Chapter 491: Chapter 492: Old Affairs 29
"No——Aqi!!"
Suddenly a blue vortex appeared in front of him, and Kasuo jumped out of the vortex, catching Aqi as she fell.
Hai Qin barely lifted his gaze, only to see a stone spear lodged in Aqi’s chest, blood instantly soaked her beast skin outfit, gushing out continuously.
He opened his mouth, but it was as if something was lodged in his throat. He couldn’t utter a single sound.
Kasuo was weeping inaudibly, his trembling hand trying to stem the wound. "Aqi, Aqi, don’t leave me..."
Aqi’s eyes were somewhat scattered, she made a weak smile and reached out to hold Kasuo’s hand, her voice barely audible.
"Ka...Suo...it’s nice...to see you one last time. I...miss you...miss you so much..."
Kasuo was shaking uncontrollably, his face filled with despair, "I’m sorry, Aqi, all is my fault. I shouldn’t have left you alone. It’s all my fault, I was wrong, Aqi. Please, don’t go, don’t leave me..."
Aqi’s face grew increasingly pale. She coughed, and blood slowly trickled down the corner of her mouth.
She looked at Hai Qin again, a faint smile still on her face. "A... Ah Di... A-Jie didn’t run away this time. A-Jie... A-Jie promised to protect you..."
Hai Qin remained in his previous position, not daring to move an inch. He tried to widen his eyes, but his vision was still a blur.
He opened his mouth, but there was a lump in his throat that prevented any sound from coming out.
As if sensing something, the baby in his hand suddenly woke up from its sleep, crying loudly!
Aqi struggled to turn her head and looked at it. She smiled and asked Kasuo, "This is our...cub...let’s call him...Axi...Okay...yes?"
Aqi’s voice grew fainter and fainter, her eyes lost their sparkle and her smile gradually faded as she dropped her head weakly.
Kasuo clutched Aqi’s hand tightly, nodding vigorously, "I’ll do whatever you want, whatever you say. Don’t be afraid, I will be with you soon, wait for me, promise to wait for me!"
After saying these words, Kasuo gently laid Aqi down, and with an expressionless face, walked up to the Head of the Sky Swallowing Python Clan.
The Head of the Sky Swallowing Python Clan burst into laughter, saying, "Kasuo, if I can’t enjoy this life, neither will you. Your partner is going to die in my hands anyway, hahaha...ugh..."
The Head of the Sky Swallowing Python Clan’s eyes widened, before he suddenly felt dizzy. Oddly, he noticed that his body was still tied to the wooden stake.
He could no longer make sense of anything and didn’t have the energy to think anymore. He slowly closed his eyes.
The Head of the Sky Swallowing Python Clan died just like that.
Everyone was caught off guard by these sudden events, creating a moment of stunned silence.
Kasuo returned to Aqi’s side, picked her up again.
Then, as if recalling something, he removed two black pieces of obsidian from his neck and placed them around Hai Qin’s neck.
He said, "This is the Spatial Stone that your sister asked me to give to you and Ajue. Keep it safe. Your sister hoped to name the cub, Axi. And from now on, he will be your responsibility..."
Kasuo stood, holding Aqi, and began to walk forward.
All the while, he murmured to himself, "Aqi, didn’t you say you liked the sea? Shall I take you to the sea? Let’s stay in the sea forever, not coming out. And I will be with you forever, never leaving you for a moment..."
Behind them, a long trail of blood stains was left, marking their path in a shocking manner.
Wen Jue wanted to stop Kasuo, but just as he stepped forward, he stopped himself.
