Bab 428: A Thousand Miles Southward, Mount Gu Cong

Wang Tuzi felt the raindrops trickle down his body. At first, it felt ticklish, but what came next was a wave of comforting warmth. 

It was as if he was submerged in a warm water bath.

Even his pet beast, the nasty vulture felt the same feeling of comfort.

Wang Tuzi's pet beast had been heavily injured some years back. Not only has it failed to make a full recovery, but there was a toxic buildup in its body thanks to its diet of rotten flesh. 

Although rotten flesh was commonly eaten by vultures, the exacerbating factor was its injuries. They had hindered its ability to suppress the toxins and was the reason for the years of excruciating pain it had suffered to date. Wang Tuzi had the endure the suffering as well thanks to their blood pact. Years of constant debilitating pain was how his harrowing appearance came to be.
