Ethereal World: Vicious Cannon Fodder's Immortality Road novel Chapter 34

Chapter 34: She Is About To Die [Her Principles]

[Yifu Pavilion, Zhiwu City, Outer Domain]

Is this the power of the Nascent Soul period?

Huang Ying Yue's face, which was already bloodless due to the intense pressure, is now even more pale because of the pain.

She was like a dying fish on the land that craved the water. Nevertheless, she just frowned as her eyes lost their luster.

She tried to mobilize her spiritual power to resist the pressure, but before her spiritual power rose, Sima Ke Xin's used more of his strength to suppress her.

Huang Ying Yue only felt blurry around her. She couldn't hear or see anything at all. No matter how fast she grows stronger, there'll still be countless people who are more powerful than her. That's why she never thinks that she is strong or arrogant just because she advanced faster and has the treasures that no one has.

Sima Ke Xin looked at the girl who was lying under him in blood. The girl looked pale; blood flowed from her mouth, wetting her neck and cheeks.

Her head was wounded, and there was also blood wetting her soft hair and clothes. The girl looked miserable and weak. He could smell the faint fragrance of some kind of flower mixed with the smell of blood emitted from her body.

This kind of smell was sweet, calm, and refreshing. He didn't remember that she had this kind of smell. In the past, her smell was so full of cosmetic powders and strong perfume fragrances that he felt nausea.

He looked into her eyes, only to be shaken up again by her. Inside the pair of dark black eyes, there was no such thing as fear, timidity, or fury.

There were only two things inside her eyes.

Indifferent and calm.

Such an expression when she was facing the desperation of death—who could be like this? At least he has never seen one.

Who wasn't afraid of death? Who didn't want to survive? Yet... She was so calm, as if she were not afraid of dying and expected everything that she would face.

Sima Ke Xin noticed her movement to mobilize her spiritual power to resist him, but she failed. It meant that she wanted to survive, but she was powerless to fight back.

His right hand that was holding her neck loosened a little, but then he remembered the past—the way she tried to harass him, the way she tried to rape him, the way she attempted to scheme against him to get his attention, as well as the way that she hurt Huang Bai Xing again and again.

Huang Wan Yan, who was in the corner, tried to break free from Huang Ying Yue's spell. He didn't want anything to happen to her. He wanted to take away the hand that was grabbing her neck tightly.

Likewise, he didn't want her to die. He just didn't want to. His always expressionless face is now filled with anger and unwillingness. He didn't even know; how could she be more powerful than him?

He wasn't jealous of her strength, but he was unwilling because of his weakness; he couldn't even help her now. He could only stand here and look at her being pressed down painfully.

For the first time in his life, he hates his powerlessness. In the past, he didn't care about his strength. He has no desire after his father and everyone abandoned him. He didn't even care whether he was powerful or not.

But today, he wished that he cared more. So he won't hate himself like he does now.

Hate?

Huang Wan Yan was in a daze. Is this feeling called hate? Unwillingness? He frowned and calmed his mood. Then he started to mobilize his spiritual power to unlock the spell.

Helan Yuze looked at Huang Ying Yue's miserable state and was shocked when he saw Sima Ke Xin, who was always gentle, became ferocious and wanted to kill Huang Ying Yue.

His first reaction was to stop Sima Ke Xin from killing her; since she was also his fiancé in name, he couldn't stand still and allow someone to kill her in front of him. But Huang Bai Xing seemed to notice his movement; she buried her face in his hard chest.

"Yuze, look at me." Huang Bai Xing's beautiful voice sounded with a trace of charm.

Helan Yuze was distracted. He has never heard Xing'er's voice like this. He looked at the girl in the white robe who was in his embrace.

"I accept your feelings toward me. You can be my man." She whispered into his ears seductively.

Helan Yuze was stunned. Did she just say that she accepted his feelings for her? His mood was messy; he should be happy, but he felt that something was wrong. What's wrong?

He subconsciously turned to look at Huang Ying Yue's expression.
