The Legend of the Dragon King (Web Novel) - Chapter 1951: Two Rings

Chapter 1951 Two Rings The sense of danger drove her to panic.How could this happen?

Yuanen Yehui forcibly halted her turning action at once. Her gaze was focused as she unleashed the Purple Demon Eyes. At the same time, she flipped her hands to shield her body.

Precisely at this exact moment, she felt a tiny crystal-like object appear in her perception.

It was extremely peculiar. It felt as if the object did not exist in time and space, yet a fragment of it seemed to belong to space-time.

What was that…

She unleashed a Titan Divine Punch subconsciously in an attempt to block it. However, the tiny crystal-like object passed through the Titan Divine Punch just by flickering once.

The object had seemingly returned to the spot in an instant where the previous attack was delivered. By the time Yuanen Yehui reacted to the situation, the crystal was already before her.

Soon after, Xie Xie’s silhouette was revealed in a flicker. One of his eyes was black while the other was white. His whole person seemed to be in an awfully strange form at the moment.

It was his ninth soul skill, the Hyperspace Strike!

It was Xie Xie’s trump card. He had brought it up before Yuanen Yehui in the past. It was a soul skill which he had not utilized even when he was fighting against the abyssal creatures.

He told Yuanen Yehui that his ninth soul skill was an all-out skill. It was a make or break soul skill.

As a result, even Yuanen Yehui had no idea how powerful this soul skill of Xie Xie was either.

Judging by their capabilities, Yuanen Yehui was certainly superior to Xie Xie. Yet, they were a couple after all! In reality, Yuanen Yehui had kept her reservations during the battle earlier. She had not gone to great lengths in a true sense.

On the other hand, Xie Xie obviously went all-out. As the battle progressed and their abilities were almost at par, Yuanen Yehui was rendered incapable of avoiding the Hyperspace Strike anymore.

Yuanen Yehui frowned. She never expected Xie Xie would actually try to kill her. However, she relied on her vast combat experience to evade the attack. Her four-word battle armor was unleashed instantly to protect her!

However, she only truly understood the most terrifying part of the Hyperspace Strike when it arrived.

It felt as if the sharpness had already made contact with the inside of her battle armor as the void flickered.

The strike actually possessed the ability similar to the abyssal Sage King’s super divine weapon, the Heaven Saint Crack Abyss which ignored all defenses.

In fact, it was highly possible that it was Xie Xie’s first time in utilizing the all-out skill. It was precisely due its abruptness that it was irresistible!

Yes, it was irresistible!

Yuanen Yehui was caught in a daze at the moment. She watched in bewilderment as Xie Xie was just a short distance away from her, yet, his arm had punched into her battle armor in its illusory state.

‘Is, is he going to kill me?”

However, it was also at this exact moment when she saw Xie Xie smile. His initially ice cold face cracked into a faint smile.

It felt as if time came to a complete stop at this very instant. Then, Yuanen Yehui watched in astonishment when Xie Xie’s hand, which had punctured her four-word battle armor, came to a halt. The feeling of sharpness that felt threatening had also vanished. Meanwhile, his body was still frozen over there as a dagger was stabbed precisely into his chest.

All the illusions were gone at this very moment. The blood drained from Xie Xie’s face. His body went limp. He fell onto Yuanen Yehui as his arm was locked in Yuanen Yehui’s four-word battle armor.

“Oh…”

Yuanen Yehui shrieked aloud. She felt the hot blood rushing in her body in an instant. She hastily held Xie Xie and descended from the sky.

“What, what are you doing? You…” She had no clue what just transpired. Why did it suddenly develop into this situation? However, she clearly felt Xie Xie’s life force draining wildly as if he was being devoured by another world.

Xie Xie lay in her arms. His face looked queer. His eyes were still as bright as before, but those eyes were no longer in two different colors like earlier.

He muttered to himself, “Yuanen, do you consider that I won the spar?”

“What’s there to win? Have you gone mad? What’s wrong with you? Tell me quickly, what the heck is going on? What should I do now?”

One should realize that Shrek Academy had already lost the Holy Spirit Douluo who could resurrect the dead and regrow flesh from bones!

Xie Xie said with a bitter smile, “I’ve no idea why it turned out this way either. Frankly, I made a pact with big brother, Yue Zhengyu, and Xu Lizhi. We had discussed in advance that we would propose to all of you on the same day. Yet, you told me before that you won’t agree to marry me unless I can beat you in a spar. Your father has insisted on it as well. I’ve no other choice, but to challenge you today.”

“I’m well aware that it’s almost impossible for me to defeat you by relying on my capabilities. I utilized the final all-out skill, just so I stand a chance of winning. Apparently, I’ve succeeded. But, I didn’t expect that the all-out skill could not be stopped. When I wanted to retract it, I realized that I needed to look for another medium in space-time so as to misdirect the Hyperspace Strike. The perspicasity of this strike is to exterminate the opponent by devouring space-time. Even I couldn’t escape it. Between you and I, I chose to endure it myself. Yuanen, I’m sorry. I can’t be with you anymore.”

“Oh…” Yuanen Yehui was stupefied. She never expected this to happen. ‘How could this be… How could this be…’

Xie Xie committed a foolish act to fulfill her request. Everything happened too quick for her to react. If one were to say that she was living in the joyous heavens, the final moment felt as though she was in hell.

“How could you do this? You’re an idiot! I only meant it as a joke. If you proclaim your intention, how could I reject your proposal? Why did you have to do this?” Tears began streaming down Yuanen Yehui’s face uncontrollably.

In the meantime, Xie Xie’s body had turned illusory in her hands.

Xie Xie said with a bitter smile, “I don’t have the courage to try it! I’m really scared of being rejected by you. Yet, I love you very much. I’m sorry, Yuanen. Please don’t cry.”

As he spoke, he raised his shaking hand to conjure a small box in his palm. He opened the lid of the box, revealing two rings inside.

The larger ring was a golden crystal. It contained the rich earth element aura and was crystal clear with patterns of two little dragon on the surface.

The smaller purple-gold ring had an indistinct image of light which resembled a pair of wings on its surface.

“You have two martial souls. As a result, I prepared two rings for you. I may not live. So, will you please let me see you put them on before I leave this world?”

“You’re going to be fine. I’m going to take you to see big brother. Big brother will certainly be able to figure out a way to save you.” Yuanen Yehui carried Xie Xie with her face drenched in tears. She was about to leave.

It was precisely then that she felt the weight on her arms lessen. Xie Xie’s body passed through her arms and dropped to the ground. At the same time, the two rings landed on the ground.

“Yuanen, I love you.” Xie Xie’s eyes were filled with affection.

Yuanen Yehui cried aloud in sorrow and picked up the two rings. “Xie Xie, Xie Xie, please don’t die. I love you too. Please don’t die!”

However, Xie Xie was seemingly unable to speak. He gazed at the rings in a daze.

Yuanen Yehui tried to grab onto his body repeatedly. However, his body had become an illusion completely. Regardless of how hard she tried, her arms would pass through his body.

There was no time to look for Tang Wulin anymore.

Yuanen Yehui’s heart wrenched in pain. She slipped the two rings on both her left and right ring fingers individually. Tears were flowing down her face.

“I’ve put it on, I’ve put it on! Xie Xie, please don’t die, please don’t die! I will say yes to anything as long as you live…”

Suddenly, Xie Xie blinked when he saw her put on the two rings. His initial dim gaze appeared to brighten up a little.
