Chapter 393: Christina's worry

Christina went to check up on Tiana in her tent. She saw Tiana lying down on a feather bed.

She walked forwards and touched Tiana's forehead before speaking to the spirit inside her. 'What is wrong with her? Is she gravely injured?'

When Christina had found out that enemies had been sighted coming from the direction Tiana's camp was located, she immediately contacted the Golden Crow Spirit within her. She asked it to be on standby and tell her about the situation and how she could resolve it.

Even though the Golden Crow Spirit was quite young, it was still rather knowledgeable. At least more knowledgeable than Christina.

The Golden Crow Spirit was quite prideful. It would normally ignore any requests that Christina had.

However, this time the Golden Crow Spirit felt forced to assist Christina. It knew Christina that if she refused to help her, this woman would go all out against her.

Christina received a significant boost in her mindscape, so the Golden Crow's Spirit would normally be suppressed by her.

Naturally, this had adverse side effects. In her mindscape, Christina used the power of her soul. If she used it to suppress the Golden Crow, she would fall unconscious and require nearly 3 weeks to wake up.

Typically, Christina would never resort to this method. But this time, it was different. This time, Tiana's life was concerned.

The Golden Crow Spirit had witnessed their friendship first-hand. Christina was going to go crazy if something dangerous happened to Tiana.

Thus, the Golden Crow Spirit seriously checked up Tiana's spirit.

The Golden Crow Spirit was startled when she noticed cracks appearing in several portions of Tiana's spirit. Moreover, those cracks were filled with dense laws of Ice.

Even her own flames trembled when it came in contact with those dense laws of Ice.

'This Ice actually contains a trace of Absolute Ice?! I would need to use my core energy to combust these laws. That would be quite harmful to me. But what do I inform this brat? If I tell her the truth, she will force me to use my core energy to heal this woman.'

The Golden Crow Spirit decided to change her words slightly and informed Christina 'This woman had overexerted her Spirit and is feeling the aftereffects. I can't really help her recover quickly. However, there is some residual medicinal energy within her body. Her body is using that medicinal energy to quickly recover.'

Christina frowned slightly. She asked the Golden Crow Spirit 'Then what is this Icy Aura I am sensing?'

The Golden Crow Spirit was startled to hear that statement. She never expected that Christina could also sense the presence of those Ice Laws. The Golden Crow Spirit was so surprised that she remained speechless for a couple of seconds.

Suddenly, a sneer appeared on Christina's face as she added, "Speechless, huh? So, you were indeed concealing something from me. You stupid bird! Are you really testing my patience?!"

Christina's words clearly stated that she was lying earlier and was testing the Golden Crow Spirit.

She knew that this Spirit held enough intelligence, so it would occasionally try to lie to her. But there was a way to figure out whether the Golden Crow Spirit was lying to her or not.

Christina would ask a counter-question. If the Golden Crow Spirit was telling the truth, it would reply instantly.

If it genuinely didn't know, it would comment, "I don't know about it yet."

Meanwhile, if it did know and was trying to conceal it from Christina, it would remain speechless. This indicated that it was lying.

The Golden Crow Spirit was aware of Christina's trick. But it would always forget about it at the most important moment and get caught in it.

Christina spoke with a cold tone, "I don't need to hear your excuses. Do whatever you can and heal Tiana. If you don't, even I have no idea what I will do to you."

The Golden Crow Spirit was startled to hear Christina speak in such a commanding tone. Christina would never really use that tone on her.

The pride within the Golden Crow Spirit was triggered. She wanted to respond with her full fury "I won't help you. Do whatever you want!"

However, the Golden Crow Spirit stopped herself from shouting out those statements. She knew that flaring up at this moment would only make the situation worse for her.

It would be best to swallow her anger and do as Christina wanted her to. Although it would be troublesome to use her core energy, she could still recover slowly.

But if Christina went crazy, she might need to exhaust her entire core energy to keep her at bay.

Suddenly, Christina's body was lit up with Golden Flames. It was the Golden Crow Spirit controlling her body right now.

Christina stretched her open hand towards Tiana and planned to touch her.

At this moment, she heard a cold and commanding voice resounding in their mind, "Do not touch her."

The two of them immediately recognized that voice. It belonged to Azaroth.

The Golden Crow Spirit's flames were forcefully dispelled as a dense and oppressive aura struck her body.

The Golden Crow Spirit immediately returned the body to Christina.

Meanwhile, Christina was quite confused when she sensed Azaroth's oppressive command and aura.

She left the tent and had a proper meeting with him. She asked Azaroth with a frown, "The Spirit inside me informed me that Tiana has some Ice Energy within her Spirit. She will continue to feel unbearable pain if this goes on, and her spirit will get weaker. I was just helping her remove that Ice Energy. It wouldn't have harmed Tiana in the slightest."

Azaroth responded while staring at Christina's face, "I know precisely what you were doing. However, you will not have my agreement for that."

Christina instantly got furious at those words, and she immediately yelled at Azaroth, "Why?! Do you want Tiana to continue to suffer like that?! I have the power to heal her, so why shouldn't I do it?!"

The words she spoke were the first ones that appeared in her mind.

Azaroth continued to stare at her with a calm expression as if he wasn't affected at all, "Do not judge this world using that common sense you built up while being a frog in a well. You know nothing about what is truly going on. Not you nor that Spirit inside you."

"However, if you still insist on dealing with the Ice Laws in Tiana's Spirit, then you need to deal with me," Azaroth spoke as he unleashed his battle intent that pushed Christina away.

Christina was shocked to sense that much aura. She found it extremely challenging to even move ahead, let alone attack Azaroth.

Azaroth spoke, "I am not killing you solely because Tiana calls you a friend. You stand on a thin line of life and death. I would advise you to not make any stupid moves. Because next time, I won't be so kind."

"Now, scram!" Azaroth shouted, and a wind pressure suddenly struck Christina. The wind pressure was so strong that Christina was thrown out of their camp.

Fortunately, Christina stood in the direction of the Black Lake Sect's camp and was thrown in that direction.

She would have been sent to the enemy's side if it was the opposite.

Once Christina was gone, Azaroth closed his eyes and concentrated on meditating. He was focusing on that chasm around this hill.

Even if he couldn't personally explore it, he could still use his spiritual sense to check just what kind of creatures were inside.

Azaroth was a little surprised that even though his Spiritual Sense had covered thousands of miles in-depth, he had still not found a single creature.

He felt that he was missing something, but he couldn't place his finger on it.
