Seeing the situation worsening, he shouted, "Sire!You don’t want to kill this child!You love him very much!Have you forgotten what I said?"Jun Wu sneered, "Of course not!If I did, I wouldn't have spent all my patience on just one person over eight hundred years!"He then turned back to Xie Lin and suddenly roared with rage.
"But he’s so stubborn, rebellious, and refuses to listen to me!No matter what you do, you won’t change your mind, will you?Then let’s see if that wall can collapse when your head is bashed against it."Seeing the High Priest’s distraction, Xie Lin replied, "I won't turn around.
I won't turn around!"Even as his vision blurred and pain surged, he clung to the answer he didn’t want to give him—never turning around.He had waited too long for this moment.
For all these years, he had been waiting for such an opportunity, shouting with tears in his eyes, "I won’t turn around!I’ll never turn around!"It was no longer Jun Wu forcing him into madness;it was Xie Lin who was driving Jun Wu mad!Jun Wu’s eyes turned bloodshot and he was about to deliver another lesson when a long sword sliced through his shoulder.
Eight arrows made of tree branches neatly pierced his back.This wasn’t much, as the blade and arrows didn’t break through the white armor.
But his right hand had disappeared.The hand holding Xie Lin—had vanished entirely from the wrist down, with clean cuts.
Xie Lin was also nowhere to be seen.Turning around again, a violent force struck him.
With his left hand, he grabbed it only to realize it was his own right hand.On the other side of the bridge, Hua Cheng cradled bloodied Xie Lin, his curved blade in reverse grip, hugging his shoulders while covering his head’s wound with his free hand.
He said coldly, "Take your dirty hands and go!"Xie Lin refused to give up, provoking him further.Furious now, he left a loophole that Hua Cheng took advantage of, successfully reclaiming Xie Lin!Jun Wu reattached his right hand back to his wrist, flexed it, and removed the arrows from his back.
He then remembered something and turned to see Mu Qing holding a long sword with a pale face.Mu Qing met Jun Wu’s gaze and stiffened momentarily but forced himself to remain calm.
But soon he couldn’t anymore.Jun Wu looked at his shoulder and said in a cool voice, "As expected, you are still far behind Xie Lin."Mu Qing's expression changed slightly, but the long sword in his hand suddenly fell.
His face turned pale as the black curse on his wrist tightened, and his meridians became prominent with blood flowing towards it.Feng Xin shouted at Mu Qing who was frozen in shock, "What are you doing?Run!"The High Priest added, "Fengxin!You forget he has an injury on his leg?"Feng Xin exclaimed, "Shit!" He had forgotten!If this were any other time, Mu Qing would have been furious and probably fainted.
But now, running was useless!The curse was still on him;where could he run?Jun Wu looked at his shoulder and said in a cool voice, "As expected, you are still far behind Xie Lin."Mu Qing’s expression changed as the long sword in his hand fell to the ground.
He quickly rolled up his sleeve to inspect his wrist.
The black curse there suddenly tightened, and his meridians stood out, showing an endless stream of blood converging towards it.Feng Xin shouted at Mu Qing who was stunned, "What are you doing?Run!"The High Priest said, "Fengxin!Don’t forget he has a leg injury."Feng Xin exclaimed, "Shit!" He had indeed forgotten that detail!Usually, Mu Qing would have been furious and fainted from the insult.
But now, running was useless!The curse was on his wrist;where could he run?The end of their confrontation brought them to this brutal reality.King Wu lanzó una maldición y se iba a acercar, pero de repente, lanzó la flecha que sacaba de su espalda hacia él.
Wind Whisper sintió un frío en el pecho y al mirar hacia abajo, vio que las ocho flechas fueron devueltas y clavadas perfectamente en su propio pecho.King Wu se acercó lentamente a Flower City y Xie Lian.
Flower City no lo miraba, abrazando a Xie Lian y diciendo: "Hermano mayor?Hermano mayor?"Xie Lian acababa de golpearse fuertemente y tardó un tiempo en despertar confusamente, con dolor de cabeza severo.
