Chapter 177 -176: Why Don’t You Go to Heaven (Asking for Votes)
Boom.
Boom.
Boom.
The dense blasts created shockwaves that shattered the glass of numerous buildings on the outskirts of the city.
The battle in the night sky was still ongoing, or rather, the one-sided crushing was still in full swing.
In the gasps of the citizens, a bird-shaped mutant creature, emitting a faint blue glow, was struck from below by dark-red flaming wings, leaving trails of steam in midair caused by the high temperature.
Before the Ice Crystal Bird could react, the Burning Wings swiftly dove from high above, returning with a sharp turn, dragging brilliant tail flames, and struck again from underneath.
Boom.
The Ice Crystal Bird was thrown about by the tremendous force, and with the spread of steam, one could only hear its increasingly faint cries of pain.
After a long while, when the sounds of the explosions had ceased and the smoke had cleared, only the cold moon hung in the night sky.
After a brief silence, the crowd suddenly burst into cheers.
The distant sound of police sirens approached, and several middle-aged people started to get arrogant again, discontentedly saying they wanted to complain.
The young people who had recorded the event hurried to upload their videos, and it was easy to imagine that for the “Supporters of the Burning Wings” and the other competitors, tonight was destined to be a sleepless one.
…
Thud.
The charred and hairless Ice Crystal Bird fell from the sky, the massive impact kicking up rolling dust, startling Shao Zifeng.
Qiuqiu landed slowly, flapping its wings, and the hot air currents it produced dispersed the lingering dust.
Its sharp claws were pressed tightly against the Ice Crystal Bird’s body, looking down at it with disdain as if it was nothing more than a pile of trash.
As Qiuqiu moved away, the magma that had gradually cooled down began churning again as if welcoming the arrival of a king.
Its massive size, ferocious spikes, and the invisible dragon’s might that it exuded, at this moment, made Shao Zifeng feel an unexpected sense of alienation.
“Qiuqiu?”
He placed the concealed blade into a crack in the ground and staggered a few steps forward, standing not far in front of Qiuqiu, with no strength left, he lifted his arm, covered in crusted blood, wanting to touch it.
Qiuqiu’s gold and red pupils shifted, looking down at Shao Zifeng from its superior position.
A man and a ball…
No, that’s not right.
An egg and a ball, they stood there in a deadlock, neither moving, but each pupil reflected the other’s figure.
When Qiuqiu saw the blood scab on Shao Zifeng’s arm, the claws gripping the Ice Crystal Bird involuntarily tightened, digging into its neck and releasing blood laced with blue particles that slowly oozed onto the hot ground, instantly evaporating into powder.
The Ice Crystal Bird’s eyes rolled back in agony, but it couldn’t make a sound due to its throat being clamped, weakly gazing at its faraway owner with tears of sadness.
Qiuqiu’s scaled head drew near slowly, and Shao Zifeng could feel the scorching breath it exhaled, feeling somewhat uneasy in his heart, yet he didn’t step back, his gaze still locked with Qiuqiu’s.
Suddenly, he felt an uneven touch on his forehead as Qiuqiu gently pressed its large head against his.
Tranquil moonlight draped over their bodies as if they were back on the rooftop of the rental house that night.
Like that night, Shao Zifeng had held the small Qiuqiu close, their foreheads touching, their eyes meeting, each sharing their dreams with the other.
Qiuqiu’s ferocious Scale Armor slowly drew in, clinging tightly to its body, and the proud dragon wings on its back gradually dissipated, accompanied by a wave of familiar emotions.
“Egg, I miss you…”
…
In the family housing of the Abnormal Administration Bureau in Su City, Chen Zhenglong, who had been busy all day, had just laid down to sleep when He Juan’s restless little hand began to move, about to touch him, but the sudden, urgent ringing of a cellphone jolted him awake.
Chen Zhenglong, dressed in silk pyjamas, hurriedly got up to answer the phone, his brows knitting together when he saw the caller ID.
He Juan’s hand grasped at nothing, quickly withdrawing under the covers, pretending to be just woken and muttered sleepily, “What is it, darling?”
Chen Zhenglong kissed her apologetically on the face, got up, and walked to the balcony, “Some work stuff, you go to sleep first, my dear.”
With that, he opened the sliding door of the balcony, his expression serious as he answered the phone, feeling a sudden bad premonition.
That kid, he better not have exploded something again.
“Hello, old classmate… huh, not exploded?”
“That’s good, that’s good, just a knife involved… what did you say?”
“Armed with a knife and making threats!!!”
…
In the deep pit created by the collapse of the Fifth Hospital’s parking lot, Qiuqiu rested its large head on Shao Zifeng’s legs, while Shao Zifeng leaned against it, letting it curl him up with its head and tail in the middle.
The surrounding magma was gradually solidifying, with bubbles occasionally bursting, but the surface was slowly turning black.
Qiuqiu made cooing sounds as if displaying coquetry from time to time, and with their eyes closed, they communicated through empathy.
When the conversation turned joyous, Qiuqiu’s tail would swing back and forth like a little cat’s, although with much more force, scaring the Ice Crystal Bird into shivering.
“You said you wanted to take me flying?” Shao Zifeng opened his eyes, looking at Qiuqiu, which was tilting its head trying to look cute, and couldn’t help but shudder.
Of course,
it wasn’t because it was unsuitable for trying to be cute.
Though that was also a factor.
Mainly, the last flying experience was so terrifying that it left him with an immeasurable psychological shadow.
Ding-a-ling-a-ling.
Before Qiuqiu could respond, the urgent ring of a cell phone suddenly broke the silence between them.
Shao Zifeng pulled out his phone from his pocket.
Tsk, just half a year and it needs to be replaced again.
“Hello! Zifeng?”
Upon answering the call, Chen Zhenglong’s familiar voice came through the phone.
Shao Zifeng’s heart skipped a beat, and he thought to himself that wasn’t good, “Hmm… Brother Chen, why haven’t you gone to sleep so late?”
“Just got off work, your sister-in-law made me some late-night snacks. I’m just worried about you, what are you doing right now?” Chen Zhenglong lowered his voice as if afraid of being overheard by He Juan.
Hearing this, Shao Zifeng breathed a sigh of relief, it appeared Brother Chen didn’t call to scold him.
His gaze swept over the devastated parking lot, and he tried to sound casual, “Ah, the competition is coming up, just seizing the time to train a bit, hehe.”
“I see. Wear more if you’re outside, don’t catch a cold. When are you coming back?”
“I’ll return in a while, I’ll be back soon.” Shao Zifeng’s heart grew even more relaxed, completely oblivious to the unusual tone in Chen Zhenglong’s voice.
“You’re taking that same taxi, right?”
“Yes… I guess!”
As soon as the words left his mouth, Shao Zifeng’s relaxed expression froze.
Scratching his head awkwardly and forcing a laugh, he said, “Heh heh… Brother Chen, you know about that, huh.”
“Nonsense! The Yundu City Abnormal Administration Bureau has been calling me.” Chen Zhenglong’s voice suddenly got stern.
“You little rascal, getting quite skilled there, holding a taxi driver hostage with a knife.”
“What’s more, you also caused a ruckus in the western suburbs, right? Made a whole mess and sent the police dispatch girls into tears three times.”
“Ah! Say something, will you? With all your capacity why don’t you just fly to the sky!”
Shao Zifeng held the phone away from his ear, muttering with a pout, “If you had been a little later, maybe I would have already been up there…”

Chen Zhenglong seemed to choke on his words, and after a moment, he couldn’t help but roar, “Say that again!!”
While Shao Zifeng was being scolded, Qiuqiu looked at the Sword Hidden in the ground, its eyes sparkling.
That something about holding a blade to threaten someone.
Sounds kind of fun, doesn’t it?
Seizing the moment when Shao Zifeng wasn’t paying attention, Qiuqiu stealthily coiled its tail around the Sword Hidden and pulled it over.
Only then did it realize that even the Sword Hidden had been belittled and shrunk; Qiuqiu huffed and puffed, lashing out with its tail onto the Ice Crystal Bird, finally feeling a sense of relief.
The bare Ice Crystal Bird looked up at the night sky, forlorn, with silent tears streaming from the corner of its eyes.
It reached out a claw and touched the hilt of the sword.
Hiss~
Qiuqiu’s eyes lit up.
That familiar tingling sensation coursed through its body like electricity, so pleasurable that its scales stood on end, and its slender body seemed to gain a layer of girth.
Better not to try it now; savor the bliss first, then decide.
With that thought, Qiuqiu tucked the Sword Hidden under its body, body rhythmically quivering, contentedly squinting its eyes.
