876 I’m Back
Currently, the entire City of 10,000 Beasts was immersed in celebration.
The beasts walked out of their house one after another and sang and danced with their family and friends. The beasts with better conditions would even get wine and meat to share with everyone.
Huanhuan sat on the divine pillar and looked at the lights in front of her. Her mood was very calm.
They had won.
All the monsters were killed.
This land would not experience the flames of war for a long time to come.
All could enjoy the happiness of peace.
That was enough.
Little Brat suddenly said, “I’ll send you off.”
Huanhuan asked, “Send me off where?”
“You go back to the world you used to live in. If you go there, you might get away with it.”
The wind blew her long hair. She raised her hand and tucked it behind her ear. “I don’t want to leave.”
“Why?”
“I don’t have my family in that world. It’s meaningless even if I go back. I want to live, but I don’t want to live alone.”
Little Brat was speechless.
If it wasn’t for the fact that he had no choice, he wouldn’t want to send her off.
When she was talking to the beast gods, she exchanged her life for the peace of the beast continent.
Now that the war was over and peace had returned to the beast continent, the beast gods had fulfilled their promise. It was time for her to fulfill her promise.
Little Brat said, “I don’t want to see you die.”
Huanhuan smiled. “Then don’t look. When I die, close your eyes and you won’t see anything.”
“Don’t say that. I’ll cry.”
“Come, come, cry in my arms.”
Initially, she just wanted to tell a joke to ease the atmosphere. She did not expect Little Brat to really condense a physical body.
Although it was said to be a physical body, it was actually just a blurry figure.
He buried his head in her arms. “Daddy’s crying. You have to take responsibility until the end.”
When Huanhuan raised her hand, it would penetrate his body. She could only let her hand hover over his back and pretend to be hugging him. She comforted him, “Don’t worry, I’ll definitely take responsibility.”
“You have to take care of me in my old age.”
“Mhm.”
“You’re lying.” Little Brat’s nasal voice was very strong. “You’re about to die, and I’m not old yet. How are you going to send me off?!”
Huanhuan sighed from the bottom of her heart. “I really am an unfilial daughter.”
Little Brat was so angry that he wanted to bite her to death.
“You’re still joking at this time?!”
She said helplessly, “I’ll die sooner or later anyway. Instead of crying my eyes out, it’s better to welcome everything with a smile. At least when I leave, my eyes won’t be swollen. That’ll be too ugly.”
Little Brat responded with choking sobs.
“Your eyes are already bad. If you continue crying, you’ll really go blind.”
“At least it’ll be peaceful if I’m blind. That way, I won’t have to see your angry face again.”
Looking at Little Brat’s crying face, she couldn’t help but chuckle. “I won’t forget you. Don’t forget me either.”
Little Brat immediately cried even harder.
“Boo-hoo!”
When Bai Di, Shuang Yun, Sang Ye, and Xue Ling arrived at the City of 10,000 Beasts, the sky was already bright.
They did not stop to rest along the way and were covered in dust.
The four of them crossed through the city and found Lin Huanhuan, who was sitting on the altar in a daze.
She did not expect the four of them to appear in front of her at this time and could not help but be stunned.
“Why are you here?”
The four of them surrounded her and sized her up. Seeing that she was full of energy and safe, they finally felt relieved.
What was most important was that she was fine.
Bai Di patted her head and said gently, “We were worried about you. We were afraid that something would happen to you, so we sped up to look for you.”
Shuang Yun leaned over and kissed her. “Are you very touched?”
Sang Ye did not speak. He only raised his hand and placed the person who had been struggling to find his mother in Huanhuan’s hand.
As soon as he touched his mother, he immediately wrapped himself around her wrist and rubbed against her palm affectionately.
Xue Ling’s injuries had yet to recover, and his face was still a little pale. “We heard on the way that you were imprisoned. What’s going on?”
Huanhuan recounted what had happened from beginning to end.
After she was done, Shuang Yun gritted his teeth in anger. “That He Zong should be glad that he has already turned into ashes. Otherwise, I would’ve dug him out of the ground and whipped his corpse!”
Bai Di asked, “What about He Zong’s sons?”
They had to nip the problem in the bud. If He Zong died, his sons would definitely not let it slide.
He Zong said, “I asked Leng Xiao to bring the divine guards to hunt down He Zong’s four sons. They refused to surrender no matter what, so Leng Xiao had no choice but to kill all four of them on the spot. Their corpses have already been burned and disposed of.”
Xue Ling praised without hesitation, “Well done!”
Huanhuan raised her small face and said with a smile, “Let’s go home.”
Shuang Yun was a little surprised. “Now? Don’t you need to stay in the City of 10,000 Beasts to deal with the mess you left behind?”
“I’ll leave those matters to Chen Yuan and Jian Yi. I want to go home now.”
Since their wife said that she wanted to go home, they would go home immediately!
Bai Di, Shuang Yun, Sang Ye, and Xue Ling hadn’t even eaten a meal, but they hurried back overnight.
The dark night enveloped the entire beast continent.
The white tiger passed through the grassland. Behind him were the Silvery Frost White Wolf and the python. Xue Ling spread his wings and flew in the air. His fiery red feathers shone brightly in the night sky.
Huanhuan was lying on the back of the white tiger. She pressed her face against his soft fur and asked softly, “Do you remember the first time we met?”
“I remember. At that time, you were naked and fainted from fear.”
Huanhuan continued, “When I woke up, I found myself on your back, just like now. You carried me and ran forward…”
The wind blew past her ears, scattering her voice into the night.
That familiar voice sounded in her ears again.
“Are you ready?”
Huanhuan said, “If I say I’m not ready, can you spare my life?”
The voice laughed softly. “No.”
She closed her eyes. “Farewell.”
‘My favorite people.’
She felt her body turn cold bit by bit as the aura of death enveloped her. Vaguely, she seemed to hear someone crying in her ears. She could no longer hear what they were shouting.
Her consciousness sank bit by bit like a sponge soaked in water.
Just as she was about to lose consciousness, a powerful force suddenly surged over from all directions and rushed into her body!
The power kept spinning and finally condensed into a green heart.
It was the heart of nature.
The voice sighed as if it found this to be a pity. “I didn’t expect those beasts to know how to be grateful. I took your life, but the heart of nature gave you a new life. It seems that I can’t take you away.”
After the voice disappeared, her consciousness suddenly became extremely relaxed.
The voices in her ears became clearer.
“Huanhuan! Huanhuan!”
She slowly opened her eyes and saw Bai Di, Shuang Yun, Sang Ye, and Xue Ling surrounding her. They were so anxious that they were about to cry.
But Huanhuan smiled happily.
She stretched out her arms and hugged her loved ones in front of her.
“I’m back.”
Many years later, someone praised her as a savior who sacrificed herself to save countless lives.
But she was actually just an ordinary woman.
She wanted to protect this land because there were people she loved on this land.
