The Demon Swordsman 3
Ch. 268 - A Promise and an Initial Sheet
"Wherever you go, I want to be by your side."
A pair of sapphire eyes opened, his body sitting down in the blink of an eye. The first Ren Yuan realized it was stunned.
"You awake? Thank goodness..."
Feng Yong also did not expect him and Ren Yuan to be able to save someone whose life was already on the edge of the horn. Yet just as Ren Yuan looked happy, he was sad again.
"Thank you... You guys have taken care of me" Fu Hua said, bowing his head.
"You've taken care of my son, Miss Fu. Unfortunately, he ..."
Tears dripped on Ren Yuan's cheeks, he explained that now Xin Fai and Xin Zhan had spread an announcement to look for Xin Chen's whereabouts. All of the Empire's soldiers and Pillars spread throughout but unfortunately no one had ever found any trace of his second son.
Ren Yuan opened the window, the pain in his chest growing increasingly tight. Fu Hua woke up limping, not believing what he saw outside.
The flickering is so beautiful in the sky, the blue glow sometimes also bright red. The ground in their courtyard was also being flowed by streams of light that spread all over the place.
Ye Long had been acting wild ever since Xin Chen left, he had killed many humans and ended up being a hunted.
When Ren Yuan explained everything the ten fingers of Fu Hua were shaking, about the Seal of Destruction that would end Xin Chen's life. Today is the day of its determination. Fu Hua stepped on the beautiful rocky path, a speck of blue light descending as he raised his hand. Unknowingly tears were dripping down her cheeks.
"It can't be ..."
Fu Hua ran after the light that just left.
"I want to always be by your side ..."
The light was gone, Fu Hua fell down, her whole body was shed as well as her tears.
Until a rude growl rang out and ran towards him, a black demon lunged towards Fu Hua at that very instant.

The last stage, the Red Crystals reappeared and circled Xin Chen's entire body. A wave of violent tremors devastated Hu Yaongi. Streams of light on the ground shattered the ground and made it fly airborne over the sky, flakes and stone ruins drifting against gravity. The infected are the same, they are like ants in the wind.
The entire body was full of internal external wounds, eyes that were starting to be unable to see and his breathing was so weak. His veins were pulsing very slowly, the recovery in his body could no longer be done because Xin Chen had already used all of his strength.
That night, the cold carried a terrifying whisper. Xin Chen could feel it, the death was again felt very close. He had prepared for it, now his body would be uprooted in a matter of seconds.
Feels so powerful, the Seal of Destruction began to eat his body and soul. The flickering in the sky and the flow of seal lines on the ground Hu Yaongi again radiated. Then less than a second of such force broke apart and killed millions of undead, the entire body falling down motionless again. The infected had ended in that second, all without exception.
The veil in Hu Yaongi's sky shone brightly, becoming the end of the Seal of Destruction. The Red Crystals burst apart, then at the same time the Demon Tears unleashed a single deadly attack that would be the end of the extermination ritual. Such a bright light came out from the Demon Tears. One attack in one second that would have claimed Xin Chen's life. And that's called absoluteness.
"This is your end." The Light Devil started to release Xin Chen's hand. The young man began to lose his balance, at which point not a single speck of his strength remained. It might also be the reason why the devil had to take his life without a chance to save himself.
"Welcome, New Era," he said faintly.
"Xin Chen!!"
Xin Chen turned his head back, from before him the light shone very brightly and would kill anyone without exception. The girl kept approaching him despite knowing he would also die in the attack. Fu Hua hugged her so tightly, not going to let go even though Xin Chen was trying to get rid of her.
"Let me stay with you to the end."

However the one thing that made Fu Hua certain this was not a dream, she could feel Xin Chen's little finger that was clinging to her pinky, so real.
Her last memory made Fu Hua sure of one thing, "If this isn't a dream, is this heaven?"
A soft voice answered.
"He doesn't miss me, Fu Hua."
That voice, when Fu Hua heard it she immediately cried.
"You're the dumbest girl I've ever known, if you die then I'll leave regret. I can't let that happen ..."
Fu Hua did not care, his cries grew louder. Xin Chen sat down.
"You in hell or in heaven doesn't matter either, I ... I just don't want to be alone. I want to be with you always."
Xin Chen smiled weakly, "Look around you, we're still in the same place."
Fu Hua raised his face and realized they were still in Hu Yaongi. It was Ye Long who had taken him there and had no idea where the dragon had gone now. Disbelief filled the hue of her face flushed red from crying, those beautiful eyes looking back at Xin Chen full of question marks.
"W-what happened?"
Xin Chen took out something, something like a jewel that Fu Hua had never known but only felt it he knew that the gem was the strongest Earth Ruler Demon gem, that was the Ice Dragon.
"I thought this would be the end of my life. When you want to risk your life with me, I'm not sure I can settle down in the afterlife without regret."
The Ice Dragon Gem has the special power of speeding up and slowing down time. A second can stretch into an hour. In the last one second before the attack of the Devil of Light killed Xin Chen, the gem unleashed its power and saved the two. The Light Devil himself had disappeared after that final attack.
Fu Hua covered her face, her crying became more and more, it meant that both of them were still alive.
"Fu Hua," he called. "Have I saved you?"
"You ..." His voice trembled, he rubbed his continuously wet cheeks. "Always managed to save me."
The girl did not care anymore, she immediately hugged Xin Chen tightly, afraid of losing somehow for how many times. Xin Chen stroked his head while whispering softly.
"I promised I wouldn't count it, I wanted to always be a savior for you and everyone. Therefore, stay by my side, forever."
Xin Chen raised his pinky while chuckling, "You promised?"
Fu Hua nodded with her wet sapphire eyes, frowning her pinky as she said,
"I promise."
