Dance Of The Phoenix
130. Dragon and Phoenix (2)

"Revelation!" Gu Yuena pulled Bai Youzhe tightly until the man was dragged backwards, while Gu Yuena turned around and closed her eyes.

It darted to his back then as well.

However, there was nothing Gu Yuena felt like in her shadow. He turned his head back, seeing a light beam centered from an object as big as a palm floating in the air. It blocked the attack of the small objects that wanted to pierce through his heart from behind, protecting Gu Yuena's body from the attack.

It was the heart-protective scales of Bai Youzhe.

Gu Yuena relaxed her shoulders. His life was saved.

Just as Gu Yuena was relieved for a moment, several 'bullets' reappeared in greater numbers. The heart-protective scales returned to their place, while Gu Yuena's body was attracted to the hold of the person in front of her.

Bai Youzhe made a huge barrier that blocked the attack of the Demon Lord. He was surprised by Gu Yuena's sudden move. Fortunately, the heart's protective scales protect it and can act in a timely manner.

In this condition, the Demon Lord made a huge bet to kill the enemy in a single strike. When the objects were taken out, the Demon Lord fully displayed a weakness where his body was no longer in protection.

This is a golden opportunity.

Gu Yuena looked at Bai Youzhe who looked serious for a while. He then turned his head towards the Demon Lord who was still maintaining his weapon. In an instant, he had the same thought as Bai Youzhe after seeing the situation of the Demon Lord who was betting.

Bai Youzhe could not long maintain the shield due to the high pressure. His shield would be destroyed, so it would have to act faster.

The dragon in the sky was moving towards the Demon Lord, while the phoenix that had previously been in a moment of confusion due to the attack of the Demon Lord was now conscious.

The Phoenix exerted its power within a large area, causing the seal to be hot and burning. A layer of ice appeared around the seal, then it was centered on the sky in the form of a huge blade like a crystal sword. It contained a more corrosive fire power supported by a phoenix fire field that fused in each sword.

This was felt by the Demon Lord, before an explosion of magic exploded in the air as the sword slid downwards. The attention of the demon lord was distracted, at that very instant the phoenix flew towards him and burned its body ferociously.

The Devil Lord's defensive abilities weakened and he could not dodge quickly. When his gaze shifted upwards, a mountain-sized sword pressed down by the dragon fell on his body.

The Demon Lord's attack came to a halt, it fell and shattered into pieces engulfed in flames. The sword pressed the Demon Lord downwards until it pierced through the ground and dug it so deep, creating an incredible explosion that everyone could feel.

If not for the seal, the explosion would have definitely messed up the phoenix Palace right then and there.

A magic mist flew through the air, being absorbed by the seal before finally showing the sight of a large hole in the middle of the scope of the seal. It was deep and dark like a ravine without life.

Bai Youzhe was on the edge of the abyss, with Gu Yuena in her arms and the shield that held the explosion. He looked rather tired from expending so much strength. While Gu Yuena was silent since earlier.

How big the explosion was. When the explosion just happened, he thought that the two of them would be blasted to the point of not being able to see anything other than the flames outside the shield. The combined attack was very powerful.

"It's over?" Gu Yuena still could not believe it.

"It's over." Bai Youzhe returned to her bucino mode and hugged Gu Yuena wholeheartedly. He felt very happy to see Gu Yuena's effort to protect him earlier. Very happy until his heart flowers.

While Gu Yuena was still unable to digest properly. Looking towards the large hole nearby, he sighed and returned Bai Youzhe's embrace.

Issuing such a huge force hurt Gu Yuena internally. His mouth slightly spat blood out until it coughed, making Bai Youzhe somewhat worried and slightly taking off a hug to look at her.

"I'm fine." Gu Yuena did not want to take off the embrace, pulling Bai Youzhe to stick to her.

Not only did Gu Yuena unleash great power, she also fought with herself which made her feel extremely tired and weak. He also closed his eyes.

Bai Youzhe realized Gu Yuena wanted to rest. He rubbed his back gently while hugging her. He misses this hug so much after so long.

However, it came to a halt when a warm, red liquid suddenly dripped down from Bai Youzhe's direction. Bai Youzhe realized something cold was touching her stomach, making warm liquid come out from there. His face became paler, whereas he endured the pain while maintaining his calm countenance and tightening the embrace.

Behind that, a delicate hand pulled a knife into Bai Youzhe's stomach, making blood continue to flow from there and soaking the clothes with red liquid. The dagger was full of red color dripping onto the ground, before it was finally dropped just like that onto the ground.

A cold smile was engraved on those red lips, before finally taking off a hug to look at the pale figure before him. The iris that was previously blood red, was now completely blackened with a sharp look and an evil smile.

"Done," he whispered.

There was no other reaction on Bai Youzhe's face other than enduring the pain of such a deep stab. He looked at the woman in front of him, before finally the woman touched his shoulder and pressed him with spiritual power. Bai Youzhe fell down right then and there.

Bai Youzhe could barely say anything as it endured the excruciating pain. Regeneration faltered. The dagger contained magic that stopped its regeneration like poison.

"Isn't it painful?" The woman crouched down in front of Bai Youzhe, looking at the man's face clearly. "You don't even realize there's another danger near you."

It wasn't Gu Yuena. Bai Youzhe was very understanding. Unfortunately, he could not hurt the woman for using Gu Yuena's body. When the woman actually killed him, Bai Youzhe did not have much to comment other than trying to wake Gu Yuena up.

"Mrs ...."

"Bai Youzhe, you've been dumped. Aren't you angry and trying to kill me? Let's kill me!" The woman laughed at how helpless Bai Youzhe was in front of her.

Isn't it sad to know the danger ahead but to be unable to get rid of it?

"I used to be so stupid as to think I could handle everything myself. Using others is not bad." The woman stood up, letting Bai Youzhe endure the pain there alone. He said again, "The demonic aura is very pleasant, making me stronger. Your nana will be hard to come back. Bai Youzhe, you should have granted my last wish."

"You're not him."

"I am him, and he is me. What difference? Rather than showing a very visible weakness in the eyes of the enemy, it was better to get rid of it at once. I'm helping."

"You're just the dark side, unable to represent his entire will," Bai Youzhe replied.

Bai Youzhe might be surprised to learn that Gu Yuena went through two different lives. However, he already knew this from Gu Yuena directly. He already knew all the worst sides at once and no matter what happened in the past.

So, Bai Youzhe automatically assumed that the woman was simply repeating a remark that she had heard.

Bai Youzhe stood up while enduring the pain of stabbing in her stomach. It was indeed very painful, but he could not give up on bringing Gu Yuena back.

He approached the woman, then said, "You should have mastered her consciousness after taking the opportunity when she was running out of spiritual power."

The woman snorted, then crossed her chest. "Is the stabbing lacking in you? It seems to be true."

The woman picked up the fallen dagger, then was about to stab Bai Youzhe in the chest. However, Bai Youzhe moved in time to hold the woman down using the remaining magic. He attempted to draw Gu Yuena's original consciousness by supporting her soul force.

Bai Youzhe had soul power in her body. He used that to replenish Gu Yuena's depleted strength, making his consciousness awaken.

"What are you doing?" The woman looked agitated. His consciousness was being forcefully drawn into the spiritual realm right then and there, making Gu Yuena's body fall empty.

Bai Youzhe immediately caught him. No matter how much it hurt to catch Gu Yuena, he left Gu Yuena unconscious in his arms.

In the spiritual realm, Gu Yuena slapped the woman hard until she almost bounced away. Although it made Gu Yuena sick, she did not care.

The woman laughed at the treatment. He looked at Gu Yuena with a soft look. "You angry?"

"No, I'm so happy I want to kill you."

"I heard a similar sentence a while ago before you finally fell into the dark."

"Didn't you vent your emotions? Get lost!" Gu Yuena was furious at this moment. It was fortunate that Bai Youzhe's strength suited him, thus successfully awakening his consciousness.

"I won't leave until it's all avenged."

"I will avenge myself, not through anyone else."

"We are the same person."

"We?" Gu Yuena laughed blankly. "As you said before, I know myself better than anyone else. You don't know my ambitions, my desires, my dreams, everything! You only know how to destroy it!"

"Don't you hate yourself?" The woman smiled obliquely, then approached Gu Yuena. "You hate yourself enough to kill yourself, but you can't do it. So, what about achieving everything with power? If Bai Youzhe dies, you will rule the Underworld and the Mitian Plains."

"You don't know what I want."

"That's your wish, and I'll grant it."

Gu Yuena looked at him with a depressed feeling of anger. He must end this mistake. "I hate myself, it's true. I hate myself for letting you get up and screwing things up. What else does jal*ng like you want to get rid of me?"

"Gu Yuena, do you know you've become weak because of this? If only you had taken advantage of the opportunity to kill the previous Demon Lord and did not choose to protect Bai Yiouzhe—"

"It was my decision, not yours!"

"It was a stupid act."

"Yes, I'm stupid. Then you're more stupid and an idiot!" Gu Yuena snorted. It cannot end with words. "You want to lose everything, right? Then enjoy your lost freedom."

Gu Yuena used her spiritual power to bind the woman. The woman was surprised, as she managed to get tied up without making Gu Yuena hurt. What the hell's going on?

"You are the devil of the heart, the dark side, and the negative emotions. You think during hibernation, I didn't think of a way to destroy you?" Gu Yuena narrowed her eyes, "Unfortunately, a stupid woman like you who only knows how to kill, will not think about it at all." He wrapped the woman tighter and pushed her deep into the darkness.

"Gu Yuena, I won't disappear as long as your heart is filled with anger and resentment!" his roar.

"Then eat that anger and grudge forever."

The red magic devoured the woman slowly, until her figure turned into a lump of hardened red rock in the air. Before the chunk actually sealed it, the woman showed a terrifying evil laugh.

"Gu Yuena, you can't kill me unless you kill yourself. I'll be back!" The woman laughed at how hard Gu Yuena was trying to seal it. Although Gu Yuena was stronger, she was no less powerful either. He will come back to kill everyone in the world.

Eternal peace must be made!

"Based on a lunatic," sneered Gu Yuena. After doing the sealing, he felt his soul getting sicker and coughed. His body seemed to spit out blood again.

While asleep during that period, he was trying to figure out how he was. He got lost and forgot his original intentions, almost uniting with the woman. Then, he realized that all this was not true.

Gu Yuena was Gu Yuena, unable to mix stir with any other figure. Although that figure was the demon of his heart, he was another form formed from negative emotions. He is someone else.

Anger and vengeance remain forever. That person could not die, as it had been embedded in his worst heart. Only by sealing it could it stop all such senseless deeds.

It's a very complicated time.

Looking back at the demon bone in his hand, it was already filled with approximately 1000 blood and souls. That soul had been extracted into its power fused with the soul force, whereas blood was used for sacrifice. Gu Yuena would not wear it anymore for herself, as it would only make the heart demon even stronger.

Having already collected 1000 blood, it was time for him to return to the palace.
