Chapter 854 (1/2)

The Yan Luo Dian men were all engrossed in defending against Zhai Xing Lou’s next wave of attack. They completely failed to notice that a stealthy figure had already sneaked its way to the side of the rhinoceros beast.

Crouching, Ji Fengyan slunk over to the rhinoceros beast. Approaching it, she could see even more clearly the terrible wounds on its body.

Fresh scars cut deep grooves into its pristine fur. Silver-white blood trickled from its wounds onto the nearby grass. All vegetation that came into contact with the blood of a rhinoceros beast were covered in a faint sheen.

The beast noticed the approach of a human bring but could only struggle to lift its head to look at Ji Fengyan. Those ice-blue pupils showed not an ounce of fear, but held a heartbreaking serenity.

“Don’t worry.” Ji Fengyan stroked the fur of the rhinoceros beast to comfort it. But the moment she touched it, she could feel a powerful spiritual energy surging wildly into her inner core.

That almost-devastating spiritual energy was so intense that Ji Fengyan nearly completely succumbed to it.

But…

Ji Fengyan discreetly bit down on the tip of her tongue, forcing herself to keep her senses amidst that rampant energy. She quickly withdrew an elixir from her Space Soul Jade and fed a few to the rhinoceros beast.

The animal seemed to realized that Ji Fengyan was trying to save it and did not hesitate or put up a struggle. It opened its mouth and used its tongue to take in the elixirs from her palm.

This movement left some of its saliva on Ji Fengyan’s hand.

A warmth spread throughout her hand as yet another wave of spiritual energy surged into Ji Fengyan.

She felt like crying. This was the first time Ji Fengyan felt so distressed by too much spiritual energy.
