Chapter 457. Like a butterfly (2/2)
Although the smile on Red Butterfly’s face was beautiful, it still contained a hint of pride. This pride was her true self.
Red Butterfly spent her entire life being proud, and even at the moment of her death, she was still proud. Her pride was as high as the clouds and as captivating as a bright red butterfly…
The axe pierced the sky, creating a powerful gust of wind and a series of sonic booms that echoed through the heavens.
Red Butterfly hadn’t even lived for 200 years yet, but just like that bright red butterfly, although its life was fleeting, its beauty and pride were things people wouldn’t be able to forget!
Although her pride made many people unhappy, although her ruthlessness made it hard for people to get close to her, she was Red Butterfly!
The proud Red Butterfly!
The axe closed in on Red Butterfly. When it was less than 100 feet away from her, it released a destructive force. At this moment, if Red Butterfly wanted to resist, she had the power to do so. If she wanted to dodge, she had the ability to do so. However, she didn’t resist or dodge it. At this moment, her eyes were getting brighter and brighter and the pride in her eyes was getting stronger and stronger.
However, mixed in with that pride was a sliver of regret. Although it was hidden well, Wang Lin still saw it.
In her last few moments, Red Butterfly met her master. She saw her master’s face and heard her voice. She remembered her debt to her master for raising her and her master’s gentle and harsh words when she was a young woman. All of these appeared in her eyes.
In addition to her master, there was another figure, a weak-looking youth. His eyes were still gentle as he silently watched her.
After seeing this figure, Red Butterfly revealed a faint smile.
The scenes were still flashing before her eyes until it stopped on one figure. His eyes were filled with love for Red Butterfly. He was the one who dared to steal the Soul Lasher regardless of the consequences.
“Goodbye…” Red Butterfly’s smile slowly froze.
The axe arrived!
The red rose before Red Butterfly released a blinding light as the petals flew off one by one.
A stream of blood came from Red Butterfly’s mouth and her eyes slowly dimmed, but that deep sense of pride from between her eyebrows didn’t weaken.
“Next year, when the flowers bloom, there will be a field of roses on planet Suzaku. There will be a blue rose that will bloom in the northern plains. Wang Lin, that is my gift to you…”
The rose that lost its petals only had the stem left. When the axe closed in on it, it completely collapsed and disappeared.
A red mark appeared between her eyebrows as blood spewed out. It looked very shocking.
“Red Butterfly, you will face one trial in your life! It will be a life and death trial. If you pass it, then the rest of your life will be without trouble. If you can’t pass it, then all will be lost. Master used her life to help you foresee this, so please be careful…”
“Red Butterfly, I’m afraid your trial will be related to Ceng Niu. He can’t be left alive!”
Red Butterfly was covered in blood and her vision turned red.
“Master, you foresaw Red Butterfly’s trial, but unfortunately, you only saw the person caught in the middle and not Qian Feng, who was my real trial…”
The axe pierced through Red Butterfly’s body and landed on the ground.
It created a deep hole on the ground and black smoke slowly came out from that hole.
Cracks appeared on Red Butterfly’s armor. The cracks slowly spread until they covered the entire armor.
She closed her eyes and her body exploded into a mist of blood…
A gentle breeze scattered the mist of blood, causing tiny blood crystals to cover the area…
Heaven’s blessed daughter, Red Butterfly, died…
“Wang Lin… help me… kill Qian Feng… please…”
Wang Lin floated in the air and silently pondered. He raised his head and seemed to have heard Red Butterfly’s final message.
As captivating as a butterfly… although it was short, the butterfly’s beauty was engraved in people’s hearts, making it hard to forget…
Red Butterfly died, leaving behind only a piece of jade and the Soul Lasher. These two items floated there, giving off a lonely aura…
“Qian Feng’s domain is endless desire. He wants to devour everything, to obtain everything… In truth, how can domains be devoured? What Qian Feng wants was the moment of connecting with the heavens when one comprehends their domain.
“He devours domains to obtain different comprehensions until he can refine his own domain to completion…”
The information on his jade was what Red Butterfly learned by observing Qian Feng in these past few years.
