Chapter 2346: Darkness Phoenix, Falling_1

The members of the Blood God Army wanted to provide support, but they found that the oppressive aura emanating from ahead made it difficult for them to take even a single step!

They all showed expressions of terror...

"So... so terrifying, what exactly is happening over there?"

"It seems that Wu Changkong, an Elder of the Sea God's Pavilion, is fighting the Darkness Phoenix. Who would have thought it could cause such an abnormal event in the heavens and earth"

"No wonder it's a fight at the Super Douluo Level. The mere aftershock is more than we can handle!"

"Since it's Wu Changkong, an Elder of the Sea God's Pavilion, that Darkness Phoenix surely can't be the match... Wait, that is... the esteemed Sky Phoenix Douluo!"

Very soon, someone spotted Leng Yaozhu, who was heavily injured and staggering toward them...

With a "thump," she, who had exhausted her strength, fell directly to the ground...

Upon seeing this, one of the military members shouted, "What are you standing around for? Hurry and get the medical team to treat the Sky Phoenix Douluo!"

Upon hearing this, members immediately went to summon them...

In less than a few minutes, the Blood God Army's medical team rushed over to the scene!

After examining Leng Yaozhu's injuries, they were all astounded...

"Hiss... The Sky Phoenix Douluo is so badly injured that nearly all the bones in her limbs are broken. The determination it must have taken for her to walk here on her own feet..."

"Yes, after all, she was fighting against one of the top-ranked Sickle Emperors among the Abyssal Emperors!"

"Stop the chatter and start treating her. If her condition worsens, we can't afford the responsibility!"

With that said, to quicken the healing process, the medical team took their places next to each of her limbs and began treating them simultaneously...

As her wounds gradually healed, Leng Yaozhu, who had been unconscious, quickly regained consciousness...

Upon opening her eyes, the first thing she saw were the members of the medical team, and she instinctively asked, "You are..."

But suddenly, her pupils contracted, and she exclaimed, "That's right, Wu Changkong!"

She immediately broke free from the restraints and, enduring the pain, stood up...

Seeing this, one of the members expressed their worries, "Your Highness, Sky Phoenix Douluo, although your external injuries have healed, your bones are not fully knitted together. You cannot move around yet!"

Upon hearing this, Leng Yaozhu shouted angrily, "No, if I am too late, there might be an accident!"

With that, she rushed in the direction where Wu Changkong and the Darkness Phoenix were fighting...

The onlookers exchanged glances but dared not stop her...

...

At this moment, Wu Changkong, lying in the huge pit, had his Four-Word Battle Armor already damaged, and his body was covered in gruesome wounds...

The surroundings had turned into a shambles with the stench of burnt odor hanging in the air...

Obviously, all the result of that enormous fireball just now!

Covering his abdomen with his hand, he coughed weakly, "Cough cough... Such a fearsome soul skill. Even after using Absolute Zero, I've sustained such severe injuries."

If the Darkness Phoenix were a Limit Douluo, I would probably be dead by now!

At this very moment, standing not far away, Leng Yulai, who also got caught in the aftermath, watched the man in the pit with tattered clothes, saying emotionlessly, "You chose to sacrifice yourself to protect this mountainous region? How foolish!"

Without delay, she stepped to the edge of the pit...

Wu Changkong's pupils tightened, "Darkness Phoenix, you..."

With a chilling tone, Leng Yulai said, "The sensation of being burned all over must be painful, right? I'll end your misery now!"

Having said this, her right arm gathered dark flames, and then she leaped into the air, aiming an attack at Wu Changkong below...

Facing the Darkness Phoenix descending from the sky, Wu Changkong grasped the Frost Sword next to him, and shouted, "Third soul skill, Frost Slash!"

Icy blue Sword Qi burst forth from the Frost Sword, slashing head-on towards the Darkness Phoenix...

Unexpectedly, she suddenly smiled, a smile tinged with helplessness and guilt...

Wu Changkong, upon seeing this, seemed to anticipate something, "Wait, could it be that she..."

This feeling, it was like that of a person waiting for death!

As if to confirm his suspicion, Leng Yaozhu moved her right arm away at the moment she was about to touch the Sword Qi...

In an instant, scorching blood sprayed out...

Her body plummeted to the ground, her abdomen so mangled that even the stark white of her bones was visible...

The standing Wu Changkong, gazing at this scene, fell into silence...

Why... why did she choose to give up resistance when that strike clearly wasn't fatal!

Could it be that from the start, she had no intention to kill him, but instead chose to use him to end her own life?

Lying on the ground, feeling her life force slipping away, Leng Yulai's nerves finally relaxed, her amber eyes magnificent in that moment...

"The sky, it's so beautiful..."

Wu Changkong turned away and pursed his thin lips, "You're about to die, do you have any last words?"

Although treating one of the four great Heavenly Kings of the Holy Spirit Cult in such a manner was not proper, he still wanted to follow his own heart!

Leng Yulai was startled, then smiled and said, "You really are... quite remarkable for an Elder of the Sea God Pavilion, if possible, please convey my apologies to my sister."

Wu Changkong, upon hearing this, responded unemotionally, "I will, go in peace!"

After receiving confirmation, the luster in Leng Yulai's eyes gradually faded, and a few seconds later, her life signs ceased completely...

Simultaneously, Leng Yaozhu had already arrived in time...

When she looked at the lifeless Leng Yulai in the pit, she fell into a stunned silence...

After a long moment, she lifted her head, and her gaze filled with murderous intent and hatred turned towards Wu Changkong, "Was it you... you killed her?"

The pressure of a Limit Douluo level suddenly erupted...

Wu Changkong didn't deny it, saying indifferently, "Yes, it was I who delivered the final strike."

"But before her end, she asked me to apologize to you on her behalf!"

At these words, Leng Yaozhu staggered as if struck by a heavy blow, collapsing next to the body of Leng Yulai...

The terrifying pressure from before also dissipated without her even realizing it...

She then closed her sister's eyes with her hand and, with trembling lips, murmured, "Thank you, for giving her release!"

Wu Changkong nodded, "Condolences."

After saying that, he turned and left to give them the chance to be alone...

Moreover, although the Darkness Phoenix was dealt with, the battle with the abyssal creatures was far from over!

He must immediately restore his Soul Power and then continue to the frontline!

Only after he had left did Leng Yaozhu embrace Leng Yulai's upper body and whisper, "Yulai, why were you so foolish, we sisters... could have been like we were before."

From the fact that the wounds on Leng Yulai's body were lighter than those inflicted by Wu Changkong, she could infer that her sister had chosen to die by his hand!

So, she also had to thank Wu Changkong for letting her sister find her release!
