"Stop!" Dean said in a low voice.
The strong man didn't seem to hear Dean's words as he slowly walked forward step by step. There was no expression on his face.
"Stop!!" Dean growled, and a sharp blade pierced out from his left shoulder, cutting the girl's cheek. Blood flowed out of the wound. The girl screamed in pain but soon bit her lips so that she wouldn't make a sound.
The strong man's expressionless face turned cold as he said in a hoarse voice: "Are you from the Shenluo Empire?"
"Are you her father?" Dean looked at the burly man who stopped, and his heart was slightly relieved, but he was still extremely nervous, but his expression was indifferent and cold, as if he had nothing to fear. "I heard that you are also from the Shenluo Empire. Did you defect and escape?"
The strong man looked at him coldly and turned to the girl. He looked at Dean for a moment and said: "Let go of her and I'll let you die a quick death."
Dean sneered, "Your two daughters are in my hands. If you want them to live, you have to do what I say." At this point, he could only put on the appearance of a 'kidnapper' and take hostages to save his life.
The burly man gazed at him in silence. Moments later, he said, "You're deserters from the empire, right?"
"What do you want to say?" Dean narrowed his eyes.
"Even if I let you go, you won't have the ability to survive here. As for returning to the empire …" There was a trace of ridicule on the strong man's indifferent face: "You will suffer a fate worse than death."
"Maybe we are the vanguard of the empire?" Dean smiled.
The strong man indifferently said: "Not long ago, the fire dragons gathered magic beasts to attack the God of War Wall. The scale of this attack is enough to damage the vitality of the God of War Wall. How would they have the energy to send the vanguard to investigate the aliens?"
"You seem to know a lot." Dean whispered: "You know that the aliens gathered magic beasts to attack the God of War Wall but you didn't inform in advance. So you are no different from us. You have betrayed the empire!"
"Betrayed the empire?" A cold glint flashed across the muscular man's indifferent eyes. "The empire betrayed me!"
Dudian was startled. His tone softened as he said: "Since we are on the same side, the enemy of my enemy is my friend. Maybe we can cooperate. After all, you won't get any benefits if you kill us. But you will have a few more helpers."
The brawny man saw that Dudian intended to make peace. A glimmer flashed in the depths of his eyes, but his expression was still indifferent: "Whether you can be my friend or not depends on how much sincerity you have."
Dean smiled: "Of course I'm sincere. But forgive me for not letting go of your daughter. After all, I don't see your sincerity."
The burly man stared at him. "What do you think is considered sincere?"
"There is no need for oaths or guarantees. I think we can communicate with each other through letters and secret codes. You leave first and I will release your daughters and let them go back. Then we will meet again next time." Dean said quickly. It seemed that he was prepared for this.
The burly man stared at him for a moment and sighed. He whispered: "Your little cleverness really makes me a little impatient!"
Dean was startled. A warning sign rose in his heart.
The moment the strong man finished his words, his body suddenly disappeared. To be precise, he disappeared from Dudian's field of vision. He turned into a dark red afterimage and appeared in front of Dudian in a flash.
Dean's tense heart jumped in fright. He held the girl's sharp blade and quickly stabbed into the girl's body. He believed that when the burly man attacked him from the side, he and the girl would perish together.
At this moment of life and death, this was the only thing he could think of.
Puff!
Suddenly, a hard object pierced through his chest. The violent force shook his entire body, followed by a cold tearing sensation and blazing pain at the same time.
His eyes widened in disbelief as he stared at the brawny man in front of him. One of his arms had transformed into a giant pincer that pierced through the chest of the girl in front of him, piercing straight through his body, killing two birds with one stone.
"You …" Dean was shocked. At the same time, the shadow of death shrouded over his head. He didn't have time to be in a daze. At this critical moment, his right arm released the demon form and revealed a huge ice claw. He fiercely hammered at the burly man.
The burly man was startled. He raised his other arm that wasn't demonized to block.
Bang!
The ground shook slightly, and the force of the impact spread out. The strong man's body slightly swayed and leaned back more than ten degrees, while Dean's body suddenly retreated. The giant pincer, stained with blood, separated from his chest, and blood sprayed everywhere.
With the recoil force, Dean retreated to Aisha's side. He looked at the burly man whose arm was unscathed. His heart was shocked and cold at the same time.
It must be known that the power of his ice claw was ten times that of his left hand. It was comparable to the full blow of the upper abyss. However, the burly man didn't demonize and only relied on his human body to resist.
Was this the power of the lord of the abyss?
Or, was it a stronger existence?
"Dad, dad …" The girl looked at the burly man who was hugging her. Her voice was weak and she called out reluctantly.
The strong man undid the demonization of his arm. When the giant pincer returned to its original form, it looked extremely slender. He pulled it back from her broken chest, and there was a trace of gentleness on his cold face. He said softly, "I hurt you. Wait for me here." As he said that, he used the hand that had pierced through her chest and was stained with blood to stroke her hair. His face was filled with love.
The girl squeezed out a smile. She wanted to say something but coughed up a mouthful of blood.
The burly man slowly put her body on the ground. He looked up at Dean in front of him. The tenderness in his eyes had long disappeared. Instead, it was replaced by cold killing intent. However, when his eyes fell on Dean's huge ice right arm, he was obviously startled. The killing intent in his eyes also converged a lot. He slightly frowned.
Dean's eyes were gloomy. He didn't take the opportunity to escape. He knew that with his leg strength, he couldn't outrun the burly man. It would only be a waste of his physical strength. He thought about how to escape, but after thinking about it, he still couldn't come up with any hope.
Was this the end of her life?
He didn't feel too sad in his heart. He was just a little unwilling, a little regretful, and a little relieved. He had experienced so many times on the edge of life and death that he was already numb to this kind of feeling.
The biggest regret was that he couldn't resurrect Aisha.
This debt could only last until the next life — if there was a reincarnation in this world.
"You're smart not to escape." The burly man slowly walked toward Dean step by step. He said slowly: "Where is Daina? She's the first girl you caught."
"Dead." Dean said expressionlessly. He didn't try to use Daina's life to make a deal. From the moment the burly man pierced through the girl's chest without hesitation, Dean knew that the status of his two daughters in the burly man's mind might not be so high that he would make mistakes and take risks.
"Do you want to die?" The burly man walked in front of Dean and looked down at him.
Dean saw the distance between them, and his gray heart germinated a glimmer of hope. He was still expressionless: "Since I've fallen into your hands, I have nothing to say. I've killed people, and I'm ready to be killed."
"You're open-minded." The burly man slowly took two steps forward. "But death isn't the most terrible thing."
"What do you want?" Dean looked up at him. "Torture? Abuse? Or get information about the empire from my mouth? If you have these hobbies, I can satisfy you. As for the empire, I don't mind telling you what you want to know. After all, I'm also a rebel. "
