Teng Yunhe screamed, "Yun!" His entire body melted instantly, turning into a pool of black water that rushed towards Balgada.
Once Afu regained consciousness, he forced himself to charge towards Bargada.
Cheng Huaijin's hands and feet were ice-cold, but her heart was burning with rage, almost to the point of exploding. She gripped the dagger and charged toward the bird-headed, human-bodied monster.
Wu Yutao grabbed her sleeve and met her eyes, which were burning with hatred... Wu Yutao raised her wooden staff and chanted a spell.
"Heaven and earth, cycle, death, rebirth..."
"...May this pure soul be blessed, and may it return to its beloved..."
A soft green light emanated from the wooden staff and shot towards the Thunder Sprite.
Cheng Huaijin was moved and looked toward the source of the green light.
The Thunder Sprite was surrounded by green light, and its form gradually changed.
Not long after, a plump, fluffy ball of fur appeared before Cheng Huaijin.
Pure white fur, big blue eyes, and a dark blue bow tied diagonally in a small bun on top of its head.
"Nana," the fluffy ball called out.
"Thunder Spirit?" Cheng Huaijin held back her tears and asked cautiously.
"Nana!" The fluffy little ball jumped into Cheng Huaijin's arms and affectionately rubbed against his face.
Xue Bingna is an ice-type pet beast covered in fine, soft, snow-white fur. She appears harmless but possesses powerful ice magic.
Cheng Huaijin resisted the urge to kiss the fluffy ball of fur fiercely: "You go back to the pet space first, I'll kiss you after we get out..."
The fluffy ball of fur jumped out of Cheng Huaijin's arms, familiarly leaped onto her head, and proudly declared, "Nana!"
Tuanzi declared that it would fight too! It would protect Xiao Huaijin!
Vargada condensed wind elements into a giant hand, tightly gripping the nine-tailed fox. The hand tightened, causing the fox's bones to creak and groan.
Teng Yunhe... used his life to unleash the [Cursed Night] skill, and has now vanished from the world.
The little armored tiger held the fort alone in front, using its defensive skills to prevent the two humans from being caught in the crossfire.
"Sorry to keep you waiting. I'm ready." Mu Long's voice rang in Cheng Huaijin's mind. This time, the voice was much more mature, sounding like that of a teenage girl.
"Wooden Dragon, come out!" Cheng Huaijin summoned the wooden dragon to appear.
A giant green dragon appeared and charged straight at Balgada.
"You swallowed the dragon scales? Damn it!" Balgada slammed the nine-tailed fox to the ground, transformed into a giant multicolored bird, and flew into the sky to summon wind elements to attack the wood dragon.
The Wood Dragon has only been acquainted with the Dragon Scales for a short time and has not yet fully absorbed their power. At this point, it is fighting Vargada to a standstill, but as it becomes more familiar with the skills, the Wood Dragon is beginning to gain the upper hand.
"Nana!" Xue Bingna's little tuft of hair stood up, indicating that someone had arrived.
Cheng Huaijin breathed a sigh of relief: "They're finally here, let's go!"
"The First Security Team of Dongcheng City orders those fighting in the sky to stop immediately!" A security vehicle stopped in front of the ruins, and a person shouted into the sky.
...
Cheng Huaijin: What the hell?!
As it turned out, the protection team was reliable. They set up a cordon around the area and then sent two max-level beast tamers to join the battle.
The wooden dragon was already dominating Vargada, and with the help of its ally, it was even more dominant, biting off one of Vargada's wings and pinning Vargada to the ground.
...
Inside the VIP ward of Ren'ai Hospital in Dongcheng City.
Wu Yutao lay on the bed, her face gaunt and pale. Her body was rapidly deteriorating, beyond the reach of even modern medicine.
Her eyes, which were originally dull, suddenly focused on one spot and became bright and sparkling.
“You…have come,” Wu Yutao murmured.
"You've finally agreed to see me. Have you forgiven me? I didn't mean to lie to you. I... I was just in so much pain, so lonely..."
"I didn't mean to kill you."
The man who appeared out of nowhere had a handsome face and even resembled Wu Nian somewhat.
“I really love you…” Wu Yutao said to him.
The man laughed, his smile still as fiery as ever: "You love me, you'll help me, right?"
His voice was deep and had a hint of coaxing.
Wu Yutao was already somewhat delirious. Looking at her lover in front of her, she felt that God had blessed her, allowing her to see the love of her life before she died.
"I do..."
“Then,” the man said, extending a metal spike from his left hand and piercing Wu Yutao’s chest, “thank you.”
The spikes seemed to have a life of their own, absorbing Wu Yutao's blood in waves.
Wu Yutao's body deflated rapidly, like a punctured balloon.
The man's hair had turned dark blue, a scar ran from his temple to the corner of his mouth, and his face was slightly distorted... That was Wu Nian's face.
After everything was over, Wu Nian was about to leave without even glancing at the person on the hospital bed when her communicator rang.
[Ding-dong-qiang: Blue, are you done yet? Someone's here.]
Wu Nian, no, perhaps he should be called Bru now, replied: 【I'll go down immediately.】
By the time the security team surrounded the entire hospital, Blue had already left.
Blue sat in the car, fiddling with a small bottle containing a drop of blood that was almost black.
"Is this dragon blood?" The driver in front was an ordinary-looking woman who chewed gum and looked back curiously.
“Ella, even a useless person can’t talk while driving. If you’re going to pretend, at least make it convincing, okay?” Blue looked at her and pointed ahead. (Note: Beastmasters who despise ordinary people call them useless.)
"What a hassle!" Ella sat up straight, pretending to drive. "Anyway, it's autopilot, so I can sleep without any problems."
“We still lack the blood of Eyatos.” Bru lowered his eyelashes, as if deep in thought.
Ella chuckled: "I think Cheng Huaijin's pet beast might very well evolve into Eiatos. Why don't we go and take a look?"
Bruton asked, "Didn't they say they found traces of an Ayatos?"
Ella pouted: "Don't even mention it, it's on Planet Botonorila!! Do you know how far that is! By the time we fly there, it will be 108,000 years! It's faster to wait for Xue Bingna to become Eiatos."
"...It might not even evolve into Eiatos." Blue looked up at her, his eyes showing disapproval. "The chances are too small, it's a waste of time."
Ella shrugged: "What can we do? I've already reported it, and they said we should follow Xue Bingna."
Blue frowned: "Who said that?"
Blue is a high-ranking hunter, and not just anyone can give him orders.
Ella smiled and said, "Chairman."
