Before a period of time, violet and a snow together in the building city guerrilla, make the snake tribe up and down the chicken and dogs, and then a snow was captured, but violet ran away without a trace, angry bad snake tribe. During this period of time, this psychic dragon leopard has been hiding in the city of buildings, lurking, when it saw me and Fei Hong in danger, it rushed out to bite and kill the snake girl, spraying fire to drive away the snakes, and before the other snake girls came, it took us away and hid in a safe place.

　　The hiding place was in the collapsed and ruined Bilou, the ruins of the dilapidated building were covered by a lot of broken pieces of earth and stone wall panels, from the outside it was impossible to see the inside at a glance, but inside there was a small gap to look out. Looking around, the half-rotten food, fairly clean drinking water, not too narrow space, is a very ideal hiding place.

　　Looking out from this side, he saw that the Snake Clan was carrying something, one big box after another, constantly moving towards the west, travelling in a hurry, and there were even shackled slaves of other clans among the members of the carriers, showing the eagerness of the Snake Clan.

　　“Strange, there’s actually an outsider coming in from the Snake Clan’s side? What the hell is going on?”

　　Although the need to search for intruders and perform spell rituals had left the Serpent Clan currently understaffed, the sight at hand was still rather suspicious.

　　(It can’t be that they know the three clans are going to take action, so they’re preparing to retreat first!)

　　I thought like this, but I couldn’t find anyone to discuss it with. After Violet brought us to this shelter, she proudly walked out from the other side, completely disregarding us and running off somewhere; as for Feather Rainbow, physically and mentally exhausted, she collapsed on the ground after being brought here, unable to get up anymore.

　　Neither of them can be considered as a battle force, I am not suitable for hard sparring with the enemy because the beast king fist is suddenly out of order, and Fei Hong is still bound by the bug body …… and according to my estimation, even if the bug body is unlocked, she may only have the third level of power left now, and I am half a catty, just taking advantage of the moves and the beast demon.

　　The only thing we can do now seems to be to wait for the chaos on the Lou Cheng side. But the evolution of the situation seems to be beyond mastery, maybe it will evolve into a preemptive strike on the side of the Snake Clan It is not certain, and, if we are discovered …… before the outbreak of the battle, I don t want to become the raw material to fill the water portion of the blood pool.

　　(For fuck’s sake, that rotten bitch Phineas, there must be something wrong with the attachments she sent, otherwise why would the good Beast King’s Fist suddenly disappear?)

　　Speaking of freebies, I suddenly remembered the “Anything Goes Jar” she had given me, which had come in handy twice in the past, and could it be turned into something good to turn things around?

　　Taking the jar out of my arms, I closed my eyes and shook it while praying and cursing that cunning demoness, Phineas, and after a short while, the empty jar suddenly crunched and something extra appeared.

　　Filled with eagerness, I shook the jar hard enough to get its contents out, and heck, I shook out a small wooden box that was larger in size than the mouth of the jar.

　　How the hell did this thing get through the mouth of the jar? I was very puzzled, but across the board it was a technical problem of the demon’s, not mine, so I didn’t have to think much about it.

　　However, although the light is dim, this small box looks more and more familiar to me. When I touched it in my bosom with a doubtful heart, I almost did not curse out, because this small box had been kept close to me the moment before, and it was the thing that I had taken out from the crystal stone when I explored the Feather Clan’s secret cave at night the night before. Phoenix this gift to borrow flowers to offer Buddha, real but not cost, really play a hand of good calculations.

　　(You bitch, you use this kind of tactics to fool me?)

　　Cursing in my heart, I leaned over and picked up the box, but I didn’t realise that the wooden box, which I couldn’t open with all my efforts, actually opened with a “kala” sound. Under the light, there was a thumb-sized, red diamond-shaped gemstone like blood.

　　(What is the demoness trying to imply? How can this stone help me?)

　　With doubt in my mind, I took a closer look at the stone. Not like an ordinary ruby, when I held it in my palm, in addition to feeling a distinct flow of heat warming my palms, I also detected a wave of magical energy that slowly vibrated and rippled through the space.

　　Is it some high-performance, high-quality magical stone? However, high-quality magic stones, although they can focus the energy that passes through them and even multiply their effectiveness, they are all auxiliary effects, and they must be set on some powerful divine weapon in order to produce an effect, but they have little lethality on their own. The only divine weapon I have at hand is the Hyakki-maru, do you want me to set the gemstone on it so that the much more powerful divine sword will be able to cut through the chains and save Asuka?

　　Good idea, but I’d have to rush down the mountain, maybe even miles away, straight to the southern barbarian border, in order to find a workshop with enough skill to complete the transformation of this divine weapon, which requires a considerable level of casting and magic. As of now, this method is simply too slow to help.

　　(shit …… what a shitty way to ……)

　　Holding the gem firmly in my hand, I thought about the many possibilities, and maybe I was thinking in the wrong direction, because the gem gave me a sense of déjà vu, I had seen something similar in the past, I just couldn’t remember where I had seen it for a while …… Was it some magic props shop? Or was it an exhibition of the works of the Alibudar Academy of Magic?

　　Still, at least the box was opened, so it’s not nothing ……

　　Just contemplating, suddenly next to me came a thin sharp breathing, turn my head to see, Fei Hong holding her calf, curled up in a corner, forehead straight sweat, seems to be quite painful. I immediately remembered that she had just been bitten by a snake during the battle, and did not do anything to deal with it, now more than likely something is wrong.

　　Without further ado, I scurried closer and, despite her struggles, took hold of her ankles and lifted her tender, smooth calves.

　　Fei Hong’s body, always only wearing the cloak sent by Bai Lan Xiong, was I so hard to hold the ankle lift, the posture is very embarrassing, two petals of the rounded little buttocks exposed, not to mention, forced to wide open between the legs, the delicate lips of the flower is still flashing half-dry beads of dew, sexy and provocative to the extent.

　　“You ……”

　　“Cut the crap, you know exactly what our relationship is and what the situation is now. Unless you take the initiative to beg me to fuck, I won’t touch you.”

　　With this assurance, I took out a small knife, and first cut crosses on the already blackened wound, followed by placing that powdered calf on my mouth, the boss reluctantly helped her suck out the venom. In the southern barbarians walking travellers, each will bring some life-saving medicinal herbs, which naturally have the magic special effect medicine against snake venom, I helped Fei Hong put on the medicine, but also thanks to her internal fundamentals are good, there has been in the movement of power to resist poison, or else delayed so long to deal with, legs have long been wasted.

　　The whole process was strangely silent, and since Fei Hong was willing to co-operate and not take the opportunity to kick me in the face; I didn’t take advantage of the spreading of her legs to stick my fingers inside that delicate pink honey flesh and stir it up. But perhaps because it was so stuffy, I couldn’t help but speak.

　　“In fact, I really don’t understand you guys, you didn’t give birth to the child, you didn’t lay the egg, do you need to sacrifice so much?”

　　“You don’t understand because you don’t know how to love, and therefore won’t sacrifice for what you love, and can only plunder it by vile means ……”

　　It’s been a while since I’ve heard such a strong tone from her, and I glance over at her to see what other critical words she has to say. Feather Rainbow seemed to be avoiding a flap with me, changing the subject as she averted her gaze.

　　“Even if I don’t understand, how much better is a young lady like you than me?” I said, “If you didn’t come from a prestigious family, have a first-rate master, and have the Light Divine Palace as your backing, would it be possible for you to be so naive as to play the game of justice? You must be regretting it, right? If it wasn’t for the sake of coming to Southern Barbarians to be a justice messenger, you stupid chick could still be having gay sex with your sister all day long right now!”

　　I knew these words were very venomous, so after saying them in one breath, I immediately watched out for Fei Hong to turn her shame into actual action and took two steps back.

　　But instead of fuming as I expected, Feather Rainbow just spread both her hands on her lap as if she was thinking about something, and only after a long time, she sighed quietly and said, “Stupidity? Maybe it’s like this ……”

　　“Huh?”

　　“I also …… don’t like to talk like this all day ah. Do you think my sister and I don’t know? You guys are always laughing at us behind our backs, looking at us as two dull girls with no brains. Even Senior Brother Fang …… although he didn’t say it out loud, he must also see us as that kind of martyrdom maniacs, look at that kind of look in his eyes …… I know it.”

　　At first it was just sobs, but by the end of it, Feather Rainbow cried out and said, “But there’s no way out, if we can’t even believe in something like justice will win in the end, then we simply don’t know what to believe in and live ……”

　　With these words, I came into contact with a part of Fei Hong’s heart that had always been unknown to me, the deepest side of her that had always been hidden underneath her delicate, young girl’s appearance, and it also made me realise why there had been so much incongruity in her over the past few days. Why had her strength and resistance repeatedly exceeded my expectations? Why did she always break down and give in for reasons that surprised me?

　　“Brother Fang said that there isn’t an instructor named Blue Eagle in the Kingdom of Alibda, so you’re not an officer, but from what you’re saying, you should still be an educated noble, right?”

　　“Well, yeah, aren’t you?” Education was not a universal right, and apart from the nobility, only commoners of a certain level of affluence could afford to pay high tuition fees, as was true in all countries.

　　“Not …… not in the beginning. After the Phoenix Island disappeared and the Feather Clan fell apart, none of the clans have had a good life, and my sister and I are certainly no exception.”

　　“We two sisters have never seen our parents since we were born, and to this day we don’t know what our parents are …… Perhaps they were killed long ago somewhere. The ones who raised my sister and I were a group of elders of the Feather Clan, who found a bamboo basket placed on the doorstep, which contained my sister and I, as well as a letter left by our mother …… A lot of this sort of thing went on in those days, as they themselves became the targets of being tracked down, and after entrusting their children to their clan members in the mountains, they themselves once again became the bait ground to leave, sacrificing themselves so that their daughters could grow up safely in the the guardianship of her compatriots to grow up in peace.”

　　As if immersed in memories, Fei Hong’s words no longer carried the sound of crying, but simply said quietly, “My sister and I weren’t the first pair to be adopted there, and we certainly weren’t the last. Until we were two years old, there were dozens of little sisters there, and we didn’t have much time to play, because we had to hide from the trackers, and had to secretly escape in the mountains almost every few days, or else the beasts would find us. Each time, if they couldn’t escape, they sacrificed one of their compatriots and took one of the Little Sisters they had drawn by lot as bait to lure away the enemy.”

　　Thinking of the scene where Katrina sacrificed herself to cover Feather Rainbow, it’s not hard for me to imagine the situation.

　　“The so-called life is just a constant running, hiding, sacrificing, and then running again …… My sister and I secretly vowed that when we grow up we must only chase people and never be chased again. Back then, we were scared to death every time we had to draw lots, but no one ever ran away because it was an honour to be able to sacrifice oneself for the continuation of the group. We also never lost hope, the elders always said over and over again that evil can’t defeat good, and that one day, we will wait until justice and righteousness are brought back to the Southern Barbarians, so that evil will be duly punished, and the Feather Clan will regain a bright new life.”

　　Feather Rainbow said, “You think it’s silly, don’t you? That’s how we felt at that time. Who would believe that kind of dream talk …… that can’t even fool a child? If the gods and justice can really be served and give the Feather Clan a bright new life again, then why not let the Feather Clan be at peace from the start? Mum wouldn’t be separated from us, and we wouldn’t have to have nightmares every time we drew lots, and to this day, we still wake up every morning, still afraid that as soon as we open our eyes, we’ll become captives of the orcs ……”

　　I was speechless. At times like this, I have absolutely no idea what to say, maybe this girl doesn’t need me to say anything, she just doesn’t want to be left with the wrong impression until she dies.

　　“But what can we do if we do not believe? In time, we prayed like this in earnest, for if we cannot even believe in such dreams as evil triumphing over good, and that justice will surely triumph in the end, then where should we look for hope? What reason should we use to tell ourselves why we should still live?”

　　The voice was not loud, and the young girl’s seemingly calm speech contained untold amounts of hurt, and I could feel her desperate attempts to repress it from her fingers, which were gripping tighter and tighter.

　　“What cannot be escaped is not escaped after all. When I was two years old, I drew a lot and had to go out by me to be the bait, my sister didn’t want to be separated from me, so she left with me, and it wasn’t long before we were captured by the orcs……. We were both very scared, but we were really lucky, because when the orcs handed us over to the slave traders, it just so happened that master passed by and saved my sister and me, taking us as disciples and teaching us martial arts and gave us a new life in the human world.”

　　Feather Rainbow took a breath and reached out to wipe away the tear stains on her face, saying, “Master wanted us to forget our unpleasant childhood, and my sister and I have been trying to forget it, but the more we try to forget it, the more we can’t forget it. In the end, my sister and I aimed to carry out justice and arrest the culprits. I don’t believe in this, but there must be people in this world, there must be children who look forward to the day when justice will be done and today’s nightmare will be reversed. Although my sister and I aren’t blessed with such a beautiful dream, at least we can help other children fulfil their dreams and give them a good night’s sleep.”

　　What kind of life is it to know that what you believe is ridiculous, but to live all day long repeating lies that even you don’t believe? What kind of girl is she?

　　This should be a non-issue with me, but ……

　　“We, the Feathered Clan, seem to keep repeating the same life over and over again, constantly sacrificing the lives of the previous generation for the next generation, each of us placing our hopes in the future, by devouring the lives of our mothers, our clansmen, in order to gain survival. But why doesn’t everyone think of those left behind before sacrificing? Why didn’t Mother and Aunt Katrina ask me before they sacrificed themselves? I would have preferred to be taken with them than to be rescued and survive alone. I would have hated it, and swore with my sister before I came here that I would never let anyone be sacrificed like that again ……”

　　The young girl’s crystalline teardrops cut heartbreaking traces on her pale cheeks. Exposing these wounds that have never healed, she should be very sad, but why …… do I seem to see her smiling?

　　“Ha …… However, all of this is no longer relevant. Going back to help the clansmen is my own choice, the result should come after all, even if I escaped for more than ten years, it’s still the same, evil can’t win over good or can’t win over the weak, those who don’t think of themselves get what they deserve, can’t guard the clansmen, and can’t guard themselves either, my soul, my dream …… are all dirty and rotten, and my body is still turning into this way, it will never be the same again, use it as you like while it is still useful and worthy of being sacrificed.”

　　The young girl smiled and looked towards me, while I actually unconsciously tried to avoid her gaze.

　　“Heh, maybe I should be snickering thankfully, losing my virginity to a human is at least luckier than losing it to an orc. Humans aren’t as rude and are very tactful, and have really given me a good time, what about you? What does it feel like to rape a girl? Was it good? I bet you had a great time, didn’t you? Because you laughed so hard every time you pinned me down and fucked me ……”

　　“Enough!” I, who should have been bullying and yelling this back, fell prey to the young girl’s sneering smile. I’d encountered a lot of accusations in the past, but I’d never seen a smile so hard to face.

　　“Why should I stop? One night husband and wife, we have slept together for so many nights, I haven’t had a chance to say thank you yet …… haha, I don’t even know what your name is yet? You know what? I used to wake up from nightmares every night, and the thing I was most afraid of was seeing an extra beastman next to me, but …… it’s really so funny ooh, I’ve prayed so hard, why did I wake up and still see you, this beast, sleeping next to me?”

　　“Say no more.”

　　“It’s so strange yo, obviously I prayed very earnestly every day, hoping that you would choke to death, fall to death, be broken into pieces by the orcs, and go to die with that group of orcs …… Why, why did you just not die, and continue to appear next to me? And …… why do I have to be saved by you? I’d rather die in that group of beastmen, as long as I can see you being torn to pieces by them as well ……”

　　After saying these words dreamily, the tears that the young girl had forced herself to suppress came out of her eyes, and, covering her face with both hands, she bawled her eyes out.

　　Mournful sobs, through the palms of the hands covering my mouth, echoed low in my ears. Unconsciously, I slowly walked towards Fei Hong with mixed feelings.

　　The strongest of the weak is the supreme truth I believe in, and because of my cunning and good use of timing, this girl’s virginity and flesh were the spoils of war I deserved, and there was no need for me to feel guilty. However, looking at Fei Hong’s tears, I suddenly wanted to reach out and wipe them away.

　　I put this idea into realisation.

　　“Sorry ……”

　　I didn’t mean to say this, but at this moment, I can’t find anything else to say except these three words. At least, “I’m sorry” is more appropriate than “I love you”, right?

　　“Wow!”

　　A wipe, a few light pats, seemingly impossible things happened. The young girl lay on my chest and cried out unreservedly, her tears quickly staining the lapel of her coat, and when the cloak slipped off and the sexy, seductive torso was laid bare, there wasn’t an ounce of lust in my heart, just a gentle pat on her naked back like I was petting a kitten.

　　It doesn’t matter who hates who or who wants who dead, at the moment we’re just two people who need to support each other, that’s all.

　　“Please, help me save those children, save one more clan member, one more child, even saving one more foetal egg would be good, I can’t let so many of my compatriots be sacrificed like this, if the Feather Clan is finished like this, then what we did in the past is meaningless.”

　　Feather Rainbow tearfully put down her pride and pleaded with me, her enemy. But this request is not to buy jewellery or rouge and pollen, the fact before us is that we are just two weak things, unable to deal with the Snake Clan and incapable of saving anyone from the Orcs.

　　“I’m sorry, but we really can’t do this right now ……”

　　“No, you must have a way, at least, you can help me unlock the bug body ah. Although my power has weakened a lot, but as long as I unlock the bug body, I can still more or less do something, the bug body was placed by you, you must have a way to unlock it.”

　　I, who wanted to make amends to Fei Hong, wished very much that I could do something for her, however, the insect body came from Phineas, so unless a master of the art or a martial artist of the sixth level of cultivation came to unravel it, it would be impossible to unravel it at all.

　　Seeing my difficult silence, Fei Hong thought that I was deliberately putting it off, and even begged in a low voice, and even took the initiative to hold my hand, and pressed it on her soft and firm breasts.

　　“I can make a poisonous oath that as long as you help me unlock my insect body, I will definitely not harm you or seek revenge on you. You really want to save your female disciple don’t you? As long as you unlock my insect body, I can help you save her, and also, as long as you are willing to unlock your insect body and help me save people, this body of mine will be at your disposal from …… now on, please ……”

　　The young girl’s plea distracted me, and all sorts of thoughts came to my mind, but I never came up with a workable solution. Even if calling out Phinex and being blackmailed by her for a wish to understand the worm body is not something I’m too willing to do, but the rest of ……

　　Suddenly, a thought flashed through my mind that this might be a hint from the witch that I knew what the ruby was.

　　I pushed Feather Rainbow away and took out the crimson diamond shaped jewel and looked at it carefully. After a retrospective comparison, this jewel taken from the Feather Clan’s secret cave was extremely similar to something like what I remembered.

　　Similar hardness, similar warm feel, similar colour, similar magical fluctuations ……

　　“If this really is the Dragon’s Prana, then we might be able to ……”

　　“I have to say it again, now that we’re in the same boat, I really do have the heart to help you, but this method is very dangerous, if you get it wrong, you’ll lose so much that you won’t even have a chance to turn over your money, and you’ll die. Do you really want to bet on this shop?”

　　Unwilling to take unnecessary risks, I stated my concerns very carefully to Featherhung.

　　This diamond shaped ruby, I don’t know the actual origin or what its purpose is, but judging from the appearance and touch, it is very much like the Dragon’s Prana in a dragon’s brain. The Dragon’s Prana, a polymer that contains the essence of a dragon’s entire body, is a treasure that is hard to find, and with my unique spell, I once implanted the Dragon’s Prana of the Water and Fire Demon Sculptor into my beloved concubine, Weizhi Loneria, and it allowed her to increase her magical power overnight, transforming her into a dragon warrior of the Water and Fire Dragons.

　　Feather Rainbow’s own martial arts skills were not comparable to those of Weizhi, and if this ruby was indeed the Dragon’s Prana, after casting a spell and incorporating it into my body, my power would skyrocket, and it might be possible for me to break free of the bug’s body in one fell swoop. But this tantalising possibility is contradicted by too many realities. First of all, I’m not at all sure about this gemstone, in case it’s not the Dragon’s Prana, wouldn’t it be asking for trouble by casting spells haphazardly?

　　Even if this really was the Dragon’s Prana, the tricky part had only begun. The implantation of the Dragon’s Prana had to be coupled with a Succubus spell from the Succubus magic book. The main catalyst for such a spell is the Celestial Blood taken from Asuka’s body, I’m usually prepared and secretly kept some on me, now that I have it on hand, it’s not a problem.

　　However, something like the Dragon’s Prana was the essence and energy of an entire dragon, compressed within a small stone, and if it was not suppressed beforehand with the spell of the Seal of the Dragon in conjunction with the rest of the items, then the moment the energy was released, the host would be subjected to extremely high temperatures, and would die instantly and tragically.

　　The dragon seal that was initially applied on the water and fire demonic auger’s spirit was a spell cast by a group of monks from Nalivia, I myself don’t have such a high level of skill, and of course I don’t have the means to add a dragon seal on this nameless ruby. In addition, we are also missing the rest of at least forty kinds of auxiliary herbs, ores, animal limbs, in haste, also not as good as with the status of the day and time, so recklessly casting spells, simply no different from suicide, even if the fusion of forced success, the power of the great increase, it is likely to last less than a few hours, the body of the explosion of the tragic death.

　　After thinking about it, I was really reluctant to tell Fei Hong that I didn’t really want to take any chances.

　　“You don’t need to think something more, even if there are any problems, it’s not you who will be sacrificed.” Feather Rainbow said, “Even if it’s only a few hours of power it’s enough, as long as I help you save Sister Asuka, you have nothing to lose, right? The rest of …… my life, what will happen to my body, that is my own business.”

　　Rainbow returns to calling Xue by the nickname “Sister”. Xue’s dedication, sacrifices, and tears for the children had proved her innocence and earned her the respect of Yu Hong.

　　And it’s hard for me to refute what Feather Rainbow said, it’s obvious that she is in a kind of self-defeating idea, however, the purpose of a spell like this one is originally to drastically shorten the lifespan and use it to exchange for a strong power, when she herself has such an intention, I don’t know what to say, not to mention that, I really do need a good hand to help me to break the enemy and save the lives of the people.

　　Feather Rainbow said, “If you want to help me with anything, use this method to help me, and if there’s any danger, I’ll take it on myself.”

　　“I know, let’s put up a fight then.”

　　I helplessly began to prepare the spell. Things were difficult from the start, and even drawing a magic formation was technically difficult. This wasn’t a ritual hall, nor was it spacious, it was just a half-destroyed room that wasn’t small, but wasn’t spacious enough to draw magic formations, which were usually done with either blood or ink, but I didn’t have either of those on hand.

　　Finally, looking at the wooden stick hastily drawn on the ground, the runes almost all squished together in a blur of indistinguishable magical formations, my palms broke out in a cold sweat, and I was almost tempted to ask to give up.

　　(And this works? Then there is no such thing as irrationality in the world ……)

　　I tried to persuade Feather Rainbow again, but her expression was resolute. She didn’t expect this spell to be successful at all, but waited for the worst to come, even if she could only regain her power for a few hours, that would be enough for her, even if she didn’t even have the power for a few hours, she didn’t have the will to live, and planned to die right there and then.

　　When I had finished drawing the magic formation and Featherhong had followed my instructions, after a few deep breaths to even out her breath, she lay down in the centre of the formation and placed the ruby into her warm mare, reaching out to push her fingers slightly deeper.

　　The sensitive flesh, which had been continuing the afterglow of the pleasurable lust of just a moment ago, when a foreign object invaded the jade valley, and the fingers tussled back and forth on the stamen, the nectar soon stained the walls of the flesh, allowing the ruby to slide in slowly along with the mucus.

　　Lying down in the centre of the magic formation, Feather Rainbow closed her eyes, and her curled up pair of legs slowly spread apart in front of me, revealing her beautiful pink flower room.

　　“I’m ready for you …… to come up.”
