There were cauldrons that were three hundred meters tall, and there were palaces that reached into the clouds. Across this desolate land, there were signs of glory.
Now, this place was broken, bleak, dead, and desolate. Even the sun, moon, and stars seemed to have abandoned this place. There was no light at all.
Boundless darkness shrouded this once glorious land, as if dawn would never come.
Only around a small dilapidated palace were four candlesticks burning faintly, bringing a little bit of light into the darkness, but it was only limited to this small area.
In the darkness, a red cat held a flickering oil lamp in its mouth. It followed the dim light through the endless darkness.
A little boy was sleeping soundly on its back, drooling from the corner of his mouth.
When the old cat carried the little boy to the palace that was still lit up, a scary beast descended from the sky. It landed in front of the plaza. Its eyes were like black holes. It looked at Old Cat angrily. "Nine-Life, you dare to come back? It looks like you have the resolve to use your life to atone for your sins. Then, let me end your sins."
After that, the big beast opened its mouth. It looked like it was going to swallow the whole world.
"Its life doesn't belong to you alone. Even death can't wash away its sins. I want to send it into the endless cycle of reincarnation and let it suffer endless torment for eternity. Only then can I wash away its sins." A crimson red majestic beast walked out from the darkness.
"You are all wrong. Its life does not belong to anyone. I will split it into a thousand or ten thousand creatures. Then, I will kill one every day. I will use different methods to kill it every day. It will suffer endless pain every day."
A devilish voice came from the top of the palace. A strange bird was standing there. It looked like a ghost was staring at Old Cat.
"What fun is there in that?
If it was me, I would kill it slowly. I would kill it every day and night. I would make sure it never dies. That is the only way to wash away the hatred in my heart. "
A very seductive woman slowly walked out of the palace. She looked at Old Cat with eyes full of hatred. Her eyes were cold.
"Cough, cough, why do you want to kill me?
We are best friends, "Nine Cat said innocently.
"Roar!"
The four terrifying Demon Kings roared in unison, as if the entire dark world was about to be torn apart by their anger.
"You still dare to say that we are friends?
If it weren't for you, how could we have suffered so much pain and regret? How could the Holy Land have fallen to such a state … I wish I could peel off your skin and drink your blood … "
The four Demon King-like creatures let out the most vicious curses as they surrounded Old Cat.
"Old friends, don't be so nervous. I'm here to save you."
Old Cat looked at the angry creature with a smile on his face. He said slowly, "That's right, Old Cat.
"Save us?
What right do you have? "The woman curled her lips in disdain.
"Him?" Old Cat didn't give the other three Demon Kings a chance to speak. He put Littleflower down.
The four Demon King-like creatures looked at the sleeping Littleflower.
"What the hell is this?
Is this food you are offering us?
It's not even enough to fill the gaps between our teeth. You want us to forgive you? "the big beast coldly asked.
"If you eat him, the Holy Land will never see the light of day again."
Old Cat stopped smiling and looked serious. "He will become the holy child. He will bring the Holy Land back to its former glory. The world will know what true fear is."
"Him?
Are you kidding me?
You have been hiding in the sanctuaries for so many years. Have you lost your mind? "The woman looked at him with disdain.
"Jiu Ming, do you think you can fool us with your flowery words?" The strange bird that looked like a malicious spirit said coldly.
The other two beasts roared. They couldn't help but want to eat Old Cat.
"Are you all stupid?
Look at him and see if he is different. "Old Cat wasn't afraid. He pointed at Littleflower.
The four creatures looked at Littleflower. After a while, the weird bird suddenly opened its wings and flew in front of Littleflower. It lowered its head, and its ghostly eyes almost touched Littleflower's body. It couldn't believe what it was seeing.
"How is that possible? Impossible! How is he …" The weird bird was so excited that it couldn't finish a sentence.
The beautiful woman looked as if she saw something. Her eyes opened wide, and she couldn't believe it. She said, "Old Cat, what did you do to him? How can he have the Sacred Leader's power?"
"Idiot, what can I do? Of course, it's because he's already trained in the Holy Master's technique." Old Cat teased mercilessly.
"That … That's impossible … How can someone learn the Holy Leader's technique?" The red beast stared at Littleflower, who was fast asleep. It was both surprised and happy.
"You saw it with your own eyes. What is impossible?
Could the power in his body fool anyone?
If you guys can raise him, when he grows up, it won't be difficult for Holy Land to come back. "Old Cat lifted his lips.
The four demon-like creatures had forgotten what they had just said. They didn't care about Old Cat, who they wanted to kill. The four of them each looked in one direction, with the sleeping Littleflower in the middle. They looked at Littleflower as if they were looking at some rare treasure.
"Woman, test him. Don't let that b * stard Nine Lives trick us again," the weird bird said to the beautiful woman.
"Yes, you have to see it," the other two beasts said.
The woman nodded. She reached out her finger and pointed at Littleflower. There was a pink light on the tip of her finger.
Screech!
Before the woman's finger touched Littleflower, a white swordlight came out of Littleflower. It extinguished the pink light on the woman's finger.
"It's real … It's real …" Before the woman could say anything, the other three beasts roared with excitement.
The woman moved her hand, and Littleflower's body floated up. He landed in the woman's arms. The woman hugged Littleflower as if she was hugging the most precious treasure in the world. Her hands were shaking.
"The holy son is back … We have hope again."
The sound of crying echoed in the endless night. It was hard to tell if it was excitement or sadness.
