Chapter 325: Such a life-for-a-life?

~7 min read 1,223 words

"Blood Elf, the 'Jiguang Freezing Source' is here; I keep my word! What about you?"

The Ice Queen Anastasia stared at Nie Yingying with burning eyes, her tone disdainful yet carrying a hint of anticipation.

"Axing!"

Nie Yingying was fearless, but first, there was one thing that needed to be confirmed.

"Hmm, I know, Sister Nie!"

Duanmu Xing approached the 'Jiguang Freezing Source'. A pure and biting coldness lingered around the fountain, and the spring water was as elegant and dreamy as an aurora; it was indeed a spirit spring.

Since coming out of the Longfang City-State, Duanmu Xing had been studying the magic ritual knowledge provided by the handsome Elf, all for this very moment.

"Wipe away the sigh of rust with moon moss,"

"Wash away the festering memories with melting snow!"

"Silver fern will suck up the rotten obsessions,"

"Let the migratory birds carry away the festering dream talk!"

The quiet and beautiful ballad was chanted in a special language. Under the illumination of the colorful light, Duanmu Xing at this moment seemed to have transformed into an elegant Elf singer!

The spring water flashing with aurora seemed to respond, 'ding-dong' echoing Duanmu Xing's ballad. The souls of everyone in the ice palace's small garden—Nie Yingying, Anastasia—seemed to have been comforted.

The air seemed to become gentle, and the originally cold spring water also turned from that bone-chilling coldness to a coolness that comforted the soul!

After singing only a short segment, Duanmu Xing stopped and looked at Nie Yingying behind her with surprise.

"Sister Nie, it's possible! This 'Jiguang Freezing Source' is a 'Source of Spirit Song'. Although it's not the natural spirit song of the 'Moonlight Woodland', if supplemented with Elf ballads that can comfort the soul, it can achieve the effect of treating soul injuries! And..."

Taking a small breath, Duanmu Xing's little face was slightly flushed with excitement.

"And because this spring eye naturally has aurora reflection, we even saved the process of collecting aurora fragments! I was worried before that the polar circle is now in a long polar day and aurora fragments are not easy to collect! Now everything is solved, Sister Nie, Brother Yao is saved!"

After hearing Duanmu Xing's words, Nie Yingying, who had already had a premonition, finally bloomed with a smile on her face, nodding repeatedly in response to Duanmu Xing's words.

It's just that they seemed to have forgotten the owner of this place. Anastasia sneered.

"Alright, I'm very happy that the 'Jiguang Freezing Source' is the spirit spring you are looking for! Then, Miss Nie, it's time for you to make a decision! Your life, or his life!"

"Of course, no problem at all! My life, I'll give it to you now!"

After speaking, the 【Shadow-Piercing Dagger】 suddenly appeared in Nie Yingying's hand. The pitch-black blade had no reflection and was pressed straight against her heart.

"I am a 【Blood Clan】, possessing excellent speed and physical recovery ability, but my fatal weaknesses are my brain and heart!"

Nie Yingying didn't avoid mentioning her weaknesses, and for the sake of insurance, a purple ghostly light also crawled onto the blade of the 【Shadow-Piercing Dagger】 in her hand. That was exactly the enchantment of her purple entry 【Poison-Touch of Pain】 on the weapon!

"I just hope Your Majesty the Queen can keep your promise!"

"Stop! What are you doing?"

The Ice Queen angrily stopped Nie Yingying's actions.

"You want to go back on your word?"

Nie Yingying's anger was only higher than Anastasia's.

Was this damn woman really going to break her promise? It seems she could only fight to the death!

"I want to go back on my word? I think it's you who wants to go back on your word! We agreed on a life for a life, but now you want to commit suicide?"

Eh?!

Eh eh eh?!!!

What... what does this mean?

Anastasia was furious. She didn't expect that the Blood Elf in front of her would really agree to trade her own life for that damn man's life.

"I agree to lend you the 'Jiguang Freezing Source' to heal his wounds, then your life is mine!" Anastasia pointed toward the main hall of the ice palace with an arrogant face. "Just like those Snow Elves, as long as you let me plant the 'Ice Soul Soul-Taking Curse' in your soul, you can use the 'Jiguang Freezing Source' as you please!"

Nie Yingying and the three of them widened their eyes. The scene of the Ice Witch Anastasia forcibly erasing the consciousness of the Snow Elves and controlling their actions was still vivid in their minds!

"Impossible! You want to cast a curse on my soul to control me forever? You're dreaming! I only agreed to trade a life for... damn it, that's not what I meant!"

This damn ice woman wants to control me forever. The curse cast on the soul can't be offset even by dying once, just like the injuries on that guy Xie Yaoyao's soul.

If it's a life-for-a-life like this, it has no value at all!

"Blood Elf, you would rather choose death than be used by me? Are you insulting me?"

Anastasia didn't know that Travelers could be resurrected after death; she just simply felt that Nie Yingying was too ungrateful. She had already agreed to spare her life, but she would rather choose death than stay in this ice palace and accompany her forever.

"Insult you? I'm going to kill you! You damn woman dare to play with me!"

We were originally here to treat soul injuries; this damn ice woman actually wants my soul. If she shouldn't die, who should!

"Sister Nie, bad! Xie Yaoyao's situation is not looking too good!"

At the moment of tension, Duanmu Xing discovered that the little mermaid Ariel beside her was pulling her arm. Following her gaze, she suddenly discovered that the star-shaped bubble array inside the ice layer outside Xie Yaoyao had turned into a galaxy-like light band, and Klein blue spots were even beginning to flash randomly within it.

And Duanmu Xing, as a 【Holy Light Favored One】, had already sensed through her 'Compassionate Heart' that Xie Yaoyao's situation was reaching its limit.

"Blood Elf, make your choice! Either choose to be my eternal slave to let that man live, or choose to let that man die and leave alive!" The Ice Queen, who also saw this scene, sneered: "Don't be lucky; you can't complete any magic ritual under my obstruction!"

"Ritual? Ritual your grandmother! Since you don't want us to perform the ritual, let's perish together. Why do you think we want to perform the ritual?"

Treating soul injuries with the 'Source of Spirit Song' is enough; 'Moon Shadow Weaving Mist' is just to cover up that guy Xie Yaoyao's aura. Since you, this damn ice woman, want to play, then I'll play with you!

Anyway, this is your home; if something ghost-like descends, don't think you'll have it good either!

"Lilisi~"

Nie Yingying grabbed Xie Yaoyao's ice sculpture beside her and threw it toward the 'Jiguang Freezing Source' in the center of the garden. At the same time, a blood-red long spear condensed in her hand and was thrown out fiercely, cleanly piercing the ice layer and stabbing Xie Yaoyao in mid-air through and through. ===== CHAPTER 326 =====
