Chapter 107: Hero Saves a Damsel in Distress!
The reason Asura Demon Sect captured the Red-Eyes Winged Lizard before was because they greatly coveted this [Mind Manipulation] divine ability.
Although it only works for someone weaker than the Red-Eyes Winged Lizard itself like the cultivators at the Foundation Establishment Stage or below and like the demonic beasts at the [Uncommon] grade or below.
However, you could imagine if the Asura Demon Sect managed to tame the Red-Eyes Winged Lizard and used its [Mind Manipulation] divine ability to brainwash the Foundation Establishment Stage from the other sects!
The Asura Demon Sect would probably only need a few months to grow into the strongest sects in the entire Lightwind Continent and started to conquer the other continent!
Their ambitious dream was really beautiful but unfortunately, the reality was harsh since the Red-Eyes Winged Lizard hated all humans very much that it rather die than helping them. So they have no other way other than confined it in the end and try every way to coerce it from soft to hard way but all their effort was futile.
That incident happened such a long time ago and all of their current generations almost forgot about the Red-Eyes Winged Lizard [Mind Manipulation] divine ability. Only Xiao Hei's grandfather probably still remembered about it now but it looks like he also already long given up about it.
Actually, the Red-Eyes Winged Lizard also never told anyone about its [Mind Manipulation] divine ability and it never used it in front of anyone before since it knew this ability would certainly inviting disaster and greed if anyone knew about it including its own Lizard Clan.
Until now, the Red-Eyes Winged Lizard still did not get it how the Asura Demon Sect's ancestor could know about its [Mind Manipulation] divine ability.
After such a long time, The Red-Eyes Winged Lizard finally used its [Mind Manipulation] divine ability again and it was to seal Tang Li Xue's memories about Xiao Hei before.
And now it doing the same thing again to itself but to seal its own memories about Tang Li Xue and it also completely erased the part where Tang Li Xue told it about how she could restore the gift she got from the Bi Fang including their experience at that volcano.
The Red-Eyes Winged Lizard was a very cautious beast. It was also always very calm and collected in any situation.
It would never allow itself including any of its close companions to walk into any dangerous situations without any proper plan.
For example when it was helping the Bi Fang against the human armies before and it managed to wipe the human armies in one clean move.
Of course, the incidents like the elemental spirit egg, Yaya and divine treasure rebirth was the exception since it never took Tang Li Xue's ability to cause trouble in its calculation.
It would be good if the elders from Lizard Clan only interrogate the Red-Eyes Winged Lizard orally later but it was afraid that they would use forceful way to force it to talk by using something like Soul Scour Technique, Hypnosis Technique, etc.
So that was why the Red-Eyes Winged Lizard decided to use its [Mind Manipulation] divine ability to erased all parts about Tang Li Xue's divine treasure along with any clues and all scenes related to it in its mind permanently.
The Red-Eyes Winged Lizard also put the very tight seal in its memories about Tang Li Xue so from now on the Red-Eyes Winged Lizard would forget everything about Tang Li Xue.
Of course, the Red-Eyes Winged Lizard also put the timer on the seal so it would unseal by itself after one year passed from today and if someone using some kind of spell that affecting its mind in this period of time, the seal would completely erasing all of its memories about Tang Li Xue permanently too.
'Sigh... I can only hope everything is not as bad as I thought it to be.' The Red-Eyes Winged Lizard sighed in its mind.
The Lizard Clan was different from Asura Demon Clan. The Lizard Clan has the least members compared to the other clan like Firebird Clan, Wolf Clan, or Foxes Homes so their relationship with each other was pretty solid.
Unfortunately, greed was like a very contagious disease and it could infect anyone no matter it was humans or beasts and no matter how strong they were.
Moreover, the Lizard Clan always called themselves the Dragon Clan descendants but they did not have any items to prove it so it made sense if they were going crazy now and started to use any means just to possessing this divine treasure from the true Dragon Clan.
.....
...
.
Tang Li Xue was looking at the fake dragon's silhouette that vanished after soaring onto the skies.
Tang Li Xue's mood right now was really gloomy and depressed.
In fact, she already started crying but the reasons were not completely like what the fake dragon was thinking before.
20% of her sadness and tears were because of her separation with the fake dragon.
40% of it was because she just lost a high level [Rare] grade mount and she was unable to stop it since she was too weak.
The last 40% of her tears were because of the distance she needs to travel to reach her destination.
She would only need at least two days to reach it by riding on the fake dragon but now she needs another week since she would travel there using her own feet now.
'Sigh... I am alone again... It is like I am returning to Moonlight Forest again... Oh well, let's hope that I will meet with many friends for my own species when I reach that Foxes Home!'
The skies turned darker when the sun started to set, Tang Li Xue looked around and found out that she was alone now in the middle of the unknown wilderness.
The loneliness and sadness flooded her heart and mind. She was already starting to miss the talkative mommy, the fake dragon and... and... uuhhh... eh?
'Again... I feel like I forgot someone important but who? Sigh... Let's continue my journey now so I can arrive there earlier!'
Tang Li Xue activated her [Ethereal Form] and her tiny silver figure vanished into thin air.
Tang Li Xue tried to use her newly upgraded skill from [Sprint], [Blink].
The result of this skill surpassed her expectation.
The moment Tang Li Xue activated her [Blink] skill, her transparent figure moved more than ten meters ahead in a blink of eyes.
'Woah! This [Blink] skill is so awesome!'
Of course, the current [Blink] skill also had its own pro and con compared to the previous [Sprint].
The [Blink] skill used far more stamina than [Sprint].
This [Blink] skill tailored more for battle while the previous [Sprint] skill tailored more for traveling far away.
This [Blink] skill was also harder to control so Tang Li Xue must train herself harder to be able to use it proficiently in the middle of the fierce battle.
Imagine if she intended to dodge a lethal attack using this [Blink] but accidentally ended up approaching it instead?!
Tang Li Xue decided to use the [Blink] repeatedly to travel so she could use it more proficiently.
When her stamina ran out, she decided to hide in the thick bushes and canceled her [Ethereal Form] then took some sleep for a while before continuing her journey again after her stamina fully recover.
When the fake dragon, touched her forehead before, it did not do it only to tease her but also to transfer the map of this area and where she must heading directly into her mind so she would never get lost on her way here.
Tang Li Xue did not stop her journey even in the middle of the night and she only took some short nap between it to recover her stamina in the middle of some thick bushes.
The next morning, Tang Li Xue felt really starving after running in her [Ethereal Form] for an entire night so she decided to hunt some prey for her breakfast.
[Species: Swift Rabbit]
[Grade: Uncommon]
[Level: 16]
[HP: 8,500/8,500]
Tang Li Xue's first prey was a pretty big white rabbit with a pair of black eyes and long ears. It was eating some fresh morning grasses now.
'Swift Rabbit? Hmmm... From its name, it should be quite quick but lack strength and defense. I must finish it in one clean attack or it would certainly run away later!'
Tang Li Xue sneaked closer to it using her [Ethereal Form].
She immediately deactivated her [Ethereal Form] when she was close enough and pounced to the Swift Rabbit's neck.
Tang Li Xue used her [Rip] skill and bit the Swift Rabbit's neck. Its blood kept pouring out to Tang Li Xue's mouth as it kept struggling for a few moments but Tang Li Xue refused to let it go until it breathes its last.
However, before Tang Li Xue could enjoy her prey...
SHAAAAA~~~!!!
A large metallic colored python jumped down from the nearby tree toward her with its mouth opened wide showing all of its sharp fangs!
[Species: Iron-Backed Python]
[Grade: Uncommon]
[Level: 21]
[HP: 17,800/17,800]
'Tsk... Tsk... Tsk... Did you really think that I, Tang Li Xue really did not realize that you were waiting there before?!'
Tang Li Xue used her [Blink] skill with the Swift Rabbit's neck still in its mouth, her silver tiny figure instantly vanished and reappeared ten meters in front of where she stood before.
The Iron-Backed Python would never give up that easily as it twisted its giant and long body on the mid-air.
Since it could not swallow Tang Li Xue and the Swift Rabbit whole anymore now, it decided to use its body as a giant whip to strike Tang Li Xue!
'Sigh... You are really persistent, aren't you?! Oh well, since you want to die so badly then I will fulfill your wish!'
Tang Li Xue put the Swift Rabbit on the ground and she wanted to use her [Blink] skill once again.
This time she planned to use her [Rip] and [Sharp Claw] skills to kill the Iron-Backed Python but before she could do that...
BAAAAAANG~~~!!!
A tiny silhouette kicked the Iron-Backed Python away on the mid-air.
The Iron-Backed Python's giant body flew more than ten meters away and its head smashed hard onto the other tree.
Tang Li Xue could not see her helper clearly since the scene before happened under the sun and she was still on the ground right now.
But after the tiny silhouette landed flipped its body and gracefully onto the ground, Tang Li Xue widened her eyes and dropped her jaw in shock, surprise, and disbelief when she saw her helper.
A tiny furry creature wore a red scarf and a straw hat stood gallantly in front of her.
