The summoning array, drawn with blood, gradually took shape.
Yun Jingying was worried, fearing that Taotie would be out of her control.
They then added a beast-taming formation to the existing formation.
Overjoyed, she saw that the formation was almost complete, so she used a sharp twig to cut her palm and continued drawing.
The eerie, massive array gradually emitted a red light, and the outline of a colossal beast began to appear and disappear...
Upon seeing this, Yun Jingying's soul trembled with excitement.
She stood up, about to burst into laughter to greet Taotie, when suddenly the array's halo disappeared.
The barely visible outline of the ferocious beast was blown away by the wind.
Yun Jingying's heart sank, and she immediately looked up, nervously checking the formation.
A quick glance revealed a slender, delicate foot clad in straw sandals.
A very thin red ribbon was tied around her ankle, just like its owner.
Alluring, bloodthirsty.
It's... Ye Sijin!!
Yun Jingying looked up and met a pair of gentle yet aloof peach blossom eyes, which startled her so much that she immediately shivered.
Si Jin seemed not to recognize him, and with a hint of apology, smiled faintly: "Beautiful sika deer, I'm sorry."
"I just happened to be passing by and broke your formation."
"You won't blame me, will you?"
Yun Jingying's mind raced.
She kept wondering if Si Jin knew about the formation and if she knew her.
After a moment, she finally mustered up her courage and tried to take a gamble: "It's...it's okay, you can go."
"No, it's not gentlemanly to ruin something belonging to a beautiful woman and then not take responsibility." Si Jin took a step forward kindly: "How about I help you draw it again?"
For some reason, Yun Jingying felt increasingly pressured as Si Jin approached.
She unconsciously took two steps back, and continued to reply with a forced smile: "No...no need, you don't understand what this diagram is for, so forget it, I can do it myself."
“I understand.” Si Jin said, suddenly appearing beside her and whispering in her ear, “Isn’t it just summoning Taotie?”
Yun Jingying's heart skipped a beat, and cold sweat instantly covered her palms.
She nervously took several steps back, about to run away, but tripped over a stone.
He tilted to the side and fell to the ground.
The leg that Shi Linyuan had just broken started hurting again.
The wound reopened, and it hurt ten times more than when I was first injured.
Yun Jingying gritted her teeth and tried to stand up several times without success.
In utter despair, he cried out, "Ye Sijin! Don't come any closer! Stay away from me!"
Si Jin naturally refused.
He walked step by step to Yun Jingying, lowered his head, and picked up a sharp stone.
Raise your hand, swish—
It slashed Yun Jingying's major artery.
Blood gushed out like a burst dam, constantly draining Yun Jingying's life force.
The woman screamed wildly, but Si Jin sealed her mouth with her divine power.
"Shut up." Si Jin straightened up, looking somewhat innocent. "I was just worried you wouldn't have enough blood to draw the array, so I cut some openings for you. How can you not be grateful?"
As he spoke, he reached out and wove a chair out of vines, then sat down in it.
I asked Xiaoyao for a lollipop, put it in my mouth, and looked like I was watching a show.
"Beautiful sika deer, you'd better finish drawing the summoning circle before you bleed out."
"Otherwise, we might not even have the chance to see Taotie."
Yun Jingying was terrified. She felt that Si Jin was like an evil cat that would play with and torture its prey in every way possible after catching it, and would not stop until it had destroyed all of its prey's dignity.
But Yun Jingying was now like a fish on a chopping board, with no way to stop her.
They could only follow Si Jin's wishes, crawling forward like invertebrates.
I hope to finally complete my summoning circle...
