Chapter 733 - 733 You Can't Save Me

733 You Can’t Save Me

The prophet’s words made Huanhuan understand.

“You mean I can change the future?”

“Yes.”

The prophet’s answer gave Huanhuan confidence. She quickly asked, “What can I do to change the future?”

“Use your own eyes.”

Huanhuan didn’t understand. “My eyes?”

“My eyes can see the future and see through people. My unconfused eyes can see thousands of miles away. Your eyes…”

Huanhuan held her breath.

The prophet’s fingertips brushed the corner of her eye. “You have beautiful eyes. They can confuse people.”

Huanhuan was confused.

“Haven’t you realized? Your face is getting prettier. Some people can’t help but be attracted to you when they see your face. Then, they do things even they can’t control.”

Hearing the prophet’s words, Huanhuan was the first to think of Ah Gui.

It was because he saw her face that he immediately seemed to be possessed and wanted her by hook or by crook.

At that time, she thought that the other party had fallen in love with her face at first sight. Now, it seemed that there was something else going on.

Huanhuan subconsciously touched her cheek. “I usually cover my face with a snow silk veil and try not to let anyone see me lest I cause trouble.”

“You can still cover your face most of the time, but you can show it when necessary. Appearance is your weapon. It can mesmerize others so that you can use them.”

Huanhuan understood immediately. “I see!”

“But you have to remember that the stronger the other party is, the more determined they are and the less success you have in confusing them.”

Huanhuan nodded. “Yes, I’ll remember.”

It suddenly started to drizzle outside.

The temperature in the mountain was already low, but it was even colder now.

The prophet coughed again.

“Cough, cough!”

Huanhuan quickly boiled water with sh.e.l.lfish gra.s.s and brought it to him.

The sh.e.l.lfish gra.s.s could moisten the throat and stop coughing. After the prophet drank it, his throat felt better, and his coughing weakened.

He instructed softly, “The people in the City of 10,000 Beasts are very complicated, especially the Elders’ a.s.sociation. They can’t be trusted. If you encounter any trouble in the future, you can get the 12 divine guards to help.”

Huanhuan didn’t want to hear this, but she knew that the prophet was doing this for her own good. She could only listen silently.

“Since Xuan Wei left, there have only been 11 divine guards left. The position for the 12th divine guard is still unfilled. You can ask Bai Di later. If he’s willing, let him inherit his brother’s position.”

Huanhuan agreed in a m.u.f.fled voice. “Okay.”

“If the Elders’ a.s.sociation doesn’t accept your control, you don’t have to be polite to them. Do whatever you have to do. However, you have to be more careful. Although the Elders’ a.s.sociation is nothing to be afraid of, there must be others behind them. When you’re not confident that you can hit them with one strike, try not to fight them head-on.”

“Oh.”

“After I leave, Little Brat will return to you. He’ll help you sit firmly in the position of the prophet in my place.”

Huanhuan looked at him eagerly. “Can you not leave?”

“I don’t want to leave either, but this body of mine is already at the end of its rope. Even if I don’t go down the mountain, I won’t live long.”

Huanhuan immediately rolled up her sleeves, revealing her snow-white wrists. “My blood can save people. If you drink a few mouthfuls of my blood, your body might recover!”

But the prophet said, “You can’t save me.”

“Why?”

The prophet didn’t answer. He just stroked Huanhuan’s hair. “It’s getting late. That’s the end of the conversation. Go to sleep. Pregnant women need to rest. It’s better for the fetus.”

Seeing that he was unwilling to say more, Huanhuan couldn’t pester him anymore. She lay down obediently on the animal hide cus.h.i.+on and closed her eyes to rest.

She had planted many Moonlight Mushrooms beside the pool in advance. They were close together, and the caps emitted a faint blue light.

When she was in a daze, Huanhuan suddenly felt a sharp pain in her abdomen!

She woke up immediately and exclaimed softly, “It hurts!”

The prophet seemed to have expected this moment.

He didn’t sleep at all and just stayed by Huanhuan’s side. When he saw that she was awake from the pain, he immediately raised his hand and gently pressed it against her abdomen. He felt the intense fetal movement in her stomach.

The prophet said gently, “Don’t be afraid. This is a sign of impending labor. The child will come out soon.”

Huanhuan felt as if her intestines were being grabbed by a big hand and twisted fiercely. It hurt so much that she wished she was dead.

She clearly had a smooth time giving birth to Eggy previously. Why was it so difficult to give birth to Clement this time?!

Wasn’t she just laying eggs?!

The prophet lifted her clothes, revealing her fair abdomen. Her originally flat abdomen was now slightly bulging. A faint layer of black gas could be vaguely seen enveloping her.

It was the demonic aura that the demon fetus was born with.

A loud bang suddenly came from outside the cave. It was thunder!

The prophet bit his finger and squeezed out two drops of blood. He smeared the blood on her abdomen.

The blood quickly melted into her stomach.

Huanhuan felt the pain ease a lot. It still hurt, but at least it was still within her tolerance.

There were two more loud bangs. Lightning flashed and thunder rumbled outside the cave. Soon, it began to rain heavily.

It was as if the heavens knew that the demon fetus was about to descend and wanted to stop his birth.

Huanhuan was secretly glad that the cave they had chosen was relatively high in location and not easily flooded.

The prophet turned his head in the direction of the cave’s entrance. He frowned slightly at something. “The demonic aura has spread. Those demons are approaching. They should be here soon.”

Huanhuan was very nervous. “Should we go somewhere else to hide?”

“There’s no way to hide. The demons can follow the demonic aura to find us. Unless we kill your child, it’s impossible to stop the demonic aura from spreading.”

Huanhuan covered the child in her stomach. The child was about to be born. As a mother, how could she be ruthless enough to kill them?!

“So what do we do now?”

The prophet wiped the sweat from her forehead. “Don’t be afraid. I’m here.”

“Can you do it alone?”

“No problem. I’m a prophet. A few demons are nothing to me.”

The prophet touched her abdomen and said gently, “Good child, be good. Don’t torture your mother. She loves you very much.”

The child in his stomach seemed to really understand him and was much quieter.

The prophet stood up. “I’ll guard outside the cave.”

Seeing that he was about to leave, Huanhuan involuntarily grabbed his sleeve.

He looked down at her. “What’s wrong?”

“If you’re in danger, come back quickly. Don’t take any chances.”

“Okay.”

When Huanhuan loosened her fingers, the prophet walked out of the cave without looking back.

He quickly disappeared into the rain.

The cave was blocked by hanging vines, so Huanhuan couldn’t see what was going on outside. She could only pray that everything would go well and that the prophet would be safe.

Before long, the pain came again.
