Chapter 69:
Xu Ze knew that his previous strategy had already had an effect on Gu Ling. However, the darkness within Gu Ling's heart was too deep. Just a simple strategy would hardly remove all the darkness from Gu Ling's heart.
[Warning! Please leave the female lead's consciousness as soon as possible]
[Otherwise, the host will be punished by the Dao rules]
The system's warning kept echoing in Xu Ze's ears. Looking at the wildly raging black petals all around and the sky shattered like glass, Xu Ze clenched his fists, and his body gradually blurred.
Boom!
In the vast landscape, thunder roared, accompanied by howling winds.
Two figures floated in the air. Xu Ze opened his eyes and looked at Gu Ling in front of him. Her eyes were filled with complex emotions. Xu Ze pursed his lips, wanting to say something. However, Gu Ling spoke first: "That was an illusion you created, right?"
Xu Ze remained calm. "An illusion? No, that's just the deepest part of your heart."
The deepest part of her heart...
Gu Ling gritted her teeth, and the hand that had penetrated Xu Ze's chest even trembled slightly.
"Are you... are you mocking me?"
"Mocking you? I'm just letting you see your own heart, that's all."
Xu Ze's expression remained unchanged. Feeling Gu Ling's fingers trembling slightly inside his heart, Xu Ze swallowed a mouthful of saliva lightly.
He knew that if he just said, 'I love you, I'm willing to bear the hatred of your past nine lives,' Gu Ling would throw herself into his arms, crying loudly, and put an end to this cycle of corruption. However, doing so would also expose Xu Ze's identity as a reincarnator, leading to a mission failure.
Xu Ze had no choice but to gamble.
He had to draw a conclusion from his thoughts.
He closed his eyes, showing no fear of death on his face. It seemed like he was genuinely willing to let Gu Ling kill him.
"If... if you want to die, then I'll grant your wish..."
Seeing Xu Ze like this, Gu Ling gritted her teeth.
Her eyes flashed fierceness, and the hand that had penetrated Xu Ze's chest grasped Xu Ze's beating heart.
With just a little force, Xu Ze would die on the spot!
However, even though death was only a step away, Xu Ze's face showed a faint smile.
"I don't know why, but I actually have a thought that if I could die by your hand, it would be fulfilling... Perhaps, in the depths of fate, my life should belong to you..."
Boom!
A thunderous sound seemed to echo in Gu Ling's ears. That thunder illuminated the pitch-black sky and seemed to strike Gu Ling's heart.
Crack.
Gu Ling heard the sound of her heart breaking. She suddenly withdrew her hand from Xu Ze's chest and slapped him several meters away with her left hand.
Even though the strike from Gu Ling wasn't heavy, it made Xu Ze feel a little suffocated.
A mouthful of blood spurted from his mouth. But Xu Ze still stood straight, unyielding.
"Why... don't you kill me..." Xu Ze wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth, enduring the tearing pain in his lungs, and looked at the tongue spirit trembling all over.
Under the hood, tears had already filled Gu Ling's face. She pulled down her hood slightly, not letting Xu Ze see her current expression.
"Hmph... Killing you like this would be too cheap for you..."
"I want you to taste my pain..."
"I want to kill everyone around you, and then, slowly kill you..."
"You, just wait for me..."
After saying that, Gu Ling took a deep breath. She turned around and disappeared without a trace in the blink of an eye.
Xu Ze covered his chest, looking in the direction where Gu Ling had disappeared with a lingering gaze.
...
A crystal tear fell on Xu Ze's cheek. Xu Ze was slightly startled, gently touching the wetness on his face.
...
(The Holy Heaven and Earth Sect)
The Thousand Evil Formation shrouding the sect was already full of cracks. Looking at the sect's elders about to break through the barrier, the evil cultivators trembled in fear and sweated profusely.
"We can't stop them anymore, what should we do..."
They all knew that once these sect elders stepped out of the Thousand Evil Formation, only death awaited them.
[The Demon Lord has ordered that all demonic cultivators of the Demon Abyss cultivators immediately retreat from the Holy Heaven and Earth Sect!]
Just as the demonic cultivators were terrified, a long-distance transmission suddenly exploded in their ears. At that moment, the demonic cultivators rejoiced.
"Hurry, retreat!"
Several elder demonic cultivators reacted quickly and instantly escaped hundreds of miles away. The rest of the demonic cultivators scrambled around like headless flies.
With no support from the evil cultivators, the Thousand Evil Formation was like plastic, instantly shattered by the combined force of the elders of the sacred land.
Boom!
As a series of piercing sounds rang out, the dark clouds over the sacred mountain suddenly dispersed. Following that, incomparably holy radiance filled the air.
"Trying to escape?"
Elder Qi Tian stepped out of the formation first. His eyes filled with rage as he shouted loudly.
His terrifying, profound Qi condensed into an invisible giant hand and grabbed hundreds of demonic cultivators who wanted to escape. With just a little force, they were instantly crushed like a group of ants.
The other elders of the Holy Heaven and Earth Sect were also filled with anger. As the top powerhouses of the Qiankun Continent, they were actually being toyed with by a group of insignificant demonic cultivators.
As they stepped out of the formation, they rushed out one by one, slaughtering everywhere.
Countless Holy Heaven and Earth Sect disciples also roared with anger and rushed forward. For a moment, the entire area around the Holy Mountain turned into a scene of shocking slaughter.
Of course, those being slaughtered were overwhelmingly the evil cultivators...
