The sky gradually darkened like a piece of cloth soaked in ink.
During the thrilling battle just now, the little black dog had been huddled aside.
It watched helplessly as its master was injured and fell unconscious in the fierce fight.
But for some reason, at this moment, it felt as if its heart was being pricked by thousands of sharp needles. The pain was unbearable, and it was so anxious that it was spinning around in circles.
But it knew very well that with its current meager cultivation, it was powerless in such a fierce battle.
While everyone was closing their eyes to heal their wounds and the surroundings were quiet, the little black dog quietly sneaked into the nearby forest.
Its nimble figure shuttled rapidly through the woods, and soon it hunted dozens of spirit beasts and carefully placed them in an open space not far away.
Then, the little black dog tiptoed to Shangguan Zongheng's side.
Its black bean-like eyes were full of worry, and it gently patted Shangguan Zongheng's sleeve with its paw.
At this time, Shangguan Zongheng had recovered some strength after some breathing exercises.
Shangguan Zongheng only felt his sleeve being gently pulled. When he looked up, he saw the little black dog biting his sleeve and slowly walking to the side.
Although he had some doubts in his heart, he still forced himself to stand up and followed the little black dog to the pile of spirit beasts with unsteady steps.
Shangguan Zongheng glanced at the spirit beasts, then looked at the little black dog and asked, "Dog King, do you know the origin of that mysterious big black hand in the woods today?"
Upon hearing this, the little black dog squatted on the ground, scratching the ground with its front paws anxiously. After thinking for a long time, it finally said, "Alas, this strange demonic energy is the first time in my life that I have felt it.
It is not pure, and there is a hint of ghost in it. I have been wandering around for many years, but I really don't know what kind of evil thing this is.
Shangguan Zongheng frowned after hearing what the little black dog said, and fell into deep thought, muttering to himself, "Judging from today's fight, the young master of Lingxu Palace is indeed not a simple person.
But who is this evil hand targeting? In this fight, I almost lost my life just for the sake of my stuttering."
After hearing what Shangguan Zongheng said, the little black dog curled his lips and said, "Alright, old Shangguan, stop sighing here."
Look, I have brought so many spiritual beasts for you. My master will definitely wake up immediately when he smells the aroma of this food.
If you all eat these, it will help stabilize your injuries better.
Shangguan Zongheng then turned his gaze towards the pile of spirit beast corpses again. A faint smile appeared on his face, and he said jokingly, "Dog Emperor, it seems that you have recovered well. You can now easily kill this fifth-level monster."
The little black dog puffed out his chest and said with a smug look on his face, "Of course, I will be able to return to my peak state after crossing two major levels."
Although it said this, its eyes would occasionally drift towards its unconscious master, full of concern and anxiety.
Shangguan Zongheng's eyes were determined, and he no longer had any hesitation.
He skillfully dealt with the pile of spirit beasts quickly and then neatly put them into the storage bag.
Then, he strode out of the woods and saw that my second brother and sister Yanran had woken up. They were standing around Su Qiyuan with worried looks on their faces, staring at me who was unconscious.
Shangguan Zongheng immediately spoke up, "Friend Song, I hunted some spirit beast meat, including a fifth-rank demon beast. Cooking it will definitely help with healing."
Upon hearing this, the second brother took out the frying pan without hesitation. He was about to use his spiritual power to build a simple stove, but his body was a little unstable because his injuries had not healed.
Sister Yanran was quick to stop him and said, "Brother Song, you're too badly injured. Let me do it."
Seeing this, the second brother had no choice but to nod helplessly.
Sister Yanran prepared everything swiftly, and Senior Shangguan was there to help add firewood and start the fire.
After a while, the tempting fragrance began to waft away and permeate the air around.
Su Qiyuan had been holding me the whole time. When he smelled the fragrance, his eyes first fell on the peculiarly shaped pot, and then he looked at me tenderly and said softly, "Junior sister, wake up quickly. There are delicious foods here."
At this moment, I am deeply immersed in all kinds of bizarre memories and having some strange dreams.
In the dream, there was a young man whose face was 70% similar to Su Qiyuan, except that his black hair fell softly on his shoulders.
In my dream, I seemed to have become a five or six-year-old child on the blue planet, innocent and naive.
The young man taught me how to practice diligently, and whenever I slacked off, he would pretend to be angry and hit me lightly.
Sometimes he would take the trouble to climb up the tree, pick the fruit and put it to my mouth.
If I cried, he would rush to comfort me.
When it was hot, he would hold a fan and fan me until I fell asleep peacefully.
When the weather gets cold, he will wrap me up tightly, like a little cotton ball, so that I can't even walk.
If I got angry and refused to eat, he would frown and get angry at me.
Just as I was immersed in this dream and couldn't extricate myself, suddenly, a rich aroma of meat slowly penetrated into my nostrils.
I smacked my lips subconsciously a few times, and my lips began to move slightly unconsciously.
Su Qiyuan had been staring at me closely. When he saw my mouth moving, he was stunned for a moment, then a bright smile broke out on his face. He murmured softly, "Still as greedy as when I was a kid."
After saying that, he carefully picked me up, picked up a small piece of cooked meat with a fork, then slowly sat down beside me and gently placed the meat next to my mouth.
I seemed to be bewitched by something and subconsciously took a small bite.
Seeing this, Su Qiyuan's smile deepened, and he said softly, "Junior sister, wake up quickly, or there will be no meat to eat."
When the second brother and the others heard Su Qiyuan's words, they all shouted loudly, "Little sister, if you don't wake up, the second brother will eat up all the meat and leave nothing for you."
These shouts seemed to have some kind of magical power. My body moved unconsciously, my hands waved in the air a few times, and then my eyes suddenly opened.
What caught my eye was Su Qiyuan's face with a gentle smile, which was very close to me. For some reason, I found him so pleasing to the eye at this moment.
I slowly turned my gaze to the sky again and saw that night had fallen.
Only the jumping flames on the stove flickered with red light, reflecting on everyone's faces, outlining a warm and beautiful picture.
At this moment, I subconsciously wanted to get up, but as soon as I exerted force, I felt as if my body fell apart in an instant. I felt a piercing pain all over my body, which made me gasp.
Su Qiyuan had been paying attention to my every move. Seeing me like this, he quickly reached out and gently stopped me, his eyes full of worry and pity.
He said softly, "Ling'er, you are seriously injured. Even if you take the Heaven and Earth Pill, it will take some time to recover. Don't move around anymore."
