Novel Full Chapter 988 The Door of Hope!
“Haha, then let’s see who’s stronger.” Xie Yi pretended to not hear Xie’Er’s deliberate name calling and laughed out loud.
Immediately afterwards, lightning began to snake around Xie Yi’s body. Beneath the snakes of purple lightning, a shadow appeared. It was Xie’Er.
Xie’Er looked at Xie Yi with a complicated look on his face. Xie Yi saw his expression and smirked as he nodded towards Xie’Er. Then, he reached out his right hand.
Xie’Er looked at that hand and sighed. He reached out with his left hand and held Xie Yi’s hand.
Xie Yi’s smile was even bigger now. He turned around to look towards the green gowned elder and said softly, “I’m still just a bit weaker right now. In the future…” ‘In the future, I will become even stronger so that you can actually appear in front of my comrades.’
After seemingly understanding Xie Yi’s unfinished statement, Xie’Er also held Xie Yi’s hand firmly.
‘I hope you won’t let me down! That lonely and cold world isn’t a really good place to live.’
Xie’Er thought of Xie Yi’s extremely capable Boss. With him around them, he believed that Xie Yi would not become a weakling who couldn’t withstand his powers. Xie Yi didn’t know that what gave Xie’Er’s confidence to believe in him was not him, but actually Ling Lan, who had appeared only for a short moment in Xie’Er’s world.
As Xie Yi and Xie’Er walked hand in hand, the snakes of glowing purple lightning around their bodies became even darker, and eventually into a pitch black color. But when put under a light, there was still a shade of purple, proving that the lightning was dark purple.
As the purple lightning became darker and darker, there was dangerous and suffocating aura slowly exuding out from within. The green gowned elder had already raised the power level of his domain to its strongest. Seeing Xie Yi’s domain energy getting stronger, he decisively made a move.
The jade like sea all around him went straight towards Xie Yi.
Seeing this, Xie Yi and Xie’Er raised their interlocked hands and two lightning dragons shoot from their hands.
The dragon that appeared from Xie Yi’s left hand was vibrant in color with some red shade in the purple. The radiance of the color was seemingly enough to reach into a person’s soul. It also made the jade colored sea around them lose its color. The aura the lightning was exuding out was the same as Xie Yi’s personality, free and enthusiastic, and could easily affect the atmosphere around him.
Xie’Er’s dragon from his right hand, on the other hand, was fully black. Within the black dragon, there was an inked lightning with tar-like density, calmly moving along with the movement of the dragon. It was just like him, a presence that was calm enough to enclose the universe into it.
Their interlocked hands were suddenly clenched firmly. Then, the two different colored lightning dragons were pushed outwards from their hands at the same time.
The two lightning dragons ruthlessly flew towards the jade sea.
Once the radiantly colored dragon touched the jade sea, the jade sea was instantly set ablaze. Although fire was destructive, there was also the power of life infused in it. The black dragon on the other hand turned the jade sea on its side into a gray wasteland. That was the power of death.
These two different dragon forms stunned the green gowned elder. But, he quickly slapped himself awake and countless thick branches suddenly appeared from the ground to attack Xie Yi’s main body.
However, the branches that were once filled with life, quickly withered away and had its life force drained the instant it got close to Xie Yi.
Compared to Xie Yi’s lightning power, Xie’Er’s lightning was more suitable for defense.
At that moment, the two dragons finally combined together in mid-air. One began to take in the power of life and the other was replenish its destructive power. As the lightning continuously crackled and burst apart, it became stronger and stronger, before finally congregating into a gigantic lightning dragon. As the green gowned elder was looking at it with despair on his face, the dragon instantly devoured him.
Seeing that his opponent was defeated, Xie Yi, who was enduring immense pain until now, instantly sat onto the ground. He opened his mouth and coughed out burning black smoke.
“You’re still too weak. If you don’t make body stronger, you won’t be able to endure my destructive powers the next time I come out,” Xie’Er said coldly. Although Xie Yi controlled his power of life well, he was still weaker compared to Xie’Er’s knowledge of his own destructive power.
Xie Yi laughed out loud. Right as he was about to answer, his wounds opened up, causing him to grit his teeth in pain.
Seeing this, Xie’Er coldly said, “You should rest up so you don’t have to trouble your buddy.” He looked towards Luo Lang, whose condition was also not so good. “But… it seems your buddy needs your help more.”
Hearing that Luo Lang’s condition was not good, Xie Yi instantly jumped up in response. This made him seem that was not injured at all.
Xie’Er shook his head as he saw this scene. When Xie Yi heard that his comrade was injured, he could completely disregard his own injuries… Compared to Xie Yi, he wouldn’t care about comrades first. Instead, he would be selfish and care for himself first.
This was perhaps why their father chose Xie Yi and didn’t choose him! Xie’Er felt his body slowly become transparent and returning to the cold world that he belonged in.
“Luo Lang, are you alright?” Xie Yi had already ran towards Luo Lang and asked him hurriedly.
Luo Lang’s face was pale. In order to defeat his opponent, he completely depleted his domain energy, so he was now unable to move from the exhaustion.
Xie Yi quickly helped Luo Lang to drink a strong recovery agent that Li Shiyu had made. At the same time, he didn’t forget to drink one himself.
Not long after, Luo Lang’s complexion began to look better. Luo Lang didn’t think that depleting his domain energy would result in such a strong side effect, he did not even have the energy to take out a medicinal agent.
If Xie Yi had somehow lost, the two of them would have actually died here. After thinking about this, Luo Lang couldn’t help but be terrified at the thought. The thought of becoming stronger was even more engraved in his mind.
After seeing that Luo Lang was alright, Xie Yi stopped worrying and continued to investigate this building. He discovered that other than the children locked up in cages, the others were either dead or ran away when the two of them were fighting the elders.
“What should we do about those children?” Xie Yi pointed towards the children in cages who were unconscious.
Luo Lang frowned and twirled his hair with his finger. In the next second, Luo Lang’s eyes calmed down and said, “We’re not saviors. Our Boss’s orders were to infiltrate and destroy, not save. Whether they can successfully get out of this building, would depend on their luck.”
Xie Yi knew this was Luo Lang’s extremely calm personality talking. He also knew that his judgment was rarely wrong so he nodded in agreement without much hesitation.
However, the calm personality still had a sliver of humanity left in his body so he told Xie Yi to open the cages, cut the shackles around their limbs to give them a sliver of hope.
After finishing this, Xie Yi carried Luo Lang, who had not fully recovered, on his back and left the building.
Not long after they had left, one youngster from the cages woke up from his dreamworld. He saw his cage was opened and the shackles around his arms and legs were broken. He then saw that the entire area was in ruins, with countless puddles of blood and silence all around him. The youngster immediately realized that this horrifying place was completely destroyed by two masked individuals who had suddenly appeared. The opened cages and broken shackles was the opportunity the two strong individuals had given them to escape this hell hole.
The youngster understood that with so many people, the two strong individuals could not save everyone. Plus, they also didn’t have any reason to save them. However, just the thought of giving them a chance to escape, was enough to let this youngster be grateful eternally. He knew that this act was essentially the same as giving them all a new start on life.
