Chapter 174 Today I Will End Everything
Chapter 174 Today I Will End Everything
Nanjiang City.
Dark clouds gathered, and thunder rumbled.
Yet, beams of golden sunlight pierced through the thick, dark clouds, illuminating the city plagued by misfortune.
Some survivors crawled out of the ruins, staring blankly at the shattered city before them and the fiery red figure standing in the city center.
The entire city was silent.
The 120-meter-tall Apostle of Purgatory stood in the center of the broken street; its mere presence was enough to tower above the world and awe all around.
The members of Crimson Rose were also watching this scene.
Xu Yihan murmured as if in a dream.
"Is that really... Junior Brother Jiang?"
Zi Yin's eyes showed a hint of shock.
Ji Feiyue's beautiful eyes were deep and thoughtful.
Jiang Yuan controlled the Purgatory Apostles to gather all their power and looked at the Martial Arts Guild Bell Tower.
They gazed at their family members standing on the windowsill.
"Dad, Mom, Aunt, Uncle, Xixi."
"Feel sorry."
"I may have to leave for a while."
Hearing these unexpected words...
The Jiang family was taken aback.
"What are you talking about?"
Jiang's father had a bad feeling.
Jiang's mother couldn't help but ask, "Xiao Yuan, where are you going?"
The Apostle of Purgatory slowly raised his head and looked up at the sky.
"I'm going to... the abyss."
Mo Xixi stared blankly and said, "A deep, abyss?!"
In a dark corner, the jester sighed.
"You still made that choice after all."
……
The boy's voice echoed throughout the city.
"The culprit behind the black curse, the Lord of the Abyss known as the Yin Lord, gave me two choices."
"One option is to abandon everyone and live a life of peace and safety, and from there climb higher and higher until you reach the realm of the king."
"The other option is for me to enter the abyss, and for Him to reclaim all the curses hidden in the black curse."
Upon hearing this...
Everyone was astonished.
Bei Mingxue's pupils contracted slightly.
"Could it be...!"
Lin Qingyan's expression also changed abruptly.
"That guy wouldn't be thinking of...?"
Luo Xi was still undergoing trials when Luo Ningyan, who was guarding her side, suddenly looked up and a look of surprise appeared on her beautiful face.
Zhang Wei and everyone in the patrol department also widened their eyes.
"Captain, could it be that he's going to..."
Zhang Wei gritted his teeth, "Don't joke around, how can you make a deal with the King of the Abyss!"
Mo Xixi vaguely sensed something, and felt a tightness in her chest, as if something was blocking it. She forced a smile.
"Brother Yuan, you, you wouldn't...!"
"Stop joking, you're not a hero."
"You're only two years older than me, there's no need for you to carry the whole city on your shoulders, you..."
As Mo Xixi spoke, tears streamed down her face.
Jiang's mother's voice trembled: "Xiaoyuan, what... what are you saying? How could you believe such a scoundrel? He's definitely lying to you..."
Father Jiang roared angrily, "What are you going to the abyss for? Go to the capital and live a good life! We don't need your help!"
As he spoke, tears welled up in his eyes.
As family members, they realized something the moment Jiang Yuan spoke.
After Jiang Yuan controlled the Infernal Apostle to remain silent for two seconds, he said:
"Feel sorry."
"I'd rather you die in front of me than face a King-level lord."
"So I decided to choose the second one."
The boy's voice continued to ring out.
"This deal constitutes a contract of the highest level, which even the King of the Abyss cannot violate."
Bei Mingxue shouted, "Don't do anything foolish! There will definitely be a way to remove the curse; you don't need to make a deal with Him..."
"Where have the King-level beings been since the Black Curse broke out? What have they been doing?"
Bei Mingxue was speechless for a moment.
"The curse is hard to erase. Nanjiang City will not receive support for even a day, and enemy attacks will continue. Who dares to say what will happen in the future? Since the kings are not taking any action."
"Then I'll do it."
The boy spoke calmly, without a trace of the weight of the lives of millions of people in the city on his shoulders.
Countless survivors infected with the black curse stared blankly at him.
"It's time for this matter to come to an end."
"Let me be willful one more time."
"The last time."
"Today I will end it all."
……
Within the body of the Purgatory Apostle.
Having killed a ninth-tier lord-level Destroyer Machine God and gained a large amount of experience to successfully reach level 48, Jiang Yuan took out the strange crystal given to him by the [Yin Lord] and crushed it.
"This is not a final farewell, but a temporary separation."
Jiang Yuan said softly.
"boom!"
A huge dark vortex suddenly appeared high in the sky.
Countless black specks of light flew out from the bodies of everyone infected with the black curse in the city, spreading out in a vast expanse towards the dark vortex in the sky.
The dark spots on their faces and bodies visibly shrank and contracted.
The black curse that devoured life force and could not be eradicated has lost its curse.
It's just a slightly more difficult epidemic to deal with.
……
On Starfall Mountain, sensing the disappearance of the curse within the black curse, the Raven-Faced Doctor's expression changed drastically.
"What?!"
Before the high priest of the Abyss, a quasi-king realm believer, could react, the power bestowed upon him by the [Yin Lord] vanished, his aura plummeted, and he was instantly blasted to smithereens by a seven-colored forbidden spell.
Without the restraint of the quasi-king, Yuan Ling, one of the Ten Ministers, instantly took control of the entire situation.
While annihilating all enemies, a spatial passage to Nanjiang City was opened.
As soon as they appeared in the sky above Nanjiang City, they saw the Purgatory Apostle fly uncontrollably toward the dark vortex in the sky.
Qin Nantian was shocked.
"What on earth happened?!"
