Chapter 245 - Black Taisui

“Alright let’s stop for now. Once my wounds recover, we can slowly shift them back to the proper location,” said Li Huowang.

Hearing those words, everyone sighed.

Staring at the bloody Li Huowang, Chun Xiaoman finally stopped enduring and fell knee first onto the ground. She crouched and vomited, emptying everything in her stomach.

But there was nothing else to vomit out. She had already vomited twice before this.

On the other hand, Bai Lingmiao shakily stroked Li Huowang’s hair, her eyes filled with tears. She didn’t know what to say.

“Why are you crying? We should be smiling instead! Not only is everyone alive, we even managed to capture the Black Taisui and Han Fu! This is good news. What’s even better? Miaomiao, now I can rearrange my face; anytime you get bored looking at my usual face, you will be able to change it.” Li Huowang did his best to console them.

Li Huowang knew just how bad he looked and just how much pain he was in. But, he had to act tough. If he kept complaining, then not only would his problems not get solved, even their group’s morale would drop as well.

It was something he had learned from Lu Juren’s wife, Luo Juanhua. When you are in a situation beyond your control, you have to act as if it doesn’t bother you so that the people around you don’t end up becoming sad. The original appearance of this chapter can be found at Ñøv€lß1n.

However, Li Huowang had failed to learn the essence of this trickery from Luo Juanhua. The louder he laughed, the harder Bai Lingmiao cried.

Exhausted, Li Huowang finally closed his one remaining eye and said, “I will rest first. We will find our way back once I get up.”

After saying that Li Huowang passed out.

In the haze between consciousness and unconsciousness, something familiar appeared within his mind, bobbing up and down. He wanted to know what it was but couldn’t figure it out.

In between his bouts of consciousness and unconsciousness, he kept forgetting what he was about to do; it was as if his memories weren’t intact.

Suddenly a sea of stars enveloped his mind. Li Huowang suddenly remembered the night where he and Yang Na stayed up to watch the night sky at the rooftop of their school. He realized that he was seeing one of his past memories.

By now, the massive wound on his torso had almost completely healed, while the other smaller wounds had already finished healing. But, his body was still slightly twisted in some ways. At the very least, someone normal wouldn’t have their navel growing on their hips.

But, at the very least, he looked much better compared to when he had just crawled out from the cave. He looked human.

More importantly, his left foot had regrown halfway through. Now, he would no longer have to hobble around everywhere.

After he inspected his body, he did not rest and quickly asked Bai Lingmiao about the Black Taisui and Han Fu.

“No worries. Everything has been prepared, but we have to thank Sun Baolu and everyone else. If it weren’t for all of them, then we would not have been able to haul both of them back. All of us borrowed two cow hide’s tent. We also borrowed two more tents from them and set them up further away from the others. The Black Taisui and Han Fu are being guarded by us. So you can just lie down and rest for now,” explained Bai Lingmiao.

“No, we have to go to the Black Taisui now!” said Li Huowang. He didn’t want to wait any longer. He wore his clothes and directly walked out of the tent.

When he got out of the tent, he saw many people looking at him. At this point, the Qing Qiu people were no longer looking at him with curiosity but with wariness instead.

It was only natural. If they were able to stay friendly despite seeing what Li Huowang currently looked like, then it would be even more unsettling for him.

He greeted them and walked away from the other tents before approaching the two lonely tents a distance away in the grassland.

When Li Huowang was walking over to the tents, he met Lu Zhuangyuan who was herding the lambs back. Lu Zhuangyuan saw the wounded Li Huowang and was surprised. “Young Daoist? I can’t believe that you can already walk around after resting for only ten days! Ha, I knew it! With your supernatural powers, no evil beings can win against you!”

But Li Huowang was completely fixated on the Black Taisui. He didn’t even bother with Lu Zhuangyuan’s flattery.

After confirming that Han Fu’s little head was still alive, Li Huowang entered the tent containing the Black Taisui. This was the most important thing for him right now.

When he entered the tent, he saw that the Black Taisui’s tentacles were impaled onto the ground with spears, imprisoning it within the tent.

Li Huowang circled around the Black Taisui and inspected it. After confirming that it looked the same as the one he had seen within Zephyr Temple, he reached out for the Black Taisui and grabbed a piece of its oily flesh. Then, he carefully cut away the piece of flesh with his dagger, causing the Black Taisui to immediately release a sharp cry as sticky black fluids flowed out from its wounds.

He looked at the piece of flesh in his hand and saw that a part of it was slowly transforming into tentacles. After a moment, he slowly opened his mouth and placed it in.

However, just as he was about to bite down, he paused.
