Chapter 446: The Beast World's Charmer (11)

A very convincing reason.

Qiao Xi accepted the invitation to be a guest, but after replenishing her spiritual power, she also suggested that she needed to go back to the forest again to reinforce the seal left by the great wizard.

Prevent the evil spirit from escaping.

Aldrich agreed and sent her back to the forest.

The mountain where the cat tribe once hunted was also filled with evil spirits. Qiao Xi purified it thoroughly when he passed by, and then came to the outskirts of the forest to reinforce the seal.

This forest has been changed by evil spirits.

It has completely become a devil's land.

The flowers, plants, and trees that took root and grew there had been tainted by the demonic energy, transforming into bloodthirsty vegetation with a strong demonic nature. As long as they absorbed a little blood, they would grow wildly.

The man deep in the forest was sleeping in the seal to heal his wounds.

Qiao Xi had no intention of looking for him.

It's not the right time yet.

She planned to meet the great wizard first and then look for the man in the forest.

When Qiao Xi re-reinforced the seal outside the forest and left with Aldridge, in the depths of the forest, the figure sealed in the center seemed to have noticed something and moved.

The handsome man was immersed in the turbid black magic liquid.

The demonic energy surging around was almost turning into substance.

The strange flowers blooming around him were ugly and twisted, but they were constantly absorbing and emitting the demonic energy he needed to repair his body.

The scars on his face have healed.

The man's stern face was calm, his narrow eyes, which had been reopened, were cold and deep, dotted with a barely perceptible dim light. He did not stand up from the pool of magic liquid.

only.

His bare, muscular torso bore not only scars from the past but also intricate and eerie patterns of dark golden magic. This was the posture that represented the manifestation of his power as a pure demon, having reached a certain level of cultivation.

Qi Yeyue raised his arms.

His slender, bony fingers were still pale, but the ends had faint, dark red marks. That was the indelible mark left after he forcibly sacrificed himself and tore through space to save the Demon Lord.

At first.

The person regarded as the princess by the entire demon clan personally exiled the Demon Lord to the endless void. The power of time existing in the turbulence of time and space will corrode and devour life. Qi Yeyue is the first general under the Demon Lord.

After witnessing such a scene in person.

After simply settling the demons, he sacrificed his own blood to forcibly tear space apart in an attempt to find the Demon Lord in the turbulent flow of time and space. However, he did not find him.

Instead, I came to this strange and wild world.

Due to severe injuries, Qi Yeyue lost consciousness when he first came here.

At that time.

This world lacked even a single living being, only pure and abundant spiritual energy. Where Qi Yeyue slept, a forest even quietly formed over the passage of time.

The demons have strong physiques.

Even though Xueji's own meridians were severed, his injuries were gradually healed during his century-long slumber. He even found a blessing in disguise and took a step he had been hesitant to take.

The civilization of this world.

Born from repeated wars, those barbaric, unintelligent, and inferior demons were no match for even the weakest demons in the spiritual world. Until later, the rift in time and space in this world opened again.

A new life has come.

That new life imparted knowledge and experience to them, allowing these inferior monsters to begin to learn to speak, learn the foreign language, and use foreign names.

What they said when they talked.

Qi Yeyue couldn't understand him because he was speaking the ancient language of the demons. Even the common language of the spirit world was incomprehensible to these inferior beasts.

The knowledge they receive.

It was brought by a new life that accidentally tore through space and came into this world.

later.

They seemed to worship that new life as a great wizard, and when that new life came to this world, the world barrier was torn apart, and the laws and spiritual power were disordered.

Also take this as an opportunity.

Qi Yeyue woke up.

He was healing, and the new life later sensed his existence and sealed the forest he was in. Qi Yeyue himself was trying to prevent some insignificant orcs from breaking in.

An illusion array was also set up here.

As his body gradually recovered, the already transformed environment also became active. A large amount of demonic energy was born and spread, and some of it quietly crossed the seal.

Also crossed the barrier.

Without his knowledge, the outside world was quietly infected.

Until that new life comes.

He didn't go too deep into the forest; he simply built a stronger barrier. Compared to the past, Qi Yeyue could even feel that the power of the new life was far less powerful than when he first came into this world.

He seemed to be out of tune with spiritual energy.

As hundreds of years passed, the strange power in him was gradually worn away by time.

I'm afraid it won't take twenty years.

The new life that loses its power will become a complete useless person.

Qi Yeyue didn't care.

He also controlled his demonic energy, never setting foot outside the forest. Over a decade passed peacefully, until... that aura appeared, a barely perceptible spiritual power.

Buried deep in memory.

The past buried in my mind was awakened one by one.

Gradually, all the sealed emotions and thoughts were brought back, allowing him, who had been numb for a hundred years, to finally feel a little more real.

……princess.

The two words that lingered in his mind were his lingering dreams, his inner demons, and the person he could never reach in his lifetime.

But.

She appears here now.

Qi Yeyue felt her aura, which was extremely weak. It was even less than one ten-thousandth of her original spiritual power, so weak.

Qi Yeyue obeys the Demon Lord.

As she was once the Demon Lord's woman, Qi Yeyue should not have any romantic thoughts, nor would he betray his master. And after she exiled the Demon Lord, he should avenge him.

only.

The strength at that time was not on the same level.

She became the Way of Heaven, the one who governs life and death. She even transformed herself into the Way, constructing a new and vast system of reincarnation. Why, then, did she appear here?

And he became... so weak.

Qi Yeyue lowered his eyes, absorbing the fragmented light that passed through them, gathering all his thoughts. His dark, still eyes were as deep as a cold pond. A hundred years had passed since he came to this world, and he was completely unaware of the passage of time in his original world.

Also because.

He is no longer in that world and can no longer be considered a person of that world. As for everything that happened later, what will be the final outcome for Qiao Xi?

I don't know how it got completely off track.

The other side.

Qiao Xi has already left with Aldridge.

"You want to see the Great Wizard?"

When Aldrich flew back to the Grey Eagle Tribe with her on his back, he also sounded a little surprised when he heard her say this.

He then transformed into a human form and thought for a moment.

Aldridge continued.

"Now, it is the turn of the White Snake Tribe to protect the Great Wizard."

They are three major tribes.

Every once in a while, they would take turns sending warriors from the tribe to protect the great wizard at the foot of the mountain where he lived, to prevent strange beasts from disturbing him.

There are some small tribes of people.

Knowing where the great wizard is, they would want to come here to meet him, or ask him to give them the power to become powerful.

To these irrational orcs.

Usually they will just drive away.

In addition, there are many poisonous creatures on the Great Wizard's mountain. People who are not familiar with the road may die if they enter the mountain without being careful.

therefore.

The three major tribes took turns sending people from their tribes to protect the mountain where the great wizard was. This was not only to prevent strange beasts, but also to stop the people from the small tribes with whimsical ideas.

It is still necessary to do this.

The people from the Black Wolf Tribe were on duty a few days ago, and only yesterday were people from the White Snake Tribe on duty.

Want to meet the great wizard.

Then we have to get in right under the noses of the White Snake Tribe.

Aldrich didn't really want to expose Qiao Xi's existence, just like when August first started receiving him and deliberately concealed the news about Qiao Xi.

Learn that Qiao Xi has a special identity.

Naturally, he didn't want Qiao Xi to be exposed.

Moreover, Aldridge lied. If he took Qiao Xi to see the Great Wizard, the people of the White Snake Tribe would know. Moreover, when the Black Wolf Tribe and the White Snake Tribe communicated, what if they exchanged information?

Let August know that Qiao Xi did not actually leave directly.

Instead, he came to visit the Grey Eagle Tribe.

No matter what the reason.

He had deceived the leader of the Black Wolf Tribe, and this insincere communication could be used as an excuse for the other party to declare war.

after all.

What the Great Wizard advocates is for them to be more frank and sincere, more tolerant and peaceful.

There is a great wizard here.

Only then was their inherent warlike nature brought under control, bringing the long-lasting war to a complete end.

but.

If one of these rules is violated, a tribe will feel deceived or betrayed and will be very angry.

You can also apply to declare war.

The Black Wolf and White Snake tribes recently reached their quarterly material exchange period. The White Snake tribe had many rare and exotic herbs. Although they were all fanatical believers, they were indeed able to learn the great wizard's pharmacological knowledge most thoroughly.

Even the use of poison is true.

Dealing with those shady and cunning guys.

It is not surprising to be stabbed in the back after being betrayed by the other party, so Aldridge does not really agree with Qiao Xi going to see the great wizard now.

After hearing this, Qiao Xi did not insist any more.

Aldrich didn't want her to go.

He was probably worried that if she were with the Eagle Tribe, it would expose the Eagle Tribe. In fact, he was also considering his own Grey Eagle Tribe.

As a leader.

It's normal for them to think about their own tribe and not want to cause disputes or get into trouble.

Qiao Xi originally planned to.

After leaving the Grey Eagle Tribe, he went to see the great wizard himself.

but.

Now that I heard there are still people on duty, things become a little bit troublesome.

If you know the route.

It was not difficult for her to get in without being seen by the guards.

therefore.

When Aldrich wanted to treat her to a feast to express his gratitude, Qiao Xi politely declined, saying that she only needed a map to the mountain where the great wizard was as a thank you gift.

Although surprised.

But Aldridge gave it anyway.

After all, Qiao Xi saved him and his people. Even if Qiao Xi wanted a year's supply of food from their Grey Eagle tribe, he would not hesitate at all.

after all.

Those who went to the forest this time were all elite members of the Grey Eagle Tribe.

If they were all lost there.

For the Grey Eagle Tribe, their position as the overlord of the skies was becoming less secure, and those who were ready to make a move would seek to replace the Grey Eagle Tribe.

Route map is provided.

But the celebration party must continue.

The Grey Eagle Tribe occupied the largest piece of the floating continent in the suspended territory. This was the center of their abode, the place closest to the clouds.

It is also very far away from the ground.

They build their nests here.

The Eagle people who returned safely knew that their chief and the strongest warrior in the tribe had been saved by a magical creature.

What is a living being?

The rest of the Grey Eagle tribe members actually didn't know very well either.

But the strong warriors who were rescued said.

The creature was as powerful as a great wizard, possessing terrifying strength. It could easily crush the hardest stone and lift the heaviest weight. It could freely travel through forbidden areas and rescue them all safely.

Listen to the soldiers' descriptions.

The members of the Grey Eagle tribe were all excited.

What a terrifying power this is!

Just like the legends from many years ago, the great wizard appeared out of nowhere and put an end to the war with his own strength.

Have witnessed it before.

The elderly tribesmen who are still alive are filled with awe when they recall the great wizard of that battle.

They have been since birth.

They grew up listening to these stories, and the Eagle Clan highly respected powerful strength and believed in all the legends of the great wizard.

Plus.

During the great disease epidemic more than a decade ago, the actions of the great wizard also deeply shocked them.

It was a power they had never seen before.

But now.

The clan leader and the warriors brought back a creature that was comparable to a great wizard!

All the Eagles were very excited.

They couldn't wait to meet this powerful creature, so they took out the best meat and the most fragrant wine in the tribe to entertain him.

The Grey Eagle Tribe is very lively tonight.

Qiao Xi was living in the small house that Aldridge arranged for her to live in temporarily.

You can also hear the hustle and bustle outside.

In the dim little house.

The tightly closed wooden door did not let any light from outside in. Aldridge took her slender wrist and stroked her snow-white and delicate skin, pushing her against the wall without saying a word.

“……?”

Qiao Xi looked at his strange behavior.

He also noticed the huge wings behind Aldridge, which had unfolded at some unknown time.

They are able to take human form.

It is considered one of the most perfectly evolved races.

Basically, there will be no behavior that will cause one to be unable to control oneself and reveal one's original animal characteristics.

Those who are not perfectly evolved small tribes.

Only then will it appear in the form of a half-human, half-beast orc.

Aldridge belongs to the Eagle tribe.

He was the leader of the perfectly evolved Grey Eagle Tribe, but after seeing her in her adult form, he noticed something was wrong with his body, his thoughts began to stir, and he inexplicably began to feel hot and irritated.

Such a situation.

It's very similar to when the evil spirit has not been eliminated.

He will become unlike himself.

therefore.

Aldridge grabbed Qiao Xi's wrist and pushed her against the wall. In the dim little room, his sharp, cold gaze shed its former arrogance and indifference, becoming softer, with a slight surge of emotion.

"My evil spirit has not been completely eliminated."

Aldrich pulled her wrist down.

As if he wanted Qiao Xi to personally verify the feeling, he let the girl's hand rest on him.

"It's been cleaned."

Qiao Xi didn't touch him, but retracted her hand and pushed him away.

"Then why does it feel weird?"

Aldridge didn't quite understand the changes that were happening to him. This feeling of being out of control was something he had never experienced before.

He is restless.

Even the wings were vibrating slightly, as if trying to flap.

It's like.

It was like being wrapped in some sticky fungi with mucus in the sea. This strange and uncomfortable feeling made him feel both novel and strange.

"Maybe you're in your breeding season."

Qiao Xi pushed him away a little and said this when she noticed the gradually getting heavier atmosphere in the room.

"Breeding season? I know that."

Aldridge sat aside with her, but still held her wrist and wanted to half-hold Qiao Xi in his arms.

Sticky doesn't want to be separated from her.

I have heard before that our ancestors reproduced in order to survive, and there was a breeding season at every time of the year.

but.

As they began to evolve, this symptom gradually began to degenerate and disappear.

Until the birth of the tree of life.

There was no such statement anymore.

The task of nurturing offspring is left to the Tree of Life. They only need to provide their own blood to obtain a fruit that is connected to their bloodline.

Then.

You just need to wait for the fruit to grow and become a young beast, then you can bring it back to the tribe and start cultivating it.

As time goes by.

Naturally, this instinct was gradually forgotten by them.

Until we reconnect.

The forgotten instincts are gradually awakened, and what is gained after being suppressed for a long time is far from being controllable in a short period of time.

Once the rules are broken.

It will become out of control.

Qiao Xi's adult female form was an irresistible attraction to Aldridge. Furthermore, she was so wild and unrestrained when she was possessed by the demonic energy.

This period of his reproductive period.

It will definitely last longer.

Obviously.

He now vaguely realized his current state, so he did not act rashly. He just hugged the girl behind Qiao Xi without saying a word.

His strong arms were wrapped around her slender waist.

Feeling greedy.

The rich aroma of 'food' emanated from her, mixed with a faint unknown fragrance.

Slender and soft body.

For Aldridge, the snow-white and delicate skin is an extremely tempting "delicacy" in front of him.

He gradually became less like himself.

Body temperature begins to rise.

The strange feeling of discomfort became more and more intense, and when he held Qiao Xi in his arms, he would occasionally feel dazed and want to go over and eat Qiao Xi.

His outstretched wings folded.

It completely blocked Qiao Xi's sight and hid the girl between his huge wings.

Only darkness remained.

There was a slight glint in Qiao Ximei's eyes, and she raised her head and looked curiously at the plump wings covering her from behind.

She raised her hand.

Touched it lightly.

Feathers grow on the sturdy wings one by one. When you touch them, you can feel the distinct layers of feathers, sliding across your fingertips.

only.

Having her wings touched like this was a completely different experience for Aldridge.

Soft fingertips glided over the feathers.

The sturdy wings brushed against his back, sending a swift, electric-like sensation that nearly forced him to retract his wings.

Usually touch the feathers yourself.

That's not the case.

"It's so hot." Feeling his temperature, Qiao Xi muttered and withdrew her hand.

She doesn't like it to be too hot.

In her current identity, she felt like she was about to melt. After all, as a creature born from the snow, she naturally didn't like such scorching temperatures.

"I know."

Aldridge leaned closer, and the man's hand around her waist also came up and stroked her head.

Pull Qiao Xi over here.

Aldridge leaned over slightly and kissed her cold lips.

Hot breaths intertwined.

In order to warm up her cold self, the celebratory banquet was already being prepared, and the noisy sounds outside also foreshadowed the grand dinner that was about to begin.

so.

Not now.

Aldridge knew that once he started to take, he would be unable to stop, so he just tasted her soft and cold lips and plundered some of the wonderful breath from them.

A tangled kiss.

The breaths intertwined in ambiguity, and the gradually heavier breath.

All the time.

It no longer highlights the unrest at this moment.

In the darkness, Aldridge's indifferent eyes were tinged with a hint of aroused emotion. He savored the brief, gentle, clumsy feeling, craving for this beauty.

He leaned forward.

He couldn't help but hold Qiao Xi's hand, and also let the girl's slender arms wrap around his neck, deepening the kiss. The huge wings spread out, completely covering the two of them.

Outside.

It was the somewhat doubtful voice of an Eagle tribe member, coming from the closed wooden door.

"Have you seen the patriarch?"

"I haven't seen it. So what kind of exotic animal meat do living creatures like to eat? What kind of food should we prepare?"

"I don't know. You should ask the clan leader about this."

The intermittent voices of the Eagle people's worries came from outside.

"Let's find the clan leader."

"Oh, I just seemed to sense a presence here..."

The sound came from far away.

It seems to be coming this way.

In the dark little room, Aldridge was still pressing against her, entwining his wings in a kiss. The voices of the tribesmen outside not only didn't stop him, but seemed to have aroused his competitive spirit, and he insisted on dragging Qiao Xi into a tangle.

Qiao Xi's beautiful eyes narrowed slightly.

Reach out and push away the increasingly restless eagle.

"The breath has been covered up."

Aldridge's lips separated from hers, and his slightly hoarse and low voice contained an unconcealable emotion.

Slightly disordered breathing.

His eyes, which had faded and were no longer as cold, were staring at Qiao Xi intently.

He said.

"There's still some time before the celebration party officially begins."

He leaned over.

His warm lips touched the girl's slightly cool neck and lingered there. His restrained and hoarse voice also fell into Qiao Xi's ears: "Before that, just give me a little more time."
