What could be more painful than death? For some people, it was better to be dead than alive. For some people, death was like living. Therefore, death was not a big deal. What was more painful than death was naturally not a big deal.
Therefore, Yan Li's heartstrings didn't waver at all. It was just like when he held the soft jade in his arms and kissed her passionately just now. His heartstrings didn't waver at all, because facing a vicious woman like Honored Consort Zhi, he would be doomed eternally if he was not careful. He had almost died in the hands of women many times. Although it was not bad, at least he should die in the hands of the woman he loved. For example, the Wine Fairy was drunk to death, the general was killed in battle, and the swordsman was stabbed to death by a sword. Obviously, he did not love Honored Consort Zhi. He fell in love with Ji Zhiyuan at first sight, but he would not fall in love with Honored Consort Zhi at first sight.
However, Yan Li soon found out what it felt like. The scene on the street changed dramatically. All the pedestrians suddenly turned into light and disappeared. Honored Consort Zhi sneered and also turned into a light in the darkness, shooting into the curtain of rain. It seemed that Laohei was pulled by an invisible string. He screamed and was taken into the curtain of rain, so Yan Li could only chase after him.
After chasing for a long time, Yan Li suddenly found that Honored Consort Zhi had fallen to a tall building. Under her feet was a banner fluttering in the wind and rain. As soon as he landed, he was about to kill Honored Consort Zhi, but he saw that she was laughing and talking, as if she did not care about her own safety at all. He did not believe that a woman like Honored Consort Zhi was not afraid of death. Soon, he realized something was wrong.
The surrounding buildings were suddenly annihilated by a mysterious force field, and the curtain of rain was also opened. Many people suddenly appeared in the open space. He did not have the time to count how many people there were, because he saw the missing Huang Shaoyu, Yu Qiuyu, Li Ku, and the three golden flowers who abandoned the three outstanding descendants of Cangjian Peak …
"It's the master!" Lao Hei was like a black flag hanging on a pole at the other end. Seeing that Huang Shaoyu was safe and sound, he cried out in excitement.
Li Ku was actually tangled up by the mud dragon. Meanwhile, in this instant, Yu Qiuyu also took action. Sword radiance tore through the void, illuminating the mask on Bai Xing's face until it became incredibly pale.
After the sword radiance passed, Li Ku collapsed in a pool of blood. Bai Xing laid down in pain, crying bitterly. His hoarse cries carried endless pain.
Success?
When he saw Li Ku collapse, Huang Shaoyu's face revealed an expression of shock. He really found it hard to believe that a murderous demon king like Li Ku was actually killed by them so easily.
However, Li Ku wasn't going to die that easily after all. One of his hands was pressed against Bai Xing's head, the other hand supporting himself in the pool of blood, slowly crawling up. His entire body was soaked in blood, his mouth also continuously vomiting blood, looking extremely miserable. But he was still smiling. "Interesting."
Everyone could tell that he already didn't have long to live.
However, wasn't a wild beast on the verge of death even more frightening? That was why when he drew the old flute, the five who launched a sneak attack all knew that they would die in the next moment. At this time, no matter what they did, they couldn't save themselves. Those that Li Ku wanted to kill, no matter who it was, couldn't escape.
All of this happened in two breaths of time. Before Yan Li even had time to greet them, the situation already entered a suffocating state.
Li Ku showed him great kindness, Yu Qiuyu was a fellow disciple he treated with sincerity and sincerity, Huang Shaoyu was his subordinate. He knew why these two wanted to assassinate Li Ku, also knowing that Li Ku was seriously injured, so he had to kill these two, only then could the hatred within him be released. Otherwise, who knew what he would do.
Now, he knew what Noble Consort Zhi was referring to. This was simply an unresolvable situation. Could it be that for the sake of protecting these two, he had to rush up and kill Li Ku? This was something that completely crossed his bottom line, as well as something he definitely wouldn't do. In this world, there weren't many feelings more painful than death. He just happened to encounter the most painful type.
"Stop!"
Yan Li still rushed up to block Li Ku's sword. This sword was extremely difficult to block. If Li Ku wasn't seriously injured, he didn't think it would be that easy to block it. He saw the unfamiliar and hateful light on Bai Xing's mask where her eyes should be. His heart felt as if it was exposed to the scorching sun, and he could only try his best not to look at her. This couldn't be helped. He definitely couldn't watch Yu Qiuyu and Huang Shaoyu die in front of his eyes.
The strength that Li Ku managed to support with great difficulty scattered again. He fell down. The eyes that looked at Yan Li were full of mockery, a trace of a cold smile hanging on the corners of his lips.
Bai Xing stood up in anger. The space between her thumb and index finger was split open, and her blood was swallowed by the Heaven Punishment Axe. Her long-lasting friendliness towards Yan Li was completely replaced by hatred at this moment.
"Jiejiejie …" Right at this time, Fu Jian's strange laughter sounded. "Swallow, take advantage of this moment to eat Li Ku."
Bai Xing temporarily shifted her vigilance. She only saw a sky full of sand rush out from the curtain of rain, wrapping towards Bai Xing like a sky full of locusts. Bai Xing brandished her giant axe. In her anger, her attacks were more forceful than any other time, but the sky full of sand didn't have a solid body. No matter how heavy her attacks were, she couldn't touch the core of the Celestial Cult, so it was completely useless.
Qiang lang!
The sound of a sword being drawn suddenly sounded. It seemed like there was only a single sound, but all of the experts here could hear that it was two sounds that seemed to have happened at the same time. The sky full of sand and the humanoid monster that threw itself at Li Ku also instantly turned into powder.
"Get lost!"
Yan Li stood there with his sword in hand. Right now, his expression was extremely cold. He didn't even need to say the following words, because there was definitely no one in this world who was willing to endure his current rage.
Fu Jian condensed in midair again, wrapping around Shen Tun who still wanted to throw himself over. He looked at Yan Li with an extremely cold and indifferent expression, and then suddenly left without saying anything.
He had to leave. He had to leave, because this sword destroyed a tenth of their star cores. This meant that they couldn't last more than ten strikes under Yan Li's hands before their star cores would shatter and return to nirvana. Even though the star cores were continuously being perfected, the strength of these Celestial Cult members also continuously increasing, this man who stood against Celestial Cult Street from the very start also understood them more and more.
"Yan Li, I'm sorry …" Yu Qiuyu said in a heavy and painful voice. He suddenly did something that left everyone shocked. He actually directly tore off his right hand, flinging it onto the ground.
"You've gone mad!" Huang Shaoyu's expression changed greatly. He rushed up to support Yu Qiuyu who was on the verge of collapse. Yu Qiuyu endured the pain, turning his left hand into a palm blade, hacking down on the nape of Huang Shaoyu's neck. Huang Shaoyu had complete trust in him, so how could he have predicted this type of sneak attack? He immediately fainted.
"Qiuyu!" Yan Li's expression changed, but soon afterwards, he understood. His eyes carried deep pain and distress. "You had to get revenge, but you didn't want to make things difficult for me either, so you used a hand to compensate me."
"Thank you." Yu Qiuyu revealed a faint smile. He normally didn't smile, but he felt like the joy of meeting someone who understood him really was hard to express. He wanted Yan Li to know how he felt.
A swordsman's hand that gripped the sword, wasn't it his life? By severing this arm, it was as if there was no salvation, so he could continue his revenge.
The Thirteen Palaces landed in his left hand. His entire body turned into a streak of sword radiance, throwing himself at Li Ku. However, he couldn't touch Li Ku, because he already couldn't break through Bai Xing's defenses. When his arm was intact, he might not even be able to defeat the little daoist child, let alone now that he lost an arm? Perhaps he only did this for the sake of seeking death, so that his lover wouldn't be alone.
Yu Qiuyu's body was hacked into more than ten pieces by the Heaven Punishing Axe, blood everywhere. Regardless of who it was, there was no way they could get out of this alive.
This revenge finally came to an end. Without a doubt, no one obtained redemption, nor did they obtain joy. It only made karma even more fragmented.
Revenge was something that couldn't be obtained.
Yan Li's heart felt as if it was drenched in a torrential rain, ice-cold to the point where it couldn't beat. Who could understand what he was feeling right now? From a certain perspective, wasn't he also another Yu Qiuyu? This type of unavoidable sorrow was something that could only be truly understood after personally experiencing it.
"Look, Yan Li, this consort has said that you will suffer more pain than death." A great mist suddenly surged, binding Bai Xing and Li Ku like ropes, following them into the torrential rain.
Yan Li released a streak of sword radiance, freeing Old Black from the pole. Then, he turned into a streak of sword radiance and chased after them.
Old Black landed on the ground. He gave the unconscious Huang Shaoyu a look, and then looked at the corpses all over the ground. He couldn't help but stamp his feet. "Hey, what is this?! Living is so painful, it really is better to just die! "He unknowingly spoke a line of wisdom. Some people, while alive, were indeed already the same as dead.
