Chapter 2078 - If Only He’s Still Alive (2/2)

Zhan Kong proceeded up the stairs. His intimidating eyes were fixed on the Sacred City Mages.

“Death only consists of temporary fear and immediate pain. No matter what you turned into after your deaths, the petty glory you fought for is nothing compared to the torture you will suffer in Hell. Your descendants might treat you as respectable ancestors, but you will realize that if you were given another chance, you would never trade your lives for petty glory. It’s good to be alive, since the pain after death will last for thousands of years!”

Zhan Kong’s voice reached everyone. It was advice from the Undead Emperor to the living!

The time of happiness was always short, but the years of pain were lengthy!

Zhan Kong told them the pain would last for thousands of years, but the truth was, the pain would last for more than ten thousand years!

These people who were self-proclaimed as Saints had never been to the Kingdom of Death, nor had they experienced what it would feel like to be one of the living dead. Therefore, Zhan Kong was cordially giving them a chance to experience the pain of the living dead!

The darkness and the faces brimming with pain represented their sorrow, misery, anger, and hatred of the living world. These faces would select those with experiences similar to them and place them in a dream, forcing them to experience the sufferings they had gone through.

Everyone had some heart-breaking experiences in the past. The faces would force them to recall those painful experiences again!

Most regretfully, these painful experiences which most people would not want to go through again accompanied the dead every night! Humans needed sleep to forget their painful pasts, but sleeping was the same as experiencing their deepest sorrows to the undead!

One day, two days, one year, two years, one century, two centuries, one thousand years, two thousand years… there was no end to it!

Was it even worth it to fight to the death for mere glory? Was it worth it to die just to make their ancestors proud?

Zhan Kong continued up the stairs. He was not only planning to overwhelm one of the strongest humans, Michael, with his strength, but he was going to trample on their beliefs, too!

Those who respected one’s decision to sacrifice their lives were treating the person as a nobody. If they really cared about the person, they would only hope the person was well and alive. They would be overwhelmed with sorrow if the person died.

Therefore, being well and alive was the best way to respect the people around you!

If Zhan Kong was given the choice, he would choose to be a coward.

He just wanted to keep his promise. Someone was waiting for him. He would just show up as he had promised. She liked the way he looked at her, so he would look at her for the rest of his life.

Not like his current situation!

Nothing like his current situation, where he was neither human nor demon!

It was painful to recall his past and meet the woman. He could no longer feel his heart pounding heavily when they exchanged glances, nor could he experience the warmth when hugging one another, let alone more intimate interactions!

He did not show up at the Sacred City like a hero riding the clouds. He was a demon, a vengeful spirit. He was only bothering the woman whom he loved when he was alive. He was just getting his revenge.

If only he was still alive, none of this would have happened.

These idiots!

They had no idea how jealous he was of the living. He was trying so hard to withhold his urge, the urge to kill every living person on Earth!
