I've seen many people raising wives, but this is the first time I've seen someone raising

Under Zygarde's angry attack, Xerneas's slender body seemed to be unable to hold on.

The four slender deer hooves sank deeper and deeper into the soil under the pressure.

With a loud "boom", the destructive death light exploded in mid-air.

The instantaneous shock wave undoubtedly penetrated the already shaky green barrier.

"Oh!"

Using teleportation, Xia Mu narrowly avoided the attack.

However, Xerneas faced the damage head-on, and was knocked away with a muffled groan.

When he landed again, although he managed to hold on to his body, his steps were heavy and he had lost his previous agility.

Injuries of varying sizes were scattered across his slender body, making him look particularly serious.

But before Xerneas could catch his breath.

Zygarde's huge body suddenly disappeared at a speed that was inconsistent with its size.

Speedy!

Sensing a gust of wind coming from behind, Xerneas twisted his body drastically, intending to respond with a super horn attack.

"Boom-"

Zygarde's thick tail collided with the colorful antlers, and a dull sound came from the impact.

The difference in size caused Xerneas to take a few steps back.

She tapped her toes and jumped all the way back to Xia Mu before she finally stopped.

Xia Mu glanced sideways and found that Xerneas's eyes were slightly dazed.

Obviously, the collision was quite serious.

After a brief fight, Xerneas was clearly at a disadvantage.

After she stood firm, she did not move forward rashly.

And Zygarde, who was not far away, also stood up and stayed where he was, watching.

Invisibly, the air froze once again.

Sudden...

Zygarde's body glowed green.

Immediately afterwards, a series of green streams of light streaked across the sky and flew into its body.

It seemed like it was absorbing something, quietly accepting the countless rays of green light flying into its body.

Seeing the scene before him, Xerneas's expression became even uglier.

Even Ifertal, who was hiding in the capture net, trembled.

Got to die here.

This was the first reaction of the two legendary Pokémon.

Zygarde’s current form is not yet complete, but it is enough to make them suffer.

Once the opponent has completely transformed into his complete form, there is no chance of escape at all.

"Stupid deer, go and interrupt it."

While trapped in the capture net, Ifertal felt a rare sense of real fear.

Although it and Xerneas can be resurrected, they still fear death.

After all, each resurrection takes at least several hundred years.

And after waking up, they will immediately lose some of their memories, and their strength will also be weak for a period of time.

If possible, they definitely don't want to die.

However, Xerneas just glanced at it lightly, without any intention of paying any attention to it.

She is still injured and her strength is not enough to interrupt Zygarde's transformation.

An unwilling, humanized expression appeared on Xerneas's face.

"Xerneas."

Suddenly, a voice came from my ears.

Xerneas looked back and saw that it was the human ghost who had helped him before.

"If I could find a way for you to escape from here, would you take it?"

"The price... is that you have to do me a favor."

Xia Mu looked at the other person calmly without fear, and stated his purpose in a calm tone.

From the perspective, Xerneas's eyes were still calm, like a pool of water without any ripples.

"If it's an attack like the one just now, it won't be very effective."

Xerneas's voice echoed in his heart.

Xia Mu couldn't help being a little surprised when he heard the calm and gentle female voice.

Or a doe?

But then, he raised the corners of his lips again and shook his head gently.

"Of course it's not such a crude method."

The moment he finished speaking, an equally rich life energy filled the surrounding space.

This time, Xerneas's hazel eyes shrank visibly.

Chapter 465: I'll be gentle

"Blessing?!"

"Why do you have my blessing?!"

The pleasant female voice sounded in Xia Mu's head again.

But compared to the calmness before, Xerneas' tone now contained a hint of shock and urgency.

Blessing is something that only a very small number of Pokémon can bring down under certain circumstances.

As the Pokémon that controls life, she is very lucky to have this ability.

Creatures blessed by her will have extremely strong vitality and their lifespan will far exceed that of their own kind.

If you are gifted, you may even have the ability to control life energy.

But the blessing is not without cost.

Every time a blessing was bestowed, her own strength would drop a bit, and there was no way to recover in a short time.

Xerneas considers himself to be a stingy deer who has not bestowed any blessings in thousands of years.

She almost forgot this ability in the corner of her brain.

but...

I feel the vitality of Xia Mu, which is like the spring breeze, and the aura that is exactly the same as my own.

Xerneas had to admit that this was indeed a blessing for him.

Even if there was another Xerneas in the world, it would not be possible to impersonate him.

"Where did you come from?"

She stared at Xia Mu, her head buzzing.

It was precisely because she confirmed the truth that she felt even more confused.

"I don't know, I was born with it."

Xia Mu shook his head and replied.

He was not lying. The blessing of Xerneas was indeed something that existed when he was still possessed by the ore.

Hearing Xia Mu's answer, Xerneas opened his mouth in confusion.

This was the most confusing thing for her in the past thousand years.

Born with it?

It can't be her...

"This should be enough as a bargaining chip, right?"

Before she could continue thinking, Xia Mu continued to ask.

In the distance, Zygarde is still constantly absorbing cell clones coming from all over the world.

While changing its form, the injuries it had just suffered seemed to be gradually recovering.

In just a moment, the scars caused by the heavy equipment disappeared without a trace.

"You want to use your life energy to heal me?"

Xerneas chuckled, not understanding how Xia Mu could use the blessing as a bargaining chip.

If it were any other Pokémon, Life Energy would indeed be able to quickly heal injuries.

But she is a life Pokémon and has no shortage of means to heal herself.

"Your bargaining chips are useless to me."

Xerneas shook his head and stated the facts calmly.

Having said that, she turned her head away, as if she had no intention of listening to what Xia Mu wanted to entrust her with.

but...

"If you give away the blessing, you will lose strength, but if the blessing returns, you should become stronger."

Xia Mu's unhurried voice still floated into her ears.

Xerneas's two deer ears twitched slightly, and the whole deer froze in place.

The other party is right.

The blessing will not disappear out of thin air. After returning to her original form, she will indeed become much stronger.

And judging from the aura of the other party, the power of that blessing is quite strong.

If she could get it back, not only would she be able to recover from all her injuries, she would even have a chance to fight Zygarde.

only...

"I can't take back the blessing on you."

Xerneas glanced at Xia Mu and felt confused again.

Ordinary blessings, she can give and naturally take back.

But the aura on the other person was clearly hers, but she did not have the control over it.

Xia Mu seemed to have known this for a long time and was not surprised at all.

Meeting Xerneas's gaze, he gently nodded his neck.

"I can't control the blessing, but..."

"As far as I know, if the blessed person encounters an accident, the blessing will automatically return to the original body."

Xia Mu's voice was very calm, as if he was narrating a trivial matter that had nothing to do with him.

But Xerneas, who understood his meaning, opened his eyes wide unconsciously.

She never expected that the other party meant this.

"After you take back the blessing, you can naturally escape from Zygarde."

"This should be enough as a bargaining chip, right?"
