Chapters 967 and 968: Leave me a whole corpse.
A black figure, bathed in the silvery moonlight, slowly descended from the void to a spot not far from the thorns.
His deep purple eyes were fixed on the thorns, one hand behind his back and the other holding the Evil Dragon Bone Scythe, his whole body exuding a terrifyingly cold killing intent.
Upon arriving, Ye Fei's expression changed from indifference to surprise the moment she saw Li Yuan: "...Li?"
How did he end up here?
Seeing that Ye Fei was safe and sound, Li Yuan's cold expression softened slightly, and then he turned his gaze to Jing Ji.
Thorn raised her eyelids to glance at him, then coldly curled her lips into a smile: "Nothing ventured, nothing gained? I see... I see!"
"Li Yuan, you are not seriously poisoned at all. You two plotted against me and set a trap long ago, just waiting for me to fall into it without warning, right?"
Li Yuan opened his mouth and said, "There was no scheming, and no trap."
"It's all because of your overconfidence. Thorn, from the very beginning when you were trying to seize power, you should have understood that you would only lose this game miserably."
Blood trickled down the thorny limbs and joints, and his wicked and demonic face turned pale and fragile from the excessive blood loss. "Li Yuan, Li Yuan, I have fought for so many years... but I still can't beat you. I am so unwilling."
Li Yuan slowly raised the Evil Dragon Bone Scythe in his hand, its sharp blade gleaming coldly as he aimed it at Jing Ji's throat, his eyes icy: "If you want to fight me, I can even give you a quick death. But you shouldn't have laid a hand on my woman."
Thorn curled her lips into a smile: "So, you're saying this is... a fit of rage for a beauty?"
Li Yuan said expressionlessly, "She is not my love interest, but my fiancée."
"So be it..." Thorn closed her eyes helplessly. "The victor is king, the loser is villain. I accept it."
After saying that, he opened his eyes again with a whoosh, and with a forceful movement, he swiftly and decisively pulled his hand away from the Soul-Locking Silk!
Blood and flesh, along with the Soul-Locking Silk, splattered out. Thorns coldly stared at Li Yuan, then plunged his hand into his own chest without hesitation!
With a muffled groan, Thorn fell to the ground, blood trickling from the corner of his lips. He raised his eyes, which were gradually dimming: "For the sake of me being your subordinate... give me... a whole corpse..."
As soon as he finished speaking, the thorns ceased to grow, and only a pair of crimson eyes remained fixed on the direction where Li Yuan was, their focus completely lost.
He ultimately chose suicide rather than die at the hands of his arch-enemy, whom he had fought for for so many years but still could not defeat.
Li Yuan narrowed his eyes.
When Ye Fei saw him slowly put away the Evil Dragon Bone Scythe, she thought he really intended to leave Thorn a complete corpse—
Wow!
A black flame flew from Li Yuan's fingertip and shot onto Thorn's corpse. In an instant, Thorn's corpse was engulfed by the black flame.
Before long, the corpse was burned by black flames until not even bones remained.
"I never leave a traitor with a whole corpse."
Li Yuan cast a cold, mocking glance at the gradually dissipating black flames.
Should we leave a whole corpse for a traitor who plotted to seize power and harmed his fiancée?
Not only will their bodies be left intact, but their souls will also be annihilated, never to be reincarnated again!
Li Yuan walked over and took Ye Fei's hand: "Are you hurt?"
Ye Fei shook her head: "No, but what about you? Why are you here?"
Li Yuan slightly raised his lips: "When I went to the Demon Realm to find you last time, I left a communication stone for your attendant."
Ye Fei subconsciously looked at A Zi—she had just disappeared suddenly, and A Zi must have been frantic with worry, which was why she had sent a telepathic message to Li Yuan while searching for her…
Ye Fei tightened her grip on his fingers and smiled, "I'm so glad you're thinking of me like this."
