Otherworldly Desert Dust

Chapter 30 - 27: Left Father, Right Righteousness

"Little Yu, it was big brother’s fault for speaking too loudly before. Don’t take it to heart, put the bow down, put the bow down," Wu Hen hurriedly said.

Yu Yu put down the pink heavy bow and arrow, but the next second she seemed like a completely different person. Tearfully and fearfully, she threw herself into Wu Hen’s arms, looking nothing like the elf girl from a moment ago.

Wu Hen looked at the little head buried in his chest and was at a loss for words.

Shooting through someone’s eye worm was such a violent act, yet it had nothing to do with gentle Yu Yu, right? That wasn’t the sweet little sis?

After comforting her for a while, Yu Yu finally calmed down.

Wu Hen walked towards the deceased eye pattern man and saw the two white pupil worms protruding from the back of his head.

At that moment, a strong sensation came from Wu Hen’s right hand, as if it had grown a mouth and was craving this high-protein treat.

"You must be really hungry, huh? So disgusting and yet..." Wu Hen was feeling helpless.

He reluctantly extended his palm, and immediately a phantom emerged, like a ravenous little Witch Dragon, it opened its mouth and swallowed the two pupil worms in one gulp.

Wu Hen was quite familiar with this scene. Back at the Juezhen cliff, it disguised itself as a bolt of lightning and took a bite out of his Yuan You. If it hadn’t for that, Little Yi would still be wandering in the sky, starving!

"Talking about that, didn’t you also eat Zai Wu? Such a powerful being must be a great supplement to you. Why still care about these small fry?" Wu Hen was puzzled.

To make Wu Hen understand more clearly, Little Yi suddenly split into two different energy streams—one black void and one blue-white—the same black and white lightning state that had once divided the Juezhen.

The black void swiftly moved past Wu Hen, swimming freely until it reached his left arm.

When Wu Hen looked at his left arm, he saw a rather divine sword mark—the Holy Father Black Divine Death Sword!

Meanwhile, in Wu Hen’s right hand, another substance appeared, resembling white lightning Bai Ze. Sometimes it took the form of an elemental weapon pistol, and other times it became the compound bow from earlier...

Due to swallowing the two white pupil worms, Wu Hen noticed that the substance in his right hand started to show fungal filament-like material, making his entire arm seem mutated, covered in a layer of white frost from the inside out!

Wu Hen couldn’t help but marvel at the sight.

"Are you twins?" Wu Hen immediately communicated with the symbiotic miracle within him.

He looked at the Black Divine Death Sword in his left hand and said, "Is this the Holy Father?"

Then he looked at the lively, shapeshifting substance on his right, "And this is Little Yi?"

Suddenly, the energies in both his hands rapidly surged into Wu Hen’s chest, merging together and forming a yin-yang exchange shape. Black void and Bai Ze as if they were inherently one, inseparable!

"I think I understand now. You are divided into yin and yang. Yin is ever-changing, consuming what it morphs into; yang is the domineering spirit of the unchanging Death Sword!"

In fact, he now controlled two types of power. One was basic skills, where the right hand could absorb specific materials and transform them into corresponding weapons.

The other was the ultimate body secret, mostly in a state of dormancy and recuperation, not responsible for hunting or wandering, but showing holiness and vanquishing when beings like Zai Wu appeared.

"Alright, from now on, the Holy Father will rest in the left hand, and Little Yi, you’ll stay in the right hand, so your master doesn’t get confused and just attack every Desert Dust Heavenly Pride with his right hand!" Wu Hen said.

Little Yi didn’t seem to mind and attached his Black Divine Yang Body to Wu Hen’s left hand.

Seeing the Holy Father Death Sword in his left hand, Wu Hen felt immensely secure; he had thought he was completely cut off from the Holy Father.

Having it inside him was reassuring.Nôv(el)B\\jnn

"How much nutrition can these little protein balls provide you with?" Wu Hen asked Little Yi.

"It seems clear that there’s a group of people responsible for destroying all the medicines in the city... If I were an alien, eagerly destroying all the medicines of a city, there would be only one purpose, to spread a virus throughout the city!" Yu Yu analyzed.

"That’s the same conclusion I reached." Wu Hen nodded.

Yu Yu felt a bit let down, hoping for some praise from her brother.

"The question is, why would they do that? If they make everyone in the city sick, what do they gain from it? Don’t they also want to stay alive?" Wu Hen still couldn’t figure that out.

Even mutants would have to live in human habitats.

"Unless they come from Desert Dust," Yu Yu immediately said.

"That’s what I was thinking too," Wu Hen nodded again, agreeing with his sister’s analysis. "How did they infiltrate? Nuwa God End couldn’t be just open, without any firewalls, right?"

The Holy Father’s dormancy was real.

Nuwa God End cutting off Wu Hen’s connection to the Black Divine Death Sword was also real.

Could the Desert Dust creatures really descend upon this human habitat?

Or was the divide between this world and reality getting increasingly blurred?

...

Back at the Tropical Pavilion, in their private chamber.

Yu Yu immediately began searching for medicines to treat their father Wu Yingting’s wounds.

Their mother Yu Yi had already prepared food, allowing Wu Hen to feast heartily.

During the meal, Little Yi also enjoyed it, feeling that this way it could slightly replenish its needed energy. What was this principle? It might just be the joy of devouring meals.

Though the space was small, being together with family made Wu Hen very content.

Wu Yingting didn’t know much about the Desert Dust, but he knew that most Spirit Awakeners among humanity were drafted, and the authorities were also actively seeking out wild Spirit Awakeners.

"Take the school, for example; with order maintenance personnel around, among thousands of students, there will definitely be a few Spirit Awakeners. They will be taken, while the remaining people, including those who are unconscious, might be left to fend for themselves." Wu Yingting said.

Wu Hen nodded, understanding that the authorities were likely seeking those useful to Nuwa God End. If the Divine Realm couldn’t be defended, everyone would be doomed!

"I also heard the spiritual sense is like a little elf. They are invisible but tend to transfer to people with strong adaptability and response capabilities in harsh environments. So to become a Spirit Awakener or to get stronger, you need to frequently clash and fight with those Desert Dust creatures." Wu Yingting said.

"Achoo~" At that moment, Yu Yu sneezed.

Wu Hen’s gaze involuntarily fell on Yu Yu, noticing her nose was quite red.

When he had killed the eye pattern man, apart from his fungal filament ability, he seemed to possess a highly developed sense of smell...

He remembered back then, after killing the "handsome and graceful," he gained their hearing, which matched Wu Yingting’s and his own theory that "spiritual senses choose strong hosts."

Now, his sister Yu Yu, being a mute, was naturally sensitive to smells. After enduring such a battle, she was now frequently showing signs of nasal discomfort...

"Little Yu, focus. Can you smell which bag I packed my underwear in? When we escaped home, it was so rushed I forgot where I put my close-fitting clothes?" Wu Hen raised an eyebrow and tested Yu Yu.

Sure enough, Yu Yu transformed back into the young female Fire Shadow!

Whether she had awakened a spiritual sense or not was unclear, but she was about to complete an Earth Explosive Celestial Star.
