"Xiaosha... you must live well..."
The past events lingered endlessly in Yimansha's mind.
She was deeply mired in self - doubt and didn't notice the blood dripping from the edge of her thigh at all...
"You cold - hearted girl, we..." Zuo Meng had just turned her head when she saw the hideous monster lift its huge claw behind Yimansha.
"Quick, dodge!" She let out a scream. A beam of white light hit the monster's hand, making its speed of claw - swinging significantly slower.
"Mi Shuang!"
Coming to her senses, Yimansha instinctively jumped out of the attack range. The power of extreme cold circulated in her hands, and the monster was instantly frozen into an ice crystal.
"Fortunately, I made it in time."
Seeing this, Zuo Meng let out a long breath, and the heart that had been hanging in her throat also settled down.
"Hey, you cold - hearted girl, you're being too careless..." Before she could finish her words, she saw the dust rising in the distance.
All the surrounding monsters were alerted!
"It seems I won't be able to taste your red bean pie."
The two of them stood back - to - back and immediately entered a combat state.
Their eyes were fixed on the monsters dashing towards them at high speed.
"Roar!"
The monster that had been sealed by Yimansha just now broke through the ice surface. Even if they had been worn down by time for a hundred years, they were still powerful.
"This is beyond what we can handle, but no matter what, I'll make sure you survive..."
A circle of piercing cold spread out in Yimansha's body, and large flakes of snow began to fall in the entire ruins of the castle.
She looked into the distance with a bit of a bitter smile.
"I'm sorry..."
"What are you going to do, you cold - hearted girl!" Zuo Meng suddenly sensed something was wrong.
The [Arc of Delay] she had planted on the other party had been broken.
Yimansha staggered to stand firm. The snow - flake mark on her lower abdomen quickly spread to her collarbone.
"Zuo Meng, I'm going to activate the sealing spell that Shuangcang taught me to freeze you. It will cut off your life aura, and the monsters won't be able to detect you."
"Don't struggle when that happens... I don't have enough magic power to cast it a second time."
"Cough... Besides me and Wumu Lian, no one can melt the ice. When dawn comes... you'll be saved."
As she spoke, she swallowed the blood that rushed up to her throat.
It seemed that this was the most she had spoken, apart from when talking about alchemy, since that incident...
Upon hearing this, Zuo Meng quickly stepped back several paces and directly cast several Arcs of Delay on her.
"Are you crazy? If I'm saved, what about you? Maybe we still have a glimmer of hope if we work together now. Once you freeze me, you'll have no magic power left and will surely die!"
"I've been in the same situation many times..." Yimansha's face carried a painful reminiscence.
She broke free from the time magic on her body:
"Every time I believed there was still a glimmer of hope, but in the end, only I survived..."
"Zuo Meng, I'm really tired. I don't want to feel sorry for anyone anymore..."
After saying that, she burst out at her fastest speed towards Xiaomeng.
"Since I asked you to come with me, I should also send you out."
Thinking this, Yimansha showed a relieved smile.
But as soon as she reached the other person's front, she fell down powerlessly.
"My magic power... has been drained?"
"You cold - hearted girl?" Zuo Meng was stunned and caught Yimansha, starting to be confused about the situation.
Just then, a ball of black - red fireball descended from the sky and slammed into several monsters that were closing in. The four - person team finally arrived!
"Hahaha... What kind of look is this, you red - haired blockhead! Are you cosplaying the leader of the Beggars' Gang?"
As soon as Wumu Lian landed, she started to mock Xiaomeng. Originally, she didn't want to, but the other person's appearance now was just too funny.
Not only was she dirty and disheveled, but she had also lost her shoes and one of her trouser legs was missing?
"Dog... fire - poker? Why are you here?" Zuo Meng changed the words she used to address the other person.
She looked at her in surprise, and a sense of foreboding immediately rose in her heart...
"You two naughty little ones. Coming here during the [Resurrection Night] will surely be punished~"
Ms. Vesir, lifting her long skirt, walked gracefully towards them.
The thick fog around her roughly pounded the surrounding monsters into the ground.
"Lian, stop laughing." Jolian held a double - barreled snake gun and fired at the monsters.
But her eyes drifted towards Fu Xinyue, who was closest to Yimansha and the others.
Her magic was not as simple as the "telekinesis" she claimed!
Just one second before Yimansha was about to launch some kind of move, Xinyue instantly swapped positions with the monster closest to them, then raised her hand and directly drained the former's magic power?
It was a forced interruption of Yimansha's spell - casting?
"Yimansha..." Xinyue pronounced her name word by word. Then she raised her frost - covered arm and smashed it towards Yimansha's stomach:
"How could you have the nerve to die before atoning for your sins!"
Yimansha, who was already weak, was directly knocked to the ground by her.
Although the other party returned her magic power through this move, the punch really hurt.
"Thank you..." Yimansha slowly got up from the ground, her eyes pained, not daring to look at the former. "I'm sorry..."
Fu Xinyue gritted her teeth tightly, looking at her with an indescribable anger on her face. She clenched her fists and was about to hit her again.
"Xiaoyue, that's enough~" Ms. Vesir stopped her. "Release your anger when we get back. Let's get out of here first."
The monsters that had been knocked away by everyone before shook their heads and stood up. Apparently, their attacks had not taken effect.
The lady released a black fog and pulled everyone to her side. Just as she was about to take them away, something strange happened.
In the ruins of the castle, several purple lights shot up into the sky. All the burned bricks and stones slowly flew into the air.
They collided with each other and reorganized continuously.
In a short while, a slender castle, which looked like a lightning rod, appeared in front of them!
"This... This is... [The Former Residence of Endria]!" Vesir looked at the building in front of her in shock.
Who would have thought that the place searched by countless people was actually hidden deep in [The Quiet Forest]?
No, to be precise, it should be on the eve of the end of [Resurrection Night]!
"But... What's wrong with her?" The lady looked suspiciously at Jolian, who seemed to be summoned by something.
"I'm becoming more and more curious about your identity..."
"Roar"
The monsters with water - drop - shaped heads roared at the castle unwillingly.
Then, the ground contracted like a sponge, and they returned to the seal once again.
Just when everyone thought it was all over, the originally pitch - black sky was covered by an eerie purple light, and they were all sucked into the interior of the castle without any power to resist...
