Fortunately, the Annihilation Formation of the Ice Jade Spirit Cat blocked most of the power of the black Energy Ball. Otherwise, with Ling Feng's current strength, if he had taken it directly, he might have been reduced to ashes by now.

After fleeing hundreds of kilometers, he discovered that the giant beast hadn't caught up. Ling Feng relaxed mentally and then slipped into the Sky Spirit Stone, falling unconscious.

"Master! What's happened to you?"

Ling Feng suddenly appeared in the cave of the Sky Spirit Stone. Xiong Yan and Dragon Spirit hurriedly rushed over, but Ling Feng had already passed out, his face pale, and blood gushing from his body!

"Such severe injuries!" Guli Jia also came up, couldn't help but say after seeing Ling Feng's injuries: "You should hurry and treat Ling Feng's wounds, otherwise, at this rate, he'll die from excessive blood loss!"

They lifted Ling Feng's body and saw the wound on his back. Around the wound was a circle of black energy, continuously damaging Ling Feng's injury. The flesh inside had already turned black and was rotten.

"Such a strong corrosiveness; the rotten flesh needs to be removed quickly, or the injury will worsen!" Dragon Spirit said anxiously, "Xiong Yan, you do it!"

Xiong Yan's face turned white: "I, I can't do it, I just can't do it to the master!"

Dragon Spirit turned her gaze to Guli Jia, Guli Jia patted her chest and said, "Leave it to me. That guy scared me before, and this time I'll take the opportunity to torment him a bit. I'll remove the corroded flesh!"

With that, Guli Jia took a knife and approached, but when she saw the corroded flesh on Ling Feng's body, her eyes rolled, and she fainted directly.

"This..." Dragon Spirit was speechless. With your courage, where do you get the confidence to talk big?

"Dragon Spirit, you do it!" At this moment, Ling Feng's voice came: "I trust you!"

Dragon Spirit looked at Ling Feng and gripped the knife in her hand: "Master, then I'll begin!"

"Go ahead, I can endure it!" Ling Feng had only fainted temporarily; he was awake now.

Dragon Spirit took a deep breath, then firmly cut the corroded flesh from Ling Feng's body.

A muffled groan, Ling Feng's hands clenched tightly, and the feeling of having his flesh cut away with a knife made each of his nerves tremble.

Dragon Spirit's movements were swift. After ten minutes, she finally removed all the corroded flesh. Ling Feng took a deep breath: "I need to expel the Corrosive Qi from my body now, don't disturb me!"

With that, Ling Feng sat cross-legged, closed his eyes, and began to fully expel the corrosive force left by the black Energy Ball from within his body.

At this moment, Mermaid Guli Jia woke up faintly: "Too terrifying, too disgusting, I really..."

Dragon Spirit retorted without sympathy: "Alright, I've handled it already. I didn't expect you to be so timid."

Guli Jia, angered: "I'm not timid. I just can't stand that kind of scene, and I can be helpful too!"

"How can you help?" Dragon Spirit asked.

Guli Jia chuckled: "My singing is the most beautiful in the Mermaid Clan. I can sing for you all!"

Xiong Yan replied grumpily: "What use is singing!"

Dragon Spirit suddenly said: "Can you really sing? It's said that the songs of the Mermaid Clan have calming and soul-stabilizing effects, is that true?"

"Of course!" Guli Jia said proudly, "In the Mermaid Clan, my singing isn't something everyone can hear!"

"Then sing for the master!" Dragon Spirit urged, since at this moment Ling Feng was frowning, with a somewhat twisted expression.

Guli Jia cleared her throat and began to sing.

The legendary singing of the Mermaid Clan was said to be the voice of the heavens, rarely heard by mortals! Now, hearing Guli Jia's singing, they finally understood what this meant!

Although they couldn't understand what Guli Jia was singing, they could feel the tranquility and peace in the song, like fairy music echoing by their ears, making all their worries disappear without a trace!

The singing came, and Ling Feng's frown gradually relaxed, and Dragon Spirit was also immersed in the song!

Among everyone, perhaps only Xiong Yan's face showed a pale expression!

Because within the song, Xiong Yan's soul found unprecedented calm and stability, and the Mental Control Ling Feng had over her was actually undone by Guli Jia's singing!

"Master, why was I calling that person master!" Xiong Yan recalled the scenes that had occurred before, almost on the verge of collapse!

She was an extremely proud woman, never imagining that one day she would coquettishly call a man "master!"

Moreover... she faintly remembered that once she even wanted to offer herself to this hateful man! Looking back on her feelings at that time, Xiong Yan felt extreme shame, wishing she could die!

But in Guli Jia's song, Xiong Yan's emotions gradually calmed. She began to face her relationship with Ling Feng truthfully!

Although Ling Feng used a Mental Control spell to control her, he never did anything excessive to her. Even when she wanted to offer herself, he refused!

Not only that, he helped Bear Fortress resist the Beastmen, found the Ye Family manipulating Bear Fortress from behind, and completely destroyed the Ye Family, eliminating the Xiong Family's worries!

Later, on the airship, he stood up for her in front of Gong Yu and regained her dignity. And in battle after battle, he never abandoned her; instead, he protected her in the Sky Spirit Stone at the first sign of danger!

Apart from calling him master, did he really treat me like a servant? Xiong Yan asked herself honestly, realizing more and more how good Ling Feng was to her, and she also understood why Ling Feng controlled her at that time!

"What should I do now? Expose Ling Feng, or... maintain the status quo?" Xiong Yan glanced at the pale-faced Ling Feng, feeling a trace of unwillingness and pity, "If he really saw me as a servant, why would he protect me like that?"

Unknowingly, Xiong Yan found that a shadow seemed to have grown in her heart.

Guli Jia's song stopped, and Ling Feng slowly opened his eyes. He exhaled a long breath, a strand of black qi spouting from his mouth, dissipating in the air.

"Finally, the last trace of Corrosive Qi has been expelled!" Ling Feng thought to himself, if it weren't for the boost from Guli Jia's singing, he might not have been able to expel the Corrosive Qi so easily!

However... when Ling Feng opened his eyes, he realized the Mental Control mark on Xiong Yan had disappeared, meaning she had broken free from his control!

"Master... you're awake?" Ling Feng was surprised as Xiong Yan looked at him with a blush, carrying a hint of coyness.
