Over there, the Wild Spirits have already started a chaotic battle with the Demon Clan. The overwhelming numerical advantage is still making things a bit difficult for everyone.
"Xi Meng, how are you holding up?!" I asked while resisting a wave of attacks from Sky's Edge.
I frowned and looked at Half-Demon Nine Charm, gritting my teeth as I replied, "No problem."
In truth, I was already considering whether to take that step...
After all, I am being sealed. As long as I resist with all my might, Nine Charm won't gain anything good from it. The reason he hasn't attacked me until now is probably because of this.
However, if I do that—one of us will surely die.
I absolutely wouldn't take such a step unless it was absolutely necessary; it's not at that point yet. Moreover, I understand Nine Charm's background and experiences. He has yet to avenge his grievances, and there is that girl waiting for him in another life. All these thoughts make my heart inexplicably ache, and I am unwilling to reach that point with Nine Charm.
"Nine Charm, why have we come to this?" I murmured softly, looking at Nine Charm with a face full of sadness. A wave of sorrow rose from deep within me; honestly, I didn't even know where this feeling of sadness was coming from.
Although he is a Half-Demon transformed Nine Charm, he is still fully demonic in nature, his fangs subtly glinting. Yet, it seems he heard my words; he froze for a moment, stopping all his movements and staring blankly at me.
The embodiment of the nine-tailed fox, but I could still see the fleeting complexity and struggle on Nine Charm's face—it was too real.
"Nine Charm, we are one. Stop this. Let's fight against Siyimo together and avenge you." I still held onto hope as I spoke to Nine Charm; he was wavering.
However, I truly didn't understand why Nine Charm chose to work for the Demon Emperor. Did the Demon Emperor have some past grievances with Siyimo?
If that's the case, then this matter can be easily resolved. He need not attack us; we are facing the same enemy.
At that moment!
When I mentioned Siyimo, Nine Charm flashed with a strange red light all over its body. Then its green eyes suddenly turned red and it charged at me wildly.
It had truly lost its mind, not even using any techniques, just rushing at me with the intent to crush me!
“Nine Charm!” I shouted its name.
It was useless!
There was no time to think about why Nine Charm had suddenly gone berserk?!
“Xi Meng, get out of the way, I'll handle it!” The powerful figure of Reverse Heaven appeared just in time, blocking in front of me.
I broke out in a cold sweat; Nine Charm had indeed seemed intent on killing me just now!
If it really charged at me like that, even with Pure Sound protecting me, our level of synergy wouldn't be enough to withstand Nine Charm's impact. The inevitable result would be that I would be shattered…
Nine Charm, have you really forgotten all feelings?
This is bad; to block that attack, Reverse Heaven might—
“Reverse Heaven—!” I shouted desperately.
The two collided, and Nine Charm still had the upper hand. Reverse Heaven had only recently entered the Realm of the Supreme Lord, how could it possibly be a match for Nine Charm, especially with such a brutal pure attack style!
“Bang!”
Nine Charm stepped back five paces, clearly suffering from some internal injuries.
"Nine Heaven!"
Nine Heaven had already regained his human form, quietly lying in the grass, still as a sleeping child. I trembled as I reached out my hand toward him—
Phew, thankfully, he was still alive...
"Was it worth it to save me?"
I brushed my fingers through Nine Heaven's messy hair and made a decision: I would vow to protect them with my life and never let anyone stand in front of me for my sake again!
"Nine Charm, do you really have to be so ruthless?"
Nine Charm remained silent.
"Fine, since you've made your choice and injured my companion, then I, Xi Meng, will fight you to the death!"
"It was you—who forced me, Nine Charm!" I said through gritted teeth.
That's right, I would personally defeat Nine Charm, or else I would eventually die at his hands. My initial thoughts were too naive; he never intended to let me go!
"Xi Meng, you can't kill him!" White Soul shouted from the side. At this moment, White Soul seemed somewhat flustered, preoccupied yet still paying attention to us.
Hah, how could someone at my level possibly kill Nine Charm? I smiled bitterly.
That wasn't my goal because I was here for—
"Fortune's Blessing."
This piece first appeared in the Dark Song sheet music, but I haven't used it much because it's quite powerful and has a wide area of effect.
Nine Charm charges in again. Although it has been somewhat restrained, it is still beyond my current ability to resist.
That's right, I'm not here to defeat him; instead, I need to weaken that group of demons first, giving everyone a chance to escape.
The attack power of Fortune's Blessing is indeed strong. Although the number of opponents is large, it doesn't cause too much damage, but at least it holds some of them back.
"Xi Meng, get out of the way!" White Soul shouted.
"Xi Meng!" The hoarse voice of the wild ghost echoed.
There's no time—
Everyone, goodbye—
------Aside------
