Chapter 198: Chains Broken, New Contract Mission

Those cold auras did not fly toward the Flaming Golden Holy Bird itself, but instead rushed toward the chains.

These chains became even more resilient the higher the temperature was.

However, as long as their temperature was temporarily lowered, there would be no problem.

Bai He landed on the ground and staggered back several steps.

Ye Shiyuan immediately supported him.

"Master, are you alright?"

"I am fine. This is the best opportunity now. Your Dawnmaker Divine Sword should be able to easily cut those chains apart."

Ye Shiyuan helped Bai He sit down, then picked up the Dawnmaker Divine Sword and walked forward.

Ma Hongjun squatted in front of Bai He.

"Little boy, I did not expect you to be quite strong, but at the same time you also seem quite weak. Just that little bit, and you could not hold on."

Bai He retorted in dissatisfaction, firmly refusing to admit he was weak.

"What do you know? Using profound ice power is already very exhausting. And this is against pure fire. If you are so capable, then you try it yourself."

Ma Hongjun obviously did not have that ability.

He rubbed his nose and then took out a fruit.

"For you."

He did indeed need to recover his strength.

This fruit was just right.

"Thank you."

He did not stand on ceremony and ate it directly.

"When you come to the Lingguang Sect next time to find me, I will treat you to many, many spiritual fruits."

"Thank you. I am actually quite lucky to have met you two right before I was about to leave here."

"Why do you say that?"

Ma Hongjun looked completely indifferent.

"Actually, I have always felt that the people here are quite stupid. Not a single one is smart. No matter how strong they are, they all get played around by me. It is not interesting at all. Although you, little boy, do not seem very smart either, you at least seem quite sincere."

Bai He could not tell whether Ma Hongjun was praising him or insulting him.

But just as Feng Wan had expected, Ye Shiyuan easily cut apart those chains.

Using his power, he shattered even the parts of the chains that had already grown into the wings of the Flaming Golden Holy Bird.

The Flaming Golden Holy Bird regained its freedom in an instant, but its wings were still heavily injured, bloody and horrifying to look at, and it was completely unable to fly.

The Flaming Golden Holy Bird lay on the ground, barely breathing and extremely weak.

Bai He immediately stood up and ran toward Ye Shiyuan.

"Shiyuan, it is injured."

"Right now it is in this condition. Probably anyone could bully it. I plan to take it to heal first. Master, what do you think?"

Bai He casually nodded.

"Sure. I brought some medicine. It should help its injuries. You can take it and feed it."

In truth, Bai He simply did not dare to get too close to it.

He was afraid of being bitten.

In this state, if it suddenly bit him...

Just imagining the consequences was already miserable enough.

A divine beast with intelligence, although still somewhat wary of Ye Shiyuan and the others, also understood that they were the ones who had saved it.

Even when Ye Shiyuan placed it into the crystal orb, it did not resist at all.

Bai He let out a sigh of relief.

Good, good, everything was resolved like this.

In the original story, Ye Shiyuan had nearly been severely injured here while trying to save the Flaming Golden Holy Bird.

The bird had gone out of control and injured him, and he was also backlashed by his own power.

He had to recover for a long time before he healed.

Now, because of him, everything had been resolved.

"How is it, Host? I told you, you and Ye Shiyuan are naturally meant to be together."

Mo Zhu always appeared at times like this.

Bai He suspected it was trying to brainwash hik.

Bai He did not respond, but Mo Zhu quickly spoke again.

"Host, there is a new mission. You need to obtain a spirit beast here, at top grade or divine beast level. Time limit is one month."

What kind of thing was this?

He had originally been happy, thinking he could finally leave this place, but suddenly receiving a mission made Bai He feel completely off.

Bai He walked along the path with a calm expression, but his mood was clearly not right.

If Ye Shiyuan had not been holding his hand, he did not even know where he would have wandered off to.

"Master, what is wrong?"

Bai He was actually very embarrassed to say it, but he felt he had no choice but to speak.

So, he forced himself and said, "Shiyuan, you all have spirit beasts. I want one too."

"You also want one? But you are not from here. What do you need a spirit beast for? The Lingguang Sect does not even have spirit beasts."

"I have already come all the way here. What is wrong with casually finding a spirit beast? The Lingguang Sect does not have spirit beasts, and I feel embarrassed asking my senior brothers and senior sisters to accompany me to find one."

"Then you are not embarrassed to trouble my Brother Ye."

Bai He glared at Ma Hongjun.

What kind of talk was that?

Ye Shiyuan was his boyfriend.

What was wrong with troubling his own boyfriend?

What did it have to do with him?

He really talked too much.

"Master, if you like it, then giving you the Flaming Golden Holy Bird would not be a problem. But it is not suitable for you."

"You even want to give away a divine beast. You really are willing to give up anything."

Bai He let out two soft hums.

Ye Shiyuan held Bai He’s hand and looked around.

"There is still time. Master, I will help you find a spirit beast."

Bai He smiled.

"Mm, alright."
