A succubus devours its master? She then raises a twelve-winged angel!

Chapter 277 Departure, Snow Country!
Gu Xing's gaze sharpened—

Lilith's level has dropped back to King Tier 5, and her attributes have also dropped significantly to around 10,000 points.

He frowned and quickly scanned the other beasts, including Liuli and Vera, and found that they were all in the same state of weakness.

Lilith seemed to see through his confusion and explained softly:

"This is a side effect of forcibly using divine runes. For a long time to come, your beasts will likely remain in this weakened state."

Gu Xing was taken aback upon hearing this.

He himself also used the divine runes, but did not experience a similar situation.

But when his gaze fell upon the World Tree leaf floating in the Beast Taming Space, he immediately understood.

The World Tree leaves not only kept his body from collapsing during the battle, but also cleared away any negative effects from his body.

"Lilith, is there any way to help them recover as quickly as possible?"

He now shoulders too many responsibilities, and the third divine realm will open at any time, so he dares not stagnate in the slightest.

If his main beasts continue to weaken, his situation will be extremely dangerous.

We must restore our combat strength as soon as possible.

Lilith pondered for a moment and then gave her answer:
"Snow country, snow girl."

When her strength first declined due to the backlash of the divine runes, it was the Snow Maiden who healed her.

However, by then she was already at the Totem level, and the Snow Woman was powerless to fully restore her.

However, since Liuli and the others are not yet at a high level, Yuki-onna is fully capable of helping them recover.

Upon hearing the names "Snow Country" and "Snow Woman" again, Gu Xing was taken aback.

He had not forgotten—Ying Bing was sent to the Snow Country by Lilith.

To this day, he still does not know whether Ying Bing has recovered.

And now, Lilith has brought up the Snow Country once again.

"Can the Snow Woman...heal Ruri and Vera?"

Lilith nodded.

However, she immediately remembered the rule established by the Snow Woman:

She has always disliked humans, although Lilith herself is not sure why.

But this time... out of consideration for her own feelings, Xue Nu shouldn't make things difficult for Gu Xing, right?
After hesitating for a moment, Lilith ultimately decided not to mention that the Snow Woman did not welcome humans.

Upon seeing Lilith's affirmative response, Gu Xing instantly made up his mind.

Heading to the snow country.

Whether it was to check on Ying Bing's recovery or to heal the injuries of Liuli, Vera, and the other beasts—

He has to go on this trip.

Having thought this through, Gu Xing had already made a decision in his heart.

Despite his worries, seeing that the condition of the beasts was gradually stabilizing, Gu Xing withdrew his mental energy from the beast-taming space.

He came before Ruka. With the help of the Seraphim, Ruka's injuries had temporarily stabilized.

When she saw Gu Xing approaching, she forced a smile.

Seeing Liu Xia's weak yet still spirited appearance, Gu Xing felt heavy-hearted but helpless.

He has no healing abilities, nor does he have a contracted healing beast.

While "Heavenly Grace" can dispel negative status effects, it cannot heal injuries.

After a moment's hesitation, Gu Xing finally spoke up to offer his advice:
"Have you considered leading the angel race to temporarily evacuate from this place?"

His gaze swept across the entire battlefield—

The angels' former homeland has been reduced to ruins, and the top combatants among the war angels have been almost entirely wiped out, with most of the survivors also suffering serious injuries.

The Angel race's fighting strength is now less than one-tenth of what it used to be!

If we remain here, we face the constant threat of an attack from the demons...

It will be difficult to withstand!
However, Ryūka slowly shook her head, rejecting his suggestion:
"Gu Xing, the Angel race has guarded this place for generations, we cannot leave."

“You should know that the Ghost Clan has its own forbidden lands, and we, the Angel Clan—” “also bear the mission of guarding those forbidden lands.”

"We must stay and continue to defend this place."

Upon hearing this reason, Gu Xing opened his mouth, but didn't know how to persuade him further.

Seeing his hesitation, Ryuka continued softly:
"Don't worry about us. Although the angel race's fighting strength has been greatly reduced, but..."

"We still have the ability to protect ourselves."

"Even if the demons attack again, even if we can't hold out, we still have a way out."

"As long as you take good care of Liuli and let her grow up safely, our angel clan will be satisfied."

Upon hearing these words, Gu Xing gave up on trying to dissuade Liu Xia any further.

He then turned his gaze to the Lava Clan beside him.

In the previous battle at the monarch level, the strength displayed by this group of lava people far exceeded their level—

Although he is only at the peak of the monarch level, his true combat strength is already close to that of the totem level.

After a moment's thought, Gu Xing decided to let the Lava Clan stay behind to assist the Angel Clan in guarding this place.

These simple and passionate little fire people did not hesitate at all when Gu Xing made his arrangements, and immediately and solemnly agreed.

Meanwhile, at the summit of the snow country.

The Snow Woman was unaware that Lilith had already set her sights on her.

At this moment, she is leisurely lying on her side on the ice bed, enjoying a peaceful and pleasant time.

Ying Bing stood quietly beside her, reading stories from the human world to the Snow Woman with a hint of helplessness.

After a segment ended, Ying Bing asked softly again:

"Lady Yuki-onna, when will I be able to leave this place?"

Upon hearing this, the Snow Woman lazily crossed her legs and slowly said:
"I'm your savior. Since I saved your life, you should stay here obediently."

She had no intention of letting Ying Bing leave.

Lilith has fallen in love with that human...

How could she possibly send this "competitor" back?
Moreover, she discovered that this human had actually formed a contract with the Frost Phoenix—

Her attributes perfectly match hers.

Once this ice phoenix grows up, it may very well become another powerful guardian under her command.

Therefore, it was even less likely that she would let Ying Bing go.

Faced with such a response, Ying Bing felt utterly helpless.

During this time, she had pleaded with the Snow Woman countless times, but each time she failed.

Now, she is filled with worry:

Why am I here? Is the Dragon Xia Kingdom safe and sound? How is Gu Xing doing?

...She had no way of knowing any of this.

She did try to leave the snow country.

However, each time they were stopped by the Snow Maiden's guardians before they could leave the snow mountain area, they were "invited" back to the Ice Palace.

During these days, her only "task" is to read stories to the Snow Woman, and...

Answer the endless stream of questions from the Snow Woman.

such as:

"What kind of person is Gu Xing? And why did Lilith fall for him?"

But she didn't even know who Lilith was, so how could she answer?
Soon, the Snow Woman's voice rang out again, tinged with a hint of mockery:

"Little Bing'er, keep telling me stories. Maybe one day I'll be in a good mood and let you go?"

Ying Bing sighed softly.

Circumstances forced her to agree again.
