Hu Qi didn't leave immediately.
His gaze fell upon the woman's corpse.
No, to be more precise, it fell upon her slightly bulging abdomen.
As a Secret Martial Artist at Qi Blood Realm Perfection who also practiced the White Whale Posture, his senses had reached a terrifyingly acute level.
He could clearly perceive the active, throbbing life within her belly, a life that seemed unaffected by the death of its Black Blood Species mother.
'What astonishing Life Force. A pity, really.'
His expression was cold as he swung his long saber.
SQUELCH!
Blackish-red blood sprayed out, reeking of a foul stench.
A palm-sized monster, still connected to an umbilical cord, fell out.
The monster was pitch-black all over.
It had sharp teeth at the corners of its mouth and sharp nails on its fingers.
Its entire body was covered in black fur.
Now, having been cut free by the blade,
it opened its crimson eyes and let out a few ear-piercing shrieks at Hu Qi.
