The Demon Lords

Chapter 810 178: Heart’s Change (Part 4)

Moreover, Zheng Fan dared not shift his gaze to the left anymore, starting to lean to the right, hoping that his field of vision would no longer include something that made him feel dazzled.

But he was wrong,

because at that moment he realized,

on his right side,

another person stood as well.

This person was covered in blood, wearing armor that looked exactly like his own; in fact, exactly the same as he was now;

The only difference might be the red glow in the other's eyes and the expression of greed and enjoyment on their face.

Zheng Fan couldn't help but cover his ears with his hands,

he felt that he must have entered some kind of abnormal mental state.

Perhaps stimulated by the order he gave to execute prisoners,

or maybe provoked by what Tian Wujing said earlier,

or,

perhaps it was the emotions and issues that had accumulated deep in his heart over the years, being completely released at this moment.

I,

who exactly am I?

This is a question many people would ask themselves.

And now,

it is a question that Zheng Fan desperately wants to know the answer to.

Unfortunately,

the blind man is not by his side now.

Zheng Fan stopped walking, lowered his head, and squatted down.

In his mind, various images began to appear chaotically.

At one moment, he was in his euthanasia room;

at another, he stood on top of the Snow Sea Pass, watching the wild people attacking from below;

then suddenly, he found himself in a roasted duck restaurant, with Ji Chengjue smiling at him, holding a roast duck;

Soon after,

he discovered himself standing in front of a birthday cake, with his studio companions singing the birthday song, celebrating for him.

The rapid turnover of images was accompanied by an intense feeling of nausea.

"Ugh..."

Zheng Fan supported himself on the ground with both hands, beginning to retch violently.

He was in such agony, his head ached terribly, his whole being seemed to be tearing apart, yet ironically, he didn't know which way he should go.

In the previous life, the blind man was a psychologist; actually, the other demon lords were also extraordinary, even the most naive-looking Fanli, would you truly believe he is that naive?

But perhaps this is what they call the blind spot right under the lamp.

Having spent a long time with the demon lords, Zheng Fan had been making progress, changing himself, adapting to them, and at the same time, adapting to this world;

The demon lords were also pleased with their lord's transformation, because ideally, they should always be bound together, and naturally, they didn't want their lord to remain stagnant, forever lying there doing nothing.

But Zheng Fan, in the end, is human,

The demon lords each have their own experiences, their own character setups,

Even after awakening in this world, they have been living according to their own nature, avoiding compromises when possible, for happiness and wanton desire were the most important.

Zheng Fan, on the other hand, was forcibly polished in a short time, with too many negative emotions accumulated deep inside him, and there was never a place to vent them out.

The demon lords also habitually regarded the progressively changing lord, as one of their own.

Under the blind spot right under the lamp, even the blind man didn't notice the change in Zheng Fan's emotions and psyche, naturally not making any effort to sort and mediate.

Originally, these issues wouldn't have erupted at this moment, as Zheng Fan could still endure, his endurance hadn't reached the extreme yet.

But today,

it did erupt.

Some cavalry passing by Zheng Fan called out "My lord" or "Sir";

and soon after, they saw their own Prince walking behind and immediately called out:

"Prince!"

Tian Wujing followed behind Zheng Fan,

He didn't originally plan to follow,

What he wanted was to take advantage of this bloody aura to help Zheng Fan break through the Seventh Rank martial artist's bottleneck;

He didn't think it would be difficult since Zheng Fan's aptitude was quite high.

But gradually,

Tian Wujing noticed that things seemed to be heading in an unknown direction.

Contrasting the restless energy and blood in Zheng Fan's body, Zheng Fan's own thoughts seemed to fall into a terribly complex and painful state.

This wasn't merely a matter of breaking through from the Seventh to the Sixth Rank,

This was,

about to suffer a deviation in his practice.

Suffering a deviation is a dangerous threshold that many martial artists need to face, but Tian Wujing hadn't expected such a situation to arise with Zheng Fan at this time, as he had really never heard of anyone deviating when advancing from the Seventh to the Sixth Rank.

This feeling was like Zhang San stealing Li Si's chicken and having to go to the throne room for the Emperor's judgment.

Finally,

Tian Wujing saw Zheng Fan in front of him wrapping his hands around his head, squatting with his body beginning to twitch and convulse, with his energy and blood inside him gradually heading in an uncontrollable direction.

Even though Tian Wujing was a God of War, he couldn't possibly know Zheng Fan's secret of being "a person of two lives";

So, in Tian Wujing's eyes, it might be because Zheng Fan was "pushed" too hard, the means employed were too excessive, leading him to ultimately be unable to withstand the pressure, subsequently showing signs of collapse.

Just as Zheng Fan regards Tian Wujing as somewhat of an elder brother,

Tian Wujing didn't simply see this guy who dared without hesitation to take in his son, solely as a subordinate;
