Chapter 1285: Chapter 1285 - I Will Raise The Child Myself

Little Treasure held on to Ji Mo Ya's neck tightly without relaxing.

"Uncle Fan, it is okay. I am feeling much better now."

Fifth Elder did not insist, "What are your plans now?"

Ji Mo Ya pondered, "I plan to bring Little Treasure back to the clan. He will enter closed-door seclusion with me. I will raise the child by myself from now onwards."

Fifth Elder's heart paused for a moment as this meant that Brat Ya distrusts everyone.

As Fifth Elder was contemplating, Ji Mo Ya had already walked out of Sage Cai's residence with Little Treasure in his arms.

A large and dense crowd was gathered outside. Ji Mo Ya only hugged his son tightly without uttering a word before he flew off. They were heading towards the direction of the Ji Mo Clan.

Sky Dungeon. The waves of cold wind stirred pain akin to the cutting of flesh.

The two guards that were posted at the Sky Dungeon wore specialized wind protection gear, the headdress revealed only the eyes.

"Ever since Young Master Ya visited, that Greater Demon looks as though it died?"

"Not yet? There are still signs of life. Just that it has been unconscious the past few days. Shall we go in and have a look?"

The two guards communicated.

One of the guards shook his head firmly, "No. Demons are cunning, especially so when it is a Greater Demon. What if it is only luring us inside to kill us? That will be disastrous."

"True. Even if it really died, we will not take a step closer. It deserves to die anyhow. Let us remain here and prevent it from escaping... Eh! Something is not right, it seems to be changing..."

......

In truth, the two of them have received some goodwill money from Young Master Nan Gong long ago.

And the among was substantial.

As Young Master Nan Gong did not have the permit, he was unable to visit the Sky Dungeon. That was why he located the two guards; he had requested that they not make things difficult for the Greater Demon and to ensure that it has three meals daily.

Young Master Nan Gong also gave the guards some healing items, which they had already thrown into the cell beside the Greater Demon.

However, the Greater Demon did not use those items. Allowing its injuries to continue bleeding while looking spiritless.

While the two guards were talking, the unconscious demon that was covered in injuries started to shrink visibly.

It was initially the size of a three-storey house, now it was distinctively smaller.

"What is happening? Is this some conspiracy? Let us quickly notify the Half-Sage?"

"Yes, yes. Inform the Half-Sage."

The two guards anxiously sent Plant Sage a Spirit Crane.

This was a maximum-security prison. Anything that happens must be reported directly to the Half-Sage.

Plant Sage soon reacted.

He inspected with his Divine Sense...

After a long while, "Nothing serious. The poison within the Greater Demon caused its cultivation to drop. It will not be a problem as long as it does not die. Poison Sage will handle it when he returns..."

The two guards finally calmed down.

They continue to observe the changes of the Greater Demon.

Its lifeforce was much weaker than before and it was now only two to three meters in height... in the end, it shrunk to half a meter in height, looking like a baby phoenix.

Its eyes were listless and dazed, as though there was no more life in it.

The two guards felt an unknown sense of sadness welling up in them when they saw its state.

The two of them initially held great hatred towards this Greater Demon. However, it was unknown if it was because they had spent a few days with it. When they saw the giant Greater Demon turn into such a fragile and miserable state, they could not help but feel sympathy.

"I will get some water for it..."

Blackrock City.

It remained in a state of tension during this period.

Poison Sage, Wine Sage and Sage Cai were camped here; the human army had also been reinforced to five hundred thousand!
