Chapter 221
"If you died here..." Jin Zirui smiled playfully, "Jiang Hanyu would be very sad, right?"
"But it doesn't matter. As long as you die, he will be next."
"Yitu, tell me..." The Night King's smile widened. "For someone so proud, would he be so distraught after losing his spouse that he would wish for death?"
Every word the Night King said was heart-wrenching, but Yi Tu was not angered by him.
Even if he had grasped Yi Tu's weakness, it was just like Ou Cheng who struggled frantically even though he knew he would die.
Xu Heng is his only wish to return alive, how could the Night King not know that?
The real torture is not how much physical pain you give to that person, but when he is clearly in despair, you give him hope that he can see but cannot grasp.
Hang him, hurt him, and deprive him, until his soul is crushed and his will is broken.
Jin Zirui is so good at these methods, it seems like he is a cold-blooded devil born this way.
Yitu looked at the smiling man in front of him expressionlessly and said:
"You like pain, don't you? Do you enjoy the process of dying?"
"Watching those people prostrate themselves at your feet, wailing and begging for mercy, their snot and tears a mixture, their faces so distorted that even their loved ones couldn't recognize them."
Hearing these words, the smile on the Night King's face faded, and he couldn't help but frowned and said:
"What do you want to say?"
Yitu looked at him with a bit of pity in his eyes and said softly: "Oh my god."
"You enjoy torturing others, so you can see a reflection of yourself in them, right?"
As soon as Yitu finished speaking, the man's face suddenly changed.
"Betrayed by friends, betrayed by family, and subjected to endless insults from enemies, yet because of my immortality, I am unable to end my miserable life."
Although Yi Tu's eyes were compassionate and sympathetic, Jin Zirui couldn't breathe under his gaze.
Seeing this, Shi Ning couldn't help but wanted to take action, but was stopped by the man.
"Who told you?" Jin Zirui asked in a deep voice.
Yitu smiled faintly, "You already have the answer in your mind, don't you?"
"Ji, Lei." The Night King almost spat out the name with gritted teeth, and a strong murderous intent flashed in his eyes.
But he quickly adjusted himself, and all the embarrassment and confusion were wiped off his face.
"Are you sympathizing with me?" Jin Zirui sneered, "That's ridiculous."
"What could Ji Lei's cousin know? The person who betrayed me has already rotted in the ground, and I am still alive and well."
The Night King looked at him with disdain, "You don't understand. You are a fledgling who has been growing up under the protection of the Spade King since the beginning. What do you know?"
"What do you think this game is? Who do you think you are? Do you think you're the savior who interprets truth, goodness, and beauty?"
The man's eyes were cold and he said softly:
“What I experienced is the journey that most people should take.”
"What I experienced is the truest portrayal of this game."
"And you... are nothing but a stupid, ridiculous, damn fool."
Yitu smiled, "So, you are like this, living in darkness, you are not worthy of being loved, not worthy of being followed..."
"Not worth mentioning."
As soon as he finished speaking, Shi Ning screamed in retort with red eyes:
"You're talking nonsense! You don't know anything at all!"
Yitu's heart skipped a beat. He turned his head to look at her without saying anything, as if waiting for her next words.
However, the Night King spoke before she could:
"Needless to say, only the winner is qualified to define the rules..."
"And I am the only winner!"
As soon as these words came out, the Night King's figure rushed towards the two of them like a ghost.
Facing Jin Zirui's attack, Huasan subconsciously stood in front of Yitu, and a flash of scarlet appeared in his left eye.
The moment he activated the God-level card, black cracks crawled all over his handsome face like snakes.
The man's straight back was covered with cyst-like bumps, and in the blink of an eye, these fist-sized bumps burst.
The devil's claws, as slender as spider legs, were able to drill out, continuously growing outwards, becoming increasingly thick and terrifying.
When all six demon arms grew out, Yitu could no longer see Huasan's face.
The man's face was covered with dense scales, like an ugly and heavy mask, with only a pair of scarlet eyes staring at the world indifferently.
The six devil claws behind him moved at will, and under Jin Zirui's powerful attack, the flower umbrella didn't even move a step.
The moment the black flame claw on the left was raised, it pulled the Night King three meters away.
Huasan's gaze lightly passed over the evil lady Shi Ning, and the red flame claws on the right side attacked her at a speed that ordinary people could not match.
Shi Ning subconsciously summoned the Night Fury's Fang and raised his hand to barely block the attack.
The next second, her face began to turn pale uncontrollably.
The red flames burned her cheeks and hair, and the smell of burnt protein filled her nostrils.
The increasingly heavy force forced her to grit her teeth and give it her all.
But her power was like an ant carrying a mountain in front of the demon, leaving her no room for resistance.
He felt that his wrist was gradually losing its grip on the Night Fury's Fang, and under the weight of gravity, his bones seemed to make crisp crackling sounds beside his ears.
Shi Ning bit her lips until they bled, and she had to slide the Night Fury's fangs to get away.
When all her strength was gone, Shi Ning fell to her knees on the ground, unable to hold on, and the trees behind her were unable to move and were completely shattered.
She gasped and looked up at the demon in front of her, fear in her eyes.
But the moment these emotions surged, she swallowed them back.
She knew that Huasan's demonized state was only temporary. Once they survived the strengthening period, Huasan and Yitu would have no choice but to wait for death.
On the other side, the Night King also climbed up from the ground nimbly.
The two looked at each other, and without saying anything, Jin Zirui rushed towards the demon god first, and Shi Ning followed closely behind.
If you want to kill Yi Tu, you must first get rid of the flower umbrella blocking your way.
The Night King is immortal, and he is not afraid of any harm caused by the devil's claws, even if the pain and trauma are real.
Three figures were entangled in a mad fight, and the black and red claws were waving in the air to the extreme.
Huasan wants to kill the Night King, or rather, he wants to use the devil as a god-level card to kill one of them.
Of course he knew that his time was limited, so every move Huasan made was fatal.
However, the Night King could not be killed. Shi Ning was petite and agile, and she was able to dodge most of his attacks.
Even if he was hit and knocked to the ground, he could get up faster without waiting for the flower umbrella to deliver a fatal blow.
Her hands had been burned into a bloody mess by the flames, with no skin on the surface, but she still held the Night Fury's Fang firmly and refused to let go.
Moreover, Shi Ning's body was obviously on the verge of damage and collapse, but she was still able to join the battle, and her speed was faster and faster.
While Huasan was surprised, Yitu also discovered the hidden secret between the two.
Shi Ning seemed to share some of Jin Zirui's immortal qualities.
Although she cannot repair herself like the Night King, she is unkillable like the Night King.
Even at the end, Huasan stared at her and waved his magic hands wildly, almost tearing her into pieces.
However, Shi Ning managed to survive under the special protection of the Night King.
She knelt on a scorched earth, naked, her exposed skin all burnt, revealing the nakedness of the earth.
There is still a breath left.
Huasan couldn't believe it, and Yitu's face was gloomy.
Seeing that the Demon God's strengthening time was about to end, Huasan's movements in fighting with the Night King became increasingly sluggish.
Jin Zirui finally gained the upper hand in a real sense. He used brute force to tear off the flower umbrella's magic hand, and blood gushed out.
However, this was not enough. When the Flower Umbrella was knocked to the ground, the Night King's knee hit his abdomen hard.
Jin Zirui used both hands to pull off the mask covering the demon's face. In an instant, Huasan's screams resounded throughout the forest.
That was not a mask, but the flesh and blood growing on Huasan's face. The moment it was pulled open, the skin and flesh were peeled off together with it.
The man's hands were covered in blood. He licked some of it with his tongue, and rarely made any comment.
At this time, Shi Ning also noticed Yi Tu walking towards them, and she smiled.
"Want to save him? How can you save him, you coward who can only hide behind others!"
Shi Ning clenched the Night Fury's fangs again, and fierceness appeared in her black and white eyes.
"Don't kill him."
At this time, the Night King looked up at Yi Tu, his eyes filled with undisguised desire.
"He is mine, and I must dominate him."
Upon hearing this, Yitu simply uttered two words coldly, "Disgusting."
The man didn't care at all. He smiled and said in a very relaxed tone:
"My dear, I really like seeing you pretending to be noble but helpless."
"Fu Hengyi has done so much for you, yet you can only hide behind him like a piece of trash."
"He's going to die, and you can't change the facts."
Yitu nodded, his tone exceptionally calm:
"Yeah, he knew he would die here."
"And I just need to kill you, then I can go out and report to the others."
Jin Zirui was stunned and the smile on his face deepened.
"My dear, are you saying this to please me?"
"In the face of death, become as hypocritical and selfish as I am, abandon your hypocrisy, and I don't think I will be willing to kill you."
"We could have been good friends. I'm immortal, and you..."
"You possess an almost immortal spirit. We are a match made in heaven."
The more the man spoke, the crazier his expression became. He moved closer to Yi Tu and even reached out to touch Yi Tu's shoulder.
"So you will let me go?" Yitu tilted his head and looked at him, his eyes clear and bright.
The smile on Jin Zirui's face grew deeper and deeper, almost tinged with cruelty. His hands, stained with the blood of the umbrella, tightly grasped Yi Tu's neck and sighed:
"What a shame, it's too late."
Yitu was not surprised, and did not even struggle too much, allowing the man to tighten his fingers and deprive him of his breath.
It was not until his eyes went black and numb that Yitu released the pain card in a trance.
While his consciousness was blurred, he was thrown to the ground by a huge brute force. What he heard in his ears was the man's painful curses and Shi Ning's screams.
"Go and kill Fu Hengyi. You don't deserve my pity at all."
"Humble bugs will always be the lowest of the low!"
Yitu was twitching on the ground, breathing heavily with his mouth open. He felt someone approaching, although the footsteps were a little light.
He was pulled up from the ground, and the next second he was slapped in the face, making stars appear in his eyes.
Jin Zirui's fierce voice rang in his ears, "Do you think I'm stupid enough to let you kill me with your mental attack again?"
"Yitu, you underestimate me too much."
"You did find my weakness, but because of your own incompetence, you killed everyone."
"Xu Heng is like this, Fu Hengyi is like this, and Jiang Hanyu will be no exception in the future!"
Yitu only felt a loud noise in his ears. He lifted his swollen eyelids with great effort and saw the exasperated face in front of him. He forced a smile.
"Really? I don't believe it."
The man was stunned and rushed forward with anger like fire.
However, before he could make any move, Yitu suddenly opened his eyes wide and large streams of blood gushed out of his mouth.
His face was corroded by an unknown substance, and his body began to melt at such a fast speed that he was about to disappear before his eyes.
Jin Zirui didn't understand what was going on. He tried to grab something with his hands, but he couldn't grab anything.
"What the hell is going on?"
At this time, Shi Ning's voice, mixed with some doubts, also sounded.
"How could this be the Queen of Hearts' ID card?"
The Night King was startled and turned suddenly to look at her.
The Night Fury's fangs pierced a thin card, and the face of the Queen of Hearts disappeared on it.
The man was extremely angry. He had never thought that Yitu would be such a coward. In order to escape torture, he actually swapped their identity cards in advance.
He never thought that Yi Tu might be trying to protect Fu Hengyi, or had other intentions. He only knew that his only pleasure was gone.
He wanted to burst out cursing, scolding Yi Tu for being cowardly, scolding Shi Ning for being careless, and venting his anger as he pleased.
However, when he opened his mouth, large streams of blood gushed out of his throat.
Jin Zirui covered his mouth in disbelief, and he turned around with all his strength to look.
Those who should have perished under the erosion of the Night Fury's fangs did not completely disappear.
A red light protected his heart, even though his figure was so weak and blurry.
Yitu is not dead, but his consciousness is gradually collapsing and disintegrating.
The whole process was painless, even silent.
He didn't understand, and he would never understand until his death, why death came upon him.
Jin Zirui's death was like a flash in the pan. Shi Ning looked at this scene in extreme shock. Before she could react, Huasan, who had been lying motionless on the ground, suddenly stood up and jumped, knocking her to the ground.
Without any hesitation, he grabbed Shi Ning's head with both hands, twisted it hard, and with a click, another life was gone.
Under the protection of Jack of Hearts, Yitu looked at the standing flower umbrella through the weak light.
If they followed their previous agreement, Yitu would kill the Night King in exchange for his life.
What Huasan has to do is to give the Night King's identity card to Yitu.
But men didn't.
He stood there, looking at Yi Tu with a cold gaze. His voice was not loud, but loud enough for Yi Tu to hear.
He said, "The final death toll has not yet come in."
Yitu knew that as smart as he was, how could he not have anticipated this?
The Night King died, Shi Ning also died, and no one had reached the death toll they needed.
There is no solution to this concern.
The death toll can only be reflected on him. As long as Fu Heng is ruthless enough, he doesn't need to do anything.
He just had to wait there quietly for a while, waiting for the protection time of the Jack of Hearts to pass, and waiting for him to die completely.
He will get his reward, leave here alive, and make up the most hypocritical story in the most sorrowful tone.
No one would question it, no one would disbelieve it, not even Jiang Hanyu.
Yitu is waiting, waiting for the judgment of fate.
