C64 The life of this little guy

An enormous figure blocked out the sunlight in front of Ye Yang, and he saw at once two eyes the size of houses staring at him.

Ye Yang's entire body went cold. In that moment he was in despair. Just a while ago he was still sympathizing with the person whose bones were left in the mountains, but he did not expect his turn to come so soon.

Although he didn't know what rank the demonic beast in front of him was, from its height of over three hundred feet and its aura that was as vast as the sea, he knew that there was no way he could escape.

At this time, the Little Fox came out of Ye Yang's clothes. It looked at the mountain sized beast in front of it, but it was not afraid in the slightest. It climbed onto Ye Yang's shoulder and looked in front of it with confusion.

Ye Yang secretly complained. He rubbed the little thing's head and said, "Looks like I’m gonna die young. Little thing, run away. It shouldn't be able to see you."

Gently placing the Little Fox on the ground, he indicated for it to quickly flee. But this little thing did not understand what Ye Yang meant, and was looking at him with a puzzled expression.

Not being able to care so much, Ye Yang shouted loudly to strengthen his courage.

"Bring it on. What's so special about your physique? I'm not afraid of you at all. It's just that my scalp is a little frozen." Ye Yang waved his spear and said without really knowing what he was saying.

Ye Yang was going all out, and he didn’t have a choice. It’s only death and he had already experienced it before.

However, what surprised Ye Yang was that the beast showed no intention to attack him, and only looked at Ye Yang.

Ye Yang felt uncomfortable being stared at, but this instead stimulated his stubbornness. He pushed his spear to the ground and widened his eyes as hard as he could, staring at the eyes that were much larger than his.

But as he stared, Ye Yang felt that this face looked familiar. However, no matter how hard he tried to remember, he didn't recognize such a fierce demonic beast.

"Human, I mean no harm. You don't have to be afraid."

Seeing that the demonic beast was speaking in human language, Ye Yang retreated a few steps in shock, almost falling to the ground.

"You … you can speak?" Ye Yang stuttered as he spoke.

This completely exceeded Ye Yang's expectations, and he almost shouted "demon" out loud …

The beast moved, and Ye Yang felt a blur in front of him. And a beautiful woman dressed in luxurious clothing appeared in front of him.

Ye Yang was instantly shocked, "You're a demon?"

"Demon?" The well-dressed lady smiled, looking dignified and graceful. "Haven’t you heard that demonic beasts can speak human language when they reach the Sixth Rank and turn into human form when they reach the Seventh Rank?"

Ye Yang was startled. He was an outsider, so of course he didn't know about this. And the beasts on the manuals that he read were all below the Fifth Rank, and not all the species were included.

Ye Yang embarrassedly coughed and said, "I haven’t really learned it so I don't know anything about it. It seems I really need to study harder."

After finding himself safe, Ye Yang immediately let out a sigh of relief, "May I ask why you are here?"

"I’m here to thank you, young master," the beautiful lady said as she looked at Ye Yang.

"Thank me?" Ye Yang was a little confused.

"Yes, I want to thank you," the beautiful woman waved towards the Little Fox beside Ye Yang, and the Little Fox immediately jumped into her embrace.

Seeing this, Ye Yang suddenly realized. No wonder she looked so familiar in her original form. It was a larger version of the little thing.

The lady smiled at Ye Yang and said, "Thank you for taking care of my daughter these past few days, and thank you even more for saving my daughter's life. Please accept my bow to you."

"I dare not to accept it," Ye Yang replied and also bowed as he saw the lady bowing to him.

“You don’t have to do that,” The well-dressed beauty said as she caressed the Little Fox's head, her face filled with a loving radiance. She said: "You saved my daughter, so you are my benefactor. My name is Hu Menghan. You can call me Aunt Hu from now on."

To be able to have such a strong expert as a relative, Ye Yang was overjoyed. This was definitely a reliable backer. He greeted “Aunt Hu” immediately.

"But I don't know her name yet," Ye Yang said as he pointed at the little thing.

"Her name is Hu Xiaoyue. But she won't be using this name for much longer." Hu Menghan's voice contained a hint of desolation.

"Eh?" Ye Yang was a little perplexed.

"Xiaoyue was born with atavism, and was originally the hope for our clan's revival. Unfortunately, God made a huge joke by closing her meridians and preventing her from absorbing the origin energy of the heaven and earth for cultivation. So she only has a few years left to live," Hu Menghan said and her tears were all over her face.

The Little Fox looked puzzled as it lightly rubbed its mother's chin. It had no clue why its mother was crying.

"Is there no other way? How about using external force to break through?" Ye Yang asked, a little dissatisfied. He felt very sorry that such a cute little thing should suffer from an incurable disease.

"It's useless. It hasn't even started cultivating, and its meridians are too weak. No matter how well one controls his external strength, he would destroy all its meridians and kill it on the spot." As she said this, Hu Menghan couldn't help but sob softly.

She no longer had any trace of a powerful Seventh Ranked Demonic Beast. She was now but a helpless mother who didn’t know what to do.

Looking at Hu Menghan, Ye Yang thought of his own mother. Even though he had never met her before, he knew that she would definitely care for him as much as Hu Menghan did. Ye Yang’s eyes became moist without him even knowing.

Hu Menghan gently wiped away her tears and said softly, "Good child, don't be sad. I have been following you these days. You have been very good to Xiaoyue, to the point that you don't even care about your own safety. These are the happiest days for her."

"Now, I will entrust Xiaoyue to you. She has two months to live. I hope that she can be happy during her last days. And I hope that you can help me fulfill this wish," she said as she gently placed the Little Fox before Ye Yang's chest.

Ye Yang reached out to take the little thing. He was very down. And as he gently caressed the little thing's head, he was unable to say anything for a moment.

"I'm sorry. Please forgive me for my selfish request. As a mother, I really don't have the courage to watch as my child dies," Hu Menghan said as she choked with sobs.

"I understand. I will take good care of the little thing. Aunt Hu, don't worry." Ye Yang solemnly nodded his head.

"The day when Xiaoyue passes away, I will come and pick her up. Thank you for the rest of these days," Hu Menghan said, and lightly kissed the Little Fox's head. She made up her mind, turned around, and disappeared into the forest.

The little thing saw her disappear in front of its eyes, and was at a loss. After a while, it jumped onto Ye Yang's shoulder and started playing.

Ye Yang took a moment for his emotions. After encountering so many things in the past two days, and barely escaping from death several times, even with Ye Yang's firm will, he was still physically and mentally exhausted.

He opened the map and looked carefully. Ye Yang realized that he was already more than 8000 miles away from the Academy, which meant that he had been chased by the Blue-eyed Eagle for over 2500 kilometers in half a day and night.

When he thought about that furred beast, Ye Yang gnashed his teeth in extreme hatred. Sooner or later, he would take revenge. He wouldn’t stop until he plucked out all its feathers.

Seeing that it was late, he ran into the cave, took out his tent, and made a bed for the little thing to sleep in as comfortably as possible.

After settling the little thing down, Ye Yang went out to do some safety work, and also stored the big spider's corpse into his storage ring.

Now that he had a new Dimensional Ring, he no longer had to worry about space anymore.

After finishing everything, he went back to the tent. The little thing was already fast asleep, but Ye Yang did not sleep.

He had just broken through, and his aura was unstable. He was unable to restrain his aura, so it was easy for the demonic beasts to detect him.

This was also the reason why he was so easily discovered by the Blue-eyed Eagle. Traveling like this was very dangerous, like walking at night with a light bulb. It was hard to not be discovered.

Ye Yang meditated in the tent as he started to circulate the Deicide Tactic to stabilize his Qi.

Following the movement of the Genuine Qi, Ye Yang was pleasantly surprised to discover that although he had broken through to the Warrior level, his Qi whirl had already expanded countless times compared to when he had just advanced to martial cultivator.

However, the Deicide Tactic was still as impressive as before, and the rate at which he absorbed spiritual energy from the outside world was still as fast.

As if the Qi whirl had grown larger, and the power of the Deicide Tactic had also increased. After one night, Ye Yang's aura had already completely stabilized, and even increased by quite a bit.

This made Ye Yang more and more confused. What rank of cultivation methods was the Deicide Tactic? Was it a high grade of the Earth Rank? Or the legendary Heaven Rank?

Where did this Broken Sword come from? Why did it not reveal anything at all? Ye Yang became more and more perplexed.

Ye Yang's heart stirred, and he arrived at his sea of consciousness. He discovered that the Broken Sword was still floating there, but he did not receive anything after waiting for a long time.

Unlike before, when he first came here, the Broken Sword gave him the Deicide Tactic the first time.

When breaking through the martial cultivator, it passed on Soul Absorbing Grimoire to him. But after this breakthrough, the Broken Sword didn't give him anything.

After waiting for a long time and seeing no reaction from the Broken Sword, Ye Yang had to leave his sea of consciousness.

Seeing how the sun was already shining outside, the little thing started to run back and forth on the rock at the entrance of the cave.

Ye Yang looked at the little thing, feeling secretly sad. This little creature didn't know that it only had less than two months left to live.

Ye Yang packed his things, called Little Fox and headed toward Tianwu Academy.

Along the way, Ye Yang was cautious and did not engage in any fighting. When he met powerful demonic beasts, he would just take a detour so that he could rush back to Tianwu Academy.

He had an inexplicable premonition that he might be able to find a way to save the Little Fox once he reached Tianwu Academy.

He decided that when he returned to the Academy, he would immediately start searching through the ancient records regarding blocked meridians. He believed that he would find some clues and then figure out what to do.

The next morning, Ye Yang was lucky enough to encounter a Second Ranked Flying Beast. He took it as his vehicle and flew with it.

After breaking through to become a warrior, with the increase of his cultivation, he had become more and more familiar with slave seal techniques, and no longer needed to be as cautious as before.

There was no accident along the way. However, when it approached noon, a sorrowful cry of a bird attracted Ye Yang's attention.

Immediately, he ordered the beast to fly him towards the source of the sound. By the time he reached a valley, the two demonic beasts were engaged in a life-and-death battle.

Ye Yang stared at it and could not help but be overjoyed. Sure enough, one would pay for what he did sooner or later.

Ye Yang ordered the beast to approach. When they were still about ten thousand meters away from the two beasts, Ye Yang quietly jumped down. Covered by the shadow of the trees, he snuck over.

When he was only five hundred meters away, he carefully took out the Lunar Shadow Bow. A sneer appeared on his lips.

"It's time for revenge!"
