My Cold and Ruthless CEO Wife

Chapter 49: Long Tian’s Death

CRACKLE!

The dark cloud began to increase, and it became more concentrated and increased in power.

Long Tian’s expression became ugly. How was he going to fight it?

His body’s strength has been overexerted; even lifting his finger takes a lot of willpower.

However, for some reason, he didn’t feel fear, but rather an unwillingness.

His eyes burned with unyielding will; he slowly forced himself to stand up.

He stood up straight, ready to tackle its attack.

Suddenly, the sky split open. Long Tian, no, the entire world felt a presence descending.

His body froze in fear before this presence.

As if it wasn’t meant to be defiled or disobeyed.

Its presence encroaches everywhere. Those who were running towards where Long Tian was paused.

They didn’t want to be implicated in whatever was happening.

Long Tian saw an eye descent.

It was emotionless, containing the will of destruction. All living things were beneath it and under its order.

As it appeared, the world shook as if they were welcoming it.

Long Tian’s expression turned ugly. He recognised what this eye was.

It was the Heavenly Eye.

Before it, all lifeforms in a world are under it in terms of strength. It was Supreme.

And cases it appears is only when a threat has appeared.

It was the epitome of ruthlessness, annihilation and destruction.

The heavenly eye locked up to him. After many attempts to find the threat it sensed, it finally found it.

It released a pressure on Long Tian. It wanted Long Tian to kneel when it saw him standing straight, looking at it unyielding.

This was defiance towards it.

Long Tian felt as if the entire world was against him. His body was squeezed under the pressure.

Cracks of bone could be heard.

This realisation struck Long Tian. Only the pressure of the heavenly eye had caused damage to him.

He was helpless and angry.

Angry at the fact that the heavenly eye descended on him. It was impartiality.

From the tribulation to this, this was the first time he heard that someone was facing a heavenly Tribulation at the start of his cultivation.

If so, then why is he cultivating?

His anger burned for no reason. A sleeping will was completely awakened.

The unyielding will.

This will burst out from his body and its fuel was his anger. With it, the pressure of heaven was reduced and it was non-existent.

Long Tian was unaware of this, his focus was on the Heavenly Eye.

Numerous challenges have been happening to him making him realise how weak of a creature he was.

And what he hated was this weakness.

Weakness is a sin to him.

Even though you are weak in strength, one can never be weak in the heart.

If you become weak in both body and mind, then you are just a living dead.

The Heavenly Eye sensed the unyielding will that was suppressing its will. And this angered it as the world experienced disaster due to its wrath.

Landslide. Typhoon. Flood.

Numerous disasters happen and the heavens don’t care about their inhabitants.

Luckily, no one died but they lost one or two.

The heavenly eye turned golden, crackling of golden lightning flowed through it. It locked onto Long Tian, giving him no way of escape.

Winds howled. Earth cracked. Lava burst out. The sea overflowed , encroaching into human settlement.

It was as if an apocalypse had begun.

But all this was just caused by a mortal tribulation.

Long Tian saw the heavenly eye gathering thunder and lightning. He knew he was not going to make it through the Tribulation.

And he guessed this tribulation stemmed from the infinite source cannon.

His last hope depended on it. There was no way it would invoke such a tribulation for him to die.

Meng Lingxue was standing at the garden of the villa.

She saw the dark clouds, her brows furrowed. She doesn’t know why she felt restless.

She felt the urge to rush to the source of the tribulation. But she suppressed such emotions.

She doesn’t know what was happening, but she wouldn’t allow such things to control her.

Back at the tribulation,

The heavenly eye’s aura increased, its golden lightning pulsated with power.

A beam of lightning came crashing on Long Tian. Its descent was unstoppable and it struck with unstoppable speed.

As the heavenly eye struck, the small dragon soul’s eyes snapped open.

They were full of darkness and blood, then a vortex appeared.

An ancient dragon chant resounded in his mind, he didn’t know where strength came from.

His entire body was filled with it.

His body transformed back into his three tailed fox form. His white fur dancing in the air, his unyielding gaze fixed on the lightning bolt.

Draconic energy came to be released from his body.

By instinct, he opened his fox’s mouth, forming a vortex.

The beam of lightning was absorbed by the vortex.

Immediately the vortex absorbed the bean of lightning into Long Tian’s body.

He couldn’t scream from the pain as he fell unconscious.

The heavenly lightning began to wreak destruction in his body.

His bones cracked, his skin split open, blood flowing out.

He was at the edge of death, his breath faint.

Even in his unconsciousness, his spirit was unyielding, not wanting to succumb to death.

But there are some things that are set in stone.

Even though Long Tian didn’t want to die, his strength was weak before the heavenly lightning.

Little by Little, his life was slipping away.

His consciousness became awake, he could see the destruction the heavenly lightning was causing in his body.

Even though the lightning was golden, it was full of annihilative powers.

His organs had all deteriorated under its annihilative force.

Long Tian looked at the heavenly eye and felt intense anger.

What had he done to deserve death?

Thinking of his revenge on the Long Tian, his master’s his parents he hadn’t met, his mercenary and for some reason, Meng Lingxue’s face flashed through his mind.

All this made him unwilling to face death.

There were still many things he had left undone.

He fought back, trying to hold his life. But he couldn’t deny it was slipping away.

As for the cause of this, the Infinite Source Cannon. It made no move.

This made him sigh. He took a last glance at the heavenly eye, silent roaring in his mind.

If he ever makes it back alive, he would make sure to destroy the heavens and take his revenge.

With this, Long Tian gave up the ghost.

His dead eyes were full of unwillingness and anger but there were no regrets.

Meng Lingxue was busy with her company work when she unconsciously began to cry.

Her heart pained her for no reason, that tears flowed like waterfalls.

She clutched her heat, trying to lessen the pain. But she couldn’t lessen the pain as if she had lost something.

For the first time, this was happening.

She walked towards the window, looking towards the direction of the source of the tribulation.

Long Tian’s name appeared in her mind.

She couldn’t stay in the house, her figure disappeared, leaving shards of ice.

She had gone to investigate the Heavenly tribulation.

The Heavenly Eye saw Long Tian as dead, its figure and the dark cloud began to fade, restoring the sky back to normal.

The Red Dragon Emperor Soul floated before Long Tian’s dead body.

"Impossible!" It roared.

It checked Long Tian’s body numerous times, there was no hint of life.

He was truly dead, with no way of helping him.

The Red Dragon Soul was shocked and its expression turned ugly. It did not expect this as this wasn’t part of the plot.

It looked at the fading dark clouds in anger. Now, the hope of the dragon clan has been destroyed.

As it was in thought, it felt a presence but it was too late to move Long Tian’s body.

It was shocked as it didn’t sense this presence at all.

Meng Lingxue walked the forest. Looking at the destruction and the lingering lightning, she could still feel the wrath of the heavens.

What had the person done to deserve this?

Curiousity got hold of her as she reached the center of the destruction.

A large pit was already created. She walked towards to the pit , she had to cover herself with Originat because of the lingering lightning.

When she reached there, she saw a dead body that lied on the scroched lightning ground.

It had lost most of its flesh, bone could be seen everywhere.

An immense pain gripped her heart, she couldn’t stop her tears from overflowing.

She walked towards the body steadily. Looking at the face of the body, more tears began to fall.

Most of Long Tian’s face was preserved from the destruction of the lightning.

She recognised him.

She didn’t know why she was crying but an intense pain clouded her mind and heart.

"Long Tian."
