Chapter 657: Chapter 81: Absurdity_2
He stood at the center of the crossroads.
And all around him were the familiar mass graves.
Hecate quickly stepped back.
Yet, just as she retreated a step.
Chen Lusi, lying close to the ground, suddenly rose up, swinging her right arm forcefully upwards.
Rip—
The sound, like paper being torn, echoed.
Then.
The barking of the dogs was abruptly interrupted.
The graveyard, the crossroads, bathed in pallid moonlight like crumpled paper, suddenly collapsed, distorted, and finally pulled away, condensed into a single point.
A point attached to the blade of Chen Lusi’s right arm.
The courtroom reappeared.
"!!!!!"
Hecate stood at the doorway, maintaining her retreating posture, staring at Chen Lusi who raised her right arm, her mouth agape, pupils shrinking almost to a point.
Chen Lusi lightly shook her hand, as if shaking off dust, letting the black dot formed from the collapsed Anomaly Realm fall to the ground from the sword.
Then.
Stepped forward.
The sole of her shoe crushed that black dot formed from the collapsed Anomaly Realm, standing in front of Hecate.
"The goddess Hecate you’re referring, is it her?"
Chen Lusi looked at Hecate, slowly raising her left hand in normal form, and abruptly grasped the air in front of her.
A strange, piercing scream suddenly reverberated throughout the courtroom.
Everyone present immediately covered their ears.
Hecate did not; she just stared blankly ahead, watching the translucent being struggling as if it were made of glass.
It was being choked by Chen Lusi, constantly trying to break free, but no matter how it struggled, it managed only to make some noise, all to no avail.
And this translucent being, like glass... was constantly changing shapes, sometimes holding a rope, then a torch, then a sharp blade.
Hecate knew it well.
Because... this was the legendary Road Goddess.
Indeed, the Road Goddess, Hecate, who was meant to be above Kunlun.
"I ask."
Chen Lusi looked at her, asked again: "The goddess Hecate you’re referring, is it her?"
"You... you... you... you..."
Hecate opened her mouth, her body cold as if entering an icy cave, blood seemingly frozen in her veins, thoughts in chaos, leaving only a buzzing noise in her mind.
She tried hard to speak, but no matter how she tried, her lips could only utter a weak sound, barely forming the word ’you’.
At this moment.
She finally understood.
Why Chen Lusi could leave the Anomaly Realm so quickly.
Because the god constructing the Anomaly Realm... had been driven down to the Human World.
But... why?
Wasn’t that Kunlun?
The Kunlun Pantheon... weren’t they all struck down to the mortal realm by Xia Yue?
Why? Why? Why?
What on earth is this??????
Countless doubts spun in her mind.
When this reality stood bloodily in front of her.
Hecate felt an unprecedented fear and despair, instantly encircling her.
But, this state did not last long.
Swish—
A sound of slicing through the air abruptly arose.
Chen Lusi raised her right arm, thrusting forward.
That sudden sound of slicing in the air seemed to be announcing her death.
"Ah————————"
Hecate suddenly reacted, witnessing the scene, and screamed out loud.
Heart-wrenching.
For the first time, she felt so close to death, staring at the expressionless Chen Lusi.
Death.
This word caused her such terror.
She didn’t want to die!
She didn’t want to die!!
She was a Holy Coffin Knight who completely overturned the Celestial Strategy Mansion! A Holy Coffin Knight who successfully stole from the Kunlun Pantheon! A Holy Coffin Knight who could enter the Celestial Kingdom!
How could she possibly die here!
Behind Hecate.
The crossroads emerged once more.
The choice of fate.
Rip—
Yet, just as the crossroads came out, it collapsed, distorted like crumpled paper, finally pulled away, re-condensing into a point... attached to the tip of the blade in Chen Lusi’s right arm.
And the blade.
Still forward, unstoppable, pierces through the Spirit Hecate had formed, entering through the top of her head... and then, appearing at the back of her skull.
Splatter!
Blood spattered.
A few beads of blood landed on Chen Lusi’s face.
Crack—
Chen Lusi continued forward, power bursting out in an instant, the blade drove Hecate hard, pinning her to the door... and also pinning Hecate to the door of the courthouse.
Hecate opened her mouth, staring blankly at Chen Lusi, the thick blood on her forehead flowing continuously downward, her screams abruptly ceased.
The choice of fate.
Became ineffective.
In front of Chen Lusi... there were no three paths offered to her.
"Games, joy, and chance?"
Chen Lusi looked at Hecate, slowly pulling out the knife, then shaking off the blood on it, raising her other hand, lifting that translucent being, ever-changing forms, sometimes holding a rope, sometimes holding a torch, sometimes holding a sharp blade.
Raising her right arm, slightly turned sideways.
Under the light.
The blade reflected a cold gleam.
Illuminating a visage cold as iron.
Crack—
The blade embedded into the doorframe again.
Accompanied by wood chips flying around.
That translucent being like glass, Hecate’s Authority Ability Source Canon, the god she spoke of, was nailed beside her... after a convulsion, it ceased all motion.
Chen Lusi wiped the blood on her face with her thumb, then looked again at Hecate, whose mouth was opening and closing, slowly sliding down against the door:
"The randomness of fate?"
"Is it just this?"
"Didn’t fate tell you, you would be nailed to the courthouse door?"
"............"
Hecate looked at Chen Lusi, opened her mouth, her eyes filled with regret and fear.
But she couldn’t make even the slightest sound.
