Tears welled up in the young demon cultivator’s eyes. “Please, hurry up! We’ll protect you!”
I said let go!
Su Yuqi suddenly brushed their hands away, but after taking two steps, she tripped and almost fell.
His body had reached its limits, and even walking became difficult.
The middle-aged man looked at Su Yuqi, a cruel smile tugging at the corner of his mouth.
“The Holy Virgin of the Fire Demon bloodline, who is at the peak of the third stage of the Golden Immortal Realm, is indeed a rare opponent.”
His voice sounded like a game of cat and mouse full of satisfaction, “Unfortunately, you are carrying too heavy a load. If you came alone, you might be able to fight to a draw with me, and even have a chance to grab the Cold Abyss Heart. But you are carrying this bunch of useless trash” He shook his head, “You are quick to die.”
He raised the golden staff, and the Light Stone at the top of the staff once again gathered holy light.
“Now, it’s time for you to go home.”
Golden holy light condensed at the top of the scepter, growing brighter and denser until it finally solidified into a golden ball the size of a human head, which contained enough power to completely destroy Su Yuqi.
Su Yuqi stood still, neither dodging nor parrying.
Not because I don’t want to, but because I don’t have the strength.
He simply raised his head, his dark red eyes fixed on that ball of golden light, his gaze without any fear, only filled with a sense of freedom and tranquility.
Is this the end?
Possible.
He should have died long ago.
Since the day she lost her memory, the Su Yuqi of the past was already dead.
Now, he was nothing more than a puppet whose memories had been reshaped by the demons, a living tool for the benefit of the Fire Demon bloodline.
dying here would probably be a relief.
He closed his eyes.
Then, he heard the sound of swords clashing.
The sound of the sword’s boom was loud and long, like something tearing through the air, or like something awakening from its slumber.
It was no ordinary sword cry, but rather a sword cry that contained ancient laws, every vibration resonating with the ancient power between heaven and earth.
After the sound of the sword clashing, there was a deafening roar.
explosion
The ball of golden holy light exploded less than ten feet away from Su Yuqi, but the explosion did not occur on its own; instead, the ball was split into two by the purple sword aura.
The moment the purple sword energy collided with the golden ball of light, the two completely different powers attacked each other fiercely in the confined space, releasing unimaginable energy waves.
The golden holy light and purple chaotic power intertwined, collided, and annihilated each other in the air, forming a visible shock wave that spread out in all directions.
Wherever the shock wave passed, it plowed several deep gullies into the surface of the ice, and the ice layer at the edge of the gully was eroded by the high temperature and chaotic force, leaving it riddled with holes.
Su Yuqi was jolted back several steps by the shock wave, but she did not fall as she was caught by a strong hand.
It was a hand that was not very big in size, but its strength was extraordinary.
Su Yuqi suddenly opened her eyes, and what came into view from behind was a purple figure.
That figure was not tall, in fact rather thin, but standing there, he resembled an immovable mountain.
Chaotic purple energy flowed around him, shimmering with cold light under the light of the icy blue passage.
The Dragon Slayer Sword lay before him, its blade burning with chaotic purple flames. The flame flickered and dispelled the cold around him.
David.
Su Yuqi watched his retreating figure, complex emotions flashing in her dark red eyes.
He didn’t understand why David, who was only at the eighth level of the True Immortal Realm, would save him.
Was there a past between them that he didn’t know about?
He wanted to ask, but the words stopped.
His gaze fell on his shoulder, where there were scars scorched by the holy light, his skin blackened from the burn and still emitting thin white smoke.
It was the impact of the shock caused by his sword slash that split the golden ball in two.
He used his own body to protect her from the holy light that was enough to kill her.
Su Yuqi’s eyes suddenly felt a little sore.
He didn’t know why.
Maybe it was because it had been too long since anyone had protected him like this.
Since losing his memories, he had always been the saint of the Fire Demon lineage, a great and mighty being who protected others, not the protected.
He was used to facing everything alone, used to protecting his people from all danger, and used to silently mourning his wounds after being injured.
He never imagined that one day a cultivator of the eighth level of the True Immortal Realm would use his own body to protect him from a fatal blow.
