The morning after, Mu Ying was pecked awake by the bird-shaped essence she had summoned.
Before she even crawled out of her dwelling, the whole tree started shaking, and the bird-shaped essence rushed out, but it quickly vanished.
Mu Ying knew something was wrong, as the spells she had cast on herself the night before had all expired past their duration. She hurriedly applied the Tree Skin Skill and the Spider Walk Skill to herself so that she could stand steadily on the tree.
Then, she fetched her flying broom and rode it, leaning low over the broom and flying out at top speed.
Finally away from the ground, Mu Ying hovered in the air, rolling up her sleeve to reveal a bruise.
In that brief moment she had come out, she had been hit several times; the Tree Skin Skill had not completely shielded her, and if her arm looked like this, the rest of her body definitely wasn't faring any better.
