717 Burial

Even though Bai Di tried his best to dodge, he was still burned by the flames. His snow-white fur was charred.

Yan looked at his miserable appearance and was quite proud. “I gave you a chance to cooperate with us. You’re the one who’s stupid and doesn’t know how to seize the opportunity. In that case, we’ll have to send you off ourselves.”

Bai Di didn’t argue. There was a faint flash of electricity when his tiger claws touched the ground.

The sea of fire spread and surrounded the white tiger.

He was forced to retreat step by step, looking even more miserable.

Yan deliberately turned the flames in the gra.s.s into countless fire snakes. They pounced on Bai Di from all directions, leaving him nowhere to hide. More and more burns appeared on his body, and the smell of burning flesh filled the air.

Even when forced into a corner, Bai Di never looked anxious or desperate.

Zhi instinctively felt that something was wrong. He was about to tell his brother to stop playing and get rid of Bai Di.

However, before he could say anything, he saw the white tiger suddenly jump onto the tree. Yan thought that he was about to escape and quickly controlled the fire snakes to chase after Bai Di.

The tiger claw turned around on the tree trunk.

Instead of fleeing, the white tiger turned around and pounced on the flames.

The fire snakes misjudged and missed.

But before Yan could react, the white tiger had already rushed in front of him.

He hurriedly controlled the flames to entangle the white tiger.

However, the flames were split by electricity. The powerful electricity rushed into Yan, numbing him. He fell to his knees.

Zhi rushed over to protect him.

The white tiger was also burned and covered in wounds.

It was not appropriate to fight anymore.

He quickly retreated without any hesitation. In the blink of an eye, he was gone.

Zhi helped Yan up and bandaged his wound. “You were careless,” he reprimanded coldly. “Bai Di isn’t as strong as us, but he’s meticulous. If you’re not careful, he’ll take advantage of you.”

Yan’s expression was ugly. He gritted his teeth and swore, “One day, I’ll kill him. Let’s see if he dares to tease me again!”

Bai Di was still running.

After a sleepless night, he finally arrived at Sun City the next morning.

The white tiger was seriously injured. When he reached the door, he could no longer hold on. He fell to the ground and fainted.

The guards saw that the second prince was back and immediately went to fetch him. They picked Bai Di up and carried him back to the palace.

Bai Luo was receiving an envoy from the 10,000 Beast Temple.

This envoy was none other than Shuang Jing, one of the 12 divine guards.

A servant hurried in and said to Bai Luo in a low voice, “Your Majesty, His Second Highness is back.”

Bai Luo was delighted.

It had been several years since they last saw each other.

Bai Luo was in no mood to entertain Shuang Jing anymore. He got someone to bring Shuang Jing to the guest room to rest, then he quickly ran to look for Bai Di.

When he ran into the house and saw Bai Di, he froze.

The white tiger was lying on the bed, dying. His fur was charred, and there were wounds of various sizes everywhere.

Bai Luo’s expression changed drastically. He immediately got someone to invite the high priest over.

Before long, Wen Qian arrived surrounded by many divine servants. When he saw the seriously injured Bai Di, he was stunned. “Why is His Highness so seriously injured? Who injured him?”

Bai Luo was very anxious. “I don’t know either. Treat him first.”

He didn’t trust Wen Qian very much, but in the entire Sun City, Wen Qian was the best at medicine. He could only put aside his past grudges for the time being and choose to believe Wen Qian.

Wen Qian checked Bai Di’s injuries. “His Highness is seriously injured. I’m afraid he’s about to die.”

Hearing this, Bai Luo immediately panicked.

“Can’t you cure him?”

Wen Qian shook his head. “I’m sorry, there’s nothing I can do.”

Bai Luo was exasperated. “As the high priest of the Sun G.o.d Temple, you can’t even do this. What use do I have for you?!”

Wen Qian calmly washed his hands, then took a handkerchief from the divine servant behind him and carefully wiped the water off his fingers. He said slowly, “If a person can be saved, I’ll naturally do my best to save them. But if a person can’t be saved, we can only leave it to fate. Your Majesty, please accept my condolences.”

“Shut up!”

“On account of the imminent death of Your Majesty’s brother, I won’t take what Your Majesty just said to heart. But if Your Majesty says anything nasty again, I’ll have to educate Your Majesty on behalf of His Majesty the late king.”

The high priest and the beast king were of equal status, but Bai Luo had just succeeded the throne, and his foundation was still unstable. In addition, he was much younger than Wen Qian. It was only right for Wen Qian to ‘educate’ him as an elder.

Normally, Bai Luo would definitely not continue arguing with Wen Qian.

But now, his mind was filled with the image of his second brother dying.

He was very afraid that his second brother would die. His mind was a mess, and he didn’t even think before he spoke. He looked like he was going to risk everything. “If my brother dies here today, don’t even think about leaving the palace alive!”

Wen Qian threw the handkerchief to the ground and questioned in a low voice, “Your Majesty, are you planning to let me die with your second brother?”

“Yes!”

Wen Qian sneered. “What a brotherly relations.h.i.+p. Unfortunately, you can’t keep me here with your ability.”

He turned to leave.

Bai Luo immediately ordered, “Stop him!”

The divine servants immediately stood in front of Wen Qian. “Who dares to touch the high priest?!”

Neither side was willing to back down. The atmosphere suddenly became tense.

At this moment, Shuang Jing suddenly appeared.

He easily avoided all the guards and walked in silently. His round cat eyes swept over, and he saw Bai Di lying on the bed, seriously injured.

“Hey, is Bai Di going to die?”

Bai Luo retorted angrily, “My brother won’t die! He’ll definitely survive!”

Shung Jing walked over and examined Bai Di’s injuries. “He’s quite seriously injured. Fortunately, he was lucky enough to meet me.”

Bai Luo was stunned for a moment before quickly asking, “You can save my brother?”

Wen Qian also looked at Shuang Jing. Of course, he knew Shuang Jing’s ident.i.ty as a divine guard, but he did not know why Shuang Jing was here. He looked at Shuang Jing with a probing gaze.

Shuang Jing waved at Wen Qian. “If there’s nothing else, please go back. It’s not convenient for you to hear what I’m about to say.”

This order was merciless. Wen Qian’s expression changed slightly, and he was a little angry.

However, Wen Qian could not argue with the divine guard directly. He could only suppress his anger and turn to leave with a straight face.

When the footsteps were gone and he was sure that Wen Qian had left, Shuang Jing spoke.

“Actually, I came to Sun City on the orders of the prophet to deliver something to Bai Di.”

Bai Luo was very surprised. “What is it?”

Shuang Jing took out a small wooden box.

He opened the box and saw three black pills.
