Chapter 184 – Between Life and Death (Up)

Boom ！！！！

Before today, Yun Che had never encountered a weapon that was even heavier and more domineering than the heavy sword in his hand, but when his heavy sword, collided with the Rock Dragon Battle General’s heavy sword, he felt as if he had been bombarded by a lofty mountain that had flown down from the skies …… His right arm lost consciousness for a moment, and as the heavy sword flew far away from him, his entire being stuck to the ground and slid backwards like an an arrow slid backwards, leaving a trail more than twenty feet long on top of the ground.

Bang! The heavy sword fell from a high altitude and coincidentally landed right beside his feet, plunging deeply into the hard ground. Only in the center of the sword’s body, a two-inch long gaping hole had suddenly appeared.

After Yun Che’s body stopped, he did not move for half a day. His right arm twisted to the back at a shocking angle, and it was unknown whether it was extremely severely dislocated or had been directly smashed.

“Yun Che…… Yun Che!!!” The Little Fairy’s heart clenched as she cried out with the loudest voice she could muster. Just now, when Yun Che slid backwards, his back padded the ground, firmly protecting her in the front, not allowing her to be injured in the slightest. However, Yun Che’s injuries were already extremely heavy and incomparable. If these injuries had fallen on anyone else, they would have been fatal long ago.

In her heart, she knew even more clearly that Yun Che’s severe injuries were still because of her. If it wasn’t for the sake of protecting her, he could have used his speed to maneuver around the Rock Dragon War Admiral, and even though there was no possibility of him defeating, at the very least, he wouldn’t have become so miserable in the twinkling of an eye.

“I …… didn’t …… do anything ……”

Yun Che’s upper body tilted up a little bit, the voice from his mouth was hoarse and arduous, and when his upper body finally straightened up, the Rock Dragon War General was already less than thirty steps away from him. His right arm was still bent over his body, and he could no longer feel the existence of his right arm, only the cone of pain in his shoulder.

“Let go of me …… If you don’t want to die, let go of me right now!” Yun Che’s miserable condition caused Chu Yuechan’s eyes to tremble violently. She couldn’t understand why this man was so desperately trying to protect her …… “desperately”, without any discount! Selfishness, is human nature, cherish life, is human instinct. She couldn’t figure out why this teenager, whose body was mysterious in every way, would be so obsessed with guarding her one crippled life at the expense of her own life, her own opportunity.

“I …… won’t!” Yun Che gritted his teeth and said with heavy words.

“If you don’t let go of me …… I will bite my tongue and kill myself!”

Chu Yuechan’s words caused Yun Che’s pupils to shrink slightly, as he turned his face sideways to look at the resolute Chu Yuechan, and after the corners of his mouth twitched for a while, he suddenly let out a furious roar, “Shut up for me!”

This roar directly shouted Chu Yuechan into a daze. Standing at the top of the Xuan Power Pyramid, proudly looking down on the world, when had she ever been yelled at like this?

Yun Che’s entire body trembled as he eyed Chu Yuechan, his words clanging, “Little Fairy, listen to me well, you are not some half-step King Xuan supreme powerhouse right now, you are not the Ice Palace Fairy who stands tall and looks down on all living beings, but only a weak and vulnerable woman who is unable to protect herself! As a weak woman, the only thing you have to do now is to rely on a man who can guard you!”

“I can see that you reject men, and even have some disdain for men in your bones …… Yes, in the Cangfeng Empire, it is estimated that there is not a single man of a similar age as you who can compare to you, and in the future, you may even become the number one strongest man in the Cangfeng Empire, but this by no means means means that you can scorn all the men But that doesn’t mean that you can defy all men by any means! Because even the strongest woman will definitely have times when she must rely on a man. This was also the reason why there were still men existing in the world even though there were clearly women! If a woman didn’t even have a man in her life that she could rely on and was willing to do whatever it took to guard her, then even though she was on top of the world, she was still just a failed woman! Not even worthy of being called a truly complete woman ……”

“In terms of strength, I’m a thousand times weaker than you, but right now, I’m what you rely on! You can want to seek death, want to kill yourself, want to give up, but I won’t, because I’m a man, and a man will only fall at the moment of death when he has to guard someone.”

Yun Che slowly stood up, without his arms to keep his balance, he stood up with extra difficulty, “You want to die, I prefer not to …… The reason why I chose the heavy sword is because I want to guard the people I want to guard. And the heavy sword in my hand, the first one to guard is not my family, not my lover, not my friend, but you …… If I can’t even guard the first person I want to guard, how do I deserve to continue to use the heavy sword.”

“Today, betting on my life and all my dignity and pride, I want to let you who scorn men know …… what a …… real man is!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!”

“Uhhhhhhhh ……”

Yun Che’s eyes glared to the maximum, and in a hoarse roar, the right half of his body violently flung, throwing his dislocated right arm back in front of him, and then rigidly jammed it back into the bone position ……This process, although briefly for a split second, the pain it caused was unimaginable, and Yun Che’s brow didn’t even frown, and his right arm, which was just now returned to its position and couldn’t be strenuously moved, but reached forward and grasped on top of the hilt of the heavy sword, looking at the Rock Dragon War General who was already close at hand, he laughed, an incomparably eerie and mournful laugh.

“Burn …… heart!!!”

As the two heavy words overflowed from his mouth, his eyes, suddenly covered with a faint layer of crimson color, the second realm gate of the Evil God Xuan Vein – Burning Heart, a realm gate that he didn’t even dare to open in his full strength state, was forcibly opened by him in this state where he was at his weakest.

Within the Heavenly Poison Bead, Yun Che’s actions caused Jasmine to be shocked as she opened her lips, but immediately, the voice of stopping that almost left her mouth would be forced down again. Feeling Yun Che’s state at this moment, she was stunned for a while, and then her gaze became hazy, and in front of her eyes, the figure that haunted her soul vaguely emerged, and then in her blurred gaze, it slowly overlapped with Yun Che’s image at this moment ……

His disposition, and his brother, really seem to be the same ……

In order to guard the people he wants to guard, and also to guard his own pride and dignity ……

He knows what he is doing, and he also knows what the consequences of doing so are …… But, he will not hesitate, and no one can stop him ……

The second realm of the Evil God’s “Burning Heart” was opened, and his body, which should have been completely depleted, suddenly rose up in an incomparably manic, but also extremely unstable wave of Qi. Yun Che grabbed the heavy sword on the ground, and then with a roar, threw it towards the approaching Rock Dragon Warrior General……. On top of the sword body, a crimson Phoenix Flame burned.

“Phoenix Break!!!”

With this Phoenix Break move, it wasn’t the flaming phoenix that flew out, but the entire heavy sword!

The flames on top of the heavy sword burned furiously, transforming into a gigantic steel phoenix that charged towards the Rock Dragon War Admiral with blazing wind waves and unstoppable power. And behind it, Yun Che’s body similarly ignited the Phoenix Flame, and behind his back, a pair of magnificent and illusory Phoenix Feather Wings spread out.

“Phoenix Wings Heavenly Dome Dance!!!”

One sword and one person, one first and one second!

Bang！！！！

The heavy sword impacted on the Rock Dragon War General’s chest area, and the flames exploded, and the tremendous flame power caused the incomparably strong Rock Dragon War General’s upper body to appear to lean back drastically. Yun Che’s body also came right after him, and with a “boom”, it impacted on its upper body, and the huge impact force caused its already off-balance body to tumble to the ground.

Yun Che flipped in the air, holding Chu Yuechan tightly with one hand, grabbing the heavy sword that bounced back with the other hand, locking the Rock Dragon War Admiral’s position, and with an incomparably brutal light radiating from his eyes, he raised his heavy sword high in the air. ……

“Sky …… Wolf …… Chop!!!”

“Drink!!!”

The air currents of a large area of the surrounding space surged chaotically, and a pale wolf shadow that roared up to the sky flashed behind Yun Che, and then as he waved his heavy sword, this pale blue wolf shadow brought with it a power that was enough to collapse the sky and split the earth, and it impacted towards the front.

Boom boom boom boom ……

A huge gully spread forward along with the wolf shadow’s impact, instantly impacting the Rock Dragon War General’s fallen body, sending it flying high, the overbearing force took it straight up a hundred meters away, and smashed it heavily on the mountain wall at the back, and with the wall’s wobbling, it’s body slid down along the mountain wall straight below, and then, it was completely buried by a large area of debris crashing down from the mountain wall, with only the dark grey heavy sword remaining. The dark gray heavy sword was exposed.

Looking at everything that had happened in front of her eyes, Chu Yuechan’s eyes were dull, almost losing her ability to think.

“Did …… succeed ……?” Saying these words, Chu Yuechan had a feeling of being in a dream. Obviously so heavily injured, obviously having exhausted his strength several times, he had suddenly erupted with such amazing strength again …… He was like a monster, his body, like a bottomless pit with no limits.

But what answered her was only the ear-splitting sound of the heavy sword landing.

Chu Yuechan raised her head with difficulty, and the moment she saw Yun Che’s cheeks, her pair of pupils dilated to their maximum in an instant.

Yun Che’s eyes were closed at this moment, and within the slits of his eyes, two channels of fresh blood were flowing down. Not only his eyes, but the corners of his mouth, nostrils, and both ears, all of them were overflowing with blood.

Giggling …… giggling ……

The rupture sounds were very soft, but very dense. These rupture sounds came from Yun Che’s flesh, blood vessels, and even bones. The skin and flesh of his face, the skin and flesh of his limbs, and the skin and flesh of his body …… rapidly spread crack after crack, as thin streams of blood competed to gush out. In a few breaths of time, his entire face has been covered with fine lines, like cracks …… Below his clothes, his torso is similarly cracked in countless ways, and under the skin and flesh, the blood vessels and bones, are also covered with cracks.

Normal state open burning heart, is already full of danger, incomparably weak state but opened the burning heart, such an ending, he has expected. That chain of three moves after burning heart, exhausted all his strength and faith, and perhaps, will be his life, that bright and incomparable final luster.

Plop ……

Yun Che’s left arm loosened, the little fairy fell to the ground, and Yun Che also fell straight down, then never moved a single bit again, not even having the time to say a single word to Chu Yuechan.

“Yun Che …… Yun Che …… Yun Che!!!”

Chu Yuechan cried out loudly as she moved her only movable right hand, wanting to touch Yun Che, but as weak as she was, the half step away from Yun Che was a chasm that could not be crossed no matter how hard she tried. Looking at the motionless Yun Che, whose entire body was overflowing with blood, in Chu Yuechan’s heart, a throbbing pain came from her …… a pain that she had never felt before, as well as a deep fear – a deep fear of Yun Che’s death.

Unconsciously, she realized that her vision had completely blurred, a fact that left her dazed …… because she had actually shed tears. Already for decades did not know what tears were, never thought that one day she would cry, but actually for a man who was nearly a generation younger than herself shed tears. Strangely, it was not only the uncontrollable tears, but also the heartache that was more unbearable than a million arrows piercing through the heart, as well as the deep fear.

And before today, she was completely unaware of what tears were, what heartache was, and what fear was …… But at this moment, it was surging like a wave that couldn’t be stopped, couldn’t be blocked, couldn’t be stopped.

“Yun Che …… Yun Che!!!” She cried out over and over again, her voice powerless and sad.

Boom!

Her call did not receive a half response from Yun Che. On the other side of the mountain wall, however, the sound of rubble being smashed away came from there, and the Rock Dragon Warrior General, who had been buried under the rubble, reared up amidst the flying rubble.
