The Deadly Hitwoman: The Heiress's Special Abilities

Chapter 688: Chapter 688: The Soul-Lost Little Squirrel

Lianwu twitched his mouth: ”Throw it away.”

Xiao Xue widened her eyes and asked incredulously, ”Why!”

”What’s lost is lost.” There are no such reasons. As long as he’s around, these low-level creatures find it hard to survive after being touched by his aura.

So if she doesn’t want to lose him, she can only help to suffocate it.

Xiao Xue turned her head: ”I don’t want to, I’ll go find my mother, she will save the little squirrel.”

Holding the little squirrel, Xiao Xue went to find Han Jing, with Bai Bai following behind like running for his life.

”Mother, quickly save the little squirrel, see how its spirit suddenly became so lethargic, could it have suffocated in the bell?” Xiao Xue diligently held up the little squirrel to Han Jing, who was sorting through some tasty snacks when interrupted like this, she had to hand one piece of beef jerky she had just taken out to her.

Then she shoved the other piece into her mouth before reaching out and taking the little squirrel for a look, there seemed to be nothing wrong!

”Could it be sleepy?” Han Jing watched the squirrel’s eyes devoid of light, looking as if its soul had been lost.

Xiao Xue shook her head: ”I don’t know either.”

”What’s wrong?” Lan Ling came over, squatted down, and asked.

”I don’t know what’s wrong with the little squirrel...” Xiao Xue said vaguely as she chewed on the beef jerky.

After swallowing, she continued: ”Brother Lianwu said I should throw it away, but I don’t want to.”

Lan Ling reached out to pick up the little squirrel, looked at it, and said, ”You’d best throw it away.”

Xiao Xue...

”Why!”

Lan Ling pointed at the squirrel’s eyes and said, ”Can’t you see, its soul is already gone?”

Xiao Xue looked into the squirrel’s eyes, indeed... its soul had scattered, nearly turning it into dementia, it won’t last much longer.

Xiao Xue blinked her eyes, a bit sad: ”Why did this happen!”

Lan Ling shook his head: ”Xiao Xue, you forgot, you’re raising a Ghost King, the souls of these low-level creatures are too fragile, in the presence of a powerful Ghost King, they can’t bear it. Even if he doesn’t make a move, these small creatures’ souls will disperse due to inability to withstand his aura.”

Xiao Xue was dumbfounded: ”Won’t that mean I can never raise small animals again in the future?”

Slightly depressed.

”Poor little squirrel!” Xiao Xue was a bit sad; if she hadn’t taken it out to show Lianwu, it wouldn’t have turned out like this.

Lan Ling patted her head: ”Since it dispersed not long ago, it should still be nearby. Draw a talisman quickly to summon it back, it can still be saved. Then hide it well, and once we reach the outer area, release it.”

Xiao Xue looked at Lan Ling and nodded, though somewhat reluctant, she chose Lianwu over the little squirrel.

This summoning talisman is quite simple, Xiao Xue quickly drew one and helped the little squirrel retrieve its scattered soul. Sure enough, the little squirrel’s eyes regained their spirit. Xiao Xue stroked it: ”Little squirrel, I’m sorry. I originally wanted to take you home, but now I can’t take you along. Once we reach the forest, I’ll release you, make sure to live well!”

The little squirrel chirped twice, as if understanding Xiao Xue’s words, she stroked the little squirrel once more before placing it back into the Blood Jade Bell.

Then, she glanced down at Bai Bai nestled at her feet and worriedly asked, ”What about Bai Bai? I can’t bear to leave Bai Bai...”
