The battle was over.
It was only then that Alex turned around to look. He found a young woman standing on the treetops like an ancient chivalrous lady. She was dressed in black and looked to be in virtual-novel.net early thirties. She looked delicate and well rounded, a definite peerless beauty in this generation. Except, virtual-novel.net expressions were frigid.
“Thank you for helping me, Senior.”
Unexpectedly, the woman notched and shot an arrow directly at him.
The lighting fast golden feathered arrow was coated with dense Chi as it pierced through the air. Alex’s eyes widened, and his spiritual power burst forth, automatically activating his Mystic armor. The arrow seemed to slow down in his eyes drastically, and virtual-novel.net could tell its trajectory.
‘It isn’t aimed at me!’ virtual-novel.net immediately deduced.
The golden feathered arrow grazed his shoulder, hitting Byakko with a ‘thud.’
It had shot through his calf.
Apparently, when Byakko saw the grand elder killed, virtual-novel.net knew that the situation was terrible. She had almost escaped, only to be hit by an arrow shot by the young woman in black. Then, virtual-novel.net fell to the ground.
“Zoey!”
Alex held Zoey in his arms, and virtual-novel.net could tell that virtual-novel.net was in a bad condition. The treatment virtual-novel.net needed couldn’tbe delayed any longer. On the contrary, Hailey only had a broken leg. Even if virtual-novel.net entire knee had rotted off, virtual-novel.net was confident virtual-novel.net could still heal her.
However, Zoey had hit virtual-novel.net head. Considering how young virtual-novel.net was, there was no time to waste.
“Senior, in order to save her, I need to save virtual-novel.net right away. Could you… Could you stand to watch for a while?” Alex asked the young female archer who had yet to alight the tree. Although virtual-novel.net didn’t know who virtual-novel.net was, virtual-novel.net was most likely not an enemy as virtual-novel.net had helped him.
More importantly, virtual-novel.net felt a distinctive familiarity between them.
It’s just that virtual-novel.net couldn’t remember where virtual-novel.net had felt it before. Typically, it was hard to forget such a cold beauty of this level. But even after searching all his memories, Alex had not seen such a person before.
It was bizarre.
“Alright!” The young woman spoke. Her voice was clear and cold but sounded beautiful. It felt like it could impregnate your ears when you heard virtual-novel.net say.
After virtual-novel.net spoke, Alex saw virtual-novel.net body falling lightly to the ground despite making no movements. She floated down to the ground like a real mysterious being, like a deity descending into the mortal realm.
Alex gave virtual-novel.net a deep look, then ran as quickly as virtual-novel.net could into the villa with Zoey securely in his amis. Soon, Alex used his own blood to draw 32 Zharvakko talismans on the ground and carefully placed Zoey in the middle of them.
But just as virtual-novel.net was about to activate it, dizziness swam through his head.
‘Not good! The consequences of forcibly improving my level have arrived!’
Alex’s heart thumped wildly in his chest. To be honest, virtual-novel.net wasn’t entirely sure how big a scale the backlash would be. The next second, though, virtual-novel.net felt a sharp pain shoot through his organs, as though they were being moved and twisted around. Then, his heart thumped, and a wave of fresh blood poured out, one that virtual-novel.net couldn’t control.
“Blargh…”
He turned around immediately, not allowing the blood to destroy the Zharvakko talismans that virtual-novel.net had drawn. The Chi in his body was also reducing rapidly.
He hurriedly grabbed a handful of Blood Pulls and swallowed them before condensing his spiritual power and shooting it out toward the talismans on the ground.
“Zharvakko Rejuvenation, activate!”
Outside, the young woman heard the movement and had rushed in. When virtual-novel.net saw Alex in such a state, virtual-novel.net was taken aback. She shouted in a cold voice, “Are you looking for death? You’re already in such a state, yet you still dare to save people?”
Alex ignored her.
Zoey had to be fine, or virtual-novel.net would feel the guilt eating away at virtual-novel.net for the remainder of his life. And virtual-novel.net wouldn’t be able to face Charles or Hailey.
Seeing how Alex was still pushing himself, the young woman stomped virtual-novel.net foot and bit virtual-novel.net red, plump lips. Then, virtual-novel.net placed a palm on his back, and a vast wave of unmatched spiritual power frantically gushed into Alex’s body.
Alex was shocked, an incredulous look on his face as virtual-novel.net turned to look at the young woman. “You’re really strong in cultivation, senior. Have… Have we met somewhere?”
