"Ten days! How can it take so long?"

Jiuqi was startled. He hadn't heard from him for ten days, and Jacob must be worried sick.

"It took the host five days to fuse his spiritual power, and five days to stimulate his bloodline, so..."

Damn it, I cursed in my heart, but what had happened had already happened, and I could only hope that nothing bad happened to Yagobu.

Jiuqi quickly hid his soul and urged the Yang Stone to come to Jacob's location.

Jacob has not had a good time these days, not because he has encountered difficulties in life or study, but because he can't let go of Jiuqi.

He had been worried ever since he heard the strange sound from his soul that day. As time passed, a week passed quickly and long, and Jacob, who still had no news of Jiuqi, was so panicked that he couldn't eat or sleep.

But he could do nothing now and could only comfort himself that what Jiu Qi had said at that time was about a week, and now it was only the seventh day that had just ended.

But sometimes you can't just use self-hypnosis to pretend that nothing happened. No matter how much Jacob pretended that nothing happened, his increasingly thin figure still exposed his true reaction under the disguise.

Jacob's parents and twin sisters felt so distressed when they saw his appearance. Their son (younger brother) had been in worse and worse condition these days. Last night he even had a fever. If Sarah hadn't come to check on him out of concern, he might have died of fever by the time they found him this morning.

This was the scene Jiu Qi saw when he arrived at the location. Jacob's little face was red due to the high fever, and there was a white towel on his head that should be used to reduce the fever, and he was still receiving an IV in his hand.

Beside the bed was his mother Sarah, who was also lying on the bed with a haggard look on her face, as if she had just fallen asleep.

Jiuqi came back at about four or five o'clock, just as the sky was getting light. He came to Jacob's side, touched his hot little face with heartache, and quickly input his supernatural power into Jacob's body.

A familiar warmth flowed into his body, and Jacob vaguely thought that no matter how small the injury was, this was how Jiu Qi felt when he was treated.

The warm current circulated in his body for two or three minutes, and the pain and heaviness in his body gradually disappeared. Jacob, whose mind was finally clearer, forced himself to open his heavy eyes.

The person in front of him was different from before. His hair and eye colors had changed, his appearance was more delicate, and the horns on his head emitted a mysterious light. He looked more like a high and mighty exiled immortal than before.

“Are you hurt?”

The first thing Jacob did when he woke up was to grab Jiuqi's hand on his forehead, his eyes full of worry. The child's voice that reached Jiuqi's mind was hoarse and filled with anxiety.

"I'm not injured. I accidentally had a breakthrough this time when I went out. I also reactivated my bloodline during the breakthrough. It takes time to transform the new energy in my body after the activation, so I came back late."

"What's wrong with you? I fed you so many good things, how come you are still sick?"

Seeing Jacob, who had lost a lot of weight, Jiu Qi felt so distressed that his heart seemed to break.

"I'm fine, I'm just worried about you"

But Jacob's understanding did not make Jiuqi feel at ease, but made him feel even more distressed.

Jacob looked at Jiuqi's eyes that had changed color, and felt that the person in front of him attracted his attention more than before. He stretched out his hands and asked for a hug. Jacob looked at Jiuqi with a pitiful and expectant expression.

His look made Jiu Qi feel very soft in her heart. She jumped onto the bed without any hesitation, lay on the other side of the bed and hugged Jacob's small body.

Finally entering the sweet and soft embrace again, Jacob felt relieved and relaxed. His body, which was a little weak due to the pain, could not hold on after he relaxed, and he fell asleep again after a while.

Feeling the tight embrace around his waist, Jiu Qi sighed, patted his back, and used his supernatural powers to comb Jacob's body in the hope that he would feel more comfortable.

The next morning, the Black family who came to visit Jacob saw that Jacob's illness was completely cured overnight. They didn't know whether to be happy or worried.

They couldn't figure out whether the child's health was good or not, but after thinking about it, they felt relieved. What's the point of worrying about these things? As long as their son (brother) is healthy, everything will be fine.

Jiuqi's disappearance in the past few days still caused Jacob to feel a crisis in his heart again, which was reflected in the fact that he became more clingy in the days that followed and practiced his fruit ability more diligently.

The culprit Jiuqi didn't know how to comfort the "little friend", so he had to stay with Jacob day and night. Fortunately, such companionship could still comfort Jacob's panicked heart, which made Jacob's stress response much better.

Although it was important to accompany Jacob, the mission also had to be completed. Jiuqi, who had already broken through to the Nascent Soul stage, took the opportunity to come to the city of Volterra that night while Jacob was asleep, and asked the small animals who were observing Felix about Felix's recent movements.

Fortunately, he did not miss the opportunity to take revenge in these ten days. Jiu Qi finally breathed a sigh of relief. After understanding the situation, he changed the monitored animals and gave some plant essences to the previous animals before he flashed back to Jacob.

Jiuqi is now very distressed after returning to La Push. Ever since he fought with Felix when he first arrived in Country M, the other party has been following Jane and Alex. Even when Jane and her siblings are not around, there is still a gray-robed vampire that Jiuqi doesn't know with him.

This reduced Jiu Qi's chances of success even more. With Jiu Qi's current strength, he could definitely deal with Felix alone, but now there were either four or two of them, and they all had supernatural powers and were traveling in a group. In this way, Jiu Qi might not be able to defeat them.

After taking away the doll that represented him, Jacob immediately got into Jiuqi's arms as soon as he lay down. Knowing that he was awake, Jiuqi did not expose Jacob's fake sleep. He kissed his forehead and hugged him tighter before Jiuqi closed his eyes.

When Jacob was nine years old, his mother Sarah passed away in a car accident.

Jacob, the fake child who finally had a relative but lost him again, couldn't help but hug Jiuqi and cry bitterly after attending the funeral. He was depressed for more than a month and once again stayed by Jiuqi's side.

His father Billy was so sad about Sarah's death that he developed diabetic syndrome and lost sensation in his legs. He has to live in a wheelchair from then on.

The series of accidents made the family of four suffer extremely painful, but life had to go on, and none of them could be immersed in pain forever. Slowly, with the help of their clansmen, the Black family finally got better and got back on the right track of life.

But Billy has changed a lot. He likes to talk to Jacob about the tribe's traditions and customs more, and hopes that Jacob can serve the tribe forever like him.

Jacob was very good at fooling people in this regard. After all, he used to be the chief steward who served the emperor, and he was good at reading people's expressions.

On the surface, Jacob acted obedient and took his father's teachings to heart, but in his heart he didn't want to stay in the tribe for the rest of his life like his father did.
