At these words, Sikong Ling was stunned and stammered, "Why, why, why... Why?"
"Cut off my left hand, and I will give you back your real brother. Hurry up," Sikong Jing said emphatically.
He desperately suppressed all the devouring power in his left hand.
But, if it was not cut off, the power would bounce back, and the Demon Heart inside him seemed to know what he was planning, as it frantically pulled at this power, trying to suck it back into his body.
Meanwhile, Sikong Ling was bewildered again.
The mention of her brother made her face instantly anxious, while the cold emotion induced by the "Supreme Forget Love Technique" suddenly filled her heart, making her heart, which had softened, become a bit more ruthless and calm.
She immediately judged that if she did not cut off the hand of the human-shaped demon beast, it would be very dangerous, and her brother would be in danger too.
Thinking of her brother, she did not hesitate at all.
With a clang, she drew a sword that gleamed coldly, swoosh...
A cold sword light swung toward Sikong Jing’s swollen left hand, and with a puff, the entire pitch-black arm was chopped off.
When the pitch-black arm fell, the surrounding area seemed to burst with waves of intense Demonic Qi, and rolling Demon Smoke, knocking Sikong Ling backwards, slamming hard against a large tree and sliding down.
But she quickly lifted her head to look at the human-shaped demon beast in her eyes.
The next moment, she was astonished and unbelieving.
She saw the originally fierce face of the human-shaped demon beast gradually soften, not raging in fury despite having an arm severed, his blood-red eyes even beginning to regain brightness.
Gradually, the Demon Wings behind him started to shrink until they withdrew into his body and disappeared.
The black scales on his body also began to fade, slowly reverting to human skin.
This miraculous scene left Sikong Ling incredulous, and then she began to cry, her delicate hands fiercely covering her mouth.
Because she saw the face of the human-shaped demon beast after the scales receded, she subconsciously screamed, "Brother, brother!"
Crying out, she ran desperately towards the direction of her brother, falling due to her haste, but she immediately got up and continued running, continuing to cry, "Brother, brother..."
At this moment, she finally realized that the human-shaped demon beast was her brother.
Meanwhile, Sikong Jing slowly raised his right hand and, smiling, gave Sikong Ling a thumbs up, "Ling’er, well done."
After speaking, he fell backwards to the sky.
He fell heavily to the ground and passed out, with only the voice of Sikong Ling reaching his ears, still calling "brother, brother." A slight smile appeared on his face, and he closed his eyes happily.
In the Ten Thousand Beasts Sky Prison, the beasts looked at each other and then all took a deep breath.
The Divine Turtle muttered, "It turns out that the Master of Ten Thousand Beasts thought of this tactic while devouring power. He first suppressed the Demon Heart with the strong will of the Beast Heart, saved his sister, and then concentrated the devoured power in his left hand for his sister to chop off the arm."
At this, even the ageless Divine Turtle’s eyes flashed with a hint of admiration.
"So determined, this is our Master of Ten Thousand Beasts," the Dark Winged Dragon Eagle couldn’t help but exclaim, his eyes shining.
At that moment, the Colorless Spider hesitated, "But this is really risky, it’s very dangerous for the Master of Ten Thousand Beasts to lose an arm ."
"Even if it can grow back in the future, it’s probably going to significantly affect him for now," the Absolute Night Wolf King said gravely.
As the Master of Ten Thousand Beasts, it was natural that he could regrow an arm, but it was not possible at the moment.
The challenges he faced in the future would become difficult.
Just then, a demon dragon resembling a lizard slowly emerged its head from underground.
It slowly said, "Don’t worry, in a moment I will show the Master of Ten Thousand Beasts the meridian linking point on my tail, so he can use my meridian to reconnect his arm, and slowly convert it into a normal arm."
As the Demon Dragon spoke, all the beasts around lit up.
The Black Prison Swallowing Sky Tiger flew down and couldn’t help but praise loudly, "Exactly, the tailless dragon lizard might be weak and cowardly, but it is definitely a master at perfectly regenerating limbs."
The tailless dragon lizard, exactly the lizard-like creature there, would break off its tail to distract enemies whenever it was scared. Therefore, it was unparalleled in limb regeneration among all demon beasts.
"Black Prison Swallowing Sky Tiger, cowardly my sister, weak my sister."
"I am the Dragon Lizard King now, how long has it been since I last lost my tail?"
Clearly, the tailless dragon lizard was quite annoyed by the Black Prison Swallowing Sky Tiger’s remark and kept cursing under its breath.
However, all the beasts present burst into laughter. They had completely released the tension they had felt before—it turned out they had underestimated the Master of Ten Thousand Beasts. Their worries were indeed superfluous.
With the tailless dragon lizard there, the Master of Ten Thousand Beasts’ arm could be reattached very soon.
Outside, half a day passed in the blink of an eye.
Suddenly sitting up from his slumber, Sikong Jing growled, "Dad, Mom..."
After speaking, his misty eyes slowly regained their clarity, and he saw a face full of anxiousness.
Sikong Ling’s voice trembled as she asked, "Brother, are you okay? Did you have a nightmare?"
Sikong Jing paused, then looked around...
He was in a shady corner under a large rock, his sleeping spot was softly padded with dry grass, and nearby, a campfire was boiling water vigorously.
All of this was done by his sister, Sikong Ling.
He reached out with his right hand to grasp where his left arm used to be—it was empty and slightly painful, but it had already been treated with medicine.
Seeing her brother’s actions, Sikong Ling couldn’t help but cry and said, "Brother, it’s all Ling’er’s fault. Ling’er personally cut off your arm, Ling’er is really so useless."
Sikong Jing gave a slight smile, pinched Sikong Ling’s round face with his right hand, and then hugged her tightly, saying deeply, "Brother was just dreaming. In the dream, I was taking Ling’er back home to see Dad and Mom."
"They all praised Ling’er as the best for making the critical decision to cut off Brother’s arm at the crucial moment, thereby saving Brother’s life."
He could not bear to see his sister feeling guilty and sad.
Sikong Ling, with tears in her eyes like pear blossoms touched by rain, looked up into her brother’s eyes.
"Brother, are you lying to me again?"
Sikong Ling’s eyes were watery, feeling that her brother always liked to use kind lies to comfort others.
With a slight smile, Sikong Jing replied, "How could I, now that I have finally found Ling’er? How could I bear to lie to Ling’er?"
Blinking her large eyes, Sikong Ling was somewhat skeptical.
But now, she didn’t know what else to say.
Her emotions were a mix of excitement and guilt, having recognized her brother but also having caused him to lose an arm.
She truly hadn’t expected that her brother was a human-shaped monster.
Even though cutting off an arm was for her brother’s sake, had she not been in danger, he wouldn’t have lost an arm.
Thinking back to everything at the Wangyou Sect, recalling when her brother transformed into a monster to save her, then thinking about the tears he shed for her as the Absolute Night Wolf King, while enduring not to recognize her...
Suddenly, Sikong Ling’s emotions shifted from guilt to sadness again. Back then, her brother must have been suffering even more than she was.
"Ling’er, I’m thirsty," Sikong Jing suddenly said with a smile.
