Chapter 621 - 616: Redeem Yourself

The first was the wildly excited Nyla Shur. She rushed forward, waiting to receive the message, but they were all curious when they noticed that Tuo Bihan removed a silver box from the bag that was tied to his shoulder. When he brought it out, a soft exclamation resounded from afar, unheard by the five.

Ma Sujiang was astonished. She couldn't sense into that box. It was as if her spiritual sense sank into an endless chasm of nothingness, making her feel lost and uneasy. Ma Ru looked at this prestigious figure of the clan, and also her cousin, and quietly asked: "What's wrong?"

Unlike Ma Sujiang, she wasn't curious about any message or details, so she didn't even bother to try to sense the box.

"...Nothing," Ma Sujiang calmly replied.

Tuo Bihan used the spell he was given, slowly extracting the spatial ring labeled 'Nyla Shur' within. "Give me your hand," he asked. Nyla Shur noticed the ring, and her eyes brightened considerably. It wasn't just her, Xue Yifei's hazel eyes became astonishingly radiant, lit with excitement and expectations. It was a ring just like this that contained her portion of the Valkyrie resources.

Nyla Shur stretched out her hand, and Tuo Bihan performed the same spell as before. The ring emitted a spiritual light that entered Nyla Shur's palm. She then heard the voice that made her heart race.

"My little biter, it's been a while, huh?" Wei Wuyin's voice echoed in her mind, and it caused her to fiercely blush. Especially at that nickname, clearly referring to her constantly biting him at her climax. While she could never even break skin, she couldn't help it.

"I don't know if they explained it to you, but if you're getting this message, then our starfield is destroyed. Don't feel angry at them, these people did something that I couldn't hadn't even thought was necessary, and that was to save all the beasts. So don't cause too much of a ruckus, okay?"Upstodatee from n(0)/ve/lbIn/.(co/m

The concern in Wei Wuyin's voice touched her. She had indeed caused some issues, but they were far too strong to deal with. She got smacked down and taught a lesson about her weakness. While she did hear that their starfield was destroyed, she also learned the others were shifted away so no one was harmed, but she didn't expect that they saved the beasts...

Did that mean they would've been left behind?

She felt a tightness in her chest. The images of her family, her friends, and all those that belonged to her lineage flashed within her mind. They were all at the precipice of death?

"I know. It's a lot to take in. But the good thing is you're all okay, and as for me, I'm perfectly fine. So cultivate, keep the Valkyrie's mission alive. I might need that strength, I might need your strength.

"Within this ring contains resources and materials suitable for your cultivation, as well as the continued development of your Valkyrie Unit. Don't let them slack off."

Nyla Shur felt the warmth that Wei Wuyin's voice radiated. Genuine concern and care was present in every syllable. When she was in the sect, she was a short-tempered type that stood for no bullsh*t. This got her into trouble often, and if it wasn't for her status as a disciple of the Myriad Monarch Sect and her family, she might've been killed off already.

She missed him.

There was abject fear.

To Anu, Zuhei became an apex predator that harnessed utter savagery, murderous intent, and felt like death itself. If it wasn't for the faint traces of dragon bloodline within his body, he would've submitted before Zuhei. He was completely frozen with fear, however.

"Anu?" Tuo Bihan was confused by the dragon's reaction. Was it unable to understand language? He sent a spiritual transmission via a communication spell, the same spell most cultivators use to interact with their beast mounts, but it still provoked no response.

"Anu!" Xue Yifei touched Anu's claw, sending her spiritual sense into his body. Anu's body didn't instinctively reject it, allowing it because it carried his grandmother's aura. She then felt his cold, abyss-like fear. Her heart raced, her mind felt as if she was sent into a world of carnage and death, and that was what Anu felt at this moment.

"ANU!" She screeched through her spiritual sense.

"Huh?" Anu snapped out of his daze, her eyes blinking swiftly. He regained his posture, and looked back towards Zuhei. Zuhei, however, returned to his indifferent expression, those void black flecks in his eyes were even darker, purer.

Tuo Bihan didn't need Anu to hold out his hand, just retrieving the ring that was titled 'Anu'. It did the rest. The spiritual light flowed into his scales and vanished.

Anu heard a voice, very familiar. It belonged to Wei Wuyin! He hadn't expected that the little silver-eyed boy with the courage to bargain for his essence blood was doing so well. The True Dragon Transmutation Method was astonishing, but it was merely a tool to pass down their bloodline in hopes of creating a being to free the dragons trapped in the Auric Sea.

"It's been a while, Anu. Well, I guess there isn't much I need to say except this: I destroyed the World Realm's Core, freeing the imprisoned dragons. If you didn't know before, now you do. I don't know if that was your intention when you gave me the True Dragon Transmutation Method, but if it was, well played.

"I couldn't allow the dragons to suffer in good conscience, and that would've been true even if you never gave me the method. Even if it meant taking an absolutely devastating risk, I would've freed them no matter what. That being said, thank you. Without the method, I wouldn't be able to accomplish the task so perfectly, and I wouldn't have such an amazing existence by my side.

"This ring contains resources and materials for the dragons. I don't know how long it'll take for this to reach you, but I'm sure the dragon lineage are still far from their former glory. Use it well."

The message ended there.

Anu stared at the spatial ring that floated to his eye-level. He was silent for a moment, realizing what had happened. It seemed his grandmother's plan had worked. He looked towards Xue Yifei.

Was this fate?

The same one who devised the plan to use humans to keep the dragon lineage alive and a possible chance of freedom also became a part of this woman, who, from her own words, was their savior's concubine. Was this her reward for his success?

Anu was lost for a moment in his thoughts, but he didn't reject the ring in the end. He slightly breathed in and sucked the spatial ring into his Internal World.

Tuo Bihan knew the last person was also the most important, "Xue Yifei."
