Feixiao didn't care at all about how Buliren addressed him. Those wolves, whose savagery was etched into their bones, showed no fear even when facing a general. They still regarded Feixiao as a slave they could manipulate at will, and this would never change until their deaths.
"It seems that your blood contains not only the cruelty of wolves but also the cunning of foxes. In the end, this is a gift from the Buli people, and since we gave it to you, we certainly have the right to take it back!"
Hu Lei let out a furious roar and pounced on Fei Xiao. Facing the full force of this former leader of the battle, Fei Xiao had only one feeling: it was too weak, so weak that she even doubted whether the giant wolf in front of her was Hu Lei.
Liu Ying had already quickly returned to the courtyard. Since Hu Lei had been taken away by her, command had temporarily fallen into Mo Du's hands. The first thing Mo Du did after regaining consciousness was to tear Qiong apart. Qiong, on the other hand, found Jiao Qiu in the house, protected him behind her, and used her lance to unleash her protective power, showing her heartfelt gratitude for the protection.
"Mr. Qiong, quickly use your invincible pioneering power to think of a solution! If this continues, we'll be devoured by wolves!"
With a look of panic, Jiaoqiu used his fan to cast fireballs. He wasn't afraid of death, but he didn't want to die either. Seeing countless hungry wolves rushing over and gnawing at the blessing he was protecting, he felt that he was not far from death. He hadn't cured Feixiao's illness yet, how could he die at this time?
"The power of pioneering is not something so useful; it's not as useful as my words."
Qiong gestured to Jiaoqiu with his eyes that he shouldn't worry, and then started using his words.
"Hey! Modu! You stinking outsider, you're getting angry just because I said a few words to you? If you've got the guts, let's have a go. Send your men over here, and I'll take them all down with one punch each."
Qiong shouted arrogantly at Modu in his werewolf form. Modu had actually wanted to send his men out to attack the people around him and create panic several times, but every time he tried to do so, Qiong would forcefully hold him in place.
Qiong started by greeting Mo Du's parents and then moved on to his great-grandmother. Mo Du himself didn't even know who his great-grandmother was, but Qiong insisted that he and Mo Du's great-grandmother had a secret relationship, implying that Mo Du was his beloved grandson.
"How exactly did you manage to say the most arrogant things with the most cowardly abilities?"
Looking at the increasingly frantic Mo Du, Jiao Qiu smiled bitterly and said to Qiong, "Compared to Qiong's ability to stir up emotions, I, as a strategist, am far inferior. The good thing is that none of Bu Li's people have left, but the bad thing is that they may die."
Just when Qiong was about to give up, a roar came from the sky. Flames accompanied the mecha landing. The mecha's long legs swung and kicked several Bu Liren away. It took only one punch for each of the remaining ones. When Mo Du resisted, it grabbed him by the neck with its palm and lifted him up as easily as catching a puppy.
"See, I told you I'd take them all down with one punch."
Qiong wiped the sweat from his face and said that with Liu Ying's arrival, they would be saved. Although there were many unexpected events, he still managed to save Jiao Qiu, who was in relatively good health except for some minor injuries.
"I will ignite the sea of stars!"
Liu Ying shouted, and the smile on Qiong's face gradually froze, because a green flame had already erupted in front of him, and its power was much more terrifying than the fierce attacks of the Bu Li people before.
After the Star Sea was ignited, the once spacious courtyard and houses were reduced to ruins. Hu Lei's loyal Bu Li people were burned to ashes before they could even scream. After removing her Samo armor, Liu Ying slowly landed on the scorched earth emitting white smoke. She seemed to have thought of something and quickly ran to Qiong's side. At this time, most of Qiong's body was buried in the soil, with only her arms still outside.
Chapter 319 Eat Something Good
Liu Ying pulled Qiong out of the ground and wiped the dust off his face with her palm. Fortunately, he was not injured under Cun Hu's protection, otherwise Liu Ying would have been heartbroken.
"A-Qiong, are you alright?"
"Murder your husband!"
Qiong shouted with a look of relief. He hadn't died at Bu Liren's hands, but he almost died at the hands of his own wife. He never expected this.
"Pfft, I'm sorry, Yue/Yi-Yiqi Yi Shiba, I thought all the Buli people were as strong as that giant wolf, but they seem to be very weak... Which side is the Buli person?"
Liu Ying couldn't help but laugh, but seeing that Qiong was still in the mood to joke, she felt relieved. She admitted that she had gone a bit too far, since those wolves were threatening Qiong's safety.
"Where is Hu Lei?"
Qiong patted the dirt off her body and pulled Jiaoqiu out of the soil. Apart from some burns, Jiaoqiu was fine. After all, people's physical constitutions cannot be compared. Qiong is a Star Core Spirit, while Jiaoqiu is just an ordinary fox-person.
"General Feixiao is dealing with it."
After Liu Ying explained, Qiong carried Jiao Qiu out of the pit. He looked around at the messy streets and knew that the Cloud Cavalry would arrive soon if they weren't blind.
"You spendthrift wife, look what you've done to your husband's assets! These are all heavy credit points."
Qiong said with great distress that his property, which he had only bought not long ago, had been ruined by Liu Ying. Fortunately, he had asked Bu Liren for rent before it turned into ruins, which was some compensation.
"I'm sorry, I'll make it up to you with my salary."
Liu Ying knew that Qiong wasn't angry and was just joking with her, so she hugged Qiong's arm tightly and said coquettishly.
"Who cares about your salary? I only care about you. Give me back all the money you've ever spent in your life."
"Yes, I'm willing."
Liu Ying knew that Qiong was digging a hole for herself, but she was willing to jump into it. What was troubling her now was not whether a lifetime was enough, but that she couldn't be by Qiong's side every day, since the Star Core Hunters would be going on a mission soon.
Qiong handed the unconscious Jiaoqiu over to the Yunqi Army who came to protect her. Of course, he was still worried about Feixiao. The Jingfeng ship was right above them, so Qiong picked up Liuying and flew with her to the location of the Jingfeng ship.
By the time Qiong and Liuying arrived on the Jingfeng Ship, the battle was nearing its end. Feixiao's strength far surpassed Hulei's; even Hulei in his prime was no match for her, let alone the old wolf who had been tormented for seven hundred years.
“Hehehe, hahahaha!”
Hu Lei, who was kneeling on the ground, suddenly burst into laughter. Qiong was very familiar with this scene. Usually, the enemy would start talking nonsense at this time. He wanted to stop him, but Hu Lei couldn't be killed, and he didn't have any glue, so he could only stare helplessly.
"what's so funny."
Feixiao looked at Hulei and said that she did not have the joy and pride that a victor should have. For her, defeating Hulei was not something to celebrate. Unless she could kill him, that was all.
"You know the tradition of the Buli people, where the battle between alpha wolves is to kill each other in battle and take out their hearts as the trophy of the victor."
Hu Lei placed his wolf paw on Fei Xiao's chest and said that he was looking forward to Fei Xiao doing such a thing, but Fei Xiao was destined to be disappointed.
"I am not a wolf, and I have absolutely no interest in your heart."
"You and I are both monsters born to fight and destined to die in battle, so I have chosen a path for you that you would never have imagined."
As Hu Lei spoke, his claws tore open his steel-like skin, snapping his bones in the process. He pulled out a huge sphere from his chest cavity. This sphere was red, and when held in his hand, it resembled a crimson moon. Moreover, it was an unstable bomb filled with energy.
"Come on, Feixiao, what will you do now? Will you watch all the fox people go mad with fear and thirst for killing, or will you exchange your life for those fox people?"
Hu Lei's body gradually dissipated in the light of the crimson moon. This was the secret of his immortality. The origin of this crimson moon was related to the Abundant Star God. It was a product of the ancestors of the Bu Li people refining the blood of countless Bu Li people and fox people. From then on, every generation of Bu Li people would replace their heart with the crimson moon in battle. This was also the reason why they were so powerful and immortal.
Feixiao's bloodline contains memories of Chiyue, and she instantly understands what Hulei wants to force her to do. If left unchecked, all the fox people in Luofu will turn into monsters who only know how to kill. To prevent this from happening, the only option is to find a vessel for Chiyue. And who is the most suitable vessel now? The answer is obvious: only the battle-hardened General Tianji, who has trained his physical body to the extreme, can do it.
"Brother-in-law, I'm leaving the rest to you."
Feixiao gave Qiong a confident smile, and all of Feihuang's power surged forth, transforming into a giant beast that was half wolf and half fox beside her. This was Feixiao's source of power and her trump card as the Heavenly Strike General.
"Dafei, what are you doing? What is that thing?"
Qiong was not Bu Liren, so of course he didn't know what the Crimson Moon was for. In his opinion, it was similar to a bomb. As long as he used reasonable means to create the Immortal Ship, or seal it into his own Rift Space, it would be fine.
Feixiao shook her head, not having time to explain further. She and the giant beast beside her flew towards the crimson moon in the sky. The giant beast opened its huge mouth and swallowed the crimson moon whole. The crimson moon, which had dyed the sky blood-red, disappeared instantly, and the sky returned to blue. Only Feixiao turned into a shooting star and fell heavily onto the deck of the Jingfeng ship.
"Da Fei!"
Qiong ran over and picked Feixiao up from the ground. He was about to ask her if she was alright when he saw that her blue eyes were stained with bright red. He had seen this before; it was when Yue Kuang had an attack.
Sam suddenly appeared beside Qiong, her large hand grabbing Feixiao's arm. Any later and her claws might have torn Qiong's chest apart. At this moment, Feixiao was completely ruthless, seeing everything as her enemy.
"Why are you here again?"
Qiong watched as Sam grabbed Feixiao's arm and slammed her away. Then the two figures collided again. This time, it was Sam fighting against the berserk Feixiao. It was indeed an unexpected result for Qiong. In the end, the strongest enemy turned out to be one of their own.
"How can someone this old still eat random things!"
Qiong made a sarcastic remark, and seeing Sam being suppressed by the berserk Feixiao, he immediately rushed over to help. Before rushing over, Qiong used his lance to cast two layers of protection blessing on himself. Now he had to think of a way to get himself into Feixiao's mouth, which was the fastest and most effective method.

Chapter 320 Who did this?
At this moment, Feixiao had already been drawn into the inner world constructed by Chiyue. Although Hulei's physical body had perished, his consciousness still existed within Chiyue. He used a scheme to force Feixiao to swallow Chiyue, naturally in order to seize control of her body.
"I admit I underestimated you. You used a scheme to lure me to you after you were provoked by Qiong?"
Feixiao frowned as she looked at Hulei in front of her, but she was in no hurry to fight him. She had been thinking about Hulei's scheme. She originally thought he wanted to drag her down with him, but she didn't expect him to send her such a great gift.
“That’s right. You are the only person in the Immortal Ship who can carry the Crimson Moon. The people of the Immortal Ship have planted the seeds of justice and protection for the weak in your heart, so you will definitely do this.”
Hu Lei grinned. This trick only worked on Bu Li people like Fei Xiao. Other Bu Li people were selfish. Even if their own parents were held hostage, they wouldn't be moved in the slightest. Only a tamed wolf like Fei Xiao would risk his life for strangers. This was Hu Lei's complete understanding of Fei Xiao, which was quite profound.
"There is someone else who can do it, but unfortunately she seems to have gotten lost and wandered into another grotto-heaven."
Feixiao did not agree with Hulei's words. The Crimson Moon was indeed difficult to deal with, but she was certain that Huangquan could destroy it. As long as it sank into the Black Sea, everything would turn into nothingness, even the previous Hulei.
“Since ancient times, those who possess the Crimson Moon within their bodies have been the War Leaders, and now you have become the new War Leader. This is the path I have paved for you.”
Hu Lei ignored Fei Xiao's argument and simply explained her current identity. She had completed the ritual, defeated the old leader, and swallowed the Crimson Moon. Without a doubt, she was now the leader of the Bu Li people.
"You want me to go back to the tribe? I'd rather die."
Fei Xiao sneered and said that she did not yet know the effect of Chi Yue on her. If it would turn her into a wolf without humanity, she would commit suicide immediately. Hu Lei understood this as well.
“I have never doubted the loyalty of a general of the Immortal Boat. Your introverted nature still leaves a flaw, otherwise I would not have appeared in front of you.”
As Hu Lei spoke, he looked towards Fei Xiao's side. There was no sign of Fei Xiao's vulnerable side. Even someone as arrogant and confident as Fei Xiao couldn't guarantee that he wasn't vulnerable inside. (The last line appears to be unrelated and possibly a fragment from another text.)
"When you discovered that you possessed the bloodline of the Buli people, you were terrified. You were afraid that you would go berserk on the battlefield and attack your comrades. You were afraid that someone would mistake you for a Buli spy. You were afraid that you would lose your current status because you were a wolf who had escaped to the Immortal Ship. Your clan was not there. You were out of place with them. They were only respectful to you because they needed your fighting strength. You knew all of this."
Like a shaman in a tribe, Hu Lei used words to bewitch Fei Xiao, trying to make her heart break and accept what he said, so that she could be influenced by the Crimson Moon.
Fei Xiao glanced at Hu Lei, but his eyes did not hold the color he wanted to see; they remained full of confidence and determination.
“You’re wrong, Hu Lei. If you had said these words before, I might have wavered, but now I have my own home. My home is there. Every night when all the lights in the world are on, there will always be one light left on for me. They will be waiting for me at home. Whether I am a general or not, whether I am a Bu Liren or not, I am family in their eyes.”
"So no matter how much you deny me, I will never become the leader of the Bu Li people. I am Fei Xiao, the Heavenly Strike General of the Immortal Ship, the younger sister of Sister Yu Kong, and Qiong's wife."
"I will repeat this oath once more: may my vow be as vast as the clouds that obscure the sky, protecting the immortal boat. I will fulfill this vow...until the last day of my life."
Feixiao's voice grew louder and louder, causing the entire space to tremble. Just as she finished speaking, a shooting star streaked across the sky. She had seen this shooting star many times before; it was beautiful and magnificent, but each time it fell, a world was reduced to ruins.
That was the might of the Emperor's Bow. How could the mere inner world withstand the gaze of the Star God? Fei Xiao raised her hand to try to catch that shooting star. She was prepared to die. Even if she were to be destroyed here with Chi Yue, she would have no complaints. However, the thought that Qiong would be sad for her was the only thing that made her waver.
Light gathered in Fei Xiao's eyes, and the image of a star god gradually materialized. The star god Lan, who was hunting, looked at Fei Xiao and glanced at her. Fei Xiao was a little surprised. She had indeed inherited the power of the previous general. Fei Huang was the blessing given by the pilgrimage. But this time, the star god met her directly. She could even see Lan's full appearance.
boom!
A long-handled weapon landed beside Feixiao, creating a large crater in the ground. She ended her eye contact with Lan and turned to look at the special weapon. Even in her inner world, it was a real weapon. Feixiao finally understood what had happened. It was probably because her will had been recognized by the Star God, so His gaze had given her new power.
Feixiao walked over and picked up the long-handled weapon. It was a double-edged axe, and its weight made Feixiao feel that it was just right. This was a weapon that Lan had tailored for her, so it was naturally the most suitable for her.
Meanwhile, on the Immortal Ship's racing vessel, Sam and Qiong finally managed to suppress Feixiao. Qiong was about to put her arm into Feixiao's mouth, hoping that a bite would restore her strength. But at that moment, an axe flew down from the sky, and the enormous impact forcefully smashed Sam and Qiong apart.
"What's going on? Who threw this weapon at me? And it seems like my wife has entered the second stage?"
Qiong stared in disbelief as the crazed Feixiao grabbed the long handle of the axe and lifted it onto her shoulder. Her aura became even more terrifying. At this moment, she was a complete Hunting Commander and was about to go berserk using the power of the Hunting Commander.
"Who's trying to frame me?!"
Qiong cried out in surprise. Feixiao, wielding an axe, smashed the Sam mech away and charged towards Qiong. Qiong's star core was so frightened that it throbbed wildly. The pressure of life and death made him feel that if he didn't explode something, he would definitely die here.
Bah!
What erupted was not Qiong's inner power, but a rusty iron sword that blocked Qiong's path, taking the fatal blow of the axe. Qiong turned his head in surprise and saw Yun Li struggling to hold onto the iron sword, preventing Fei Xiao from taking another step forward. It has to be said that Yun Li's strength is really great; even the berserk Fei Xiao couldn't withstand it. Qiong really had to give his maid a thumbs up.
Chapter 321 The Rescuer
"What are you spacing out for? Do you want to die?"
Yun Li shouted loudly to Qiong, who quickly reacted, put on a blue hat, held a lance in his left hand and a baseball bat in his right, and threw all sorts of blessings at Yun Li's head. At this moment, Liu Ying was also really enraged and entered a state of complete green combustion. This form was too powerful and she didn't care about the surrounding environment. The next second, the green wings on her back could cleave the entire Jingfeng Ship.
"How did it turn into a battle of gods?! I need help from the underworld!"
Qiong couldn't understand why things had turned out this way. At this moment, Yun Li had already used her magic to enlarge Lao Tie dozens of times and smashed it towards Fei Xiao's head, seemingly intending to kill her.
"What are you doing?"
The world around me suddenly turned black and white. It happened so suddenly, without even a second's delay, that I was pulled into this void of a vast ocean.
Qiong looked at her savior, a bright red Huang Quan standing beside her. She seemed to have just arrived on the Jingfeng Ship and pulled everyone into the void. Here, Sam's wings went out, Feixiao's movements became sluggish, and Yun Li was unable to move as if she were stuck in a quagmire. Only Qiong was unaffected.
"Darling, you finally came to the rescue! Oh my, I was really scared to death. Thank goodness you were here."
Qiong really wanted to hug Huang Quan and kiss him. Although he was a little late, the arrival of a hero was always reassuring. If he had come earlier, there would have been no need for Hu Lei.
"Why did you two start fighting?" Huang Quan asked, puzzled.
"Don't even mention it, Dafei has gone mad."
"But she seems perfectly normal to me."
Huang Quan was still puzzled. She didn't see any trace of madness in Fei Xiao. Qiong was also puzzled and turned to look at Fei Xiao.
"Dafei, are you alright?"
Qiong saw that Feixiao was very quiet at this time, and there were no more aggressive movements. Most importantly, the red light in his eyes had faded, and he had indeed recovered.
"It's alright, I've already dealt with Hu Lei. I just came out and found myself back here. Is the next opponent Void?"
Fei Xiao looked around and roughly understood what had happened. This was quite a surprise for her. However, she felt that she could do anything now, and she was not afraid even if she was tainted by nothingness.
"It's really hard to say whether this was a timely rescue or a complete mistake."
Qiong felt that Huangquan didn't smell so good anymore. It seemed that Feixiao had returned to normal even without her coming. She really came at the very last moment, probably to steal the MVP.
Seeing that there were no enemies around, Huang Quan withdrew her Void Domain, and everyone returned to the Competition Ship. Everything that had just happened seemed like an illusion.
Everyone else was fine, but Fei Xiao was using her axe to support herself on the ground, looking exhausted and about to collapse. Qiong quickly went over, hugged her waist, and helped her up.
"Da Fei!"
