Chapter 256: The freedom that Gula was waiting for, I, Hoshino, achieved it.
The dizziness and the sense of approaching death made my whole body numb, and Gula's last words to me echoed in my head.
I think I won't live long, but I still have something to say to Kru. The female who was deceived will not really accept a stray beast.
Just when my consciousness was blurred, the power in my body finally awakened. The white beast ring concentrated the toxins in my body on the tail needle, and I involuntarily turned into a human form.
The appearance of the beast ring made me more conscious, but it also made me more painful.
It hurts, it hurts a lot, but compared to what Gula said, it's nothing.
All the love and affection over the years now seems like a joke.
I lay there for a long, long time, until the beast ring's digestion of the toxin slowed down. When I was visited by the god of death again, I felt that I should not die.
Suddenly, I feel that the freedom that Gula talked about is very precious.
I also want freedom. Females cannot be free because they have no power or strength, but I do.
As long as I abandon everything and get rid of all my obsessions, I will be free.
It’s just like what I thought when I was a kid, do whatever you want, and if you see someone you don’t like, just go up and do it!
As long as I don't put shackles on myself, I will always be free!
I climbed up, with snakes and scorpions hanging from my body, and I just looked into the cave entrance and, well, I couldn't get up there.
So, I made a bold decision, a very wild decision.
Eat it!
After I finished off the beasts, I scooped up a handful of brightly colored snakes and scorpions and stuffed them directly into my mouth.
Bright red blood flowed from my mouth, but I didn't shed any tears from beginning to end.
I think I can’t be called Axing anymore, I should be called Xingye.
A very wild and beautiful star.
I don’t know how much I ate from the beasts in the pit, but I just felt that I couldn’t stop. If I stopped, I would die, and I didn’t want to die.
Until Kru saw me, my appearance scared everyone.
"Axing!" Kru called me.
His huge tail fell down and I grabbed it without any hesitation.
I still remember what I said at that time. I smiled contemptuously at Kru, "Kru! From now on, my name is: Xingye."
Kru didn't hit me, nor did he say anything. He just looked at me and nodded.
He has entered the Purple Ring, and I should have congratulated him, but I'm not in the mood and I'm too lazy to give him a perfunctory response.
Returning to the scorpion beast herd, the cave where Gula had lived before had been filled up by Kru. I also knew that he should have looked for Gula.
I didn't go to him for confirmation, and he didn't ask me why I was in the beast pit.
It was as if we had reached some kind of tacit understanding between us.
During the two winter seasons when I was still a child, I lived with the scorpion beasts as usual, and I also fought with many of them.
It was not until I killed a green-ring orc with poison that all the orcs looked askance at my toxicity.
After I became an adult, I entered the green ring and I also entered the female cave for the first time. Kru saw it and wanted to say something, but in the end he said nothing.
I know why, because he is not qualified, Gula doesn't love him, and his way is wrong.
I stood in the female cave, looking at the orcs still lying on the female, frowning slightly, and walked forward and kicked them twice.
"Go away, didn't you see I was coming?"
"Xing, Xingye..." The scorpion beast was stunned, but when he thought that I had lived for twenty winter seasons, he understood.
Even though I only have a green ring now, I am fully capable of defeating a blue-ring orc, so I can still have a place in this group of scorpion beasts even without Kru.
Several scorpion beasts ran away. I looked at a group of females, took out a huge wooden barrel from the space bag, and filled it with clean water.
"Wash?"
The females looked at each other, thinking that I disliked their dirtiness, and they dared not move, fearing that after they were clean, I would...
"Do you want to wash or not? If not, I'm leaving." I yawned, leaned against the stone wall, lowered my eyes and tried not to look at their bodies.
The females went into the wooden barrels to take a bath, and I didn't go out either. I knew that as soon as I went out, someone else would come in.
After they finished bathing, I took out a pile of animal skins, threw them to them and said, "These are for you. If you can make clothes, make them yourself. If you can't, just put them on. I don't want to see you naked next time I come."
The females all had red faces, as if they had never seen a scorpion beast like me. I stayed in the female cave for the whole night, far away from them, and did nothing.
Since then, I have gone there every few days, which is like giving them a holiday.
But today, I decided to ignore them.
"Hoshino, I want to be your partner... Can you take me away?" The most beautiful female among them had just finished taking a bath, wrapped in an animal skin and stood in front of me with a blushing face.
I looked at her and said lazily, "Like me? What do you like about me? Do you like me so much that I can take you away?"
"You are very strong and can protect me. I also want to leave the scorpion group." The female said in a low voice.
I don't know what gave her the illusion that I would take her away, take her away, and then be abandoned by her?
I just sympathize with them, it doesn't mean I'm stupid.
"I like females that are different." I refused.
The female was stunned for a moment, blushing and said: "I... look..."
Not bad, I know.
But I'm not interested. Just because he looks good won't make me give up my freedom, nor will it give me the courage to experience the feeling of being abandoned again.
I had no interest in saying anything more to her, so I turned and left the female, said hello to Kru, dug a hole near the herd of scorpion beasts, and then began to challenge the stray beasts using the mole tribe as the dividing line.
Time flies by. I have firmly established my reputation as the Poison King in the areas west and north of Xida Road. I also go to the Misty Forest from time to time.
After living for twenty-five cold seasons, my beast ring had begun to turn purple. Although I had not yet entered the purple ring, I knew that as long as I went to the Misty Forest and killed the ferocious beasts with purple beast crystals, I could become a purple ring.
Kru came here the same way.
So, I went back to the scorpion herd again. It rained heavily this rainy season, and I was very annoyed because my hair was too long and it was very uncomfortable when it got wet and stuck to my skin.
"Kru, I'm going to the Misty Forest. It will probably take a long time this time."
Kelu didn't say anything, just looked at the others and said in a cold voice: "You want to rob the females in White Lion City, you can go by yourselves, I won't go."
I had never seen a scorpion beast group go out on such a large scale, so I said, "If Kru doesn't want to go, I'll go, but I have to tell you in advance that I will act based on my mood."
I feel that I am more like a stray animal than Kru, because now I am truly free, the freedom that Gula has been waiting for for more than a dozen winter seasons but has not yet achieved.
I just didn’t expect that this sudden impulse would make me willing to give up my freedom and be bound by love.
