Looking from a distance, the flames on the Obsidian Square were soaring into the sky, and the fierce storm was intertwined with thunder and lightning. Xu Yinian sped up his running speed. The closer he got, the more he could feel the two fiercely fighting demon forces and the huge impact.

There were waves of air, and when he was about to reach the square, Xu Yinian had to stop.

The once glorious square seemed to have suffered a catastrophe. The nearby buildings were razed to the ground by the strong collision. Countless undead souls blocked the road and blocked the Obsidian Square. The wandering undead souls smelled the presence of the living.

Breathing, they turned their heads and stared at Xu Yinian.

The undead closest to him pounced on him first, and then, the surrounding undead swarmed towards him. With these dark undead in the way, Xu Yinian couldn't see clearly in the center of the square. He was eager to confirm Yu Huai's situation.

, the ten fingers were covered with dazzling electric light——

boom!!

The loud roar of thunder pierced the night, and a large number of dead souls were burned into ashes. Yu Huai looked slightly sideways, and saw the familiar blue-purple electric light from the corner of his eye. The ghost tribe opposite chuckled, and said jokingly: "Looks like your

The helper is here. Is it that? The kid from the demon-killing family?"

He looked at the rapidly moving figure among the undead, and his voice was low and slow: "Based on your relationship with him, I have to entertain him well."

The undead spirits from all directions received the order and rushed to converge in the same direction. Xu Yinian didn't know why these undead spirits suddenly went crazy? They rushed up like crazy, some even trampled their companions under their feet, and pairs of green bone hands tried their best.

Can try to catch him. He was entangled and unable to do anything. Another thunder and lightning fell from the sky, and countless dead souls were annihilated into ashes under the strong light.

Without the obstruction of the dense group of skeletons, the road ahead became blank for a moment, and Xu Yinian could finally see the scene in the square. When he saw clearly the monster fighting with Yu Huai, Xu Yinian's whole body was filled with excitement.

He froze in place.

what happened……!?

The monster's body shape and appearance are very similar to Yu Huai's. From certain angles, the facial features of the two people are almost identical. If it weren't for the very different temperaments, people who are not familiar with them might not know it.

It would confuse them. Xu Yinian stared at the monster, noticing his dark purple eyes and unusual skeletal spirit body, and countless thoughts passed through his mind.

The ghost tribe that looks so similar to Yu Huai...

The undead spirit next to him took advantage of his daze and pounced on him. His extremely corrosive bone hand was just a hair away from grabbing Xu Yinian's shoulder——

Wildly growing tree vines carved out a narrow path in the sea of ​​undead. The tough vines firmly trapped the undead that were approaching Xu Yinian. In the next moment, the sharp blood sickle cut off the undead in half, and drove them away.

Xie Qihan came and shouted at Xu Yinian: "Are you crazy? Why are you so stupid!"

Xu Yinian came to his senses and realized that Nan Zhi and Xie Qihan had arrived, along with several patrol teams. Xie Qihan followed his line of sight and looked toward the center of the square, and couldn't help but narrow his eyes.

Compared with Xu Yinian, his reaction was much calmer, but pay attention to the skeleton spirit body suspended in mid-air? Xie Qihan still couldn't help but said: "What the hell? It's a ghost... It doesn't mean that the ghost clan is gone.

Where did this guy come from? "

Nan Zhi originally controlled the vines to trap all the nearby undead in the heaven and earth net built by the trees and vines, but the expression on her face suddenly changed when she saw the ghost in the square, and her emotions fluctuated violently.

It even made Nan Zhi forget to control her ability. The undead broke through the vine net in an instant and rushed forward one after another like hyenas that smelled the scent!

Golden demonic patterns appeared on Xie Qihan's arms, and the blood thorns rising from the ground penetrated the bodies of the undead. When the broken bones hit the ground, they made a crisp sound. Xie Qihan turned his head and frowned.

Xiang Nanzhi: "What's wrong with you?"

"..."

Nan Zhi seemed to see something incomprehensible. Xu Yinian saw such a lost look on her face for the first time. She stared at the ghost that was 70% similar to Yu Huai.

, Xu Yinian heard her murmuring: "He should be dead... He obviously fell into the River of Death, it's impossible...!"

Xie Qihan didn't understand, but Xu Yinian understood what Nan Zhi meant. The worst premonition in his heart turned out to be true, and Xu Yinian's face completely darkened. Seeing this, Xie Qihan said anxiously: "What's going on?

Do you know him?"

Nan Zhi took a deep breath and tried to calm down her mood, but her voice was extremely dry: "That's Yu Shuo, the former head of the ghost clan. He is also the boss..."

--Father.

"The last time I saw you, you were so weak that you could be killed with just one finger." Yu Shuo landed ten meters away from Yu Huai. There was a river of magma between them.

Black and red foam rolled up, completely dividing the already broken square into two parts.

When Yu Shuo changed the day and night of the free port at will, Yu Huai basically believed in his identity. In childhood, Xuan Tan smiled and described the image of a gentle and reliable father and the devil in front of him.

Two extremes, Yu Huai forced himself to suppress his unnecessary emotions and looked at him coldly.

Yu Shuo looked at Yu Huai's eyebrows that were very similar to his own, and mentioned the massacre without hesitation: "You should have died with them five years ago, but you have a very powerful talent, even more than

Your mother...this is the reason why I kept you."

Whether it was talking about the massacred tribesmen or his former wife, Yu Shuo always had a smile on his face, and there was a hint of bloodthirsty madness in his eyes. The anger in Yu Huai's heart became more and more intense.

, he originally had a trace of luck that was untimely. Before the other party admitted it personally, he did not want to truly believe that his father killed his mother, but Yu Shuo just downplayed and revealed his identity——

The second murderer he was looking for turned out to be a man whom the outside world mistakenly thought had been dead for many years and whom Xuan Tan loved until his death.

"How dare you mention her...!"

Yu Huai spoke every word, and his voice full of hatred was squeezed out from between his teeth. Yu Shuo's eyes gradually became clouded, and he sneered and said, "I saved Xuan Tan's life."

, What’s wrong with letting her come back? Do you think she was delayed for three days? Three nights of pain? No, what she went through before her death was not even one ten thousandth of what I experienced.”

After talking about it, Yu Shuo sighed softly: "Three days? Just, it's too cheap for her."

Even though he knew that the lunatic in front of him could not be treated with common sense, Yu Huai was shocked by the cruelty in his words and said angrily: "...In this case, why did you risk your life to save her in the first place? She will spend her whole life.

I live in guilt for you, do you know?!"

The intense anger made Yu Huai's fingertips tremble, and the uncontrollable demonic power overflowed from his whole body, as if he could feel his emotions on the verge of losing control. Countless black and red flames erupted from the magma river, burning all the way to Yu Shuo.

The moment his feet came into contact with Yu Shuo, the black flames suddenly exploded! The violent impact caused a huge stone pit to be sunken where Yu Shuo was.

Yu Huai's eyes glowed red, and black-red fire surged crazily into the sky. Sand and rocks were flying all around, and thick smoke was everywhere, but Yu Shuo's shadow could not be seen among the rubble.

The explosion brought billowing black smoke. Yu Shuo's figure was looming in the thick smoke, and the gloomy voice seemed to come from hell: "She feels guilty? Then do you know how I got here? What do you know...!"

"

Yu Shuo pressed down with five fingers, and the violently increased gravity caused the entire square to collapse! As if being squeezed downward by an invisible giant hand, Yu Huai felt that all the bones in his body seemed to be about to break. The drama in his chest?

The pain caused blood to overflow from the corners of his mouth. He barely managed to drive away the ghosts to resist, but the river of magma could not withstand the pressure and exploded just a few feet away from him!

A series of loud explosions of black flames were deafening, but Yu Shuo's position was not affected. He stood on a high place and watched from a high position as the entire square was reduced to rubble.

There was a pungent smell floating in the air, and Yu Huai's body was covered with bloodstains. Seeing him supporting his knees and slowly getting up from the gravel, Yu Shuo said contemptuously: "You have the nerve to preach to me? I do.

The price for saving her was that I stayed in the River of Death for thirteen full years, and my flesh and blood were corroded by the undead every day!"

Before Yu Huai could stand up, a raging storm swept across the sky and earth. The strong wind was filled with scorching fire, and the hot air waves that hit his face caused the gravel to melt rapidly. Yu Shuo used two abilities at the same time, and the heavy pressure command

Yuhuai couldn't move and could only bear the attack of the storm!

The heat wave spread rapidly along with the thick smoke and rushed to the outside of Obsidian Square. Even if they were far away from the center of the battle, everyone fighting with the undead could feel the violent impact of the fire storm.

"——Yu Huai!!" Seeing that the situation was not good, Xu Yinian was so anxious that he wanted to rush forward, but the undead spirits around him rushed towards him one after another, clinging to him and preventing him from taking a step forward.

Xie Qihan said anxiously: "That guy looks difficult to deal with, we? We have to go over and help!"

Nan Zhi gritted his teeth and said nothing. The number of undead nearby was increasing. It seemed that all the undead in Freeport had gathered in Obsidian Square. Not only were they unable to move forward, they were even gradually forced back.

.

If this continues...

Don't talk about Yu Huai, even they may not be able to support it.

"The ghost tribe has a very strong recovery power. You should be aware of this." The strong wind swept past, and Yu Shuo looked at the embarrassed Yu Huai. Half of his body was burned by the flames, and his flesh was torn open countless times.

Burnt wounds?.

"Hungry, cold, serious injuries..." Yu Shuo seemed to be remembering something, "No fatal threat to humans and most monsters can take the lives of ghosts. But this? The process is painful, very painful.

."

Many years ago, the demon world was far more chaotic than it is now. Many monsters were afraid and jealous of the abilities of the ghost clan. Although the ghost clan was powerful, their numbers were very few compared to other monster clans. Finally, these monsters united to launch an siege. In

In that melee, Yu Shuo fell into the River of Death to save Xuan Tan. At that moment, he was ready to die, but he didn't expect that what awaited him was a hell more terrifying than death.

Countless undead souls raised their heads and rushed forward like hungry wolves. Even a trace of sunlight appeared in the dark black river. The only light was the green light spot on the skeleton. All the

The green light spots all converged towards him.

There was no food, no clean water, and the temperature of the Death River was horribly cold. No matter how powerful he was, he could not always sustain himself in front of the endless stream of undead. When he was exhausted, countless undead would pounce on him to corrode his flesh and bite him.

limbs.

In the first year, he relied on his healing ability to barely breathe. He couldn't remember how many times he had been corrupted, and how many undead souls he had destroyed and resurrected.

The next year, he tried to find a way to leave, but was disappointed to find that the entire river had no source: it was a completely dead river. Once he tried to climb up, all the undead would gather to pull him down.

Pulling and pulling, he almost lost his life several times.

The third year, the fourth year...

His body was melted by the undead day after day, and then recovered day after day. The severe pain and hunger made him almost want to give up, and countless undead souls followed him greedily.

When their eyes were filled with black holes, the memories of the past became more and more vivid in his mind, and the strong desire for sunshine overflowed from the bottom of his heart - he did not want to die in such a cold and humid place, let alone become a peaceful person.

They're the same monster.

He hated the monsters who participated in the siege and wished that they would also suffer the pain he had experienced. The love he once had for Xuan Tan was exhausted in the life and death struggles again and again, and finally turned into endless regret.

"If I had died directly in that river, everything would have been over. But after struggling in the Death River for several years, I just felt that my original choice was extremely ridiculous? A noble, selfless sacrifice? In exchange for only
