Chapter 1206: Saving Crystal

A young woman was fighting two wolves in a cave. 

She swung her daggers continuously, hoping she could kill these two wolves quickly.

Even though she could not fight normally, the young woman did not give up and did her best to kill the wolves.

That young woman was none other than Crystal, Xiao Tian’s important friend.

Previously, Crystal immediately took out her daggers when two wolves suddenly entered the cave.

She could not run away or stand up because her right thigh was still injured. For this reason, she fought these two wolves in a sitting position.

‘I did not expect that two wolves would attack me.’

Crystal could kill these two wolves easily if her right thigh was not injured.

Sure, wolves were dangerous animals, but they were nothing to a martial artist at the mid-level master stage, especially a strong martial artist like Crystal.

“Hii…” Crystal gritted her teeth when one of the wolves managed to bite her left leg.

‘I have to kill it now!’

She did not let the opportunity to kill that wolf slip away because it was an excellent chance to kill it.

*Slash…Slash…Slash…

Crystal attacked the wolf fast, slicing and stabbing the wolf.

Sure, her legs were injured, but she was still a martial artist at the mid-level master stage. Her speed was fast, to the point she managed to stab that wolf a few times in a second.

After she killed it, Crystal paid attention to the other wolf. The other wolf was not afraid, even though Crystal managed to kill one of them.

At this moment, Xiao Tian was walking towards the cave with a smile on his face. He was pleased because he had picked up a lot of fruit before.

Of course, he still did not know what was going on in the cave.

‘After arriving at the cave, I will take Crystal to the waterfall again. I’m sure it’s a good idea to eat in the waterfall.’

There were many trees around the waterfall, so it was an excellent spot to enjoy their time later.

‘La…La…La…La…’

The smile on his face grew bigger when he imagined eating fruit with Crystal in the waterfall.

However, the smile on his face instantly disappeared when he entered the cave. He was startled, no, he was enraged because a wolf was attacking his friend.

“Crystal!” Xiao Tian dropped the fruit and the wooden fence when he saw a wolf attacking Crystal.

Crystal ignored Xiao Tian because she was fighting a wolf.

The wolf stopped attacking Crystal when it noticed Xiao Tian. Wolves were animals that had excellent instincts.

Their instinct would tell them to run away immediately when they met a dangerous opponent.

For this reason, the wolf did not try to attack Crystal anymore and tried to run away from the cave.

Xiao Tian was a generous opponent, so the wolf decided to run away.

The wolf did not want to die!

Of course, Xiao Tian would not let the wolf run away because the wolf dared to attack his friend.

*Sring…

Xiao Tian extended his special sword as he rushed towards the wolf.

*Slash…

He killed the wolf in one move.

After killing the wolf, Xiao Tian dashed towards Crystal. “Crystal, are you al- “

Xiao Tian stopped his words halfway when he saw blood on Crystal’s left leg.

‘This is a bite mark.’

He turned his head to look at the dead wolf next to him. 

‘I made a mistake again. I shouldn’t have left her alone.’

Xiao Tian started to blame himself.

If he had not left her alone in the cave, he was sure something like this would not have happened to her.

Crystal’s right thigh was injured, and now, her left leg was injured from a wolf bite. 

“It’s fine. At least, I’m still alive.” Crystal spoke when she saw Xiao Tian’s expression.

Even though Xiao Tian did not say anything, she knew what he had in mind.

“Let me treat your wound first.” After saying that, Xiao Tian began to treat Crystal’s wound.

Luckily, he still had enough medicine powder, so he could treat her injury.

When Crystal saw Xiao Tian’s expression, she decided to change the topic. “Did you find fruit for us?”

“Ah, right. The fruit!” Xiao Tian rushed towards the fruit that he dropped to the ground earlier.

*Sigh…

Xiao Tian sighed when he saw more than half the fruit was on the ground.

Previously, he dropped the fruit without thinking twice because a wolf was attacking Crystal.

“Here is the fruit. More than half of the fruit is on the ground. I think it’s better if we don’t eat the fruit that is on the ground because it’s very dirty.” He said something like this because he could pick up the fruit again later, or else he would have picked up the fruit that was on the ground.

“Oh, you found gooseberry and blackberry fruit?” Crystal said in surprise. “You even found banana too.”

“There are two gooseberry and blackberry trees not far from here.” Xiao Tian gave an honest answer. “These trees are filled with fruit.”

“Really?” Crystal asked.

“Yes.” Xiao Tian responded, “Do you want to see it now?”

“Yes.” Crystal nodded her head.

‘Good! He did not blame himself anymore.’

She added in her head.

“I will take you there now.” after saying that, Xiao Tian carried Crystal on his back.

After walking for about five minutes, they finally arrived at their destination.

“There are really gooseberry and blackberry trees here.” Crystal uttered. “There are even banana trees too. It seems like we don’t need to eat fish every day.”

“Hey. Fish is also delicious, you know?” Xiao Tian actually liked fish more than these fruits.

“Yes, yes.” Crystal pointed her right index finger forward. “Xiao Tian, go there. I want to eat gooseberry fruit directly from the tree.” 

Xiao Tian did what he was told and immediately walked towards the gooseberry tree.

“Hehe.” Xiao Tian laughed when he saw Crystal directly eating the gooseberry fruit from the tree.

The gooseberry tree was not high, so Crystal could eat the gooseberry fruit from the tree directly. “Delicious.”

Of course, Xiao Tian knew it was delicious because he had eaten it earlier.

“Xiao Tian, I want to eat blackberry fruit now.” Crystal did not realize that she was behaving like a spoiled child now.

It was the first time she could directly eat fruit from the tree, so she was pleased. That was why she did not realize that she acted like a kid.

Actually, Crystal asked him to take her to blackberry and gooseberry trees because she did not want Xiao Tian to keep blaming himself.

She just did not expect that she would enjoy herself like that. She even forgot that two wolves attacked her just now.

No, she even forgot that her legs were injured because she was pleased.

“Sure.” after saying that, Xiao Tian walked towards the blackberry tree.

“Xiao Tian, I can’t reach the fruit. Lift me higher.” Actually, Crystal could reach the blackberry fruit with her hands, but she did not do that.

“How about you sit on my shoulders?” Xiao Tian inquired.

“Yes. It’s a good idea.” Crystal agreed instantly because, with this, she could eat the fruit from the tree directly.
