Reborn Divine Doctor: The Abandoned Girl's Legend-Chapter 817 - 684: Survival Against All Odds, Forming an Alliance
"No, you can’t die yet. Do you really want to watch helplessly as the Earth Spirit and your people fall into the hands of those shameless beasts?" Ye Lingyue’s words pierced the heart of the Three-legged Birdman Queen like a sharp blade.
After suffering Chen Hongru’s betrayal, the Three-legged Birdman Queen had become indifferent to life and death.
If there was anything that kept her clinging to life, it was her concern for her people.
The Three-legged Birdmen are an ancient clan of fierce beasts.
They are one of the few demon clans on the Qing Province Continent, and among the minorities that can obtain the Heaven and Earth Spirit.
Their Demon Cores are very pure, which is why over the years, the Three-legged Birdmen Tribe has been constantly hunted by other fierce beasts.
If it weren’t for the protection of the Earth Spirit, the Queen would not have been able to establish the palace on the cliff, using natural defenses to ward off many attacks from fierce beasts. Without it, they would probably have been exterminated by now.
There are only a few thousand Three-legged Birdmen in the entire Rift Valley Sand River.
Today, with the Earth Spirit seized by Chen Hongru, the entire cliffside palace will soon collapse.
Thinking of these, the hope in the heart of the Three-legged Birdman Queen, which was close to extinguishing like a dying lamp, was reignited.
"Why do you want to help me?" the Queen’s words were still full of disbelief.
Beasts naturally harbor hostility towards humans.
For thousands of years, the relationship between humans and fierce beasts has been one of life and death.
One Chen Hongru has already caused the Three-legged Birdman Queen to stumble once.
"I won’t help you for nothing. I’ll tell you the truth; my purpose is the same as his. I want the Earth Spirit. But I disdain using force to bully an opponent who’s near death. I’ll help you take back the Earth Spirit, then I want you to gift it to me," Ye Lingyue stated bluntly.
The Five Elements Spirit is greatly beneficial for an Alchemist’s cultivation.
Although Ye Lingyue is already a Nine Rank Alchemist and possesses the Wood, Water, and Fire Spirits among the Five Elements, obtaining the Earth Spirit would undoubtedly take her cultivation to the next level.
The Three-legged Birdman Queen burst out laughing.
She suddenly found that she liked this young girl from the Human Clan quite a lot.
Anyone who can admit they are not a good person but still manage to be likable must be unique in this world; perhaps there is only one Ye Lingyue.
"Cough, cough. As you wish, as long as you can retrieve the Earth Spirit, I am willing to give up everything." The Queen couldn’t laugh much before she started coughing again, feeling a sweet, fishy taste in her throat. She knew she wouldn’t last long. She was also curious to see how Ye Lingyue, along with Feng Xun, would recover the Earth Spirit. They could defend, but when faced with the strength and numbers of the Beauty Snake Woman and Chen Hongru, they were not opponents.
"Feng Xun, can you hold on for another hour?" After receiving a positive reply from Feng Xun, Ye Lingyue hurriedly made the Three-legged Birdman Queen sit down.
She placed her palm upon the heavily scarred body of the Three-legged Birdman Queen.
The white Cauldron Breath, like a warm soothing rainfall, was infused into the body of the Three-legged Birdman Queen.
That warmth turned into numerous tiny tendrils.
They sensitively moved around inside the Three-legged Birdman Queen’s shattered body, swiftly navigating through it.
Wherever they reached, a small portion of the Cauldron Breath would stay to temporarily repair the injured areas of the Three-legged Birdman Queen.
But that was only temporary; the poison from the Demon Flower Moonflower was too formidable, combined with the earlier attack from Chen Hongru, the body of the Three-legged Birdman Queen was indeed at the end of its strength.
Merely relying on Cauldron Breath was impossible to completely cure her, unless there was some against-the-heaven Divine Medicine, but unfortunately, Ye Lingyue did not have such spiritual medicine at her side right then.
"I can temporarily heal your body, and I also have a Nine Revolutions Soul Reviving Pill here, which can briefly restore your cultivation level to its original standard. But all this will be as fleeting as a morning glory, at most lasting the time of a cup of tea, after which the medicine’s effect will dissipate, and you will..." Ye Lingyue was treating the Three-legged Birdman Queen while explaining to her.
The Queen nodded heavily.
About half an hour later.
"Damn it, what did that woman do?"
Still absorbing the Earth Spirit, Chen Hongru suddenly felt something was wrong with the Earth Spirit he controlled.
He looked up and saw not far away, the initially pale-faced and severely injured Three-legged Birdman Queen, all her various wounds were recovering.
Looking at this rate, she was going to recover soon.
As the Three-legged Birdman Queen was recuperating, the Earth Spirit, thinking its host had perished, seemed to sense something.
It began to struggle restlessly in Chen Hongru’s hands, making it difficult for him to absorb it further.
No, he must not allow Ye Lingyue to heal the Three-legged Birdman Queen.
He couldn’t let the duck at hand fly away.
Chen Hongru barked angrily.
"Shari, what are you waiting for? Order your tribe to kill them!"
"Hong Lang, the Beast Repelling Powder." Shari furrowed her eyebrows, afraid of angering her beloved, yet she dared not to move forward.
She didn’t know what kind of Beast Repelling Powder was used, even she felt her snake tail go weak when she smelled it.
"A beast is just a beast, a mere Beast Repelling Powder and you all cower, where is the Wind Demon Lute I gave you!" Chen Hongru scolded, disappointed.
Despite being a Fang Venerate Level Alchemist, he could still clearly distinguish the Array and the Beast Repelling Powder.
When Beauty Snake Shari heard this, she came to her senses and suddenly transformed, producing a pipa-shaped Spiritual Artifact in her hands.
It was a high-grade Earth Rank Spiritual Artifact previously refined by Chen Hongru and given to Shari.
Listening to Shari holding the pipa, her fingers played the strings dinging and danging.
As the pipa strings sounded, no music was heard, instead, small tornadoes began to rise.
The tornadoes were not weak; wherever they passed, even steep mountain stones were sliced flat as if cut by a knife.
The Beast Repelling Powder nearby the Array was completely blown away by Feng Xun.
Once the Beast Repelling Powder was cleared, the Beauty Snake Warriors charged towards Ye Lingyue and the other two with an overwhelming momentum.
At this moment, Ye Lingyue was at a critical part of her treatment of the Three-legged Birdman Queen, repairing the Dantian step.
She also noticed the perilous situation around her, but she couldn’t afford to be distracted momentarily.
Seeing this, Feng Xun noticed, beneath his sleeves, the twin Moonflower Kings were blooming vigorously, his distinctly jointed large hands with veins popping like earthworms, suddenly clenched into fists, his gaze turned cold as he strode in front of Ye Lingyue and the Three-legged Birdman Queen.
Just as Feng Xun was about to make a move, suddenly a clang like the sound of a golden ge echoed from the sky.
"Do not harm Sister Yue and Brother Feng!"
With a child-like voice, Long Baobao, along with a group of Three-legged Birdman Warriors, Little Zhiyo, and Little Wuya descended from the sky!
