There was a drizzle in the sky, and the sky was gray, as if a black curtain was covering the whole world.

And in the wilderness, a black figure was kneeling there quietly, without any life.

"Brother Xiao!"

In the distance, Lolo ran over, followed by a group of motorcycle warriors.

Immediately afterwards, Hu Shatian also arrived suddenly, and Jingjing's figure appeared. The two looked at each other and ran towards Xiao.

Due to their blurred vision, they could not see anything except a blurry figure. Only when they got closer could they finally see something clearly.

He was still wearing the same black clothes, but they were soaked by the rain. Long Yin placed them beside him and he didn't take them.

His black hair had long turned white, as pale as that of an old man.

Because he was facing away from the two people, they couldn't see the expression on Xiao's face. They could only guess that he must be very sad at the moment.

"Crazy Ape, what on earth is…"

Jingjing couldn't help but look at the Crazy Ape next to Xiao.

Kuang Liexing looked unhappy. He had a gloomy face and no one knew what he was thinking. After hearing Jingjing's words, he lowered his head and looked at her.

"Xiao... He has been crying for three days and three nights, and his hair has suddenly turned white."

Kuang Liexing's voice was muffled. He did not mention the matter of Golden Claw God and Yu Lan, which was quite a blow to him.

"Brother Xiao..."

Luo Luo couldn't help but walk forward and stand behind Xiao, and heard his mumbling.

"Why……"

"Why did the one who died...was the general..."

"Why...I wasn't the one who died..."

Xiao kept repeating these words in such a light tone that it was hard not to suspect that something was wrong with him.

"Brother Xiao, are you okay?"

Luo Luo's eyes were full of worry. She walked to Xiao's side and stretched out her hand to gently place it on his shoulder.

"Why……"

The owl's muttering suddenly paused, and he slowly turned his head.

"Why was it the general who died, not me?"

"what!"

Lolo was startled and took a few steps back and fell to the ground.

Xiao's hair was disheveled, his pale face was bloodless, his pale eyes were lifeless, empty and dead silent, a line of dried blood under his eyes was very conspicuous on his pale face.

I have cried all my tears away, and I have cried all my blood away.

No wonder Luo Luo was frightened. This owl looked like a murderous ghost.

"Why was it the general who died... and not me..."

The owl was hoarse, and its throat made an unpleasant sound because it had been crying for too long.

"Brother Xiao...it's okay...you still have us...we'll go back together, along with everyone else..."

Luo Luo endured the discomfort, stood up and approached Xiao.

"Go...back? Go back where..."

Although Xiao was looking at Luo Luo, his dilated pupils made it impossible to tell where he was looking.

"Of course, back to our human society..."

Luo Luo's voice gradually weakened because he suddenly had a bad feeling.

“Humans… heh…”

Xiao suddenly laughed, with a sarcastic smile on his lips.

"Am I... still a human being? I can't go back... That's your society... not mine."

"How could it be! Brother Xiao didn't hurt anyone, they would..."

Luo Luo suddenly thought of something and stopped talking. He looked at Jingjing behind him.

When Jingjing heard Luo Luo's words, she subconsciously clenched her arms.

"I have become a man-eating cannibal... a man-eating monster. How can I possibly gain a foothold in human society... Those who are not of my kind... must have different hearts... Don't you understand..."

Xiao started crying while laughing, but no tears could come out and he could only sob.

Luo Luo and Jing Jing were both silent.

It's not that they don't understand, it's just that they don't want to accept that the owl that took care of them tenderly would turn into a man-eating monster, be hated by everyone and even be hunted down and killed.

Because they all forgot that the owl is a cannibal, a cannibal of the queen mother, and is destined to be unable to integrate into human society.

This is no less than allowing a tiger or a lion into a breeding farm. It now becomes a matter of whether they want to eat or are hungry.

"Where the general is... that's where my home is"

Having been here for more than ten years, Xiao had long been accustomed to the existence of the Golden Claw God and regarded the Golden Claw God as his spiritual support. Now, the Golden Claw God is dead, and his spirit has collapsed.

He didn't know where to go.

He just stared at the grave in front of him and the broken hilt of the sword in silence, as if the Golden Claw God was not dead yet and was still by his side.

The sounds in my ears had disappeared. I could no longer hear the anxious voices of Lolo and the others. All that was left was the endless white ocean and the grave in front of me.

"Mecha King, stop wasting your breath. He probably can't hear you now."

Hu Shatian glanced at Xiao. The invisible white silk thread tightly wrapped around Xiao, and he seemed to be isolated by something.

No matter how Luo Luo and Jing Jing tried to comfort him, Xiao couldn't hear anything.

"Are we going to watch Xiao become so decadent and turn into a walking corpse?"

Jingjing's tone was irritable, she was a warrior of the beast tribe who liked her, but she preferred the owl who was also a human being, not to mention that the owl took good care of her, which made her experience family love that her family never had.

Groan!

The dragon's roar resounded in the sky. They all raised their heads, and the red body was looming.

But the body seemed to be passing by and did not stop.

"Is Zhu Jiuyao here to watch the show?"

Jingjing frowned her beautiful eyebrows, and a fierce look flashed in her golden eyes.

"of course not"

A response suddenly came from beside her. Jingjing's heart skipped a beat. She turned her head and saw Zhu Jiuyao standing next to Hu Shatian.

Hu Shatian remained silent. Upon closer inspection, his arms were still shaking slightly.

"I just noticed something strange here, so I came to take a look."

Zhu Jiuyao's eyes never left Xiao, and he didn't make any other movements, he just watched.

"Hey, you won't just watch Xiao become so depressed, right?"

Jingjing folded her arms across her chest and glanced at Zhu Jiuyao.

"If Black Dragon continues like this, I'm afraid this is not what you want to see."

Huo Lei Ting spoke at the right time, his tone a little serious.

"What does it have to do with me?"

Zhu Jiuyao's answer was beyond everyone's expectations, his answer was cold and ruthless.

"You, didn't you say that Brother Xiao is the heir? Then you can't just watch Brother Xiao become like this!"

Luo Luo’s eyes widened and she looked at Zhu Jiuyao in disbelief.

"Heir? That's just a matter of a word from me. As long as I say he is the heir, then he will become the heir. Don't you think I will really test him? Do you think I care about him?"

Zhu Jiuyao was amused and looked at Luo Luo with amusement.

"you!"

Lolo looked at Zhu Jiuyao in disbelief. His smile seemed extremely cold in Lolo's eyes.

It turns out that he never cared about anyone from the beginning. He only cared about himself and his own interests.

It's just whether he wants to do it, not whether he can do it.

It was as if they were getting to know Zhu Jiuyao all over again. The current Zhu Jiuyao was very unfamiliar. Was everything just an act by him?

Zhu Jiuyao ignored their gazes and thoughts, but just looked at Xiao with his optical glasses slightly narrowed.

Suddenly, a dark shadow appeared silently in front of Xiao.

A scarlet color then lit up.

"Black Xuanming?"

Zhu Jiuyao was a little surprised and looked Hei Xuanming up and down.

"Dragon Soul? That shouldn't be the case. With his strength, he shouldn't become an accident to Dragon Soul? It doesn't seem likely..."

Zhu Jiuyao frowned slightly, which was rare, but he didn't act too surprised.

Hei Xuanming stood quietly in front of Xiao, and there was darkness in the optical mirror.

His figure was looming, he had already died, and what appeared was just a phantom.

Hei Xuanming raised his head slightly. Even though there was no light, he could still see the striking murderous intent and coldness.

"I'm already dead, but you're still thinking about how to kill me"

Zhu Jiuyao chuckled and didn't take it seriously at all.

There is no threat to him, so why should he bother?

Hei Xuanming withdrew his gaze, lowered his head and looked at the owl on the ground. He moved his joints stiffly and slowly half-knelt on the ground.

He raised his hands, holding a black crown.

There are many sharp thorns protruding from the black dragon's coiled body, just like Hei Xuanming's bumpy life full of thorns. Black and red crystals are embedded in the black dragon's body, and red lines overflow from the embedded points to the surroundings, just like blood.

"Black Dragon Crown?"

Zhu Jiuyao looked at the crown in surprise.

"what is that?"

Luo Luo withdrew his gaze and shifted it to Zhu Jiuyao.

"The Black Dragon Crown is the king's token of the Black Dragon Clan. No matter if it is a Sky Dragon, a Black Dragon or a Candle Dragon, they all have a king's token. Only those who are recognized by the king's token are the kings and have the power to compete for the position of the clan leader's successor."

Zhu Jiuyao did not hide anything and answered their questions happily.

"The Black Dragon Crown of the Black Dragon Clan and the Dragon King Scepter of the Sky Dragon Clan are both tokens of the king."

"how about yours?"

"My Lord? The Zhulong clan has never needed the recognition of the King's Token. Only the strong can recognize the position of the King."

"..."

You are strong and you have the final say!

Luo Luo complained silently, then turned his attention to Hei Xuanming.

Hei Xuanming moved his stiff arms and slowly placed the Black Dragon Crown on Xiao's head.

Weng——

The Black Dragon Crown emitted a faint light, and Hei Xuanming's optical mirror also flashed a faint red light. He seemed to be expecting something.

click!

Suddenly, a crisp sound came from the Black Dragon Crown, and before Hei Xuanming could make any move, the crown instantly shattered into pieces and fell to the ground.

Hei Xuanming paused, and the light from the optical mirror gradually disappeared.

"Don't waste your energy, Hei Xuanming. You are the king recognized by the crown. No one else can wear that crown except you."

Zhu Jiuyao knew everything and was not surprised that the crown would break.

Hei Xuanming looked at the fragments unmoved, then moved his fingers, and the fragments condensed into a crown again and floated in his hand.

He once again put the crown on Xiao's head with his own hands, and as expected, the crown shattered again.

"You won't forget that the Black Dragon Crown can only be trusted to change hands three times. If it breaks three times, you will lose the chance to become the king, and you will no longer be the king of the Black Dragon clan."

Zhu Jiuyao frowned. He didn't know why Hei Xuanming did all this.

Hei Xuanming ignored Zhu Jiuyao. He just stared at the fragments on the ground in a daze.

After a while, Hei Xuanming lifted the crown again, for the last time.

However, he did not rush to put it on Xiao. Instead, he looked at Xiao. A black light floated out from his body and slowly fell on Xiao's eyebrows and merged into his body.

"Hei Xuanming! Are you stupid?!"
