2552 An Interregnum 4 (1/2)
Those Sea Spirit Beasts, some have been domesticated since young, some were injured during the hunts and brought back alive to Sea Spirit City. It was unknown how long these beasts have been trapped in this dirty, dinghy place. No one knew as well how long these beasts have had to endure the constant, torturous pain. Their eyes have long since lost the light as they stayed numbed within the pool.
Even as they saw Jun Wu Xie and others approaching, these beasts did not have a single reaction. They were like a pile of zombies without any movements.
The eyes of Fei Yan and the others were rimmed red, and could not stand to look any more.
Qiao Chu glared with his red eyes and rushed to the side of the pool, as he wanted to quickly unplug the bamboo tubes that were inserted into the Sea Spirit Beasts. But he was stopped by Jun Wu Xie.
”You pull the bamboo tubes out now, they will die.”
Qiao Chu's hand froze in mid-air as he looked at those numbed beasts, his nose could not stand the acetic stench.
”Little Xie, you save them…..” Qiao Chu looked at Jun Wu Xie.
Jun Wu Xie nodded lightly and made Qiao Chu step aside. She didn't hurry to handle the bamboo tube, she only raised her hand and put it on the head of the Sea Spirit Beast, closed her eyes, as she remembered the method that Zi Fei had once taught her, using her own consciousness to communicate goodwill to the Sea Spirit Beast.
Qiao Chu and the rest stood aside but were pricked with panic, and they didn't know what messages were exchanged between Jun Wu Xie and the Sea Spirit Beast.
They only saw that the long-lost light was reignited in the eyes of the Sea Spirit Beast, and there was a glimmer of tears in that vague moment.
They had given up hope as they waited to be robbed of their last value, and then be slaughtered, but they didn't think that…. They saw a glimmer of hope.
