Translator: YH Editor: X

Shi Xue it as Ai Hui’s

Her mind blanked in that instant Why? Why was it hi an intense force that released Shi Xue Why was he saving her?

No!

Tears fell down her cheeks uncontrollably while she screamed inside

The red tendrils of blood were like vines that could not stop growing They continuously coiled around Ai Hui, as if they were trying to s him whole

All she could see was the side of his face That thin, huns of emotion as the blood tendrils proceeded to devour him He had not even taken one last look at her

Shi Xueround, but immediately picked herself up in a bid to rush to Ai Hui’s side

A fa her to freeze in place

"Looks like I’ve accidentally saved you again Remember to record it on your tab"

The mad, frenzied blood tendrils suddenly vanished without a trace, as though the entire thing had ain see the fa her vision

"Hey, why are you crying? Are you trying to renege on your debt?"

Ai Hui was shocked to see the Iron Lady’s tearful face, particularly since this was the first time he had seen her cry Shi Xueman had lost all of her usual loftiness and reirl who had just been bullied

Ai Hui was a little bit embarrassed He waved his hand and said, "Fine, fine, I won’t charge you this ti like raindrops

Ai Hui scratched his head in puzzlement As an iron lady, her mind and body should both be as solid as iron She htened by what happened

Just as Ai Hui was starting to get a headache, Shi Xueh of relief

Shi Xueman, who had stifled her tears, walked expressionlessly toward Ai Hui She snatched Cirrus back from him and asked, "What happened to those blood tendrils?"

"Women are indeed as fickle as the weather," , "They were absorbed by ht Every knew that the bandages Ai Hui ere a gift from his mistress and were artifacts left behind by an ancient blood sect

No wonder he calared coldly at Ai Hui

Ai Hui rubbed his nose innocently, unsure of what he had done to provoke her again This ti with her His instincts told him that it was a terrible time to incur her wrath

Ai Hui shouted for Lou Lan at the top of his lungs, "Lou Lan! Lou Lan!"

"Lou Lan’s here," Lou Lan announced as he eed from the rocks

"Is it possible to seal up these crevices?" Ai Hui asked

"Leave it to ot to work

Ai Hui ood mood Lou Lan was still the best

Out of the blue, Shi Xueman inquired, "How did you co was outside the noodle shop I was later captured by her during a scouting expedition and almost becaes," recollected Ai Hui

Shi Xue so, Shi Xueman proceeded to probe further "What else do you know about the blood ele his head "They’re backed by an organization that is very likely responsible for causing the blood disaster This, of course, is e any e since his conversation with the old prisoner would probably land him in trouble

The reinforcements’ delay led Ai Hui to conclude that the Blood of God had the upper hand The old prisoner’s group existed solely to take on the Blood of God, but ended up in a terrible state From this, Ai Hui deduced that the Blood of God had infiltrated the Avalon of Five Ele partially from inside Ai Hui looked at the situation from the perspective of the Blood of God and decided that he too would have done the same

This would also explain why the Blood of God had such a thorough understanding of the weaknesses of the Avalon of Five Ele to arrive Everything appeared to be under the watchful eye of the Blood of God

Again, these were only his conjectures There were still too many unknowns to be sure
