Chapter 126 Tuogu
Time passed second by second. Momo kept talking to the mother wolf to distract her, but as time went by, the mother wolf's voice became weaker and weaker, and Yang Nianqing was covered in sweat.

After some time, Yang Nianqing finally took out the mother wolf's cubs. The two little ones were tiny, no bigger than the palm of his hand. Yang Nianqing used his spiritual power to clean the impurities from the cubs' mouths and noses. The cubs were breathing weakly. Yang Nianqing wrapped the cubs in a clean cloth and placed them next to the mother wolf's head. The mother wolf looked at them with longing eyes.

“You gave birth to them, two boys,” Yang Nianqing said softly.

"Thank you." The mother wolf's voice was very weak at this point, and Yang Nianqing had to get very close to hear what she was saying.

Yang Nianqing took out the elixir and placed it near her mouth. "Eat this now, and maybe there's still hope. I'll stitch up your wound right away."

The mother wolf shook her head and said, "It's no use. I can feel my time is up."

At this moment, Mo Mo cried out, "Baby, baby!"

Yang Nianqing quickly went to check on the two wolf cubs. The two newborn wolf cubs were breathing rapidly and their heartbeats were gradually weakening, eventually only beating once or twice in a long while.

Yang Nianqing clenched his fists involuntarily. Was he really just going to watch three lives perish before his eyes? The Beast Taming Sect was truly a menace. Although the mother wolf and her mate were demonic beasts, they had always lived peacefully in the forest and had never harmed anyone. How could they have caused such devastation and death to their families after only a few days in the forest? What right did they have to do this?
The mother wolf then opened her mouth and spat out a round object, which she then divided in two and fed to the two wolf cubs.

"Is this the inner core of a demon?" Yang Nianqing asked in surprise.

Momo nodded.

"But..." Yang Nianqing said doubtfully. As far as she knew, although the inner core of a demon race contained all the demon power of a demon race, an inner core that did not belong to oneself was not so easy to absorb. It was not a simple matter of one plus one equals two. If an inner core that did not belong to oneself was forcibly swallowed, it would be rejected. Although some demon races liked to steal the inner cores of other demon races for cultivation, they all did so by slowly consuming them. No one dared to swallow an inner core that did not belong to themselves directly.

As a fellow demon, Mo Mo knew what she was doing. She sighed and said, "She is burning her own life, sacrificing her soul to save her two children."

Yang Nianqing paused for a moment and looked at the mother wolf and her two cubs. The mother wolf's maternal love was truly touching. No wonder the mother wolf said she had a way to save her children, but it was at the cost of her soul, which would be scattered and never reincarnated again.

Sensing the feedback from the contract, the white wolf, who was running at top speed, felt that his wife's soul was gradually dissipating! Anxious and worried, the white wolf increased his speed by another third, and in a short while he saw his wife's figure.

The white wolf leaped high and landed beside the mother wolf, opening its massive jaws to reveal its fangs as it roared, "Roar!!!"

The mother wolf quickly shouted to stop him, "Ah Yin, stop! They saved me and my child!"

The children? White Wolf Ah Yin turned his head and saw the two small figures lying beside his wife. His eyes shifted from shock to tenderness, but the next moment he sensed something was wrong. His children weren't due to be born yet. How could this be? His eyes fell on his wife's belly, so covered in blood. So that's it…

"Moon..." The white wolf sadly rubbed its nose against the mother wolf's face.

The mother wolf was too weak to stand up anymore. She lay weakly on the ground and, sensing her partner's emotions, she stuck out her tongue and licked her partner's nose. "It's alright. I've lived enough for these thousands of years. I want my babies to see this world."

The mother wolf used the power of the mate contract to let the white wolf see her memories, letting him know that it was Yang Nianqing and Mo Mo who saved their child.

White Wolf coughed twice, spitting out blood. Although it was still dark, they all had night vision and could see that the blood White Wolf coughed up contained purple. Seeing the wounds on White Wolf's body, Mo Mo immediately thought of the Scorpion Tail Whip, the treasure of the Beast Taming Sect!
"You've been poisoned!" Mo Mo said with certainty. "I have an antidote, I'll cure you," Yang Nianqing said quickly. These two little ones are almost without a mother, they can't lose their father too.

White Wolf shook his head. "Thank you both for everything you've done for my wife. The poison has already invaded my heart meridian, and I don't want to cure it anymore. Although my two children were saved by their mother's demon core, it's far from enough. They were about to have their souls dissipate. Now we've only saved their lives; their souls are still incomplete."

"A wolf can only have one mate in its lifetime, to live and die together. Yue'er is dead, and I don't want to stay with her any longer. Consider it my selfishness as a father." The white wolf lowered his head and kissed the two little ones.

"Ah Yin..."

The white wolf touched her forehead again. "With my demon core, they can replenish their souls and become normal again."

The white wolf spat out its inner core, which was much stronger than the mother wolf's. Like the mother wolf's inner core, it split in two and entered the mouths of the two little ones. It also sacrificed its soul to ensure that the two little ones would not reject its inner core and could fully absorb the cultivation and demonic power within it.

The two wolf cubs' breathing became steady, and their bodies grew stronger. The white wolf used its last bit of demonic power to carry them to Yang Nianqing, who reached out her hands to catch the two little wolves.

The mother wolf spoke weakly, "Fairy, I have one last selfish request. Please have pity on their innocent children. If they fall into the hands of the Beast Taming Sect, they will probably suffer a fate worse than death. Please take them with you and let them cultivate with you."

The white wolf knelt before Yang Nianqing, lowering its proud head and saying, "Please, Fairy, accept them."

If it weren't for a last resort, how could they bear to let their child leave them?
Putting himself in their shoes, Yang Nianqing understood their feelings at that moment. Looking at the two little wolves in his hands, Yang Nianqing's heart softened and he said, "I have a blood feud with the Beast Taming Sect. I promise you, I will protect the two brothers."

Both wolves shed tears of gratitude. "Thank you."

The mother wolf, Yue'er, was extremely grateful and prayed for Yang Nianqing's well-being in her heart. "I know the fairy is kind-hearted, and I am truly sorry for putting you in such a difficult position."

Yang Nianqing shook her head and said it was alright. The two wolf cubs slowly opened their eyes and saw Yang Nianqing looking serious. Noticing that the two little ones were looking at her, Yang Nianqing placed them in front of the white wolf and the mother wolf, saying, "Send your parents off on their final journey."

The two little ones have eyes that are inherited from their mother and father respectively; the older brother has blue eyes, and the younger brother has purple eyes.

The mother wolf reached out her paw and tapped the two cubs on the forehead. "We have no other hopes but that you two will live a peaceful and happy life. The older brother with blue eyes will be named Huanhuan, and the younger brother will be named Lele. We will always think of you."

With reluctance, the mother wolf Yue'er slowly closed her eyes, her soul completely dissipating. The white wolf lay beside her, taking one last look at the two little ones and saying, "Be good."

In a short while, the white wolf also stopped breathing. The two demonic beasts, who had cultivated for thousands of years, were completely dead and their cultivation had vanished, never to be reincarnated again.

"Awoo!" As if sensing something, the two little guys looked up at the sky and howled sadly.
