Chapter 765: Singular Annihilation (I) (2/2)
The Lich King’s high-pitched voice rang out, “You say you’re not going to kill us all. Are you saying that Austin Griffin will spare all of us once it awakens?”
Long Haochen said coldly, “I don’t know what Haoyue had done to you all in his past life, I only know that you’ve always been targeting him since he was born. If it weren’t for a coincidence, he might have died to your hands a long time ago.”
The Lich King’s voice became even higher, “That’s because you don’t know what it did in the past. You don’t know just how terrifying it is once it fully awakens.”
Long Haochen smiled indifferently, “I only know it’s my companion, my friend. You should be able to tell that if you keep attacking us, there is no chance for you to achieve victory. You’ll only be killed by us. Even if Haoyue wants to deal with you after it awakens, it’s better than dying right now. You should be able to determine what is for the best.”
The Knight of Judgement’s voice was rather strange. It was slightly hoarse, yet also slightly deep, “Austin Griffin’s your companion? Aren’t you afraid of suffering from the backlash once it awakens? You aren’t weak, but against Austin Griffin that’s truly awakened, it’s nothing.”
Long Haochen said coldly, “That’s my problem, not for you to worry about. However, I can tell you that Haoyue’s only returned to this realm because it wants to evolve. In the future, it’ll spend most of its time by my side, accompanying me in my realm. If it’s really like what you said that this is tis final evolution, then it might never have to return to this realm again.”
The Knight of Judgement of the Dead asked in some disbelief, “Are you saying that it won’t ever come back again?”
Long Haochen said, “I can’t guarantee you, but I can say that if you leave here right now and stop targeting Haoyue in the future, it won’t target you in the future either.”
Cai’er had gradually entered a state of comprehension. Coupled with losing control earlier, she had become incapacitated from battle, apart from maintaining her domain. Even though Long Haochen still had cards up his sleeve, he really did not the battle to devolve into a life or death struggle. He could not afford a single death in the Bright Glimmer of Hope.
“How is that possible? Do you have the right to make promises for Austin Griffin?” The Lich King’s voice was filled with doubt.
The mask on Long Haochen’s face slowly rose up as the nine gems on his crown flashed with beautiful light. He seemed like a king who reigned over everything.
“Here is my right.” He pointed at his forehead. Afterwards, nine streaks of golden symbols slowly appeared under his control. An obscure purple also appeared in the air, connecting him with Hao Yue.
“What’s this?” The Knight of Judgement of the Dead leapt in fright, while the other undead kings immediately fell silent as well. Even the Bone Dragon King transformed from its armour form and appeared beside the Knight of Judgement of the Dead. The same emotion appeared in the soulfire in their eyes.
“A- a blood pact? How is that possible? Austin Griffin actually formed a blood pact with a human?” The Lich King even began to stutter from pure shock.
The other undead kings experienced the same amount of shock as her. In that moment, the world of black and red actually descended into silence.
Long Haochen asked sternly, “Do I possess the right now?”
The Knight of Judgement of the Dead did not reply immediately. Instead, he gathered with the other undead kings quickly. They were enveloped by a grey haze. Clearly, they were discussing something.
Long Haochen did not worry at all. Buying time was his best option. Both Haoyue and Cai’er needed time to evolve and comprehend respectively.
The Bright Glimmer of Hope also saw the change in the situation. Aside from Yang Wenzhao, Duan Yi and the twelve holy guards, everyone gathered by Long Haochen’s side. Under the assistance of Han Yu’s Spiritual Stove of Light’s Blessing, he had recovered around seventy or eighty percent. Although Chen Ying’er and Wang Yuanyuan’s situation was slightly worse, they could still keep fighting. Dowsed by the light of eternity, they did not feel restrained by the realm anymore, allowing them to slowly recover the exhaustion that had accumulated earlier.
