The Demon Swordsman 3
Ch. 60 - To the End
The strength in Huo Rong's body seemed to be sucked out. He is unable to breathe in a stable manner. If this was the case, Huo Rong would really die. Power taken. Just like the other Earth Ruler Demon that the Dark Dragon had killed.
The Dark Dragon did not release him at all.
Xin Chen was unaware that Huo Rong was in a difficult situation. Currently Xin Zhan's life was under threat. The entire black eyes on Xin Fai's body had vanished and now the men were fighting uncontrollably. The two humans in front of him were his enemies. Almost without feeling.
Huo Rong had no hope anymore. In that instant, he had to accept death. I don't know how many times. But before that she was lucky to be helped by Shui. But now even to breathe alone, Shui was unable to. The Water Dragon had already entered its dying final seconds. Only Huo Rong remained who would probably die earlier than Shui.
"I'm sorry ..."
"I left you. You okay?"
That sound. Making Huo Rong shocked was not playing. But unfortunately his eyes were not able to capture clearly a figure of a cloaked man and face covered with a hood in front of him. He was so familiar with the voice, like a pulse in his hand. That figure, the human figure he missed the most over the years.
But is it possible, after a long time missed. Is he still alive?
Or was it just an illusion that Huo Rong created herself before her death?
"I'm..."
Huo Rong lost her voice. His eyes tried to open, slowly and repeatedly blinked. Until finally Huo Rong realized that the presence was pseudo. He just missed the human figure too much by his side, and in his final moments like this, he really wanted the human to be here to just say goodbye.
Because to the current Huo Rong, her friend was still alive. Whether in any hemisphere, he still thinks that someday they will be met. I don't know in an unexpected way. The thing he believed so far turned out to be just a falsehood that he created.
The Fire Power of the Fire Salamander had moved into a red circle at the mouth of the Dark Dragon. His fire element had taken the dragon away, completely. But somehow Huo Rong was still able to breathe.
The body of the Flame Salamander that was previously filled with flames slowly dimmed. The fire stopped blazing and extinguished leaving him lying almost lifeless. Huo Rong did not feel any more the flow of great power that had been flowing in her blood. Even the Fire Goddess who had been with him had disappeared. All he can do is surrender. His body would not move, his life spirit had long been extinguished with his flames.
One thing he regretted, why he still lives until this moment. Without strength that is everything to him. Strength was pride for Huo Rong. When it's gone, let's just say he's dead.
"Huo Rong's! Wake up!"
The voice calling out drowned in his ears, Huo Rong could no longer recognize who was yelling for him. The power in his body that had been sucked up by the opponent was now almost completely exhausted, until the last point before it was completely exhausted. Huge blows come to cause a noise that does not play games.
Embossed drowning. The sound of the fight happened within a few seconds until it finally moved away. Huo Rong snorted softly, breathing intermittently. Even the death that was in front of his eyes was reluctant to come to take his life. It is hard to rest.
With the rest of his final strength, Huo Rong used that to transform his form into a human form. The nation has always been his concern. Huo Rong had thought that if she were born as a human, would she have many friends? Or a warm family? A great teacher? And those who love him. It seems like it's very fun. He's almost never felt that before.
Rain drops began to fall from the low clouds, not feeling a torrent of heavy rain falling down on his battered body. Devastated mercilessly by the Dark Dragon.
The state of his human body is not much different from his stealth form. His head was leaking with eyes that were almost invisible again due to a large bruise on the face. His mouth was torn and his nose was broken - to the extent of his skull, his body burned until his skin was flaking red. His whole body only looks red flesh which is even still smoky. As severe as his condition was, if he were truly human, Huo Rong would not be able to breathe until that second.
Huo Rong laughed even though her throat was choked, numb. His fingers tried to move, raising his hand upwards as if he could grasp a wisp of black clouds above him. Then, Huo Rong involuntarily let out tears.
"Always dying like this, but never dying."
The pain made him want to scream. Huo Rong did not care what happened to the surroundings anymore because all the pain in her body had seized the contents of her mind that was getting more and more controlling.
Often this way. Every time Huo Rong was ganged up on by her opponent; greedy humans wanted her strength. He was smashed after going through an all-out fight and always survived them. Then lay down for days, almost giving off the smell of carrion. He didn't want to die, but he wanted to die.
He can only speak in his heart. 'Maybe like before, I just need to wait a few days with my eyes open. No one helped me. Then I'll wake up alone, live life like before. Then it fell again like this.'
A smile was engraved wide at the corner of his lips. Huo Rong dropped her hand to the ground, making the puddle of rainwater split apart. His chest is up and down.
And he just thought. That previously he had survived because of his own stealth strength. Which automatically recovered his body, as long as his breathing was still there. No problem, any big wounds. He can still live even if only the remains of his body without legs or hands.
But now whether Huo Rong could survive, if her power had been absorbed by the Dark Dragon and nothing was left of her. In addition to that weak human form.
The smoke from his body began to dissipate by the swift rain. His ears could hear the sound of someone's treads, so calm his way through the swift rain. Then the figure knelt down, putting a finger under his nose.
"Thank God, you're alive."
Although the figure also looked in pain, he tried to clutch at Huo Rong's body. Carrying it a few meters until they finally got away from the location of a very dangerous fight.
"You ..."
"I'm Xin Zhan."
Quiet for a long time. Xin Zhan immediately made a recovery to seal the outer wound on Huo Rong's body, however he could. Huo Rong shook her head.
"No need. You're just wasting your strength. Use it to fight and win this war."
"I can't let you die in the middle of the road. Shut up, I'll treat your wounds."
"What if I refuse?"
Xin Zhan paused for a moment, but before long came a reply from him.
"Rather than saving my strength to fight alone. It would be best if I share some, so that you can fight with us. Till the end."
