Chapter 210: Till Death Do Us Part
Lu Heng's words caused a bitter smile to appear on the elegantly dressed woman.
She let out a long sigh and said, "Since you have come, I presume you know about Huo Feng's condition. Now, I have been possessed by the Moluo Sword and merged with the Moluo Evil Sword. The Mermaid Kingdom wants to kill me, but I have no resentment."
"However, Caiyi is innocent and I am worried about her…"
The woman's plaintive sigh gave off a feeling of a tragic heroine in a play.
Lu Heng laughed heartily and said, "Brother Huo, do you intend to entrust your wife to us? You're calling Caiyi so affectionately… It seems that sharing a home and meals for some time has indeed fostered some feelings. Do tell, have you fallen for her now?"
Lu Heng's teasing made the woman's face instantly reddened, and the melancholic atmosphere of the female protagonist in a tragic drama collapsed in an instant.
"Senior!" Huo Feng looked embarrassed.
Lu Heng chuckled, then became serious, his expression became solemn.
"Well, since I'm here, I can't allow the Mermaid Kingdom to determine your life and death."
"The murderer is Moluo Evil Spirit, not you, Huo Feng. If you still have a chance, I, Lu Heng, will protect you no matter what… Of course, if you are really completely controlled by Moluo Evil Spirit, don't blame me."
After finishing his words, Lu Heng went straight to the woman under the withered tree, "Let me see your situation."
Upon seeing this scene, Huo Feng was immediately shocked and exclaimed, "Senior, please don't approach! This withered tree…"
Boom!
A piercing thunder suddenly sounded, and Lu Heng's white spirit body directly revealed the foundation of the heavenly thunder.
This spirit body was composed entirely of heavenly thunder, but usually restrained its ferocity, so it didn't differ much from ordinary spirit bodies.
However, now Lu Heng gave up suppressing the heavenly thunder and directly manifested it as its most essential power.
In an instant, the light of the heavenly thunder surged, and the aura of thunder was magnificent.
When the lightning-bright white spirit approached Huo Feng, numerous roots spread out from the ground, attempting to strangle and drive away Lu Heng.
However, the white spirit strolled leisurely and didn't even glance at the roots that emerged from the ground. The roots trembled violently upon touching the sky thunder and finally fell to the ground helplessly with no strength to retract back.
White-clothed Lu Heng came directly in front of Huo Feng's face with a smile.
The withered tree that had tortured Huo Feng many times was now completely still.
Behind Lu Heng, the snake-like, lifeless roots lying on the ground weakly and cautiously retracted back to the earth after Lu Heng passed, never daring to show themselves again.
This eerie and powerful withered tree had lost all its arrogance in the face of the Wolf God…
Under the withered tree, Lu Heng extended his right hand to Huo Feng with a smile, saying, "Brother Huo, let me examine your condition while you sit cross-legged and close your eyes."
Looking at the white-robed Wolf God before him, Huo Feng felt a flood of words in his stomach, but obediently followed the Wolf God's order, sitting cross-legged and focusing his mind.
In the next moment, the Wolf God's hand gently rested on her shoulder, beginning to examine her physical condition.
However, just as Lu Heng started, Huo Feng suddenly opened her eyes, with both eyes turning red in an instant.
Some dark and evil energy surged within the woman in front of him. In the face of Lu Heng's arrival, the Moluo Evil Spirit didn't hide at all, directly taking control of Huo Feng's body and revealing its demon shadow.
Under Lu Heng's astonished gaze, the woman before him, full of demonic energy, looked at him coldly and spoke.
"The Wolf God, if you want to save your friend, I can make a deal with you…"
Lu Heng was greatly surprised by Moluo Evil Spirit's words.
"You can still speak? You are indeed not an ordinary sword spirit."
Lu Heng withdrew his hand with a smile and said, "Tell me, what kind of deal do you want to make with me?"
The evil woman, full of evil demon, looked a little wary at Lu Heng's heavenly thunder body and moved back cautiously before speaking, "The Mermaid Kingdom and I have an endless connection. Now that I have fallen into the hands of these Mermaids, I am doomed. But if I am executed by the Mermaids, your friend will not survive either."
"However, if the Wolf God is willing to guarantee and save your friend, not letting the Mermaids kill her, and take us out of the South Sea, I will leave the body of this disciple of the Yun sect and set her free after leaving the South Sea."
"Afterwards, the Wolf God, you can pursue and try to kill me. It will all depend on our abilities… How about it? This should be the only solution that can achieve both goals."
Moluo Evil Spirit's proposal left Lu Heng quite surprised.
"Achieving both goals?" Under the withered tree, Lu Heng in white shook his head and said, "This is by no means a solution to achieve both goals… If I were to follow your proposal and let you, a demonic creature, escape, wouldn't I be aiding and abetting wrongdoing? Every innocent life you take in the future will have its consequences pinned on me."
Lu Heng rejected it by shaking his head and said, "This is not the answer I want, so I cannot agree to your proposal."
Without waiting for the woman to ask, Lu Heng smiled and said, "What Lu Heng wants is actually very simple, which is to save my friend while eliminating you. That is the outcome I desire."
"As for your proposal … Ha…Lu Heng never negotiates with demons."
"I will try to save Brother Huo, but if he cannot be saved, then I will have to kill you first. I believe Brother Huo will understand me."
Lu Heng's words sounded callous, causing the woman's expression to stiffen slightly.
She looked coldly at the Wolf God in front of her, her eyes disdainful. "So you are a hypocrite… for the sake of your reputation, you can sacrifice even your friend's life. Indeed, it is the style of an ancient monster. It's a pity that this young man mistook you and believed you would save him, but he didn't know he had been wrong from the very beginning."
Moluo's tone was contemptuous, but Lu Heng laughed and said, "Do you think I cannot deal with you being so full of confidence?"
The woman gave a cold smile and said, "I am connected with this young man's soul, unable to be separated. Unless I choose to leave on my own, even if the Emperor himself descended, there would be no hope."
"I am now intertwined with this young man, even until death cannot separate us… if Lord Wolf God doubts it, you may try and see if I am deceiving you."
Moluo Evil Spirit is confident about his close connection with Huo Feng.
Lu Heng smiled slightly and said, "If that's the case, then I'll give it a try."
After speaking, the white-robed soul directly reached out and grabbed the woman full of evil demons in front of him. While smiling, the fierce heavenly thunder immediately merged into the woman's body.
When the thunder that urgently killed the evil demons rushed in, the woman full of evil demons screamed and instinctively tried to break free.
"Are you crazy?!" Moluo Evil Spirit exclaimed in horror, "If you act like this, both I and the young man of the Yun sect will be dead!"
Under the withered tree, the woman full of evil demons tried to struggle. However, the mighty power of the heavenly thunder was overwhelming, and now she didn't even dare to resist in the slightest, afraid that her evil demons would attract even more violent heavenly thunder.
She could only sit there stiffly with horror and pain, letting the man in white catch her and scream miserably.
In the flashing of the pale thunder, the woman's frightened eyes saw the slight smile of white-clothed Lu Heng.
Lu Heng smiled, "Don't worry, you won't lose your soul."
"I am confident in my control of the heavenly thunder. I won't lose control."
Moluo Evil Spirit looked terrified at this.
Even if she wouldn't lose control and lose her soul, she would have unbearable pain!
This white-clothed Wolf God… was clearly intentionally tormenting her!
