'Well this is new'

Xiao thought as he was led by Li Lun, he could subtly feel the void Qi around him but he wasn't too proficient in it, the odd thing here was the fact that more close he is to Li Lun, the more better he felt the void Qi around him, he could also feel a subtle powerful attraction from her too,

"Wait"

Suddenly Li Lun spoke as she stopped, just as she did the area before them started to get shaky before which several dangerous void rays bisected the place they should have walked into,

"Well, that's not good"

Xiao spoke as he looked at the scorched blurry ground before him, though he wasn't surprised much as Mia was displaying in front of him a perfect map of the trial they were in, Xiao could blindly walk through this place and reach to safety but that would have totally destroyed the objective of this trial, there's also the fact that this is a good situation for Li Lun to grow stronger,

"It's getting harder for me to track the threads of Qi"

Li Lun suddenly said making Xiao frown but that didn't last before which he tightened upon Li Lun's hand which held to him, a smile of trust taking his face as he spoke,

"Don't worry, we will take it slow and I will be here beside you to support you in any way you desire"

Hearing Xiao's words Li Lun calmed down as she took deep breaths, a relaxed smile taking her face, letting go of his hand she soon sat cross-legged on the ground, she kept taking deep breaths as Xiao felt the void Qi around him started to swirl around Li Lun,

'She's enchanting her focus over the Qi'

Upon thinking so Xiao sat beside Li Lun in a similar manner, the Qi that was surrounding Li Lun soon started to surround him, both of them feeling and enhancing their control over their respective Qi, this lasted for a minute after which Li Lun and Xiao opened their eyes, both of them looking into each other and being lost in the eyes of each other for a second,

"Better?"

Xiao asked with a smile to which Li Lun nodded her head with a blush on her face, both of them stood up as Li Lun spoke with a serious voice,

"Be safe"

"I will"

As Xiao replied Li Lun took his hand again as she started to walk forward, he walking close along with her, the fog now looked much more dreadful as both of them felt a heaviness around them, the void Qi around them was now much more forceful and heavy,

'It's good to we improved before heading out again'

Xiao could feel that the void Qi around them was now getting better in quality, making it much harder for the two of them to move around. Suddenly Li Lun pulled Xiao forward making him lunch front and just as he had moved a ray of dangerous grey light arrived at the exact head location of Xiao.

But this was not over as several other rays kept falling upon them, this time Li Lun was in a pinch as she took the active role of fighting, her beautiful bow appeared in her hands as she used the edge of her bow to smack away any lights hitting close to them, she was a guardian for Xiao as she exchanged some blows on her body to protect Xiao from getting hurt.

Knowing that Xiao wasn't as proficient as her, she had to give it her 200% just to make sure that Xiao wasn't hurt, at some locations of her body small cuts took place but she didn't pay any heed to them as she kept moving all around Xiao, her hands not even resting as she kept taking in all the attacks,

Ping!.....Ping!.....Ping!.....Ping!

The hands that held the bow were getting tighter while Li Lun's eyes were getting more and more ferocious, just the fact that a mishap from her could hurt or worse kill Xiao was burning her heart as she started to defend herself with greater vigor, her control over her Qi kept getting better, as she started to go into a higher level of understanding.

The third eye on her forehead trembled a bit but it didn't open, it just trembled for a bit before which it went to rest, the grey void Qi around Li Lun was now moving more fluidly than before, she was using them to block some attacks she was doing so while improving her understanding over her bow, her desire to protect Xiao was to let loose as she made sure that no void ray shall harm Xiao,

'Atta girl! that's how you do it! let's see how he won't fall for you no!'

Teresa cheered on as she saw this heart-moving scene, her eyes lit up in entertainment as she saw her successor getting stronger with each passing second, it would seem that the idea of protecting the one she loves was pushing out all the latent talents within Li Lun,

'It's working well'

Tereasa used the reverse plan of beauty protecting the prince, just what man could not have his heart moved when a girl was protecting him with everything she'd got? Moreover, the said man right now was in danger while being protected, this would only invoke the feelings he has for the girl to be higher.

In normal circumstances, Teresa knew that this trial will be a breeze for Xiao, especially after she herself got a taste of his power but the trial was meant for growth and understanding, this would mean that Xiao could only use the gift she gave him, he right now was definitely in grave danger!

Teresa didn't live for so long without having picked up one or more ways to manipulate the heart, she was sure by the end of the three trials that these two have to go through, both Xiao and Li Lun will definitely be very lovey-dovey!

'Get him, girl!' 𝗳𝐫𝘦e𝘸𝗲𝚋𝓃𝚘v𝘦𝘭.𝑐𝒐m

While such thrilling scenes were going on the boy in question was in an entirely different situation, he was getting blasted from all sides yet Li Lun moved and got hurt to protect him, his eyes were deeply focused on her actions,

'Her moves are unrefined but her speed of improvement is terrifying'

Xiao thought, unlike what the rest thought, he right now relaxed and easy, Mia was right now using red lines to denote the trajectories of the ray that was aiming at him, dodging them was child play for him but he kept his pace as Li Lun bled for him.

Did he feel nothing from this?

Truthfully Xiao didn't feel much, this type of injury was nothing in front of the ones that Li Lun would be facing in the future, he wasn't some stuck-up guy that screamed or cried upon seeing the people he care about getting hurt, especially not when its just training and theim getting stringer.

It's better getting hurt now than dying a dog's death later on...

Though Xiao won't deny that he was touched by Li Lun's action, seeing such a girl trying so hard to protect him sure was making his heart feel warm but that still didn't change the situation, Xiao suddenly moved a bit causing three different rays to suddenly arrive at him through Li Lun's blind spot.

Upon seeing so Li Lun suddenly moved as she blast an arrow to intercept one of the rays before using all her concentration to control the void ray to miss Xiao, and the last one was taken by Li Lun's body as her shoulder scorched and burned, her shoulders trembling she stood in front of Xiao her back to him as she spoke with sweat and tiredness all over her,

"Huff.....huff.....don't worry I won't let anything happen to you"

'I'm touched'

Xiao thought as he looked at Li Lun with a widened gaze of anger at himself, he had to do this much at least to give Li Lun motivation and to deal with the peeper that's enjoying the show,

'Is Teresa still watching?'

[[Yes, master]]

'I can't be completely still'

Upon thinking so Xiao flashed his swords as he thought of helping out but suddenly Li Lun spoke raising her hands to block him,

"NO! this is my fight! I want to protect you myself, this time I will be the lead!"

Li Lun screamed with all her heart as she fought forward, while Xiao on the outside had a touching expression, yet his thoughts were different,

'Why do I feel like a girl?....eh...of well might think about other things now' f𝔯ee𝘸𝘦𝚋𝒏oѵ𝐞l.c𝒐𝓂

So Xiao started to talk to Mia to know more about the tower while Li Lun fought with her life to protect Xiao, in between at times Xiao would scream out in fright, while sometimes cheering on. it was a chaotic situation?
