Wu Xiangwang once believed that having a good face meant having everything. As long as he looked good, he could completely be a vase and a carefree immortal.
Until he fell into a terrifying w...
The violent blizzard obscured the entire old district, blocking everyone's view from the strange sight.
Only one person and one ghost were staring at each other in the ice and snow.
Wu Xiangwang looked at the sharp tip of the knife against his heart, his slender fingers gripping the icy blade with an indifferent expression.
"Say what you just said again."
"Do you know what you're talking about, human?"
Xuebi's green eyes stared at Wu Xiangwang, as if to say, "If you say one wrong word, I will send you to hell."
Wu Xiangwang was not afraid at all: "Young City Lord, do you want to know where your mother is?"
He actually repeated what he had just said and added a few more words.
"I heard that the city lord left the City of Bliss half a year ago. I don't know how big this world is, nor how dangerous the outside world is.
"It seems to me that anyone who can become the lord of a city must be absolutely powerful. How could he have been away for half a year without any news?"
Xue pressed the tip of her knife forward and asked, "How did you know there had been no news from my mother for six months?"
"What on earth do you want to do, you cunning and arrogant human?"
However, Wu Xiangwang refused to give in, "Young City Lord, you should answer my question first before we can have any further communication.
If you, Young City Lord, do not want to know the City Lord's spiritual news, then there is no need for us to continue our conversation."
"After all, even though I'm arrogant and cunning, I won't gamble my life easily."
The emerald green eyes and the beautiful phoenix eyes stared at each other for a long time. Finally, Xue's voice was as cold as his name, but the content had already compromised and loosened.
"If you really knew the answer, I could stop the entire Guard from pursuing you and your companions within three days."
Wu Xiangwang nodded and shook his head after hearing His words: "Young City Lord, the sincerity I have to offer you is not enough to meet your expectations."
Xue's eyes suddenly turned cold, but she soon heard the human say, "But I can tell you something first."
"My companions and I are searching for Jax's heart."
Xue's pupils suddenly shrank, and at this moment he finally looked at Wu Xiangwang with a look of surprise and as if he was looking at him with admiration.
He put away the ice and snow blade in his hand.
However, the overwhelming snowstorm in the old district is still going on.
"You found it."
His tone was firm, and then he repeated with a sneer, "I wonder what Jax's expression would be if he knew that the hiding place he thought was foolproof was actually found by a mere human."
But Xue's expression also became gloomy.
Because he actually had no right to mock Jax. He had been secretly looking for the place where Jax had hidden his heart since a month ago, and even followed a team of guards to patrol the city for this purpose, but in the end he found nothing.
He searched almost every area of the city, but could not find the heart of Jax.
But as to why He was looking for Jax's heart...
Xue looked at Wu Xiangwang again: "What did you see there?"
His expression was calm when he asked this question, but only he himself knew the kind of uneasiness and doubt he felt.
He expected to hear an answer, but instinctively rejected that answer.
Unfortunately, the humans on the other side would never treat Him with respect and obedience like the monsters in the City of Bliss, nor would they avoid saying things that He hated to hear.
He even seemed to be very happy to see humans in strange and painful situations, so Xue heard this person say: "I saw two huge hearts."
!!!!!!
Under Xue's incredulous gaze, which seemed about to explode, Wu Xiangwang finished what he was going to say: "One is as crystal clear as ice, and the other is like a yellow quartz crystal mixed with impurities."
Xue closed her eyes.
At this time, the blizzard in the entire old city suddenly became more violent and fierce, and countless dilapidated houses were turned into ruins by ice and snow.
"Where are they?" Xue looked at Wu Xiangwang and asked word by word, almost gritting her teeth: "Where are those two hearts?!"
At this point, there was no need for Wu Xiangwang to say anything more. Xue now only wanted to kill.
But Wu Xiangwang did not tell Xue directly. He spoke to the furious Young City Lord:
"Young City Lord, please make a pact with me."
"Make a vow that is recognized by the world and will bring great punishment if violated."
"You helped us kill Jax."
"We'll take you to rescue your mother."
"Then, you must let all humans out of the city."
Xue's expression was extremely gloomy at this moment, but Wu Xiangwang's words still made her sneer: "Who do you think you are? How dare you sign a contract with me and dream of letting all humans leave the city?!"
But Wu Xiangwang sat in the ice and snow with an expression that was unprecedentedly cold and powerful:
"Young City Lord. Let me say it again."
"Make a pact with me. You kill Jax, and we'll take you to rescue your mother. Then, we'll let all humans out of the city."
"I'm just an ordinary human. Not some powerful or noble weirdo."
"But now you have to compromise with me, an ordinary person."
"You don't have to agree. My friends and I will have to hide in disgrace under Jax's rule. But you and your mother will only suffer more than us!"
"Young City Lord, there's something we humans say that you may not have heard."
"The situation is stronger than people."
"You have no choice when facing me now."
The long ice and snow sword once again slashed fiercely at the arrogant human sitting on the high tower.
But this time, the long sword was held tightly in the human's hand and could not move forward at all.
"Or die together."
"Or sign a contract."
Wu Xiangwang suddenly found that the long ice and snow knife in his hand had sharply scratched his palm. After the blood fell, it was frozen into unknown blood-colored lines by the ice and snow.
Then, the long ice knife also slashed through Xue's palm, and the unknown blood-colored lines turned into two on the left and right.
Finally, the blood-colored ice crystals came together to form the shape of a hexagram.
Xue's eyes were filled with unspeakable emotions at this moment. "He" said coldly, "No human has ever proactively requested to sign a contract with a strange creature."
"Do you know why?"
"Because, in this strange world, there is only one trustworthy contract."
"That is, both parties swear to flow their respective powers into the fatal source of the other's origin, restraining each other with their lives."
"However, mutual restraint can only be signed by two monsters of equal strength, or with a relatively small difference in strength. Otherwise, the weaker party will be completely devoured by the stronger party the moment the contract is established!"
Xue's eyes were fixed on Wu Xiangwang. He wanted to see the panicked expression of this human.
"I hope you won't die in front of me when the contract is established."
Wu Xiangwang really didn't expect that the contract in the strange world would be such a terrible thing that would involve a fight between strength and life.
But he also felt that such a contract was trustworthy enough so that he wouldn't be stabbed in the back.
However, when his blood collided with Xue's blood, he suddenly felt a sharp pain in his heart and the sea of consciousness between his eyebrows. The pain made his face pale and cold sweat flowed down in an instant.
For a moment, Wu Xiangwang felt as if he was about to be killed by that invisible force. But Wu Xiangwang finally gritted his teeth and held on.
Even when he saw a drop of melted snow flowing down Xue's forehead, he chuckled again.
"...Look, I'm alive."
"And you, too, are not unscathed."
"You are very strong."
"I'm not weak either."
Even in the future, I will definitely become stronger.
Xue could also feel the severe pain coming from her right eye.
He was even a little surprised at this human's... excessive tenacity.
But in the end, He just looked deeply at this human and said nothing else.
"Where is my mother?"
This time, Wu Xiangwang gave the answer.
"One hundred meters below the ball castle is the heart of your mother and Jax."
"One hundred meters down, your mother is imprisoned."
"Also, there are many human, even eerie, beating hearts where Jax keeps his heart."
"I have reason to suspect that a powerful monster in the city has become his lackey. If you want to take action, you must bring your most trusted confidant with you."
"Finally, that place is protected by a high-level energy barrier. We can't break it. You need to find a way."
Upon hearing this, Xue closed her eyes, turned around and disappeared in the wind and snow.
"When the dance starts tonight, I will take action."
"Don't interfere or cause any trouble."
Wu Xiangwang snorted.
It’s hard to say who will be the interference and who will be the burden by then!
Eight o'clock.
The City of Peace seemed particularly dark tonight, making the bright lights of the most magnificent ball castle in the city even more brilliant.
This was the first dance party that Jax attended after recovering from his injuries after being assassinated by Liusha.
Nature is more lively and crazy.
Jax stood in the center of the dance floor, looking at the weird people below who were looking at him with fanatical and submissive eyes, and felt extremely satisfied.
He thought that soon the whole city would be looking at him with submission and fanaticism!
He is about to become the youngest marquis!!
Jax smiled and opened his arms, then shouted under all the strange gazes:
"Everyone, have fun! The City of Peace will not panic and change just because of a few wanted criminals! Those villains will eventually be caught and executed!"
"Let's dance for victory in advance!!"
Roar——
Amid the frantic shouts of the monsters, Jax was ready to dance.
However, at this moment, a huge noise with a vibration that seemed to be able to shatter the earth came from under the feet of the monsters.
The sound drowned out the noise of the party and the surrounding dance music, leaving the strange creatures in the castle looking at each other in bewilderment.
Jax's expression instantly turned into one of extreme horror.
He roared suddenly and his body transformed into a strange primitive form. His huge claws, with immense power, smashed the ground beneath his feet.
A hundred-meter-deep chasm appeared under His feet.
Then the huge vicious dog with brown and yellow mottled fur pounced down, trying to get his heart back as quickly as possible.
Just at this moment, another terrifying loud noise came from the ground.
This time, the entire earth of the City of Bliss was shaking.
Amidst Jax's roar of immense resentment and terror, all the monsters and humans in the City of Bliss felt the silent roar coming from underground.
Then, a huge white monster shattered the earth, flattened the magnificent castle, and reappeared in the world with endless ice, snow and madness.
"roar--"
Under His feet, there was a brown heart with cracks left by His stepping on it.
“Ahhhhhhhhh—”
"My heart! Winter! I will devour you completely—"
Then the huge white monster and the yellow monster collided with each other with a loud bang.
