Chapter 49: Devouring Big Brother

The floating blue-green light in the air had dissipated.

A two-meter-tall blue-gold Blue Silver Grass stood there, its body swaying slightly, emitting a gentle breath, full of vitality.

"Don't you dare harm him!"

The voice of the Blue Silver Emperor was childish yet dignified, carrying an unquestionable tone!

The woven giant net dissipated, and Ye Qiu also stopped his actions.

"But, my Emperor, the essence you lost is still on this human!" The main body of the Blue Silver King slightly bent, as if bowing, expressing its respect for the imperial ruler.

"I don't want it anymore!" The first "I" was weak, but the latter became firm.

Ye Qiu felt she was trying to impose authority.

"How can this be allowed?!" Hearing its seemingly childish and capricious words, the Blue Silver King couldn't agree. "Without the essence, how can my Emperor return to its peak?"

"We can refrain from harming him, just retrieve the soul bone belonging to my Emperor!" Afraid that the Blue Silver Emperor wouldn't agree, it only sought the bone.

"Really?" The Blue Silver Emperor's voice became cheerful.

On the side, Ye Qiu couldn't bear it anymore. "What do you mean by not harming me, just needing the soul bone? Will you cut off my leg to get the bone?"

If that happened, wouldn't he be left limbless in the future?

"What? Cut off a leg? Absolutely not!" Upon hearing about cutting Ye Qiu's leg, the Blue Silver Emperor became unwilling again.

"Hmph! Human, with the means of my tribe, we won't let you be disabled!" First, it coldly snorted at Ye Qiu, then turned into a smiling face, respectfully persuading, "My Emperor, rest assured, he won't be in any danger!"

"No, no! Absolutely not! Cutting a leg would be so painful~ Don't you dare harm him!" The two-meter-tall Blue Silver Emperor swayed, sparkling.

"But..." The Blue Silver King wanted to say something more but was interrupted.

"No 'buts.' I like big brother the most. If you dare touch him... I'll ignore you!" The Blue Silver Emperor declared.

The Blue Silver King fell silent. It was too difficult—why were both generations of Blue Silver Emperors so difficult to handle? It was all because of those detestable humans!

Ye Qiu felt a somewhat unfriendly spiritual force sweep over him.

The vague face on the trunk of the Blue Silver King wrinkled. It felt like it needed to change its approach.

"My Emperor, I think we should talk alone!"

Without warning, the boundless Blue Silver Grass turned into a towering wall, enclosing the Blue Silver Emperor and Blue Silver King.

Although curious about what they might say, Ye Qiu's Mangekyō Sharingan could only see the swaying figures of two golden Blue Silver Grass. He was powerless to understand their conversation.

"I swear! No sportsmanship!" Ye Qiu, who was observing, shouted. Suddenly, a huge leaf appeared under his feet, wrapping his body.

Seeing the faint golden patterns, Ye Qiu knew it was the work of the Blue Silver King.

"Damn it!" Ye Qiu's face turned ugly. He couldn't mobilize his soul power. His soul power was being assimilated and absorbed by it.

Bang! After draining Ye Qiu's soul power, it tossed him aside.

Lying on the ground, Ye Qiu couldn't maintain even the Three Tomoe Sharingan with the remaining soul power in his body.

A small chair woven from Blue Silver Grass appeared in front of him.

Ye Qiu's face looked grim. This feeling of losing power was truly unpleasant.

With a wry smile, he didn't stand on ceremony, directly sitting down and waiting for the outcome of their conversation.

Just hoping that the little Blue Silver Emperor would be more reliable.

Inside the high walls,

The Blue Silver King was coaxing the young ruler, "My Emperor! Do you want to be with him forever?"

"Of course, I want to!"

Ye Qiu was the first person it saw since appearing in complete consciousness. He rescued it from the dark cave, bringing it into the light.

'And big brother's eyes are so beautiful!'

The Blue Silver Emperor, like a delicate girl, twisted and turned.

"How should I do it?"

"My Emperor, every Blue Silver Emperor will autonomously conceive the seed of the next Emperor before dying! Your inherited memories will tell you the answer!"

The Blue Silver Emperor began to browse through its memories.

"Ah!"

Issuing a surprised exclamation, it said, "Do you mean I have to eat big brother?!"

"How can that be!" It was a bit angry.

"To let you recover quickly, we can only reclaim the essence. My tribe needs your leadership and protection!" The Blue Silver King continued to supplement, "And after you devour him, you can retain his consciousness. You two will be together forever!"

Seeing the hesitation in the Blue Silver Emperor, the Blue Silver King bent its body and shouted sorrowfully.

"My Emperor! Protecting the clan is your innate mission! Please don't be willful anymore!"

They had lost an Emperor for too long. The tragedy of the previous Blue Silver Emperor must not be repeated!

"Please prioritize our clan, my Emperor!"

Countless spiritual forces of Blue Silver Grass linked to its mind, resonating like a mighty bell, creating a powerful momentum!

...

With a splashing sound, the barrier formed by Blue Silver Grass dispersed, revealing the prearranged Blue Silver King and Emperor inside.

Ye Qiu, who was venting his frustration by plucking Blue Silver Grass, also stood up.

"Big brother, come over here!" The voice of the Blue Silver Emperor echoed in Ye Qiu's ear. "They won't dare to touch you!"

Following its words, Ye Qiu walked over. Habitually wanting to pluck it, a dignified gaze made his hand freeze.

"Hehe, got used to it!" Ye Qiu awkwardly smiled at the Blue Silver King.

However, the Blue Silver Emperor actively leaned against Ye Qiu's hand and pressed against his face.

"Big brother, if I stay with you all the time, will you dislike me?"

"Huh? Aren't you staying here?" Ye Qiu glanced at the Blue Silver King on the side. What had they been talking about?

"Big brother means he dislikes me and doesn't want to be with me?" The little Blue Silver Emperor fell into melancholy.

"How could that be! I'm just afraid they'll trouble me!" Ye Qiu was still concerned about having his soul power drained. "Having you chat with me along the way has made it much easier!"

"Really?"

"Yeah, really!" Ye Qiu nodded. In his view, what bad intentions could a child have?

"My Emperor! It's time to begin. We will assist you."

At this moment, the Blue Silver King urged from the side.

"Huh? Begin what?"

Before Ye Qiu could finish his question, he felt his chest becoming wet.

In disbelief,as he looked down to see, his eyes were filled with blood.

The tiny branches of the Blue Silver Emperor turned into sharp blades, piercing through his heart.

"Big brother, don't worry. I'll always be with you~" The gentle voice of the Blue Silver Emperor lingered in his ears, but it played the game even more cunningly than the Blue Silver King!

"Human! It's an honor for you to merge with my Emperor!"

The Blue Silver King shouted excitedly on the side; their Emperor was returning!

Ye Qiu couldn't move anymore; his entire body stiffened.

Sensing his condition, the anger in his eyes gradually transformed into confusion. He didn't detect the scent of death at all. Instead, he felt warmth throughout his body.

Both he and the Blue Silver Emperor radiated a blue-golden light.

It was entering Ye Qiu's heart inch by inch!

Once again, that crisp and childish voice sounded in his ears, "Big brother, accept my gift!"

At this moment, the Blue Silver King also realized something was wrong, its voice full of horror.

"My Emperor! It's wrong, wrong! It should be you devouring him!"

As the body of the Blue Silver Emperor slowly disappeared into Ye Qiu's heart, the Blue Silver King panicked!

"Quick! My people, lend me your strength! Save my Emperor!"

This cry even echoed through the Blue Silver Forest, spreading to every Blue Silver Grass.

In dark corners, on steep cliffs, along desolate roads, all the Blue Silver Grass emitted a sparkling light, flickering in the dark night.
