Chapter 71: Chapter 71
Originally,
Liyu had been staying in the little wooden house in the eastern part of the forest, directing nearby abyss demons to decorate the house while using the feathers her mother had sent to make a large bed...
She was also looking after the little girl her mother had sent back, the girl who slept within the crimson energy cocoon.
As one of the rare well-behaved and steady types around her mother, Liyu always took her mother's tasks very seriously and meticulously.
When the pink-haired little girl was brought to the cabin, Liyu skillfully wiped off the impurities on the energy cocoon and placed her into an icy spring...
While Liyu busied herself in the house,
The release of Limu's power made the little girl frown, her face bewildered as she looked towards the southern part of the winter forest.
Out of concern,
Liyu couldn't help but put down her work, spread her wings, and, surrounded by a whirlwind, dashed to the edge of the forest at a breathtaking speed, leaving her two pets behind.
Upon reaching the forest's edge, Liyu
Quickly noticed her silly sister fighting fiercely with Bai Yanluo.
Although she wanted to help beat up the Apostle of Heaven,
Liyu eventually suppressed her inner impulse.
After all, at this moment, Limu was in a state of power release, certainly with her mother's permission. If Liyu hadn't guessed wrong, their mother must have started another experiment, perhaps a one-on-one combat experiment. In that case, it would be inappropriate for her to intervene.
As a result,
Liyu could only sit atop a giant tree in the distance, silently watching the battle between Limu and Bai Yanluo, as well as the situation within Galros Fortress.
Until now...
When she saw Bai Yanluo gathering strength to attack her mother,
Feeling the spine-chilling power within Bai Yanluo's black sword, Liyu couldn't help but shudder...
Although she suspected that this was probably another one of her mother's experiments,
This time,
Liyu couldn't hold back...
--
In the blink of an eye!
Liyu, specialized in speed, transformed into a jade-colored light and thunderously rushed into Galros Fortress, reaching above Bai Yanluo!
"Li, Liyu?!"
Seeing this, Yumo couldn't help but let out a gasp of surprise and hurriedly tried to telepathically stop the girl's actions!
Alas,
Before her voice could even be heard,
The furious Liyu violently kicked Bai Yanluo!
Yumo was well aware,
Bai Yanluo's full-strength attack couldn't possibly kill her; she just wanted to see how much damage it could do to her.
However,
Though she knew, it didn't mean that Liyu and the others knew.
From their perspective, Bai Yanluo's attack was undoubtedly fatal. Seeing their mother about to be hit by such a powerful strike, it was reasonable for them to worry.
"Sigh,"
It seemed that in the future,
Aside from the matters forbidden to disclose, she would have to talk to these children about other things.
With this in mind, Yumo slowly returned to her senses, her face showing a relieved expression. The displeasure in her crimson eyes from before had completely dissipated. Then, Yumo gently reached out, rubbed Liyu's little head, and spoke apologetically,
"I'm sorry, I won't act so recklessly again. Liyu, so stop crying..."
"Really, really won't be reckless again?"
"Really, I won't carelessly take on threatening attacks," Yumo said, feeling somewhat guilty.
"Okay...."
After hearing Yumo's words and feeling the gentleness in her mother's palm, Liyu gradually stopped crying and slowly released her tight grip around Yumo's waist. Then, Liyu looked up at Yumo with some embarrassment: "I'm sorry, Mother, I wet your clothes with my tears, and there's mud too."
"Ah, this?"
Looking down at the large wet spot on her chest and the mud splattered on her from Bai Yanluo's fall, Yumo shook her head unconcernedly,
"It's fine, I'll just change my clothes, and as for the mud? I'll wash it off."
"Then, can I bathe with Mother?"
"To-together?"
"Mhm."
Liyu nodded,
Facing her daughter's expectant eyes, the doting Yumo couldn't bear to refuse under these circumstances. She smiled and nodded slightly as Liyu watched her happily,
"Alright, as long as you like it."
"Mhm! Mother is the best!"
Liyu inadvertently revealed a sweet smile.
However,
As Liyu smiled contentedly, the little girl couldn't help but notice the silver figure lying on the ruins not far away. Suddenly, Liyu's jade-colored eyes narrowed, and she couldn't help but clench the hem of her skirt.
A subtle murderous intent emerged in Liyu's eyes.
Nevertheless,
Liyu quickly suppressed this murderous intent,
And pretended to innocently look at Yumo, asking 'curiously':
"Mother, who is that girl?"
