Chapter 759: Please Let Me Die in Peace
During that time, Bai Li Pang Pang would often provoke the Thunder Beast whenever he used the Forbidden Ruins for various reasons. He would take the opportunity to tease it, so to speak, making it a routine to pull its tail every three days or so, and every five days for a bigger tease, almost rubbing its tail bald.
Whenever the Thunder Beast was about to unleash divine punishment, he would simply use the power of all things to pull its tail, deflecting its attack. Over time, Bai Li Pang Pang became the number one on the Thunder Beast’s kill list.
Bai Li Pang Pang had no doubt that if the Thunder Beast could jump down from the clouds, it would be the first to stomp him to death.
“Isn’t it that serious?” Cao Yuan looked up at the storm clouds, “I think, since you provoked it so much before and it didn’t come down, it shouldn’t this time either…”
Whoosh—!
Before Cao Yuan could finish his sentence, the deep blue giant beast above the swirling lightning clouds suddenly exerted its limbs, carrying endless thunder and fierce winds, and rapidly descended to the ground with a roar!
Cao Yuan was left speechless.
“It’s over.” Bai Li Pang Pang’s expression turned rigid, “That thing… is not something we can handle.”
…
Somewhere in Tokyo.
Uncle Jingjie walked through the deserted, remote streets and arrived at an open space. He reached for the 【Mysterious Eye】 at his waist, and a faint golden light flickered from the blade.
In the void of the open space, a small house appeared.
An Qingyu watched this scene with a look of surprise in his eyes.
It was the first time he had seen the power of the 【Mysterious Eye】 with his own eyes. Even before the illusion was dispelled, his 【Only Correct Answer】 couldn’t detect anything unusual here, which showed just how terrifying the power of this blade truly was.
If given the chance, he really wanted to study this blade thoroughly…
An Qingyu’s gaze towards the 【Mysterious Eye】 grew fervent.
Uncle Jingjie led An Qingyu and Jialan into the house, quickly stepping inside.
The room was clean and tidy. Although there were many ingredients and snacks on the surrounding tables, it didn’t appear messy. It seemed Uncle Jingjie paid great attention to the cleanliness of his home. An Qingyu took a quick look around the room and finally focused on the white-haired boy lying on the bed.
He saw Yuzuri Takuhaku quietly lying on the bed, his long snow-white hair cascading from the pillow to the floor. His brow was tightly furrowed, his face devoid of color, and even his breathing was extremely weak.
An Qingyu walked to his side, a hint of gray flashing in his eyes.
“Indeed, it’s a genetic defect outbreak, just as I expected.” After confirming Yuzuri Takuhaku’s condition, An Qingyu nodded.
“So I gave him the medicine?”
“Yes.”
Receiving An Qingyu’s affirmative answer, Uncle Jingjie walked to the bedside, bringing the test tube he obtained from the disaster and holding it to Yuzuri Takuhaku’s lips, making him drink it.
Then, Uncle Jingjie sat by the bed, anxiously waiting.
Boom—!!
A terrifying roar echoed from the distant sky.
An Qingyu and Jialan’s expressions changed simultaneously as they rushed to the window to look outside. They saw the massive deep blue beast roaring with its mouth wide open amidst the swirling lightning clouds, then it stomped heavily with its limbs in the clouds and fell directly from the sky!
Thud!!!
The enormous body of the Thunder Beast crashed to the ground, causing the entire surface of Tokyo to tremble violently. At the point of impact, all the small houses were crushed to pieces by an invisible shockwave, and the towering buildings shook violently before collapsing.
Its arrival felt like the end of the world, and the people around went into a frenzy, fleeing in all directions!
Thick smoke instantly obscured the sky.
Seeing this scene, An Qingyu’s expression turned grave.
Earlier, when Bai Li Pang Pang had summoned this Thunder Beast, he had already used the 【Only Correct Answer】 to analyze its strength. Although it was still not on par with the two true deities he had encountered in the mist, its level was definitely above the human ceiling.
The spirit of a divine artifact could also be considered a mythological being in another sense.
Such an existence coming down personally meant that within Tokyo… no, throughout the entire “human realm,” there might not be anyone capable of resisting it.
This was a serious problem.
“Should we go help?”
Jialan looked at the location where the Thunder Beast had landed, which was near where Lin Qiye had been, her eyes filled with worry.
“Let’s go.” An Qingyu pondered for a moment before decisively nodding.
He absolutely could not let Lin Qiye face that kind of monster alone.
Although their 【Nightfall】 team, even if fully mobilized, would definitely not be able to withstand a single attack from the Thunder Beast, they couldn’t just abandon their captain to escape…
Moreover, just in that fleeting moment, An Qingyu had already thought of a way.
This method might be able to withstand the Thunder Beast’s attack, or perhaps even kill it…
However, this method was not very friendly to Cao Zai.
But if they were truly pushed to a dead end, this might be their only way out.
After a brief moment of hesitation, An Qingyu stepped up to Uncle Jingjie and said:
“I’ve checked your son’s condition. He has already taken the medicine, and he should wake up soon. He will be fine.
If all goes well this time, our team will leave here quickly. I estimate it will take me three to four months to create a medicine that can completely cure him. When the time comes, I will send someone to deliver the medicine to him, so you can rest assured.”
Uncle Jingjie nodded, “I believe you.”
An Qingyu replied with an “Mm,” then quickly walked to the door but paused.
He turned back to look at Uncle Jingjie, who was sitting beside Yuzuri Takuhaku, opened his mouth, and finally asked:
“Are you… really not considering becoming my test subject?
If I inject you with the stiffening agent now, you might still have a chance to survive…
Even if the chance is small, it’s better than having none.”
Uncle Jingjie saw the seriousness in An Qingyu’s eyes and a faint smile appeared on his pale lips.
“As for me…
I’ve lived my life as a gigolo, enjoying a lifetime of glory.
I’m used to being carefree,
In the end, I don’t want to die like a monster…
Especially… in front of my own son.”
Uncle Jingjie turned his head, gently stroking the forehead of the unconscious Yuzuri Takuhaku, a tender smile appearing on his lips:
“Please allow me to die quietly as a qualified father.”
Upon hearing these words, An Qingyu’s pupils trembled slightly. He stood at the door for a long time before finally nodding.
“I understand…” he said, “Then, farewell.”
“Mm.” Uncle Jingjie smiled at him, “Farewell, and I wish you a smooth journey home…”
An Qingyu took one last look at him and, together with Jialan, stepped out the door.
As soon as they crossed the threshold, the small house behind them quickly faded from the air, disappearing without a trace, as if it had never existed.
