At that moment, Xigou was trembling all over, unable to even stand.
[Bloodline: Maned Wolf (Level 5)]
[Bloodline Burst Skill: Toxin Wolf Rampage (Lv5, consumes Life as needed, the more Life consumed, the stronger the power)]
[Life Remaining Times: 22]
"Now I have one more life."
"Toxin Wolf Rampage has officially upgraded to a Fifth Level Bloodline Burst Skill!"
Fang Zhixing immediately noticed where Xigou had grown stronger.
Previously, "Toxin Wolf Rampage," although it could enhance combat power to the Hundred Cows Realm by consuming Life, only lasted for a short duration.
But now it was different; as long as Xigou risked his life, he could maintain the strength of the Hundred Cows Realm for a long time.
"Hmm, you’ve finally cured your problem with premature exertion."
Fang Zhixing smiled disdainfully and then his menacing demeanor softened.
Relieved, Xigou took deep breaths, shuddering as his rigid body gradually recovered.
"With this upgrade, you seem to have become much stronger!"
Xigou cautiously glanced at Fang Zhixing, his nose twitching.
Being a dog, he primarily judged the strength of his targets by their scent.
The scent Fang Zhixing emitted was terrifyingly indescribable.
It was fiercer than any Mutant Beast, more aberrant than any demon, and more ghastly than evil spirits!
At this moment, Fang Zhixing seemed neither human nor his former self, as if he had been completely transformed.
A qualitative metamorphosis had occurred!
"Indeed, now even blowing your head off won’t kill you; this is beyond reason."
Xigou couldn’t help but marvel, feeling extremely complicated.
Soon, he realized that his value to Fang Zhixing had plummeted.
He was once again on the brink of being dispensable.
Previously, his abundance of lives was useful for scouting for Fang Zhixing.
But now, Fang Zhixing’s Life was probably even more numerous!
Moreover, he was evolving continuously towards true immortality.
The Fifth Level is Five Elements Undying, the Fourth Layer is Blood Rebirth!
When Fang Zhixing achieves Blood Rebirth, it wasn’t hard to imagine that Xigou would become utterly useless.
A useless thing is a burden!
By then, even if Fang Zhixing didn’t abandon Xigou, Xigou would find it embarrassing to stay by his side.
Such a weak creature didn’t deserve to accompany a formidable being.
Not just Xigou, even the great beauty Jun Yao would face this embarrassing situation.
Although Jun Yao was a peak Ninety Ox Realm prodigy, in Fang Zhixing’s space, she was merely peripheral.
The more Xigou thought, the more depressed he became.
Consequently, even though he also benefitted and improved significantly, it seemed so insignificant.
"Fang Zhixing, do me a favor."
After a lot of thinking, Xigou set aside his pride, and with a humble tone, communicated telepathically.
Fang Zhixing raised his eyebrow, clicking his tongue, "Eh, are you begging or really begging me?"
Xigou broke out in goosebumps, coughed and said, "Don’t be smug, it’s not for me, I’m doing this for Jun Yao."
Fang Zhixing curled his lip, scoffing, "How is Jun Yao your concern?"
Xigou continued, "Jun Yao’s Cultivation has already reached the peak of Nine Ox Realm, but she’s still clueless about her next step.
And you’re not worried one bit, but Jun Yao is really anxious, trying not to trouble you by keeping her worries to herself."
The more Xigou spoke, the bolder he became, presenting himself as a champion for Jun Yao.
Fang Zhixing dismissively responded, "You needn’t trouble yourself over Jun Yao’s matters; I already have plans for her."
Xigou challenged, "You’re bluffing, what plans could you possibly have?"
Fang Zhixing replied, "My original plan was to leave Dan State as soon as possible, and after settling down elsewhere, then address Jun Yao’s Cultivation issues.
But against my wishes! Under the current situation, unless we deal with the Crown Prince, wherever we go, we’re unlikely to find peace."
Xigou objected, "The Crown Prince’s reach isn’t that extensive outside of Dan State!"
Fang Zhixing became stern, seriously saying, "Jun Yao is a beauty. With a lustful Crown Prince in Dan State coveting her, how can you know that nobody else will fancy her once we move?"
Xigou was suddenly at a loss for words.
Fang Zhixing solemnly added, "If we can’t handle the Crown Prince’s harassment in Dan State, the same will happen elsewhere."
He glanced at Xigou, "You’re only thinking short-term. You think the Crown Prince is a problem we can just evade, while I believe in nipping problems in the bud to prevent endless trouble!"
Xigou’s breath hitched, understanding dawned on him.
He and Fang Zhixing had different perspectives and scopes.
In his eyes, there was only the Crown Prince as an enemy!
In Fang Zhixing’s eyes, the whole world was potential enemies!
Everyone Fang Zhixing couldn’t beat or kill was an enemy!
Fang Zhixing looked at Xigou, sneering, "What help do you want? Spit it out quickly."
Xigou sighed inwardly, no longer holding back, confessed, "Remember Yulan County? You stayed there for just a few days while I was outside for seven years, and that gave me enough time to grow."
He bowed deeply, his eyes gleaming with determination.
As proud as he was, he finally bowed down, making a most humble request, "I want you to help me find a similar place, desynchronize our time, allow me to grow, and close the gap between our strengths."
