Chapter 324: Dragon God’s Blood!!
Xia Feng and Mu Qingtong did not step forward. After all, on such a strange island, encountering such a mysterious azure fox was obviously not normal.
“Miss Mu, can you tell anything?” Xia Feng found through the Eye of Deconstruction that the fox’s body seemed to be covered by a layer of fuzzy energy, making it impossible to see through.
Mu Qingtong also shook her head, “I can’t see anything else, but its injuries are real, and its aura is at its end.”
“Oh?” Xia Feng rubbed his chin. “Then it seems our dinner is settled.”
“Wild foxes are protected animals explicitly stipulated by the Empire. Eating wild foxes is illegal, Mr. Xia.”
“Look at how smooth its fur is, it’s clearly a farmed fox,” Xia Feng knew Imperial law a bit. “Eating farmed foxes is not illegal.”
“That makes sense. Then Mr. Xia, you go scout the way, I’ll wait for you here.” Mu Qingtong smiled lightly, patted his shoulder, and then took a few steps back.
“…”
Are you serious about stepping back? Xia Feng complained in his heart, but he did not hesitate and immediately walked towards the cherry blossom tree. As he approached, the fox mask in the distance raised its tired eyelids again. The slightly upturned, narrow eyes seemed to be outlined with indigo eyeshadow, and the cold vertical pupils were filled with a pathetic watery sheen. When their eyes met, it inevitably evoked sympathy.
Xia Feng’s consciousness seemed to daze for a moment, and his footsteps quickened. The thought in his heart to test the danger quietly disappeared, leaving only an urgent desire to quickly approach the azure fox and cherish it. He approached rapidly, soon reaching within ten meters of the azure fox. However, before he could get any closer, a delicate pink complex formation emerged from the ground beneath his feet, and Xia Feng happened to be standing at the center of the formation.
The tall and beautiful cherry blossom tree above trembled slightly, and the scattered cherry blossoms instantly condensed into a few flower arrows.
Swish—As soon as Xia Feng looked up, he had no time to react. The flower arrows seemed to have locked onto his position, disappearing from where they were and reappearing in front of his brow in the next instant. A bloody hole appeared between his eyebrows, and countless pink petals, along with spiritual light and fresh blood, scattered on the ground from the back of his head. Xia Feng slowly tilted backward, his dark pupils vacant as he gazed at the sky.
This cherry blossom arrow was terrifying in both power and speed. At such a close distance and with a surprise sneak attack, even a Pu Wu expert would be severely injured. The fourth-stage Xia Feng couldn’t react at all and was instantly finished.
This was the price of casually approaching wild animals! Mu Qingtong silently mourned for Xia Feng for 0.01 seconds in her heart, then looked up at the heights. A second flower arrow condensed on the cherry blossom tree, aiming at her shoulder, ready to be fired. However, Mu Qingtong remained still, not moving. The attack range of this flower arrow was only ten meters in radius, which was the area of the delicate pink formation beneath the corpse of Feng.
As the spirit body of the corpse Feng completely disintegrated, the azure fox curled up under the tree slowly got up, and the pathetic look in its long, curved eyes instantly disappeared. It stepped forward, and its tall figure surprisingly stood up slowly, transforming into a human form. Finally, it turned into a black-haired woman wearing an azure dress with seven fox tails swaying behind her.
This scene even puzzled Xia Feng from the overhead perspective. A fox spirit? A monster? Did such things exist in this world? Xia Feng’s current state allowed him to observe this fox woman from every angle without blind spots, yet he still couldn’t figure anything out. However, the fox woman’s face was not alluring like a fox spirit, but rather delicate and elegant. Combined with a plain azure long dress, it added a touch of noble and ethereal temperament. Her beautiful eyes were indifferent, and her aura was ethereal.
Her smooth, white bare feet lightly stepped on the sea of petals as she slowly approached Xia Feng’s corpse. Her indifferent eyes glanced indifferently over the entire body of the corpse, then she extended her palm towards Xia Feng’s face. As a green halo surged in her palm, Xia Feng’s body began to bleed profusely. Countless blood threads seeped out from his skin and floated up into her palm. Soon, her pale complexion gradually became rosy, and the injuries on her ankles and calves also began to heal visibly.
Xia Feng couldn’t help but frown. Was this the ability of a spirit artifact that healed by absorbing blood? But he didn’t receive any information prompts. Although it was a bit strange, Xia Feng didn’t immediately revive and sneak attack the fox woman. Mu Qingtong also did not make a move, but stood in the distance and watched silently. Both wanted to observe the specific abilities of this fox woman.
However, just as they were puzzled, the fox woman’s breathing suddenly became rapid. She frowned and brought her palm to her nose to sniff. The scent of the blood threads gathered in her palm quietly entered her nostrils, and her ethereal pupils uncontrollably contracted inwards! She lowered her hand, looked at her palm with a stunned expression, “This blood…”
In doubt, the azure-dressed woman glanced at the man’s corpse on the ground again, a conflicted and hesitant expression appearing on her face. After a moment of contemplation, she glanced at the Q-Masked Man standing far away, who had not fled or shown any signs of attacking, likely still observing and hesitating. She no longer paid him any mind; with the cherry blossom tree and the multilayered traps she had arranged beforehand, this masked person couldn’t break in.
With a thought, she leaned down and knelt on the man’s body, her delicate hand pinching his jaw, and wiped the skin on his neck with a wet wipe. After wiping it three times in a row, she pursed her lips, took a deep breath, narrowed her eyes, and leaned down, her red lips touching the man’s neck. She bit down hard.
The corpse had only been dead for a few seconds, and the blood was still warm, carrying a metallic腥 taste.
!
However, as it flowed into her stomach, a unique warmth infused her heart, nourishing her soul. Her pupils widened, indeed, it was dragon blood! And it was supreme god-tier dragon blood with its true name!
Sensing this, her biting and suckling became more intense, and her breathing grew rapid. Xia Feng, observing in secret, was startled because he suddenly clearly felt his blood surging within that woman, being absorbed by her. What shocked Xia Feng even more was that as his blood was absorbed by the fox woman, her spirit pressure and aura began to surge, slowly rising. Accompanying this was an extremely dangerous feeling that a certain seal was about to be broken.
Xia Feng’s heart turned numb, feeling that he could no longer remain a bystander and had to kill this woman first! This fox woman was definitely a heaven-defying figure. At the very least, she couldn’t be allowed to continue absorbing it so recklessly!
Mu Qingtong also noticed the fox woman’s abnormality and, without hesitation, activated her spirit artifact ability—
The corpse Feng’s eyes suddenly opened, and as the cross pattern in his eye sockets turned brilliant gold, he raised his limbs and directly locked the fox woman’s body. The fox woman’s pupils contracted sharply. Before she could react, her mind felt a sharp stinging pain as if pricked by a needle. In her trance, a colossal bloodworm even invaded her soul unimpeded.
At the same time, her spiritual sense detected a K-Masked Man, identical to the corpse, suddenly appear behind her. He pulled his bowstring taut, and a terrifying light arrow gathered with a buzzing sound, its arrowhead aiming directly at the center of the back of her head. Fire—a close-range headshot!
“Boom!!!”
The fox woman had no time to figure out what was happening and exploded along with the corpse beneath her, her soul disintegrated, and not even bones remained!
Swish—The arrow condensed on the cherry blossom tree simultaneously roared and attacked Xia Feng! The formation on the ground shot out countless indigo chains, binding Xia Feng tightly. However, Xia Feng easily dodged the attack by hiding in the Holy Knight Space, and the flower arrows dissipated completely. After a while, his figure reappeared from beside the Q-Masked Man.
However, when he followed Miss Mu’s upward gaze and looked back, he saw a scene that made him unhappy. In the sky, countless faint azure light flows converged towards the center, gradually forming the shape of a graceful woman. Wearing an azure dress and with fox tails, her ethereal eyes looked down, locking onto Xia Feng firmly. She nodded and said indifferently, “It seems you also have the ability to revive. That’s good.”
“…”
Good for nothing, Xia Feng was speechless. The woman’s eyes were very strange, like the cold gaze of a fox spotting prey. Clearly, this dead fox spirit regarded him as a blood bag!
“One of the four Saintesses of the Black Moon Holy See.” The Q-Masked Man looked up at the face of the azure-dressed woman in the sky and said lightly with contemplation, “Jiang Qiue, right?”
