Seeing this,
Lucifer fell silent instantly. Then, he shook his head helplessly and said,
"Don't tell me that the life of a demon like me isn't comparable to those powerless weaklings? With your current strength, what can you do even if you let them go …?"
"You and Gabriel were just an accident. My original target was Na Senwei." Liu Xiaojiang's emotions came and went quickly as though he had already guessed that Lucifer was just trying his best to fight for the outcome of the islanders and didn't want them to disappear from the world with him.
"Is there no room for discussion at all?" Lucifer asked again, unwilling to give up.
"… Even if you continue to stall for time, you won't be able to save them from me." Liu Xiaojiang didn't answer such a stupid question. Instead, he looked at Lucifer, who had returned to normal, and reminded him with interest.
"After all, Gabriel even burned her life force and used some strange tools. In the end, she didn't achieve the outcome that she wanted …"
"So …"
Liu Xiaojiang gazed at Lucifer with a complicated glint in his eyes. "There's no need to be humble for those foolish people. For someone like you … I actually don't want you to die in such a way without dignity."
"Although her thoughts and ideals are definitely incompatible, the choice that Gabriel made previously showed me the dignity of an old god. Even in the end, she didn't feel any despair …"
"Hmph." Lucifer snorted. "She's just a person who doesn't starve. If she really had the dignity of an old god, she wouldn't have chosen to go against me …"
"Regarding this matter …" Liu Xiaojiang suddenly thought of something. "Previously, you said that Gabriel's existence was a means used by those ordinary people to restrain you. But in my eyes … her strength seems to be far inferior to a demon like you."
"She was once the one who was closest to God …" Lucifer still harbored a trace of hope for Liu Xiaojiang, so even if he was betraying Gabriel, who was no longer an enemy, he didn't hide anything.
"Therefore …"
"Gabriel used to be the one with the most tricks up her sleeves and there were many abilities that we've never heard of. So … If it's someone like Gabriel, we can't accurately measure her strength with conventional standards."
"Furthermore …"
"She used to be the old deity who received the most power of faith. But even I don't know why the energy in her body could remain at the lowest level for so long after receiving so much faith …"
"Those strange items …" Liu Xiaojiang knew that Gabriel wasn't simple, but he didn't expect that even Lucifer would be ashamed of himself. Liu Xiaojiang had a bad feeling in his heart.
"Those are all things she made herself." Lucifer clearly knew what Liu Xiaojiang was talking about. "Especially the so-called 'horn that announces the end of the world.' She even used it to severely injure all of us in a conflict many years ago …" Lucifer said.
"Severely injuring all of your old gods at once?" Liu Xiaojiang recalled the terrifying item he had seen before, and he couldn't help but hesitate.
"So …"
"Are you sure that I'm the one who killed Gabriel, and that's why you're behaving so humbly …"
"…" Lucifer was speechless.
"I see …" Liu Xiaojiang looked at Lucifer's expression and immediately understood that his guess wasn't far from the truth. He couldn't help but sigh and shake his head.
"Sigh, Mr. Satan. The more I talk to you, the more difficult it is for you to die here. It's really a pity …"
"My death isn't regrettable …" Lucifer said humbly.
"Mr. Liu, the reason why I said so much and didn't hesitate to betray my former companions is that I hope that you can take my cooperation into consideration and let those who are struggling to survive on this island. If you're willing to let my people go, I will only bless you gratefully and not curse you …"
"Then you'd better continue cursing me," Liu Xiaojiang interrupted mercilessly.
"If your curse was really useful to me, I'm afraid that I wouldn't need to make such a humble request. I'm indeed grateful for your cooperation, but Gabriel is already dead, after all. No matter how much you say about her … what's the use?"
"You …" From the beginning to the end, Lucifer tried to sound him out and cooperated with him again and again, but in the end, he was still rejected mercilessly. At this point, Lucifer was completely speechless and felt that this might be the retribution that he deserved.
"It's good to have some worries in your heart, but at least you should think about whether these so-called worries are worth your efforts …" Liu Xiaojiang looked at Lucifer's pitch-black face and said these inexplicable words as he stepped forward.
On the other side.
Noticing that Liu Xiaojiang finally made a move and seemed to want to attack Lucifer, Windsor and Charles hurriedly got up from the ground and quickly ran to the forest in the distance.
However,
Lucifer noticed Windsor and Charles with a disheartened heart and a trace of light once again appeared in his gloomy eyes. "By the way, there's another way. You can control everyone on the island like how you controlled Windsor and the others. That way …"
"There's no need for that." Liu Xiaojiang looked at Lucifer who was still 'struggling' in front of him and shook his head with an extremely calm and gentle expression.
"Because they're not worth it at all …"
"They've lived for so many years because of you, and now they're going to disappear from this world because of you …"
"Mr. Satan, you've done enough. You're even more responsible than the average father, but it's a pity that those people can't understand and they're not worth your protection …"
"Lucifer, you're tired. You should choose to rest …"
Lucifer listened to the voice beside his ear and looked at the pair of pitch-black but seductive eyes in front of him. He felt that the life in his body was quickly slipping away. He couldn't help but smile bitterly before he closed his eyes.
"You … Are you a demon?"
"As an angel, isn't it a good ending for you to die in the hands of a demon?"
Liu Xiaojiang's body was emitting a dark aura that was far stranger than Lucifer's. Coupled with his pair of pitch-black eyes and dark golden pupils, he looked like a real demon.
"Haha … Would a demon be so gentle when facing an enemy? You're just a real liar …"
"But … thanks …"
After saying that,
Lucifer smiled and closed his eyes. The six pairs of pitch-black wings behind him also dissipated …
Liu Xiaojiang stretched out his hand to grab Lucifer's body that fell to the ground, but he realized that before he could touch his arm, Lucifer had already turned into specks of light and began to disappear quickly. Liu Xiaojiang's outstretched arm couldn't grab anything at all …
"A real liar …"
