Chapter 85: Chapter 85 I Want… To Devour It

The three-tailed hellbeast let out an ear-splitting howl, and at the same time, its Divine Consciousness was also screaming. Yun Xia, enduring the double impact, was already reaching his limit. It wasn’t hard to imagine what Mo Jun Zhou was facing.

He immediately covered his ears with Demonic Energy, which at least blocked some of the noise.

The hellbeast’s Divine Consciousness was being twisted and torn in the black flames, struggling madly.

Yun Xia regained his strength, climbed to his feet, and went around to the back of the hellbeast, where he saw Mo Jun Zhou standing.

Mo Jun Zhou didn’t look too good either. His forehead was covered in cold sweat, one hand was extended forward in a half-fist, and his eyes faintly flashed red, clearly engaged in a tug-of-war with the hellbeast’s Divine Consciousness.

Yun Xia could see that although the hellbeast couldn’t break free for the moment, it was constantly trying to resist, leaving Mo Jun Zhou unable to relax for a moment.

“Hang in there!” Yun Xia didn’t waste any words and immediately condensed a small point of light, about to send a message, when he heard Mo Jun Zhou’s voice.

“Don’t call them here.”

Yun Xia immediately turned his head: “Why? You…”

He looked at the hellbeast, very anxious. If Mo Jun Zhou was counter-killed, it wouldn’t be a joke!

“I want… to devour it.” Mo Jun Zhou said, one word at a time.

Yun Xia was shocked. Devour it?

Did he want to devour the hellbeast’s Divine Consciousness to replenish his strength?

That was too dangerous!

Yun Xia bit his lip and finally scattered the point of light. He said in a deep voice: “Don’t worry, I’ll protect you. I definitely won’t let anything interfere with you.”

Yun Xia immediately stood beside him, because he heard beast roars coming from the distance. He needed to be ready to fight at any moment.

Mo Jun Zhou glanced at him without saying anything.

This hellbeast was probably not far from cultivating into human form, and its strength was even greater than Yun Xia had previously thought.

Mo Jun Zhou had most likely sought it out deliberately, precisely because he had his eye on its Divine Consciousness.

They were about to leave soon, and Mo Jun Zhou probably wanted to increase his own strength.

Next was waiting. Yun Xia held the Phoenix Rainbow Immortal Sword, scanning the surroundings warily.

But to his surprise, the distant sounds gradually disappeared after a while, and no hellbeasts approached to attack them.

Yun Xia guessed that it was because no one dared to provoke these two at this time. After all, when big figures fought, little figures should stay far away to avoid being caught in the crossfire.

Seeing that there were no hellbeasts approaching for the moment, he felt a little more relieved.

He also had time to observe what was in front of him.

He remembered that Mo Jun Zhou couldn’t use the Black Lotus anymore after losing his memory. However, what was in front of him wasn’t actually the Black Lotus. That lotus flower was actually dark red, not the Black Lotus’s true form. It should be something Mo Jun Zhou had created using the power of his Divine Consciousness.

After all, he was the Demon Lord himself and cultivated in this path. Using enough condensed power to outline it could still restore some of his power.

After that, fortunately, there were no mishaps. Although the color of the lotus flower became more and more transparent, indicating that Mo Jun Zhou’s power was being depleted a lot, the result was that the hellbeast’s Divine Consciousness also became weaker and weaker.

Mo Jun Zhou closed his eyes and concentrated on devouring. The hellbeast’s Divine Consciousness exuded an aura of despair, but the invisible restraint left it with nowhere to escape.

Yun Xia stared fixedly at Mo Jun Zhou, because Mo Jun Zhou didn’t look too good either, and he had to be ready at any moment.

Suddenly, Mo Jun Zhou’s whole body tensed up, and at the same time, he opened his eyes, his expression solemn.

Yun Xia’s spirit perked up.

The hellbeast’s consciousness launched a final counterattack, erupting with a strong force, slamming hard.

Mo Jun Zhou’s face turned pale, his body staggered, and he let out a muffled groan.

“Mo Jun Zhou!”

The hellbeast knew that Mo Jun Zhou was also at his limit and launched a desperate counterattack. The sound from the Divine Consciousness crashed into Yun Xia’s head, making it buzz.

How could it still have such power! No, he had to find a way to help.

Yun Xia anxiously asked Mo Jun Zhou: “Is there anything I can do to help you?”

Mo Jun Zhou didn’t answer, and his body swayed again.

Yun Xia was both anxious and angry. Suddenly, he saw the sword in his hand.

Ordinary swords were useless. The hellbeast’s skin was too thick to pierce.

That’s right, his Phoenix Rainbow Immortal Sword was given to him by Your Esteemed Lord. Would Your Esteemed Lord’s things cause damage to the Divine Consciousness?

Without another word, Yun Xia raised his sword and stabbed it hard.

Other than Yun Xia being knocked back a few steps by the recoil, there was no reaction.

Was he overthinking it? After all, Your Esteemed Lord hadn’t specifically said that this sword could have additional effects on the Divine Consciousness.

“Roar—!”

Suddenly, the hellbeast shouted, and then its pupils gradually dimmed. Its Divine Consciousness no longer struggled and gradually disappeared into the nearly transparent lotus flower.

Yun Xia was overjoyed: “It’s a success!”

“Thud.”

Mo Jun Zhou sat down on the ground, panting with his head lowered.

Yun Xia immediately went over.

“How do you feel?”

Mo Jun Zhou shook his head.

“You can’t even speak. That was too thrilling! Don’t tell me you went looking for this hellbeast yourself? You’re really bold. It’s almost cultivated into human form. Which hellbeast like that doesn’t have some strength? It’s probably a spiritual cultivator, otherwise its Divine Consciousness wouldn’t be so powerful. If it had a few more tricks up its sleeve…”

Mo Jun Zhou’s head hurt from his chatter, and he frowned and covered his mouth.

“Shut up.”

After saying that, he closed his eyes tiredly, thinking about leaning on Yun Xia to rest for a while. As a result, Yun Xia misunderstood, thinking that he had fainted, and immediately hugged him.

“Hey! Mo Jun Zhou! Wake up, don’t go back to sleep! Are you okay!”

Yun Xia’s body was soft, and his arms were warm. Mo Jun Zhou was too lazy to speak and didn’t want to think too much, so he just leaned on him and rested.

Yun Xia didn’t call him anymore after a few unanswered calls. He hugged Mo Jun Zhou and made him lean more comfortably, placing his other hand on Mo Jun Zhou’s forehead to massage his temples.

Mo Jun Zhou’s eyelashes fluttered, but he didn’t open his eyes after all.

He heard Yun Xia mutter in a low voice: “Massaging his temples should help a little, right? Why is he still frowning? Is he still very uncomfortable?”

The next moment, he pressed his fingers on Mo Jun Zhou’s brow and gently circled, smoothing out his frown.

“Sigh, if I had brought my storage bag, wouldn’t I be able to help you? You wouldn’t have to get hurt. Seriously, how could this kind of trashy, dog-blood plot happen to me? I used to hate characters who dropped the ball at critical moments the most!”

“Now I have to say that line, I’m really useless. Whatever, people should be brave enough to admit their uselessness.”

“You’re too stubborn. Actually, you could have told me. That way, I wouldn’t have forgotten to bring things, and I would have been able to help you.”

Yun Xia poked Mo Jun Zhou’s cheek: “Idiot.”

Mo Jun Zhou slowly opened his eyes, meeting Yun Xia’s astonished gaze.

“If you were useless, you wouldn’t have been able to help me at the end.”

Yun Xia: “Are you awake, or were you not unconscious at all?”

Mo Jun Zhou paused: “Not unconscious. I didn’t say I was unconscious, did I?”

Yun Xia was speechless: “You wouldn’t be able to talk if you were unconscious, right?”

But then he smiled again: “That’s great. Do you still want me to massage you? Was my massage just now helpful?”

Mo Jun Zhou’s eyes flickered, and he closed them again: “No need.”

“You need it, right? You didn’t say anything just now, which means you’re not uncomfortable. Let me massage you again. Speak up. If you don’t speak, I’ll take it as you agreeing.”

Yun Xia massaged his temples again.

He stopped only when his hand was a little sore.

And Mo Jun Zhou seemed to have fallen asleep.

That’s right, this person probably didn’t sleep all night last night, and he went to provoke that hellbeast before dawn. The two sides had a tug-of-war for almost an hour, and his Divine Consciousness power was mostly exhausted. He must be exhausted.

Although this place wasn’t as comfortable as sleeping in a bed, Yun Xia didn’t wake him up.

Time passed bit by bit, and it was already two hours later when Mo Jun Zhou woke up.

As soon as he opened his eyes, he saw Yun Xia’s chin.

That’s right, he…

Mo Jun Zhou immediately sat up.

Yun Xia looked at him and smiled: “You’re awake. How was your sleep? Is the Yun Xia brand small bed comfortable?”

“Uh, thank you.”

It was okay when he was sleeping just now, but now that he was awake, he felt embarrassed. Mo Jun Zhou had never been in someone else’s arms, or even slept with someone before.

“You’re welcome. In that case, can I ask you for a favor?”

Yun Xia was still sitting on the ground, looking at him with a bright smile.

Mo Jun Zhou was wary: “What?”

“Carry me back.” Yun Xia opened his arms to him.

Mo Jun Zhou’s first reaction was to refuse.

But the next thought was… Mo Jun Zhou scanned Yun Xia’s whole body.

“Did I make you numb?”

Yun Xia said righteously: “It’s not that you made me numb. I made myself numb.”

Mo Jun Zhou sighed, walked forward, turned his back to him, and squatted down: “Can you speak properly?”

Yun Xia happily climbed onto his back: “I can. We’ve been through life and death together, right? We have revolutionary friendship. So I promise you, I won’t make you angry on the way back.”

Mo Jun Zhou glanced at him sideways: “You also know that you were making me angry before?”

Yun Xia: “That’s because you’re too petty. Your Esteemed Lord… the grown-up you isn’t like this.”

Mo Jun Zhou snorted: “Then you can wait for him.”

“Hey, hey, I just finished saying that, and you’re angry again? Are you angry or jealous?”

“Neither.”

“Oh…”

Mo Jun Zhou carried him step by step, not flying back.

Yun Xia didn’t urge him either, lying on his back peacefully. The two of them were talking in a fairly harmonious manner.

At this time, it was already broad daylight. Counting the time, it was already afternoon. The light passed through the trees and fell on them, neither warm nor cold.

“By the way, why didn’t you come back last night? I waited for you all night.”

Speaking of this, Mo Jun Zhou’s body stiffened, and he inevitably thought of certain things.

“Huh? Mo Jun Zhou, why aren’t you talking?”

“Nothing. I was looking for that hellbeast.”

Yun Xia was immediately distracted and asked him about the hellbeast fight.

Mo Jun Zhou slowly told him.

He didn’t talk much, usually Yun Xia asked and he answered.

In this way, they walked for about half an hour before Yun Xia asked him to go back faster. Only then did he speed up and return to the small courtyard.

When they were almost there, Mo Jun Zhou wanted to put Yun Xia down, but Yun Xia clamped his waist and refused to come down.

“Carry me back. I’ve been sleeping outside since last night. When I woke up in the morning, my body was stiff. Then I was pressed by you to sleep, and I was stiff for a few more hours. I…”

“Alright, I got it. I’ll carry you back, alright?” Mo Jun Zhou compromised.

Yun Xia chuckled secretly.

In the small courtyard, An He and the others had already gotten up and packed up everything. They were all surprised to see Yun Xia and Mo Jun Zhou come in.

“Did you guys make up?”

Only then did Yun Xia jump down from Mo Jun Zhou’s back: “What are you talking about? We didn’t have any conflicts.”

“…Whatever you say is what you say.”

In the following time, they mostly entered a state of cultivation to adjust themselves. In this way, it continued until the next day, when Wei Ying put away the spatial artifact and left the forest to go to the border city.

Before leaving, they did a simple disguise. An He and the others were fine, but some people still recognized Yun Xia.

Not to mention Mo Jun Zhou, he came with his own “mask”, and no one could see his true appearance except for Yun Xia.
