A month passed in the blink of an eye.
The strange thing was that no danger had appeared on Bloodmist Island during this month. Everyone on Bloodmist Island had been cultivating peacefully for a month!
The only thing they did during this month was cultivate, cultivate, and cultivate. What they needed to do was to wantonly consume resources and strive to become stronger.
Yushu, with the support of a large amount of resources, finally crossed the bottleneck two days ago and entered the Spirit Transformation Realm.
But today, the Yushu Clan was a little special!
At this moment, everyone in the Yushu Clan was celebrating!
They took out all the food and water to share. They talked to each other, and some people even did strange and ugly dances. Everyone's faces were filled with happy smiles.
Yu Shu was surrounded by the crowd, wantonly throwing a tantrum. He was jumping around excitedly, completely like a child.
Of course, with their age, they were still children.
Leng Shiqi sent out Zi Yu to patrol everyone in the sky. Then, he sneaked into a tent when no one was paying attention.
Usually, this tent stored a large amount of the Yushu Clan's weapons, but they were going to enter the Blood Tower tomorrow, so all the spiritual weapons were distributed.
At this moment, there were only a dozen or so unranked weapons left in the tent. Leng Shiqi's target just happened to be these weapons that no one wanted.
"A dozen or so unranked weapons and my remaining system coins should be enough for two intermediate lottery draws," Leng Shiqi muttered to himself as he walked into the tent.
During this month, Blood Fog Island seemed to have completely fallen into silence. Not only did they not cause any trouble, but even the demon beasts had disappeared.
This gave Leng Shiqi, who wanted to obtain system coins, a headache, so he could only set his sights on his own home.
Leng Shiqi casually picked up a scimitar and naturally waited for the system prompt.
However, the strange thing was that after a few breaths of time, the system prompt did not appear!
"Hmm?"
Leng Shiqi blinked in confusion and flipped through the weapon in his hand, but there was still no system prompt.
Then Leng Shiqi picked up several other weapons, but the result was the same.
He couldn't help but frown as he muttered, "What's going on?
Did the system malfunction? "
He then pulled out the dagger hidden at his ankle, and a system message immediately appeared before his eyes.
"Worth 29 System Coins. Do you wish to sell?"
"No."
Of course, Leng Shiqi couldn't sell this Level Two Spiritual Tool, but at least the System Notification appeared. After pondering for a moment, he seemed to have thought of something.
He immediately walked out of the tent and borrowed a Level One Spirit Tool from someone.
"It's worth 17 System Coins. Will you sell it?"
"No."
Leng Shiqi returned the weapon. He had an answer in his heart, but it was an answer he did not want to accept.
That was, after the upgrade, the system no longer needed those low-grade resources!
Leng Shiqi didn't know if the system's standards were too high, or if it was too arrogant, but the system's change suddenly disrupted his plan.
Just as he was having a headache, Yushu suddenly appeared and pulled Leng Shiqi away, shouting as he walked, "Come, come, come, I'll pull the Dark Crow over."
Immediately, a group of people rushed over and surrounded them in the middle. They danced and shouted, "Brother Ye,
"Oh, oh, oh, oh."
"Roar, roar, roar, roar."
Endless enthusiasm instantly drowned Leng Shiqi, and he didn't know whether to laugh or cry. However, he could only put aside all the doubts and guesses in his heart and celebrate with everyone!
This was the first time since he came to this world that he had let down all his guard and vigilance. Perhaps this would also be the last time.
Under the blood-red sky, a group of young men who came from nowhere and whose names were unknown were dancing with all their might.
After a long time, the tired people went to rest. Today, no one was arranged to keep watch, but Yushu and Leng Shiqi personally kept watch.
At this time, Yushu was leaning against a wooden chair, gnawing on a fruit with difficulty, burping from time to time.
Leng Shiqi directly sat on the ground, leaning against a wooden pillar.
The blood-red sky outside was not far from their camp. In about a day or so, it would devour the camp. In other words, tomorrow, they must enter the blood-red tower.
Whether they live or die, it will be decided tomorrow!
To be honest, even Leng Shiqi was not confident in his own heart. After all, no one knew what kind of danger they would encounter.
As for whether they could survive in the end, he did not know.
The fear of the unknown had always been in everyone's heart, so tonight was their first and last time to celebrate.
"Hehehe, don't you think it's strange?" At this time, Yushu's voice came, pulling him back from his thoughts.
Leng Shiqi glanced at him and asked cooperatively, "What's strange?"
Yushu continued, "We're about to enter the blood-red tower, but I don't feel nervous at all. In fact, I feel a little excited when I think about it."
"I heard that if a person is extremely hungry, they won't feel hungry anymore."
"Eh?
Are you saying that I'm afraid? "Yushu said unhappily.
"It's normal to be afraid. Who on Blood Fog Island is not afraid at this time?"
"What about you?"
Leng Shiqi laughed self-deprecatingly and said, "Of course I'm afraid. I'm afraid of dying here."
"Oh, okay. I admit that I'm afraid too."
"… I thought you would hold on a little longer."
"Hahaha, you've admitted it. What's there to be afraid of? But Brother Leng, don't you think I'm really funny?" Yushu's voice suddenly became serious.
Leng Shiqi glanced at him and asked, "How are you funny?"
Yushu pondered for a moment and said, "In the past, when I formed the Yushu Clan, I didn't have any feelings for the people under me. I only saw them as tools. Of course, they might have seen me like that too.
But we've gone through so many hardships together, so many storms to get to where we are today. How can I be heartless to them? "
At this point, his eyes were a little red and he continued, "But, but when I have feelings for them, I still have to continue using them as tools!
Especially tomorrow!
I can't bear it, but I have to do it because I want to live!
I don't think I'm wrong, but I feel guilty in my heart. I'm in pain!
I don't know what to do. Haha, don't you think I'm funny? "
Leng Shiqi listened to him quietly. He thought that Yushu actually had such a side to him. He thought for a moment and asked, "Do you know what a cold-blooded animal is?"
Seeing Leng Shiqi suddenly ask such a question, Yushu was a little confused, but he still replied, "Snake?"
"Yes, but you might not know. There's an animal whose blood is ten times, a hundred times colder than a snake!"
"What animal?"
Leng Shiqi said a word softly, "People."
Yushu frowned.
"People are the most cold-blooded animals in the world, including you and me.
So you don't feel pain at all. Do you think you have feelings for them?
You're wrong. That's just what you think. "
Leng Shiqi looked at Yushu with a look of disbelief and continued,
"If you don't believe me, I'll only ask you one question. Do you remember who Qishui is?"
"Qishui …" Yushu opened his mouth. He clearly knew this person, but when he thought of him, he couldn't remember who he was!
Friend?
Enemy?
Oh, so he's my subordinate. He's the one who helped me build the foundation of the Yushu Clan.
He's dead. He seems to have died in the battle of puppets. What does he look like again?
Thinking of this, Yushu suddenly felt a chill down his spine. He couldn't help but shiver. It seemed that even his blood was frozen.
After a while, Yushu laughed softly, but gradually, his laughter became louder and louder. He even laughed until tears flowed out of his eyes.
Yushu raised his hand and wiped the tears from his eyes. The corners of his eyes were red. "You're right. I'm a cold-blooded animal. I'm asking for trouble."
Leng Shiqi didn't answer. Instead, he looked at the blood-red light in the sky.
After an unknown amount of time, the blood-red light became fainter. He knew that it was almost "dawn".
Yushu stood up and stretched. He seemed to have returned to normal. He looked at the sky and then looked at Leng Shiqi. He said, "Aren't you going to see her?"
Leng Shiqi also stood up. He brushed the dust off his body and said, "No need. We'll meet again if we have the chance."
After saying that, he turned around and walked into his tent. Before he entered the tent, he tossed out something.
Yu Shu stretched out his hand to catch it. Taking a closer look, he saw that it was a white pill.
It was the antidote for the heart destroying pill!
