The cat, which had been running away at the sight of a fox, had just turned around when Hu Xian darted forward, grabbed it by the scruff of its neck, and pulled it to the spot: "The dried fish is stewing in the pot, you don't need to watch the fire, why are you running?"

Si Mubei was grabbed by the scruff of his neck, just like a big cat being held by the scruff of its neck, with only its front and hind paws flailing about: "Let me go, you dead fox, don't force me to slap you."

Hu Xian let out a soft "plop" and released him.

Now free, Si Mubei moved nimbly, leaping several meters away from Hu Xian in her high heels. With her long, wavy red hair, bright red lips, and wide, round eyes, she stared at Hu Xian.

Hu Xian: "..."

Oh no, I forgot to spray some catnip on myself!

Ginger shreds: "..."

It's just a fox named Hu Xian that will turn from an ethereal white fox into an ugly fox when the time comes. Is it really necessary for this Tibetan fox-orange hybrid to be so afraid?

The hatch of the Blue Star was fully opened, revealing everyone behind it. Yan Qi was already wearing a hat, mask, sunglasses, a bag, and boots. His hair, which reached his neck, was loose, and he looked incredibly cool.

Wei Chi's eyes nearly popped out of his head. In such a trivial moment as opening the hatch, his teacher hadn't even revealed his fake eyes. No wonder he was General Bo Jichen's classmate and friend; he was incredibly impressive and admirable.

"Kitty, kitty!" Jiang Yinuo stretched out her little arms and called out to Si Mubei in a childish voice.

"Fox, fox!" Jiang Yihe, dressed in a little princess dress and wearing a small crown, corrected and reminded Jiang Yinuo with a serious face, "That's a fox, a fox, a big-faced fox."

Ginger shreds: "..."

Wow, her two kids are amazing! They saw right through her immediately. Big Fat Orange is a hybrid of a Tibetan fox and a big fat orange!

Yan Liu glanced at Si Mu Bei in the distance. The two children actually raised their hands and called out to him, so she pushed the two children off the spaceship.

As the owner of the spaceship, Jiang Si Agares gestured to the others to invite them.

Quanjian really wanted to ask Hu Xian, as a prophet of the orc race, how he knew the people of the Red Eyebrows Fleet. Was there some gossip involved?

Upon meeting the gaze of her high priest, she immediately cowered, daring not to ask or say anything, and followed her high priest off the spaceship.

As he walked towards the spring, he noticed that his High Priest's gaze was fixed on Yan Liu, like a lovesick fool. Only he himself was unaware of it, completely oblivious to it.

When Wei Chi saw his teacher leave, he called Hu Xian to follow him down.

Seeing that everyone had left, the boneless Shu Xubai straightened up, took advantage of being taller than Jiu Feng, put his hand on Jiu Feng's shoulder, and walked down like a proud peacock with his head held high.

Agares led Jiang Si down as well. After they had all gone down, the doors of the Blue Star closed again, and the Blue Star entered a state of silence at the Earth space station.

"Why aren't you moving?" After Jiang Si came down, she saw Shu Xubai standing still and asked him, "Aren't you going to go and see what the infrastructure Yuan Yigun did for me looks like?"

“There will be plenty of opportunities to see it later!” Shu Xubai grinned and said, “I said I would take Little Phoenix out for a stroll after I sent you back to Earth. Now that you have arrived on Earth and are safe, I will take Little Phoenix to see the stars, to search for the edge of the universe, and to see the desolate secret realm.”

Jiang Si's eyes darkened: "Leaving now?"

“Yes, Your Highness Jiang Jiang.” Jiu Feng said softly, “I want to see the shimmering purple starlight of the Lily of the Valley Star System, and I also want to go to the Circular Star System to search for treasures.”

"I've also heard from others that the infinite universe has boundaries and can be reached, and only those with the right destiny can see it. I also want to go and find it. There are also desolate secret realms in the universe. I've heard that there are various gemstone mountains there, as well as the gold mountains that Earthlings used to like. I also want to go and see them."

He also wanted to see the places he mentioned, but with his short lifespan of less than a year, he simply couldn't possibly see them all.

He didn't want to live anymore; he wanted to die. He went to these places with no intention of coming back; he planned to die outside, on the road.

She had told him that as long as he wasn't afraid of pain or hardship, she could extend his life. Now, listening to him, he didn't want to extend her life anymore.

"Old Bai, wait a moment!" Jiang Si said to Shu Xubai, then said to Jiu Feng, "Your Excellency Jiu Feng, please come over here for a moment, I have something to say to you."

Shu Xubai was displeased: "Why can't you say it to my face? Why do you have to whisper it to me? You stinky zombie, whose child are you anyway?"

Jiang Si glared at him sharply: "Anyway, it's not your child. You either wait here or get lost. Why are you spouting so much nonsense!"

Shu Xubai, displeased, muttered, "Why is she being so fierce? She's like a man-eating flower. Agares should dump her and find someone gentle, beautiful, and generous!"

Agares' handsome face was cold and serious as he replied to Shu Xubai, "Thank you for your kind advice and reminder, Lord Shu Xubai. I only love her and have no intention of changing wives."

Shu Xubai: "!!!!"

Look and listen, what are you saying?

A classic case of being love-struck.

But what exactly did that stinky zombie say to his little phoenix?

Shu Xubai pricked up his ears, mobilized his mental energy, and tried to listen attentively, but found that Jiang Si's mental energy shielded the two of them, blocking their voices. He couldn't hear them unless he broke through her mental energy shield.

However, if the mental barrier is broken, he will be discovered, and it will be discovered that he was eavesdropping, which is not good for his elegant and noble vampire persona.

Jiang Si asked Jiu Feng in a calm voice, "You want to die. You have no desire to live at all!"

Jiufeng glanced sideways at Shu Xubai, who was practically scratching his head in frustration: "No, I didn't want to die. I'm just trying to make the most of every day I have left."

Jiang Si sneered and corrected him: "No, you don't want to live each day well, you want to die when you and Shu Xubai are at your happiest."

"Jiufeng, you don't want to live, you want to die. You have no desire to live at all. You did it on purpose, you deliberately chose to die while traveling with Shu Xubai. You wanted him to remember you, to remember you for all eternity, until he dies!"

Jiufeng remained silent, her lips moved but she didn't say anything, as if she had admitted it or acquiesced, without uttering a single word in rebuttal.

Jiang Si stepped forward: "Why, Jiu Feng? Just a few days ago you told me to help you escape from him, because you didn't want him to lie in the coffin after you died, holding your bones like a pitiful wretch."

"Today, you know that I have the ability to extend your life, although not by 10 or 8 years, but by one or two years. You have given up, completely given up."

“Jiufeng, you have given up hope of living. You don’t want to live anymore. You have no attachment to Shu Xubai, the only person in the world who was good to you.”

Jiufeng's eyes flashed, then suddenly turned deathly still. A sorrowful smile appeared on her lips as she said, "Your Highness, Jiang Jiang, you can prolong my life for another two years. After two years, I will still have to die."

"So I've figured it out. There's not much difference between living two more years or two less. Since I've already glimpsed my own future, Shu Xubai's future, in my dreams and calculations, I should face it bravely, not run away from it."

"Since he's going to suffer anyway, feel heartbroken, be miserable, and never forget me, I'll be selfish and make sure he never forgets me."

"He can't forget me, what can he do? He's just unlucky. He only found one delicious meal like me!"

Jiang Si's heart skipped a beat: "You..."

Jiufeng's smile grew wider and wider. Although she was smiling, the corners of her eyes were red, and her eyes were filled with a heartbreaking sadness. "I am fine, Princess Jiang Jiang. I am fine. I have come this far, I have lived to this day. I do not blame anyone, nor do I blame the gods."

"I even have to thank the gods, thank the gods for making me feel that I am not worthless, thank the gods for making my flesh and blood still loved by someone."

Looking at him like this and hearing his words, Jiang Si couldn't help but feel a lump in her throat. It was as if Jiu Feng himself hadn't done anything wrong, but the things he had encountered and experienced were closely related to him, something he couldn't escape, something that had drawn him into it.

From the time he was old enough to understand, he was instilled by his tribe with the idea of ​​striving for the longevity of the tribe, which caused his mate, whom he had personally hatched, to abandon him. He searched for her for decades but could not find her.

Then his people betrayed him in their quest for immortality, wanting to devour him. If she hadn't gone to save Shu Xubai and incidentally destroyed the Phoenix Clan, he would probably have died long ago.

He finally came to terms with it, and Shu Xubai treated him like food, but he was genuinely good to him, thinking he could finally live a good life. But then his spirit betrayed him.

His proud spiritual entity, which he believed would never betray him, betrayed him, and that was the last straw that broke him.

He felt that even his inseparable spiritual entity, which symbolized his second self, could betray him. So who else could not betray him? And who else could stand on his side?

Jiang Si sighed softly. Jiu Feng was truly a typical second male lead. He had everything from birth—status, wealth, and good looks—yet he couldn't get anything. He was unlucky and got nothing.

"Thank you, Your Highness Jiang Jiang!" Jiu Feng bowed, her eyebrows curving slightly as she smiled at her. "You are a strong and kind person. Thank you for giving me a year of life. I can use this year to do many, many things."

"My life, my life, is not short. I am very happy that I can have such a life, such a brilliant life."

"Oh, by the way, you can call it 'Dad.' After I'm gone, please tell it for me: I'm sorry!"

The "it" he was referring to was the Azure Dragon he had hatched, the companion he had nurtured with love, the companion he planned to make fall in love with him and then devour, the one he had been searching for for decades but had not found, yet was now right before his eyes, in the public eye, the person famous in the Abel Galaxy!

Jiang Si's fingers twitched slightly, slowly tightening into a fist: "Fine, you've thought it through. There's no point in me saying anything more or trying to persuade you. After you die, I'll convey your 'I'm sorry' to him!"

Jiufeng bent her waist slightly again: "Thank you, take care, farewell forever."

The words "never again" were too heavy for Jiang Si to bear. She opened her mouth but didn't say them. Instead, she watched him walk out of her mental shield and happily walk towards Shu Xubai.

He walked up to Shu Xubai, took his hand, and led him directly to a nearby spaceship, not giving Shu Xubai a chance to say goodbye to Jiang Si.

Jiang Si looked at them, watched them go, cut her wrist, took out a cup, stuck it on her wrist, and began to collect the blood.

Agares strode over. Although he didn't know why she had cut her wrist, he felt sorry for her when he saw blood flowing into the cup, but he didn't stop her.

Once the cup was full of blood, he took out a healing spray and sprayed it onto her wrist. The healing spray, specially formulated for ginger, caused her wound to heal quickly when sprayed onto her wrist.

Once the bleeding from the wound stopped, Jiang Si turned around and went to chase after Shu Xu and Bai Jiufeng.

They had already stepped onto the ramp leading to their own spaceship.

Jiang Si stuffed the cup full of blood into a spatial button, held it up to Shu Xubai and shouted, "You old bastard!"

Shu Xubai turned his head upon hearing the sound, his voice reflexively sharp: "What?"

Jiang Si tossed the spatial button in her hand: "There are several hundred pounds of fruits and vegetables in here, for Jiu Feng to eat. You take it."

Shu Xubai reached out and took the spatial button, smiling with his sharp white teeth: "Thanks. Remember to have that round, rich beast build me a castle, and use golden nanmu wood and fine jade to make two coffins for me to put in the castle. I'll come back to inspect them."

Jiang Si said without getting angry, "Golden nanmu wood, and top-quality jade? You must be sleeping standing up in broad daylight, with your pillow not high enough to keep you dreaming!"

"No, no, there won't be a castle, there won't be a coffin, nothing at all!"

Shu Xubai snorted coldly: "A noble and elegant vampire lord will not sleep anywhere but in a fine jade coffin or a golden nanmu coffin. If you don't make one for me, I will never come back. You'll regret it!"

"Get out, get out, get out of here right now!" Jiang Si was amused by him and concentrated her spiritual power to blast him: "Don't come back, never come back, I hate seeing you!"

Shu Xubai saw the mental energy ball coming towards him and grabbed Jiu Feng, running away: "Little Phoenix, Little Phoenix, run, run! The stinky zombie is angry and has gone mad!"

As Jiufeng was being pulled along, she didn't forget to glance back at Jiang Si, and silently moved the corners of her mouth.

From the movement of his lips, Jiang Si could make out two words: "Thank you!"

What's there to thank? She can't let him live for another 10 or 8 years, so what's there to thank her for?

The two rushed into their spaceship, which was a coat smaller than the Blue Star.

The hatch closed, the spaceship started up, took off, and slowly disappeared into the horizon.

Even though they were no longer visible, Jiang Si was still standing with her head held high.

Agares walked to her side and put his arm around her shoulder: "May I ask why you gave Lord Shu Xubai his blood? What's wrong with Lord Jiufeng?"

Jiang Si lowered her eyes, closed them briefly, then opened them again, turning her head to look at Agares: "Jiufeng has lost his spiritual body and destroyed his contract with Shu Xubai. His life is now on a countdown."

Agares' pupils contracted slightly: "Does Lord Shu Xubai not know that his life is already on its last countdown?"

Jiang Si said with a slight hint of disappointment, "Maybe he knows, but pretends not to, or maybe he doesn't know at all, as long as he's happy!"

"Your blood is for Lord Jiufeng?" Agares asked. "Your blood can prolong his life, allow him to live longer, right?"

Jiang Si looked at him and didn't hide anything: "My blood can keep Shu Xubai alive and heal his wounds. Apart from him, anyone who is dying can drink my blood and stay alive for another ten days or so, or even half a month!"

"However, my blood is also domineering. A dying person who drinks my blood can live for a few more days, but when they die, they will suffer extremely painful death."

"I'm afraid Shu Xubai doesn't know that Jiufeng only has less than a year to live. I'm afraid he has too many things he hasn't said to Jiufeng, so I gave him my blood, hoping to give them some time to talk and make up for any regrets that may exist in the future!"
