Chapter 39: The Sword Turns into Green Lotus (Combined Chapter)

Translator: 549690339

At the backstage of the theater, an intense battle had just concluded.

The demon-possessed academy student now lay on the ground, his body covered in sword marks. His mouth was oozing with a putrid, black fluid mixed with foam. The veins on his face were bulging, and his eyes were blood-red, like a wild beast. Even in his final moments, his crimson eyes reflected no despair or fear, but only madness.

Yang Jianqing drove his long sword into the boy's throat, thus ending the life of his fully demon-possessed junior brother, Liu.

Then, he stooped to one knee on the ground, sword still in one hand, and knelt before Liu's corpse in respectful silence.

The other two academy students, Song Chunkang and He Pixian, also knelt in obeisance.

The three young men knelt silent around Junior Liu's body, bidding farewell to their former peer.

From a short distance away, Sang Liren observed this scene with a sigh.
