In his past life, Rongrong controlled him, and he, unaware of this, spent his entire life as her devoted follower.
Having finally escaped my destiny in this life, I was pulled back by someone else.
"Damn Vulcan...it's all your fault...it's all your fault!" he roared through gritted teeth. Suddenly, the witch doctor's little cave shook violently, the wooden planks of the cages broke, and small animals crawled out and scrambled everywhere.
Zhao Xi, unable to stand steadily, stumbled and ran towards the exit. She had only taken a few steps when Xingye pounced on her like a hawk and knocked her to the ground.
"Hoshino, wake up! I'm not Rongrong, I'm Zhao Xixiang!"
I'm going to kill you!
"Mommy! You bad guy, let go of Mommy!" Little Ruri popped out and punched and kicked Hoshino, spraying him with flames.
But Hoshino did not loosen his fist.
Zhao Xi felt like her heart was being crushed by his pressure. She gripped Xingye's wrist tightly and forcefully pried his hand to the side.
His eyes were so fierce; he really wanted to kill her.
"Hoshino, I don't remember the past... For the sake of the care I gave you... I'm just a mortal!" Zhao Xi wanted to laugh and cry at the same time, and squeezed out a few words with difficulty.
Hoshino looked down at her with disdain, tears welling up in his eyes.
Memories surfaced in his mind, two faces overlapping.
—Xingcan, don't you think this world is too empty? I want to create some birds and beasts to keep me company, and I can even roast and eat them.
—Sister Rongrong, there are many animals in the mortal realm. We can bring them to the immortal realm.
—Those are all ordinary things, terribly clumsy. I want to raise some with spiritual roots; maybe they can lay eggs imbued with spiritual energy, having an effect like a elixir~
Hoshino: "So you were the ancestor of all demons in mythology..."
Zhao Xi thought, "Stop talking!"
Little Ruri screamed, drowning out Hoshino's voice: "Ahhh! You bad brother, don't let Mother awaken! She'll eat us all up!"
—Xingcan, come here quickly, I have something good to show you.
—There's so much smoke, what's burning?
—Hehe, it's our origin!
"…………"
Hoshino closed his eyes.
It turns out that the monsters were also created by Sister Rongrong, and the black demonic energy was just smoke produced by the mutual burning of their essences.
—Don't use the name Xingcan anymore. Change your name to Xingye, so she won't be able to find your exact location.
—I don't think this will make a difference. I don't understand why we have to separate. So what if she's utterly wicked? The Immortal Realm is fine as it is now.
—The divination I performed was inauspicious. If things continue like this, one day we will disappear along with this world.
—I don't believe you. You're clearly just jealous that I'm with Rongrong!
Flames were scorching his body.
Past lives and even more distant memories are fully assembled.
Do you hate her?
hatred.
Of course he hates it.
If it weren't for Rongrong, he wouldn't be so weak, unable to even defeat a mere water god! If it weren't for her, he wouldn't have been reborn as a black water dragon beast for countless lifetimes, allowing the monsters of this world to toy with him...
[Don't dirty your hands, or you'll never regain your divine position! Quickly make Zhao Xi want to awaken; the water god you hate will extinguish her essence, killing two birds with one stone! Quickly tell her that she created the demon race and monsters, so she can awaken.]
Hoshino looked at Zhao Xixiang under his palm, his gaze growing even colder.
"You mean brother, let go of Mommy! If Mommy's gone, there won't be anyone to cook for us anymore!"
Little Liuli pounced on him and started biting his arm. Blood dripped from his arm, mingling with the chilling demonic energy.
it hurts!
After suddenly realizing what was happening, his body began to reject the fire elemental energy, and the domineering flames of the Fire God enveloped him in an instant.
"Ah!" he screamed, rolling on the ground to extinguish the flames.
"Hoshino!" she called to him, "Ruri, quickly bring down the rain, I know you can! Put out the fire!"
"No, Mother! He just tried to kill you!"
"Liuli, hurry up!"
Hoshino lay on the ground, watching the mortal crawl towards him. She patted the flames on his body with her cool hands, her delicate face full of worry.
Tears streamed down her face.
It landed on the ground, creating a tiny ripple.
Yes...
If it were Sister Rongrong, she might have already angrily killed him for disobeying her.
But she wasn't.
Fortunately, she wasn't...
Little Ruri finally listened to her mother and summoned a cloud of water vapor to extinguish the flames on Hoshino's body.
However, Hoshino was severely burned and degenerated into the prototype of the Blackwater Dragon Beast.
He lay on the ground, his nostrils flaring, his body covered in multicolored black scales that had carbonized and crumbled, his hair burned off, and the dragon horns and tail tips on his head fell to the ground, blood gushing from the broken ends.
Will he be burned to death and re-enter the cycle of reincarnation?
*
Fortunately, this was in the shaman's territory. Hoshino's demonic energy was inextricably linked to the source of the fire god, and ordinary medicine couldn't cure it. The shaman presented several kinds of medicine, and Zhao Xi wanted to apply them separately to different parts of her body. In the end, she found one that could cure the condition.
Ignoring the possible side effects, she carried Hoshino into the house, peeled off each charred scale, and applied ointment.
Just looking at it makes me feel pain.
Hoshino woke up several times from his coma, drenched in sweat.
Poor thing...
In the middle of the night, Zhao Xi was about to doze off by the bed when she heard a voice that jolted her awake: "Headmistress."
