Chapter 387: Chapter 343: Goodbye!_2

——Master, why are you staring blankly? Are you watching the excitement?

"Audrey, you’re not dead?"

The blond man exclaimed.

"Merely five Death Lords, wishing for my life, are far from sufficient," Audrey said coldly.

The man stood for a few moments, mouth agape, raising his hand then lowering it, seemingly unsure of what to say.

Finally, a stiff smile appeared on his face:

"That’s great, what’s our next plan?

Audrey shook her head and replied, "Stop acting, Magician Gus, I am very grateful for your help at the final moment of my life, which allowed me to awaken such a powerful and rare Power of Death, but I have paid my dues to you over these many years, let’s part ways here."

"I knew it would come to this...you’ve grown stronger and finally look down on me, is that it?" the man said with anger on his face.

Audrey turned away and spoke in a cold voice, "Do you really think I do not know who has been scheming all this behind the scenes? Gus, leave."

The man stood motionless, his gaze flickering.

There was a standoff for a few moments.

The man took a step forward.

Then, as if he had thought something through, he continued stepping forward, approaching Audrey.

"Audrey, although not lovers, over these long years, we have stayed by each other’s side, exploring the peak of the Death Law together—I thought I was the closest person to you."

He softened his voice, speaking tenderly.

Audrey bowed her head, falling silent.

Her shoulders trembled slightly, as if she was trying hard to control her emotions.

Ulysses, sensing trouble, immediately whispered:

"Master, go and stop him, that kid seems like he’s about to take advantage of the Ghost Queen!

Wu Xiaode just watched and did not speak.

Suddenly, the Skeleton Dog turned and said, "Ulysses is right, having paid such a huge price, only to dress someone else for their wedding—it’s a chance to advance hundreds of years less in the struggle, you must intervene immediately!"

——At this time, they were in a separate circle of mist, so the blond man and Audrey could neither see nor hear them talking.

Seeing that even the Skeleton Dog said so, Wu Xiaode then shook his head and spoke softly:

"If a person must choose a place to belong, they must present their credentials, which in the underworld means committing a theft, arson, or even killing a person."

"Just watch."

"If the Ghost Queen, after dominating the Death World for so many years, still remains so soft and easily deceived after truly understanding someone—"

Ulysses interrupted, "Women are all like this, alas, Master, you just need to coax her, and she will be yours, understand?"

"No," Wu Xiaode said indifferently, "I have already witnessed Audrey’s character, she is neither weak nor mindless, and I also admire her for agreeing to be my Shadow Follower before I even finished laying out the conditions; I also admire her willingness to let her soul be destroyed rather than give the enemy any chances."

While he spoke, the blond man had already stretched out his hand, gently resting it on Audrey’s fragrant shoulder.

Audrey did not move.

Ulysses and the Skeleton Dog both grew anxious, looking together at Wu Xiaode.

Wu Xiaode was expressionless and spoke softly:

"I want her to prove my judgment, prove she is a worthy partner, if I am mistaken, then we will no longer concern ourselves with the affairs of the Ghost Clan afterward, and need never meet again."

As his words fell,

Audrey’s voice finally rose:

"Gus, after liking me for so many years, why couldn’t you wait a bit longer?"

"Wait?" the blond man was stunned.

"Yes," Audrey said, half wistful, half sorrowful, "You are just an ordinary Ghost Body, while my abilities are those of the Ghost Master, I must reach the next Level to control the powers within me, so that they won’t hurt you when you come close."

The blond man’s mouth hung open.

"But because of my rejection, you finally began to hate me, haven’t you?" Audrey said with a bitter smile.

Ulysses took a bite of melon.

Wu Xiaode and the Skeleton Dog quietly watched.

"You betrayed me—don’t make excuses, I am very aware of how much authority and benefits they offered you, you finally betrayed me," Audrey said.

The blond man spoke falteringly, "That was because I was blinded, Audrey, give me another chance. I really—"

"I can’t stand deceit in my sight. Just leave," Audrey said with an icy tone.

"Considering—"

"Leave."

Audrey stretched her hand and clenched it in the air.

A roll of parchment emitting a golden light suddenly appeared around the man’s body.

"Our ties are hereby erased, and from now on, there is no relation between us whatsoever."

As her voice fell.

The parchment landed in Audrey’s hand.

She tore it forcefully.

The parchment instantly turned into fragments.

A row of icy crystal characters appeared in front of Wu Xiaode:

"Your shadow follower has destroyed a super high-level protective contract, ending the relationship with a certain ghost."

The expression on the blond man’s face changed repeatedly. He spoke again, "Audrey, have you also forgotten how I saved you back then?"

He extended his other hand, attempting to embrace her.

But another hand appeared in the void.

A bronze hand.

Several bronze hands lifted the man and pulled him far away, controlling him.

"She said she didn’t want to be involved with you anymore. Didn’t you understand?"

Wu Xiaode’s voice came through.

—It was not until Audrey made her decision, that he finally emerged from the mist.

The blond man struggled constantly, but an even larger bronze hand restrained him.

The One-eyed Giant was obscured in the mist, only revealing a hand that seized him.

Realizing he could not break free, the man finally stopped, panting and glancing at Wu Xiaode before turning to look at Audrey.

"Damned pretty boy... I was wondering how Audrey could change. It’s because of you!"

He muttered resentfully.

"Pretty boy?"

Wu Xiaode touched his face, showing a pleased expression as if he had been complimented.

He walked straight to Audrey’s side, gazing with her into the vast distance.

"For people of the Death Lord level, if someone wrongs you, let them die," Wu Xiaode said flatly.

"But there are too many past events I can’t forget," Audrey sighed.

"Carrying too much isn’t good, but fortunately, in the Death World, there’s something good," Wu Xiaode added.

"What is it?" Audrey asked.

"Time is long. If you feel that something binds you, break free from it and go find the place you love—you can always start over."

"And the past?"

"Let’s be strangers from then on—I know you’ve already decided not to look back. The rest I can handle for you."

After speaking, he walked up to the blond man and smiled:

"Thanks for calling me handsome, but Audrey doesn’t want to see you ever again. So, we shall—"

"Part ways everafter."

Clang!

The sword was drawn swiftly across the neck.

Blood spurted up to the sky.

The head fell to the ground.
