Chapter 766: Backlash!

Chapter 766: Chapter 766: Backlash!

"What should I do?"

Catherine was extremely anxious, thinking of a solution.

At this moment, Xiao Zheng only felt waves of pain surging like a tide. The pain was as if millions of ants were biting him, simply unbearable.

He clenched his teeth tightly, his eyes turned blood-red, trying to resist the pain, but he couldn’t at all. The backlash of the inherited power was too terrifying, beyond his ability to withstand.

"This is bad."

Seeing Xiao Zheng like this, Catherine was immediately startled. This was the second stage of the inherited power backlash, and he was about to fall into an unconscious state.

Seeing Xiao Zheng clenching his teeth, Catherine was extremely worried. If he lost consciousness next, he might accidentally bite his own tongue, just like an epileptic seizure.

In desperation, Catherine didn’t think of a good method; she simply stuffed her arm into Xiao Zheng’s mouth.

This way, he wouldn’t bite his tongue.

Hum...

A rush of Gang Qi surged out of Catherine’s body, swirling around her snow-white arm, enhancing its defensive power.

If she hadn’t done this, Xiao Zheng’s immense strength might have instantly broken Catherine’s arm!

"Ah!"

Even using Gang Qi to defend, Catherine couldn’t help but cry out in pain as her arm was bitten through, blood flowing out.

Yet Catherine endured it, not letting go at all.

At the same time, she tried to use her other hand to continuously wipe the cold sweat from Xiao Zheng’s forehead and massage him a bit.

This action had a minimal effect on alleviating Xiao Zheng’s pain, but Catherine still persisted.

By now, Xiao Zheng had completely fallen into an unconscious state, his eyes blood-red, his body’s muscles tightly clenched, constantly struggling on the bed.

The tide-like pain completely overwhelmed him.

For a normal person under these circumstances, they might not last a moment and could die instantly due to the extreme pain.

Xiao Zheng was different; even though he was in an unconscious state, a strong will to survive was still at work.

He continued to resist the backlash of the inherited power!

All these actions were subconscious.

However, as this struggle went on inside Xiao Zheng, all of his most primal desires were being stimulated.

Along with the desire to survive, various beast-like instincts burst forth like a volcanic eruption.

This was beneficial as it greatly enhanced Xiao Zheng’s ability to withstand the backlash of the inherited power. But it also made him lose his reason.

Catherine continued to take care of Xiao Zheng by his side, watching him struggle painfully against the backlash of the inherited power inside him, and tears streamed down her face.

However, gradually, Catherine noticed that Xiao Zheng’s furious demeanor was slowly subsiding.

The whole person became much calmer.

"He’s holding on!"

Catherine was instantly overjoyed.

However, she then frowned, noticing something unusual about Xiao Zheng at the moment.

Although the pain of the inherited power’s backlash had gradually passed, Xiao Zheng had become very irritable and restless, as if wanting to vent something.

But he couldn’t find a way to vent.

If this continued, Xiao Zheng might entirely break down.

"Hmm?"

Suddenly, Catherine noticed something unusual beneath Xiao Zheng...

Catherine’s face turned red.

"You take advantage of me, my foe," she then sighed deeply, looking at Xiao Zheng, who was restless at the moment.

Afterward, Catherine gently withdrew her arm from Xiao Zheng’s mouth.

By then, Xiao Zheng had overcome the dangerous backlash from the inheritance power, so Catherine was not worried about him biting his tongue anymore.

The wound was still bleeding. Catherine glanced at it and gave it a quick treatment. Then, biting her lips and with a resolute look in her eyes, she slowly removed her clothes and Xiao Zheng’s as well.

She then carefully straddled him. At that moment, her beautiful face slightly frowned, and she let out a pained groan, though Catherine forcibly endured it.

"Ah!"

A cry like that of a wild beast came from Xiao Zheng’s mouth as he suddenly flipped Catherine beneath him.

Afterward, Catherine felt as if she became a tiny boat on the vast sea, completely at the mercy of the waves.

She tightly gripped the sheets with her hands.

...

The next morning, Xiao Zheng woke up with a headache. He shook his head and only then came fully to his senses, taking in his surroundings.

"What happened yesterday?"

Xiao Zheng felt a splitting headache and his memories from yesterday seemed to have vanished, leaving only vague shadows behind.

It started with intense pain, followed by tremendous pleasure, as if walking from Hell to Heaven.

Yet he could not recall the specifics.

"It seems that I completely lost consciousness in my frenzy. Fortunately, I made it through this time," Xiao Zheng thought with some lingering fear.

It seems I was too optimistic before!

Although finding so many Golden Bones had slightly healed the injury from his inheritance, the threat of death still loomed, and he didn’t know when it might erupt.

"Huh?"

Suddenly, Xiao Zheng noticed a trace of blood on the sheets, looking as beautiful as blooming plum blossoms.

"This is..."

Xiao Zheng’s eyes widened, fearing the worst.

Just then, he smelled the scent of food. Catherine walked in with breakfast.

Xiao Zheng’s gaze darted to Catherine, immediately noticing that her gait was unusual today.

Catherine was also an Innate master, and normally, her walking would never show such irregularities. This confirmed Xiao Zheng’s suspicions even more.

"Cath, last night, I..."

Xiao Zheng felt ashamed and was about to continue when Catherine walked up to him, covered his mouth with her hand, and said tenderly, "You don’t need to say anything, just eat your breakfast."

At that moment, Xiao Zheng noticed the white bandages wrapped around Catherine’s arm.

"Did I cause this too?"

Xiao Zheng vaguely remembered that his mouth seemed to have been biting onto something all night.

Guilt surged in Xiao Zheng’s heart; he opened his mouth, wanting to say something, but didn’t know what to say.

Catherine, however, looked unconcerned, helped Xiao Zheng finish his breakfast, and smiled, "Alright, you rest well here, I need to go deal with some Sky Net matters."

Xiao Zheng felt extremely distressed and in immense pain because the power from the Evil God inheritance had caused him significant harm and had heavy consequences...
