Chapter 584 - The Wrong Script (1/2)

The lower half of Meng Chao’s body was bound by hundreds of stone snakes formed by reinforced concrete.

He looked like he was knee deep in mud, which instantly coagulated. It turned him into a strange statue that had not yet been completed.

He struggled desperately and roared at the top of his lungs while trying to break free of the restraints, but the stone snakes acted as if they had a life of their own. They slithered rapidly around his upper body.

They wanted to crawl into his body through his orifices and fill his organs with reinforced concrete.

Meng Chao pushed the concrete creatures with his fists, and shattered pieces flew everywhere like rain.

Yet once they landed on the floor, they soon gathered together once more under Lu Siya’s control and attacked Meng Chao.

Countless small stone snakes gathered into two thick stone dragons and opened their rebar-covered mouths to bite Meng Chao’s neck.

Meng Chao spread his arms and grabbed the areas seven inches under the two stone dragons’ heads. His veins popped up, and even his eyeballs bulged out, but he did manage to stop the stone dragons from biting him.

But in the next second, he could no longer persevere.

On the surface, Lu Siya had the advantage.

However, once Su Lun observed the situation carefully, he noticed that Lu Siya was also on the verge of a collapse from exhaustion. She’d had to control tons of reinforced concrete to form stone snakes and stone dragons in their battle.

Or at least, that was how it appeared.

Her hair was in a mess, her face was pale, her skin was dry, and her thick blood vessels and tendons popped up on her skin. Her beautiful face had long since become unbearably haggard.

Her spirit flames flickered like candles in the wind. They split uncontrollably and spread around her.

Even the spirit tattoos that spread from her skin to the reinforced concrete were messy and dim. They were originally exquisite runic symbols, but now, they were no better than lousy scribbles.

This was the sign of a person losing control over their spirit energy and being on the verge of entering spirit energy deviation.

This was not a good sign.

Just as Su Lun expected, after a brief stalemate, the two vicious stone dragons that bound Meng Chao started cracking.

Shattered pieces started falling from the stone dragons like scales.

Meng Chao’s hands dug deeper into the stone dragons’ necks, as if he was about to crush the stone dragons in the next second.

Even though the victor had yet to be decided, it was clear just who was going to emerge alive.

If no external forces interfered, Meng Chao was definitely going to break free within three minutes and crush Lu Siya as well as her stone dragons.

Su Lun remained in the black smoke and watched everything coolly. There was a faint, mocking smile on his lips, as if he was sitting on a VIP seat and watching two clowns put on a low-grade performance.

He did not intend to attack. He did not care about Lu Siya and Meng Chao’s survival and took a step back, about to leave quietly.

But at that moment, he noticed a reflection on Meng Chao’s face.

Under the illumination of the burning flames around them, the reflection on Meng Chao’s face was too bright. It was as if his face was covered in oil.

He was sweating.

But there was more sweat on his face than a normal human could possibly secrete.

It was also very sticky. When it pooled around his temples and forehead, it formed a shiny shell.

Su Lun’s eyes went wide.

His mind raced, and he instantly understood everything.

He removed his disguise and lifted his mask. Then, Red Brows Su Lun walked out of the darkness with an upright stance.

“Commander Su!” Upon seeing him, Lu Siya became ecstatic. She did not even care about why he appeared here alone and immediately shouted at the top of her lungs. “I’ve already caught Meng Chao! Hurry up and assist me! The saber is under my feet! Kill him!”

Su Lun looked beside Lu Siya.

It was as she said. There was a beautiful saber surrounded by spirit flames and nine crystals embedded into it beside her.

“Alright!”

He put on an expression that said that he was going to risk his life and rushed forward to grab the crystal saber.

Meng Chao seemed to have realized that his death was imminent.

His face turned even more savage, and he bared his teeth while letting out a monstrous roar.

“Meng Chao, your death is nigh!” Su Lun shouted. He grabbed the saber and raised it high above his head. His spirit energy exploded like a volcano.

But before he could completely create his spirit energy magnetic field, the nine crystals on the saber shone with fierce light. It gathered into two electrical arcs that crept into Su Lun’s arms through the hilt, electrocuting him until his hair stood up. He twitched and fell down head first.

“Wha…”

Lu Siya was a little stunned.

Even Meng Chao stopped struggling and roaring.

It was as if something had gone wrong with the script and the director called for them to stop acting. They turned into puppets with their strings cut, and the battle sank into a strange silence.

Lu Siya turned around and stared at Su Lun’s palms in disbelief. Smoke was coming out of them.

Behind her, Meng Chao quietly broke free from the two stone dragons’ restraints.
