Chapter 52 Kill (Additional 1)_2
Although he had many conflicts with that child before and disapproved of many of his actions and behaviors, though disappointed, he had always treated him as his own child, hoping he would become better.
But now, he was dead?
Li Tian Gang's mind seemed numbed, and after a long while, hot tears finally seeped from his eyes.
He thought of those moments in the courtyard.
The child drawing in the yard, smiling happily.
The child chatting lively with his second uncle.
The child lying leisurely on the rocking chair.
Time and again, he had watched all this with a frown.
But now, he could never see it again.
Not even the child's playful figure!!
"This is fake, it has to be fake, right, Qingqing?"
Li Tian Gang's voice carried a raspy and trembling tone. Having witnessed the life and death of hundreds of thousands of soldiers in Northern Yan, seeing Li Fu and Yu Xuan die before his eyes, his heart ached to the extreme, but he never shed tears. His father had once said, "A man only bleeds on the battlefield, not cry!"
But now, he had shed tears.
Ji Qingqing could only sob, unable to respond to his words.
"The Hao Er you mentioned..."
By now, Ji Yunqing next to him had come to his senses, his pupils dilating, trembling as if in an earthquake, shockingly said, "Could it be Le Ping?!"
Hearing this name, Ji Qingqing's sorrow intensified:
"Le Ping is the name I gave him, Tiangang, did you tell him? It's my fault; I led him to his death..."
Ji Yunqing froze, somewhat dazed.n/ô/vel/b//jn dot c//om
The child fell into the abyss?
He couldn't believe what he had heard, but the child had become famous throughout the Ji Family in the Pride of Heaven Battle, defeating all the heavenly talents, fighting Holy Bones with his own flesh and blood, breaking the Dao Domain to forge an invincible myth, and yet, he died here?
A rising star, not yet at his brightest moment, had rapidly fallen? Your adventure continues at empire
"How could this happen, the chains, this..."
Ji Yunqing looked up and immediately saw the tilting state of Qiu Tian Dao, his pupils contracted, and he instantly realized what had happened.
He felt a rush of blood to his face, grief welling up inside him:
"Why not overturn our Abyss Sky Stele, why must it be that child's, why?!!"
His angry roar echoed to the island, and those who had pushed the stele earlier all changed their expressions. If they could choose again, they might consider pushing over this stele first, but the situation had been too urgent at the time to consider much.
"I would rather we fell, not that child; he was so young, so young!!"
Ji Yunqing mournfully roared. That was the most outstanding pride of the Ji Family over a thousand years, defeated the Dao Domain with the Three Immortalities, broke legends, even earned the favor of a Saint, and yet, he had fallen.
He couldn't accept that the light of hope for the Ji Family's future had been extinguished.
"You should die, all of you should die!!"
Ji Yunqing's eyes filled with bloodshot, his sorrow transforming into an overwhelming killing intent, glaring furiously at everyone on the island.
Everyone changed color, including an ancient figure from the Dao Domain whose expression was particularly grim. Ji Yunqing was of the Grand Tao of Peace Realm, and even if he burnt his Divine Soul, he would not be his match, especially in such poor condition.
When Li Tian Gang heard Ji Yunqing's angry roar, he trembled and realized the reason.
Looking at the remaining chain hanging vertical to the sky, he felt his heart tremble, an indescribable impulse, even a desire to vomit blood.
Was this to say he had indirectly caused Li Hao's death?
If he hadn't come, they wouldn't have been on this chain, and the two overturned chains would not have involved Li Hao's!
Realizing this, his head again roared like burning his moral principles.
Had he sent Li Hao to his death?!
But he had clearly just come to apologize…
Why did it end up like this?
Li Tian Gang's eyes became empty, and he was speechless.
...
...
In the abyss.
When Li Hao was struck down by the Abyss Sky Stele, the force of the rapidly descending stele caused pain in his flesh.
Falling close to the abyss, nearing the Demon Saint, Li Hao finally struggled to push the Abyss Sky Stele off him, wiped the blood from his face, and then rapidly climbed to the other side of the stele, activating the Saint's mark within him.
At this moment, only this Saint's mark could help him escape.
As his consciousness touched it, silver brilliance blossomed from the mark but then receded, returning to its original state.
Li Hao's expression changed drastically, touched it again, the silver light blossomed once more, only to revert as before.
Was it blocked by this demon?
Li Hao felt a mix of shock and rage, touching it repeatedly, but to no avail.
Darkness and a foul smell surrounded him from all sides; seven or eight tentacles that had previously entwined the chains now slapped towards him at this moment.
Li Hao's eyes revealed despair. Was he really going to die here?
Looking at the unreachable sky, he suddenly realized that no one cared about his life or death.
The despair in his eyes turned to anger, becoming a boundless blaze, issuing a thunderous roar, but under the suppression of the Demon Saint's laws, his voice couldn't spread, like a silent scream.
He angrily swung his fists, recklessly smashing at the tentacles.
With a bang, a tentacle knocked the Abyss Sky Stele along with the chains away. Another tentacle, however, came howling towards Li Hao, its force already seeming to crush every bone in his body.
And the young man, filled with despair, roared madly as he threw his punches.
As they collided, a tentacle fell, smacking Li Hao into the giant, split maw of a Blood Lotus.
