Li Hongzhuang did not respond to Yan Li's words.
Yan Li knew that this matter could not be resolved peacefully. From her behavior, he could tell that Ye Qiuchi meant a great deal to her. Before this, she had been such a high-spirited woman. Her strength and pride had been shattered by Ye Qiuchi's disdainful gaze before he left.
In retrospect, this woman had brought him a great deal of trouble, the greatest of which was the Demon Blood. Otherwise, he would not have fallen to such a state. But trouble was trouble. From the bottom of his heart, he truly had to admire her methods and scheming. At this moment, when he saw her empty eyes and motionless body like a zombie, he felt somewhat uncomfortable.
Soon after, she started to despise herself because of this uncomfortable feeling. Just now, she had clearly thought that it was better to take advantage of her and wanted nothing more than to swallow her whole. Now, with this cheap sympathy, wasn't it a ruthless slap to her face?
Since she was an enemy, he had to attack her at all costs.
Uncomfortable was uncomfortable, but if he could do it all over again, he would still do the same thing. After reaching this conclusion, he calmed down.
Taking advantage of this interval, he actively considered his next course of action. According to this woman's personality, she would most likely grind him to death after suffering great pain. Then, he would have to be mentally prepared for the torture that would follow. Only after enduring it would he have a chance to escape.
But he had underestimated the degree of shock Li Hongzhuang had received. After an unknown amount of time, her expression changed. She suddenly turned her head to stare at Yan Li with a very shocked expression, as if questioning why this stinking bug was still alive.
An immeasurable pressure suddenly pressed down.
The power of the blood-red Primordial Spirit cruelly dismembered Yan Li. He felt as if every inch of his flesh and blood was being cut by a blade of ice. Even at the moment when he was close to death, he still had to endure torturous torture.
"Die!" Li Hongzhuang laughed cruelly. She had no sympathy for this man she had just come into close contact with. Her beautiful eyes shone with madness and bloodthirst. At this moment, he only wanted to grind Yan Li into a bloody pulp. It didn't matter if he was drenched. Perhaps he would be a little calmer.
Yan Li could barely think. His Qi was completely suppressed in his Source Sea, making it impossible for him to even launch a final counterattack.
He suddenly felt a burning sensation in his chest.
At this moment, the Dragon God Ring emitted a beam of light. It swiftly and violently broke through the blood-red Primordial Spirit Power and opened up a protective barrier.
Absolute Domain!
In his half-annihilated consciousness, he recognized that this was the supernatural power of the former general. He forcefully raised his last breath of life. The clothes in his hands had long been torn to pieces. At this moment, who cared about being naked? He broke into a run.
"Go to hell!"
When Li Hongzhuang saw this, his expression suddenly changed. He let out a sharp cry, and countless fiery red maple leaves formed from the power of his primordial spirit quickly flew out and smashed into Yan Li's back.
Amidst a series of violent explosions, the Absolute Domain was directly torn apart by the powerful force. Just as the thought of using Separation Cliff to block the attack appeared in Yan Li's mind, he felt a pain in his back. He vomited a large mouthful of blood in midair and fell into the cold pond with a plop, sinking downwards.
Li Hongzhuang stared blankly for a moment, then suddenly collapsed. She was naked as she fell to the cold ground. Her body slowly curled up like a silkworm, and two streams of tears flowed from her eyes. At first, she choked silently, but gradually she could not control herself. Finally, she cried bitterly, like a little girl abandoned by the whole world.
Red Shirt, who had rushed over after hearing the news, was stunned. In her impression, ever since she was born, her master had never lost her composure. She felt inferior because of this. She thought that those who cried, especially women, were all useless mud that could not be helped. But now, she was crying like this. She did not even care about losing face in front of her. What kind of blow was this?
"Master!" She walked over to help Li Hongzhuang up, took out some clothes and put them on her. She hugged her tightly, trying to warm her with what little body heat she had left. She had always been a man of few words. At this moment, how could she say words of comfort? She could only think heartbreakingly: Why did things develop to this point?
…
Why did things develop to this point?
If Yan Li had been the one to answer this question, he would have shouldered half of the responsibility. The instant the cold pond water wrapped around him, he recalled the memories of this life in that short instant, because he knew that he was going to die.
The absolute domain had been forcefully shattered by the demonic Li Hongzhuang. The amount of damage that remained did not matter. The cold water itself was enough to take his life.
As his consciousness sank into the darkness, he did not feel any anger or resentment. In the end, he had taken advantage of the situation. Especially in the environment where he was born, the concept of chastity was a very strong imprint. Destroying a woman's innocence was equivalent to destroying her entire life. This was completely unreasonable.
Cultivators were also people. In other words, any intelligent creature that could think for themselves could become a unique individual in this vast world because of the existence of the seven emotions and six desires. Beneath the surface of most beautiful things was sorrow and bitterness that ordinary people could not imagine. They were able to survive because they had a belief in their hearts that was enough to support them.
Li Hongzhuang's belief was not the throne of the Demon Lord, but Ye Qiuchi, so she wanted to give him the best.
。 But tonight, this belief collapsed with a bang.
Although Yan Li was aware that he had to bear this responsibility, he was still somewhat unwilling. He had not avenged his blood feud, had not saved his most beloved woman, and had died at the bottom of this cold pool. It could be foreseen that if Li Hongzhuang's anger had not subsided, she might find his corpse and torture it until only his bones remained.
His consciousness floated up into the sky, just like that day in Guangwei Forest, when the remnant soul of the patriarch had taken him to roam the sea of stars.
Of course, all he could see was darkness. Was it because there were not many stars in the night sky of the Demon Realm? He did not know how long this last thought would last. With a trace of confusion, he continued to explore.
There seemed to be a ray of light in the darkness.
It was a dazzling star!
Soon after, there were even more, as if they had been lit up by something, shining brightly before his eyes. He saw that the Sword Heart, the Hidden Sword, and the Blue Lotus had also come to join in the fun, happily chasing and playing in that suddenly brightened place.
Hm?
Why are they here?
Could it be that this is my existence?
His heart suddenly trembled, and Bai Kongxue's words, "The Sword Palace is in the world", seemed to echo in his ears. At this moment, he finally understood that in the world, he was himself. Every individual was detached from this world, so he was in the world, and so he was the Sword Palace.
But what was the use of understanding now?
At this moment, he felt his body stop sinking, and he was embraced by a pair of hands.
