From cannon fodder villain to superpowered queen

"Yao Yao, be careful!" Jiang Ruiyuan's voice echoed in the air, but the black light was already close at hand.

The black light, like the claws of an evil god, struck Bi Yao with lightning speed.

Bi Yao's delicate body was struck as if by lightning, and she trembled violently before flying backward.

Her body traced an arc in the air before crashing heavily to the ground, raising a cloud of dust.

Jiang Ruiyuan was extremely anxious, and a hint of despair flashed in his eyes.

He rushed towards Bi Yao without hesitation, knelt on one knee, and held her shoulders with trembling hands.

Bi Yao's face was as pale as paper, with fine beads of sweat on her forehead and a trace of blood at the corner of her mouth.

Her vision gradually blurred, as if she might lose consciousness at any moment.

"Yaoyao, hang in there, hang in there!" Jiang Ruiyuan's voice was filled with urgency and worry, as if she were the only irreplaceable person in the world.

Everything around seemed to have turned gray because of Bi Yao's injury.

The once lush forest has turned yellow and withered, and the wind rustles through it like a lament.

The stones on the ground seemed to have lost their luster, and a depressing atmosphere filled the air.

Bi Yao felt her power gradually dissipating under the erosion of the black light, as if an invisible dark force was devouring her life force.

Her body trembled uncontrollably, and her heart was filled with helplessness.

As her consciousness faded, she forced a bitter smile and whispered, "Jiang Ruiyuan, perhaps this is my fate..."

The surrounding black power seemed to be raging even more fiercely, and the air was filled with a putrid smell.

Bi Yao's eyelashes trembled slightly as she tried to open her eyes wide, but the aftershocks of that black light were still raging within her, as if trying to completely engulf her.

"No! I won't let you fall like this!" Jiang Ruiyuan's voice was firm and powerful, his eyes revealing endless determination.

He took a deep breath, slowly stretched out his hand, and gathered the power within his body into his palm.

Just then, Bi Yao's fingers twitched slightly. With her last bit of strength, she gripped Jiang Ruiyuan's clothes tightly.

"Believe me, we will definitely get through this crisis." Jiang Ruiyuan's voice was like a ray of light, piercing through the darkness and igniting a glimmer of hope in Bi Yao's heart.

A dazzling golden light emanated from Jiang Ruiyuan's palm, dispelling the surrounding gloom like the blazing sun.

The golden light contained a surging power, as if it could tear apart the void and awe all things.

He gritted his teeth and poured all his power into Bi Yao's body.

Golden light flowed from his palm into Bi Yao's body, like golden threads weaving across her pale skin, shimmering with a sacred glow.

Bi Yao felt a warm and powerful force surge into her body, dispelling the cold and darkness within.

A glimmer of hope finally appeared on her weak face, and the corners of her mouth turned up slightly, as if she had seen a ray of light in the darkness.

"Don't be afraid, I'm here." Jiang Ruiyuan's voice was deep and firm, like an unbreakable barrier, providing Bi Yao with a safe haven.

The power within him flowed continuously, causing the surrounding air to fluctuate violently, as if it were about to shatter the space itself.

However, just as a glimmer of hope was blooming around them, countless dark creatures once again surged out of the black rift. They were like demons crawling out of hell, their twisted bodies covered with spikes and scales, their eyes gleaming with bloodlust.

They roared and howled, brandishing their sharp claws and teeth, and attacked Bi Yao and Jiang Ruiyuan in a massive, overwhelming frenzy.

These guys were clearly taking advantage of Bi Yao's injury to try and devour them all at once.

"Damn it, these scumbags really know how to pick their timing!" Jiang Ruiyuan roared, shielding Bi Yao behind him.

He was simultaneously channeling his inner power to form a golden barrier to defend against the dark creatures' attacks, while also diverting his attention to channeling power to Bi Yao. The situation was extremely critical.

He swung his fists, each strike carrying the power to split mountains and shatter rocks, blasting the dark creatures charging at the forefront into pieces.

However, the number of enemies was simply too great, seemingly endless, and they kept rushing towards them one after another.

Jiang Ruiyuan also began to show signs of injury, but the determination in his eyes grew stronger, as if he wanted to completely annihilate this group of dark creatures.

Just as he was locked in fierce combat with the dark creature, Bi Yao suddenly grabbed his arm, her voice weak but carrying an undeniable strength: "I...can do it..."

Bi Yao gritted her teeth and stood up, trembling.

Jiang Ruiyuan's power surged within her, like a warm current, dispelling the encroaching darkness.

She took a deep breath, feeling the awakening of her special physique, as if a sleeping dragon was awakening.

The surrounding dark forces, which were originally a deadly threat, now seemed like a delicious delicacy, attracting her.

"Yaoyao, you..." Jiang Ruiyuan looked at her with concern, but before he could finish speaking, he was stunned by the scene before him.

Bi Yao's body radiated a dazzling light, like a small sun illuminating the area shrouded in darkness.

She stretched out her hand, and a rapidly spinning vortex appeared in her palm, frantically absorbing the surrounding dark power.

Those originally menacing dark creatures, as if they had seen a ghost, desperately tried to escape, but were firmly locked in by the vortex's suction force, and eventually turned into specks of starlight, merging into Bi Yao's body.

"666, that was an amazing move!" Jiang Ruiyuan couldn't help but give Bi Yao a thumbs up in his heart.

This isn't just being in danger, it's practically mowing down enemies like a mowing-down machine!

As Bi Yao absorbed more and more dark power, the light emanating from her body grew ever brighter.

Ultimately, these rays of light formed a huge golden shield around her and Jiang Ruiyuan, protecting them firmly within it.

The dark creatures that were still wandering in the distance crashed into the shield as if they had hit an invisible wall, making muffled "bang" sounds before bouncing away powerlessly.

Inside the shield, Jiang Ruiyuan held Bi Yao tightly, afraid that she would be hurt again.

Their eyes met, filled with affection and trust.

In this world shrouded in darkness, they relied on each other, becoming each other's only support.

The air around them seemed to warm up a little because of their feelings, dispelling some of the cold and fear.

"Yaoyao, I'm so glad you're alright." Jiang Ruiyuan's voice trembled slightly as he held Bi Yao tightly, as if trying to meld her into his own body.

Bi Yao hugged him tightly, feeling his warmth and strength, and her heart was filled with a sense of security.

“Hmm, let’s go together…” Before Bi Yao could finish speaking, she was stunned by what she saw.

The dark forces in the distance did not dissipate because of their counterattack. Instead, they began to rapidly gather, forming a huge black sphere that slowly rotated in the air, emitting a chilling energy fluctuation.

“This…” Jiang Ruiyuan also noticed the huge dark sphere, and his expression instantly turned serious. “This thing doesn’t look good…”
