The Yuan Yu Formation was pulled out from the bottom of the sea and smashed into pieces under the watchful eyes of everyone. The soul of the resurrected cocoon rat was forced to leave without the support of Yuan Yu, and disappeared in the air. Only the cocoon rat was left to sacrifice because of
Due to some special reasons, the soul has not yet left the body. He was mixed among the cocoon beastmen and was recognized by Yun Wuzhen and brought back together.
In Yunlan City, it was already late at night, and Yun Wulan was still waiting anxiously in his room. Half a day ago, the cocoon rat sacrifice passed through the teleportation point and went to the stronghold under the Nightless Island, but it has not returned. He felt worse in his heart.
Feeling uneasy.
"Where's Shu Ran? Let him come to see me." Yun Wulan ordered his confidant. As soon as his confidant walked out of the study, he bumped into someone who came to report the news.
"Your Highness, it's not good!" The face of the messenger was full of panic: "The cocoon orcs in the palace suddenly lost control, and the resurrected cocoon rats also fell into a coma. Some cocoon orcs even started fighting with the unresurrected cocoon rats.
It’s a mess, it’s a mess!”
"What!" Yun Wulan lost his usual calmness and fell down on the soft chair, his eyes a little straight: "It's the Yuan Yu Formation! It's the Yuan Yu Formation that was destroyed! How is this possible..."
He suddenly remembered something and sat up from the soft chair: "Where is Shu Ran? Isn't he still in the palace? Let him come to see me!"
Before the confidant could walk out of the room, Yun Wuzhen stopped him again: "No, I'll go find him."
Yun Wulan quickly walked out of the study and walked near his own study. It was quite quiet. When he got close to Shuran's residence, he saw a completely different scene. A group of cocoon orcs sat blankly against the wall, and another group of beasts
Normally, they would rush around and pounce on anyone they saw. The cocoon orcs who were still conscious gathered together and shouted and argued non-stop. They wanted Shuran and cocoon to be sacrificed and give them an explanation.
Yun Wulan and his confidants bypassed these people and entered Shuran's residence. They found Shuran alone near the dog hole in the backyard. At that time, he was lying on the ground with a cloth bag on his back, preparing to leave the palace through the dog hole.
Yun Wulan grabbed Shuran's neck, pulled him up from the ground, and pressed him against the wall. His red eyes were full of unwillingness to fail: "You want to escape? Where do you want to escape to? You didn't mean the bottom of the sea.
Is the Yuan Yu Formation infallible and absolutely impossible to destroy? What is the situation now! How come these cocoon orcs are out of control! Huh?"
Shu Ran squeezed Yun Wulan's hand hard, trying to get some air from the gap: "How do I know? It's not your good brother's fault. If it weren't for him, if it weren't for saving him, the formation on the bottom of the sea would not be exposed.
!”
After he finished speaking, he softened his tone, trying to appease the furious Yun Wulan and save his life: "I'm not running away, but in this situation, I must live. It doesn't matter even if both the Cocoon Rat and the Cocoon Orc are dead.
As long as I live, we will definitely be able to make a comeback. I can take you to find new Yuan Jade mines, make new formations, and new cocoon orcs. Ahem, just relax, we haven't lost, there is still a chance..."
Before he could finish speaking, a long arrow shot from a distance and pierced Shuran's eyebrows, killing his last "chance". The arrow almost flew past Yun Wulan's face.
He was shocked and angry, turned around and shouted: "Who!"
"Your Highness the Fox King, it's me." The archer responded unhurriedly. Although he called His Highness the Fox King, his tone was not respectful at all. He was none other than Hu Yi, Yun Wuzhen's personal guard.
Behind him, there were not only Yun Wuzhen's imprisoned confidants Hu Er, Hu San, and Hu Si, but also the high priest, many senior officials of the Yunhu Clan, and the Yunhu Clan's guards.
"What do you mean, you want to rebel?" Yun Wulan asked.
"I'm sorry, Your Highness, we can't watch you make another mistake again and again." High Priest Yunhu stepped forward and said.
"Trespassing into the palace, High Priest, is this your rule?" Yun Wulan let go of the body in his hand, straightened his messy clothes, and pretended to be calm.
"It is indeed my problem to break into the palace without permission. However, the matter is urgent and I ask His Highness the Fox King to forgive me." The high priest took out a parchment from the space with the signatures of several respected elders in the Cloud Fox and showed it to him.
Yun Wulan: "This is an accusation against you. It accuses you of colluding with the Cocoon Rats to hijack the clan since you came to the throne, acting arbitrarily, regardless of the safety of the whole clan, killing many clan members, and betraying the Alliance of Seven Royal Clans. Your Highness the Fox King,
You have committed several unforgivable crimes. With the unanimous consent of the elders of the clan, you will be deposed from the throne until the new Fox King takes office."
"You want to depose me?" Yun Wulan stared in disbelief: "Everything I have done is for the prosperity of the Yunhu Clan. Why do you want to depose me? I am not worthy of being the Fox King? Then who is?
"
Yunhu Priest: "Young Prince Yun Wuzhen is worthy of this task. Thanks to his cooperation with the Frostwolf clan, we managed to destroy the Yuanyu Formation and return Dongye to peace. Calculating the time, he should be on his way back now."
On the way."
Only then did Yun Wulan understand that they had already known about Yun Wuzhen being sent to the mermaid tribe: "It was you who told the news about Yun Wuzhen being sent to the mermaid tribe! It was you who sent their people to the north.
Led to the Nightless Island! Isn’t that right?”
Yun Huji lowered his head: "The news is the result of the efforts of many parties. The person who sent the news was the shopkeeper of Yuntian Pavilion. I dare not take credit."
"..." Yun Wulan felt that he had been completely fooled.
After a few seconds, he laughed miserably: "You know there will be chaos in the palace, right? You have known it for a long time, so you gathered people in advance, waiting to see my joke."
Priest Yunhu said: "His Royal Highness the Wolf King sent us the news before going to sea, asking us to pay more attention to the movements in the palace in the past few days. If we find chaos in the palace, it means that their operation has been successful. On our side
, you can also keep up.”
"Okay. You, the subjects of the Yunhu Clan, would rather listen to the words of a wolf king than I, the Yunhu King." Yun Wulan closed his eyes as if resigned to his fate: "Oh, I still lost to him after all."
He still remembers the first time he saw Ao Wu. At that time, he had just taken over as the Fox King. Yun Wulan took his younger brother to the Northern Palace to visit the old Wolf King, and Ao Wu was just a young disciple of the old Wolf King who had little to rely on.
.
Yun Wulan just glanced at him casually. Unexpectedly, when they looked at each other, he was startled by Ao Wu's cold and sharp eyes, and he couldn't help but look away. On the contrary, it was his silly brother Yun Wuzhen who was talking to Ao Wu.
Wu was similar in age, and regardless of the other person's cold face, he stepped forward and pulled Ao Wu to ask questions.
Yun Wulan knew that his younger brother was a beauty-controller. Whether he was making friends as a child or looking for a partner when he grew up, he always liked to choose good-looking ones. And Ao Wu was indeed the most handsome among the frost wolves.
At that time, Yun Wulan didn't take Ao Wu seriously, who was still a child at that time. The imaginary enemy in his heart was the old wolf king. The reason was that he was unwilling to let others talk about the Yunhu clan and always describe them as beautiful and rich. As for their strength,
It's not worth mentioning at all. But if you are close to the North, you should not mess with it at will. The tone is as if the Cloud Fox Clan is a precious vase protected by the Frost Wolf Clan. Without the protection of the Frost Wolf Clan, anyone can do it.
Step on it.
Yun Wulan was not convinced. The Yunhu clan itself was obviously very powerful. They had many powerful sacrificial abilities. Those ancient forbidden arts sealed in the book pavilion, if taken out casually, had unimaginable power, including
The power of space unique to Yunhu. And what is there in the north? They are just a group of rough barbarians who drink blood.
After the meeting of the seven royal clans, the old wolf king used force to teach the ligers and tigers how to behave, beating them until they dared not say a word. Yun Wulan's unwillingness became even stronger. He also wanted to have such awe from others. Let them have absolute authority in the Yunhu clan.
Bow before strength.
After finding the Cocoon Rat Clan, Yun Wulan thought he had finally found the way to become powerful for the Yunhu Clan. Under the bewitchment of the Cocoon Rat Sacrifice, his passion expanded day by day, and his goal was to make the Yunhu Clan a powerful one in the eyes of others.
Or, the Yunhu tribe will become the real masters of the mainland.
The first stepping stone for him to dominate is naturally the Frostwolf clan, which is known as the "strongest" among the seven royal clans. He wants to defeat the Frostwolves with his own hands and use the Frostwolf clan's defeat to prove his own strength.
He planned the premature death of the old Wolf King, and planned the Fire Feather Clan's attack on the Western Front three years ago. He thought that everything was infallible, thinking that the Frost Wolf Clan would inevitably become a mess in this war, and he would be able to throw all kinds of threats at them when the time came.
An olive branch, showing other tribes how powerful Dongye is.
But Ao Wu happened to appear. The child with terrifying eyes had grown into a decisive new wolf king. He defeated the old wolf king, secured his position as wolf king, and defeated the Fire Feather tribe in a very short time.
The attack once again made the world feel the power of the Frostwolf.
Everyone was praising him. Even his younger brother, who used to admire and respect him the most, began to talk about Ao Wu and Ao Wu non-stop every day. Those words of praise sounded like ridicule and sarcasm to Yun Wulan.
, laughing at him for being incompetent and weak. He had been planning and planning for many years, but he failed completely in front of a young man ten years younger than himself. Just like when he was frightened by the eyes of Ao Wu when he was a child, it was ridiculous and pitiful.
Whenever he faced Ao Wu from then on, he always failed. The assassination attempt in the Northern Territory failed; the assassination attempt in Yuehua City failed; the instigation from Wanze City almost succeeded, but he still failed. Instead, the other party discovered that Cocoon Rat was there.
The stronghold of Nanxia. Then the attack on Huiyue City on the western front failed, and the opponent seized the Yunhu clan's hand. Finally, they were completely defeated on the Evernight Island.
The high priest looked at the young people he had worked with and couldn't help but sigh: "You didn't lose to His Highness the Wolf King, you lost to your own brother. His Highness the Wolf King has never been an enemy of the Yunhu Clan, and he shouldn't be you either.
The enemy. From the moment you choose to betray your allies, betray your oath, and do whatever it takes for your own ambition and greed, you have already lost."
Yun Wulan opened his eyes, but the light in his eyes dimmed: "Am I wrong? Why did I obviously try my best to make Yunhu strong, but in the end I ended up betraying everyone?"
"You are wrong. You were originally a wise and wise king. You could make your subjects live a good life, but look, what did you bring to them? What did you bring to this continent? Assassination,
Chaos, war. Do you really love them? Have you really considered it from their perspective? What they want is to be the strongest on this continent, or to live a stable and prosperous life." The high priest sighed and said:
"You were wrong from the beginning."
Early the next morning, An Qing woke up in Linqiu City and found that the feeling of being under surveillance and control had disappeared. He got up excitedly, ordered people to open the gate of Linqiu City, and surrendered to the north.
Colleagues who were also second-generation Cocoon Orcs responded positively, but the Cocoon Rats in the city were shocked. The leader of the Cocoon Rats shouted: "What are you doing! Stop! I order you to stop."
"Order? You don't seem to have figured out who has the final say in this place now." An Qing ordered to the cocoon indifferently: "Tie them all up for me. As a gift for our surrender, I have already agreed with the Northern Territory
The rulers of the country have made an agreement. As long as you follow me, all the things committed in the previous war can be forgotten. When the war is over, we can all regain our freedom."
Freedom, this word was too tempting to the Cocoon Orcs. They almost cheered and captured all the Cocoon Orcs in the city and tied them up.
The gate of Linqiu City opened. Shuang Yu, Ao Jing, and the members of the hunting team accepted An Qing's surrender conditions on behalf of the Northern Territory.
After counting the cocoon rats that had been tied into rice dumplings, Shuangyu ordered the people to make way for them, bowed to An Qing and the cocoon orcs behind him, and said, "You are free, congratulations. In the future, you will return to the tribe or go to other places."
You can go wherever you like."
Ao Jing ordered someone to bring a large box of bone coins: "This is a small tribute from the Frostwolf Clan. It's not much. One hundred bone coins per person, as a way to help you along the way. I hope you can have a new life."
The cocoon beasts thanked her happily and lined up to receive the bone coins. Shuang Yu's eyes were always glued to An Qing.
An Qing, however, didn't show any nostalgia at all. She received her share of travel expenses, packed up her luggage and planned to hit the road.
Shuang Yu hesitated for a long time, but couldn't help but said, "Brother... An Qing."
An Qing stopped, tilted her head and turned around and asked, "Is something wrong?"
"What are your plans for the future?" Shuang Yu asked.
"I haven't thought about it yet. Let's look around. Anyway, I won't starve to death wherever I go." An Qing said in a relaxed tone.
Shuangyu: "Then will you come back to the north?"
An Qing: "Maybe. When I get tired of playing and want to find a place to stop, I should consider this place. After all, the climate in the north is quite suitable for me."
Shuang Yu breathed a sigh of relief, as long as there is still hope: "Yeah."
An Qing suddenly turned around, approached Shuang Yu, and asked in a somewhat nasty tone: "You can't bear to leave me. Don't you still think of me as your brother?"
"No..." Shuang Yu quickly denied it. After finishing the denial, she felt guilty when facing An Qing's sharp eyes and apologized honestly: "I'm sorry."
"Ha." An Qing chuckled: "It doesn't matter, it's better to have a cheap brother than to be alone, and I found that you are not a bad person. Then brother, your brother is going to travel far away, don't you want to express it?"
Shuang Yu's eyes widened in surprise. Was An Qing asking him for money?
Shuang Yu hurriedly took out all his belongings, bone coins, purple bone coins, and even some weapons and medicines that the teacher gave him for self-defense, and stuffed them all into An Qing's hands: "I'll give them all to you."
"Okay." An Qing swept the bits and pieces in Shuangyu's hand and stuffed them into her own space: "Where do you live?"
"Ah?" Shuang Yu felt that her thoughts could no longer keep up with An Qing's: "Hey, White Tower, what's wrong?"
An Qing flicked his forehead and said with a grin: "I'm not a robber. I can't take your money for nothing. When my brother gets rich, I'll pay you back when he comes back."
Looking at An Qing's back leaving in a carefree manner, Shuang Yu covered her head and giggled.
Ao Jing called him several times but got no response. He stretched out his hand and waved it in front of Shuang Yu's eyes: "Hey, what are you doing? Are you knocked stupid by your brother?"
Shuang Yu came back to her senses, but the silly smile on her lips still disappeared: "I'm just happy. I think what I am now is what my brother is like. Ao Jing, my brother is back."
Half a month later, Yun Wuzhen succeeded to the throne of King Yunhu, and the succession ceremony was simple.
As for Yun Wulan, Yun Wuzhen knew that he was guilty of serious crimes and even sold himself to people like Yu Fangqing in exchange for profits. But he also remembered that Yun Wulan had always protected him since he was a child. Every time he got into trouble, he was the one who would wipe him out.
butt.
After all, he was reluctant to kill him, and finally ordered Yun Wulan to be imprisoned in the Yunhu Clan's forbidden area until he died.
The orcs whose bodies were originally possessed by cocoon rats were gathered together and handed over to the Crane Clan. After the Crane Clan looked at them, they determined that their original souls were still alive, but were damaged because they were made into soul shadows.
As for why a few cocoon rats, such as Shu Ran and the cocoon rat priest, were not unconscious, it was because they killed the host in the original body at the beginning. The disadvantage of this is that there is no disguise of the soul shadow, so they can be recognized at a glance.
The advantage is that the soul will gradually merge with the current body, and it can continue to survive even without the support of the Yuan Yu Formation.
However, these living cocoon rats, including the cocoon rat sacrifices, will face the judgment of the seven royal families. What awaits them will be a punishment more severe than death.
As for the remaining orcs whose bodies have been occupied by cocoon rats, Hexian said that they are recovering their souls bit by bit while sleeping, and maybe they will wake up in a few days, months, or a few years of living.
Such an uncertain time is undoubtedly disappointing, but compared to the news of death, there are still many orcs who are willing to guard the bodies of their loved ones and wait for a miracle to happen.
A few days later, the first orc whose body was taken over by a cocoon rat woke up, which undoubtedly rekindled the hope of the relatives of the other sleeping orcs. This orc had some connections with Hang Shiqi, and it was at that time that his body was snatched away by Shu Nian.
Bao Chen, the son of the lord of Lieyang City. After three years of searching for the lord of Lieyang City, he finally found his son on this day.
After the treatment of other comatose orcs, their bodies were claimed one by one by their relatives, taken home and cared for carefully.
As for the cocoon orcs, those like An Qing are easier to deal with. Although they have no memory, they have complete consciousness. After they were freed, some of these people returned to their original ethnic groups, and some could not accept their identities, so they started
Wandering life.
As for the first-generation cocoon orcs in the seventeenth batch in Hangzhou, most of them had no thoughts of their own. After losing control, they became stupid and knew nothing except eating and sleeping. These cocoon orcs were eventually sent to Kunshan,
Waiting for the Crane Clan to help them gradually repair their souls.
The Crane Clan does not reject the arrival of the Cocoon Orcs. After all, the souls of the Cocoon Orcs are a new research direction for them, and repairing such a broken soul is also a very interesting challenge for them.
When Hang Shiqi and Ao Wu visited Kunshan, Kunshan, which had always been deserted, became very lively because it had taken in a large number of first-generation cocoon orcs. There were cocoon orcs of unknown race everywhere, running around like small animals, chasing after them.
The Crane Clan is responsible for guarding them.
"Hang Shiqi." After careful inspection, Hexian said: "I understand your situation. I can indeed repair the long-lived soul, but he needs an independent body as the container of the soul. The most suitable choice
It's your beast form, because it originally belonged to him."
"Yeah, yeah." Hang Shiqi didn't understand very well, but nodded obediently.
Ao Wu next to him quickly understood what He Xian meant: "Are you asking Hang Shiqi to separate the animal form from the human form, and give the animal form to Changsheng as his body?"
Hexian: "That's right. In this way, the body and soul will not conflict, and the body is the most conducive to the cultivation of the soul."
"Ah, separation? Can this still be separated?" Hang Shiqi blinked blankly: "It means that from now on I will no longer be an orc. I will live as an animal and I will be a human. Then will I have no ears and tail?"
.”
"That's not true." He Xian said: "The animal form and the human form of the orc are actually two separate entities. The ears and tail of the human form do not conflict with the animal form. The animal form is like a spare soul container.
, it is usually installed in the space, summoned when needed, and then replaced with a human form."
"It's the space where we usually put things? Then why can't I take it out of the space?" Hang Shiqi asked curiously.
He Xian: "Because a soul cannot have two bodies at the same time. This is the rule of the world. If you want to take out your animal form when you have a human form, this itself is against the rules."
"So Changsheng and I are two different souls, and they are my beast-shaped body, so if I give him the beast-shaped body, it won't violate the rules?" Hang Shiqi said by analogy.
Hexian nodded with satisfaction: "You can teach me."
Ao Wu had never heard of this method of separating the animal form. He asked with some worry: "Will it do any harm to his body?"
He Xian: "After losing the beast form, the portable space cannot be opened, but there is no other hindrance."
"Come on then." Hang Shiqi didn't hesitate for a second. He opened his hands and closed his eyes, waiting for He Xian to take action.
This surprised Hexian. After all, for orcs, the animal form is still very important. Losing the animal form means losing the general ability to survive. It is a disability as serious as losing both hands and legs.
"You really thought about it." He Xian confirmed again.
"Well, this was originally a long-lived body. I just returned it to its original owner. Besides, he also prevented a disaster. Without it to protect me, I wouldn't know Ao Wu and I wouldn't be living the life I have now.
Maybe he was killed by the cocoon rat in that corner, so I can’t repay kindness with vengeance, right?”
Hexian touched his beard: "Okay. I will try to use the longevity soul fragment to bring out your beast form. After that, the longevity soul will stay with me to nurture. When it is fully recovered, I will know how to do it."
Let me tell you. Come and take him back again."
"good."
One day later, Hang Shiqi and Ao Wu, who had lost their animal forms, returned from Kunshan.
On the carriage, Hang Shiqi shook his furry little ears: "I thought I had completely returned to human form? I didn't expect that the ears and tail had not changed back."
"What are you going to change back to?" Ao Wu stretched out his hand and pinched Hang Shiqi's ears and took him into his arms.
"Change back to human ears. Oh, you haven't seen it before. People in our world don't have tails, and their ears don't stick out on the top of their heads, but grow on both sides, one on each side, small round ears.
, it’s not covered with so much hair, and it’s the same color as the skin.” Hang Shiqi said while gesturing.
"What about the tail?" Ao Wu asked.
"No tail."
Ao Wu fell silent, seemed to think seriously for a while and said: "This is good now."
"Don't you like my human appearance?" Hang Shiqi suddenly felt a little sour and started to feel jealous of himself without logic.
Ao Wu had no choice but to explain: "The ears and tail now allow me to better sense your mood, whether you are happy or unhappy, curious or scared. I am too good at sensing other people's emotions. If I can't accurately know your happiness and anger,
, I would also feel uneasy.”
Is Ao Wu because he is uneasy? This is something Hang Shiqi has never thought about. After all, Ao Wu looks like a cold-blooded cool guy, and he is also a cool guy when getting along. A cool guy should not fall in love with anyone when he wears sunglasses. Ao Wu
Wu actually fears that she will be unhappy, which is not cool at all.
But it's a bit cute. It makes me want to take a bite.
Anyway, the relationship has been established, there is nothing to argue about. Hang Shiqi rushed directly to Ao Wu, with one hand on the shoulder and the other on the waist, nibbling at the corner of the other person's mouth like a puppy: "Okay. I agree with you.
I like the way I look better now.”
Ao Wu was pressed against Hang Shiqi, kissed and rubbed, and his body reacted almost immediately. His breathing suddenly became chaotic. The hand pressing on Hang Shiqi's back involuntarily increased its strength, and he touched the plush skin.
I couldn't help but grab a handful of the tail.
"Woo--" Hang Shiqi shook his body reflexively, whimpered, and moved the hand pressing Ao Wu's shoulder to the collar to pull on the other person's collar.
Ao Wu changed from passive to active, suppressing the person and deepening the kiss.
Ao Wu kissed very hard, his dark eyes locked on Hang Qiqi's face, the ends of his eyes were red, and his eyes were full of tumbling desire. He was like a hungry wolf, holding onto its prey.
He held her tightly in his arms and tasted it over and over again until he bit his soft mouth and lips until they were a little red. He half-opened his mouth and couldn't say any unnecessary words. He could only breathe quickly in small mouths, and then again and again.
Turning around and looking down.
Hang Shiqi was turned around by him and leaned against him. After a while, a white light flashed in front of his eyes. He was also grabbed by the other party's hand and touched it.
Hang Shiqi's clothes were all wrinkled by him, and he was tightly trapped in his arms. His legs were so weak that he couldn't breathe smoothly.
"Wait, wait a minute, don't be here." Hang Shiqi struggled in a hoarse voice, with a little nasal voice and a squeamish voice. The main reason is that Ao Wu is so fierce today, as if he has not eaten meat.
...Well, in a sense, he really hasn't eaten it. After all, the Orc Continent is under the jurisdiction of Lujiang, so you can eat whatever you want, but not meat.
Ao Wu lowered the tip of his nose to Hang Qi's neck. It took him a while to calm down his breathing. Then he looked up at Hang Qi and said, "Let's get married when we return to the north, okay?"
"Do I need a wedding to get married?" Hang Shiqi asked.
Ao Wu didn't know what a wedding was, so he thought for a moment and said, "When the Wolf King gets married, there will be a celebration in the city."
When Hang Shiqi heard about the celebration, he opened his mouth and asked: "How delicious is the food at the celebration?"
Ao Wu laughed: "When did I miss you to eat? What do you want to eat? You don't have to wait for the celebration."
"That's okay." Hang Shiqi liked this.
Ao Wu held Hang Shiqi's hand tightly: "I'll just take it as your promise, huh?"
Hang Shiqi was a little embarrassed and started to ramble: "Then will you always be so good to me?"
"Will do."
"Then, I want to eat a lot of delicious food."
"good."
"There will be lots and lots of fun."
"good."
"You are not allowed to hurt me if I get into trouble."
"good."
"You must always like me."
"good."
Hang Shiqi finally added fiercely: "If you don't like me anymore, I will demolish your palace and run away so that you will never find it."
Ao Wu kissed him on the forehead and said seriously: "That day will never happen, forever."
