Chapter 1496 – Bring Her Along
Fortunately for Lin Yi, though, he didn’t have to worry about the Ice Palace side, since they said he could have followers or servants. He could just say that Xiaoxiao was his follower- it didn’t matter if the follower was dead or alive; he was the one doing the walking and him doing the carrying. She was his follower, and that was that!
This was Yu Bing’s first time seeing Xiaoxiao- the sight of such a pretty girl lying in an ice coffin, he felt his heartache. It was no wonder Lin Yi was coming all this way to find her that elixir, going as far as to participate in the test!
This was a girl not less than his litter sister- It was then that Yu Bing realized how much competition his sister had to deal with!
“You’re really bringing her along?” Yu Bing looked a little shocked as Lin Yi took Xiaoxiao out of the container.
“Yeah… Have to.” Lin Yi nodded as he took out some rope from the car and gave it to Yu Bing. “Here, help me out- I’ll carry her on my back, help me tie her around me!”
“That’s…” Yu Bing was about to ask if he was crazy- how dangerous was this? The test alone was dangerous enough as it was, and now Lin Yi wanted to carry someone on his back into it? Wasn’t this a huge handicap and burden on him?
But, seeing that determined look in his eyes, he sighed and shook his head. “Alright!”
Lin Yi crouched down and let Xiaoxiao lean against his back as Yu Bing stabilized her position with rope, fastening her to his back.
“Done, thanks!” Lin Yi stood up and jumped twice, nodding with a smile once he saw that it was stable.
“Man, I really don’t know what to say- bringing someone into the test like this, I’ve never heard of it before.” Yu Bing said helplessly. “I don’t have much luggage, just some elixirs and pills on me. Should be enough.”
“Then we don’t need to go back to the inn!” With that, Lin Yi turned and waved to his room’s window. “Skybolt pig, come down!”
“Oink, oink…” A white shadow jumped out from the window and landed beside Lin Yi.
“A mystic class spirit beast?” Yu Bing jumped- he’d been to his room a few times already, and even slept there- he hadn’t seen an ancient beast in Lin Yi’s room!
“Yeah, but no combat abilities, pretty much trash.” Lin Yi nodded.
“Oink oink…” The pig replied after hearing that harsh comment about him- but he kept silent! He’d seen first hand how miraculous this Lin Yi was, leveling him up in an instant. He’d been trying for hundreds of years, after all…
Yu Bing nodded, not thinking much about it. This Skybolt pig was probably similar to that ancient spirit beast his sister had, not an attack-type but a beast with practitioner strength only.
Ancient spirit beasts were rare, but hidden houses had a couple themselves- this pig wasn’t that big an attention catcher because of that.
Every hidden house had more or less a few of these beasts- but the ones with attack power were even rarer. There really was just a select few who had attack type beasts in this test.
Bringing a normal spirit beast wouldn’t be of help, after all, and the practitioner had to take care of it themselves. It was a burden.
And so, Lin Yi took a look around- the people who went back into the inn for their spirit beast were just four or five people, and mostly those beasts were only mystic class, same as the pig. Lin Yi didn’t have to worry about being at a disadvantage on that front.
After all, spirit beasts fighting each other was different from when they fought humans. They went by strength levels- and strength level alone. As long as those spirit beasts didn’t come butt into their business, Lin Yi didn’t have to care much about them.
One hour passed by quickly, and Qing appeared on the empty field in front of the inn once more. The practitioners participating were also prepared to go.
As for Lin Yi carrying someone on his back, it was already public news. Everyone wondered if Lin Yi hit his head or something- carrying a dead person to go into the test? Was this some true love or something?
“Great Pao, you think this Ling Yi lost his mind? Carrying corpse like that into the test?” Zhuang Niaopao said mockingly. “He’s going to get himself killed, isn’t he? Maybe he’s planning to die together with that dead girl.’
Naipao was confused as well, wondering what this Lin Yi was up to. But Naipao was different from Niaopao- his practitioner’s arts was special, and was especially sensitive to outside energy. He could sense that the girl wasn’t dead yet, but even so, she was hanging on by a thread!
With Naipao’s understanding of Lin Yi, this guy wouldn’t do something that dumb, right? But here he was, doing exactly that.
Naipao wanted to see just who this person on his back was, but Xiaoxiao’s face was leaning on his shoulder, her hair covering her face. Naipao had to give up after a while.
“Who knows? Maybe it’s someone he wants to save?” Naipao shook his head- he really couldn’t understand why Lin Yi would bring a half-dead girl here to the test!
Most of the practitioners thought the same thing- they didn’t understand why he was doing this, but they all thought he was insane.
What was left were those who didn’t even care- Lin Yi could do whatever he wanted. Yang Qiqi, for example, saw this as just some ridiculous thing that Lin Yi was doing, though whatever this bastard did, it had nothing to do with her!
Qing looked at the practitioners on the field, mainly to see the level of the spirit beasts. None of them broke the rules, but she did pause when she was the person on Lin Yi’s back.
But she didn’t say anything- with her strength; she could feel Xiaoxiao’s situation. She was hanging by a thread, barely alive. She didn’t know why Lin Yi was bringing her along, but he was breaking no rules.
She could count as Lin Yi’s servant, after all, and her strength level did pass the requirements as well. As for her half-dead state… The rules didn’t say that you couldn’t bring a half-dead person to the test!
