Chapter 771: Eight-Heads Hao Yue (II)
However, the Knight of Judgment did not do that. As soon as he got out of the way, he stood in front of the Witch King. The huge purple and black sword lifted up and turned into the light of the sky to ward off Hao Yue’s attack.
Violently clanging continued to explode in the air, the Knight of Judgment was defeated by Hao Yue’s new dark and golden head.
Roar— The other seven heads of Hao Yue roared, and a bright purple glow spread from his huge body.
Although the strong members of Light Dawn Demon Hunter group did not join the battle, they could feel what Hao Yue did.
Lin Xin could not help but say, “T-This is the Eight Attributes’ chaos element? How many of you have ever heard of the Eight Attributes Hybrid magic?”
Although Si Maxian was equally shocked, he said sarcastically, “You got surprised easily. Don’t you see it now? It’s very powerful.”
It was indeed too strong.
The Eight Attributes’ chaos elements were stripped off and were instantly cast. A circle of brilliant purple light struck on the Knight of Judgment and the Witch King. Both of these Sovereign Kings’ spiritual forces madly flew out. Especially the Knight of Judgment at the front, his dark attribute of black was impacted entirely. The purple and black sword in his hands had lost its luster.
But at this time, Hao Yue’s dark golden head and all the angles of the light blade in the air quickly merged into a huge sword and chopped towards the Knight of Judgment. At the same time, a thick purple color came from the mouths of the other seven heads. The Knight of Judgment was oppressed and could not escape.
At this moment, the Witch King, who had been freed from the previous flash of gold, suddenly blocked in front of the Knight of Judgment without warning.
Hao Yue’s dark golden head glistened with a cold sheen in its eyes. With a strike from this sword, the two Sovereign Kings could die.
At this critical moment, suddenly, a light white void appeared. Khang—
A shrill hum spread so quickly that everyone from the Light Dawn Demon Hunter group covered their ears in the distance. The Knight of Judgment and the Witch King both got bounced back.
Hao Yue stood still while watching the figure flew out in the air. He did not try to pursue him.
Wasn’t that Long Haochen that stood in front of the Knight of Judgment and the Witch King?
Roar! Hao Yue roared with a low voice.
One would realize how strong Hao Yue’s attack was when one was facing in front of it. One strike from that metal blade got Long Haochen with the Sword of Eternity in both hands paralyzed. A terrifying atmosphere of destruction has crossed the Sword of Eternity and left a white mark in the Armor of Eternity. Although the white line quickly disappeared, Long Haochen could still clearly feel the destruction’s aura.
“Hao Yue, that’s enough.” Long Haochen said with a deep voice, “I promised them that if they stop interrupting your evolution, we will let them go. Now they can’t threaten you anymore. Let them go.”
It was a narrow escape for the Knight of Judgment and the Witch King. They both stared blankly at the man in the Armor of Eternity that suspended in mid-air. He really kept his promise. He really stopped Austin and griffin from killing us.
Hao Yue roared with its low voice repeatedly. It was obvious that he was not willing to let go of the two Sovereign Kings.
Long Haochen groaned with anger. “If you really want to do it, you’ll have to kill me first.” He valued the promise most in his life. He also felt a sense of unease from this terrifying atmosphere of destruction.
Hao Yue’s eight heads blinked its eyes at the same time as it stopped roaring. It flapped its wings and went closer to Long Haochen slowly. All of its eight heads joined at once.
“Be careful,” said the Witch King.
But Long Haochen remained still. Hao Yue’s dark golden head glared at the Witch King and then, along with its other seven heads, rubbing against Long Haochen’s body gently. They looked exactly the same as a pet and its owner.
The Knight of Judgment and the Witch King were transfixed. In their mind, Austin and Griffin were frightening creatures! H-How could it act like this with a human being? And, this is a sign of submission, that is, it agrees with this human, not to come after us, right?
With Hao Yue close to him, he felt a trace of grievance so Long Haochen’s face became relaxed. He gently touched its two new heads. “I know your grievance. But better to get rid of an enmity than keep it alive. And they don’t threaten you anymore. If I’m right, you must have given them a lot of pain in your previous life or else they wouldn’t do this to you. Just let them go.”
Hao Yue gently nodded his head and no longer persisted. This was the first time Long Haochen got angry at it. Since he got panicked and could no longer cling to its thought.
Long Haochen turned toward the Knight of Judgment and the Witch King and coldly said, “You can go now. This won’t happen if you hadn’t been spying on us.”
“Thank you for your forgiveness, great king of mankind.” The Witch King and the Knight of Judgment bowed to Long Haochen at the same time.
Long Haochen sighed and said, “You heard what I said just now. If you can let go of that hatred in your heart, then let it go.”
The two undead men were silent, and after a few seconds, the Knight of Judgment said, “If you’ve been through all that, you’ll see why we can’t let go. Thank you for your forgiveness. Before we leave, I’d like to remind you. Although the blood has made Austin and Griffin changed a lot. But its origin will not change, and when its full power is awakened, it may not be able to control its own mind.”
After he said that, the Knight of Judgment, once again, bowed to Long Haochen. Along with the Witch King, they turned into two rays of light and left.
Long Haochen looked at the dark Hao Yue in front of him and was surprised. After its full power awakened? Is it possible to say that such a powerful Hao Yue is not in its complete state?
Just then, suddenly, a flash of green light appeared at Long Haochen’s chest, and a feeling of heart palpitations spread all over the body.
“Eh? This is… the contract of Ye Xiaolei? Something’s wrong with Ye Xiaolei?”
Long Haochen was surprised, he immediately patted Hao Yue’s huge head and said, “Hao Yue, you have just evolved so you should stay here and stabilize your domain first. I’ll be right back.”
Then, he quickly tapped his hands and a layer of green light immediately spread out from there. In the blink of an eye, it had covered his whole body and together with the flash of light, he disappeared the next moment. He did not even have time to explain to his teammates, only a quick message to Caier: “Ye Xiaolei.”
The Knight of Judgment flew silently forward while holding the wizened hand of the Witch King.
“Why did you get in front of me just now?” the Knight of Judgment asked with a deep voice.
The Witch King’s usual shrill voice softened. “We’ve lived too long. I’m not afraid to die with you. Besides, you could have left. You know what? In fact, when I finally stood in front of you to face Austin and Griffin, my heart is not afraid of it. When you did not abandon me, and we face him together, I know, you still remember me, right? You have always taken care of me, not because I am superior, but because you have always remembered me, just as I remember you. You always refuse to admit it. But are you still going to keep lying to me, Augustine?”
The fire of the soul of the Knight of Judgment gave a slight throb. “Yina, we are all dead. All we have left is the fire of the soul that had lasted for thousands of years. My body is so ugly, I…”
“Enough. Say nothing more.” The Witch King, Yina, said mercilessly, “Why can’t the dead fall in love? Can you tell me why? It’s just your sick pride. Once the prince but now the dead, you just can’t face yourself. Or is our love limited to flesh, and without flesh you will deny it?”
“No, of course not.” The voice of the Knight of Judgment became louder. “Yina, it was I who failed to protect you! I was not able to protect you in the most critical moment, helplessly watching you get killed, and turned into the dead. I dare not tell you, so ashamed that I was your once lover. When I became a dead man, I was so exhausted that all my hopes seemed to have been extinguished at that moment. Because I want to protect you that I managed to survive and become stronger. How can I not love you? In my heart, no matter what you become, you are my most beloved Yina.”
When the Witch King heard the Knight of Judgment, Augustine, saying that without any hesitation, the fire of her soul softened. “I love you too, my Augustine. More than six thousand years have passed since that day of disaster that took our lives. However, for more than six thousand years, I have had no one but you in my mind, Augustine. Even though we are dead…. Even though we have no future left… My Augustine, even in this world of black and red, I never want to be parted from you again.”
As she spoke, the Witch King leaned lightly into the arms of the Knight of Judgment. They had no sense of touch, but at this moment, the fire of their souls seemed to be mingling with each other. Their hearts throbbed softly.
