Chapter 1386 1384: Death Throes
Despite Zhu Ruoling's rampage!
The entire Fire Clan prison was filled with burning arrows, raining down towards Xu Tianrui like a firestorm, impossible to evade, blotting out the sun!
The prison was instantly illuminated brightly.
The firelight shone on Xu Tianrui's face. Although he dragged a crippled arm, his face showed no tension or panic, still wearing a slight cold smile.
Zhu Qilue also showed no surprise, his face carrying the same expression as before.
Despair!
Utter despair!
Despair of losing all hope!
Because no matter how Zhu Ruoling struggled, she was not a match for Xu Tianrui.
He didn't even need to look up to know that Xu Tianrui wouldn't be hurt in the slightest.
The reason why his right arm was wounded earlier was mainly because Xu Tianrui let his guard down, which allowed Zhu Ruoling's sneak attack to succeed.
It wasn't because of Zhu Ruoling's superior skills.
"Still want to have a deathbed struggle?"
Xu Tianrui laughed coldly, facing the arrows like a firestorm, he let out a soft sigh.
A terrifyingly majestic presence burst out from him.
Bang!
A wave of immense pressure surged from his body, spreading in all directions.
Zhu Qilue, unprepared, was directly hit by the shock wave, his body flying and heavily crashing against the wall behind him once more.
As for those arrows like a firestorm, though they could break through the first wave of interception, by the second, third, even the fourth wave, they became just feeble bolts at the end of their flight.
Ultimately.
In front of the final shock wave, they turned to ashes!
In an instant!
Those hundreds of flaming arrows in front of Xu Tianrui turned to powder, scattering into the air of the prison.
"Not worth mentioning."
Xu Tianrui lightly uttered four words, his eyes filled with disdain.
"Alas—"
Zhu Qilue also sighed sorrowfully, his expression exceedingly mournful.
His sister Zhu Ruoling had already missed the best chance to escape; now she was a lamb to the slaughter, utterly helpless against Xu Tianrui.
Though he wanted to save Zhu Ruoling, he was powerless, only able to watch as Zhu Ruoling became Xu Tianrui's prey.
"No... No... Impossible! How is this possible?! My firestorm... how could it be this way..."
The arrows filling the sky turned to powder in an instant.
No one dared to believe such a scene could happen, and Xu Tianrui seemed to resolve Zhu Ruoling's move effortlessly.
Zhu Ruoling's confidence collapsed completely at that moment!
The move she prided herself on seemed trivial, like a joke, in front of Xu Tianrui.
At this time.
An unprecedented fear emerged in her heart.
She froze entirely!
Immobile!
As stiff as wood!
Xu Tianrui laughed sinisterly. "Little girl, do you now know what it means to be self-deceived? Do you now understand real terror? You truly are an overconfident fool, trying to use your ant-like power against a giant like me. Trying to save your brother and yet getting yourself involved, how laughable."
He paused, pointing to his injured right arm. The wound had stopped bleeding, but the pierced arm still looked bloody.
"Having suffered once, do you think I would suffer again? You are indeed incredible, so skilled at such a young age. But unfortunately, you are not a prodigy, not even a genius, just a bit stronger than the average person. Do you think you can beat me with that little bit of skill?"
"But thinking, you can only become my plaything, not my wife. Because you're so foolish, you can't comprehend even the simplest logic. Any children born could very well be as idiotic as you, and the Xu Family might be ruined by your hands. So, you can only be my plaything. Are you willing?"
Whether Zhu Ruoling was willing or not was irrelevant; even if she wasn't, Xu Tianrui would forcibly take her away.
Xu Tianrui asked only to humiliate the Zhu Family.
Zhu Ruoling's face flushed red.
Anger!
Fear!
Shame!
Panic!
Her delicate body trembled like an injured little rabbit, making one want to cherish and protect her.
Her bright eyes brimming with tears, her eyes reflective with tear droplets falling.
"Oh my, why is my little beauty crying? But it doesn't matter, tonight you might cry even more. Then, I will let you see what a real man is like! But there's one thing I have to tell you in advance, after tonight, you'll never be able to be with your dear Zhengqing brother in this life."
"But it doesn't matter, you'll get a real man like me. Who needs a sissy like Lan Zhengqing, anyway, haha!"
Xu Tianrui laughed confidently, his mouth full of vulgar words.
Zhu Ruoling, inexperienced in the ways of the world, didn't understand much about this matter, listening was perplexing, understanding only half.
But hearing she couldn't be with Lan Zhengqing, her tears flowed like a spring, unstoppable.
"Crying won't help now, you might as well bid farewell to your brother, because I'm going to kill him now."
Xu Tianrui left Zhu Ruoling and turned towards Zhu Qilue.
This guy was too much of an eyesore!
Since a move against the Zhu Family was already happening, there was no need to be polite with this punk.
He long despised this useless piece of trash.
Someone so utterly worthless, yet held a position as a Fire Clan Young Master.
"No... Don't!"
Zhu Ruoling exclaimed delicately, but it couldn't halt Xu Tianrui's steps.
Her eyes widened in true panic.
How she wished that Lan Zhengqing could suddenly appear, descending like a divine soldier, to defeat Xu Tianrui and rescue her and her brother.
But.
Lan Zhengqing had already left, and it was impossible for him to come back, even more so to know what was happening here.
Suddenly.
An image of someone popped into her mind.
This was the person she hated most, how could she think of him at this moment?!
Yet her mind kept replaying scenes of Lin Fan protecting her amidst flames.
She could even recall Lin Fan's scent.
Though she was unwilling to admit it, her mind uncontrollably wanted Lin Fan to appear.
Now, the only one who could save her and her brother was Lin Fan!
But where was Lin Fan now?!
Just as Zhu Ruoling was in utter anxiety.
Xu Tianrui had already approached Zhu Qilue, his eyes erupting with a hideous and terrible killing intent, and terrible aura surging around him.
"Zhu Qilue, you waste, you're finally going to die, I've waited a long time for this day."
"..."
Zhu Qilue wanted to retort, but his injuries kept him silent.
It seemed.
His life was to end here.
He glanced helplessly at the Netherworld Ghost Fire in the cell, letting out a gentle sigh.
Lin Fan was dead too, he lost his last chance, so living held no meaning.
Forget it!
If death was it, then so be it!
But Zhu Ruoling was likely to suffer...
"Go to hell!" Xu Tianrui shouted sharply, raising his fist high, smashing towards Zhu Qilue's head.
This punch directly broke through the weight of a hundred billion kilograms!
As long as it smashed onto Zhu Qilue's head, it would turn him into a mist of blood, his Divine Sense extinguished!
