Chapter 66 She fled, he chased, she had no way to escape.
Huali grunted and quickly used her wood-type card to heal her wound. When she looked up again, Yangliu had already turned and run away.
A cold glint flashed in her eyes, but she couldn't chase after him immediately because Soli's teleportation array was about to be completed.
"Ksitigarbha Entanglement, emerge!"
Several cracks appeared on the ground, and rock spikes, like bamboo shoots sprouting from the ground, pierced towards Suoli.
Soli stopped his hand seals and quickly retreated. After seeing who it was, his eyes turned blood red.
The word "Apple..." carries a hatred that seems to want to skin and tear it apart.
Seeing that he had conjured a blood sword out of thin air and was about to stab her, Huali quickly summoned a barrier.
After dodging the attack, she began using cards recklessly, completely disregarding the health bar that Kuku was losing.
This is your only chance.
If you kill Soli and get the star, your health will recover in no time. If you can't kill him, death is just a matter of the system doing you a favor.
Suoli was first severely injured by Wen Tingyun, and then suffered physical and mental torment from Huali. His peak Nascent Soul cultivation was no match for Huali's reckless fighting style, and he immediately spat out a mouthful of blood.
His gaze toward Huali was so malevolent it could drip water, and he struggled to his feet.
Not far away, the barrier around Wen Tingyun shattered like a mirror, struck by Wen Jin's palm, and his wheelchair suddenly slid several meters away.
Instead of pressing their advantage, Wen Jin looked in their direction.
Soli followed the Demon Lord's gaze and, in a flash, was enlightened.
No wonder Wen Tingyun treated Cuihua so harshly. If Cuihua was the Demon Lord's person from the beginning, then everything makes sense.
He had held the throne of the Seven Kings for nearly a century, and when had he ever seen the Demon Lord even glance at any woman?
At first, Soli didn't believe it and searched everywhere for beauties to send to Sunset City, but without exception, all of them had their necks twisted by Tuowu and Xiwu.
In his predicament, a cold glint flashed in Soli's eyes; whether it was true or not, a test would soon reveal the answer.
*
After the curse was lifted, Yang Liu's face was full of joy and relief at surviving a disaster.
If she had known that Cuihua's blood was so useful, she should have tried to get some from the beginning.
Why should Gao Li use this as a threat, and even have her face disfigured?
Yang Liu recalled the girl's bright eyes and white teeth that she had glimpsed just now, and jealousy and hatred clung to her like maggots.
Just then, I heard the sound of wind.
"Thousand-layered thorns, unleash!"
Soli slashed his palm and sent out three hundred and sixty blood swords flying. Taking advantage of the moment when Huali pulled up the barrier, he rushed over and grabbed Yang Liu by the neck, shouting, "Wen Jin, let me go, or I'll kill Wang Cuihua!"
Having just withstood an attack, Huali's face turned pale, and she paused upon hearing this.
Has Soli gone mad?
Wen Tingyun was still not giving up, and even set his sights on Wen Jin.
Who is Wen Jin? Don't even mention one Cuihua, he could easily crush ten Cuihuas with his head.
Even so, Karin also had some expectations in her heart.
While the larger version is indeed terrifying, they still share a revolutionary friendship forged during their time as smaller versions. Even if the Demon Lord recovers, he wouldn't discard them after using them.
*
Wen Tingyun swallowed the blood in his throat. His breakthrough to the mid-stage of the Nascent Soul realm, achieved through the Blood River, had fallen back to the early stage. He didn't even blink when he heard Suoli's words.
Although both were at the Nascent Soul stage, one was at the initial stage, while the other was close to the peak of the Nascent Soul stage.
After the Soul Returning Period, Wen Jin's cultivation level even increased!
Blood River and Thousand Machine Flesh Ganoderma were both destroyed, and the new moon hung in the sky. In the end, this game was lost by one move.
But Wen Jin did not continue his attack as he had expected. Instead, to everyone's surprise, he turned to look at Suo Li.
The magic array beneath Wen Tingyun's feet was completed, and his figure vanished in an instant.
*
He guessed right! It really was true!
As Wen Jin approached step by step, Suo Li's expression changed from initial ecstasy to confusion and finally to fear. Wait, why isn't this person stopping?
Soli said menacingly, "If you take another step forward, I'll snap her neck right now."
Wen Jin turned a deaf ear.
Nine Ghost Flames spread beneath Wen Jin's feet, and Hua Li heard the Demon Lord's emotionless voice ring out, "I hate being threatened the most."
In that instant, all the things in Chenliu City came rushing in.
Huali: "!!!" Good heavens, he definitely remembered!
In despair, Yang Liu watched as the Demon Lord descended upon her like a god, and she suddenly gave up struggling.
Why does everyone treat Cuihua differently, even though she's just an ugly slut who's good at currying favor?
If she could become Cuihua... no, she already is Cuihua now.
Perhaps there is a glimmer of hope if the Demon Lord takes pity on us.
Thinking of this, Yang Liu recalled Hua Li's usual smiles and frowns, and at the right moment let out a breathy sob, "...Save me."
Seeing her raise her blood-stained hand, Wen Jin suddenly curled his lips into a smile, "Save you?"
Upon receiving a response, Yang Liu immediately nodded, "Save me, I don't want to..."
The piercing scream drowned out the lingering echo of Yang Liu's song.
She stared blankly at the spirit fire piercing her chest, blood gushing from the corner of her mouth. Soli was with her; the spirit fire had pierced both of them simultaneously.
Ao Bai: "What a wonderful candied hawthorn skewer!"
Huali gasped, feeling a chill even though it wasn't her in the same outfit.
Under Yang Liu's incredulous gaze, Wen Jin's eyes hardened, and his tone, as cold as the snow that seals off a mountain in the dead of winter, carried a bone-chilling killing intent: "You think you're worthy?"
Yang Liu was horrified to discover that her eyes were bleeding. She tried to raise her hand but was unable to move because of the scorching heat of the Nine Spirits Netherfire.
"How dare you make such a disgusting expression with those eyes?"
Blood trickled down the willow tree's pierced chest, forming a pool on the ground. She tried to scream but couldn't make a sound.
In Yang Liu's eyes, Wen Jin, who had just been a god descending from heaven, was now like a demon. "Dare to hurt her, I will make you pay a thousand times over."
Hua Li watched helplessly as Yang Liu was slaughtered by Wen Jin, her heart pounding in her throat. "What did he just say?"
I could only barely make out a few broken syllables from that distance.
Ao Bai squinted and mimicked the Demon Lord's tone: "He said that the thing he hated most in his life was being lied to."
Huali swallowed hard and silently shrank back into the corner, sincerely suggesting, "How about... we put this wood-type card aside for now?"
It turns out that Wen Jin, when he switched to his main account, was completely different from his alternate account. Perhaps he had forgotten all his memories of his alternate account, otherwise why would he have killed "her" so decisively?
Karin's eyes were filled with the relief of surviving a disaster.
Fortunately, she didn't rush forward when Wen Jin appeared, otherwise she would be the one dead now.
But here's the problem: what about Soli?
He looked like he didn't have much life left. If she went out now, Wen Jin would definitely find her, and if she couldn't beat him, she would only get her head blown off.
But if she doesn't go out, and Suoli is killed by Wen Jin, the mission will fail and she will still die.
Huali: "It's hard to be a person, it's even harder to be a living person..."
Caught between two difficult choices, she could only peek out again, only to meet the gaze of a pair of pale golden eyes.
Karin was startled and quickly shrank her neck.
Did Wen Jin just look this way?
Before Ao Bai could speak, a loud bang suddenly came from Hua Li's feet.
The person and the cat were startled and poked their heads out again.
Soli lay on the ground covered in blood with his eyes closed. If it weren't for the rise and fall of his chest, Huali would have thought he was a corpse.
Wait, Solly?
Rosewood: !!
After a three-second moment of confusion, a glint of light flashed in her eyes!
Soli!! Was she swatted away by the Demon Lord? Of all places to fly, she had to land right at her feet. It's truly heaven helping her!!
Who wouldn't take the money when it's in their hands? Hesitating for even a second is just plain stupid!
Rock spikes burst from the ground and pierced fiercely toward Soli's heart! The moment the heart shattered, the great array on the altar vanished like ripples on water.
The system's long-absent voice sounded again.
"Mission Two: Kill the Demon King Soli. Reward: Half a star."
As the third star of the Wood-type card lit up, Huali took off running.
Mission accomplished, bye-bye!
As she turned around, the fleeting smile in Wen Jin's eyes froze, his face instantly darkening as he vanished from the spot.
