When it opened its eyes, it saw Feng Qi with a warm smile.
That was the first time they met.
From then on, Feng Qi became its only family.
In front of the village outside Winterfrost, the scene of Feng Qi risking his life to block the Sword Saint’s attack for it was still vivid in its mind.
In the Black Absolute Domain Field, Feng Qi carried it and advanced while bathed in blood under the pursuit of the weak race alliance. Blood blurred his vision as he finally fell under the dusk.
Every time Feng Qi risked his life to save it, it would remind it of its clansmen who had sacrificed themselves for their race.
In the past, it chose to live under the protection of its family.
Because of this, it felt pain, guilt, and regret.
After more than 10 years of companionship, it had long regarded Feng Qi as its only family.
This time, it did not want to endure this pain anymore.
Instead of living an ignoble life, it was better to fight to the death.
The blood and Qi stored in its body were released continuously, and the gray
fog turned bloody.
The higher-ups of the military arrived at the location at this moment.
Facing the owner of the fog in the form of the blood giant, they began to attack.
The blood giant continued to collapse and reform in the battle. The size of the blood fog began to shrink at a visible speed.
Feng Qi’s vision gradually became blurry as he looked at the owner of the fog fighting with all its might in the sky.
After more than 10 years of interaction, it was impossible not to have feelings
for each other.
However, he didn’t expect the owner of the fog to risk its life to save him.
He understood the owner of the fog very well. He knew that it liked to weigh the pros and cons, and would not attack unless it was confident of winning.
He could already memorize the words that often came out of its mouth.
“Ah Qi, you need to grasp one thing. Only a fool engages in direct confrontation. The true power lies in intelligence, creating the greatest benefits at the lowest cost.”
“I have to say that humans are smart. The things recorded in the ancient books
are the same as my thoughts.”
“Ah Qi, don’t think like a brute. Strength matters, but it should be your last resort. Learn to grasp other people’s emotions and thoughts. That’s when you can strategize and emerge victorious.”
“If I can use my brain, I will never attack…”
The owner of the fog, whose mind was filled with thoughts of relying on its wits to win, chose to fight in the most disdainful way it had ever done.
Just to save Feng Qi from the execution ground.
He did not feel good about it.
I’ve always been using you. Yet, you treat me as family.
How absurd.
Reinforcements continued to pour in, and the owner of the fog steadily weakened.
At this moment, it was not the overlord who stood tall 1,500 years later, let alone compared to the Spiritual Energy Race that had developed for hundreds of years.
Of course, it was talented and powerful.
However, it was at a disadvantage under the siege.
Just as the Spiritual Energy Race and the military soldiers thought that they could quickly disperse the blood fog and kill the owner of the fog, the blood fog suddenly spread and enveloped the world.
Soon after, the blood fog descended and enveloped everyone who had come to attack.
Facing the blood fog, they tried their best to escape. However, they couldn’t break through the seal.
At this moment, the owner of the fog broke through the blood fog and landed on the execution platform.
Fresh blood dripped from its body onto the execution platform. Its face was filled with a familiar smile as it walked towards Feng Qi step by step.
“Ah Qi, let’s go home.”
The owner of the fog shattered the metal shackles wrapped around Feng Qi’s body. It bent down and carried the latter, who was covered in injuries. “You shouldn’t have come,” Feng Qi suppressed his emotions and said.
“I’m already here, so don’t mind me,” the fog’s owner said casually, a smile playing on its face.
“Let’s go back to Star City.” As it spoke, the owner of the fog floated into the air. It looked back at the surging sea of blood in the sky and flew into the distance without hesitation.
As it flew, the owner of the fog’s body began to tremble uncontrollably.
The sea of blood was the source of his life. Even the blood stones had fused into the Blood Sea.
If it gave up on the sea of blood, its life would no longer have any support. As it flew, it kept coughing out blood and Qi, and its face aged at a visible speed.
However, it did not stop. It relied on the remaining blood and Qi in its body to continue flying.
It’s my turn to protect you this time.
Finally, they flew out of Former Days City.
At this moment, the owner of the fog had a head full of white hair, and its face was filled with wrinkles.
Depleted of the strength to fly, it descended from the sky, landing on a hill alongside Feng Qi.
The owner of the fog landed heavily on the barren grass. Its body trembled as it struggled to stand up, carrying the powerless Feng Qi on its back again.
One bloody footprint at a time, it walked resolutely into the distance. Sunset and dusk seemed to indicate that the owner of the fog’s life was coming to an end.
Lying on the back of the owner of the fog, Feng Qi’s heart was filled with sorrow.
He could feel that the owner of the fog was exhausted.
This feeling of helplessness made it difficult for him to breathe.
After walking for an unknown period, the owner of the fog collapsed to the ground when night fell.
Under the moonlight, the owner of the fog used the remaining strength in its body to move its trembling hands through the soil.
“Ah Qi… This is the Flesh Cauldron’s trajectory… It carries my dream… Continue to advance to the peak.”
“Do it yourself!”
■■I might be able to restore my life source if it’s shattered… But now that I’ve lost it… it’s impossible for me to survive… Continue on my behalf… and admire the scenery at the peak.”
As it spoke, tears of blood flowed from the owner of the fog’s eyes.
The owner of the fog, who was once afraid of death, felt a trace of comfort in its heart..
