The look on his face was of utter pleasure. He didn't seem to mind that he had casually robbed someone of their life!
"You're really turning me off." Heifeng stood in the darkness and said frankly. "I feel like throwing up every time I see you like this."
He snorted. Then, his eyes lit up.
"When are you going to regain your full strength, lunatic?”
The man whom he had called a lunatic merely smiled. He didn't mind the title. They had started calling him that a long time ago. In fact, many people had forgotten his real name.
"Don't get so worked up. I've just woken up. I should take the moment to savor what blood tastes like now," said the lunatic. "Humans might taste different now."
“I didn't wake you up so that you can go on a blood-crazed drinking spree," said Heifeng. "We have to seize the time we have and locate the Longevity Pond. Everyone dies if we don't find it!"
He didn't start his search with the lunatic because he wanted to give the man the luxury of time. He needed him to do a job.
The Longevity Pond meant a lot to all of them. Be it he or Mr Lang, or those still deep in slumber and not yet awakened, they had all been waiting for this the whole time.
"Why are you in such a rush?" the lunatic smiled coldly. "I've been asleep for a very long time. Can't I have a moment to myself?"
He stared at Heifeng openly.
"We do have to find the Longevity Pond. But you'll still have to look for it even if I don't. Isn't that true?"
"You!" Heifeng was furious. "What are you trying to say?"
"Nothing. I just want to take a break. You can look for the Longevity Pond in the
meantime. Simply let me know where it is when you find it.”
Heifeng was livid. A terrifying aura erupted from his person instantly.
"What did you just say?"
"I'm going to rest now," the lunatic repeated himself. "Don't disturb my rest."
Heifeng's silence did nothing to conceal the rage burning in his eyes.
