BXBX NOVEL Chapter 41 - 41. Hurry Up. Strong!
The girl's violet pupil had now turned sapphire blue and was staring at her gravely, with a smirk on her lips.
"LONG TIME NO SEE, BLACK WITCH." like being struck by lightning, the witch suddenly fell to her knees with bent legs, staring in fear at the girl who had almost become her victim just a moment ago.
It was clear that the little girl in front of her was not the same girl who was just a moment ago. The mana waves coming out of her body were completely different and extremely powerful.
"Who ... who are you?" asked the woman began to tremble.
"Check, very funny. Do I need to say that I am an angel who will take your life? By the way, what if it's my turn to take you to hell?" A sinister smile etched on Fu Xie Lan's lips.
"Who are you? I have no business with you," shouted the old witch after a few seconds of recovering from her shock, all the masked people who were with her before, now disappeared, have become ashes blown by the wind
"You were the one who forced me out," after saying that, her fingers swung gently, and at the same time the chain binding Wan Lie loosened at a speed that could not be seen by the eye and managed to leave a scar like a burn, the chain then tied the old woman's body and managed to make her fall to the ground.
"No, no. Don't kill me. I promise to let the young man go and not bother you anymore. I beg you," wailed the witch.
"Managing me to get out of course the pay won't be that easy, you know? Now I'm so excited to kill you."
"Ah Damn! that seal limits my time," she said to herself. Not the slightest bit of tenderness remained in her, only hatred and disappointment.
"You think killing me will keep those fools safe?" said the old witch chuckled.
Fu Xie Lan's hand lifted slowly, moving just wagging her hand and at that moment the woman's body that was shackled by her chains caught fire with some of her ashes being carried away by the wind with some others fused with the ground, even that which had not had time digesting and realizing what had happened to her and that death had taken her life.
At the same time, the tense and dark atmosphere slowly regained its warmth. The black clouds that covered the sky slowly disappeared replaced by a clear blue sky with several white clouds hanging like paintings on a beautiful canvas.
Inhaling as much air as possible, her body turned around and stepped towards Wan Lie's body which was lying on the ground. The breath that sounded weak made her heart sink.
Standing beside Wan Lie's body, her gaze turned to the sky.
"Hurry up Strong, so that I don't have to take risks like this again," after saying that, her eyes slowly closed, and darkness took over her again. Now Fu Xie Lan was lying unconscious right next to the young man who always called her mother.
From a distance a tall girl watched all this with trembling knees, one hand covering her mouth to prevent her from making a sound. She was even afraid to just take a breath.

Bai Mo and Bai Xue had already left the food stall where they rested a while ago. The scorching smell mixed with blood succeeded in making the two of them look for the origin of the smell. And here they are, in the woods not far from the Phoenyx Academy.
The rune that was not too deep in the ground with the fire marks filling its surface managed to distract and draw the two bodyguards closer.
"Late!" said Bai Mo when he saw the rune.
After sniffing around, there was a faint rotten smell. So it was with Bai Xue. they have memorized the smell, it belongs to the black magician. It looks like a moment ago there was a massacre here.
"Looks like there are a lot of them," said Bai Xue with one hand grabbing several masks that were lying on the ground.
"Maybe this is the reason why Lord Gu ordered us to stand guard around the academy?" Bai Xue concluded. When they rested at the food stall a while ago, Bai Mo had already told all the messages that the crow had conveyed.
"I think so," Bai Mo confirmed.
"Mom, look at this!" shouted Bai Xue approaching Bai Mo with one of his fingers pointing at the symbol of a dark red rose on the corner of the mask she found.
"Isn't this the same symbol we saw a few years ago?"
"Emmm."
"Neutralize this place, before anyone sees it," he added, gesturing at Bai Xue.
The scarlet rose symbol printed on the mask is very sensitive, every event involving the life of someone they find so far, wherever, they will find that symbol.
Disappeared for a few years, and now, somehow they have reappeared.
They've been investigating it for the last few years but it always ends up like it is now. those people keep disappearing when they come back to investigate, and that gets them into trouble.
Do these people have new targets?
Several minutes have passed, they have neutralized the place. No more burnt smell mixed with the stench of blood, no more bad smells. Everything is replaced with a fresh and refreshing forest aroma.
"Let's go,"

The strong smell of herbs quickly filled the room, a middle-aged woman painstakingly mixed several types of medicinal plants and then rubbed them on the hands, feet, and neck of a young man who was still unconscious.
Finished smearing, she then carefully popped a pill into the young man's mouth by occasionally transferring the mana in her body to restore the young man.
Then she turned to the little girl who was lying there weakly. Although there was no visible wound to the naked eye, the girl had suffered a very severe internal wound, and now that the three kinds of pills had entered the girl's body, she transferred her body's mana to prevent further damage to the girl's body.
The door opened slowly, giving a tall girl access to the room with a small jug filled with warm water in her arms. Since earlier, her fingers had refused to stop shaking. The image of what happened just a moment ago filled her head.
"How are they, Grandma? "asked the girl in the smallest possible voice.
"What happened to you? Why look so scared?"
"Look, your hands don't stop shaking. Don't tell me you hurt them?" she added, squinting suspiciously.
"No grandma, I swear not me. I found them unconscious in the middle of the forest," she replied smoothly as she put the jug she was carrying on the old table.
"Hmm, great."
"The young man may have regained consciousness a few moments later, while the girl ..." she said then turned to the girl.
"Why Grandma?"
"I don't know, the wound was really bad. I can't be sure when she'll wake up," she said with a harsh sigh.
"What a pity, the world today is very different, people are becoming very hypocritical and getting greedy, I don't want you to get involved with many people, just here, in this place and don't go anywhere," said the middle-aged woman in a voice very small but still able to reach the hearing of a tall girl standing not far from him.
.

It was already evening, and there was still no sign that the young man would regain consciousness.
