Chapter 277: Chapter 277: How Heartbreaking It Is Without You

Shi Feng didn’t say anything to the giant; instead, he directly showed him, as his right hand formed a palm, with the palm facing towards the enormous Blood-colored Stone Stele.

At that moment, the Blood-colored Stone Stele that stood on the mountaintop began to shake violently, quaking, roaring, and bellowing. As the stele shook, the entire Blood-colored Peak also swayed fiercely, as if an earthquake had occurred.

Following that, amidst the shaking of the Blood-colored Stone Stele, "Boom!" there was a sudden explosion. The onlookers saw the huge Blood-colored Stone Stele suddenly lift from the ground, shooting straight up into the sky.

Once the stele moved and even took flight, in an instant, the prohibitions and arrays laid down by the Blood-colored Clan on the Blood-colored Peak dissipated suddenly.

"My... My realm has been restored!"

"Ah, the stele, the Blood-colored Stone Stele, has been obtained by the Black-clothed Death God. My stele, mine!"

"Kill!" Some Martial Artists sensed the restoration of their realm, hastily swallowed pills to restore their Primordial Power, absorbed Primordial Stones, and with a cold shout, they stared at Shi Feng, fixated on the Blood-colored Stone Stele soaring into the sky, their eyes revealing undisguised greed.

"Howl! Howl! Howl! Howl!" The giant, sensing the changes in the Blood-colored Peak and the disappearance of prohibition after prohibition, array after array, gradually became semi-transparent as his body began to transform into regular human flesh and blood. The giant excitedly lifted his head to let out thunderous howls, clenching his fists and pounding his chest repeatedly to express the excitement in his heart.

One Martial Artist after another, greedy for the Blood-colored Stone Stele and seeing the giant, who emitted an aura even stronger than before, calmed down instantly.

As the giant’s semi-transparent body reverted to normal flesh and blood, it absorbed energy from the heaven and earth vigorously, like a whale gulping water, and his aura was growing rapidly, quickly becoming stronger.

The Martial Artists looked at the giant as if staring into an endless expanse of ocean, unable to see its edges or fathom the limits of his strength, but they had a feeling that in front of this giant, they were nothing but insignificant ants which he could annihilate with just a flick of his finger.

"Ha ha ha ha ha!" Feeling the surging power inside him, the giant laughed heartily. Then, just like the Blood-colored Stone Stele, he shot up towards the Void, clenching his massive fist and delivering a fierce punch, directly blasting the Blood-colored Void.

"Crack!" A thunderous boom echoed, as if a massive thunder had exploded within the Blood-colored Void. Instantly, people saw under the giant’s fist, the space shattered, revealing blood-colored cracks, which then spread like a spider web in all directions.

"Crack!" After one punch, the giant followed with another. The already cracked Void now shattered like glass under the second punch, and a colossal Blood-colored Void appeared above this space. The giant’s body surged upwards once more, plunging into the Blood-colored Void.

"This heartless guy, just like that he’s gone!" Shi Feng watched the giant’s huge form disappear above, murmuring softly. Then, with a thought, the Blood-colored Stone Stele that had soared into the sky rapidly fell back towards the mountaintop below.

"Kill!" Seeing the giant vanish, a Martial Artist who could no longer suppress his greed, now fully restored in realm by the pills and Primordial Stones, suddenly erupted with fierce flames and dashed straight for the top of the Blood-colored Peak.

Then, one Martial Artist after another rushed towards the peak.

"Let’s go! The Heavenly Earth Strange Treasure is there for anyone to claim." Lin Yuexin, beside Princess Zi Yun, said to her.

However, at that moment, Lin Yuexin saw Princess Zi Yun shake her head and say, "I don’t wish to compete with him." After speaking, Princess Zi Yun stopped paying attention to Lin Yuexin and turned her gaze towards the mountaintop, towards the figure in the Blood-colored Battle Armor.

"Zi Yun... you!" Lin Yuexin felt a strange, bitter sensation rise in her heart upon seeing this. She could sense something was off from the look in Princess Zi Yun’s eyes, "Zi Yun! Have you fallen in love with this man?" Lin Yuexin shouted.

Hearing Lin Yuexin’s words, Princess Zi Yun shifted her gaze from Shi Feng back to Lin Yuexin and said, "Sister Yuel Xin, I think... I have fallen for him."

"You! You! How is that possible, Zi Yun? How could you fall for this man? How could you possibly be attracted to men!" Hearing Princess Zi Yun’s words, Lin Yuexin felt not only heartache but also loss, as if something precious had been dropped, feeling empty inside. While speaking, her beautiful and delicate face was already showing signs of agitation.

"Sister Yuel Xin, didn’t you say... that our relationship wouldn’t lead to anything?" Princess Zi Yun still gazed at Lin Yuexin seriously as she spoke.

"I!" Lin Yuexin was momentarily at a loss for words. She had indeed said something like that to Zi Yun, thinking that their relationship wouldn’t lead to anything good and should end, but in her heart, she was utterly unwilling to let go of Zi Yun.

"Tell me, Zi Yun, why do you like him! Why would you like this man!" While speaking these words, twin trails of tears already slid down Lin Yuexin’s cheeks. Her naturally stunning and charming face now looked even more pitiable.

"Why do I like him!" Princess Zi Yun muttered these words from Lin Yuexin and, unconsciously, turned her head slowly back towards that blood-colored figure.

Shi Feng stood at the peak of the mountain, looking up at the sky, facing the wind, with his hair flying wildly. The Blood-colored Cloak behind the Blood-colored Battle Armor also fluttered violently in the fierce wind. At this moment, in Princess Zi Yun’s eyes, Shi Feng appeared like a Blood-colored Divine Demon. And Princess Zi Yun knew that by now, all eyes in this world must have been drawn to this figure, a man so outstanding, so captivating to the public.

With the answer in her heart, Princess Zi Yun said to Lin Yuexin, "Sister Yuel Xin, the reason I didn’t like men before is because the ones I met were just too inferior. In our Heavenly Mist Empire, I felt there was no man who could compare to him. He may be obscure now, but I believe it won’t be long before his name shakes the world; I am convinced he has that ability."

"No! He will not have the chance!" Lin Yuexin’s face grew colder as she heard Princess Zi Yun’s words, speaking coldly. A murderous intent began to surface on her face, "It won’t be long before this man ceases to exist. Zi Yun, I must wrest you back from his hands. I now realize how painful it is to be without you, to lose you!"
