Chapter 125: Finally Over
Gradually, her senses began to return as some of her Dantian was once again filled with small amount of Qi. She used the pitiful amount to clear her eyes of the dark blood and finally felt a little better.
She was still stinking a lot as if she had come after taking a bath in shit and she still couldn't move, but atleast she could see. That much was enough for now.
"Hah! So you survived? What kind of monster are you?"
A voice resounded beside her, something she didn't really expected. It was the familiar humourless voice of Bai Li and It was filled with weakness and was very low, showing his condition wasn't much better than her.
She felt someone trying to open her mouth and after getting a wisp of a pill's aroma, she knew what Bai Li was trying to do so she simply let the pill enter her mouth and sink inside her.
Her leftover Qi began to circulate around as the effects of the Pill began to show. The pain was still there but it was much better. She could feel her body getting healed slowly and also felt that she could move now.
She tried to move and felt the sudden assualt of pain, buy she still sat up and crawled backwards to use a rock to support herself. She then looked to the sides and found Bai Li sitting, leaning his back on a similar rock as her.
His condition wasn't much better and both of his hands were in the worst condition. One was fully charred and burnt, and the other hung loosely as if he had lost some sensation in it.
"I can still love this hand a little, but it isn't that big of an injury to be honest. A few days of rest along with some medicine and boom I'll be ready to fight a big rooster again. Sadly, I can't participate in tomorrow's match...well, if they happened in the first place."
Ying Yue smiled hearing his nonsense blabbering and chuckled.
"Well, it's our misfortune that the big rooster landed near that different big guy. We can't even roast it properly. I head Tier 4 Spiritual Creature's meat is very tasty."
"It definitely is. I only had it once in my life and I will never forget it."
Bai Li laughed and began to tell his story. They didn't talk much about anything and simply passed the time with utter nonsense.
"Oi! Oi! I thought you two would be dead but I guess you're alive."
They heard a voice as a gust of wind made the ash around them to scatter around. They both rolled their eyes as Bai Li said.
"Does Miss Lan hate us or something? I can understand if you hate the Seven Stars Sect but why me?"
Ning Xi cleared away the ash and smiled at the two of them. She still couldn't believe that the two of them had taken down the King of Aerial Spiritual Creatures without getting a limb or two cut.
In fact, after shifting the other participants outside, she had came back to interfere if things went south and they did. But she didn't interfere and saw how the two of them dealt with the mighty bird.
'Tsk! Tsk! What a monster I have as a Sister. She's a freak, well, who cares.
She's alive and that's all that matters.'
She had been worried a lot about Ying Yue and wanted to interfere in the battle but in the end, she didn't. And now that she saw them completely fine, her heart was at ease.
Ning Xi then looked at the battered Bai Li deeply. She smiled at him and said.
"You don't need to worry about my opinion. Do you want to heal here or after getting back?"
"I'll take whatever you're giving now. I Don't want to go back in such conditions."
Ning Xi nodded hearing his answer and took out two liquid containers from her storage ring. She then used her Qi to make the container hover in the air and made the two of them drink.
"It's not from the federation by the way. I'm just using my personal wealth to show how good you two fought. You can be proud, even I almost lost my arm when I fought a High-Stage Tier 4 Spiritual Creature back when I was in Foundation Realm. You two are strong."
Ying Yue had the urge to throw the ash at Ning Xi for her boasting but she held her hand because she knew it was a truth. Ning Xi was a battle genius and a pure maniac.
There had been close to none who could match her battle prowess in the whole Empire. Ying Yue didn't wish to compare a a assassin like her to someone like Ning Xi.
She just drank the liquid and soon felt all of her body healing. In a few seconds, she was back in a condition where she could move around freely. Although she still wouldn't be able to battle without proper rest, this was more than enough.
Ying Yue stood up and looked at herself, feeling a pang of disgust in her heart as she saw the whole dark blood smeared in her.
'Well, atleast this dark blood isn't of that tree otherwise I would be in much bigger problems.'
"You two stink a lot so keep some distance from me. Oh yeah, the round is over and now you two can come back to the coliseum. Also, wanna hear a good news?"
Ning Xi smiled widely as she caught the two of them in her Qi and shot at the barrier which was crumbling down.
"The Good News is that the Qualifiers are also over."
