Everyone saw that the savagely vicious Fierce Beast Qiongqi had not only revealed his original cub form, but somehow still had enough strength left to assume human form.
That truly caught them by surprise.
The tiny infant kept his eyes tightly shut, sunk in a deep sleep.
He did not move at all. Although he was stark naked, without a scrap of clothing to cover him, he showed no reaction whatsoever.
He neither cried nor fussed, doing nothing but sleeping soundly.
As expected of the human form Qiongqi had assumed, this child truly was unlike any other.
That thought flashed through the minds of everyone nearby.
But now, what were they supposed to do with this infant-like being?
Of course, Qiongqi had only been injured to this extent through the combined efforts of the Rootless Wood and the Bone Jade Signet Ring. But who could guarantee what kind of calamity he would unleash once he recovered his powers someday?
The safest course, therefore, was to take Qiongqi's life right now.
As the saying went, strike while your enemy was sick and take his life.
Just as everyone was hesitating, Mu Feng spoke.
"Actually, there's no need for you to agonize over this."
Yang Qing and the others all turned their eyes toward Mu Feng. Unbothered, he continued speaking.
"You've actually misunderstood Qiongqi's current condition."
Mu Feng looked at Yang Qing and paused. "He transformed from his true Fierce Beast form into a human body not because he remained powerful. Quite the opposite. This transformation proves that his strength suffered a devastating blow earlier, causing him to return to his original source."
Return to the true origin?
Everyone's heart jolted at Mu Feng's words. "You mean Qiongqi wasn't originally a beast at all? On the contrary, he was a human?"
