    “Have a go, then,” Urien replied without even turning his head. He was holding a long-necked crystal vial, and was adding in mysterious magic potions of all colors before gently swirling the mixture.


    “You can do it, Big Sister Aisha,” Amy encouraged Aisha with anticipation in her eyes. She then stood tiptoe and offered words of constion to Xixi and Lulu. “Big Sister Xixi, Big Bear, Big Sister Aisha and Master Turtle are both super amazing; they’ll definitely make you better again.”


    “You have to get better! Your love story is far too touching to end in tragedy!” Yabemiya stood off to the side with an anxious look on her face.


    “Save her... first...” A hoarse, stuttering voice escaped Lulu’s mouth. He then turned to Sally with aplex look in his eyes.


    “Alright.” Sally nodded before suddenly producing a chopstick. A sh of green light appeared, and the chopstick grew into a small bamboo nt at a rate that was discernible to the naked eye.


    “Eh?” Urien stopped what he was doing before turning to look at the bamboo nt in Sally’s hands with surprise on his face. There was extremely abundant life force energy emanating from that little nt. He narrowed his eyes as he thought to himself, <i>Who would have thought that she would be capable of casting life magic? Looks like she’s no ordinary elf. A life magic spell of that caliber will indeed be a lot more effective than potions. It seems like I underestimated her. However, won’t thebination of nature magic and life magic produce an unfavorable reaction?</i>


    Xixi forced her eyes open as she turned her gaze on the bamboo nt in Sally’s hands, upon which a hint of surprise and anxiety appeared in her eyes. The aura of the life magic was very familiar to her, but it coexisted with apletely different type of nature magic. It was as if two trees had sprouted from the same set of roots before growing in different environments, thereby bing twopletely different trees.


    “Mighty tree of life, please grant me the power of light and the power to wash away all impurities...” Sally chanted as she gently pressed the bamboo nt against Xixi’s wound, which was on her lower abdomen.


    Faint green light slowly enveloped Xixi’s lower abdomen, and theyer of ice and frost for blood loss prevention vanished. ck and red contaminants could still be seen on the wound that had almost epassed her entire lower abdomen, and blood began to seep out again. Those were the toxins from the werewolves’ ws, and the reason why her bleeding refused to stop.


    “Ngh...” Xixi’s brows furrowed as she moaned in pain. Her body unconsciously tried to curl up into a ball, and cold sweat instantly beaded on her forehead.


    Lulu held onto her hand with gentle concern in his eyes.


    Xixi met Lulu’s gaze, and it was as if her pain suddenly diminished significantly.


    Sally gently swept her other hand over the wound, and a turquoise stream of water appeared, washing over the gash. The water seemed to be the bane of those contaminants, and thetter were immediately washed away. The wound returned to its normal color, and Sally ensured that no further blood was shed.


    “Phew...” Xixi exhaled lightly. The pain from her wound had been drastically alleviated, and the cool flow of water presented a very soothing andfortable sensation, just as if a pair of nimble little hands was gently massaging her injury.


    <i>Eh? There’s seems to be something in her body that is facilitating self-recovery. It’s very slow, but it has a simr effect to life magic. </i>Sally was just about to use her bamboo nt again when a hint of green light appeared on Xixi’s wound, which drew a surprised reaction from her. She had seen that light in battle before as well; those magic waves had a great affinity with nature.


    <i>Perhaps it’s some sort of inherent regeneration ability. </i>Sally didn’t think too much about it, and gently tapped the wound with her bamboo nt. Green light flowed relentlessly into the ghastly gash, and it began to heal on its own.


    The processsted about three minutes, after which the crisp green bamboo nt in Sally’s handspletely shrivelled up before being reduced to a pile of dust.


    Gentle green light enshrouded Xixi’s entire body; her wound hadpletely healed, leaving only a faint scar behind. She had absorbed all of the abundant life force energy from the life magic spell, and a hint of color returned to her deathly pale face. It appeared that she was going to be alright.


    Sally also heaved a sigh of relief upon seeing that. Xixi’s injuries werepletely different from the minor wound that Mag had sustained on his hand. Furthermore, she very rarely used life magic to administer treatment, but it appeared that she had been sessful, and Xixi would be fine after she absorbed the remaining life force energy.


    Sally then produced another chopstick, seemingly out of thin air, and prepared to attend to Lulu.


    However, right at that moment, a shriveled little seedling suddenly popped up from Xixi’s stomach. It then began to frantically absorb the life force energy around Xixi,pletely sucking all of it away in the blink of an eye before disappearing into her lower abdomen again.


    “What was that?” Sally was a little stunned. The little seedling had only appeared for less than three seconds, but that was enough for her to catch a clear glimpse of it. After it merged with Xixi’s body again, her breathing seemed to have be more stable, and she was fine aside from a hint of feebleness.


    <i>It really is the World Tree, but it appears to be close to wilting. Looks like it’s barely hanging on by a thread, so it most likely won’t be able to witness the dryads return to their former glory. </i>Urien sighed internally as he shifted his gaze away from Xixi’s lower abdomen.


    “Big Sister Aisha is the best!” Amy eximed gently with wide eyes.


    “Please save him.” Xixi was still too weak to get up, so she could only turn a beseeching gaze toward Sally. She held Lulu’s hand gently with sympathy in her eyes.


    “Alright.” Sally nodded in response. She was a bit puzzled by what she had just witnessed, but she still immediately began to administer treatment.


    Inparison to Xixi, Lulu’s injuries were even ghastlier. There was almost no part of his body that had been left intact.


    Blue water washed over his wounds, while green light settled over his body. The bleeding quickly stopped, and scabs began to appear. The painful expression on his face also gradually receded, and his breathing became more even and stable. He took a nce at Xixi before falling unconscious.


    A second bamboo nt was reduced to dust as Sally said to the concerned Xixi, “I’ve stopped the bleeding, but more straining activities must be avoided to prevent the wounds from tearing open again. His injuries were extremely severe, and he has lost a lot of blood, so he needs an extended period of rest and recuperation. Don’t worry, he’s only asleep now.”


    “Thank you, thank all of you.” Xixi struggled into a sitting position with a grateful expression on her face.


    “I’m just d you’re all ok.” An ted smile appeared on Yabemiya’s face before her eyes suddenly widened, and she rushed out the door as she yelled, “I have to get back to work! The boss must be struggling on his own!”


    “I have to go back to work as well.” Sally was also in a slight panic. There were so many customers in the restaurant; there was no way that Mag would be able to handle them all on his own.


    Yabemiya was running very frantically, and she crashed directly into somebody after running out the door. A frosty aura almost instantly froze her body solid, but her head seemed to be in contact with something that was... quite soft?
