Strange Cards

Chapter 498 Don't Die!

After A compressed the Joker's power to its limit, A turned his head back and calmly looked at Shigure.

"You don't need to come over."

"I used my own consciousness as fuel and burned myself completely."

"I sacrificed my consciousness to gain power and seal away the Joker's power and consciousness."

"I'm leaving now, old friend."

Take care.

"..."

"Over the years."

"Thank you for taking me through such a wonderful part of my life."

"I'm very grateful to you."

"partner."

After saying that, A's whole body burst into flames, burning himself completely to ashes.

In the end, Shigure saw A's smile amidst the flames.

That was not the pain of death, but the smile of liberation.

Shiyu looked in the direction A had left, and after a long silence, she spoke.

"Even though you're a ghost, but..."

"It is not the fault of a virtuous person to be born in a small country."

"I think this sentence suits you very well right now."

Shi Yu remained silent for a long time, staring blankly in the direction A had left.

At that moment, a gust of wind picked up, and a whooshing sound began all around.

It seemed as if they were crying for A's departure.

Shigure slowly drew his two Mortal Blades. But when he extended the blades to their furthest point, the tips weren't pointing outwards. Instead, they were twisted and aimed at his own heart.

Joker has realized something and is frantically driving his power to try to stop Shigure.

Joker had already clearly seen the look of despair in Shigure's eyes.

He knew that after Shigure absorbed all the strange cards into his body, he wanted to use him as the vessel to kill him with the Mortal Blade and then drag all the strange cards down with him.

Destroy all the strange cards with your own death.

This is the final price.

"Humans! Calm down!"

"Let us go, and I will control all the ghosts."

"Let them live in uninhabited places and stop interfering with the world."

"We are one now. If you kill us using this method, you will die too."

"You still have that little girl, that little girl is still waiting for you to come back."

"Calm down! You must stay calm!"

"Do you really want to see that little girl suffer another heartbreak because of your death?"

Shi Yu smiled and murmured.

"Everyone sacrificed their lives to tear through the long night, pushing me to the forefront."

"I was just one hand away from tearing through the long night, and now you're telling me to stop?"

"Then what do their deaths mean? And what do all these years of scheming mean?"

"I, Shigure, am not the kind of person who is afraid of death. They are willing to sacrifice their lives for the world, and A, as a member of the Oni faction, is also willing to sacrifice their lives for the world."

"Why can't I, Shigure, do the same!"

"I'm sorry to Xiao Jiu. I don't care if she hates me, curses me, or even despises me."

"No matter what she becomes, I will always believe in her and love her."

"The human spirit is like a torch. Even though I am dead, the torch of my spirit will still be taken up and passed on."

"People always have to let go, and I choose to entrust the future to Xiao Jiu and the others."

"I believe they have inherited the future that we have created."

"But now..."

"Come to hell with me!"

Without hesitation, Shigure plunged the two Mortal Blades into his body, and blood gushed out wildly from the wounds created by the blades.

And this time...

Unfortunately, it was not launched.

……

After waiting for a while, Liu Yu's heart suddenly started pounding. Realizing something was wrong, Liu Yu looked at Qi Nannan, who was wearing a mecha, and shouted loudly.

"Little Seven!"

"Step back!"

After saying that, Liu Yu pushed the Asura power in her body with all her might for the first time, and this time even the Asura karmic fire gradually appeared on Liu Yu's hair.

The terrifying blow shattered the entire protective barrier, but Liu Yu did not stop. She used her Asura power to condense wings and flew up the mountain.

"Wait for me! Xiao Jiu!"

Qi Nannan followed after him, and when the two reached the top of the mountain, they only saw a figure with two knives piercing his chest, kneeling on the ground and slowly dissipating.

……

After using the Mortal Blade's power to kill himself, Shigure suddenly found himself slowly dissipating. He also heard Liu Yu shatter the protective barrier and looked up at the gradually crumbling barrier in the sky.

"Oh, they've arrived..."

Shigure, using his last bit of strength, slowly stood up, and at that moment, the two Mortal Blades fell to the ground with a clatter.

Having lost the power of the dragon vein, the two Mortal Blades became two rusty blades, lying on the ground as if they would break at any moment.

"It seems so."

"The once invincible natural disasters are coming to an end."

Liu Yu saw Shi Yu's body slowly dissipating. Looking at Shi Yu with her back to her, Liu Yu rushed over in a few strides and hugged Shi Yu's back.

"Little Nine..."

"Thank you all for coming to witness my final act."

"boundary!"

Shi Yu clutched her chest and gave a wry smile.

"In the end, you still call me Jie."

Looking at Shi Yu, who was about to disappear, Liu Yu forced back her tears.

"Of course."

"I feel like once I call your name, you'll be gone."

That's why I didn't call out.

"I won't call you by that name until you come back."

"Live for me."

"Okay?"

Shi Yu turned her head and looked at Liu Yu's pretty face, which was a little swollen from tears, and couldn't help but feel a little sorry for her.

Shi Yu turned around, hugged Liu Yu, and then said.

"Let's go."

"it's all over."

"tomorrow...."

There will be no more tears.

"I'm going to find everyone now."

After Shi Yu finished speaking, she gently pushed Liu Yu away and walked unsteadily into the distance.

At this moment, Liu Yu grabbed Shi Yu's sleeve and choked out.

"Don't die!"

"You must survive."

Shi Yu watched as she gradually turned into light particles and dissipated, while Liu Yu hugged her from behind again.

"Please, live."

"You must survive!"

"Is that okay?"

After she finished speaking, Liu Yu burst into tears and sobbed uncontrollably.

Shi Yu looked up at the sky, at the light particles that had separated from her body, and forcibly held back her tears.

Shi Yu knew she couldn't cry, because if she cried, Liu Yu would cry even more miserably.

After a long while, Shigure slowly spoke.

"To have you witness my final moments..."

"I am so happy."

After Shigure finished speaking, she looked up at the sky, where dawn was slowly breaking and the sun was gradually peeking out.

Shi Yu watched as her body, which had almost completely dissipated, vanished completely as light particles after she breathed her last.

And this last descendant of sinners tore open the final long night.

But he still fell before the long night.

They still didn't get to enjoy the first rays of dawn.
