Chapter 1343 - 1339
Yun Ran was hidden by the Dragon Spirit in the domain created within its belly, and her entire aura completely disappeared.
It’s as if she never existed in this Dream Realm at all.
Chi Yao, who was sunbathing with his eyes closed, suddenly opened them wide, and his back tensed up tightly.
The Little Paperman, observing from afar, instantly sounded the alarm, instinctively sure that something serious had happened.
It couldn’t even bother to guard against Chi Yao and dashed right up to him.
"Has something happened to my master!!!"
Currently, in this base, only its master could cause Chi Yao to react this way.
When the Dragon Spirit was trapped before, Chi Yao was still eating and drinking well, without any change in his emotions.
Chi Yao didn’t directly respond to the Little Paperman but instead took out a palm-sized, somewhat shabby little mirror.
After his hand brushed over the surface of the small mirror, the originally green-rusted, rough-looking mirror flashed with a bright light.
The Little Paperman noticed that Chi Yao ignored it and still had the leisure to fiddle with a shabby mirror, feeling somewhat displeased.
But it still held its temper, waiting for Chi Yao to give an explanation.
A minute passed, two minutes passed...
Until ten minutes passed, Chi Yao remained in the same posture, and if he wasn’t still breathing, the Little Paperman would suspect that this was a fake person.
Chi Yao’s unusual behavior eventually made the Little Paperman forget its previous clamoring to draw clear lines with Chi Yao.
It moved closer right away, even stretching its head forward.
The image in the mirror suddenly and unexpectedly reflected in the Little Paperman’s eyes, revealing a living white vortex in the middle of the shabby mirror.
"Ay!"
When an inexplicable pain suddenly came from its body, the Little Paperman reflexively cried out.
When it saw that its body was firmly held by Ma San, the Little Paperman was instantly dumbfounded.
The Little Paperman wasn’t aware that when its gaze met the vortex, its body seemed to be frozen.
The body was suspended in mid-air, without any movement.
Ma San, who was silently doing his work in a corner, started to guard against Chi Yao together with the Little Paperman.
Initially, he didn’t make any move until he had cleared all the grass from a small patch of the flower garden, while the Little Paperman still maintained the same posture.
Ma San suddenly felt a jolt in his heart, quickly threw down the weed removal tool in his hand, and rushed to the front of the Little Paperman.
He used all his might, only then managing to pull the Little Paperman away from its original position.
"Puh!"
The Little Paperman hadn’t even had a chance to ask Ma San what was going on when Ma San suddenly spat a mouthful of blood.
His appearance clearly indicated that he had been injured by something previously.
"Hey, what’s wrong with you, don’t scare me!!!"
Initially, the Little Paperman wasn’t too impressed with Ma San; weak in strength was one thing, but he had come halfway to snatch work. No way it could be pleased.
But now, they’re trapped here by Chi Yao, even though it’s supposedly for protection, the Little Paperman still has reservations.
Under these circumstances, Ma San, being the personal follower of its master in the Little Paperman’s eyes, naturally seemed closer in relationship.
Not to mention that now Ma San’s state clearly shows he’s injured for its sake.
For its own people, the Little Paperman was generous, and looking at Ma San spitting so much blood made it feel somewhat guilty.
It immediately pulled out a few special pills from its belly.
These were usually consumed like candies, used directly when desired, and temporarily stored in the belly when not.
"Quickly take this Healing Medicine, it works very well."
Ma San took the pills without any doubts, even feeling somewhat honored, and swallowed them whole.
The originally burning-hot chest suddenly felt a cool breeze flowing through.
"Thank you, Lord Paper, for the medicine."
The Little Paperman waved his hand, as if it were a trivial matter.
"What exactly happened just now, why are you here and injured?"
Ma San immediately recounted what had happened earlier, suddenly his expression froze: "Lord Paper, could it be that you don’t remember anything from that long stretch of time before?"
Being a Paper Puppet like the Little Paperman, it carried some of its master’s temperament and, like Yun Ran, had quite an ego.
Saying it didn’t know in front of someone clearly a level lower wasn’t like slapping its own face.
The Little Paperman quickly scolded Ma San: "Just answer what I ask, don’t ask unnecessary questions!"
If not for the fact that Ma San got injured for it, the Little Paperman would have challenged him further: What position does he have to question it!
Having been scolded, Ma San showed no dissatisfaction, as if he was born to be servile.
"Lord Paper, I apologize for speaking out of turn..."
The Little Paperman waved his hand to indicate Ma San could step back; it was indeed affected, and Ma San was not even counted as cannon fodder here.
Carefully checking its body, it found no injuries or special mark remains.
Only then did the Little Paperman breathe a sigh of relief, but it dared not approach Chi Yao’s vicinity again.
That small mirror was really eerie, especially the white vortex, which was a power it couldn’t comprehend at all.
Especially when recalling that Chi Yao had said if someone trapped it and extracted the essence blood left on it by its master...
While the Little Paperman wasn’t worried at that time, it hadn’t experienced the inexorable feeling of being trapped without any power to fight back.
Therefore, it couldn’t imagine what that feeling was like.
But now, it knows that Chi Yao’s little mirror can easily trap it without any warning.
Throughout the process, there’s almost no awareness; if the small mirror hadn’t specifically targeted someone else, the Little Paperman thought it might have really been caught.
Thinking this, the Little Paperman made a private decision.
It wanted to set a new prohibition on itself to trigger self-destruction as soon as it lost consciousness.
Chi Yao maintained that pose for over an hour, and only when the white vortex in the mirror disappeared, did he seem to come back to life again.
