Abyssal Chronicles

Chapter 178 - 179: Tracking

At this moment,

Mengxi, who was in a deep sleep, secretly opened her right eye and looked at the black-haired girl standing in front of her, not far away. Upon sensing Wilt’s soaring aura and the vast power emanating from the energy spear, Mengxi couldn’t help but feel worried for her sister Yumo.

Such an attack would undoubtedly be destructive! Yumo Could be in danger...

If her body wasn’t at its limit,

Mengxi would have the urge to go and help.

Upon seeing the black-haired girl choosing to confront Wilt’s attack head-on, Mengxi’s heart started to beat wildly.

Although Mengxi knew from the conversation between Yumo and Wilt that Yumo had approached her with a purpose, Mengxi still didn’t want to see the girl get hurt while protecting her...

However,

Soon, Mengxi was astonished to find out,

It seemed she had underestimated her sister strength...

Wilt’s grand attack, with its imposing power, still made Mengxi feel suffocated and her soul tremble, even with the protection of Yumo’s barrier. But such a powerful attack was easily dispelled by Yumo after being hit?

It was simply unimaginable...

Moreover,

What puzzled Mengxi, even more, was Yumo’s strange reaction after being hit...

Under normal circumstances, one should feel pain, get angry, or even counterattack after being hit by such an attack. However, Yumo inexplicably stood still and even kept emitting clear and pleasant laughter. From her words, Mengxi could confirm that Yumo was genuinely happy.

But,

’Why would she be happy after being hurt?’

’What’s going on?’

Recalling the scene when her divine power burst from within her body, and she accidentally saw Yumo hitting her head against the wall...

At this moment, some strange thoughts surfaced in Miss Mengxi’s mind,

Could it be,

’Does Sister Yumo have a masochistic tendency?’

Or,

’Is my sister actually an M??’

Recalling some inappropriate content from books she had read before, Mengxi couldn’t help but entertain this odd speculation. Meanwhile, Yumo in front of her suddenly felt a chill down her spine and quickly turned her head to look behind her...

What’s going on?

Suddenly, an ominous bad feeling hit her…

--

One day in the future,

When Yumo was surprised to find herself suddenly stripped bare and tied up tightly in bed by Mengxi, she regretted her ’strange’ behavior that day...

--

On the other hand,

Compared to Mengxi’s astonishment, Wilt’s heart had been completely overtaken by shock. His dark green eyes trembled constantly, filled with disbelief. When he looked at the black-haired girl again, Wilt’s fighting spirit crumbled in an instant...

Ever since becoming an 8th-tire magician,

No one had ever dispelled his attacks easily like her!

’It’s impossible!!’

Wilt roared internally,

’There must be some mistake!’

Wilt’s heart couldn’t accept this fact, and his expression became somewhat hysterical.

’No!’

’It’s impossible!’

’she must have used some trick just now; she couldn’t have possibly withstood my attack like that! Even a peak eighth rank can’t do that! Could she be a Demon lord?!’

No, There must be some kind of one-time protective item on her that can withstand my attack!

’Let’s try again!’

Wilt wasn’t willing to give up and raised his left hand again.

Dark green magic power erupted and quickly gathered in the palm of his left hand, forming a magic circle made of dark green magical power. Clearly, Wilt intended to use the ’Black Death Thorn Spear’ once more.

However,

Although Wilt hadn’t given up, our Yumo had lost her patience.

After all, even if that kind of attack came dozens more times, it would be nothing more than a mere scratch.

In the next moment,

Under Wilt’s astonished gaze,

A crimson light flashed, and a black silhouette suddenly appeared in front of Wilt, causing him to sharply narrow his eyes and his heart to stop momentarily!

"You!!"

Without even having time to cry out in surprise, Wilt’s body trembled as he met the black-haired girl’s crimson eyes, swallowing the words he was about to say. Cold sweat dripped down his forehead, and the incantations he was chanting rapidly came to an abrupt halt due to the girl’s sudden appearance.

"Don’t bother trying, it’s a waste of time..."

Yumo said coldly.

Then, she slowly raised her hand and directly gripped the ’Black Death Thorn Spear’ in Wilt’s hand, which hadn’t yet fully formed.

With a slight squeeze from the girl’s fingers,

The energy spear, containing destructive magical power, once again disintegrated into countless magic particles under Wilt’s terrified gaze...

"How... How is this possible?!!"

’Using only her hand?!’

Just crushed the ’Black Death Thorn Spear’ like that?!

’Huh?!’

Before Wilt could fully comprehend the difficult-to-accept reality in front of him, a sharp pain came from his groin, his face twisted comically and ridiculously due to the intense pain...

"Boom!!!"

Accompanied by a loud noise and the ripple of a horrifying crimson power! Out of strength, Yumo kicked Wilt’s lower body, causing blood and a few pieces of internal organs to spew out of his mouth once more. Wilt’s dark green aura suddenly dissipated. The mutated limbs he had gained from taking the Blood Soul Pill also vanished with that kick...

Wilt returned to his original human form,

However,

Now he no longer possessed the dignity and temperament of the previous Divine Punishment sect leader,

He looked like a completely miserable wet dog...

He didn’t even have the chance to cover his groin and start groaning before the chains constructed of crimson power suddenly attacked, locking Wilt in mid-air, his body stretched into a large character shape.

At this moment,

Wilt completely lost the idea of fighting against her. Defeating the woman in front of him, or killing the Girl of Destiny under her protection, seemed almost impossible...

The only thing he could do, perhaps, was

To threaten her...

"You! You hag! You crazy woman! You stinky bitch! You motherf**king bitch! Protecting the Girl of Destiny like this, the Demon lord won’t let this go! Neither will the Child of Demon lord! You’ll get your retribution sooner or later!"

"..."

Hearing Wilt’s threats, Yumo frowned in annoyance.

"Retribution? Those are all insignificant matters. What I’m more concerned about is, who exactly is the Child of Demon lord you’re talking about?"

"The Child of Demon lord?"

"Yeah~"

Upon learning Yumo’s intentions, although Wilt felt fearful and helpless, he still forced himself to put on a disgusted expression and stared at the black-haired girl with hostile eyes.

"In your dreams! I’ll never betray the Child of Demon lord! I won’t tell you, a traitor, any information!"

"Oh? You’re so tough?"

"Heh! Even if you torture me to death, I won’t tell you!"

"..."

Hearing this, Yumo slowly raised her hand to her chin and fell into a brief silence. After pondering the surrounding environment, she gradually revealed a cold expression.

"Since you’re seeking death, I’ll grant your wish~"

Saying that,

Waves of crimson power of shadow slowly gathered at the girl’s fingertips.

At this moment, dozens of Divine Punishment Holy Sect members ’unexpectedly’ broke into the battlefield and launched an attack on Yumo, who was floating in mid-air! Various martial arts techniques and magic lights suddenly shone around Yumo.

However,

For such small fry attacks, Yumo just coldly glanced back at them.

These people,

Did they take advantage of the gap just now to come over?

"Boring..."

The girl’s eyes narrowed slightly, and blood-colored butterflies suddenly danced around her.

With the scattering of the ’Sleep Powder,’ these anxious Divine Punishment Sect members became dazed, and then directly fainted on the ground...

Nevertheless,

The appearance of these Divine Punishment Sect members was not without significance.

’Opportunity!’

Noticing Yumo’s gaze shifted to the back, Wilt hurriedly seized this rare opportunity. He channeled the remaining energy in his body and injected it into a specially designed magic ring on his index finger! The Spatial Bead inside was suddenly activated!

In the next moment,

With the ripple of spatial light,

Under Yumo’s astonished gaze, Wilt was immediately enveloped by a blue spatial light. After a flash of blue light, he disappeared right where he stood.

Clearly, like Prince Bernard from snowy empire, Wilt also used the rare Spatial scroll to escape...

"..."

However,

When Wilt’s breath completely dissipated, Yumo slowly withdrew the ’astonished’ expression on her face and returned to a blank state, even pretending to sigh with regret.

’Ah, he got away~’

The Spatial scroll is indeed a good thing, with its instant teleportation being quite convenient.

But for Yumo, disrupting spatial teleportation was not a difficult task.

The reason for deliberately ’focusing’ on dealing with other members of the sect was just to let Wilt escape. Judging from the sect leader’s tone and demeanor, it was unlikely that he would reveal any information about the Child of Demon lord. Since he was unwilling to speak, she would have to find out for herself~

After a faint smile,

Yumo thoughtfully looked down at the blue magic stone in her palm.

’Little Sebastian, I hope your tracking gadget doesn’t disappoint me~’

--

Meanwhile,

On the ruins not far away, a man dressed in tattered official clothes slowly crawled out from an underground shelter beneath the ruins. It was Pelochi, the official dispatched by the Snowy Night Empire royal family to the City of Wind...

At this moment,

This official was holding a device resembling a camera,

Pointing it at the black-haired girl suspended in mid-air,

’Is this the Bloody Butterfly?’

Hehe,

This is truly an unexpected piece of information, and I must send it to the Crown Prince as soon as possible...
