Chapter 164 Who...are you?

Without having time to determine if it was safe, Mu Ling immediately activated his bloodline, embraced the female master, and stepped inside.

In the last second before disappearing, a streak of blood-red light struck, piercing through Mu Ling's body.

With a muffled groan, Mu Ling, holding the female master, fell into another kind of darkness.

"Mu Ling! Mu Ling!"

As Jiang Xi heard his muffled groan, she was splattered with hot blood, and then she fell and crashed into Mu Ling in the darkness.

She frantically reached out, scrambled off him, and knelt on the ground, placing her hands on Mu Ling's body and releasing her healing power.

The shimmering green light added color to the darkness, illuminating an area of ​​about an inch in radius.

Just inches away, the area remained dark.

But Jiang Xi knew that she and Mu Ling had left the black hole.

She looked at Mu Ling, who had fallen unconscious in front of her, and her whole body clenched.

She knelt beside him, continuously channeling healing energy into his body to repair the bloody hole in his chest.

Strangely, Mu Ling's wounds would tear open again immediately after each healing, and they would become contaminated, constantly expanding and eroding.

"What should I do? I can't control myself, Mu Ling, Mu Ling, wake up! Can you hear me?!"

Despite the continuous depletion of his internal energy, the blood hole in Mu Ling's chest continued to worsen.

Jiang Xi felt a lump in her throat as worry, fear, and terror surged up, causing her to burst into tears uncontrollably.

Tears blurred her vision, and her voice was sobbing. Surrounded by unfamiliar darkness and with Mu Ling's fate unknown, she was terrified.

"Mu Ling, talk to me, talk to me, don't sleep, don't sleep."

"Waaaaah... Mu Ling, Mu Ling, don't die!"

"What will I do if you die? Please don't die!"

Memories from the time travel period flashed through my mind.

Bare-chested, Mu Ling, carrying bamboo, stepped into the courtyard with a cold expression.

When it eats delicious food, it will sprout its wolf tail and swing it rapidly.

Unable to transform into beastman form, he resorted to cheating and stuffed the giant wolf head into the house.

He would always appear suddenly in front of her, and then disappear just as suddenly.

He has the face of a cool guy, but his personality is incredibly childish.

Even though she rejected him coldly countless times, he still greeted her with a smile, hoping only to win her favor...

As Jiang Xi recalled these scenes, her heart ached.

She couldn't accept it, she couldn't accept a future without Mu Ling.

It was only at this moment that she truly understood her own heart.

She liked him, she always had...

Suddenly, a violent coughing sound rang out in the empty darkness.

"Cough cough... cough cough cough..."

Mu Ling gradually regained consciousness, having narrowly escaped death.

He slowly opened his eyes and saw that the female master's face was stained with blood, her dark eyes were filled with tears, and she was crying so hard that she could hardly breathe.

Blood? Where did the blood come from?

Why is the female master crying?

He cried so much that his chest ached.

He was in so much pain that he tried to get up, but as soon as he propped himself up on his arm, he fell back down with a muffled groan.

"Don't move!!"

When Jiang Xi saw him wake up, she both cried and laughed.

"You are seriously injured. Don't move. I'm treating you."

As soon as Mu Ling opened her mouth, she coughed violently several more times, and even coughed up blood.

He could feel his body growing weaker and weaker, unable to use his supernatural abilities and bloodline talents, as they were imprisoned by a strange power in his chest.

He lay on the ground, his wolf eyes half-closed, looking at the female master, and asked in a hoarse voice.

"My mistress, am I going to die?"

Jiang Xi quickly retorted, "Nonsense! With me here, nothing will happen to you!"

Have you forgotten how amazing I am?!

"I can even cure pollution, how could I possibly not be able to cure you!"

Her hands were trembling as she said this.

Tears flowed endlessly.

Mu Ling forced a smile.

"The mistress doesn't need to comfort me."

He raised his hand, wanting to touch the female protagonist's face and wipe the blood off her face.

But when he saw that his own palms were also covered in blood, he wiped them on the animal skin coat before raising them and gently touching the female master's face, carefully wiping away the blood from her face.

"To die in the arms of the female master, my life is already fulfilled."

For some reason, his memory suddenly returned to the Misty Forest, back to the time when he first met the female master.

The female blinked her bright, dark eyes, looking at him curiously, and secretly touched his head and his tail.

"Little wolf, will you become an orc like your uncles and elders someday?"

Why aren't you saying anything?

Can't you speak properly?

"You're so stupid, you can't even speak properly..."

"I'll teach you to speak!"

"Then you must be illiterate too..."

"..."

Mu Ling gave a weak smile.

"If the female marries another wolf in the future, don't forget me..."

As he spoke, he couldn't help but smile bitterly.

"I forgot, the female master doesn't like me, so how could she possibly remember me?"

"That's fine too..."

In this way, he could leave safely...

"Nonsense!" Jiang Xi cried out, "Who said I don't like you!"

You must live well!

"If you dare to die, I'll turn around and marry ten or eight wolf clansmen, and forget about you completely!!"

She didn't want him to die! She didn't want him to die!

"Mu Ling, don't give up! I won't give up, and you shouldn't give up your will to live either!"

Mu Ling's wolf eyes, which had darkened, gradually brightened again.

"My lady, does my lady really like me?"

As he spoke, he thought about how he was about to die, and then he felt that the female master must be pitying him.

It's pitiful that he's about to die, so they give him this sweet thought, allowing him to die in happiness.

I like you! I like you!

I like you! I like you!

Jiang Xi repeated the same thing over and over again, tears streaming down her face.

Her voice trembled, and tears streamed down her face.

Deep down, I was terrified.

What to do! What to do!!

Her healing abilities are about to run out!

Jiang Xi could sense that the treatment was working, and the rate at which Mu Ling's wounds were reopening and the contamination was spreading was slowing down.

However, this speed is still not enough to balance out her current ability recovery rate!

She needs more healing abilities to continue slowing Mu Ling's deterioration, at least to achieve a balance with her recovery rate, in order to possibly save Mu Ling's life!

If only there were beastmen around, she could extract their powers to replenish herself and heal Mu Ling.

Suddenly, a rustling or scratching sound came from the darkness.

Jiang Xi froze abruptly, raising her teary eyes to scan the surrounding darkness.

"who!!"

While she remained vigilant, a glimmer of hope also arose in her heart.

"Is it an orc?"

Mu Ling heard the rustling sound, but due to her serious injuries, her reaction speed was slowed down.

He slowly turned his head toward the source of the sound, and then froze.

"The Serpent Clan?"

"How could there be snakes remaining outside the Jehol Valley?"

Where is this?

He only moves without hesitation when he detects a point of light not far from the glacier.

Isn't this a cursed land?

Upon hearing Mu Ling's words, Jiang Xi's tearful eyes instantly lit up.

She looked into the vast darkness and asked.

"Naffel, are you Nefertari?"

After a brief silence, a clear and cool male voice slowly rang out in the darkness.

"Who are you?"
