Chapter 604 - 600: Symbiosis
Those were the days when he disguised himself as Wen Nanxi and appeared by her side.
She treated him as her Beast Husband; they shared a bed, and she cooked and did many things for him.
But what did he do in the end?
He killed her!
"Ugh..."
Nan Feng could hardly withstand those memories, his whole body in pain, his soul seemingly trembling, causing him to cough up blood in agitation.
"No... no..."
At that time, he didn’t think he was wrong.
He hated all females back then and had no Emotional Silk, so he naturally wouldn’t be emotional.
He thought that by erasing Wen Nanxi’s attachments, it would allow her to merge with him.
But only during that period did he feel the sensation of being loved, of having a wife.
How could Luo Leshuang compare to her?
Yet, he was bewitched by Luo Leshuang to want to kill her.
Oh, at that time, Luo Leshuang used an Evil Technique to make him believe he was infatuated with her.
Now that he regained his memory, he realized that when he had Emotional Silk, he should have liked her.
After all, she was the Snake God’s destined bride; as their avatars, they would all be irresistibly drawn to her.
How could he have wanted to harm her?
He should not have lost the Emotional Silk.
If he had Emotional Silk and feelings, he would never have harmed her in the slightest.
But back then, he couldn’t feel any change in mood.
He was like a walking corpse, doing many things, even killing her.
Just thinking of the scene where he killed her, Nan Feng almost collapsed.
It was as if countless knives were twisting in his heart, causing his whole body to tremble in pain, even making breathing hurt.
"I’m sorry, I’m sorry..."
Tears streamed uncontrollably down Nan Feng’s face.
In his heart, he kept apologizing to Su Muyao.
But he had no right to speak, no right to ask for her forgiveness.
He had no right to appear before her.
He had no chance to make amends, nor had he treated her well.
Yet that period of time was truly the warmest, though brief, it was so beautiful.
Previously, without Emotional Silk, he couldn’t experience this.
Now that he understood, it was too late.
Being merged was fine; this way, he would be erased and disappear, which could be considered avenging her.
At this moment, Nan Feng no longer resisted; instead, he actively fused with Wen Nanxi.
Because of his strong willingness, the fusion was very fast.
As Nan Feng was about to disappear, he finally used the last bit of his consciousness to convey his words to Wen Nanxi.
"She is Luo Leshuang, over a hundred thousand years ago, she found me and used the Heavenly Mechanism Skill to set a trap, making me think I fell in love with her..."
"Later, I realized she only wanted my Emotional Silk to use me for her own purposes."
"She uses Emotional Silk and my blood to perform divinations. She excels in divination and has now calculated that Su Muyao’s existence can affect her master, the Chaos Wild Beastman, so she wants to kill Su Muyao."
"Although she’s currently only here in Spiritual Body, she is proficient in using the Dark Array for attacks..."
"They have lived for a long time and have studied the Witch Clan’s abilities. If she expels all her Spiritual Body Power, she can open a breach in the Fox Clan’s Barrier; protect her, and also, I’m sorry..."
"In my Space Ring, there are many treasures left for her, just please don’t tell her."
Nan Feng had never asked anyone for anything. Even when Luo Leshuang treated him that way and left him severely wounded, he never said a word of plea.
When he said these words, his tone was filled with deep sorrow, regret, and he was slightly choking up.
This was probably the first time in over a hundred thousand years that his emotions had been so fragile, so embarrassed.
He was willing to merge with Wen Nanxi without any reservations.
Because at this moment, he knew clearly that only Wen Nanxi could protect her.
And the one she most wanted by her side was also Wen Nanxi.
After speaking, Nan Feng’s final consciousness dissipated, completely merging with Wen Nanxi.
Wen Nanxi’s Ancient Celestial Snake form changed from Six Heads to Seven Heads.
Wen Nanxi did not expect to hear such words at the end.
Perhaps because of Nan Feng’s non-resistance and willingness to merge, Wen Nanxi quickly gained all his Power, merging Divine Souls.
So his body didn’t hurt as much.
Soon, he merged with Jing Chu.
At this moment, both his and Jing Chu’s consciousness and Divine Soul Memory were retained.
They belonged to a symbiotic relationship.
But since it’s symbiosis, complete symbiotic fusion requires a longer time.
Wen Nanxi was extremely anxious, worried that he wouldn’t be able to stop Luo Leshuang in a moment.
But no matter how anxious, the fusion must be completed successfully; otherwise, if interrupted midway, they would all die.
However, when in a state of fusion, the surrounding energy field is extremely powerful. It can stagnate everything around, and no one can interrupt them.
...
Within the Qingqiu Mountain Fox Clan, thunderclouds rolled, and roaring sounds were constant.
Above the sky, thunderclouds surged like ink, covering the entire expanse of the Fox Clan’s territory, with relentless rumbling.
Bolts of extremely thick lightning had already torn through the clouds, bearing a dazzling halo, and descended upon the sky over the Fox Clan.
Fortunately, the barrier held them back.
"Boom..."
The deafening roaring sounds exploded continuously, resembling the roar of an ancient giant beast, carrying a world-destroying pressure.
Possibly because the Lightning Tribulation was continually intercepted, the thunder seemed to carry wrath, constantly roaring.
The immense sound made the earth tremble three times in response.
Su Muyao dared not leave her room and could only stay here, as it was relatively safe.
At this moment, she was truly weak and unable to muster any strength.
However, the members of the Qingqiu Mountain Fox Clan could see the instant the Lightning Tribulation struck the barrier.
The golden light veil that shrouded the perimeter of the Fox Clan trembled fiercely, like a lake surface swept by a storm, with ripples spreading in concentric circles.
The entire barrier was constantly shaking under the impact of the Lightning Tribulation, seemingly about to shatter at any moment.
But on the surface of the barrier, countless ancient talisman scripts floated, and these scripts seemed to possess life, flowing and wandering on the barrier, emanating powerful energies.
Each talisman script flickered with dazzling golden light, appearing in midair, forming a tightly knit protective net that layered and reduced the power of the Lightning Tribulation.
If Su Muyao saw this, she would know these were Ancient Witch Words.
Even so, facing such intense Lightning Tribulation, the barrier’s shaking became more and more severe, and some of the Ancient Witch Words even dimmed briefly, clearly showing that the power of these Ancient Witch Words had reached their limit under the impact of the Lightning Tribulation, and seemed unable to withstand this force.
But the Lightning Tribulation showed no sign of stopping.
Su Muyao had a faint sense of unease in her heart.
So much time had passed, yet Jing Chu hadn’t returned, and the Lightning Tribulation continued to strike down.
She didn’t even know when this thunder would stop, it seemed relentless until it struck the egg.
Su Muyao lowered her head to look at the egg on the bed.
The egg was entirely snow-white, with a faint green sheen emanating from it.
Looking at this green sheen, Su Muyao felt a sense of peace.
This was the original aura belonging to the Ancient Celestial Snake.
However, at this moment, the egg seemed affected by the Lightning Tribulation and was violently restless.
The eggshell kept making "thump thump" sounds, as if the snake child inside was trying to break free.
It seemed to carry a faint aura of unease, gently swaying.
Su Muyao placed her hand on the eggshell to soothe it: "Don’t be afraid, don’t worry, mommy is here, your daddy is also guarding you."
Strictly speaking, Jing Chu was also his daddy.
Xiao Jihan guarded Su Muyao and them in the room.
He stood by the door, watching the commotion outside, feeling that the movement was too great.
At that moment, Da Bao’s voice seemed to come from not far away.
"Ah..."
Su Muyao’s face changed, "It’s Da Bao!"
Su Muyao was already worried about Da Bao, letting Da Bao stay in the Fox King Hall, where the Qingqiu Mountain Fox Clan’s defenses were the strongest.
And she stayed here with the snake child, also worried that in case of sudden situations, at least Da Bao would be safe.
Xiao Jihan’s heart was tense.
"Normally, Da Bao staying in the Fox King Hall, with elders guarding, would be safe."
The elders promised to protect Da Bao with their lives.
Su Muyao said, "You go and see, I’ll be fine here."
"There are many Defensive Magical Artifacts here, and even arrays set by Jing Chu; I have many life-saving items here, nothing will happen."
"Da Bao cannot be in trouble."
If it weren’t for her current weakness, she would want to go see herself.
Su Muyao’s face was pale, and she was extremely tense.
"Jihan, please, Da Bao is crucial."
Xiao Jihan said, "Okay, I’ll go check and be back immediately."
The moment Xiao Jihan left, a distinct "zzz" sound echoed in the room, like electricity piercing through the air, even resembling the sound of something passing through the barrier, with a strange fluctuation of spiritual power.
Su Muyao’s heart tightened, and she looked up sharply, only to see the air in the room suddenly twisting, with a faint "ah" sound, seeming to be a sound of pain.
Subsequently, a black figure appeared out of nowhere, slowly solidifying into a woman with a sinister face.
