Amidst the ice and burning.
Little Yi Hao could no longer hold on, desperately trying to stop the bloodline expansion.
He began to roar and tear at his clothes, scratching his skin with sharp objects.
The expansion of his bloodline caused him immense pain.
This pain spread from his body to his head and eyes.
He descended into madness once more.
He picked up a stone, attempting to smash his own head.
The stone was as large as half his head; if it struck his head, his brains would surely splatter, leading to certain death.
This person was Gu Qianying's child.
Even with Gu Qianying's usually calm demeanor, seeing Little Yi Hao in such a state, her heart ached, wishing she could suffer such punishment in his stead.
"No!" she cried out, rushing forward and snatching the stone from Little Yi Hao's hand.
Little Yi Hao was not controlled.
It was merely the pain within him that made him confused and panicked.
He was simply trying desperately to control it!
But alas, fate was always cruel; the more Little Yi Hao tried to control himself, the more the violent power within him grew.
"Ahhhh!"
Gu Qianying managed to snatch the stone away, turned around, and found Little Yi Hao already slamming his body against the wall.
She scrambled up again, grabbing Little Yi Hao by the thigh.
"Are you crazy? No, Mother is here with you. Do you trust me? Don't hurt yourself, okay?"
Du Chun and the others also stepped forward.
They held Little Yi Hao's hands and feet.
Gu Qianying roared at Duan Xifeng, "Where is the blood I left for you? Hurry and bring it out."
But Duan Xifeng searched for a long time and found nothing.
He irritably pulled at his hair and smashed his fist onto the ground, "When I was fighting those things just now, I accidentally dropped the bottle on the ground, and they were all ruined."
Gu Qianying held the frenzied Little Yi Hao, her gaze vacant, unsure of what to think.
Should she ask Bai Yufeng to come and deliver blood?
But Bai Yufeng's body currently relied on others' spiritual energy to maintain itself.
Moreover, he had already exhausted all his spiritual energy to save the three of them. Gu Qianying didn't know how she could ever repay him for all this.
Bai Yufeng was not unaware of this person's condition, nor was he ignorant of the efficacy of his blood.
Otherwise, Gu Qianying would not have been chasing after him all these days, enduring his bullying without a single complaint, accepting her fate and staying by his side.
He disregarded the loss of spiritual energy within him.
He quickly picked up the blade he always kept at his waist and cut his own wrist.
He strode forward, extending his hand, his face slightly pale, his voice weak, "Let him drink my blood! Although my spiritual energy is gone, my bloodline comes from the Saint Feather family, this thing is still useful!"
Bai Yufeng's wrist was bleeding profusely, a gruesome sight.
Gu Qianying gasped, frantically pulling Little Yi Hao away and rushing to Bai Yufeng's side, "What are you doing? Your spiritual energy is already weak, why didn't you wait for us to infuse you with spiritual energy before acting? Do you really want to die!"
Bai Yufeng's eyes were hollow, his fingers trembling.
Anyone could see that he was enduring immense pain. He gritted his teeth and gasped, "Stop the nonsense, hurry and let him drink it."
Gu Qianying cast a grateful glance at Bai Yufeng, then offered a single word of thanks.
"I will repay you in the future!"
Blood congealed from Bai Yufeng's body. Gu Qianying transformed it into blood beads and quickly placed them into Little Yi Hao's gaping mouth.
The bloodline of the Saint Feather family was exceptionally powerful, passed down from ancient times, carrying a faint golden hue.
This blood merged with the demonic aura within Little Yi Hao, quickly bringing forth a surge of immense power.
Du Chun and the others, who had been restraining Little Yi Hao,
were violently thrown aside by the power emanating from him.
Several figures fell backward.
Their faces scarred, they quickly retreated.
The power within Little Yi Hao was now several times stronger than before.
But this power was different from the arrogance of before.
This power was accompanied by a gentle radiance, rapidly converging inward. Instead of harming, it enveloped Little Yi Hao, forming a protective shield that began to purify him.
Outside this shield, wisps of demonic aura seeped out.
Then, Little Yi Hao within felt another wave of intense pain.
That gentle power began to exert its force, continuously expelling the impurities from his bloodline.
Gu Qianying stood rigidly in place, doing her best not to rush forward.
Tears welled in her eyes as she covered her mouth.
"I'm sorry, it's all my fault that you have to endure this."
After all, Little Yi Hao was just a child of about ten years old. Children of ordinary families at this age would be collecting bird eggs or climbing trees, full of innocence and joy.
But Little Yi Hao was different.
The burdens he carried and the responsibilities he had to bear far exceeded those of others.
Gu Qianying's shoulders trembled.
Bai Yufeng placed his arm on her shoulder, gently comforting her, "Don't worry, the Saint Feather family's bloodline possesses inherent purification power. Those impurities have been in his body for a long time; expelling them will undoubtedly cause him some pain."
"But after hardship comes sweetness! He will be well soon."
Gu Qianying heard this and could only shake her head in pain.
Then, she suddenly exclaimed and quickly grabbed Bai Yufeng's hand, "I almost forgot, your hand is injured. Let me bandage it for you!"
A flicker of joy crossed Bai Yufeng's eyes. This time, he didn't act coy and extended his hand, "You only realize this now? And you called yourself my savior earlier."
Gu Qianying clicked her tongue, feeling extremely apologetic.
"I am truly sorry."
After a quarter of an hour, Little Yi Hao finally returned to normal.
His small form, suspended in mid-air, had its strength drained. As he fell, he resembled a withered branch, as frail as an eighty-year-old reed.
Gu Qianying held the little one in her arms, her worry undeniable. She touched Little Yi Hao's sweat-drenched forehead, "It will be over soon, it will be over soon."
Little Yi Hao managed a pale smile, his understanding making her heart ache even more, "I know, Mother."
After saying this, Little Yi Hao's power was depleted, and he instantly fell unconscious.
Gu Qianying checked his pulse, and only after ensuring he was alright did she relax.
Another hour passed.
After the infusion of spiritual energy from everyone, Little Yi Hao finally awoke from his slumber.
He did not, as usual, cry out that he was hungry to Gu Qianying, nor did he show any signs of pain, complaining about how much it hurt.
Instead, he uttered a shocking word.
The first thing he did upon waking was to call out "Daddy" to the expressionless Bai Yufeng.
