“Great-grandpa! Don’t—”
Yu Wan’s scream suddenly sounded behind her. Sikong Ye heard his little great-granddaughter’s voice and understood the request in her words.
Unfortunately, the move had already been used, so it was too late to retract it. If he chased after an internal energy and hit it too close, both internal energy might stab into Little Rakshasa’s body.
Sikong Ye had no choice but to slap his arm. The sharp blade tilted and brushed past the back of Little Rakshasa’s head. The sharp blade attacked a hundred-year-old banyan tree. The tree that many people could not hug collapsed with a loud bang.
Yu Wan’s legs were about to go limp. Fortunately, such a powerful longevity technique did not land on Little Rakshasa. Otherwise, it would definitely be dead. Yu Wan walked over to see how Little Rakshasa was, but she was stopped by Sikong Ye.
Sikong Ye grabbed her wrist. “Don’t go over. It’s dangerous!”
Yu Wan said, “Little Rakshasa isn’t dangerous.”
The Great Rakshasa was also almost injured by Great Grandpa. At this moment, he was suffering the backlash of the cultivation technique. Even if he wanted to deal with him, he was powerless.
Children were always like this, not listening to their elders. Sikong Ye could kill the Rakshasa King at will, but he could not even keep a straight face with his little great-grandchildren. He shook his head and said helplessly, “Why are you here?”
As soon as he finished speaking, Sikong Ye saw Yan Jiuchao walking over unhurriedly. Thinking about it, it made sense. If it wasn’t for this kid, who would have the ability to bring a fat girl to catch up?
Little Rakshasa was also afraid of Yan Jiuchao. The moment Yan Jiuchao appeared, he retracted his hand that was originally planning to hold Yu Wan’s. It jumped back into the arms of the Rakshasa King who had fallen to the ground and stuck out half its head, revealing a pair of copper bell-like big eyes that looked at the three of them.
Its vigilance and fear made Yu Wan sigh. Yu Wan looked at it and said softly, “Don’t be afraid, I won’t hurt you.”
The way Little Rakshasa looked at Yu Wan was normal, but as soon as his gaze touched Yan Jiuchao, who had sealed its internal energy, and Sikong Ye, who had injured the Rakshasa King, it became abnormally vigilant and fierce.
“This little thing is quite fierce,” Sikong Ye said.
Yu Wan glanced at it and said to Sikong Ye, “It’s very obedient. Before Great Grandpa and Yan Jiuchao came out of seclusion, Dabao, Er’bao, and Xiaobao were almost killed by the Blood Rakshasa. It was the one who saved us. There was another time on the street when Xiaobao was kidnapped by the thieves. It was also the one who subdued the thieves and saved Xiaobao.”
Yu Wan did not elaborate on the process of subduing him. Otherwise, if he said it out loud, it would suck all the blood out of people, and Great-Grandpa would be worried that it was an evil thing and not let him approach it.
Sikong Ye did not expect such a thing to happen. When he looked at Little Rakshasa again, there was an additional layer of scrutiny in his eyes. He said with a complicated expression, “Even if it really did that, it’s still an evil thing.”
Yu Wan paused and said, “But evil creatures… also have emotions, right?”
Everyone with a discerning eye was watching what happened today. The Rakshasa King was injured to save Little Rakshasa, and Little Rakshasa didn’t care about its own safety at all in order to not let Great-Grandpa kill Great Rakshasa. Even among the people in the world, how many of them could be so loyal? Sometimes, people were inferior to a Rakshasa.
Sikong Ye shook his head. “They’re both Rakshasas, so they naturally cherish
each other. However, our lives are worthless in the eyes of the Rakshasas.”
Yu Wan understood that her great-grandfather was doing this for their own good, so even though she didn’t agree in her heart, she didn’t argue with him until her face was red. Instead, she turned to look at the Rakshasa King, who was enduring the backlash of his internal energy, and asked, “Who is Little Rakshasa to you? You’re protecting him so desperately. Is he your son?” The Rakshasa King was silent.
Little Rakshasa blinked. Although it did not understand, it understood that Yu
Wan was talking to the Rakshasa King. It looked at Yu Wan and then at the Rakshasa King. It tilted its head, as if wondering why the Rakshasa King was ignoring her.
“Isn’t that so?” Yu Wan caught the subtle expression that flashed across the Rakshasa King’s face.
The Rakshasa King was imprisoned in the Sang family’s forbidden area. Yu Wan would find it strange if the Sang family did not notice that he had obtained a son. Women would make a sound when they gave birth. When the children were born, they would make a sound. How great was the ability to hide it from so many eyes of the Sang family?
“Someone… came… to… the… Blood… pool…” The Rakshasa King could no longer express himself very smoothly. He stammered out a few words. Yu Wan guessed and roughly explained Little Rakshasa’s background.
The Sang family was prosperous. There were many masters and servants in the various branches. A portion of them were servants on the surface. These people did not know the secret of the forbidden area. There were also some people who specialized in dirty and malicious things, such as dealing with the Sang family’s forbidden area.
Among them was a maidservant who was cleaning the Rakshasa King’s courtyard.
That maidservant was a fool. She did not know which man she had gotten pregnant with. She originally planned to use an abortion medicine to deceive the world, but who knew that she did not abort the fetus? When she was seven months pregnant, her stomach could no longer be hidden. She wrapped herself in a blanket and rolled down the steps. She wanted to knock the child to death, but in the end, something did happen. She gave birth prematurely, but the child was alive.
Fortunately, the child was small and its cries were weak. Coincidentally, lightning and thunder covered the child’s cries. After that, in order to deal with the trouble at hand, the maidservant threw the child into the blood pool. She knew that there was an evil being living in the pool. If this child was thrown in, he would most likely be killed even if he didn’t drown.
However, in order to keep her secret, she couldn’t care less. She heartlessly abandoned this child and prayed that it would not be left with a corpse.
When the Blood Rakshasa discovered it, it was about to drown. However, as long as it was alive, its blood was fresh.
The Blood Rakshasa wanted to suck its blood energy dry, but the child suddenly grabbed one of its fingers and opened its mouth to look for food.
Perhaps it was because his heart softened at that moment, or perhaps it was because he had been locked in the forbidden ground for too long, but the Blood Rakshasa was a little lonely. The Blood Rakshasa did not kill it, but it had drowned in blood for too long and its chest was filled with liquid. It did not have long to live. The only way to let it live was to turn it into a Blood Rakshasa.
If a Blood Rakshasa could be refined so easily, he would not be a Blood Rakshasa.
All these years, the Sang family had tried many times to refine new Blood Rakshasas, but unfortunately, they failed.
But the child succeeded.
It stubbornly survived.
Of course, there was also the possibility that the Blood Rakshasa had voluntarily used his blood to feed it. The Sang family could not meet this condition, so they could not refine a new Rakshasa.
The Rakshasa King did not say why he did not let the Sang family know of the
existence of Little Rakshasa.
Yu Wan guessed that although the Rakshasa King was a little stupid, he could subconsciously understand that the Sang family had always had ill intentions. If they found out about the Little Rakshasa’s existence, it was very likely that they would take him away. At that time, the Blood Rakshasa had yet to break through and could not leave the forbidden area. If the Little Rakshasa was taken away, he would not be able to chase him back.
“If the Sang family obtains Little Rakshasa, what will they do to him?” Yu Wan looked at Sikong Ye.
Sikong Ye said thoughtfully, “This depends on how the Sang family fights. Someone like Sang Qiuhan who refined himself into a Rakshasa is too rare. If the Sang family obtains a little Rakshasa, they can use its blood to try to feed more Rakshasas. They can also directly dig out its inner core and turn a top expert into an extremely powerful Blood Rakshasa. Or perhaps, they can turn themselves into an even stronger Blood Rakshasa. The last type is when it’s obedient. But I don’t think this little thing will be manipulated.”
Therefore, once Little Rakshasa fell into the hands of the Sang family, the consequences would be unimaginable. Therefore, it was not difficult for Yu Wan to understand why the Blood Rakshasa was in such a hurry to break through to the Rakshasa King. He was worried that something would happen to Little Rakshasa.
In the beginning, Little Rakshasa was just an ordinary child. The Rakshasa King did not kill him either, so it could be seen that he still had a bit of a conscience. However, his obsession and killing intent were too strong. It was impossible for him to turn over a new leaf and be an honest person who did not bring disaster to the Nether Capital.
Sikong Ye sighed and said, “Ah Wan, I can spare this little one, but I can’t let Sang Qiuhan live. But even if he still has a last trace of conscience, he’s still too dangerous.”
It was unknown if it was because he felt Sikong Ye’s killing intent again, but Little Rakshasa flipped over and lay on the Rakshasa King’s body.
Its meaning was obvious. It did not allow anyone to hurt the Rakshasa King. It did not have a strong sense of right and wrong. It grew in the darkness, and the Rakshasa King was the only person who accompanied it through the endless darkness. Perhaps in its heart, the Rakshasa King was its father.
“Be good, come here. I’ll bring you to find your brother.” Yu Wan tried to coax the little Rakshasa over.
Little Rakshasa did not move.
Yu Wan rummaged through her pockets and took out its favorite blood pill. “For you. ”
Little Rakshasa did not move either. It just lay on the Rakshasa King’s body and did not leave him for a moment..
