The sound of bells echo in the forest. The small narrow road suddenly become a fighting ground. Wang Cao's men are fighting with the attackers. Arrows are whistling in the air. Hu Li fight off the arrows to defend her servants. She command them to take the carriage and move as fast as they can. She watch them move away in safety and turn around to see Wang Cao fighting off the enemy. She rush there and knock the opponents off. He look at her with a pale face.
"We fight together. Don't fight alone."
"Eldest sister..."
"I am not the same sister you know but i always treat you as my brother from beginning to now."
Tears form in his eye but he smile and nod. Together, they fight and she knock the attackers to unconscious. Wang Cao who is fighting with his word watch with the corner of his eyes and see that Wang Ching is using bells and she is fighting with her fist and legs.
Hu Li charge with every hit to knock them unconscious. Her goal is never to kill but to injure them from moving further. She doge with every arrows aim at her direction and she knows which direction the arrows are coming from. She fights and doges as she moves nearer. She can see who is the one firing the arrows. She ring her bells and he froze on the spot.
"Who are you actually?"
"Someone that you used to love?"
"You are not my Wang Ching!"
"No matter who i am. You have to stop what you are going to do."
"You spoilt our plans!"
"It is not a plan to begin with. Either you stop or..."
"Or... i just have to kill that boy over there."
Because Hu Li is not ringing her bells as she talks to him. He is just standing there till he realised that he is able to move but he just pretending to stand still. He release the arrow on his bow. Hu Li grab the arrow on time as it flies past her. Ying Tian look in horror. He whisper
"What are you?"
"Someone that you should not see."
She rings the bells on her hand. He stay frozen so is the surrounding in this forest. That included the men who are fighting or unconscious on the ground. She walk towards Ying Tian who is still holding the bow. She takes most of the arrows out of his quiver and throw them down the cliff. She look at him with a look of dislike.
"Even though you are handsome, tall, strong. You are still not my type."
He got angry when he heard that he stare at her with his frozen body. She walk towards him still ringing the bells in her hands.
"I hope you never remember this. The sound of the bells are ... annoying."
She rings the bells again. This time he is free to move and he grab his arrow on the ground and load on his bow. With close range, he release the arrow and shot her. Wang Cao in a distance can see this and he scream for his sister. Hu Li who is prepare for this moment allow the arrow to hit her. She falls backwards and fly off the edge of the cliff. She rings the bell as she watch Wang Cao appear at the edge of the cliff. She froze whoever is near the cliff to allow people from the other side to rush to the cliff to stop a fights or harm done to Wang Cao. She watch his head disappear at the edge, he must be safe and she turn her body to face down as she falls. The fog at the cliff is thick and cover whoever is trying to see the bottom of it. She undo the pouch as she falls. Her many tails appear and the biggest one curl on to her back of her spine to her shoulder. The rat who are awake see that they are falling and Hu Li open the pouch to allow them to crawl into her bushy tail.
"Climb to my back! Hold on to my fur tightly! It is going to be a rough landing!"
She morph into her feline look. Her fox ears appear along side with her electrical eyes. Her long long human hands have change into a paw of fox. Her nails are angry with in red, long and sharp. Her hair is now white and long and flying with the force of the wind. She watch the landscape changing below her. They are coming fast to her. She estimate that she will be hit by many tree branches. She takes in many deep breath. She growl loudly as her body is reaching the top of the tree. The first hit is the worst. It broke the arrow that is shot into her chest. She cry in pain and growl again loud. Her little friends although they can't see what is happening as her fur is thick and dense but they feel the impact of her body bing hit. They scream too. Hu Li continuously keep hitting on to the tree branches as she falls and suddenly a tree branch reach out to grab her. Suddenly she did not feel the impact of the strong wind. She is wincing in pain and cannot see clearly. There is no one but why is she suspending on air. Her body is beaten with blood dripping. The tree branch is cupping her like a chair. Slowly it is descending on to the ground. Her tails are moving around her to show that she is alive even thought she is not moving nor breathing deep. Her eyes are trying to open but they fail to do so instead electricity is flickering on her eyelashes. Her mouth is open with blood tickling down on the corner. Her white hair that is covering her face is stain with her blood. The tree branch gently put her down on the ground. Her little friends come out from her tail and look at her. They did not know what to do but they hear foot steps and they turn around to see a barefooted beautiful lady standing in front of them. She is dress in a plain white long dress. Her long hair is white like Hu Li and she bun it up with a huge red flower on the side.
"Don't worry little ones. She won't die. She cannot die. She doesn't have the ability to die. Come to me."
The rats did not know what to do. They look at her again. She looks kind just like Hu Li.
"Don't worry. My name is Bai Xuan. I am just like her."
The rats look at each other again.
"My master..."
"I will bring her to a place where she can heal herself."
She smile to show her dimples.
