The Emperor God Wife Is Naughty
235. Mental Pressure

The cold flames are burning. Xie Ruo stood on it unaffected as if he was stirring from the flames. He raised his hand towards Dean Bai who was trying to recuperate while maintaining the shield, a silver light shot out from his hand.

"Dead ...."

When the silver light was about to glide, a hand suddenly grasped his arm causing the silver light to stifle with what magic.

Xie Ruo's face grew dark. Without saying anything, he twisted his own arm and grabbed the shoulder of the figure and was about to slam it backwards. But it was precisely he who jumped to the back of the figure because it was completely unaffected by its pressure.

The cold flames were pulled by him, then used on his body to break free. He would straighten his fists firmly, but his arms were held back. Worse, the cold flames on his body were extinguished.

Out of annoyance, Xie Ruo jumped backwards no matter what his hand would break or not. The person took off his grasp letting him jump, then gave a hard bow kick.

The figure suddenly disappeared. In the next second, golden magic wrapped around both of his hands to the point of being unable to move before Xie Ruo finally felt an unusual paralysis. He could not move all parts of the body, while all his strength was suppressed to the limit.

Xie Ruo was surprised. Her irises returned to normal blue in an empty state. His gaze straight ahead with a puzzled look, he again clearly saw all the chaos that had been made, as well as the figure of the man holding him right in front of him.

Xie Ruo was silent for a while, seemingly trying to digest what had actually happened. His gaze was full of surprise, before it was finally filled with fear.

He glanced in whispers calling the figure. "Mirgini ...."

Qu Xuanzi was right before him with an anxious look, even his forehead wrinkled—although a flat face was more visible. He approached Xie Ruo, then fused their eyebrows to transfer mental strength while hugging the woman.

"Don't ignore them, they're just illusions." Qu Xuanzi knew what Xie Ruo was going through when his mental strength was connected to Xie Ruo's mental strength.

Negative emotions gave Xie Ruo a very powerful illusion by bringing up many people of meaning to him. It all made Xie Ruo forget, what his purpose was here and who he really was.

Xie Ruo nodded slowly as he closed his eyes, suppressing all the emotions devouring him. For a moment, he did not remember anything and was carried away by the emotion of a war filled with killing intent. Not to mention there were many shadows that made his killing intent increase, coupled with the voices of his teacher's support in the past.

Xie Ruo remembered what he had done. He clearly smelled the scent of blood all over his body. Mirisnya again, all that blood is not just demon blood. In fact, he had killed many people with his own hands.

He could feel many miserable emotions around him. Everyone who died in his hands, he could feel how their feelings were increasingly affecting his mind. Although he actually did not care much, he felt terrorized until fear again rained on him.

"I killed them." Xie Ruo felt like he was going crazy.

"No."

"I almost killed my own friends and teachers."

"That's not true." Qu Xuanzi tried to convince him.

"I tried to kill them, that's a fact!"

"You're controlled." Qu Xuanzi confirmed his words as he looked at Xie Ruo. Xie Ruo was silent. "You're not wrong, you're just controlled. They'll understand."

Xie Ruo did not care if they understood his condition or not. All he cared about was the fact that he had failed. Instead of protecting, he killed them all and nearly killed his own friend. He even nearly killed the teacher who educated him about morals.

However, one thing suddenly made his mental fall once again.

"Xuanzi .. I killed him."

Qu Xuanzi circulated his gaze seeing Dean Bai spewing out a mouthful of blood. The old man looked extremely exhausted from expending too much strength. Plus, the seal damaged his body.

A golden light shot out from Qu Xuanzi's hands, encompassing Dean Bai to take out all the seals entangling his body. Plus, the storm the Demon God made further reduced his life force.

Pei Xi and the others—including Liu Chang— suddenly with a feeling of anxiety. But when they saw Qu Xuanzi already present to calm Xie Ruo down, they all heaved a sigh of relief and relaxed shoulders. Thank goodness the staff has come.

However, the thing that made them panic again, Dean Bai's condition was getting worse. They hurriedly swarmed him. Mei Liena quickly gave him the medicinal pill.

Unfortunately, Dean Bai's condition had not changed.

Qu Xuanzi did not say anything and retracted his strength. Dean Bai's condition was already too bad. His strength would only hurt the frail old man if it continued.

Looking at Qu Xuanzi who was just silent without doing anything, it was already clear the answer to them. Dean Bai's face was very pale, his body was cold, his eyes were also faint.

Until finally the old man closed his eyes after whispering something briefly to Liu Chang. Liu Chang was speechless without being able to say anything while looking at him tearfully, while his other companions looked down. Mei Liena and Zhong Xiaorong could not hold back the tears and began to sob.

Xie Ruo turned to look at her. His view became dim. He muttered very quietly, "Isn't he pathetic?" Just like his grandfather and parents, they were all pitiful. Xie Ruo thought, himself was just as pitiful.

Qu Xuanzi tightened his grip on Xie Ruo's palm. He could feel Xie Ruo's body trembling violently, yet his face looked flat as if all he saw was another unknown person. Qu Xuanzi knew what Xie Ruo was feeling right now. Feelings of guilt, failure, and sadness all come together. In just one moment, all the influential and important people in his life gradually left. It was a very hard blow.

Xie Ruo looked neither crying nor sad, as he knew this moment was not the right time to grieve. He just silently held everything alone, not wanting others to see his weak side.

As the Dean they had once respected and taught them to achieve glory and victory, they—including Xie Ruo—show in his honor. Mei Liena and Liu Chang took on the task of guarding her teacher until the storm dissipated and ushered in the final resting place.

They brought their teacher to safety, whereas Zhong Xiaorong and Yan Yao remained in place while enduring feelings of grief.

Zhong Xiaorong looked at the contemplating Xie Ruo looking at their departure. He approached, then hugged her and patted her on the back shoulder trying to lower the guilt.

"It's not your fault, don't blame yourself." Zhong Xiaorong knew Xie Ruo clearly. He had already heard the news that Xie Wang had left, it was a hard blow for Xie Ruo. It gave her a reason to get negative emotions because of her chaotic thoughts.

"True, there's a lot of things that are out of our control. Not everything can go according to plan." Yan Yao also tried to give Xie Ruo confidence.

Xie Ruo took off a hug, then turned his gaze to the storm around him. Deep down, there was anger stored away. But it was covered by her cold face that did not change.

"I'll finish it." Xie Ruo said expressionlessly. He was just about to step away, but suddenly he coughed and felt his chest hurt so much that he fell down.

Qu Xuanzi gripped Xie Ruo swiftly. He checked his pulse, felt the blood poison suddenly activate and attacked his heart.

"I'm fine." Xie Ruo did not want to look weak. He endured the pain in his heart that was beating so hard. It felt very uncomfortable, like there were thousands of ants gnawing at his heart.

"You're not okay." Qu Xuanzi denied in a whispered manner. He knows what it feels like when blood toxins are active. He also used his power to control the blood poison in Xie Ruo's body, it managed to reduce his pain.

Xie Ruo looked at his friends, trying to convince them that he was fine. But they're not sure. Unfortunately, Xie Ruo's pleading gaze made them wither.

"Don't go anywhere, I'll find Mei Liena to take care of you." Zhong Xiaorong immediately went with Yan Yao to look for Mei Liena. They must be fast!

Xie Ruo looked at their departure until it disappeared in the darkness of the storm. He sighed, then leaned on Qu Xuanzi's shoulder, feeling limp after the excruciating pain gnawed at him.

"It's all over." Qu Xuanzi tightened his grasp. "I'll do everything."

Xie Ruo nodded. He lost consciousness, his trembling body stopped with all the fear that terrorized him nonstop. He's too tired.

...ΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩ...

The Life Goddess and Sheng Xian arrived at the location. They sighed seeing that Qu Xuanzi had already secured Xie Ruo. Previously they had called Qu Xuanzi to tell Xie Ruo's situation after seeing him become so chaotic and uncontrollable. Hence, the two of them dealt with the Demon Emperor and fled from him after Qu Xuanzi gave a safe signal.

Qu Xuanzi had already explained his plan back then. When the Life Goddess and Sheng Xian had just come, he directly entrusted Xie Ruo to them to be guarded. Xie Ruo's condition did not allow for war anymore.

"Your Majesty, if Xie Ruo finds out, he will be very angry." Sheng Xian looked at Xie Ruo wryly.

"I know," Qu Xuanzi replied. He looked at Xie Ruo in his arms, then said, "Tell him what I said just now. I'll be back, so wait for me."

The two of them could not argue anymore, only being able to sigh. It is hard to change someone's mind.

Qu Xuanzi lowered his head, giving a brief kiss. A golden beam flashed in his hand which grasped Xie Ruo tightly, before finally absorbing a faint hint of white light from Xie Ruo. He could not involve Xie Ruo too much and risk his life. Therefore, he had to do it quickly before Xie Ruo realized it.

Qu Xuanzi handed Xie Ruo over to the two of them. Sheng Xian looked at him, then sighed for the umpteenth time. The Life Goddess on the other hand looked at Qu Xuanzi elaborately.

"I didn't promise to hold it. When he wakes up, he'll know." The Goddess of Life said firmly.

Qu Xuanzi had already guessed so, that was why he was trying so quickly. It moved away, then disappeared in the golden light that flew into the sky.

The thing to do, first, wipe out the entire storm and rewind the troops. As much as possible to avoid victims, so that the balance of nature is maintained as it should be.

In this way, the Demon God will carry out its actions. That man would definitely target Xie Ruo as the possessor of pure energy. At least the Demon God could take his attention off Qu Fengxiu so that Qu Xuanzi could take full control of the situation.

In order to get rid of the storm, he had to make the Demon God unleash the control of the storm by utilizing the Demon Emperor.

Qu Xuanzi stopped flashed as soon as he felt some clones start targeting him. There were so many, all the Demon God clones were encircling him from various sides and taking out a formation.

The black fog spread towards Qu Xuanzi accompanied by various sorts of attacks from the sky like a hail of weapons. He dodged the attack swiftly before finally the golden light in his hand shot out destroying one of the clones.

Once one of the clones was destroyed, the formation automatically stopped. That golden light further spread to each clone and slashed at them all without any residue. In an instant, the clones disappeared into ashes along with the appearance of the Demon God and the Demon Emperor.

The two of them looked at Qu Xuanzi. The Demon Emperor looked expressionless, whereas the Demon God chuckled lightly while clapping, enjoying the interesting spectacle presented.

"I'm sorry about Xie Ruo's mental state." The Demon God chuckled, then patted the Demon Emperor on the shoulder next to him. "You did well."

The Demon Emperor did not say anything at all. He just looked at Qu Xuanzi, as if he was talking through his eyes. But the Demon God did not care what they planned.

"It seems my plans will change a little." The Demon God rubbed his chin looking thoughtful. "Heavenly Emperor, there's no way you're just going to be quiet, is there? If left unchecked, the blood poison could kill him. You might be able to survive, but not with Xie Ruo."

"There's no way you're offering the antidote, is there? There's no need to bring anything up, there's no point." That meant Qu Xuanzi was asking the Demon God not to be chatty because he did not care. The Demon God smiled wryly hearing that.

"I'm in a bit of a hurry, let's finish it here." The Demon God remembered Shu Xin. If not immediately obtaining mixed blood for the altar, Shu Xin would be sacrificed. He couldn't find Qu Fengxiu, could only return to target Qu Xuanzi.

The Demon God directly fought Qu Xuanzi. The spear in his hand shot out at high speed, then floated in the air and straightened towards Qu Xuanzi accompanied by a dense dark energy.

The slash of the spear was extremely fast, faster than any magic in this world. Qu Xuanzi dodged just as the spear was about to stab his heart. A red beam appeared from the other side towards him, Qu Xuanzi teleported to the other side to dodge, letting the two attacks smash into each other and explode.

The attack didn't just stop there, it didn't even wait for the explosion to finish. As soon as Qu Xuanzi appeared, another attack came. The golden light repelled it accompanied by a sword blade filled with killing aura.

A dark qilin appeared in a condensed form of dark energy. His large body was so domineering that it was accompanied by scales in the form of black fog, as well as two long whiskers on his face. His eyes were red, looking at his opponent ferociously.

It was just that, in Qu Xuanzi's eyes. The qilin was just a meaningless wild lizard. The golden dragon shadow behind him appeared, his form was larger than the heavenly dragon so it looked even more terrifying. It roared so loudly that it shook the sky, against the dark Qilin that resulted in a huge impact affecting the land area.

The battle of the two great creatures attracted a lot of attention due to their size and strength that shook the plains. No one dared to come closer. Just looking at it made them all tremble.

Light and darkness were opposite each other in the sky as if fighting for their power. As thousands of meteors fell, as well as the giant fireworks that shook the ground nonstop.

This time the battle was different than usual. Other than the two opposing halves, red magic suddenly came and suppressed the golden light. Another dragon appeared in a form filled with dark energy and left a trail as red as thick blood. He joined the battle helping the dark qilin and suppressing the fiery and cold dragon.

Roars and screeches shook the sky with thunder. When the storm disappeared, the originally dark sky now turned blood red, a sign that a great battle was taking place.

Everyone could see him from a distance while taking cover. The Goddess of Life and Sheng Xian also saw her on the hill while watching the figure of the woman who was still lying weakly on the bed they had prepared in the camp.

They were all currently gathered, both humans and gods and other races, in the same place as the evacuation site to witness the final battle that was taking place.

Without them all knowing, the figure in the tent that was lying down, was now moving her eyelids.
