Chapter 85: Great Northern Spiritual Forest (3)
"Young Master!" She shouted in shock as she saw him half unconscious on the ground, but as she did this, her spiritual energy fluctuated, and the surrounding spiritual energy of both emperors managed to completely break through her spiritual energy shield, exploding it and hitting her hard.
"AHHHHH!" screamed, but luckily, her Emperor Bear was behind her strengthening her body, which prevented the blow from being too hard, and since was holding her so she wouldn't fly away, she avoided a bigger blow.
Still this time, she could not let herself be hit again, so she looked straight ahead and filled her body with spiritual energy.
Just at that moment, she lifted her right leg, and the Emperor Bear behind her did exactly the same, and then they both brought it down hard.
"Combined ability, Emperor Bear Stomp!" She shouted just then, and a small tremor occurred in the area as a huge stone wall rose from the ground in front of her, which served as a shield against the onslaught of the spiritual energies of the two beasts fighting in front.
Just as she screamed, brought Tang Yin to himself again, and he was a little startled, but seeing that she was all right, he sighed in relief.
"Young Master, it's okay!" she said with a smile as she turned to look at him, but was stunned again when she stared at him.
Tang Yin, at this moment, had a lot of small wounds on his body all over, and his mask had been torn. The bandages had long since left his face from the impacts, so his beautiful but wounded face was in full view of Xie Meiyu.
His long blue hair was messy from the impacts, and the skin on his face was a bit dirty, but both wounds were still intact.
Despite the dirt all over his face, where both scars were, there wasn't a speck of dirt, so they were very visible to Xie Meiyu.
In addition, one of them was bleeding a little.
Tang Yin was unaware of this, so he stood up a little dizzily and staggered to the side.
Xie Meiyu then quickly grabbed him.
"Young Master, are you okay?" She asked with a bit of urgency and then quickly pulled out a handkerchief from her storage bag.
He smiled and nodded.
"I'm sorry, I didn't expect to find two emperors this time." He replied, and she shook her head and grabbed her handkerchief to wipe his face.
Something Tang Yin found strange and soon had a bad feeling, so when she was wiping his face, Tang Yin brought his hand to his face and felt...
'Shit, again...' He thought when he noticed that his mask had broken and cursed in his mind...
Still, this time, he didn't pull out another mask to put on.
'Fuck it all, I'll wear it when I'm not in a fight.' He thought angrily and looked at Xie Meiyu as he grabbed the handkerchief that she held in her hand, to wipe himself.
"I'm sorry, Miss Xie. I'll do it myself." He said with a smile and then looked straight ahead.
"Seeing that you didn't run away, did the Monkey set us as enemies?" He asked as he sent the conversation back to the main focus.
But just before she answered him, someone else did.

Tang Yin was a little surprised when he looked at the system's new mission and frowned.
'It managed to put a small tracking trace on us in such a short time? He's capable...' Tang Yin thought, but seeing that the system could help him block the spiritual energy that could kill him, he started to think of different odds of winning.
Just then, Xie Meiyu nodded at him.
"Yes, it put an imprint on me that I can't erase even with my alchemical fire. It must be to track us. I didn't think we'd attract attention." She replied with a small sigh and watched Tang Yin walk over to the corner of the small wall she had erected and looked at the fight on the other side.
"Do you have any escape plans, young master?" She asked, and Tang Yin frowned a little.
"Escape is really difficult or maybe impossible. That guy is already almost about to kill the Emperor Bear." Tang Yin said and then looked all over the ground and came up with something, then looked at Xie Meiyu.
"Miss Xie, do you have any forbidden technique or one powerful enough that can kill a wounded and distracted Emperor in one blow?" Tang Yin asked, surprising Xie Meiyu.
"Are we going to fight him?" she asked in astonishment, and Tang Yin nodded firmly at her.
She noticed the determination in Tang Yin's eyes, so she said nothing more and nodded.
"I have a killer technique, but I need a full minute to activate it." She replied, and Tang Yin nodded back.
"Of what attribute?" he asked.
"Of blood." She replied, and Tang Yin then nodded again, this time with a smile.
"That one will work, let's make it so." Tang Yin replied with a smile and then told her his plan...
This plan left her stunned.
"Young Master, are you really sane? It's impossible for you to withstand such surges of spiritual energy!" She said in astonishment, but Tang Yin was not worried.
"Don't worry, I have a way to resist them. Just focus on your part of the plan and don't worry about me. You must assassinate him in one blow. It's not just about me, doesn't a Spirit Grade Fire catch your eye?" Tang Yin asked with a smile, and she frowned.
She had heard that part of the plan. If they killed the Monkey, they could take away his Icy Bestial Fire, one of the only Fires that had dual attributes and was immensely good for alchemists, but...
'Is it a Spirit Grade level Fire? Is there something I'm not seeing?' she thought doubtfully.
Certainly, she could sense that the Beast Fire in front of her was not as powerful as a Spirit Grade...
After all, there are very few such powerful fires on this continent.
But...
She was certainly interested in that fire.
So, after making up her mind, she looked at Tang Yin.
"Are you sure you can handle it?" She asked.
Even though she wanted it, she wasn't going to risk Tang Yin's life just for the sake of it.
This was something Tang Yin looked favorably upon and nodded to her.
She then nodded back.
"Let's do it then." She said firmly, and Tang Yin smiled at her.
"Let's do it, I'll go distract the Monkey Emperor. As long as the Bear is alive, I assure you I can endure more than a minute." Tang Yin replied and then turned around and ran out of that place.
Although Xie Meiyu was worried, she could only nod and wait for Tang Yin to tell the truth, so she started to activate her killing technique...
