C133 (1/2)
The tiger was anxious, it roared and used its tail to attack Bai Zhixi, who jumped away quickly and took the chance to turn around, raised his sword and used his entire strength to stab towards the tiger's head.
Perhaps the tiger's eyes had been blinded by the impact as it dragged its fat body into the secret room, causing dust to splash up and cover its eyes.
Bai Zhixi took the chance and rose into the air, thrusting his sword into the tiger's eyes. The tiger roared, and like a deflated ball, it fell to the ground, dying.
Blood sprayed everywhere, dying her eyes red.
There was a warm stream of blood on her face. It was as if she had tasted blood. It was salty but not greasy. A strong fishy smell filled her entire mouth and nose.
After a long while, Bai Zhixi slowly stood up and walked forward with his exhausted body.
The further they walked, the more the blood bead moved. It continued to tear apart every single part of her body.
A faint light flowed out from the dark room in front of her, causing her eyes to hurt and her body to uncontrollably move forward.
She also felt the excitement of the blood bead in her body, as if that was the place she belonged.
”Boom!”
The moment she stepped into the stone house, the stone door fell down heavily and locked her inside.
Suddenly, a ”pfft pfft pfft” sound was heard. She was jolted awake. She raised her head to look in front of her. A ball of fire was faintly discernible in the distance. She calmed herself down and walked step by step towards the blazing fire.
When she was only one step away from the raging inferno, it suddenly ignited, smashing straight towards her.
Without giving it much time to think, he managed to dodge the raging inferno with a flip of his hand. He quickly pressed down on the bangle, and the sharp sword stabbed into the raging fire, gaining the initiative.
The ball of fire seemed to understand human nature, upon seeing Bai Zhixi use his sword to stab at it, it suddenly dimmed, and turned into a transparent scarlet pearl. It flew past Bai Zhixi and towards the front.
Bai Zhixi calmly followed it. After walking for a long time, he saw that she had steadily stopped in two icy worlds.
The snow-capped pillars were crystal clear, and each pillar was like an ice sculpture, supporting everything in this ice house.
On the ice-covered table in front of her, the pearl that had been teasing her earlier was lying quietly in the ice sculpture box. It was extremely quiet, as if it hadn't come out yet.
The blood bead in his body urged him to jump even more excitedly than before. She steadied her heart and didn't have the heart to appreciate the feeling between her eyebrows. Step by step, she walked towards the bead.
There was always a voice in her heart telling her that she must get the whole pearl.
Her heart leaped into her throat as she scanned her surroundings. After confirming that there were no traps, she carefully approached the pearl and held it in her hand.
A wave of ice-cold Qi instantly struck the blood bead in her body and moved even more violently, as if it was going to explode out from her body.
Suddenly, the bead in her hand also began to stir up, constantly moving up and down around her, causing her to become restless and restless.
In a place where she couldn't see, the red plum blossom on her forehead was bewitching and enchanting. One spirit butterfly after another flew out from the plum blossom and surrounded Bai Zhixi.
”Master!”
Bai Zhixi seemed to have heard the child's shout, she turned her head and looked around, but did not see anything.
When she saw the butterfly on her shoulder, she took two steps back in fear. Could it be that the butterfly was the one who shouted?
Bai Zhixi endured the shock in his heart, staring at the butterfly without changing his expression.
”Master, this is the other half of the blood bead.”
After the butterfly that was looking at her spoke, it saw dozens of butterflies slowly flying towards it, hugging the half crystal clear red bead.
Bai Zhixi, who was still in shock, watched helplessly as this bunch of beautiful blurs hugged this mysterious red bead and crawled into his brows.
In that instant, she felt a wave of dizziness, seeing everything in the ice house shaking non-stop, as if the earth was shaking and the mountains were shaking.
The battle between the ice and fire in her dantian seemed to have begun again, and her clothes were drenched in sweat from the torture. His body went limp and he crashed onto the ice. He didn't even seem to feel any pain.
The world seemed to have frozen. Only she was left lying in this cold and merciless place, suffering the fate of her own life. She slowly closed her eyes.
”Xi Er, wake up …”
In her sleep, she heard a voice as gentle as water calling her name.
She slowly opened her eyes. What entered her eyes was a devastatingly beautiful woman with a gentle expression on her face.
”You are …”
Bai Zhixi struggled to get up, only to realize that he was still in the ice house. His entire body was drenched in ice, and at the moment, he was extremely cold.
Raising her head to look at the woman, her beautiful eyebrows faintly frowned, revealing a hint of worry on her delicate face. This added a sense of pity to her originally extraordinarily beautiful appearance.
She could actually see her own shadow on the woman's body. They looked very similar, almost exactly the same. Especially those eyes that carried an exotic charm.
However, there was a faint look of worry on the woman's face, adding to her charm.
”Xi Er, I am mother! Don't you remember? ”
When the beautiful woman heard her words and saw her cautious appearance, her eyes immediately bulged out of their sockets; she was in a miserable state.
Mother?
When she heard the woman say this, she felt a stabbing pain in her heart. Ever since she was born, she had never enjoyed the feeling of having a mother, not to mention that this person was not her own mother.
