Chapter 426: 238 Accept or Not? (Third Update)

The Red Mastiff’s eyes were locked onto the Fire Element Elemental Crystal in Fang Yuxin’s hands. After the layer covering the energy fluctuations on the surface had been removed, the energy escaping from the Elemental Crystal was fatally attractive to superpower users, mutated creatures, and zombies alike.

This Red Mastiff was no exception. Its eyes went wide, and without much hesitation, it accepted the Blood Pearl from Qu Qianhe. As soon as it did, Qu Qianhe performed a complex hand gesture. After completing the gesture, it transformed into a spirit light and entered the Red Mastiff’s forehead.

The Red Mastiff didn’t try to dodge and obediently accepted it.

"From now on, you will be called Hong Lie."

With this, the master-servant bonding ceremony was completed.

Qu Qianhe could feel Hong Lie’s growing desire for the Fire Element Elemental Crystal with each passing moment. She took the Elemental Crystal from Fang Yuxin’s hands and threw it directly to him.

This time, the Red Mastiff didn’t dodge but instead opened its mouth to swallow the Fire Element Elemental Crystal. Once swallowed, it began to sit and digest the energy inside.

Qu Qianhe unleashed a flame that melted the ferocious icicles and the solid ice wall, then she stayed by Hong Lie’s side, waiting for it to absorb the Elemental Crystal and complete its evolution.

Not wanting to leave, Fang Jintang also stayed by her side. Thinking about what had happened before, he felt uneasy and transmitted a message to her, "Qianhe, are you sure the bonding has been successful? Could it still harm you?"

Qu Qianhe thought about the intentions that had passed from Hong Lie during the bonding and shook her head, "Don’t worry, it just felt the Fire Element energy from me and was extremely eager, which is why it attacked me. Now that the bonding is successful, it will not attack me anymore."

Fang Jintang frowned, still having doubts but not pushing further. Instead, he said, "It must be hungry, once it wakes up, let’s give it something to eat."

Qu Qianhe nodded; she was thinking the same.

Absorbing the Elemental Crystal and evolving required time. After hesitating for a moment, Fang Yuxin decided to leave Angela behind to guard Qu Qianhe and Fang Jintang, in case of any mishap. Meanwhile, she specifically left some Crystal Cores for Angela to swallow and recover its strength.

After these arrangements, she and Fang Yuyang left the place to continue collecting usable supplies. Chen Qiao’s group of six and Bai Ye’s group of five did the same. Before leaving, Bai Ye gave Fang Yuxin a lingering look but, hesitating afterward, eventually did not voice his uncertainties.

Fang Yuyang noticed this. After they split up, he spoke to Fang Yuxin, "Bai Ye must have noticed that our Crystal Cores are purified. He might come to ask you about it. Xinxin, what are your plans?"

Fang Yuxin looked at Fang Yuyang in surprise, slightly impressed that he had noticed too. Fang Yuyang felt a bit displeased under her gaze and said, "Xinxin, do you think I’m useless?"

Fang Yuxin laughed and denied, "Not at all! I’m just surprised that you observe so minutely! Nothing escapes your eyes; it’s really amazing!"

Fang Yuyang was amused by her praise, but remembering the serious matter, his expression became stern again as he continued, "Xinxin, you haven’t answered me yet. What are you thinking? If Bai Ye asks you, how are you going to reply?"

Instead of answering directly, Fang Yuxin asked, "Brother, what kind of person do you think Bai Ye is?"

Xinxin, what does that have to do with anything? Fang Yuyang, feeling protective, stared at her, fearing she might have feelings for Bai Ye. After hesitating, he asked, "Xinxin, you’re not planning to tell him the truth, are you?"

Realizing Fang Yuyang’s concern, Fang Yuxin smiled helplessly and said, "Brother! What are you thinking!"

Fang Yuyang’s expression soured, "Then just tell me what you are planning!"

Fang Yuxin sighed. To keep Fang Yuyang from overthinking, she candidly replied, "He knows I have a juice that can purify the Zombie Virus, right? Just give it to him. Besides, don’t forget, he received the inheritance of the Dragon Scale Sword, which makes him somewhat an ally, and after all the help he has received from me, and considering his relationship with Bai Qianqian, he definitely won’t become my enemy. We are partners now, giving him the spiritual spring water isn’t a big deal. And don’t forget about Chen Qiao and his group; they’ve been with us all along, it wouldn’t be right to withhold the spiritual spring water from them either."
