"If you don't want him to face it, I'll tell him myself!"
Long Ran didn't want his mother to become this evil person later on, but after all, Ye Liu had to know about this.
Looking at her son's back as he walked out of the door without hesitation, Feiyue finally lowered his hand that was stretched out in the air.
She has always been well protected. Perhaps this is the only time in her life that she risked her own life and injured all the loved ones around her, right?
It's because they value her so much that they protect her so thoroughly...
Ye Liu stood outside the temple gate. The clouds and mist lingering under the mountain and the pale golden barrier blocked his way.
Just when the boy didn't know what to do, the pressure of Long Ran's demon power came again, making him even more panicked.
"Don't waste your efforts. There are no cities for dozens of miles around the temple. If you escape, you will be killed by other monsters."
The young man's words reminded him of the scene before his death, and a self-deprecating smile spread across his lips.
"What do you know...what do you, a high-ranking young master like you, know...you are just criticizing me in a condescending manner based on your own identity and status...what do you know?!"
All of his family members left overnight, and even he only survived because he was lucky enough to celebrate his two hundredth birthday.
The saddest thing is not that the one you love deeply leaves, but that you are betrayed by the one you love deeply!
Ye Liu turned around suddenly, his fingers and claws suddenly condensed with purple-black sharp edges, and attacked Long Ran.
Long Ran didn't dodge, or even use his demon power. He grabbed Ye Liu's wrist with one hand, turned slightly sideways, and punched him in the face.
"I really don't understand your Nekomata's experience and feelings. There are no races in the world that completely understand each other. Only the weak will force the strong to think from their point of view!"
The boy was punched by Long Ran and fell to the ground, leaving a ferocious blood mark on Long Ran's face.
"Your mother never asks you to understand! But she is doing it for your own good!"
Long Ran roared angrily, but the truth he told made Ye Liu's mind go blank.
"When I led my sergeants to the scene, most of the corpses of your clan members who had practiced more than two tails were taken away! Why did your mother want to kill the youngest members of the clan? You know this better than me!"
The current situation was something Ye Liu had never expected. Was his mother's abnormality due to the fact that she had no way to escape at that time?
If... if we were caught up at that time... everyone would...
The price of Nekomata's young children on the underground black market has been rising, but without exception, the children taken away will always be used as breeding and breeding animals to prolong their lives, and will never see the light of day.
The mother killed the children of the clan...it was actually a kind of fulfillment...
"She is your mother, and you are the only one of those children who survived. The body of a young Nekomata is of no value to hunters. Those children avoided the fate of becoming livestock and became your cover!"
Ye Liu's figure was not outstanding. After he fell into a state of suspended animation, those hunters would naturally not harvest the worthless corpse.
But adult cats who escape with their children are no exception!
"What about my mother? Is she still...is she still alive?!"
Nekomata women can continue to give birth to new lives. Even if the elderly cannot survive, the mother will still be in her prime. Maybe... maybe...
The boy ignored the lump on his face and stood up to grab Long Ran's sleeve, as if he was grasping the last glimmer of hope in his life.
"Dead!" Long Ran shook off Ye Liu, "When I arrived, except for you, all the women and elders of the Nekomata clan did not want to become their playthings, so they all committed suicide!"
The boy's eyes turned extremely gray for a moment, and he knelt on the ground with a plop, obviously unable to accept the facts before him.
His mother's words began to linger in his mind again...
He is the only one who has to survive...
But... But everyone is gone, and he is the last cat in the world... What's the point of living?
If you continue to live, it will be nothing more than the fate of being spurned and despised by others, and being exiled and expelled.
Cats have been an ominous demon clan in rumors for many generations, so their ancestors were expelled from various countries and had to move around and settle in the mountains.
In the past, I felt that I could persist because my family members were all together and could support each other.
Now he is the only one left! No one is here except him, Ye Liu!!
The boy knelt on the ground and kept hitting the bluestone floor tiles with his fists. Blood dripped from the corners of his mouth and the back of his hands.
"Ah ah ah ah ah ah ah--!!!!!!!!"
The mournful screams echoed over the temple, startling a crowd of birds. Long Ran still looked at the boy who had nothing left indifferently.
After a while, until Ye Liu was tired of crying, Long Ran lifted the restraint and slowly spoke -
"Do you still want to live?"
Ye Liu's voice was extremely hoarse, and there was even a tinnitus in his ears, but he still vaguely understood the meaning of Long Ran's words.
"What's the reason...?"
There is no need for him to continue living. Maybe he can stop living for himself, but on the other hand, there is no need to live alone until the end...
"Your family is gone, so stay alive," Long Ran was still very decisive. "They entrusted their will and hope to you..."
Before the boy could finish his words, the boy punched him again. Unexpectedly, the two of them were fighting each other.
"What qualifications do you have to say that?! You must still have family anyway, right? I have never had a day when I couldn't even eat enough! I... when my family was still there... do guys like you understand the importance of family?
!”
Ye Liu's movements were frighteningly agile, and perhaps he was furious. The fear of succumbing to the pressure of Long Ran's demonic power also disappeared without a trace. The boy was not alert, and was beaten to the point where he could not get up for a while, and suddenly there were several traces of pain on his face.
Bloodstains.
His tears and the blood on his hands were sprinkled on Long Ran's body. Ye Liu knew that it would be useless to do so now... He clearly knew that fighting an unrelated person would not bring back his dead family members!
But he couldn't stand this man's attitude! He obviously didn't understand anything...it was obvious that he had never experienced anything!
He clearly doesn't know his own pain, yet he puts on such a condescending attitude! What qualifications does he have to criticize?
Has he ever lost something? If he hasn’t lost something, he would just look like that and talk nonsense... Hateful!
As Ye Liu thought about it, he kept swinging his fist at Long Ran's face. Long Ran still took a few punches while dodging.
Finally, after the young man caught up with Ye Liu's movements, he kicked him away with his backhand, got up and pushed Ye Liu to the ground.
"Stop pretending to be pitiful for me! What's the point of crying when everyone is dead?! I won't stop you if you want to die! Go die! Your mother paid for the life of the whole clan to be buried with you, you can waste it if you want.
