CHAPTER 57: CHAPTER 57: FEMALE, ARE YOU TRYING TO DIE?

In the bottomless chasm, the strong wind mixed with rain made it impossible for anyone to open their eyes. Wen Shu’s long hair was lifted high, painfully tugging at her scalp.

She squinted tightly to discern the direction in which Wu Xuan was falling.

Worried about the rapid descent, she spread her sharp claws and forcefully pierced them into the rock wall, leaving a deep scratch that momentarily halted her fall.

But this delicate body was not used to such risky maneuvers. The skin attached to her claws burst with bloodstains, and her palm felt as if it were about to crack from the shock.

Wen Shu winced in pain, healed her ruptured hand, and then clung tightly to the rock wall, quickly climbing down.

She didn’t know how long she had been climbing; her palms wore down repeatedly, and the surrounding wind grew colder before she barely saw the bottom.

This place seemed like a wasteland abandoned in the dense forest, with withered trees huddled in clusters, leaving only bare black earth.

The silhouette of the male had landed on that clearing.

Seeing where he was, Wen Shu did not feel relieved. Wu Xuan’s wounds had been dragging on for too long, and now he had fallen off a cliff; the situation was dire.

She anxiously jumped onto a tree growing in the crevice of the rock wall. This tree was somewhat shriveled, and as soon as she landed, it let out a slight creaking sound.

Wen Shu steadied herself, preparing to find an angle to jump down, but then noticed there was a Giant Corpse Beast below the tree!

She held her breath in tension, not daring to make any more noise. However, when she tried to find another foothold, she realized that there was more than one in this wasteland.

Large bodies, like mountains lying dormant under the trees, with some having been awakened by the sound of Wu Xuan’s fall, were shaking their huge heads and slowly rising.

One of them sniffed the air for a few seconds, its eyes as large as hot air balloons glowing red, drool dripping as it walked in Wu Xuan’s direction.

Seeing the Giant Corpse Beast getting closer, Wen Shu felt her heart tighten immediately.

She gritted her teeth and kicked a branch fiercely. The already withered leaves cracked instantly, and then, with a "crack," it snapped, falling along with the withered leaves onto the head of the Giant Corpse Beast.

"Roar—" The enraged roar of the Giant Corpse Beast echoed abruptly, and the few Giant Corpse Beasts approaching Wu Xuan also had their attention redirected, all looking toward Wen Shu.

Immediately following, the ground began to tremble continuously due to the movement of the Giant Corpse Beasts!

Wen Shu’s scalp tingled suddenly. These Giant Corpse Beasts, covered in rotting flesh and as large as small mountains, surpassed even the High-level zombies.

She warily straightened her spine, climbed back up the rock wall, glanced in Wu Xuan’s direction, and when the Giant Corpse Beasts approached the withered tree, she twisted her body and leaped toward another one.

From nearly a hundred meters in the air, she wasn’t sure if this body could remain unscathed, but she couldn’t care less at this point.

The ground came closer and closer. She prepared for a rolling landing but at that moment, heard the sound of wind and rain being pierced behind her, followed by a fierce gust!

Thinking it was the Giant Corpse Beast chasing after her, Wen Shu gauged the direction of the attack, twisted to dodge, only to see a handsome and familiar face when she turned.

Their eyes met.

The male’s tightly pressed lips slightly curved, his sharp brows soaked with rain couldn’t hide the excitement in his eyes.

He curled his lips, and strong black dragon wings unfolded slowly, blocking the slanting rain and dim light, approaching her in an instant.

Darkness surged forward, and Wen Shu’s pupils contracted. She foresaw that she couldn’t dodge, afraid of being directly captured, and hurriedly gathered energy to inject into Wu Xuan’s body.

Dazzling white light suddenly shone brightly, all surging into that charred body, but after just a few seconds, Wen Shu’s waist tightened, pulled fiercely into the male’s embrace with malicious strength.

A voice laced with anger sounded softly by her ear, "Female, are you risking your life for him?"

Seeing her dodging him with a look of deep enemy territory, Luo Fei’s chest unknowingly tightened, and his expression grew colder when his gaze swept over the male on the ground.

He lazily lifted his eyelids, fixing on the anxious face of the female, capturing the joy of catching a prized prey was slightly diluted.

Since that day she escaped, he was angry yet worried he might have been mistaken, repeatedly suspecting this frail female might have died in the dense forest.

Thus, upon hearing the female was being hunted by E Jia, he hurried over, only to witness the scene of her jumping off a cliff in despair.

He tightly pursed his sharp lips, more displeasedly gripping the female, and his gaze halted when he saw the scar on her face.

Indeed troublesome, she got herself into this state in just a few days; if she obediently followed him, she wouldn’t have suffered this.

Noticing the subtle care in his tone, Wen Shu was startled for a moment, immediately scheming, clutching his arm around her waist, "You..."

Heat brimmed in her eyes as she looked up at Luo Fei, her voice slightly trembling as she sought help, "Can you, can you help me save him?"

Her arms holding onto his soft grip made Luo Fei pause the flapping of his wings.

He looked down at the female in his arms; her pale little face was filled with helplessness, eyes misted with tears, pale lips trembling as she implored him.

This gentle and pitiful appearance was just the same as that day in the tree hole.

This cunning female intended to use this look to beguile him again! And still for another male!

Luo Fei stared at her for a few seconds, fire spreading in his eyes, coldly withdrawing his gaze, he flapped his black wings and soared into the sky.

In just a blink, Wen Shu could no longer see Wu Xuan’s figure, only the dense black twisted trees remaining under her feet.

Her expression froze, tears scattered by the strong wind, flying to Luo Fei’s face.

Feeling the icy touch, Luo Fei hesitated for a moment, then, after a few seconds, he looked again at the female’s profile.

Her fluttering hair obscured most of her face, Luo Fei could only see her trembling lashes and wan lips...

He couldn’t discern if her demeanor was due to weak constitution discomfort or because of that useless male.

Still, he didn’t dwell on it for long.

The female’s body shivered slightly, as if sensing she was extremely cold, he instinctively tightened his grip around her waist, wrapping her in his warm wings.

Holding the familiar softness tightly against his chest, Luo Fei’s tightly knit brows relaxed slightly, a sense of indescribable comfort welling up.

Finally captured this female.

His brow arched lightly, he gathered his arms, his cold lips approaching the female’s ear, chuckling lightly in a good mood, "Since I’ve caught you, you’ll be the female of the Blood Beast Tribe, no more thinking about other males. Behave, and I won’t hurt you."

He wasn’t asking, he was declaring it, seeming to imply that regardless of whether the words were reasonable, Wen Shu had no choice but to accept.

But Wen Shu didn’t delve into what he said; she only knew the antagonist wouldn’t help save someone, and Wu Xuan was still in danger.

Her face turned cold, an obscure gleam flashing in her eyes. She leaned back, lifting her head to meet Luo Fei’s gaze, attempting to control him.

But strangely, Wen Shu couldn’t enter his Spiritual Domain at all.
