Upon hearing this, Pidan flew into a rage.
"Ugly freak, explain yourself clearly, who is Black Charcoal?"
Taotie He was surprised to hear this; such a small black thing had such a fiery temper.
Upon closer inspection, they discovered that he looked exactly like Wu Hua, so they immediately inquired...
"I apologize for my intrusion. May I ask who you are?"
Seeing his attitude suddenly change, Pidan felt embarrassed to scold him anymore and instead politely extended his little hand to him.
"Hello, my name is Qin Songhua, my nickname is Pidan, what's yours?"
Upon hearing this name, Taotie He felt as if he had met a long-lost relative.
He crouched down and grabbed his little black hand tightly.
"You're also surnamed Qin? Me too, my name is Qin Wei, and my nickname is Jin Jin."
"Jinjin~"
"Century egg~"
"Jinjin~"
"Century egg~"
They embraced tightly, as if they had suddenly met kindred spirits in the vast universe.
The sight of the Houzang made even the beasts go numb.
"That's enough, you two. Taotie He, what brings you here?"
Upon hearing this, Taotie He snapped out of his daze and immediately rose to bow respectfully to him.
"Lord of the Domain, although we have achieved a great victory today, our kin have also suffered heavy losses. Qinglong Ying and I just counted the number of beasts and found that a total of more than 570 beasts have died in this battle..."
Upon hearing this number, Hou Jiang felt as if an arrow had pierced his heart.
But as the lord of all beasts, he absolutely could not let the other beasts see his vulnerable side.
After exhaling a breath of stale air, he calmly spoke.
"Since we have come here to guard this place, casualties are inevitable. Remember to remind everyone that our fallen kin will also turn into black mist in the future. If you see their illusions during the battle, do not take them seriously."
Taotie He verbally agreed, but inwardly he felt a little resentful.
He felt that the Houzang was too ruthless and didn't value their lives at all.
As if sensing his thoughts, Pidan immediately reached out and tugged at his sleeve.
"Jinjin, I'll go with you to tell everyone!"
Upon hearing this, Taotie He grasped his hand again: "Okay."
After they left, the Houjiang also shed tears.
Then he closed his eyes and began chanting the Rebirth Mantra towards the direction of the battlefield.
Hoping that through the power of its ancient divine beast essence, it can bring its departed kin back to life.
Taotie He hadn't gone far when Pidan stopped him.
Just as he was wondering, he saw Pidan wave his hand at him.
Then, a series of incantations entered his ears.
"This...this is the Rebirth Mantra?"
"That's right, this is a Rebirth Mantra infused with the power of ancient divine beasts, and also blessed with a lot of wishes. All of you deceased beasts should get a chance to be reincarnated."
"Is it the domain lord?"
"Of course, who else could it be but him?"
Upon hearing this, Taotie He felt his self-reproach reach its peak.
I was just blaming the domain lord for being too cruel, but he's secretly performing a ritual for everyone's soul.
All I've done is talk; I haven't done anything else...
Seeing his bitter and resentful look, Pidan had no choice but to continue comforting him.
"I showed you these things because I didn't want any misunderstandings between you and the Domain Lord, not so that you would feel guilty."
Taotie He looked at his little dark face and let out a long sigh.
"Piered Egg, do you think I'm useless? As a ferocious beast, I can't offer any blessings or protection..."
"Of course not. The fact that you feel sad for them is already quite remarkable."
Really?
“Indeed, the characteristics of Taotie are ferocity and greed, but I have not seen any of them in you, which proves that you are different from other ferocious beasts.”
After he finished speaking, Taotie He was genuinely moved.
"Everyone says that ferocious beasts are terrifying, and everyone keeps their distance from them. I never expected that you could see through me at a glance and know that I am different in essence."
Pidan never expected that someone so big would be so sensitive.
"Of course, because we both share the surname Qin, we're like brothers!"
He was a small, dark figure, but when he tilted his head back and smiled, he revealed a set of large, white teeth, which made Taotie He laugh heartily.
"You're right, we're brothers, hehe~"
From then on, he never let Pidan walk on his own again, but held him in his arms the whole time.
"Piered Egg, do you think the Domain Lord's actions can truly bring the fallen beasts back to life?"
"Of course, he is the lord of all beasts and is worshipped by all beasts. But what you don't know is that he also worships each and every one of you. The power of mutual devotion is far more effective than that of one-way devotion."
After he finished speaking, he saw Taotie He staring blankly at him.
"What's wrong? Did I say something wrong?"
"No, it's just that I didn't know any of what you're talking about. How could you know so much?"
Upon hearing this, Pidan became incredibly proud.
"Because I know everything from astronomy to geography, there's nothing in this vast universe that I, Little Egg, don't know."
As soon as he finished speaking, Qin Luo, who had walked over, tapped him on the head.
"What, are you planning to pretend to be a know-it-all and fool the naive beast?"
Pidan covered his head, looking aggrieved.
"I don't…"
Upon seeing this, Taotie He also testified on its behalf.
"Luo Luo, Pi Dan really didn't. He was just joking with me. Don't hit him."
Qin Luo hadn't expected this little black devil to be so good at winning people over.
In just a few hours, he had already recruited a powerful beastman to his service.
While she admired him, she also became more wary.
"Okay, it was my fault. I will never lay a hand on him again."
Having received his assurance, Taotie He immediately looked at Pidan to curry favor.
"Luo Luo won't hit you anymore, are you happy?"
