Chapter 494 “Never Give Up”
“Hahaha!”
Not only did the teen not topple over from the countless wounds to his body, the arrogance in his voice only grew bigger and prouder like a unyielding blade.
“Do you people think this will defeat me? Shame I couldn’t protect the Queen, shame I still I haven’t gotten revenge for my brothers the Azure Dragon and Black Turtle!”
“I, White Tiger, will continue to fight as long as I stand. So come, come you deceitful bastards! I will rip every single one of you to shreds before I fall!”
In one smooth motion, the unyielding teen had ripped one of the blades out from his body. He did not flinch, and he did not scream. The only thing he did was to point the blade in his hand at the sky where thousands converged, all willing and ready to slice him down in the name of justice.
“Enough!” Covering her lips with those trembling fingers, Bai Yan’s tears came pouring down of her eye sockets like a waterfall.
She wanted to do something, she really did. But the state she’s in, the body she’s in control of refuses to move. So, she watched from the floor while the teen did his all to protect her. First it was the dismembering of the boy’s arm, then the direct slash across the chest, and the desperate struggle of one against thousands….
Even so, the teen never waivered and he continued to stand.
Everyone could tell by now the boy was dead. Hollow eye sockets, rigid movements, that’s the sign of an individual burning away their soul for power! And the price? Once fully consumed, the snowy white teen would forever disappear, never to be reborn again.
“White Tiger!”
Crying out, she struggles to climb up from the floor after finally being released at last. There’s endless anger on her face right now, but more than that, it’s endless suffering that’s consuming her very heart.
“Enough, you have done enough, you can rest now! I swear, if there is an afterlife, I will find all three of you, Azure Dragon and Black Turtle as well. When that time comes, I will use all these peoples lives as tribute for what they’ve done to us all!”
……
“So stop, do you hear me? Stop this instant…!”
If you don’t stop now then you really will destroy your own soul!”
In a last-ditch effort, Bai Yan reaches out in a attempt to drag the boy’s body to herself; yet, when she does so, her fingers simply went through him. It’s as if she was touching nothing but thin air, like everything never existed despite it being so real.
That’s right…. I’m not part of this place, this is nothing but a piece of my own memory….
But then, perhaps the teen did hear her plea, because in the next second from those hollow and empty eyes came a flickering white light. Bai Yan wasn’t sure what’s going on, but that rigid movement indicated he could hear her!
“I’ll be fine and we’re all going to have an afterlife. If you don’t stop now then you won’t be able to protect me in the future!” As silly as her words may be when everything around her was nothing but a flashback, she nevertheless cries out like it’s happening for real.
Sure enough, the sword in the boy’s hand fell in that moment and the determined body crumbled to dust like something’s been lifted. Everything came so quickly and disappeared just as quickly. Now, nothing remains but darkness in her head….
