365: Chapter 365: One Answer 365: Chapter 365: One Answer Escaping death by a hair’s breadth, Nightmare astonishingly endured the final move, surpassing everyone’s expectations, especially Refining Mo, who couldn’t believe his own eyes.
Nightmare, in his ragged appearance, was hardly any better than a beggar; his white robe behind him had already shattered into pieces.
The most terrifying was his soft armor, torn beyond repair, bearing the brunt of the devastating damage of Destroying Heaven and Earth; otherwise, Nightmare would have already perished, although he was barely any better off now, completely drained, staggering unsteadily as if a gust of wind could knock him down.
“Nightmare.” Illusion Fox struggled free from Rong Yuan’s bind, turned into a black shadow, and at the mont Nightmare was about to hit the ground, suddenly felt supported by soone, a wave of fragrance assaulted his senses, and he sensed teardrops falling on his face.
Nightmare slowly opened his eyes and saw Illusion Fox’s lovely face before him, tear-streaked, crying a river of tears.
“Refining Mo, the ten moves have passed, according to the agreent, the two of us can leave now, right?” Illusion Fox turned around, positioning her body protectively in front of Nightmare, and roared at Refining Mo.
“Fine, you may go.” Refining Mo’s expression was dark.
Nightmare was still alive, having survived his strongest strike, a humiliation to his skills.
Rong Yuan, seeing this, secretly positioned a sharp blade in his hand, aiming to ambush them, but Refining Mo stopped him with a hand gesture.
“Nightmare, let’s go.” Illusion Fox, supporting Nightmare with her hand, his body covered in fresh, bloody wounds from the recent fray.
“Hmph, thinking you can just leave like that?” Just as they had barely moved a few ters, Refining Mo silently grasped the Desire Splitting Blade in his hand and charged it with a surge of energy…
“Be careful.” Nightmare abruptly turned back, a cold blade hanging in the air, and the person holding that blade was none other than Refining Mo.
Nightmare had no ti to curse him, he forcefully pushed Illusion Fox aside and then turned to face the Desire Splitting Blade head-on, he no longer had the energy to fight.
He turned his head and looked into Illusion Fox’s eyes, his gaze filled with deep affection, eliciting a sigh…
“No!” Illusion Fox scread out loud.
“Bang.”
………
A loud bang resounded in the air, Nightmare slowly opened his eyes, wondering if he was not dead yet, and suddenly felt soone hugging him tightly around the waist.
Turning around, Illusion Fox was crying, tear-streaked, holding him tightly.
The dust settled, and two figures fell to the ground.
“Cough cough, this old guy, he really is sothing.”
“My lord.” Nightmare, seeing the newcor, cried out excitedly.
“Hades, it’s actually you.” Refining Mo was greatly startled, retreating several steps, instinctively raising the Desire Splitting Blade, Ye Shikai disdainfully glanced at him and then turned to look at Nightmare.
“You hurt my people, and still wanted to deal a poisonous blow.” Ye Shikai coldly stated, radiating a thick aura of murderous intent and a deathly presence, like the stench of piled corpses, overwhelmingly troubling.
Ye Shikai’s eyes were bloodshot, staring at Refining Mo and others, revealing a sinister smile like a wolf spotting its prey.
“You guys go ahead, I’ll handle them.” Ye Shikai told the two behind him, and just as he finished speaking, two figures suddenly burst from the bushes beside, they were Soul Destroyer and Demoness from the warriors of Netherworld Palace, forming a triangular formation with Ye Shikai, encircling Refining Mo and Rong Yuan in the middle.
Illusion Fox channeled her Inner Strength, grabbed Nightmare’s body, and sped away from the park, disappearing at a street corner in Hong Kong.
Refining Mo tried to give chase but was blocked by Ye Shikai.
“Refining Mo, your opponents are us.”
………
In an alley in Hong Kong.
Illusion Fox, pulling Nightmare’s body, hurried towards the hospital; he was severely injured, barely clinging to life, almost devoid of any life signs.
Illusion Fox infused her Inner Strength into his body, guarding his heart channels, and watched his injuries with heartache.
“Wait…
a mont.” Nightmare said weakly.
“You alright?
Hold on, we’re almost at the hospital.” Illusion Fox continued to hold Nightmare’s hand, not stopping.
“I said, stop.” Nightmare gritted his teeth and broke free from Illusion Fox’s embrace, pushing her away with the last bit of his strength.
His eyes were fiery, filled with a resolute expression.
“What…
what’s wrong with you?” Illusion Fox was startled by this act, standing frozen, with a fleeting look of guilt crossing her face unintendedly.
“I want to talk to you about sothing.” Nightmare spoke faintly, his voice sounding very weak.
“We can talk about it later, let’s go to the hospital first.” Illusion Fox, avoiding his gaze, held his hand tightly.
“No.” Nightmare forcefully shook off Illusion Fox’s hands.
Surprisingly strong, he staggered, leaning against the wall to stabilize himself.
“What do you want to ask?” Seeing this, Illusion Fox sighed deeply, no longer insisting.
“One answer.” Nightmare uttered each word deliberately, trying to sound firm, but his weak body kept him gasping for air.
“An answer, what do you an?” Illusion Fox’s heart fluttered.
A flash of guilt passed over her face but was quickly masked.
However, the keen Nightmare caught that mont.
“Illusion Fox, are you still not willing to tell the truth?
You let yourself get captured on purpose, didn’t you?” Nightmare’s emotions escalated as he spoke, and by the end, he almost roared out these words.
“How…
how did you know?” Illusion Fox opened her mouth in surprise, accidentally blurting out, then quickly covered her mouth with her hand, but it was too late.
Nightmare’s expression grew colder and colder, his already pale skin appearing even more ghostly.
“How did you find out, tell , how did you know?” Illusion Fox, emotionally crumbling, clenched Nightmare’s arm tightly, shaking him continuously.
“So it is true.” Nightmare suddenly chuckled coldly as if mocking himself.
“Do you know why I knew you were deceiving and still risked my life to co here?” Nightmare stared intently into Illusion Fox’s eyes.
Indeed, Worm had traveled all the way from the Netherworld Palace base to Hong Kong for a recording, made just today morning after everyone had breakfast.
The content of the recording was shockingly unbelievable.
“This morning, at the Hong Kong TV Tower observation deck, co with Nightmare.”
“Understood.”
The latter was uttered by Illusion Fox, while the forr was spoken by Refining Mo.
When Nightmare heard this recording, his heart nearly broke, stunned and angry.
At the sa ti, he was puzzled, why would Illusion Fox do this when they had reconciled?
Thus, when he received the call from Refining Mo challenging him to a fight, his initial reaction was urgent, fueled by the desire to save soone.
But after hearing the recording, he still resolutely decided to go to the park to rescue, despite knowing the life-threatening risks involved.
Nightmare sought one answer — the true words from Illusion Fox’s heart.
