Evil Emperor's Wild Consort-Chapter 1743: The End 4

She took out a pill, raised her head and swallowed it.

Unfortunately, she has consumed too many pills in a short period of time. As a result, the pill was not as effective as it had once been.

"Gu Ruoyun, you'd better just give up on your retaliation. Perhaps I might even leave you with a whole corpse."

Cang Ming stared at the struggling Gu Ruoyun and laughed scornfully. His eyes were full of disdain and he looked as if he was staring at an ant struggling to survive.

Gu Ruoyun staggered and gasped but the resolve in her eyes was unmoved. "I've said it before, I will wait for Xiao Ye to return."

Since she had made that promise, she would keep her word no matter what.

"Hmph!" Cang Ming scoffed coldly, "There are some things you can't achieve just because you want to. I won't give you the chance to survive! I'm done playing with you now, it's time to send you to the Western Paradise."

Whoosh!

After Cang Ming had spoken, he raised the longsword in his hand up high. The sword then slashed down from the sky with a force which could split the heaven and earth into two.

Gu Ruoyun sensed the powerful energy hurtling towards her and felt suffocated. However, she only stared coldly at the large sword which was slashing down from the sky as a cold light enveloped her face.

Xiao Ye hasn't returned yet so I mustn't die!

She found the strength to rise to her feet at the thought of this and grabbed the Nine Emperors to retaliate against the longsword which was attacking her from the sky.

Crash!

An earth-shattering noise rang out through the sky.

Gu Ruoyun felt her arms go numb. There was an unbearable pain in her vitals and a trickle of blood slipped from the corner of her mouth before she fell towards to ground helplessly...

"Little girl."

The color drained from Zixie's face. With a single leap, he pulled Gu Ruoyun firmly into his arms as his purple eyes shot towards the man in the sky...

"It's about time. I should look for that kid, Qianbei Ye, and make him pay. Now, I'll let you two descend to hell to accompany him."

There was a bloodthirsty look on Cang Ming's face. He then reappeared beside Zixie easily and his hand turned as sharp as a knife as he thrust it at Gu Ruoyun who was in Zixie's arms...

Boom!

At that moment, powerful energy shot out from Gu Ruoyun's body. That power caused Cang Ming to stumble several steps back as his eyes filled with surprise.

"Little girl." Zixie looked at the woman in his arms whose eyes were closed and gently lifted the corners of his lips. "Actually, the final door in the Ancient Divine Pagoda can't be unlocked whenever you want. This door will automatically absorb your spirit into it when it senses that you're in peril. However, my mission has finally ended now."

Zixie's smile carried a demonic air as his purple eyes stared unblinkingly at Gu Ruoyun, filled with deep affection.

"Ten thousand years ago, I had sensed that your feelings for this girl go beyond just friendship. I didn't think that it was actually true."

Cang Ming noticed the deep affection in Zixie's eyes and laughed contemptuously. "I really can't understand what you're thinking. You clearly like this girl but you had chosen to hand her over to Qianbei Ye in the end."

Zixie swept his gaze towards Cang Ming and replied indifferently, "To me, it's enough as long as she's happy. My only wish in this lifetime was to assist her in her growth and watch over her in her happiness..."

"Zixie, tell me this, what kind of power had her body just released?"

A gloomy light flashed in Cang Ming's eyes. Only now does he understand that Gu Ruoyun was not as straightforward as he had imagined.
