“Is that the only reason? What's your basis?”
“There's no need for so many bases. In any case, I don't think I've misjudged you, Su Luo.”
“I hope so. I can't guarantee what I’ll do in the future.”
To Su Luo's surprise, this was Li Siyi's thinking, but he still couldn't understand how Li Siyi could understand him.
Recalling the past, it seemed that Li Siyi always coordinated with him at crucial moments.
Could she really understand him? Was he that easy to read?
What a joke, after all those restarts, he had eaten more salt than she had eaten rice. How could he be easy to understand?
But, if there really was someone who understood him so well, it didn’t seem so bad.
Afterwards, Su Luo left.
It was time to return to Wei Changli.
Without any surprises, Su Luo found Wei Changli and immediately acted in a pitiful manner.
“Wei Changli, the Demon Lord, I encountered Lin Xuan. You must go and kill him.”
As soon as he approached Wei Changli, Su Luo felt something was off.
Stepping into the formation, though it was cleverly hidden, it couldn’t fool Su Luo.
Moreover, when Su Luo appeared, the other eight Demon Blades had already surrounded him without him noticing.
“What’s wrong? Wei Changli?”
“Don’t act innocent. It’s exactly what you think. I’m going to finish you off here.” Wei Changli laughed triumphantly, as everything was ready.
“If you kill me, you won’t survive either. Are you really sure about this?”
“Yes, even if I die, I’ll die after you. You won’t see it, but I’ll witness your death. I win.”
Wei Changli had already shown a crazy smile, as if he wasn’t afraid of death.
Su Luo hadn’t expected that Wei Changli would be so unafraid of death. What was going on?
Before Su Luo could ask, the Kuang Yu formation had already activated.
Black mist filled the area, faintly containing countless shrieking shadows.
These shadows could both attack and defend, and as long as the formation existed, these shadows would never be exhausted. In fact, they would only grow stronger the longer the formation was active.
Su Luo couldn't help but exclaim: "What a grand gesture. The spiritual stones consumed by this formation must be quite substantial. Just to deal with me?"
“Yes, it’s all been meticulously prepared for you. I know, you’ve been hiding your strength, but today, you won’t escape.” Wei Changli felt more confident than ever.
Su Luo shook his head, “You still underestimate me.”
With a casual movement, he took out some spiritual stones and tossed them in four directions.
The Mad Prison formation, which was about to take effect, immediately faltered. All the formation eyes were destroyed, and the entire formation quickly collapsed.
This wasn’t as simple as it looked. First, one had to know where the formation eyes were. Under the influence of the mist, finding the formation eyes was extremely difficult.
In fact, the formation also had protective mechanisms. To destroy the formation eyes, one had to break through the defense of the shadows.
But none of these were problems for Su Luo. He could identify the formation’s location with a single glance, and his stone-throwing technique was extraordinary. The formation’s protective mechanisms, which relied on the shadows, couldn’t do anything to stop him.
“Without the formation, what will you do?” Su Luo asked curiously.
Wei Changli’s smile froze, gradually turning grim. He truly hadn’t expected that the formation, which had taken a vast amount of time and resources to set up, would be rendered ineffective before it even worked.
But even so, he wouldn’t back down.
“Kill him.”
At Wei Changli’s command, the eight subordinates attacked Su Luo together.
Su Luo simply stepped aside and dodged all the attacks, then countered and killed one instantly.
The remaining seven acted as if they had no emotions, showing no sorrow for their comrade’s death, immediately launching another attack.
However, Su Luo was faster. Before one of them could move, he killed him.
Killing them one by one was too slow.
Su Luo directly activated【What I See Is Explosion】.
After activating it, he turned around, and behind him, explosions were constant.
By the time it ended, the eight subordinates were in pieces, the scene extremely gory.
If fighting these worthless subordinates required three hundred rounds, it would be too disrespectful to Su Luo.
Su Luo continued to ask, “Your subordinates are gone. I’m curious, will you continue?”
If it were the old Wei Changli, he would have already run away by now.
But this time, although Wei Changli was surprised by Su Luo’s strength, he didn’t retreat. Instead, he took a step forward.
“I didn’t expect you to be so strong. I underestimated you.”
“But...”
Wei Changli clapped his hands together.
“You’ve also underestimated my fury.”
With a roar, the energy from his fallen subordinates’ bodies surged toward Wei Changli.
After absorbing this eerie energy, red lines covered Wei Changli’s body, and his face was extremely distorted as he endured immense pain.
But his cultivation was skyrocketing.
From Perfection to Nascent Soul.
Wei Changli was almost losing his mind, but thinking of the humiliation Su Luo had inflicted on him, he managed to retain his sanity.
These eight subordinates were all carefully cultivated by him, with intricately cultivated parasitic insects inside them.
They could sacrifice their lives and transfer all their power to Wei Changli.
Although they were already dead, it was only recently, so the effect of the Gu insect could still be activated.
Using this move, Wei Changli might lose his sanity and continue to wreak havoc.
Even if he maintained his sanity, his cultivation would plummet afterward.
But Wei Changli had already disregarded the consequences. He just wanted Su Luo dead.
And this spell didn't disappoint him. His strength was unprecedented, reaching the initial stage of the Nascent Soul, a realm he had never touched before.
“Is this really necessary?” Su Luo truly hadn’t expected Wei Changli to hate him so much.
Su Luo had thought he had been holding the reins well, pushing Wei Changli’s nerves to the brink without breaking them.
But it seemed that now he had completely fallen apart.
But Su Luo still believed he had done well. Did someone deal him a fatal blow? But there seemed to be no such person.
“It is, Su Luo, you taught me that.”
Wei Changli’s fists were filled with icy energy, and the ground was rapidly freezing.
“Dignity is above life!”
With that, Wei Changli rubbed out a massive ice orb and slammed it toward Su Luo.
“I never thought I’d hear dignity from your lips. Then let me show you what’s truly important.”
Su Luo pointed a finger and shattered the ice orb.
At that moment, Wei Changli was already behind him, delivering a kick.
Su Luo blocked with his left hand.
A massive amount of frost erupted behind Su Luo, showing the kick’s considerable power, yet it still didn’t hurt him.
“Is that all? Your time is ticking.”
Wei Changli grit his teeth, retreating hundreds of meters.
Then he charged again, his body continuously freezing, accumulating power, and then ramming into Su Luo.
Su Luo delivered a swift kick, sending Wei Changli flying. The ice, which should have been extremely strong, shattered like paper.
Wei Changli was bewildered, but he couldn't stop. Think, what other attack methods are there?
However, no matter how Wei Changli attacked, Su Luo easily deflected them.
He couldn't lose. He was fighting with the lives of eight subordinates on his shoulders. Don't give up, absolutely don't lose.
But sheer willpower wasn’t enough to affect Su Luo.
Countless attacks, countless failures.
At this point, Wei Changli was thinking, how could he possibly kill Su Luo?
But his mind was blank. He couldn’t think of anything.
Despair continued to spread in Wei Changli’s heart.
In the end, Su Luo's slightly serious punch knocked Wei Changli's initial cultivation back and left him unable to stand.
He could only watch as the effects of the spell gradually disappeared, along with Wei Changli’s hope.
If this still didn’t solve Su Luo, then there was absolutely no hope.
Su Luo looked down at Wei Changli, “So, now, what do you think is above life?”
“...Please, spare me...”"
