Chapter 499: 499, Kill me (first update)

Sunlight equated to hope.

The fight within the room continued, yet the sunlight outside grew increasingly intense.

It soon penetrated through the window, illuminating the interior.

A golden splendor.

Everything was granted a new life.

However, the sunlight failed to bring redemption to Mo Qingyi and Duanmu Zhe; at this moment, they had been beaten to the point of powerlessness.

’Bang bang—’

The sound of heavy objects hitting the ground; Mo Qingyi and Duanmu Zhe fell from the air and landed on the floor. As they tried to push themselves up to stand, they found that not an ounce of strength could be mustered from their bodies, and even bending a little finger proved to be an extreme difficulty.

"I’ll take care of Jun Huang first, then I’ll deal with you two little bastards." The woman in black glanced at the two on the ground and then, stepping forward, she moved towards Chu Jin.

"Don’t..." Mo Qingyi bent her fingers, trying to stand up to stop the woman in black, but as soon as she moved, her body felt as though it was being torn apart with pain, and she could only watch helplessly as the woman in black slowly approached Chu Jin.

In her eyes, there was utter despair.

"Jun Huang, you have finally fallen into my hands, hahaha." As she spoke her last words, the woman in black burst into proud laughter. Then, with a heavy killing intent flashing in her eyes, she tightly grasped the axe in her hand and fiercely chopped down towards Chu Jin.

On her body, the little white creature had long since passed out, the fresh crimson blood staining its fur as well as Chu Jin’s white clothes.

Everything appeared so shockingly vivid.

But in the eyes of the woman in black, there was clearly a flicker of pleasure.

She could finally exact her revenge on Jun Huang.

The time was right.

’Tap tap tap—’

Suddenly, a series of footsteps echoed in the air, every step resounding in everyone’s ears, carrying a biting chill. The heavy footsteps even overshadowed the sounds of the fight.

A daunting pressure rippled through the air, making it difficult to breathe.

The woman in black’s ears twitched, her brows slightly furrowed, and she froze in place, incredulously looking up towards the distance. Under the vast sunlight, a tall figure approached slowly. He lifted his phoenix eyes leisurely, bringing with them a cold glint.

His thin lips were tightly pressed together, and his already austere features seemed to be coated with a layer of frost, impervious to the splendid sunlight, as if he’d walked right out of the pinnacle of an icy mountain. With every step he took, the hearts of those around him grew colder, inciting panic, palpitations, and making him unbearable to look directly at.

Such a man was a born King.

Fear finally surfaced in the eyes of the woman in black as she stared at the man approaching head-on, her eyes widening. For a moment, a chill swept over her entire body, causing her even to forget to breathe.

From the beginning to the end, she never thought Mo Zhixuan would survive, nor did she imagine he could successfully get through the night of extreme yin! In fact, not only had Mo Zhixuan successfully made it through the night of extreme yin, but his cultivation had also improved significantly compared to before.

It was her own oversight.

The woman in black quickly dodged an invisible attack, threw aside her axe, and attempted to flee. She was no fool and knew very well that she was no match for Mo Zhixuan. To put it bluntly, she was simply not on the same level as Mo Zhixuan. Had it not been for the night of extreme yin, she wouldn’t have dared to blatantly visit the Mo family and inflict injury on so many people.

But how could Mo Zhixuan, in his rage, allow her to escape just like that? He who had been harmed was bound to seek a blood-for-blood vengeance!

Mo Zhixuan slightly lifted his eyes, and a bloodthirsty murderous intent emerged within his gaze, "In my life, I never harm women, but you are an exception!"

As the words fell, he gently raised his hand and seemingly grasped out of thin air to catch a jade flute that came with a dazzling glass charm tied to its tail—stunningly eye-catching.

The woman in black, upon seeing the jade flute, had her already terrified expression instantly turn even more horrified, as she incessantly stumbled backward.

"Brother!" Mo Qingyi, lying on the ground, brightened at the sight of the newcomer, her eyes flickering with joy. It was wonderful, her brother was back, the Mo family was saved!

Duanmu Zhe, meanwhile, closed his eyes in relief. Nine Ye had finally returned safely; now he could rest properly.

At the same time, Zhou Xunian, accompanied by several people, walked in from the outside. Seeing the scene before him, he was also taken aback and quickly ordered the injured to be carried to the back yard for treatment.

Mo Zhixuan held the jade flute and fiercely unleashed a chilling wave of light, filled with staggering lightning strikes, that crackled menacingly. Wherever it passed, it split everything into fragments, leaving the woman in black utterly powerless to retaliate, her body shrouded in thick smoke.

In the air lingered the smell of burnt flesh. Looking up again, the woman in black had been struck into charred remains by the lightning. Mo Zhixuan could have killed her with a single strike, yet he chose to keep her hanging on by a thread, half alive.

"Nine Ye, I beg you, kill me, give me a swift death..." The woman in black ’thudded’ onto her knees before Mo Zhixuan, writhing on the ground. The unbearable sensation of neither being able to live nor die, tormented by the lightning, was simply too painful. Excruciating, heart-piercing pain - she could only watch helplessly as her flesh was slowly burned away, utterly powerless. This feeling was more agonizing than death itself.

"Nine Ye, kill me, just kill me..." The woman in black wailed incessantly.

Mo Zhixuan looked at her coldly, manipulating the lightning on the jade flute. His deep eyes overflowed with towering rage and murderous intent, "To kill you, would not quell my heart’s deep-seated hatred!"

In another room.

Chu Jin’s situation seemed dire. The doctor that Zhou Xunian had brought shook his head helplessly after taking her pulse. "Xunian, it’s not that I’m shirking responsibility. Although Miss Chu isn’t from our Superpower World, she helped Nine Ye survive the extreme Yin night and is thus a great hero to our Superpower World. I’d spare no effort to save her if there was even a sliver of hope. But her condition is beyond my capabilities..."

At that, the doctor could only shake his head helplessly.

It wasn’t that he refused to save Chu Jin or that he was powerless, but that he couldn’t save her. Defying the natural order and going against the Heavenly Dao to save someone would inevitably lead to serious repercussions.

Moreover, her injuries were severe. Saving her would not be an easy task.

He wasn’t a fool to defy the Heavenly Dao for such a person.

In this world, all who oppose the Heavenly Dao meet the same fate.

Death!

Doctors cannot save everyone.

When it comes to one’s own life versus others, one’s own is always more precious.

"How could this be?" Upon hearing these words, Zhou Xunian’s eyes reddened in urgency. "Elder Zhang, you are the most renowned doctor in our Superpower World. If even you are at a loss, then my sister-in-law... She couldn’t possibly... You must be joking with me, right?"

Elder Zhang sighed and continued, "Miss Chu’s injuries are too severe, her five meridians are completely destroyed, ah..." Pausing, he added, "Xunian, life and death are the norm in the human world, and all is determined by fate. Try to accept it. This is all Miss Chu’s destiny."

"That won’t do," Zhou Xunian’s voice was hoarse from desperation. "Elder Zhang, I’m begging you, please save my sister-in-law. I know you must have a way. As long as you’re willing to treat her, I’ll do whatever you ask."

Zhou Xunian was pleading with Elder Zhang, almost ready to kneel before him.

"Elder Zhang, you can’t just stand by and watch her die..."

Upon hearing this, Elder Zhang’s face changed, and his voice grew more emphatic, "What are you saying? Didn’t I already tell you? It’s not that I won’t save her, I simply lack the capability. As a doctor, it’s my duty to save lives and help the injured. If I could save her, I would not stand by idly. No matter how skilled my medicine, I cannot snatch someone from the hands of Yama himself. Xunian, you need to come to terms with this."

Zhou Xunian said nothing. He was aware of Elder Zhang’s abilities; in the Superpower World, Elder Zhang was akin to the legendary Hua Tuo, able to restore life to the dead. Yet now, Elder Zhang was refusing to treat Chu Jin!

"Elder Zhang, for the sake of my sister-in-law saving Xianxian, please save her. If it weren’t for my sister-in-law, Xianxian wouldn’t be standing here unharmed," Zhou Xunian said, pulling Mu Xianxian to his side and pleading, "Xianxian, tell Elder Zhang it was my sister-in-law who saved you, right? Please, persuade Elder Zhang to save her."

Elder Zhang was Mu Xianxian’s uncle. Since her mother had died early and Elder Zhang had no children of his own, he had always doted on Mu Xianxian like his own daughter.
