Chapter 1288: Brothers at Odds, Blade of Darkness
"Hahaha." In the distance, Prince Harren saw this scene and laughed heartily, saying, "Well done, well done, Evil Eyes, capture this Evil God for me!"
At this moment, Evil Eyes was already firmly controlled by Prince Harren and had long lost his self-awareness. Therefore, he followed Prince Harren’s orders to the letter, launching even more ruthless attacks.
"Ah..."
He bellowed loudly and surprisingly used a self-destructive cultivation technique, encasing his entire body in a layer of Gang Qi as he charged towards Xiao Zheng.
There was a significant flaw in this move; Xiao Zheng only needed to counterattack to kill Evil Eyes. However, Xiao Zheng naturally couldn’t do that, and so he had no choice but to evade.
Boom!
Although Xiao Zheng’s speed was incredible, this move was, after all, one of Evil Eyes’ powerful techniques, and some of its residual impact swept onto Xiao Zheng, sending him flying with a roar.
Bang!
Xiao Zheng crashed into the stone wall of the ancient castle, his body shuddering, and a trace of blood seeped from the corner of his mouth.
In the distance, Prince Harren chuckled, "Evil God, one must not be soft-hearted, or else one will suffer in the end."
Xiao Zheng’s anger flared, his hair stood on end; Prince Harren was truly despicable, exploiting his ties with Evil Eyes to play dirty, forcing him into a dilemma.
Evil Eyes was a Martial Saint. Although Xiao Zheng was considerably stronger, since they were in the same realm, the gap between them wasn’t too large.
Now, every move Evil Eyes made was aggressive, and because Xiao Zheng was afraid of injuring Evil Eyes, he was constantly on guard, resulting in him being at a disadvantage.
Xiao Zheng was extremely aggrieved at the moment, but he couldn’t help it.
Boom!
At this moment, Evil Eyes charged again, shouting loudly, his Gang Qi roaring and surging, transforming into a curved blade, pitch black like the deepest abyss, slashing towards Xiao Zheng.
"Is this... the Dark Blade?"
Xiao Zheng was sharply shocked. The Dark Blade was one of Evil Eyes’ renowned ultimate techniques. Once unleashed, no enemy could withstand it, reaping lives en masse.
Because of this, many people called this Dark Blade the Death God’s Blade, signifying that once this Dark Blade descended, it was like the Reaper emerging from Hell, reaping lives.
The techniques were still the same as before, but the person was no longer who they used to be. At this moment, Xiao Zheng felt a sudden pang of bitterness.
"Ah..."
Xiao Zheng let out a sorrowful roar, stood up directly, and then his aura changed drastically, as if he had transformed into a Demon God, extending his hand towards the Dark Blade.
Dang!
Xiao Zheng’s palm was enveloped in golden Gang Qi, and he grabbed the blade at once, the Gang Qi colliding, sounding like steel clashing.
"Break!"
Xiao Zheng caught the Dark Blade barehanded, his palm was cut open, blood was gushing out, but his expression was fierce, and he shouted coldly as he suddenly exerted force.
Dang!
The Dark Blade instantly shattered.
Evil Eyes excelled in combat skills, and after his attack move was destroyed, he did not retreat but instead bravely charged towards Xiao Zheng again.
Boom!
At that moment, his whole body ignited with black flames. Those weren’t real flames but an illusion created after the Gang Qi roared to life.
"The Blood Clan’s Hellfire?" Xiao Zheng immediately frowned.
He could tell at a glance that the black flames burning on Evil Eyes were a well-known attack method of the vampire clan.
This Hellfire possessed terrifying properties; once contaminated, it would burn the Gang Qi, with no way to extinguish it.
By then, even a Martial Saint would be completely consumed by flames, dying a terrifying and miserable death.
Part of the reason why vampires were so formidable was due to some terrifying offensive techniques like this Hellfire!
Prince Harren smugly smiled, "Evil Eyes is the most capable commander under my command! Hehe, he has practiced some of our Blood Clan’s attack techniques to an extremely terrifying degree."
To this Hellfire, one naturally couldn’t take it head-on. Xiao Zheng lightly exclaimed, "Flying Goose Stepping Snow!" With a flick of his toe on the ground, he vanished in place and then appeared behind Evil Eyes.
Flying Goose Stepping Snow was a top-tier footwork technique. Once executed, it leaves no trace like a flying goose, reaching an extreme level of agility.
Boom!
Evil Eyes didn’t anticipate this move, his body slammed into the wall with a bang, the Hellfire covering the stone walls, sizzling and corroding them into a massive crater in moments.
Evil Eyes shook his head, then suddenly turned and stared at Xiao Zheng with fiery eyes, roaring as he charged once again.
"This won’t work," Xiao Zheng thought to himself as he continued using Flying Goose Stepping Snow to evade Evil Eyes’ attacks.
If the stalemate continued, he would eventually be defeated! He knew there wasn’t only Evil Eyes in the castle; there was also the even more terrifying Prince Harren.
Prince Harren hadn’t made a move yet, most likely studying him through Evil Eyes. Once he saw an opportunity, he was bound to strike like thunder.
"I must finish this quickly," Xiao Zheng took a deep breath, his eyes growing determined, then suddenly let out a long roar, his Gang Qi surging.
Boom!
In an instant, Xiao Zheng’s body inflated, turning into a small giant over two meters tall, muscular and robust. But it wasn’t muscles swelling; it was the golden Gang Qi. It was as if he was wearing a layer of golden armor.
Boom!
He suddenly extended a massive hand, pressing towards Evil Eyes.
Evil Eyes roared, raised his hand to block, and the Hellfire surged, rushing towards Xiao Zheng’s hand. However, when those flames touched Xiao Zheng’s hand, they had no effect and simply slid away.
Meanwhile, Xiao Zheng’s hand pressed down like a firmament, with no flaws up or down, enveloping Evil Eyes completely. With a roar, it landed on Evil Eyes’ head.
Bang!
Evil Eyes flew sideways, vomiting blood in mid-air, then crashing into the wall, causing the entire castle to tremble violently.
Soon after, Evil Eyes passed out directly.
Prince Harren’s eyes flashed with surprise as he said, "Your methods are quite ruthless, aren’t they? You can even attack your own brother."
Xiao Zheng replied coldly, "A true man knows when to take and when to leave." In fact, although Xiao Zheng knocked Evil Eyes out, he didn’t harm the essence of the Evil God; this scene just appeared a bit brutal.
