All the sect's resources had been prioritized for its use, in the hope that it would grow as quickly as possible and become the Beast Spirit Sect's strongest future trump card.
Yet before it had much time to grow, the Beast Spirit Sect was struck by disaster.
Large numbers of the sect's top experts and high-level spirit beasts were slaughtered or forcibly taken away by the powerful figures from the Mystic Sanctuary. Vast quantities of cultivation resources were also carted away by those departing experts.
After losing its supply of resources, the pace of its growth was abruptly restricted.
Later came the story of Qin Yan breaching the Beast Spirit Sect and capturing it.
"This Blood-Devouring Mosquito truly is a vicious insect. The Beast Spirit Sect treated it so generously, revered it as their Little Ancestor, and used the sect's entire foundation to nurture it. Yet in return, it slaughtered the sect's spirit beasts, elders, and disciples without restraint."
Qin Yan gained an even deeper understanding of the Blood-Devouring Mosquito's brutal nature.
Creatures born ferocious, with bloodthirsty instincts etched into their very bloodlines, had no concept of gratitude or loyalty.
In its eyes, all things could serve as food. Kindness was nothing more than a ridiculous one-sided joke.
He looked at the Blood-Devouring Mosquito and said evenly, "All right. Go back and rest. You may devour the blood qi in the Blood Nest as you please to increase your strength."
At his words, the Blood-Devouring Mosquito's scarlet compound eyes froze slightly.
This human... was actually treating it so well?
It had assumed that, after being captured alive, it would face endless enslavement and torment.
But this human before it was actually allowing it to devour blood qi of his own accord, without imposing any restrictions?
The Blood-Devouring Mosquito obediently nodded.
