Chapter 89
"They forced me, made me the successor, in the name of love, bound me, kept making me study, study."
"I humbly tried to please everyone."
"But…"
"Why…"
"I gained nothing at all."
His voice was hoarse, low, carrying an inexpressible bitterness.
"So."
His voice suddenly paused for a beat.
Then.
He raised his head.
He looked toward Lin Yu.
At this moment, his gaze was filled with a sick, twisted distortion, purple light flickering.
"I want to prove…"
"I am the best."
"I reached the top of KO. 2…"
"I created the Black Cat Hotel."
"I became the War God you all speak of."
"I made the KO rankings of the School Realm fear me, made them tremble."
"I once…"
"Followed in your footsteps, wanting to make everyone afraid, wanting to make everyone dread me, I wanted to become that existence whom countless people revered."
"I want to prove."
"I…"
"Am the best."
"So…"
Hum.
Hum.
Hum.
His Ares Hand kept trembling.
A stream of purple light kept bursting and churning from within the Ares Hand, and his own combat power index suddenly showed a sharp fluctuation—sometimes strong, sometimes weak.
Under the gaze of countless eyes, everyone saw that in the dim sky where the last wisp of the sunset's afterglow fell, at this moment, it seemed as if some kind of darkness was condensing upon that sky, forming a certain vortex, as if connecting with the Lei Kesi below.
"So…"
He stood up completely, looking at the Lin Yu before him!
Hum!
Boom!
Fist.
Clenched tight!
The Ares Hand trembled wildly, his body leapt forward, the fist of the Ares Hand—a back-swing punch—followed his body toward Lin Yu, seven or eight meters ahead!
The instant the fist swung back and the force surged behind, the Ares Hand seemed to connect with the darkness of the sky vortex, and a cold, dark, icy aura suddenly swept in, blotting out the sky!
In the unseen.
As if.
A pair of eyes, in an instant, appeared upon that Ares Hand, filled with ferocity and horror.
Boom!
Around Lei Kesi, his aura went from weakness to overwhelming strength in an instant—even surpassing his peak state—ghost-green light surging with purple radiance around him, filled with violence and chaos!
Hum!
Body.
Arriving before Lin Yu!
One punch!
Brought down!
His roar, filled with unwillingness and fury, echoed across the rear mountain:
"I, will not…"
"…"
"Lose!!!"
Roar—
At this moment, endless murderous aura instantly billowed around him! And behind him, as if some beast were growling low, or perhaps shrieking high, within a kind of faintly visible darkness, a pair of eyes, along with his furious roar, looked down ahead, and an indistinct phantom seemed to appear, surging toward Lin Yu along with his punch!
"…"
"…"
"…"
This scene, filled with epic grandeur.
Made everyone present…
Feel shaken to the core!
Unease!
Fear!
"This..."
"What is this?!"
Countless people stared at the Ares Hand in Lei Kesi's hand; in the unseen depths, it seemed as if a terrifying shadow, hundreds of zhang tall, blotting out sky and sun, was gazing down upon them all!
In the void-black expanse of the heavens, something seemed to be coalescing!
This terrifying pressure.
Made it hard to breathe!
"｀ 」..."
Lin Yu stood in place.
Watching Lei Kesi advance.
His eyes were calm.
But his blood boiled endlessly.
He listened to Lei Kesi's confession, to Lei Kesi's recounting, to Lei Kesi peeling away layer upon layer of himself, revealing to all the timid, dark, shadowed child within, filled with fear.
But.
This world.
Who had not once been that foolish child?
Countless specks of dust in the world eventually clouded a heart; the child who once only wished to pass the college entrance exam and care for his grandmother finally became one, one day, drenched in blood, his soul choked with rage, distortion, resentment, and hatred—only in that fouled world could darkness protect him.
So.
He raised his fist.
Swung it at his enemy.
And swung it at himself.
Let darkness, blood, cruelty, fill his soul.
So.
He became the former Demon of Wrath.
And all within the prison.
Forged.
The present 'Brother Yanwang'.
So...
Hum.
