Chapter 131: Nirvana! The Black Phoenix

If it was just Paglio’s venom sprayed at Broc, maybe it would not even touch him. However, with the power of the thunderball, it was a different matter.

With the effect of the thunderball’s explosion, the venom was the same as a grenade containing a strong corrosion. It penetrated Broc’s surface defenses, seeping straight into his body. Gust after gust of green smoke was released. Even his face and eyes were splattered with it.

Because Chen Rui blew it up while lying on the ground, so it was the lower half of Broc’s body that suffered the greatest damage.

Broc tightly covered the right eye that got splattered with venom and also covered a certain part on the lower half of his body, letting out shrill growls. He never thought that this pathetic ant could inflict such damage on a powerful Demon Emperor. Not just heavy injuries, but he feared that the venom that entered his body due to the explosion was circulating rapidly within his body. Even with his Demon Emperor powers, he could not stop it!

In between cries, Broc stomped on Chen Rui’s chest with his foot. All of a sudden, the bones cracked, penetrating through the chest straight into the soil, then slowly pulling them out. Chen Rui could not feel the pain already. His body was not on par with a Demon Emperor. The thunderball explosion just now was realistically a suicide mission; he was already fatally injured.

No matter how powerful his special characteristics and was a special state of deep sleep. During the state, she was too weak to use any powers, but she could feel everything that happened within a ten kilometer radius in her dreams.

Everything he did, she knew.

Chen Rui could hear a bit of what she was saying, but he was already unable to speak. Sigh, I luckily didn’t bet with that asshole. Her first sentence is actually not “stupid man”?

“Stupid man!”

So it is her second sentence.

Chen Rui used all his strength to move the corners of his mouth, trying to force a smile.

My soul is going to disappear.

How regretful. There are still so many things left undone.

Impulse is really devil. Am I going to behave rashly next time?

Probably… not.

Well, I am just a stupid man.

That forced smile on his bloody face looked a bit ferocious, but Christina’s beautiful eyes were calm like water. Only one crystalline tear quietly rolled down her pale face.

Even Christina herself was a bit surprised. She did not remember how long it had been since the last time she cried. From the time she took care of her rebellious relatives herself, tears and bonds left her side, only leaving behind ruthless calm and loneliness. Leaning on that ice cold throne, she calmly faced all sorts of cruelties, dangers, deceit, greed, desires… This stupid man is so strong that he even affects me right before he dies… damn it!

However… but… I should just follow my heart this one time. This… is not for him, but for my rare capricious this time. Just take it as a release from my long-term depression.

Anyhow, she would return to that throne very soon. She was still the cold, haughty ruler.

Christina extended her hand and pulled up her sleeve. Fresh blood suddenly flowed from her porcelain white hand. The blood dripped onto the scary wound on Chen Rui’s chest, and the wound began to heal at a speed that the human eye could detect. Not only the wound, but even Chen Rui’s disappearing spirit was recondensing under the strange energy.

“We don’t owe each other anymore after this…” Chen Rui could not see it himself, but a faint phoenix mark vaguely appeared in the blood that Christina dripped, burying into his healed chest.

Under the effect of this amazing power, his gravely injured chest and limbs began to recover slowly. Even though his internal injuries were still severe, but he was already rejuvenating, becoming a completely different person from the person who was on the verge of dying just now. Chen Rui’s eyelids felt especially heavy. He could only vaguely hear one line uttered into his ear, “The next we meet will be your death sentence…”

He struggled to open his eyes to look at Christina, but in the end, he was unable to fight the fatigue and finally succumbed to sleep.
