I've seen many people raising wives, but this is the first time I've seen someone raising

After all, the only Pokémon he could use at the moment was Milotic, and the other party did not have the Psychic attribute.

Exploring the way and protecting Latios can only be done by him alone.

If anyone else faced such a situation, they would probably only have the option of waiting for death.

"miu~"

Mienshao whined with some remorse.

For the first time, she envied Tiss's super powers.

"It's okay." Xia Mu gently touched the other's smooth scales and said:

"I have already found the route in advance. You just need to rush out in the positive direction later."

"Remember to be careful of burning objects falling from the sky."

That’s right, Xia Mu finally decided to transform Latios into a soul state here.

Although he would inevitably be weak by then, he believed that Milotic could complete the rest of the journey.

Chapter 3 J, It’s Time to Pay the Price (k)

(Preview Tips: The plot is not what you think, watch it rationally and don't be led by the rhythm.)

"Ladi?"

When Latios opened his eyes, he felt his body was extremely heavy, as if a huge rock was pressing on his chest, and it was difficult for him to even move his wings.

This feeling did not lessen as time passed, but instead became more severe.

But the good news is that Latios' eyes gradually focused and his vision became clearer little by little.

"Xia Mu?"

The moment he could see again, Latios was slightly stunned.

Because he was looking at Xia Mu from a condescending angle at this moment.

There was a faint blue light on the other person's body, and he seemed to be concentrating on doing something, with beads of sweat sliding down his cheeks.

What shocked Latios even more was that he actually saw a Latios lying under his body.

Where did Xia Mu find another Latios?

This question arose in his heart, making him wonder what had happened while he was unconscious.

But just when he was about to ask Xia Mu what happened, he suddenly discovered that the Latios below seemed somewhat familiar?

Burnt wings, covered in mud, and most importantly - the bow bandage Xia Mu had wrapped around it.

Isn't this him?!

After reacting, Latios felt a huge shock.

At the same time, a horrible guess slowly grew in his heart.

I, I can't be dead already, right?

Although he had already prepared for death, Latios still felt melancholy when he found out that he had really left this world.

I won't be able to see my sister anymore, nor will I be able to see Xia Mu anymore...

Death... is horrible...

"Stop moving."

Just as Latios was lost in thought, a familiar voice suddenly sounded.

There was impatience in his tone, but it snapped Latios back to his senses.

When he heard the voice and looked, he saw Xia Mu looking at him with dissatisfaction.

"You are in this state now. Any action you take will consume my energy."

"If you don't behave yourself, be careful. I will be exhausted and can only make half of your body. You will have to figure out how to make the rest by yourself."

These two short sentences seemed to have consumed a lot of Xia Mu's energy, and the light on his body became flickering.

It was not until this moment that Latios was sure that Xia Mu was indeed talking to him.

So he's not dead?

Was it Xia Mu who saved me?

For a moment, many doubts arose in Latios' heart, but he suddenly remembered the other party's strange request on the phone before.

"So... you can turn the creatures you killed into what I am now?"

Latios's mind was very sharp, and he connected the cause and effect in an instant.

Because he didn't have the energy to answer, Xia Mu didn't say anything.

But Latios was certain of his guess, otherwise there was no way to explain his current state.

But after realizing this, Latios did not feel happy about surviving the disaster, but was filled with worries.

He could see that as his body gradually became stronger and healthier, Xia Mu's breath was rapidly weakening.

"Xia Mu, stop!" Latios said in a deep voice with a serious look in his eyes.

Now they were in the middle of a fire, and Xia Mu's act of transferring his own physical strength to him was tantamount to suicide.

However, Xia Mu did not pay any attention to his order and continued to concentrate on transmitting special energy into his body.

Seeing this, Latios became anxious.

But before he opened his mouth, Xia Mu glanced at him first.

For a moment, Latios felt as if his body was being tightened by something, and he instantly lost the ability to speak.

"If you want to live, just stay here quietly." came a calm voice from the other side.

Latios could only watch helplessly as his body grew stronger little by little, and was shaped into the way it was in life.

But at the same time, the fatigue on Xia Mu's face became more and more obvious.

"miu~"

Seeing that the situation was not right, Mienshao howled in worry.

Latios wanted to use his eyes to signal this sea snake, which had been at odds with him in the past, to help him.

But even when the other party turned his gaze in his direction, he remained indifferent.

This made Latios make a conclusion - his current state could not be seen by anyone except Xia Mu.

Does that mean that what Xia Mu is doing now is so that he can be seen by others?

Thinking of this possibility, Latios wanted to struggle even more.

But unfortunately, at this moment, he seemed to have no means of resistance in front of Xia Mu.

Time passed by minute by minute, and the isolation zone that was originally created had been conquered by the flames.

The fire spread again, slowly crawling towards where Xia Mu was.

"miu~"

Mienshao obediently used water cannon to continuously block the fire, while at the same time keeping the thick smoke outside for Xia Mu.

In Latios's perception, a long time had passed, so long that the feeling of chest tightness had completely disappeared from his body.

"Boom~"

With a slight sound, Xia Mu successfully transformed Latios into a soul state.

A huge amount of fatigue suddenly surged up in his body, making him feel as if his eyes were going dark.

"Xia Mu!"

Latios hurriedly tried to support the other person.

However, the moment his palm touched Xia Mu, it went straight through.

"this......"

He couldn't help but be stunned.

"You don't have a real body yet, so you can't touch these things." After taking a breath, Xia Mu explained to him.

"No, it's okay."

"It's...already good." Latios said sincerely.

I can continue to live in this world in this way, quietly accompanying Xia Mu and Latias, watching them grow up little by little.

This was enough for Latios.

"Xia Mu, let Mienshao take you out quickly."

Knowing that now was not the time to talk about other things, Latios looked at Xia Mu solemnly.

The trees in the forest are so dense that it is impossible to just wait until the fire is extinguished.

The only way was to get Xia Mu out as soon as possible before the fire spread further.

However, what made Latios stunned was that Xia Mu shook his head at his suggestion.

"I'm not going back." said the other party.

"You, what are you talking about?"

Latios seemed to not understand what was said just now, and asked with a slightly trembling voice.

He hoped it wasn't what he thought.

"Don't be willful, Latias is still waiting for you to come back..."

"Latias is on his way."

With just one sentence, everything Latios wanted to say was blocked back in his mouth.

He opened his mouth as if he wanted to say something.

Suddenly, he seemed to realize something and looked at "himself" lying on the ground.

"Wouldn't that be..."

"Yes, someone wants to sow discord."

Xia Mu sneered and acknowledged Latios's guess.

If he had not extended his mental power as far as possible before pinching Latios' body and discovered Tess who had arrived, the consequences would have been disastrous.

He didn't dare to think about how the other party would react when he saw Latios falling beside him.

"You want to sow discord, huh?"

"Then I will satisfy your request."

Muttering softly, Xia Mu had already made a decision.

He definitely couldn't get away by normal means, as he found a large amount of Alidos silk threads both inside and outside the island.

It is self-evident who wrote this.

Moreover, it is not ruled out that the other party has other means of reconnaissance to keep an eye on him and Latias. If they want to leave like this, they will definitely be fiercely intercepted.

In that case, Xia Mu decided not to leave.

"What do you want to do?"

Latios, who was always paying attention to Xia Mu, couldn't help but feel a pang in his heart when he saw that Xia Mu's eyes suddenly became deep and dark.

"Latios, take good care of Tis from now on."

As if to confirm his guess, Xia Mu said in a calm voice.

For a moment, Latios' eyes widened and his breathing was choked.
