Chapter 245 Extra - I've Become Stronger (1/2)

In the space.

The light screen that Yan Yu summoned displayed the intense action unfolding outside.

Seeing that Daju was corroded by venom to protect Xiaobai, and then seeing Xiaobai's arcane power, Ruan Tang felt short of breath and her limbs were ice cold.

Ruan Tang's mind was in complete chaos. She couldn't stay in the space any longer; she had to go out and save Xiao Bai.

"Yes, I have to go save Xiaobai—!" Ruan Tang muttered to herself, about to rush outside without regard for anything else.

Suddenly, her waist tightened, and a strong arm gripped her tightly, rendering her unable to move.

"Let me go! Yan Yu, let me go! Xiao Bai is going to die!"

Ruan Tang struggled desperately, her fingernails digging into Yan Yu's arm, drawing blood but she felt nothing.

Tears welled up, blurring her vision. All she could see was the orange figure on the ground, convulsing in agony within the light screen.

"Don't go." Yan Yu's voice was full of heartache, but also unusually serious.

"Tangtang, don't worry, they have to rely on their own strength to pass this trial."

Yan Yu looked at the anxious little girl in his arms, feeling both heartache and a little wronged. He knew that Xiao Bai had been by Ruan Tang's side for hundreds of years, but he was still a little jealous.

However, the reason Ruan Tang was not allowed to go out to rescue Xiao Bai was not because she was jealous.

The moment Xiaobai's eyes changed, Yan Yu noticed it. He felt that Xiaobai's bloodline should have been activated, so neither of them should go out to disturb it. Letting it get through this on its own was the best way to care for Xiaobai.

Ruan Tang couldn't hear anything; all she knew was that her little white dog was dying right in front of her!

Her strength to struggle gradually ran out, and she collapsed into Yan Yu's arms.

Her small fists pounded against his chest, but they were soft and powerless.

"Please... bring it back... please..."

Her pleas broke in her throat, leaving only desperate sobs.

Yan Yu didn't move, but simply held her tighter, pressing her trembling face against his chest, preventing her from seeing that bloody scene again.

Time seemed to stand still.

Until the killings and struggles in the outside world finally settled down.

He then released the little girl from his arms, who had been crying so hard she could no longer speak.

A thought crossed my mind.

The next second, the two little guys who had just crawled back from the brink of death in the pile of rocks appeared out of thin air at Ruan Tang's feet.

In the familiar space, the sweet, soft scent of the little master wafted over.

The two little ones' nerves, stretched to their limit, snapped with a "snap".

"Squeak..."

Little White let out a heart-wrenching whimper. It tried desperately to snuggle into Ruan Tang's arms, but with the slightest movement, the excruciating pain from exhaustion rendered it completely immobile.

Waaah... Master, the mouse is dying, the mouse has no strength, waaah... Little White's dark purple eyes were filled with tears.

The big orange cat next to it kept howling, and the wound on its back throbbed with pain with each howl.

Ruan Tang squatted down, tears falling even more fiercely than before, each hot tear hitting the ground and spreading into a small water stain. She picked up Xiao Bai and walked to Da Ju's side.

She reached out her hand, wanting to touch the big orange, but was afraid of hurting it.

That hand hung there in mid-air, trembling uncontrollably.

The sight of Daju covered in blood, coupled with its tired yet completely dependent gaze, pierced Ruan Tang's heart.

Yan Yu took out a first-aid kit and said, "Clean the wound first."

Yan Yu squatted down next to Da Ju and carefully rinsed the wound on Da Ju's back with hydrogen peroxide.

The charred, blackened flesh, burned by the venom, was washed away by the water, revealing the tender, red flesh underneath.
