Chapter 172: People Die When They Are Killed!
"Ugh... damn it......"
Yanqing struggled desperately to pry open Blade's arm clamped around his neck, but his physical strength was never a match for the other man's to begin with. Now, with his brain severely oxygen-deprived, it was even harder to muster the strength to break free, and he was completely unable to concentrate enough to control the frost blades that had already fallen to the ground and shattered.
And clearly, Blade would absolutely not hold back his strength like Kevin did when teaching a lesson to a kid—one could say his actions were entirely aimed at killing the other.
Because at this very moment, that was the only thing he knew how to use.
"What's wrong? Weren't you acting all high and mighty just now? Can't keep it up anymore?"
It seemed the injury that pierced through his body had further aggravated his Mara-struck state. Even though Blade's expression remained calm, when Yanqing looked into those eyes that seemed to burn with flames, he even felt as if he were staring into the eyes of a vengeful ghost that had crawled out of hell.
Crack—crack—
As Blade continuously increased the force in his hand, Yanqing's neck gradually began to emit several unbearable cracking sounds... In just a few short seconds, Yanqing felt as if years had passed, as if he were already standing at the gates of hell.
He wasn't unable to accept his own defeat and death, but... if he died so carelessly like this, wouldn't it be too embarrassing for the General...
"You there... let go of that child right now!"
Fortunately, just as Yanqing felt he was about to lose consciousness the next second, an azure-blue spear almost arrived simultaneously with the shout, swishing past Blade's wrist that tightly gripped Yanqing's neck.
Thud—
As soon as Yanqing fell to the ground, he felt someone behind him already helping him up. After gasping for breath for several seconds and opening his eyes dazedly, he realized that several people had somehow crowded around him, and standing at the forefront was the figure of a young man holding a spear.
"Not in vain I waited so long, you've finally come! The timing is just right... it's time to repay the debt! The time has come!"
Upon seeing the newcomer's appearance, Blade didn't even glance at the injury on his wrist. Instead, he seemed to grow even more excited: "You think changing into this appearance can let you escape?! Can you escape......"
"I've already told you, and that woman, many times. I am Dan Heng... I have nothing to do with your past."
In contrast to Blade's demeanor was Dan Heng's completely indifferent expression. He clearly had no interest whatsoever in these nonsensical matters.
"I know, I know. Dan Heng... that excuse again. You think by putting on another face, changing to another identity, past sins can be wiped clean? You... you haven't even experienced 'death'......"
Blade tightened his grip on the longsword in his hand and without another word, strode forward, charging fiercely towards Dan Heng: "I'll make you feel this pain! Dan Heng, I'll make you know the pain of 'death'!"
Bang—!
Facing Blade's charge, Dan Heng naturally had no choice but to avoid it. He could only raise the spear in his hand to meet the other's blade. But this only made the guy opposite him even more excited.
"That's right, just like that! Hahahaha, come on, come fight me with all you've got!"
Blade's offensive was extremely aggressive; he didn't even care about defending himself at all. As a result, Dan Heng could only constantly defend and retreat under those repeated attacks...
"Fighting is like forging again and again. Like flames melting away impurities, revealing a person's inner nature... And you, Dan Heng... your nature will not change!"
Bang—! Bang—! Bang—!
Several more consecutive weapon clashes followed. It was as if Blade knew Dan Heng and his spear extremely well; almost every time Dan Heng attempted some technique, Blade could easily interrupt it. In the end, even Dan Heng's spear was sent flying high into the air from the impact of immense force.
The next second, Blade unhesitatingly reversed his grip on his sword and thrust it fiercely towards Dan Heng's chest. And it was precisely at this moment that March 7th and the others couldn't stand by any longer.
—Bang!
Without hesitation, Stelle swung her baseball bat and knocked away the longsword Blade thrust forward, standing together with March 7th in front of Dan Heng.
As for Welt, the adult figure... he was currently blocking in front of Kafka, constantly on guard against this woman suddenly joining the fray and disrupting the situation.
"Hey! I finally started thinking you Stellaron Hunters might not necessarily be bad people... and then you suddenly try to attack Dan Heng?!"
March 7th mercilessly berated Blade. After glancing at Kafka in the distance again, she didn't forget to remind Stelle beside her: "Be careful, Stelle! You can't be fooled by that kind of bad woman again this time!"
One Stelle and one little Elysia—why do these two freeze up whenever they see a bad woman?
In the end, it's still March 7th who's smart; she would never be fooled by such bad guys. She's clever herself!
"Companions? Being companions with this guy isn't a very safe thing, little girl."
Who would have thought that after seeing the few people blocking in front of Dan Heng, Blade curled up the corner of his mouth as if seeing some huge joke and spoke coldly: "Do you know that among the companions who were once as close as brothers with this guy... except for that fellow Jing Yuan, all have died at least once."
"What does that have to do with you! You talk as if you were one of his former companions!"
Hearing this, March 7th put her hands on her hips without a care and retorted: "And what you're saying is way too weird! Who can die more than once? Don't you just die completely after dying once?"
People die when they are killed—isn't that common sense?!
Who can have their heart stop beating, their brain stop working, and then jump back up and live another life? That would just turn them into monsters!
"Yes, yes... you're right. That's how this world should be. Once the body dies, everything ends... But there are always those who don't believe in such reasoning, so they cause great disasters. That's why... they need to repay the debt. A debt that can only be repaid by true 'death'!"
The more he conversed with everyone, the more frenzied Blade's state became. After just a few more words, he fixed his gaze on Dan Heng behind the two and charged forward without hesitation!
"We should have done this long ago!!!!!!!!"
