She screamed crazily and ran over without regards to anything else. She attempted to use her delicate body to break through the compact elemental barrier with a heavy thud. The result was obviously a failure, not only did she not even move it at all, she was instead sent flying and fell back a few meters. Her clothes were torn and got abrasions on her limbs, but she still climbed up!
These small injuries were nothing to the demon king, she could still endure it.
Lin Xiao’s life was more important than her pain.
Calling him an arrogant and conceited child? A worthless worm?
That’s right, Lin Xiao is annoying, perverted, greedy, lecherous and keeps eyeing her chest. But even so, Elena didn’t want to watch him commit suicide.
Even if he was going to die, he should die in her hands! If she couldn’t even kill him yet, how dare he kill himself first!?
No way!
Elena definitely won’t allow something like that!
“Bastard! Hurry and wake up!”
Realizing that she couldn’t break through the barrier, Elena could only pick up a large rock from nearby and clench her teeth as she threw it out,
Elena knew that the stronger the magician, the stronger the magic barrier was when casting higher-level magic. The rampaging fire element contained a mysterious magic power and quickly spiraled, twisted, fused, broke down, and came together again around its master, protecting them like a loyal servant.
But now, what the magic power and element that should have become the servant, was now starting to rebound because of Lin Xiao’s ineptitude.
If she wanted to save Lin Xiao, then she had to break through that barrier.
“I just don’t believe that your magic barrier is that hard!!!”
And so, Elena threw out the large rock onto the pale red semi-translucent barrier that surrounded Lin Xiao.
Boom!
“Did it work?”
Elena took a look but something was wrong.
It was like the rock hit something impenetrable as it made a dull thud and was then sent flying by an even stronger force, back onto its original trajectory, right towards Elena!
Elena could only barely dodge as the rock whizzed by her head, taking several strand of silver hair with it as it struck a large tree, snapping its thick trunk in two.
If Elena was any slower, then her head would have been flattened, but the demon king wasn’t scared out of her wits by this.
“Okay, if that’s the case…”
Elena bit her lips and revealed a ferocious expression.
She actually still had a way, and that was to release her seal and turn into a red-eyed black cat and destroy that damn barrier with one quick swat!
If she couldn’t use brute strength, then there was only one choice left… Elena planned to personally enter the barrier!
She quickly walked next to Lin Xiao and used her perception to observe the raging magic power ahead of her. That rampaging elemental power made her instinctively feel danger and made her want to retreat, but… there was no way out.
“Lin Xiao!!!”
Elena shouted and shut her eyes as she forced her right arm into the barrier!
“Sss…”
Elena kept her eyes shut and clenched her teeth, desperately enduring the tearing pain coming from her arm, not taking a step back even as it got badly mangled.
Due to the excellent recovery abilities of the red-eyed black cat, as Elena’s arm got mangled and flesh and bone were revealed, it instantly recovered to its original state, then it was eroded in a couple of breaths, then recovered again. During this repeated process, Elena endured an unimaginable amount of pain.
Thankfully Elena was a demon and was the demon king that has experienced brutal trials, so her willpower was extremely strong. If it was someone else, even if their flesh could withstand the ruthless destruction, they would have already had a mental breakdown from the monstrous pain.
“Lin… Xiao… hurry up… and stop…”
She finally got her arm into the barrier, Elena tiptoed and tried placing her arm onto his shoulder to wake him up. But she didn’t succeed even with several tries, he was just a stone throw’s away but she just couldn’t reach him.
“You bastard… I’ll definitely… drag you out!”
If one hand wasn’t enough, then she just had to keep going, right?
Elena decided to enter with half her body, then she could grab a hold of Lin Xiao and pull him out!
No… Elena… no… nooo!
Lin Xiao felt like his heart was being stabbed as he watched Elena harming herself over and over to try and get to him.
If Elena really did that, she would probably be torn apart before she could reach him!
If it was just one arm, then Elena would still be able to barely hang on with her recovery abilities and maintain a balance between destruction and recovery, but if she entered with half her body, then her recovery wouldn’t be able to keep up!
You idiot! Why are you so desperate, you’re just a maid, why do you have to force yourself? Elena, didn’t you want to die? So why are you risking your life to save me!?
Lin Xiao frantically called out inside his head, but he couldn’t move at all, as his entire body was frozen due tot he pressure from the intense magic power. He could only barely move his eyes to see what his crazy maid was doing.
What should he do?
He wanted to tell Elena to quickly run, that he was actually still conscious, but he couldn’t make a noise.
When females got crazy, they were even scarier than men! Just by looking at Elena’s strange eyes, Lin Xiao could tell that she was dead set on charging in here and nothing could stop her.
Elena, are you really willing to go that far for me…
To foolishly risk your life for someone like me, is it worth it…
He glanced at that girl with the tattered clothes and her fierce expression and suddenly realized something. He felt a warmth and all of his heartache suddenly turned into affection.
He couldn’t let her get hurt.
He couldn’t let her die.
He couldn’t let anything happen to her because of him.
That was something he had to do!
The most important thing was…
Elena, you can waste your life, but you have to protect your precious body! Your Monarch’s Oppai’s can’t be harmed in any way!
Lin Xiao’s head was cleared!
He suddenly understood why he had to fight.
There was only one answer, and that was because he had to protect Elena’s chest!
If Elena forced herself in, her delicate body wouldn’t be able to endure such torment.
In the worst case, she would be ground into paste! That would simple be a tragedy!
He definitely couldn’t let that happen!
Lin Xiao wouldn’t let that happen even if he died!
Elena’s body was something bestowed upon him by the goddess, how could he let this damn magic power hurt her?
In that instance, Lin Xiao was filled with power, and he fought with every single cell in his body.
Elena, let me protect you today!
Lin Xiao finally regained his motivation.
Isn’t it just a mere eighth-level magic… hmph, don’t forget, he was the the most proficient and confident with magic, there was no way he could lose!
Along with his inner row, the magic barrier quickly shrank and then abruptly expanded!
“What? … Aaah!”
Elena couldn’t react quickly enough and was struck by the expanding magic barrier and was sent flying back like a sandbag.
Sorry Elena, in order to keep you alive, I could only get rough…
That’s right, Lin Xiao was the one who caused that to purposely knock Elena away and stop her suicidal behavior.
But it’s okay, you fell on your back and your body was well protected… I’m relieved.
Elena was dazed and couldn’t even stand up, so naturally she wouldn’t do anything foolish anymore. This way, his most cherished treasure wouldn’t be hurt anymore!
Now then…
You protect treasure to better enjoy it!
So in order for him to still be able to enjoy his treasure, Lin Xiao had to live!
