"Haha, maybe I really can become the ultimate fisherman," Qi Bei thought with some malicious intent. After all, using him as bait would surely come at a cost.
Time passed minute by minute, and the last ray of sunlight disappeared from the horizon, leaving the night to settle in the Undead Mountain Range. At night, the Undead Mountain Range could truly be described as hell on earth.
In Qi Bei's line of sight, several zombies and skeletons were already walking slowly toward him, and soon they would detect the presence of Yao Rao.
Yao Rao obviously realized the danger as well. She stretched out her left hand, and a…heart appeared in her white palm. Yes, it was a heart, and the blue luster on it made it look like it was a polished crystal. What was incredible was that this heart was still beating, and even just by looking at it, one could feel the tremendous power contained in each beat.
Yao Rao pointed a drop of blood at the blue crystal heart and then inserted her magic wand into the ground with her right hand, chanting even more cryptic and obscure magic spells from her mouth.
Suddenly, the blood light of the magic array began to surge like boiling magma, and then it enveloped the ghost layer by layer in circles. However, Qi Bei, who was in the middle of the array, miraculously did not suffer any harm.
The ghost once again let out a sharp scream, and its translucent body suddenly expanded violently, and then slowly shrank back like a deflated balloon.
Outside the magic array, Yao Rao's face suddenly instantly pale as paper, spitting out three consecutive mouthfuls of blood before collapsing to the ground.
The ghost disappeared into the magic array, replaced by a half-gold and half-crystal Undead Bead.
In this showdown, it seemed that Yao Rao had emerged as the final winner.
Qi Bei still didn't dare to act rashly. He realized that this seductive beauty was probably not the high-level mage he had imagined, but she was still a powerful earth-level or maybe even king-level mage. With the power of this kind of mage, even if they only had a trace of magic power left, it could easily kill him.
At this moment, more than ten undead creatures in the distance had already noticed the presence of the Yao Rao and rushed toward her.
Just then, two silver flames suddenly streaked across the night sky.
As they landed, Qi Bei realized that this was not just any silver flame, but the silver light flashing in the eye sockets of a skeleton.
"Silver armor skeleton, advanced undead!" Qi Bei felt a chill in his heart. If Yao Rao died, he wouldn't be able to escape either.
A hint of coldness flickered in Yao Rao's icy blue eyes. At the moment that the silver armored skeleton pounced towards her, the tear-shaped pendant on her chest suddenly shattered and countless wind blades were unleashed, covering the sky and earth.
Qi Bei could only watch as the silver armored skeleton was instantly crushed to pieces by the wind blades, leaving nothing behind.
'Gulp.'
Qi Bei swallowed hard. If he had made a move just now, his fate would have been even more tragic than that of the silver armor skeleton.
Yao Rao glanced at Qi Bei with a hint of apology in her eyes, and then collapsed to the ground, falling unconscious.
As Yao Rao fell, the magic circle's light dissipated. Qi Bei squatted down and picked up the half-gold, half-crystal Undead Bead that had fallen to the ground.
'This fairy had gone to great lengths to obtain this Undead Bead', Qi Bei thought looking carefully at the highest-level Undead Bead he had seen up until now.
The huge commotion caused by the wind blades had already attracted the attention of the monstrosities in the surrounding mountains. It wouldn't be long before many undead creatures rushed over.
Qi Bei put the Undead Bead into his close-fitting cloth bag, and turned around to leave, but found that he couldn't move his feet. The look of apology in Yao Rao's eyes before she collapsed kept appearing in his mind, and the Dragon Seal on his left palm kept flashing.
"Ah, I'm still too kind. Although this fairy used me as bait, she didn't really intend to kill me. Oh well, I'll save you this time, but the price you'll have to pay won't be that simple." Qi Bei muttered to himself. He carried Yao Rao on his back and ran away with nimble movements.
Qi Bei had survived in the undead mountains for a full eight months, and his skill in fleeing for his life was not to be underestimated. Soon, he found a cave to settle down in.
He laid Yao Rao down and sat cross-legged beside her, staring at the Dragon Seal on his left palm that was now shimmering with golden light.
In fact, the reason why he had secretly hidden his left hand behind his back before was because the Dragon Seal on his left palm had reacted to the search for the extreme Yin energy.
With a seductive and exquisite figure, Yao Rao possessed an extreme Yin physique. Therefore, when she used mental magic to hypnotize him, he played a trick and planted a Dragon Mark in her soul.
"It's cold, so cold!" Yao Rao suddenly muttered.
Qi Bei touched her hand, but the temperature of her skin made him shiver. 'Why is it so cold?'
Perhaps it was because Qi Bei's big hands were very warm. In her unconscious state, Yao Rao instinctively leaned towards the source of warmth, resting her head on Qi Bei's legs and tightly holding onto his waist.
Qi Bei was freezing, 'damn it, this is even colder than an ice cube.'
His internal energy automatically accelerated without Qi Bei having to urge it. Fortunately, the Divine Dragon Art he practiced was a supreme Yang technique, otherwise, he would probably have frozen to death with this woman.
Feeling the warmth she had not felt in a long time, Yao Rao became more active, seeming to want the warmth to completely envelop her.
"A good person always goes the extra mile, sacrificing oneself for the greater good, I am truly a selfless gentleman." Qi Bei simply lay down, fully embracing Yao Rao.
Holding Yao Rao was like holding a thousand-year-old block of ice that never melted. Qi Bei did not have any dirty thoughts. His entire body and mind were focused on revolving his internal energy according to the Divine Dragon Art.
As the stars became dim and the night retreated, the sun once again appeared in the sky.
Yao Rao woke up drowsily, feeling enveloped by warmth all over her body. It was so comfortable that she didn't want to move.
She remembered that she had killed the ghost with the energy of the Sky Heart, but she had reached her limit. Then, a silver-armored skeleton attacked her, forcing her to use the protective tear pendant left by her master, which contained sealed wind magic of the highest quality.
Afterward, she fell unconscious, and the cold poison that had not erupted in her body for ten years suddenly erupted. According to reason, without her master by her side, she would have died, and the boy she had restricted with her wind magic must have been torn to pieces by the undead.
Thinking of that boy, Yao Rao suddenly shivered, and her drowsy mind instantly became clear.
'Boom, boom, boom…' Through a bare chest, she heard a very steady heartbeat, and her nose was filled with a strange male scent. Obviously, this was a man's embrace.
Yao Rao did not panic, she had noticed her clothes were still on…
No, what was that hard thing pressing between her legs? And there was a big hand on her buttocks.
Yao Rao suddenly opened her eyes and wanted to use magic to shatter this man who had desecrated her into pieces.
However, although the incantation flashed through her mind, her body was empty of magic power.
Her heart sank. The cold poison would last for ten days, and during these ten days, she would lose all of her magic power.
In other words, she would be completely powerless for these ten days.
