Injured

Everyone had escaped death, and Red Crystal City was saved. Everyone was so excited that they danced. Some even cried.

The third elder pushed everyone away and quickly ran to the altar.

What had just happened in Red Crystal City happened at the same time in other places where an altar existed.

Soon, all the beasts knew that the golden spots of light emitted by the divine pillar could heal wounds, increase physical strength, and weaken the demons.

When the witch doctors found out about this, they understood why the prophet had asked them to gather around the altar. It turned out that the prophet had expected this day to come.

After realizing the importance of the altars, the various beast cities and tribes sent people to specially protect the altars.

The monsters and demons’ invasion of the beast continent was stopped as they were forced to slow down.

Zhi sneered. “I didn’t expect Lin Huanhuan to have such a trick up her sleeve. I really underestimated her!”

Wu Huo gently stroked the black cat on his knee and said, “If our troops want to continue advancing, we have to destroy all the altars.”

“We can let the demons handle that.” At this moment, Zhi looked around. “Where’s Tao Wei? Why haven’t I seen him in the past two days?”

“There seems to be a problem with the demons, so Tao Wei went to solve the problem. He’ll probably be back in a while.”

“Then let’s leave it at that. Get your men to tear down the altars.”

Although the beasts of Dark Moon City had already joined the demons and monsters, they were still beasts. Compared to the demons and monsters, their chances of success were much higher.

“Leave this to us.” Wu Huo got up to arrange for people.

The beasts of Dark Moon City secretly sneaked into the tribes and beast cities to try to secretly destroy the altars. A small number of them succeeded, but most of them were discovered by the patrolling beast soldiers and killed on the spot.

After their plan was exposed, it could no longer be carried out.

The demons simply began to tear the altars down.

The altar could be used to save the beasts’ lives. Of course, the beasts could not let the other party succeed. They guarded the altars to the death and refused to let the demons approach them.

Unknowingly, the altars had become grounds for the monsters and demons to plunder. There was a small battlefield at almost every altar.

The invasion of the demons was forced to slow down. After obtaining the protection of the altars, the beasts began to counterattack in an organized manner.

The strength of both sides gradually equalized.

…

Huanhuan fell to the ground, her face pale from blood loss. Large beads of sweat flowed down her forehead, and she opened her mouth to pant.

She was too tired.

For the past few days, she had come up the mountain to dance almost every day. She had to bleed before every dance.

If this continued, she would die of blood loss sooner or later.

Eggy flew over and landed beside her. She rubbed her head affectionately against her ear. “Mom, are you okay?”

Huanhuan leaned against her daughter and said weakly, “I’m fine. I’m just a little tired. Let me rest for a while.”

At this moment, the statue beside her suddenly lit up.

Huanhuan raised her hand that was covered in thick cotton and gently pressed it against the statue. She shouted weakly, “Hello, who is this?”

Dong Ya’s voice came from the statue. “Lady Huanhuan, did you make those golden spots of light? You saved all of us. You’re really amazing!”

He was very agitated, and his tone was raised several degrees. He was like a fan who was meeting his idol.

Huanhuan asked, “Is Rock City okay?”

“The demons came to launch a sneak attack just now but were beaten back by us. The injured beast soldiers have also recovered. Now, we’re full of energy and strength. We’re not afraid of those demons at all!”

Huanhuan said, “That’s good…”

Dong Ya calmed down a little. He sensed that something was wrong with Huanhuan’s voice and quickly asked, “What’s wrong? Are you feeling unwell?”

“I’m fine. I’m just tired.”

“Then hurry up and rest. I won’t disturb you anymore.”

After the connection was broken, Huanhuan retracted her hand. She didn’t have any strength left. She couldn’t even stand up now, let alone go back down the mountain.

Egg grabbed her by the collar and flew her down the mountain.

After returning to the temple, Jian Yi was shocked to see Huanhuan’s pale face.

“What happened to you?”

Then, he saw Huanhuan’s palm that was wrapped in a thick cotton cloth. Blood seeped out of the cloth. He quickly asked, “Why are you injured?!”

Huanhuan said weakly, “I’m fine. It’s just a small injury.”

She looked like she was about to die at any moment. It did not look like a small injury at all!

Jian Yi quickly called two divine servants over and helped her back into the house.

Huanhuan lay on the bed and was covered in a thick blanket. Her eyes were dim. “Why do I feel like there are many stars swaying in front of me?”

Eggy quickly asked, “Are you hungry?”

“I’m not hungry. I’m just dizzy and cold.”

Eggy immediately lay down and covered Huanhuan with her wings. She had inherited Xue Ling’s bloodline, so her body was naturally hotter than ordinary beasts. At this moment, she was sticking close to her mother. A steady stream of heat passed through her feathers and into Huanhuan’s body.

Huanhuan felt much better.

Jian Yi unwrapped the cotton cloth and examined her wound.

He originally thought that with Huanhuan’s weak appearance, the wound must be very serious.

But unexpectedly, the wound was not deep. It was a shallow cut.

And this wound was healing at a visible speed.

In the blink of an eye, the wound had disappeared. Her palm returned to normal, leaving no trace.

Jian Yi was extremely stunned.

He looked at Lin Huanhuan, who had closed her eyes and fallen asleep.

The wounds on her body could actually heal themselves.

This was too magical!

Eggy stared at him. “My mother needs to rest. Go out.”

Jian Yi came back to his senses and immediately stuffed Huanhuan’s hand under the blanket. He got up and walked out of the bedroom.

Jian Yi was not the only one who saw that scene just now. The two divine servants who helped Huanhuan enter the house also saw it.

Jian Yi turned around to look at the two divine servants and reminded them sternly, “Forget everything you saw just now. Don’t reveal it. Otherwise, you’ll end up like the first elder.”

The two divine servants hunched their shoulders and lowered their heads. “Got it.”

Although Huanhuan’s wound had healed, she was still very weak. Jian Yi ordered some medicine to be made to nourish her body.

He didn’t notice that one of the two divine servants had sneaked out of the temple.

The divine servant came to the forest behind the temple and met up with He Zong, the king of all beasts, who was already waiting there.

“Your Majesty, I saw that Lady Huanhuan was injured just now.”

He Zong asked, “How did she get injured?”

“I’m not sure about that, but strangely, the wound on her body healed by itself.”

His gaze changed slightly. “Really?”

“I saw it with my own eyes. It’s absolutely true!”
