Chapter 35 Is the baby who drinks milk the peak of the God King? Zhu Zhuqing's desperate gamble
Meanwhile, dozens of miles away.
A team of several dozen people stopped on the ravaged battlefield.
They gazed into the distance.
The terrifying aura that shot into the sky and then suddenly dissipated seemed to linger in one's field of vision.
Everyone frowned, their expressions filled with surprise and doubt.
The woman at the head of the group was exceptionally beautiful.
She was dressed in spotless white, with a tall and graceful figure.
Her black hair cascaded down to her waist like a waterfall.
Her features were exquisitely beautiful, her skin was fair and radiant, and her eyes were like autumn water.
At this moment, however, her eyes, like autumn water, were filled with an unyielding solemnity.
She is Xia Youyu, an outstanding successor of the Butian Pavilion in modern times.
"Disappeared..."
Xia Youyu murmured softly.
Her pale fingers unconsciously twirled a strand of hair.
"The aura of that ferocious bird has completely disappeared."
"Miss, something's wrong."
An elderly man with gray hair and a sharp face spoke in a deep voice beside him.
"That monstrous beast just slaughtered a city of a million people a few days ago, devouring the blood and essence of all living beings to solidify its embryonic essence. Its ferocity is at its peak, almost comparable to the best in the Spirit Transformation Realm. How could this be..."
"How could he suddenly disappear without a trace, as if he had been wiped out from the world?"
Xia Youyu took over the conversation.
A look of disbelief crossed her stunningly beautiful face.
"Unless... he was murdered."
"Murdered?"
The dozens of elites from the Heaven-Mending Pavilion behind him gasped in shock, their faces filled with horror.
That is a pure-blooded descendant of the ancient divine bird, the Peacock King.
On the outskirts of this vast wilderness, it was almost a dominant force.
Who can kill him silently?
"Let's chase after them and see!"
An astonishing light flashed in the old man's eyes, and his beard trembled slightly.
"Miss, no matter who did it, we must get that five-colored peacock egg! It is a descendant of a pure-blooded species. With careful nurturing, it may be able to reproduce some of the power of its ancestor—the Primordial Peacock King!"
Xia Youyu nodded.
With a wave of her jade-like hand, her voice was clear, cold, and decisive.
"Everyone, conceal your presence and proceed with caution."
...
Half an hour later.
Following the faint traces, Xia Youyu and her group quietly made their way to the edge of a clearing in the woods.
The sight that came into view left these well-informed elites of the Butian Pavilion collectively stunned.
A small bonfire was burning in the center of the open space.
Two people were sitting by the campfire.
A little boy, about seven or eight years old, was covered in dirt and his hair was a mess like a bird's nest.
He was holding a colorful egg, about the size of a human head, with a shimmering, iridescent shell, and sucking on it vigorously.
A small opening was bitten open at the top of the eggshell.
He was slurping the glistening egg yolk into his mouth with a "smack, smack" sound.
Beside them, a girl in black was carefully heating a jar of milky white animal milk in a stone bowl.
The girl was stunningly beautiful and possessed a cool and aloof demeanor.
His brows furrowed with fatigue and a hint of restraint.
It was Zhu Zhuqing and Shi Hao.
At this moment, Zhu Zhuqing's heart was shaken like a raging storm.
After a somewhat difficult half-hour exchange, she had confirmed that the dirty little boy in front of her, whose features were obscured, was from Stone Village in the previous sky.
The only thing is that the age doesn't seem to match.
Not long ago, he was just a three or four-year-old baby drinking milk, but now he looks seven or eight years old.
Perhaps the flow of time in the two worlds is completely different.
What made her heart pound and almost suffocate was the information she received when she secretly tried to use the "identification" function of the Sky Screen to look at Shi Hao:
[Target: Shi Hao]
[Strength Assessment: Peak God-King Realm!]
Zhu Zhuqing's hand holding the stone jar had slightly white fingertips.
She recalled how her strength instantly soared to the level of a quasi-god after she exchanged the broken bloodline and treasure of the Primordial Peacock King.
But compared to this carefree little one sucking on the egg yolk...
Her "miracle" was nothing short of a laughable bubble.
"but..."
Zhu Zhuqing took a deep breath, forcing herself to calm down.
A resolute glint flashed deep within his cool, clear eyes.
"That's why... he is my only hope to survive in this terrifying world, and even to gain greater opportunities!"
At this moment, Shi Hao let out a loud burp.
A look of satisfaction mixed with distress appeared on her little face.
The divine essence contained in the five-colored peacock eggs is too abundant.
He had only inhaled a little bit when he felt warm all over, his blood was rushing, and he felt a little "full".
He reluctantly took the egg away from his mouth.
Looking at the remaining egg liquid, and then patting his round little belly, he muttered to himself.
"I'm so full... but it would be such a waste to throw it away..."
Upon seeing this, Zhu Zhuqing quickly handed over the warm animal milk she was holding.
Soften your voice.
"Have some milk, it'll help you settle down."
Shi Hao's eyes lit up, and he took the stone bowl.
He gulped down several large mouthfuls.
Although the spiritual energy contained in this ordinary beast milk was incomparable to what he had drunk before, he just loved the taste of "milk".
I immediately felt much more comfortable.
He wiped his mouth.
His bright black eyes looked curiously at the soul ring behind Zhu Zhuqing, which was not yet fully concealed and was faintly visible.
He scratched his messy hair.
"Your… circles of various colors, I think I've seen something similar before. What a strange 'magic technique,' it looks… well, quite intimidating."
Zhu Zhuqing's heart stirred.
She immediately seized the opportunity.
A perfectly timed hint of sadness and longing appeared on his face.
Low voice.
"You've seen him too? That might be… my uncle's. His name is Juyue Guan. He came to this wilderness a few years ago, saying he was looking for something… Unfortunately, he's never been heard from again. I'm his only niece, and I'm risking my life to come here this time, hoping to find any trace of him…"
As she spoke, she carefully observed Shi Hao's reaction.
Sure enough, upon hearing this, Shi Hao paused in his breastfeeding.
A complex emotion flashed in his dark, bright eyes.
He remembered that blood-red night.
It reminded me of a giant, all-encompassing hand.
These past few days of experience have given him a deeper understanding of the "survival of the fittest" principle in the Great Wilderness.
That golden-armored man... is probably just dust under this cruel law.
He remained silent for a moment.
They didn't respond to the topic of Chrysanthemum Douluo.
He just whispered it.
"The Great Wilderness... is very dangerous."
Zhu Zhuqing keenly caught his fleeting emotion.
I know I made the right bet.
She immediately struck while the iron was hot.
A heartbreaking glistening of tears quickly welled up in her eyes.
His voice trembled with helplessness.
"I... I have no family now, and I'm wandering alone in this desolate place. I have no idea where to go or how long I can live..."
...
Douluo Continent, beneath the sky.
"You beast! You even lie to children!"
"Let go of that brat! Let me handle this!"
"Zhu Zhuqing, have you no shame? When did Chrysanthemum Douluo become your uncle?"
Countless people watched Zhu Zhuqing's "Best Actress" performance and were filled with envy, jealousy, and hatred, their eyes turning red with envy.
Anyone can see that this little brat is no ordinary person!
As a result, Zhu Zhuqing actually used the name of Chrysanthemum Douluo to deceive him, attempting to latch onto this incredibly powerful figure!
This is simply...
"Shameless! Despicable! Base!"
