Chapter 1350 A Purple-eyed Fiend (1/2)
Six hours later, Merle finally approached the fiend the Rule Soul Avatar had mentioned. The powerful guard had lost interest in him and no longer paid him any attention.
”Brat, do you want to rest?”
Merle asked in a low voice.
The fiend, who had taken on the form of a human, lifted his head and looked at Merle.
”What?”
Merle trembled. He looked into the fiend's purple grey eyes, and he suddenly felt a burst of inexplicable fear rise up from the bottom of his heart.
Merle calmed himself down, but the fiend didn't seem to want to talk to him. Instead, he kept on digging.
”Brat, didn't you hear me?” Merle asked, his tone more serious and authoritative.
”Get away from me!” the fiend said. His tone was firm, and he did not even lift his head to look at Merle this time around.
”You!” Merle fought the urge to rush toward the fiend and beat him.
”I'm serious. I can grant you rest. I can even grant you your freedom.” Merle tried his best to suppress his anger.
The fiend paused for a moment, lost in thought.
”Why should I believe you?” he said coldly. Rest and freedom were the only desires of his heart. He wanted these two things more than anything.
Merle couldn't answer his question. He sought out the Rule Soul Avatar through spiritual sense. ”He doesn't believe me. What should I do?”
”Let a little bit of time pass, and then put your left hand on his shoulder,” the Rule Soul Avatar answered. He sent a wisp of his law force into Merle's body through soul transmission.
Merle stretched out his hand and did as he said.
Swish!
A cold killing intent instantly enveloped Merle. It gripped every part of his body, and he let out a small gasp.
Merle felt a chill in his heart. He was about to fight back when the killing intent suddenly retreated.
The fiend's unsettling, purple grey eyes were fixed on Merle. He looked at him quizzically.
”What do you want?”
