Chapter 906: Mysterious Presence!
"Do you think this boy will pass tomorrow? The Demon Emperor always wants chubby little boys, but this boy doesn’t seem chubby enough."
"This boy looks quite promising. Maybe he can pass."
As the dozens of people on the square waited in formation, they also discussed Su Yi.
After silently shedding tears for a while, Feng Qier gently wiped her eyes with her sleeve, then climbed onto a giant rock.
Once beside Su Yi, Feng Qier didn’t speak or even glance at him. She simply sat quietly on the rock, her eyes lifted to the bright full moon in the night sky.
"Poor soul."
With a sidelong glance, Su Yi now realized that this was a woman who had suffered greatly. She was kind and innocent, but in the end, she had been abandoned by her entire clan.
How could the strong and elderly elders of Feng Qier’s clan not see through the scheming methods employed by that sinister old man? It was clearly the result of a joint decision, including Fourth Aunt, who had always been the best to Feng Qier. She must have known that everything had been planned in advance.
Except for Feng Qier herself, most of the family probably knew that this was just a formality and had already decided to sacrifice Feng Qier in exchange for a year of peace for the whole family.
"I was just feeling sorry for you and thinking about what I could do for you, but in the blink of an eye, I’ll be just like you."
After a moment, Feng Qier turned her head and looked at Su Yi. With a few strands of hair gently swaying in the wind, her fair face gleamed in the moonlight. Her eyes had a touch of melancholy, but also a hint of charm.
"I heard that the Demon Emperor is extremely cruel. Any girl sent to him would be ruthlessly tortured. They say it’s terrifying, that it’s better to be dead than alive. I would rather die now, but I can’t even die now, because I know that if I die, there will be one less girl in the tribe, and another girl will suffer. And then, that girl’s parents and loved ones will be very sad. But I’m all alone anyway, if I die, not many people will be sad, right…"
Feng Qier looked at Su Yi and forced a smile on her face. The smile seemed strained on her delicate face. She continued, "All that they have done, they thought I wouldn’t know. I also wanted to believe that I couldn’t see it myself. I also wanted to think that this was the result of my own choice, at least it would make me feel better. But why did they do this? Elder Law Hall secretly changed my token, the elders, Elder Feng Yue, those strong warriors, how couldn’t they see through it? Aren’t they my own people? Am I not part of this tribe?"
Even if they told me directly, for the sake of the whole tribe, I don’t think I would hesitate.
But unfortunately, my most beloved family members wanted to keep it from me, thinking I wouldn’t know.
They don’t know that it only makes my heart ache even more.
Perhaps, by doing this, it will make them feel a little better in their hearts. If I pretend not to know, it will make them feel a little more relieved in their hearts…"
As Feng Qier spoke, her eyes became filled with tears. Her teeth clenched her red lips, feeling very uncomfortable and aching inside.
"This woman is not stupid, she actually noticed."
Su Yi was surprised. He always thought that Feng Qier hadn’t discovered anything, but it turns out she knew everything, yet she didn’t show it. She pretended not to know in order to make those people feel more comfortable.
"Ah…"
Su Yi sighed inwardly, not sure whether to say this woman is something or just genuinely kind.
"I was raised by my tribe since I was little. Since they have chosen me, I will consider it as repaying the kindness of my people."
As Feng Qier spoke, tears flowed down her face. Her lips were already marked with the redness of her tightly bitten silver teeth. She said, "But I still feel a lot of pain, it’s so hard for me… "
Feng Qier’s emotions seemed to be getting more and more excited. Her delicate body trembled, and in her sparkling eyes, deep inside her clear gaze, a faint blackness suddenly appeared. There was a vibrant energy emanating from her, gradually spreading throughout her body.
Su Yi immediately sensed this kind of energy. For Su Yi’s current strength, it was not particularly strong, but he felt an extreme discomfort.
This uncomfortable feeling even affects Su Yi’s Supreme Chaotic Yuan Technique and his Heavenly Yuan Demonic Soul in his mind.
The strange smell spreads around Feng Qier, diffusing from the air like black smoke, lingering on the giant stone and spreading around.
"Such a strange smell."
Su Yi becomes increasingly surprised, as this smell gives off a sense of being able to corrode and destroy everything it passes through.
"Be careful, Feng Qier is having another outbreak!"
"Oh no, should we inform the elder? It seems like Feng Qier is having a relapse."
The faces of the ten people on the square change drastically. They feel the smell diffusing from the air, their expressions changing suddenly, instinctively retreating, seemingly afraid of the smell.
"Feng Qier, wake up! You will hurt yourself like this, wake up!"
Outside the square, a figure quickly emerges, swift in movement, their feet generating energy as they climb up the giant stone, reaching Feng Qier’s side and shouting loudly, "Feng Qier, wake up, wake up!"
This is a young man who is about the same age as Feng Qier, around twenty-one or twenty-two years old. He is dressed plainly, wearing a tight-fitting, strong shirt. He is slim but strong, with a kind face. His big eyes are black and lively. He shakes Feng Qier’s shoulders with a serious and worried expression.
Feng Qier heard a loud shout and gradually the deep black color in her eyes faded away. Then, her whole body trembled, and she looked at the young man in front of her. Suddenly, she snapped back to reality, with a worried look in her eyes. She said, "Feng Pu, why are you here? Am I having another episode? Are you okay? Why are you so foolish? You were so close to me when I had an episode, you could get hurt."
"I’m fine, you need to control yourself, otherwise, you will hurt yourself too."
The young man named Feng Pu shook his head and looked at Feng Qier as she regained consciousness. A mischievous smile appeared in his dark eyes. He took out a small white night pearl from his mouth, which shone brightly and appeared hazy under the moonlight. He said, "Look, I always carry this spiritual pearl with me. With the pearl, you don’t have to worry about having episodes."
"That’s good."
Feng Qier finally breathed a sigh of relief, as if she knew that when she had episodes, she could harm the people around her.
"Thank goodness, everything is fine now."
A group of about ten people in the distance also breathed a sigh of relief.
Su Yi looked at the young man in front of him. It turned out that this was the Feng Pu Feng Qier had mentioned. It seemed that Feng Pu liked Feng Qier, but Feng Qier didn’t know.
