Chapter 1169: What Kind of Monster Are You?

If Bai Wanxi was just confused earlier, she was utterly shocked now.

How could a bloodthirsty monster be so timid?

Bai Wanxi couldn’t figure it out, but her body reacted first.

Her whip spun in the air and charged straight at the monster. Her attack was ferocious as if she wanted to tear the monster apart.

The long whip tore through the air and struck the monster.

With a dull thud, a wound appeared on the monster’s back.

It was only a shallow wound penetrating the top layer of skin. No blood seeped out.

Bai Wanxi was slightly stunned upon seeing this.

How was this possible? The power of her attack was enough to cut an ordinary person in half. It shouldn’t only suffer such a superficial wound even if the monster’s physique was stronger than an ordinary person’s.

Bai Wanxi’s powerful whip attack had made such a tremendous smacking sound. It was enough to make one’s heart palpitate.

But not a trace of blood seeped out of the wound. It did not look like a body that a living person should have.

“Stop! What kind of monster are you?” Seeing that the monster was trying to escape, Bai Wanxi immediately leaped into the air and landed steadily in front of it. She narrowed her eyes and questioned it sharply.

The monster had no choice but to stop. It stood in front of Bai Wanxi in a daze and looked at her. It was unknown what it saw in her, but its eyes were especially dull.

The monster’s withered white hair covered its face. Bai Wanxi couldn’t see its face clearly, but she could clearly feel its gaze. Those deep eyes were filled with emptiness and sadness, making Bai Wanxi feel as if her heart was being pierced by needles. It hurt very, very much.

This time, Bai Wanxi’s voice trembled as she asked the monster again, “Who are you?”

The monster took a step back in fear. From the beginning to the end, it did not reveal any killing intent. It was helpless and confused. It wanted to keep a distance from Bai Wanxi and turned to leave.

“I’m sorry…” The monster said in an unpleasant and dry voice. Two streams of miserable tears flowed from its eyes. It trembled for a moment before trying to escape again.

Bai Wanxi’s heart quivered as she hurriedly stopped the monster. “No, don’t leave!”

Her heart ached as she looked at the monster. An extremely bad premonition arose in her heart as she looked at the monster. From its appearance, posture, and voice, it clearly didn’t look like Baili Yu at all.

However, a voice in Bai Wanxi’s mind told her that the person in front of her was him.

Otherwise, how could she explain her heart aching just by looking at it? It was as if her heart had been crushed by a merciless hand.

Bai Wanxi kept denying it in her heart, but tears flowed uncontrollably from her eyes. She sobbed and asked, “Ah Yu, is that you?”

These simple words were as heavy as a mountain to Bai Wanxi, suffocating her.

The monster’s body trembled as if it was spasming. It didn’t answer Bai Wanxi’s question and rushed out without looking back. Its speed was astonishing as if it had gone berserk.

“No! Ah Yu, don’t go!” Bai Wanxi’s heart felt like it was being twisted by a knife. She knew why he was avoiding her, but his avoidance felt like a thorn in her heart, the pain piercing through.
