111 Tears of Regret, Dream of Su Ling
“I am not getting away from your brother. Your brother is going to die here. And, you as well.”
Suddenly, a voice rang from the explosion. An immense wave of water swept away the fire and extinguished it. The water swept away Fu Chen, Chu Yan, and Wu Kong.
“Fire Spirit Sword”
Suddenly, a powerful voice rang from the side as a giant sword made out of flame slashed at Xue Ling. But, before it could hit her, she released her flames and burned the sword.
She covered her hands in flame and appeared in front of her. She slapped her chest and spoke.
“Now, burn till your death!”
She left Su Ling burning and instantly moved towards the others.
It wasn’t long before she quickly got her hands on Chu Yan and Wu Kong. She thought of killing them before she would kill Fu Chen. And, she also wanted to see him in despair.
She held them by their neck and looked at Fu Chen.
“Did you have your fun? Did you really believe that you can kill a Nascent Soul Cultivator? I was the strongest Nascent Soul Cultivator, and even now, my strength hasn’t decreased significantly.”
“Do you regret fighting me instead of running away? Initially, I wanted to get your body, but now, I just want to kill you, take your eyes back to the family and finally drink your blood to enhance my bloodline.”
“But before, I am going to kill your brothers.”
Boom! Boom!
Her hands suddenly released powerful flames and burned Chu Yan and Wu Kong. Although they were burned, both of them weren’t even screaming.
She also noticed something was off. Naturally, he should be angry at her. Why wasn’t he even trying anything?
Suddenly, she sensed the spatial movement and instantly threw those two away. She rushed toward Fu Chen. Her palm covered with flames, smashed at his head.
Bang!
A portal appeared in front of her. Before she could react, a figure dashed out of the portal and smashed her stomach with a kick.
Xue Ling flew out like a cannonball and struck dozens of trees before falling down.
“Chen! Chen! Are you alright?” Shen Xui immediately crouched and held him in her hands. At this moment, his stomach had a big hole, and his face was burned along with his hair.
He was already covered in blood. Shen Xui was terrified seeing this situation, but it was nothing new for Fu Chen. His consciousness was completely alive.
He shook his head and said, “Kill—— her….. must kill her…..”
Shen Xui narrowed her eyes and nodded her head. Terrifying energy burst out of her body. It was the Killing Intent that she acquired when Xue Le’s master tried to kill her father-in-law.
“Nine Tails Fox Bloodline”
“First Tail- Power of Herculean”
“Second Tail- Speed of Mercury”
“Third Tail- Wings of Hermes”
A long time ago, it was said that mortal fox bravery earned the respect of gods. The fox with its sheer size that was bigger than the mountain and nine tails that kept destroying the lands fought against titans, the enemies of gods.
That fox brought a new era of legend and thus called ‘Nine Tails Fox’ ever since. But, it won just more than its reputation. It also earned the powers of gods.
Nine Different Gods gave their blessing to the fox with its nine tails. It started the revolution of the fox clan in the mortal world. But for thousands of years, nobody could inherit this bloodline.
Until Shen Xui did. She successfully activated the bloodline of her ancestors and managed to awaken the power of three tails.
Three white tails appeared behind her. Each tail was bigger than her arms combined. And, it wasn’t all. Two giant wings appeared behind her. It was said that Hermes had boots that can fly but the flight of the boots came from its small wings.
Unlike Hermes, she inherited the wings on her back. When the wings flapped, her body swiftly moved toward Xue Ling.
Xue Ling was barely standing after that collision. Although her law and cultivation powers were strong, she wasn’t physically stronger. Any physical injuries would take a lot of toll on her body.
When the space around her trembled, it instantly gave her an idea about the upcoming threat. She didn’t even look before creating a massive barrier of water around her.
Splash! Bang!
Shen Xui simply pierced through the barrier and smashed a punch on her chest.
Cough!
Xue Ling broke her bones and coughed out blood. It instantly changed the color of the water and the barrier as well. Shen Xui instantly caught her head and flew.
Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang!
She smashed Xue Ling’s head through each tree she could find near her. Her head was turning blood. Xue Ling released her fire law but Shen Xui didn’t let go.
She instantly caught her by her legs and smashed her left and right on the ground. She wasn’t stopping but suddenly, she sensed a spear moving toward Fu Chen.
She threw Xue Ling and instantly rushed toward Fu Chen. She saw the spear that was only a few inches away from Fu Chen. It was a devil who took this chance to assassinate Fu Chen.
Fu Chen wanted to move but his body was still healing. And, the devil was using the spatial powers to block his movements
‘Damn! Damn! Damn! Damn! Damn! Damn! Damn! Damn! Damn! ‘ Shen Xui couldn’t stop cursing. Even though she was increasing her speed, she couldn’t reach out to Fu Chen.
Splash!
The spear pierced a body and the blood dripped on Fu Chen’s face. In front of him, Su Ling was standing holding the tip of the spear that pierced her.
Fu Chen’s eyes widened as he tried to struggle.
Bang!
Shen Xui finally reached there as she kicked the devil. She couldn’t help but quickly pull out the spear from Su Ling’s body. At this moment, the spatial force that blocked his movement also disappeared.
“No! No! No! Ling, hold on! I will heal you.” Fu Chen’s hands trembled as he quickly held her. The spear had made a deep hole in her body. He quickly released her purple qi and the wood powers to heal her.
“Don’t….. the devils’ energy has corroded my body…..” Su Ling shook her head as she lay on his hands.
“No! I can still heal you. I will destroy the devil’s energy and then heal you. Hold on! Please hold on!” Tears were coming out of his eyes as he held her in his arms.
He was constantly using the Hongmeng Purple Qi and wood powers to heal her.
“Chen…. We haven’t gotten close, have we? We….. met a week ago. Cough!”
“Stop! Please don’t talk…”
No matter how much Fu Chen begged her, Su Ling knew her condition. Unlike them, she was physically weak. The spear not only pierced her lungs but also destroyed her blood veins.
Even if she stopped talking, she won’t make it. She slowly raised her hand and put it on his cheek.
“Chen… I never get to know you better. I don’t know anything about you… I never realized that I will fall for you so hard… Chen….. you are full of rage and anger.”
“You seek strength at all cost but you still care about the people around you….. These tears are the proof….. Chen, promise me something…..”
“Please! Don’t die, Ling…. I don’t want you to die.” Fu Chen screamed as tears fell down his cheeks.
“Chen….. please don’t hate the world….. Don’t let that hatred consume you…. I truly want to be with you. I want you to understand the meaning of love and peace. I don’t want you to become a monster in other’s hearts…….”
“Chen… my dream is to make a world where everyone no matter if they are a spirit, or dragon or human or monsters can live in peace….. Will you help me?”
When she said that, Fu Chen’s tears froze. Chu Yan, Wu Kong, and Shen Xui also froze for a moment.
It wasn’t just a coincidence that they liked each other.
It wasn’t just to gain strength or just to have a handsome lover.
It wasn’t just a fake love.
At this moment, they realized that Su Ling was someone who was meant to guide Fu Chen.
But now, she was dying.
Su Ling’s hand slowly slipped down but Fu Chen quickly held them as she looked at him with a smile and spoke.
“Chen…. Make this world peaceful like heaven.”
At this moment, her eyes finally lost their lights. Her heart stopped beating and she finally lost her life. When she died, Fu Chen almost his vision for a moment.
He held her tightly and looked at the sky.
“Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh”
His scream shook the forest. But, it didn’t matter at all. His tears fell on her cheek.
“Sob! Sob! Why? Why did you have to die? It’s my fault. It’s all my fault. I shouldn’t have brought you here….. Hic! Hic!”
At this moment, Chu Yan walked in front of him and crouched down. He raised his paw and slapped his cheek. Tears fell down his eyes as he asked.
“Do you think she wants you to regret spending time with her? Do you think she wants you to regret falling for her? She didn’t follow you because you wanted.”
“She followed you because she loved you. Brother…. Please for her don’t blame yourself….. This is the path you chose and she chose to follow you.
“We chose to follow you.”
