Receiving the fatal blow for Hui Tai Lang on its own body, it had collapsed instead.
Fresh blood had dyed its originally snow-white fur completely red.
Hui Tai Lang had no more strength to shove the heavy Metallic Rune Pole away and save the Three-tailed Snow Fox trapped underneath. It could only bite the pole with its mouth and struggled to pull it off. Yue Yang’s words that ordered it to protect the little Three-tailed Snow Fox properly continued to ring in its ears.
Suddenly, a bloody tear dripped from Hui Tai Lang’s eyes…
“Awooooooo…”
It looked up to the sky and let out its saddest, grieving howl. Its howl could even break hearts and form tears on others’ eyes. Its bereaved cry echoed throughout the valley for a long time, reverberating continuously.
The undying Hui Tai Lang finally collapsed on top of the Metallic Rune Pole.
As it slowly closed its eyes and the bloodied view in front of it slowly faded away, that black-coloured Metallic Rune Pole suddenly emitted a faint white light. The white light grew stronger and stronger, and then, a Runic Circle appeared, clearly and vividly rising from the Metallic Rune Pole, floating into the white light. A few golden runes appeared and entered into Hui Tai Lang’s body, while some white runes entered into the Three-tailed Snow Fox’s body…
It was uncertain how much time had passed before the white light slowly dissipated and disappeared.
The Metallic Rune Pole shattered into pieces with a loud cracking sound.
The sudden sound woke Hui Tai Lang up… Its eyes suddenly opened…
