Chapter 33 - 33

Chapter 33: Chapter 33

In the no man's land between the Wind City and the Winter Forest,

*Boom!!~*

Accompanied by a thunderous explosion, a holy aura suddenly descended from the sky. The silver light that scattered in the air quickly converged on the silver-haired young girl's sword.

After a flash of dazzling silver light, the massive centipede-like abyssal demon in front of the silver-haired girl was suddenly cut in half! After letting out a few last screams, this level 5 demon completely lost its life force and turned into two chunks of flesh, polluting the pristine snow.

Looking at the Abyssal Demon that had already been dealt with in front of her,

Mengxi slowly dissipated the silver light that had gathered on the fine sword and sheathed it.

"Compared with other places, the Demons near Winter Forest are indeed more powerful and violent..."

After several encounters with Abyssal Demons, that was her conclusion.

Mengxi frowned even more after coming to that conclusion. After all, the new generation of Holy Knights within the Church found it challenging to defeat the demons in Red Leaf Empire.

If they were to face Abyssal Demons in the northern frontier, they would probably die even faster.

This made her feel very annoyed.

"I can't rely on them; I have to rely on myself."

Her purple eyes narrowed slightly, a look of determination appearing in them.

At this time, the several treasure hunters who had just been saved by her couldn't help but look excitedly at the female knight riding on a horse, wearing a pure white mask and exuding a heroic aura.

They thought they would die for sure when they encountered the Abyssal Demon, but unexpectedly, they were saved by the other party at a critical moment.

The joy of surviving the disaster filled the hearts of these treasure hunters.

The holy knight who saved them and killed the Abyssal Demon was undoubtedly their benefactor.

Mengxi's image in their eyes became even Bigger and more glorious, especially when they felt the unparalleled and friendly holy aura emanating Around the her body.

The people's eyes burst with a exitment and faith, even though they were not followers of the church.

Then, these people knelt down and kowtowed to express their gratitude,

"Thank you, for saving our lives!!!"

"Thank you!"

"From now on!! I,i am a beliver of Asumos Church!!!"

"Okay, I understand. Thank you for reminding me, Galena."

Mengxi nodded slightly.

"No problem, it's what I should do,"

Replied the female knight, with a slight smile. It seemed that Mengxi's gratitude made her very happy, as her face turned slightly red.

However, just as Galena was about to continue talking to this lovely girl of destiny, a light cavalry who had just gone to scout in the distance returned and came directly to Mengxi.

"Captain! We have found another group of horsemen near Galrose Fortress in the northwest direction."

"Again? The Abyssal Demon could attack at any time, are these guys not afraid of death? They should be staying in Wind City, but they love to run out at this time"

"Maybe they can't stay inside Wind City."

"What do you mean?"

"I saw those people, they seemed to be slave traders, the ones that Marquis is searching for."

"Really? What a coincidence."

"So, Miss Mengxi, what should we do?"

"Go catch those guys. Maybe we can make the Marquis own us a favor."

At this moment, the silver-haired girl makes a decision that will affect her whole feature.

--

At the same time, inside the Winter Forest near Galrose Fortress, a 14-year-old little girl with pink hair, dressed in ragged clothes and covered in wounds, was struggling to move through the dead forest.

Due to her thin clothes and walking in the snow, the little girl was already trembling from the cold.

Her breathing became more and more heavy, and the constant loss of blood caused her vision to gradually blur.

And behind her, several black figures were constantly chasing her.

At this moment, the girl's face, which was already covered in blood, was filled with fear, helplessness, and despair.

Undoubtedly, due to long periods of starvation and dehydration, cruel torture, and the piercing cold weather, the girl's body was on the brink of collapse.

However, even in such a precarious physical condition, she still gritted her teeth, endured the intense pain from the cold and her wounds, and did her best to run forward.

She knew very well that if she missed this opportunity, she might never be able to return to her family again.

But as the black figures behind her approached, the light of hope in the girl's heart grew weaker and weaker.

"Grandpa, Grandma, help... help me..."

'Yuan'er doesn't want to die. I just want to go home...'
