"Kill Shroud? Why would you think I wanted to kill him? "Atley chuckled and asked.
Gu Qing Shan ignored him and replied: "When we were faced with danger, you and Reneedol left us behind, I really don't know why you came back this time"
Atley shook his head: "We're still comrades, I don't want to make things too tense. Give me everything Shroud has on him, then I'll let you go"
Green wind blades flew out from his body and formed a row behind him.
One of the blades vanished for a split second.
Rumble rumble — —
A crack appeared on the ground, extending all the way to Gu Qing Shan's feet.
Atley pridefully said: "Rhode, give me everything Shroud has, then you can take Shroud, Epta, and Scarlet with you"
Gu Qing Shan looked at him with a strange expression.
From the sky, the bird of flames of death descended and landed on Gu Qing Shan's body.
The bird turned into boiling black flames that drifted behind Gu Qing Shan's back, then manifested as a long black scythe.
Gu Qing Shan grabbed the scythe and said: "Where did you get the confidence to make me obediently give you Shroud's things?"
He lightly tapped his feet and abruptly flew towards Atley.
Atley's gaze became sharp and shouted: "Slash!"
Several dozen azure wind blades manifested behind his back to receive the black scythe in Gu Qing Shan's hand.
The blue light and black flames clashed and shot straight up into the sky.
The light in the sky became chaotic, the intense wind howled and blew the clouds away.
Gu Qing Shan rode the wind to retreat, landed where she originally stood, and swung the scythe: "I only used a tenth of my power, if you want to die, I'll grant you your wish with my next strike"
Atley took a step back, fearfully staring at the scythe.
He could sense that the other party had truly held back.
Otherwise …
Atley paused briefly, then suddenly said: "You forced me to do this"
He reached his hand into the carriage and pulled someone out.
Reneedol.
Reneedol was tied up tightly and couldn't move at all.
Atley put two of his fingers together and a green blade appeared in his hand.
He placed the long blade on Reneedol's neck and shouted,
"Give me everything on Shroud, or I'll kill her!"
Gu Qing Shan was stunned.
— — What kind of trick is this?
He looked at Reneedol.
Reneedol was looking at the scene on the ground with a surprised expression.
Not good!
Gu Qing Shan had a bad feeling in her heart and suddenly reacted.
Reneedol could directly obtain the power of others.
Shroud was lying motionlessly on the ground, but Reneedol appeared surprised. That could only mean one thing — —
She replaced Atley's power and tried to draw on Shroud's.
— — she had noticed that Shroud was recovering his strength!
Gu Qing Shan's heart sank, then swung the long scythe with all her strength.
Intense black flames erupted from the scythe, manifesting into hundreds of black flame birds that flew towards Atley and Reneedol.
Atley was shocked and shouted: "Rhode, you want to kill Reneedol?"
He pulled Reneedol in front of him.
Before the black flames even reached her, Gu Qing Shan had already leapt up several dozen meters away and raised her long black scythe.
The scythe howled shrilly as it slashed towards the two of them.
At this point, the black flames had also arrived in front of Atley and Reneedol.
Darkness enveloped them. Gu Qing Shan was inside the darkness, wielding her scythe to claim their lives.
It only took him a single breath's worth of time to accomplish this.
— — Reneedol was currently tied up, so it was already too late for her to unleash her Fate ability.
Her power had also just been converted from Atley's Law of Wind to Shroud's Radiance power, while Shroud was in a miraculous state where he was no longer bound to the Laws.
For Reneedol, all of Shroud's abilities were currently unfamiliar and couldn't be immediately grasped.
— — -this was the only chance to kill her!
The intense black flames followed the scythe and slashed down.
"No — —" Atley uttered in despair.
All of a sudden, the black flames in the sky disappeared.
All the supernatural phenomena had disappeared.
A single person stood in front of Gu Qing Shan, blocking the black scythe.
Shroud.
He spat up some blood and spoke with difficulty: "Rhode, don't kill Reneedol"
Gu Qing Shan froze.
Scarlet loudly called out: "Shroud, take a good look, the two of them abandoned you, but now they're plotting against you — —"
Before she could finish, a grunt resounded. The thick stench of blood filled the air.
Scarlet froze, unable to say anything else.
Shroud also turned around.
— — at some point, Reneedol had escaped from her restraints and stabbed Atley's heart with a dagger.
"Reneedol!"
Atley called out, raised his hand, and manifested a howling blue light.
Reneedol threw the dagger away and screamed: "Shroud, save me!"
Shroud rushed forward without hesitation, opened the Book of Prophesized Destinies, and unleashed a halberd made of pure gold.
The halberd flashed and sent Atley flying.
After that, Shroud spat up some blood.
Reneedol hurriedly caught him, sobbing as she said: "It was Atley who forced me to leave you, if I didn't listen to him, he would have killed you!"
Shroud nodded, then struggled to reply: "It's good that you're fine …"
Gu Qing Shan's expression turned grim.
Shroud was clearly at the most crucial moment of his recovery, but he still did everything he could to stop me and send Atley flying.
— — this was Reneedol's charm!
Gu Qing Shan's figure flashed and flew forward, landing on the edge of a cliff several hundred meters away.
He looked down to see that Atley had just fallen to the bottom of the cliff.
Gu Qing Shan climbed down the cliff and quickly landed next to Atley.
— — Atley was stabbed in the chest, then sent flying by Shroud's full power. He was currently tumbling down the cliff, barely breathing.
"Atley …" Gu Qing Shan crouched down next to him and called out in a low voice.
Atley appeared a bit confused, allowing blood to flow out of his mouth.
"Atley!"
Gu Qing Shan silently infused spirit energy into his body.
Atley's body trembled, then regained his senses.
He abruptly grabbed Gu Qing Shan's hand.
"Rhode, I … I've been bewitched …"
His eyes regained clarity as tears of regret flowed from them.
His love for Reneedol seemed to have completely disappeared from his body.
Gu Qing Shan pursed her lips tightly, unable to say anything.
Atley sobbed: "Rhode … I've always … considered you two brothers"
Gu Qing Shan held his hand tightly and whispered: "Don't think about anything else, we've always considered you as our brother"
"Then … Reneedol …" Atley hesitantly said.
Gu Qing Shan's voice became even softer: "No one will blame you, I'll call Shroud here in a bit, we'll all sit together and talk things over, we'll still be good brothers"
Atley heaved a sigh of relief and a relieved smile appeared on his face.
He stopped talking.
Gu Qing Shan silently looked at him.
This young man had always been envious of Shroud's strength, longing to become stronger.
This young man, no matter how afraid he was, had never abandoned his companions, and had even made a bed for Shroud.
But now, he's dead.
Dead to Reneedol's charm and manipulation.
Gu Qing Shan closed her eyes.
A second later, she abruptly vanished. …
On the other side.
Reneedol hugged Shroud and asked in concern: "How are your wounds?"
Shroud shook his head: "The most serious wounds have already healed, I was a bit heavy-handed just now, I wonder if Atley — –"
Reneedol sobbed: "I don't know what got into him, but he wanted to kill me just now, so I had no choice but to act first"
Shroud's lips twitched, seemingly wanting to say something.
All of a sudden, a chill appeared in Reneedol's heart.
A deep sense of danger caused her to shiver.
This was something she had never experienced before.
Shroud also felt it.
The two of them looked towards a place not too far away.
Only to see a stranger standing on top of a rock.
He was wearing a pure-white mask with a pair of eerie eyes, one black and one red.
He was holding a sword in his hand, completely motionless, without any killing intent or presence. His entire body was blank, as if he didn't exist at all.
But looking closely at him, one couldn't help but break out in cold sweat, as if they were looking at some sort of monster that they had never seen before.
"Red Wraith!"
Reneedol exclaimed in shock.
As soon as she said that, Shroud who was in her arms had already disappeared.
Reneedol was shocked.
This was [Shadow Shift] — —
Space had clearly been sealed by the Law Behemoths, so how could he still move so quickly!
Reneedol attacked without hesitation, only to find that the golden halberd of light she unleashed had actually struck herself.
A second later.
It was gone in an instant.
The victor had been decided.
A chilling sensation enveloped Reneedol.
At the very last moment, she saw Red Wraith's mask appear in front of her eyes.
His sword had pierced deeply into her neck, causing her to be unable to utter a single word.
At the very next moment.
"Let her go!"
Shroud roared.
Red Wraith abruptly raised Reneedol towards Shroud.
"Don't move, if you move, she'll die" Red Wraith said.
Shroud had no choice but to stay still.
Red Wraith paused for a split second, then leaned close to Reneedol's ear and spoke in a hoarse voice: "Being unscrupulous, other than you, I'm also capable of that"
He raised his sword.
Reneedol felt the world spinning around her.
The world turned dark.
