"It is quite unexpected that such a small clan in the desolate Python Mountain has produced a genius like you. You humans are truly a strange clan that cannot be measured by common sense."
Qi Shen was somewhat surprised, then sneered, "It's a pity you dare to fantasize about slaying a god, you overestimate yourself!"
The lightning stopped, and all that remained in Qi Shen's eyes was the figure carrying anger and resentment, charging towards him.
The dark clouds gathered into a hundred-foot-long claw, which slammed towards the moon wolf.
"ah!"
The moon wolf roared again, fearlessly clashing with the claws.
boom!
The shockwave exploded, and the dark cloud claws trembled violently. After a brief stalemate, the moon wolf's face turned pale, and as blood spurted from his mouth, he was sent flying. After flying dozens of meters backward, he fell helplessly from mid-air.
His entire body was covered in blood and flesh, his bones were almost shattered, and his vital energy was extremely weak.
With just a casual palm strike, Qi Shen extinguished most of his life force.
After falling several hundred meters, a human face suddenly appeared in the Moon Wolf's almost unfocused eyes, a face filled with sorrow and sighs.
"Clan...Clan Chief..."
As a cool sensation spread across his forehead, Yuelang's spirits lifted, and his consciousness finally cleared. He then realized that he had not died from the fall, but had been caught in the arms of a Yuezhi who had appeared out of nowhere.
The Yuezhi gently placed him on the ground. All around, the fire still raged and cries continued, but for some reason, the scattered tribesmen seemed unaware of the Yuezhi's presence. They simply ran past the two without ever glancing at them.
"Chief, why..."
Moon Wolf asked, puzzled, his eyes filled with suppressed anger and despair.
Others may not know, but Moon Wolf does.
The clan leader is a true powerhouse who has lived for over several hundred years.
It was precisely because of the other party's secret teachings that Moon Wolf stood out among the children and even awakened the strongest talent in the history of the Great Moon Clan.
Even the guide from the five major clans said... he was no less talented than the core geniuses of those five major clans.
As long as he can reach the battlefield of all races and pass the test set by the gods, he will have an incomparably bright future!
It's even possible that he could become a legendary new god.
But now... everything is ruined.
His hard-earned, powerful physique was shattered by Qi Shen's claw attack, his foundation was no longer solid, and his path of cultivation was effectively severed.
Moreover, how will the Yuezhi clan, which suffered heavy casualties, continue to exist?
Even if the Yuezhi were no match for Qishen, they couldn't be completely helpless.
Moon Wolf couldn't understand why she could watch the Great Moon Clan perish without ever showing her face.
She can definitely do something!
She clearly loved her clan so deeply. Yuelang distinctly remembered that when he was a child, every word she uttered when she told him those ancient stories was filled with high hopes for him.
She hoped he would become the first man of the Yuezhi tribe to truly venture out into the world. She hoped that one day, under his leadership, the Yuezhi tribe would be able to settle in the rich and peaceful river valleys, and shine brighter than the sun, no longer living in the desolate Mangshan Mountains, struggling to survive in the cracks of the land...
How could those messages and expectations be fake?
Faced with the sorrowful gaze of the Moon Wolf, the Great Yuezhi remained silent for a moment before slowly speaking: "The continuation of the tribe is the most important thing. Moon Wolf, do you agree?"
Moon Wolf paused, then nodded, "Of course, but..."
“I used to dream that everyone could leave Mangshan, and that our Yue clan would no longer have to live in the shadow of any god. Even just a few days ago, I was still wondering if there was another way?”
The Moon Wolf stared blankly at the Great Yuezhi.
Two lines of turbid tears slowly flowed down that usually calm and composed old face.
Her eyes reflected the towering flames around her and the agonizing cries of her people in pools of blood.
Moon Wolf had never seen such a complex expression on the face of the Yuezhi, which included bewilderment, pain, resentment, and a barely perceptible sense of relief.
"I did have some thoughts at the time. I always thought, it was a transaction that spanned nine hundred years, how could I guarantee that it would be exactly like that? The more I got from that man in white, the more extravagant my desires became."
The Yuezhi murmured, "He gave me a thousand years of life, and even the ability to communicate with heaven and earth, which once gave me the illusion that I was comparable to the gods. Now I am horrified to realize that I am still a little bit short..."
"I have the destiny to live a long life, but I lack the powerful physique to match it. It's just a tiny bit short, but it's an insurmountable gap."
"This is the scheme he left behind; he had long ago figured out people's hearts."
The Moon Wolf was stunned. He didn't know what the Great Yuezhi was saying, but he could hear the weariness in the Great Yuezhi's tone.
“Child, sleep, we will all perish, but the ‘Great Moon’ will be eternal. In the cycle of reincarnation, those you have loved and those you know will always reappear.”
The Yuezhi gently stroked the Moon Wolf's face, his hand seemingly carrying a calming power that slowly soothed the Moon Wolf's restless heart.
In a daze, he saw a streak of fire appear on the horizon obscured by dark clouds, and he also saw the girl he loved most, enveloped in the fire.
She is so beautiful.
