Jiufeng's cheek was slapped to the side, blood spilled from the corner of her mouth, and her messy long hair slipped down from her shoulders, draped over her snow-white, naked body: "Elder Yi, I killed him, I burned him to ashes, where do you expect me to find him for you?"
That disgusting, filthy, and despicable Vampire is dead; he killed him and he fell into a crack in the ground and disappeared.
Where do we find his body, where do we find him? Do we have to dig 3,000 feet into the ground?
An elder, his hands rough as tree bark, grabbed Jiu Feng's chin. His eyes shone with a light that seemed to want to drink his blood and eat his flesh to achieve immortality: "Clan Chief, do you not understand what I'm saying? I've already investigated. The Vampire for whom you abandoned your partner has not left the temple."
"You still want to lie to me? What, have we been too kind to you these past few days, making you side with outsiders and unwilling to sacrifice your own interests for the sake of your people's longevity?"
He doesn't have much time left; he's old enough; he desperately needs immortality.
Only by achieving immortality can he avoid death and continue living, so... he must spare no expense to achieve immortality.
Anyone who blocks his path to immortality is his enemy, and he will never let them live under the same sky.
Jiufeng looked at the crazed Elder and chuckled.
An elder flew into a rage and slapped him across the face again in the same spot: "What are you laughing at? Answer me right now, where did you take him?"
Jiufeng's face was swollen and red from the beating. She no longer possessed the otherworldly, ethereal quality of the Fourth Civilization's spiritual beliefs. Instead, she was disheveled, fallen into the mortal world, and filthy.
Jiufeng licked the blood from the corner of her mouth and looked at the elder with a smile: "I'm laughing at what unrealistic dreams you're having. Immortality? Which of the ancestors of the Phoenix Clan wasn't stronger than you in terms of mental and physical strength? They didn't achieve immortality, so what makes you think you can?"
"Just because you captured me, just because you drew my blood, just because you saw some absurd legend somewhere that Vampires can live for thousands of years, you think you've found a way to immortality?"
"Stop dreaming. No one can live forever. You can't, I can't, and no one in the Phoenix Clan can."
"We will all die. None of us can outlive time. In the face of time, we are not even dust."
He and his people used to pursue immortality, thinking of the ancestral teachings left by their ancestors, and wrote in their notebooks that the Phoenix Clan could live forever.
He was persistent, but in the end, he had nothing, nothing at all. What that annoying Shu Xubai said was that both he and his master were madmen, madmen who pursued the illusory.
The elder was obsessed with achieving immortality. Anyone who obstructed his path to immortality was his enemy and the target of his annihilation: "You really think you're the patriarch of the Phoenix Clan? You won't shed a tear until you see the coffin. Since you're so heartless, don't blame me for being ruthless. I'll show you what it means to be worse than dead."
As the elder spoke, he pulled out a dagger and slashed at the arm of the woman who was hanging from Jiufeng, cutting off a piece of bloody flesh.
Jiufeng gritted his teeth in pain, blood flowing down his arm to his fingers, then dripping onto the ground and disappearing...
An elder, holding a bloody piece of flesh, approached Jiufeng and said, "Clan leader, your blood cannot produce immortality. I drank it and my body did not change at all. It doesn't matter. Perhaps the secret to immortality lies in your flesh."
“I don’t mind being the first to eat, and I certainly don’t recommend being the first immortal in the Phoenix Clan. So, I’ll eat this piece of meat.”
Bloody flesh was thrown into Jiu Feng's mouth by an elder right in front of him. He ate it with his mouth full of blood, making audible chewing noises, as if he were eating the most precious delicacies, his favorite food...
"Don't be afraid, I'm here, it's alright!" Agares held Jiang Si and enveloped her with his spiritual power, comforting her with a trembling voice: "You'll be alright, the baby will be alright too, don't worry."
God knows how shocked he was when he saw his wife fall to the ground, bleeding. If he had been a moment later, his wife might have been seriously injured.
He shouldn't stray far from her; he should stay by her side at all times to better protect her safety and prevent her from being harmed in any way.
Jiang Si, completely exhausted, leaned against Agares's chest and said weakly, "Don't tell Spirit Eye about me falling to the ground and bleeding."
If she told the Spirit Eye, he would definitely infuse her with his spiritual power. His inner self is already corrupt, and his life is heading towards extinction. How could she push him to his death from behind?
Therefore, no matter what, she couldn't tell Lingyan. She had to keep it from him so that his life would be longer and she could do everything she could to save him while he was still alive.
“I won’t tell him!” Agares whispered to Jiang Si, “I won’t tell anyone, I won’t tell anyone.”
He placed his hand on her stomach and channeled his spiritual energy into her. The two babies inside her seemed to be asleep, making no movement at all.
Jiang Si gently hummed in agreement: "Okay, I'll take a nap first. If I don't wake up in two hours, please change my clothes and put them on the bed. Don't worry about me."
How could Agares ignore her? But he went along with her and said, "Okay!"
Upon hearing his reply, Jiang Si clutched his clothes, closed her eyes in his arms, and drifted off to sleep.
Jiang Dandan: "!!!!"
It rubbed against the left, the right, the up, and the down.
Say hello to the little ones in Auntie's belly and let them get up and have some fun.
But the little pups were all pretending to be dogs and wouldn't get up and join in.
If the cubs don't interact with it, it feels its egg-laying life has been insulted, and it quickly feeds its spiritual energy back to the cubs.
It refused to believe that it, as the future Neptune of the Abel Galaxy, couldn't handle two offspring. Impossible, absolutely impossible.
With its buttocks bruised and covered in blood, Ling Hong, unable to transform into a tree shape, stood angrily in the pit, looking defiant.
The giant black snake Lingxi coiled around him in the pit, flicking its tongue. When it was happy, it would slap him across the face; when it was unhappy, it would slap him with its tail.
Ling Hong's condition is a cycle of new wounds covering old ones, and old wounds adding new ones, over and over again, from top to bottom, inside and out, there's not a single patch of good skin left.
Lingyan held a water bottle and sprayed water on his body while saying, "If you tone down your fierce look, Lingxi won't hit you."
Ling Hong retorted fiercely, "Whether it pulls me out or not is none of your business. Stop with your crocodile tears. If you really care about me, then pull out this broken willow branch stuck in my body and get rid of the spiritual energy pressing on me."
The other companion spirits listened intently, increasingly convinced that Ling Hong was a spoiled brat, a ruthless killer.
The internet says that to deal with these naughty kids, if one beating doesn't work, beat them twice; if two beatings don't work, beat them three times; if three beatings still don't work, beat them until they stop beating.
Ling Hong used to be so dog-like, so wicked, so ruthless, he just needed to be beaten. No, they need to remind Ling Yan, lest Ling Yan be soft-hearted.
All the companion creatures immediately thought of the same thing. They exchanged glances, flapped their wings, and flew behind Spirit Eye, saying to him, "Spirit Eye, he's wicked. You mustn't fall for his tricks."
“Yes, Spirit Eye, don’t be fooled by his silver tongue and forget how he treated us on Hundred Fruit Star. Now that he’s in trouble and has no help, he likes to play the victim.”
"Yes, yes, he was so arrogant and tried to fight with his master. His master kicked him away and beat his butt so badly."
The spirit looked back at the other companion spirits and said gently, "Thank you for reminding me. Go and have fun. I won't fall for his tricks, don't worry."
The other creatures nodded in agreement, offering him words of advice, before fluttering away. Some flew to their own trees, some wiped the dust off their leaves, and others polished the bark of their trees.
In short, all the creatures were busy and happy with their trees.
"Pah!" Ling Hong spat at Ling Yan: "Can't you live a more realistic life? Can't you live a more authentic life? Why do you have to wear this hypocritical face and do these hypocritical things?"
Lingyan picked up the watering can and poured it over Linghong's head: "You're only 2,000 years old, still very young, that's why you have such a bad temper."
Ling Hong: "!!!!"
I want to curse his mother.
But when I think about how his mother is his mother, I can't bring myself to curse her.
"Look at you, look what you've done to this tree trunk!" The Spirit Eye poured water all over his head, and the water dripped down his head onto his body, soaking the streaks of blood. It didn't hurt, but it was still painful, though not unbearable.
"And another thing, I saw a worm in your butt!" The Spirit Eye coolly reminded him, "Little white tree worm, can you not be so slovenly? You transform into human form, but you don't even know how to clean up worms?"
Ling Hong instantly bristled, her hair standing on end: "Who has bugs on them? Who has bugs on them? I take regular baths and get rid of bugs regularly."
The Spirit Eye responded with an "Oh," and said, "Really?"
Ling Hong stared with her red eyes: "Yes, yes, yes, it must be true."
"And you, I don't need you to water my plants at all. Get out of here and let Ah Ying come and water them for me. I find you disgusting!"
The spirit eye turned around, went behind him, and poured water from the water bottle onto his buttocks.
Ling Hong tried to dodge, but Ling Xi flicked her tongue with a snake's tongue, and her bottom felt a chill as water was poured over her.
Immediately afterwards, Lingyan broke off two tree branches, reached down towards his buttocks, and pulled out a plump, white worm. "Linghong, look, your little tree worm!"
Ling Hong: "!!!!"
Oh shit!
Utter humiliation, utter humiliation.
They actually pulled a bug out of his butt! It's fake, it's fake, it must be fake.
The Spirit Eye anticipated Ling Hong's thoughts, and came to him with the worm in its hand. It took his hand, placed the worm in his palm, and delivered a fatal blow: "This is not fake. It was taken from the wound on your buttock."
“Ling Hong, there’s nothing shameful about admitting that you don’t bathe or get rid of bugs. I won’t laugh at you, after all, I’ve been the one getting rid of bugs for you since you were little.”
"Ah!" Ling Hong cried out in anger and embarrassment, "Get out, get out of here..."
"Spirit Eye!" A-Ying flew all the way to the plant pod. When she was almost in front of Spirit Eye, she called out to him. Her cheerful shout made Ling Hong's voice stop abruptly. He watched as A-Ying flew into Spirit Eye's arms.
Ling Hong: "!!!!"
I'm so angry!
There were no leaves to block his view.
He stood naked in the pit, the insect in his hand wriggling as if trying to burrow into his body.
Lingyan hugged Aying, who had thrown herself into his arms, her voice as gentle as spring water, so beautiful it touched the heart: "Why are you so happy?"
Ah Ying clung to him like a koala: "Spirit Eye, can you sense my spiritual power?"
The spirit eye placed its hand on his waist: "I can feel the immense spiritual benefits!"
A-Ying's eyes lit up, and she quickly stepped back, pulling him and jumping into his tree pit: "Come, come, Spirit Eye, I'll give you spiritual power, I'll help you organize your spiritual power."
Ling Hong: "!!!!"
Lingyan broke his promise; he had said he would give Ah Ying to him.
Now he's actually letting Ah Ying channel her spiritual energy into him.
Indeed, a man's words are deceitful, and even a tree is no exception.
An hour passed, then two hours. Agares removed his hand from Jiang Si's stomach, but his mental energy did not dissipate. He fetched water, wiped her body, changed her into a clean dress, and placed her on the bed.
While he was covering her with a blanket, the baby in her belly moved and kicked him as if to greet him.
Agares paused, his hand touching Jiang Si's belly through the blanket, wanting to feel the baby again, but the baby remained motionless.
Agares moved his hand away, took the basin in front of the bed and his wife's skirt to the bathroom to wash them, then came out to take off his clothes. Just as he was about to get into bed and embrace his wife, fiery red willow branches burst out from Jiang Si's body.
Agares rolled over and silently got out of bed. Then he saw the fiery red willow branches transform into countless branches, and within those branches flickered a figure with red hair, green clothes, and black eyes.
Just as Agares was about to ask a question, Jiang Dandan suddenly darted into the willow trees.
Agares frowned, and before he could react, he saw Yan Liu flick her wrist, and a dark shadow flashed past his eyes. He turned his head to look in the direction of the shadow, and then heard a bang. Jiang Dandan was embedded in the wall of the ship, and he couldn't pry her out.
"Yanliu, are you ready to become an adult?" Agares, true to his uncle's nature, turned to Yanliu the moment he saw that Jiang Dandan was impossible to pry out: "Or is something going to happen to Jiang Jiang?"
More and more willow branches appeared, piling up on the bed and covering the ginger shreds, making Agares unable to see her.
Unable to see his young wife, Agares' expression tightened, his mind went blank, and he strode forward, flicking a willow branch in the opposite direction.
Agares didn't dodge, but went straight at him. He didn't grasp the willow branch, and with a snap, he was struck by it, his clothes were torn, and a bloody welt appeared on his body.
Agares, seemingly oblivious to the pain, stepped forward again. Just as he was about to reach the edge of the bed, a piercing sound of a blade rang out. Immediately afterward, a man dressed in a black robe, with long black hair, black eyes, and ancient, intricate patterns covering his face and neck, exuding a thick, bloody aura, blocked his path. His voice was like the metallic clang of a blade: "Master is currently severely injured and has entered a state of death hibernation. Any unauthorized persons who approach Master will be killed without mercy!"
