1060 Unchanging Love (2/2)
”Child, work hard to survive. Go… now.”
Luo Xiao recalled his consciousness.
Qin Mu did as well, and he looked at Luo Xiao, who was in a frenzy. Luo Xiao walked around in excitement, hugging the dragon qilin, Yan'er, and even the six heavenly dragons, which he also kissed.
Finally, he hugged Qin Mu tightly and said, while choking, ”Mu, you are my real brother!”
Qin Mu smiled and patted his back, gently saying, ”It's time to go, Brother.”
Luo Xiao let go of him and wiped his tears. His smile was pure.
Qin Mu quietly utilized the formation of reverse summoning to sense the sacrificial altar outside of the ancestral court. At that moment, Gu Xiao was injured in the mine. He was in great danger due to Da Hong and the void beast mother's attacks. Da Hong's laughter could be heard easily.
”Tai Chu, you finally lost. You will die here, and your real body outside won't even know what happened! I'll slowly feast on you and take your power!”
He was like a cat who caught its favorite mouse. He didn't kill him quickly, instead choosing to play with, hurting Gu Xiao more while preventing him from escaping.
”I'll slowly occupy your celestial heavens and take away your power. I'll slowly destroy the era you built to make you feel despair. You won't be able to find the true enemy and will die in endless pain!”
Finally, Gu Xiao kneeled in front of Gong Yun's golden coffin. He could fight no more.
Da Hong stood in front of him, his eyes possessing a bewitching glow. He raised Gu Xiao's chin with his spear as he laughed and said, ”I'll take your consciousness and the Great Dao in your body. I'll understand everything about you, while your real body will never know that I lurk around you.”
Gu Xiao raised his head with great effort and laughed. His teeth were stained blood-red as he said, ”Grand Emperor, do you know where Gong Yun's soul is?”
Da Hong's pupils contracted.
”It's with me.”
Gu Xiao laughed in an unrestrained manner. ”I'm carrying her soul. Although I killed her, I loved her, so I imprisoned her soul. Do you want to see her?”
The spear in Da Hong's hands trembled as he hoarsely shouted, ”Let her soul out!”
Gu Xiao struggled to raise his hands and retrieve a jade pendant from his neck. He wanted to crush it, but he couldn't.
His injuries were too severe, and he was running out of time.
Da Hong used his spear to pry the pendant away. A lady's soul flew out of it and drifted towards the golden coffin.
Da Hong obsessively looked at the lady's soul. It was his wife, Divine King Gong Yun.
”Nü Xin…”
He moved to the golden coffin. In it, the lover that mesmerized him slowly opened her eyes.
Da Hong's body trembled. He extended his palm to the lady with a smile. The lady took his hand, and they held each other's hands.
Da Hong pulled her out and hugged the resurrected divine king. They couldn't help but cry. ”Nü Xin, my lovely wife. I missed you all these years. I wanted to see you again. I have countless things to talk to you about…”
Behind him, Gu Xiao revealed a smile of mockery as he slowly raised the imperial sword in his hand and pointed it towards Da Hong's back.
A slender jade hand held its hilt, and it stabbed straight into Da Hong's back.
The lady that Da Hong was hugging let go of him as he kneeled in front of the coffin.
The void beast mother howled furiously as it opened its mouth to swallow the resurrected female divine king.
”Beast!”
Da Hong was furious. Blood gushed out of his mouth, which angered the void beast mother even more. He furiously shouted, ”Leave!”
The void beast mother released a timid cry as it leaped into the void and disappeared.
Fresh blood flowed out of Da Hong's mouth as he looked up at his lovely wife. He still wore a smile as he said, ”Nü Xin, I may have betrayed everyone and my people, but I will never betray you nor change my feelings towards you.”
The lady in the coffin was expressionless. She rose and went over his head. She moved to his back and held the imperial sword's hilt, stabbing it in.
The tip of the sword came out of Da Hong's chest, and the Dao power hidden within destroyed his corporeal body functions and suppressed his consciousness.
”I still love you… until I die…” He smiled.
Divine King Gong Yun squatted beside him. Her long hair drooped down onto his chest, and her voice was filled with endless hatred as she spoke into his ear.
”I, however, have stopped loving you, Grand Emperor. Ever since you annihilated my people, I stopped loving you.”
Her voice was like a bone-cutting knife as she twisted the hilt. She crushed Da Hong's heart bit by bit. ”There is only hate between us. Endless hate. I can work with Tai Chu to use his power to kill you. I'll tell you now that I dropped our baby to its death, and I even had a baby with Tai Chu!”
The smile on Da Hong's face remained. ”As long as you still live…”
Poof.
Divine King Gong Yun pulled out the sword with all her strength. Gu Xiao struggled to stand up as he said mockingly, ”Dao Friend, you still can't beat me.”
Divine King Gong Yun didn't turn around to look at him. She lifted the sword and sliced it backward, the sword light flashing through Gu Xiao's neck.
Gu Xiao's head fell off his neck as his corpse fell. His smile was gone as he revealed his disbelief.
Divine King Gong Yun adjusted the hilt and tossed it down. It went through the back of Gu Xiao's headless corporeal body, nailing him to the floor of the mine.
”The thing I hate the most is betrayal.” She lifted her leg and crushed Gu Xiao's skull while plainly saying that.
Da Hong still hadn't died. He looked at Gu Xiao's headless corpse while on the ground, laughing as he said, ”Good kill, good kill! Nü Xin, go out of the mine. There's a fellow called Mu Qing outside that can get you out of here! I'm disrupting his consciousness, but I can't do it for long. This is the only chance…”
Divine King Gong Yun held his neck to lift him up as she walked out of the mine. ”I won't let you die like that. I still have to use your borrowed body to find your real body. I won't let you die until I find your real body.”
Da Hong drooped powerlessly while keeping his gaze on her face obsessively. His eyes were filled with hope. ”As long as you live…”
”I want to torture you, imprison you, and use countless ways to make you feel pain.”
Divine King Gong Yun coldly said, ”I want you to feel the pain of killing my people, a hundred times the pain! I want you to feel unimaginable amounts of torture!”
Da Hong powerlessly said, ”As long as I have you by my side…”
”Shut up!”
