Chapter 49: Testing - Part 3.

She had to try hard not to give up. What made her prevail was the fact that she wanted to be strong enough to fight side by side with Luan. Ingrid bit her bottom lip hard until it bled. She shouted, "I will... get over this! I will control this blood!!"

Her scream came out like a scream from a banshee and the blood around her spread for a second, but soon it was around her again, torturing her.

Luan, who was about to destroy the orb, seeing Ingrid's determined cry, restrengthened his will and supported her decision.

10 minutes passed. Ingrid was already speechless from screaming so much in pain, but at no time did she give up; her will was greater than Emperor Shen had expected.

This surprised even Luan, who often wanted to destroy the orb, but he did not, as it would go against Ingrid's will and all the effort and sacrifice she made to endure so long would then be in vain.
