"How is it? Human, have you been intimidated by this empress' great power? And this is only the power of this empress in her infancy. In the future, this empress' power will only grow, and you humans will not be able to imagine it. If you change your mind now, this empress' words will still count. "
Elise laughed arrogantly. Her voice was filled with temptation and threat. Using power to tempt, using power to threaten. It was a classic stick and candy. Although it was very old, the more old-fashioned the method, the more effective it was. This method had always been used by people. The ones who used it the most, and the ones who were the most proficient at it were probably those politicians.
"Sorry, I'm not interested in an eight-legged thing like you. Just looking at you makes me feel disgusted. If I were to work for you, I'd rather kill me."
Although if he said something to stall Elise, it would give Ronnie and Halief more time to rest. However, Chu Rui's character and temper wouldn't allow him to do so. The ugly monster in front of him had not only hurt his dignity and honor as the King of Assassins, Crimson Shadow Ghost, but also killed his teammates, causing him to lose all his face. Face was only secondary. The key was that this thing hurt the people he approved of. There was only one result — they were irreconcilable. Either you die or I die!
"Stupid creature who doesn't know how to appreciate kindness! Since you want to go to hell so much, this empress will fulfill your wish. "
Elise's face instantly darkened after being rejected again, and she coldly scolded. A pair of scarlet eyes burst out with a strong killing intent. This monster was now completely filled with killing intent. No matter what Chu Rui did, she would kill him. Although in her mind, this human in front of her wasn't bad, her dignity as an empress wouldn't allow him to refute her again and again.
"If you want to touch him, you'll have to step over our dead bodies first."
Seeing Elise's reaction, Ronnie and Halief, who were already covered in wounds, stood in front of her and blocked her. In their eyes, this disaster was caused by them. Chu Rui and the others were implicated. Originally, Chu Rui and the others could have left, but he made them face a powerful magical creature like Elise. She even risked her life to save Kris. Not to mention that Chu Rui had not yet repaid his debt of gratitude for saving his life and freeing him. Now, he was helping him take revenge, and his companions were all dead. As knights, Ronnie and Halief would never let Elise hurt Chu Rui again.
"You have guts! Since you want to die so much, this Emperor will fulfill your wish! "
He looked at the two ants in front of him. Their bodies were still being corroded by his poison. Even in such a state, they still dared to stand out. They were truly unafraid of death.
"That's exactly what I want. I've been controlled by you for so many years, and I've done so many evil things. It's time to settle the score. Today, either you die, or I die! "
Halief gripped his weapon and gritted his teeth. For the first time, the gentle and bright blue eyes of the man who had returned to his original appearance emitted a look of hatred.
"Hahaha … How laughable. Those things you did were all your own doing. This Emperor didn't interfere at all. It was you who succumbed to the darkness in your heart. You personally killed your beloved, your best brother, and your neighbors in the village. What does this have to do with this Emperor? Humans are such fragile creatures. When you encounter something that doesn't go your way, your willpower isn't firm enough, and you succumb to the darkness. You do things that don't conform to your so-called common sense and morals. You choose to avoid responsibility and shirk responsibility. This Emperor really finds it laughable and shameful. You humans are just that kind of creatures. Cowardly, lamentable, laughable, not daring to take responsibility, irresponsible … It's no wonder that other creatures with a bit of fame and power look down on you. "
Elise's disdainful words reverberated in the cave, causing Halief's face to continuously twitch. His expression was complicated. Although this came from Elise's mouth, it had to be said that her words made some sense. In Halief's heart, the thing he couldn't cross the most was that hurdle. That hurdle where he had succumbed to the darkness and done those kinds of things to the people most important to him.
"You're right, I really did it!" Halief's expression was extremely pained. He dejectedly lowered the hand holding his weapon.
"These things have passed long ago, haven't they, Halief?" Suddenly, a hand grasped Halief's drooping hand and slowly lifted it up. Who else could it be but Ronnie?
"Halief, don't stop him. You're Halief. I only know you're Halief. That's enough! "At some point, Kris had also walked over. She placed her hands over her heart and looked at Halief with slightly moist eyes.
He looked at the grinning Ronnie and the faintly and gently smiling Kris. He looked at Ronnie's firm and friendly eyes and looked at Kris' gentle and encouraging eyes. Halief smiled, a happy smile, a smile of relief. That radiant smile made Elise a little dazed. She felt that the darkness in the heart of the man in front of her, who had once been controlled by her because of the darkness in his heart, had actually disappeared in an instant. It had completely disappeared.
"Elise, your words will no longer bewitch my heart in the slightest. With them here, I will be invincible! "
Halief held his longsword, his aura surging as he stared at Spider Queen Elise with his head held high.
"Is that so? Have you forgotten that back then, you sold your soul to this empress in exchange for power! "
Elise laughed sinisterly and chanted a few unknown evil incantations. Halief, who was originally surging with momentum, let out an extremely mournful scream as if he was being tortured. He held his head and squatted on the ground, his entire body twitching.
"The rights to your soul are still in this empress' hands. You didn't think that the trump card this empress had been hiding would be so useful at this moment. You think that you can escape this empress' control just because you escaped that broken body? Dream on! "
Elise laughed sinisterly. That smile was an extremely bewitching smile of death, a smile of victory. However, in the eyes of Chu Rui and the others, it was incomparably chilling.
"Halief, are you alright?" Looking at Halief's pained expression, Kris's tears gushed out in an instant.
"I … am … fine!" Halief clenched his teeth and spat out a few words. In order to make Kris feel at ease, he even forced a smile. Unfortunately, his face was already twisted from the pain, and his smile was even uglier than a ghost's.
