The Snail Princess and Her Benefactor

On the steep cliff of the Cliff of Broken Souls, two pretty little girls were climbing to the top of the mountain with difficulty.

A weak little girl, an ordinary mortal body.

Hua Chao had already used up all his strength, using his hands and feet, but he was still crawling like a snail and could only move forward slowly.

He looked down at Lingmi who was not far from him. She was also sweating profusely and her cheeks were flushed. The sweat wet her hair and stuck it tightly to her cheeks, making her look even more tender and lively.

"Lingmi, hold on a little longer! We're almost at the top of the mountain. Once we get there, we can have a good rest."

"Well! Sister, you should be careful too. The mountain is steep and the rocks are jagged. You must hold on to the rocks and keep your feet steady. Don't worry about my safety anymore. I will follow you closely, don't worry! Just focus on your safety."

As soon as Ling Mi finished speaking, Hua Chao had already reached out and grasped a protruding rock with his left hand. He felt that the rock was very solid and couldn't help but feel a little relaxed.

But just as he let go of his right hand and hadn't found the next rock suitable for climbing, he felt the rock his left hand was holding suddenly fall off. He suddenly panicked and lost control of his whole body, sliding down at a high speed.

"what……"

Hua Chao screamed in fear, she was afraid that if she slipped further she would hit the spiritual honey under her feet. She quickly pressed her whole body against the abrupt rock, hoping that the friction would slow down her sliding.

"Sister, be careful! Hold on to the rocks!..."

Ling Mi was also very frightened and didn't dare to climb up anymore. She quickly slid down and hugged the cliff wall. Ling Mi only hoped that Hua Chao would collide with her when she slid down, so as to help Hua Chao slow down her sliding speed. Otherwise, she didn't know how many more injuries her sister Hua Chao would suffer if she slid down further.

In panic, Hua Chao tried hard to find something to grab.

But the rocks on the cliff are protruding, like sharp blades, which will leave deep scars if touched.

The rocks that Hua Chao slid over were stained with drops of her blood, like a thin blood-colored veil covering the steep cliff.

"Boom..."

Hua Chao tried his best not to touch Ling Mi while sliding down, but the result went against his will. In the end, Hua Chao still bumped heavily into Ling Mi, and the two of them started to slide down at the same time.

However, they could no longer take care of each other and could only try their best to control their sliding speed.

Because of this, Hua Chao and Ling Mi's sliding speed gradually slowed down. After a few tumbles, the two of them stopped sliding almost at the same time.

When they stopped, Hua Chao was still lying on top, and Ling Mi was lying behind Hua Chao.

Neither of them dared to move. They just lay quietly on the rock wall, gasping for breath.

"Ling Mi, are you okay? Are you hurt?"

Hua Chao looked down nervously and saw Ling Mi covered in wounds and her clothes were stained with blood.

"It's okay. I'm fine except for some minor skin injuries!"

Ling Mi lay close to the rock wall and twisted her body to prove that she could still move.

"Sister, are you okay? I see your foot is seriously injured!"

Hua Chao forced a smile for Ling Mi.

"Don't worry! Ling Mi, this injury won't bother me. Let's take a short rest and then we'll continue! We have to be more careful this time. Hahaha... I was careless just now!"

The two men lay on the rock wall, slowed down their breathing a little, and continued to climb up.

…………

The fox demon hovered in the air, with a black and purple light flashing under its feet. The folding fan in its hand swung back and forth, and its foxy eyes were full of playfulness.

"Hahaha... it's really interesting. Look at this pair of beauties. They are so graceful even when they are lying on the rock wall. They look so pitiful. I feel a little sorry for them...."

There was a flash of black and purple light in the fox demon's eyes, and a sinister laugh came out from between her teeth.

"Hehe... Even so, I still can't understand the hatred in my heart. I served you two delicious food and drinks, but you used cunning tricks to get me drunk and only wanted to escape from me. You two bitches who don't know your own abilities. Don't you think about whether you have the ability to escape from the palm of my hand! I will let you two know what it means to be worse than death!"

"My king, the bed has been laid out on the Cliff of Broken Souls, waiting for you to enjoy its beauty!" The tiger demon stepped forward and bowed.

"Hahaha... yes, the tiger spirit is very fast. After I have used up that little spiritual honey, I will give that little beauty to you first!"

"Thank you, Your Majesty! ..."

…………

Hua Chao stretched out his hands to grab the cliff and climbed up with difficulty. The top of the mountain was in front of him. As long as he climbed up, he would be able to stand on the top of the mountain.

But his body was already extremely tired. Even if he used all his strength, his sore arms could no longer exert any strength. His legs were weak against the rocks and he could not lift them up to continue searching upwards.

"Sister, if you really can't climb anymore, take a break first, and then climb slowly. Otherwise, it will be a waste of effort. Don't be in a hurry. Take a breath and then climb up."

Ling Mi saw Hua Chao trembling all over and knew that she was exhausted. If she continued to hold on, she would be in big trouble if she couldn't hold on. This place was steeper than the mountain they had just slid down. If she couldn't hold on and slid down again, she would be really hopeless.

"Hey!... Hey... OK, I get it. Lingmi, you should be careful too. It's a good time to take a break. Make sure you hold on to the rocks tightly. We will soon reach the top of the mountain."

"Yeah! Okay, let's just take a quiet rest first!"

After a while, Hua Chao felt that he had some strength. He took a deep breath, moved the breath to his dantian, and immediately pushed hard with his feet, then switched hands alternately.

In just a few steps, his head had emerged from the top of the cliff. He exerted force with his feet, supported his upper body with his palms, and had already crossed the top of the mountain. Then he lunged forward, and finally Hua Chao's entire body rolled forward several times on the top of the mountain.

Lying on her back on the top of the mountain, Hua Chao felt as if her body had been hollowed out and she was so tired that she couldn't move a finger.

Ling Mi followed closely behind, also rolling and crawling beside Hua Chao.

"Oh!... I'm so tired, sister! This mortal body is so useless and heavy. I'm so tired after climbing a small mountain. I don't even have the strength to move a finger. Hahaha... No wonder mortals want to cultivate and become immortals."

"Oh, you little flower fairy, you are still in the mood to joke at this time." Hua Chao panted and turned to look at Ling Mi, whose body was covered in blood from being scratched by rocks.

"Hehe! I just want to make you happy!"

Ling Mi blinked her starry eyes and forced a smile at the corners of her lips.

"Alright, we can't lie down anymore. Get up quickly and see what's going on here. Why did the fox demon drive us to this cliff?"

The two of them supported each other and staggered to their feet. When they looked at the scene in front of them again, Hua Chao and Ling Mi couldn't help but gasp!
