Chapter 143: Brothers tearing each other apart! Is this your loyalty?!

Boom!!!

The moment he stepped into the Gate, Su Ming felt his whole body sink.

Crushing pressure!

The crushing pressure that shatters his spirit makes his flesh and soul unbearably heavy, agonizing to the extreme!

Killing aura!

Countless killing auras seep through every pore, corroding his flesh, blood, and bones.

Demonic sound!

In his ears, the dying soldiers' howls, curses, and wails merge into a torrent, washing over his will.

Foul stench!

The stench of rusted weapons, rotting blood, and burning corpses overwhelms him, making him nearly vomit.

This damn…

…is hell!

"Damn! What the hell place!"

After a while, Su Ming finally adjusted a bit and raised his head with difficulty.

The sky, red clouds weeping blood!

The earth, countless shattered weapons and bleached bones!

In the heart of hell, a storm rages.

Azure gusts and black thunder clash wildly.

Two god‑like figures engage in the most primal, most savage battle!

On the left, a figure in a torn green robe, face like a heavy jujube.

His normally half‑closed vermilion phoenix eyes are now furiously wide open!

Within the eye sockets, there are no eyeballs.

Only two vortexes of resentment swirl wildly!

Two streams of black blood‑tears flow from the hollow sockets, corroding his proud, beautiful beard.

Each swing of the Azure Dragon Crescent Blade in his hand shatters the laws!

On the right, a figure in shattered black armor, leopard‑head eyes, swallow‑like jaw, tiger‑like whiskers.

His eyes are likewise two hollows flowing black blood!

He bears no trace of dignity.

Only pure to the extreme, ferocious enough to annihilate the whole world—

Rage!!!

Each thrust of the Eight‑Foot Snake Spear in his palm summons raging thunder from the nine heavens.

Where the spear tip reaches, all things descend into chaos!

Clang—!!!

The Azure Dragon Crescent Blade and the Eight‑Foot Snake Spear collided fiercely again!

A destructive shockwave expands in a ring.

"Damn!"

Su Ming fails to dodge, is swept by the aftershock, and is thrown flying.

The Epic‑grade armguard he had just equipped cracks open!

"Pfft!"

A mouthful of blood spurts out as Su Ming stares in horror at the two god‑like figures in the distance.

Too strong!

This damn thing is only the battle's aftershock!

"Yun Chang! You arrogant fool!"

Zhang Fei's roar shakes heaven and earth.

He thrusts a spear to push back Guan Yu, the spear tip pointing directly at him, his voice full of contempt and cruelty.

"If you weren't so self‑righteous, careless in losing Jingzhou, how would big brother raise an army against Wu just to avenge you, you worthless trash?!"

"The foundation of Shu Han is all destroyed by your stubborn, self‑serving hand!"

"Shut up! Brute!"

From Guan Yu's hollow eye sockets, black flames burst forth, his voice ice‑cold to the extreme.

"If you, drunkard, hadn't messed up, couldn't even save your own life, how would big brother's anger flare, acting recklessly?!"

"If you could hold the rear, why would I be attacked from front and back, ending up dismembered!"

"A drunk who can't even control himself is fit to discuss the nation's grand strategy?!"

"I'll slaughter you!"

"Know no repentance!"

Clang—!!!

The dialogue is all sharp accusations and deep‑seated resentment, with no brotherly bond left.

With no common ground, they clash again!

This hell is staging the most tragic and most ironic...

【9】 Brothers tearing each other apart!

【10】 "What on earth is happening?!"

Brothers killing each other!

What on earth is happening?!

Su Ming ignored his injuries, his eyes under the Lingren Score fixed intently on those two figures, and the Eye of Truth was driven to its limit.

…

Su Ming's pupils jolted violently.

The rows of shocking blood letters on the information panel fully confirmed his worst suspicion.

Rotting Son!

Damn it, it's that lingering damn thing!

From Li Jia'ao's Plague Pig Beast.

To the Epic-level Owner·Huai Demon.

Then to these two statues before me…

That guy is like a hidden source of the plague behind the scenes.

Continuously contaminating and distorting this world!

Only he didn't expect…

Even Guan Yu's Righteousness and Zhang Fei's Fury can be affected by this scum…

It directly turned to the most extreme opposite, becoming a terrifying inner demon capable of destroying itself!

"So that's how it is…"

Su Ming wiped the blood from his mouth corner, a flash of brilliance in his eyes.

He recalled the Legendary item left personally by the Rotting Son after he slayed the Owner·Huai Demon.

Rotting Mark!

That thing imprinted a trace of Rotting aura onto his soul.

He at the time thought it was useless, even a death summons talisman.

But during the bloodbath at the chemical plant, he discovered the benefit of that Affinity!

With resistance and affinity, it meant the erosion he suffered would be greatly reduced, even…

usable for himself!

This thing might be the only support that lets him survive in this hell and even counter‑kill!

Su Ming's thoughts flickered rapidly!

What to do?

Charge forward to join the battle, shouting—Two generals, stop right now?!

Then try to reason with them?!

Ugh!

Su Ming immediately snuffed out that foolish thought.

Even among Legends, there are gaps!

Zhao Yun, Guan Yu, and Zhang Fei are all truly Legendary.

But the pressure on him is far stronger than that Quasi‑Myth heroine before.

If he goes up now, the two will likely team up instantly and tear this unwelcome guest to pieces!

In their eyes, aside from each other, there is no room for anything else!

"Stay calm, must stay calm!"

Su Ming forced himself not to watch the apocalyptic battle in the distance.

In his mind, he rapidly replayed—

Li Jia'ao!

He first stabbed the pig den, slaying countless contaminated Plague Pig Beasts.

Then, that V-shaped altar, the source of contamination, together with the Owner·Huai Demon, after absorbing all the blood mist released by the dead pig beasts, finally revealed its true form!

This is a complete process!

A full ritual of sacrifice, absorption, and descent!

Su Ming shivered all over.

A thought that made his scalp tingle surged instantly.

The Guan Yu and Zhang Fei before him were indeed powerful enough to cause despair.

But they…

Could it be that they're just 【Pig】?!

It's a higher‑spec, more powerful 【Sacrifice】!

The true killing move is not the battle between them at all!

But… after the battle ends!

Regardless of who wins or loses, or if they both perish.

Their colossal, unimaginable 【Legendary】‑level power, and the centuries‑long obsession of 【Righteousness】 and 【Anger】.

All will, in that instant, be completely devoured by a hidden 【V-shaped】 altar in the shadows!

Only then does the true gluttonous feast begin!

It is the result that 【Rotting Son】 truly wants to see!

The mantis catches the cicada, and the 【Yellow Sparrow】 is behind!

"Damn!"

Su Ming mutters a curse under his breath, his eyes flashing with ferocity.

Once this is understood, the nature of the whole matter and its solution completely change!

Putting aside whether to free those two for now.

That 【Rotting Son】 has long had him in mind; he must be killed!

So what he must do now…

He must buy time, and be the first to locate the 【Yellow Sparrow】 lurking in the shadows, ready to reap the profit!

Then!

Break its wings, snap its neck!

"Source…"

"Source, where exactly is it?"
