The Princess And The Lord-Chapter 1098 The Hardest Goodbye

From the beginning of my life I was surrounded by death, sometimes death from my enemies, but not infrequently those closest to me but it never bothered me because the death that most clearly loomed over me was my own death, I can't even remember how many times the angel of death visits me but somehow he always hesitated to collect my soul at the last second sometimes I don't know whether I should be grateful or curse the gods for this blessing instead I wonder what have I done in the past so the gods punished me in such a way or maybe I'm just an unlucky human who fell victim to the god's whims, well that sucks.

And after everything I've been through, I finally conclude that gods are ruthless rulers who punish people indiscriminately and unfairly if that's how they wanna play I can be even more ruthless than god, I will show them that I'm going to live my short life the way I want, I will create havoc without nothing can hold me down.

I was convinced everything couldn't be more worst than already is but then she came. The princess from another world came to my world like a shooting star she was inevitable, unstoppable, and in an instant, she lit up my world with brilliant light.

I knew from that moment on she would be my heaven and hell, my salvation and my misery, my life and my death.

I knew I'm at the losing end for falling too far - loving too much, but I couldn't stop myself even though I know clearly it will be the death of me, I realized since then that I wouldn't die by poison, no... I would die of a broken heart.

I knew she will break my heart.

"Say yesss" Lazarus' eyes flashed with excitement as he stretched out his hand.

Zhao Li Xin's eyes flickered, having Lory in his dream is better than the fact the reality without her undeniably he was tempted, slowly he raised his hands soon their eyes locked but then suddenly he heard a gentle voice. ƒ𝓇e𝙚𝔀𝐞𝚋𝓃𝐨𝘷e𝙡.𝒄𝗼m

'Li Xin, our love shouldn't be a tragedy, don't let our love be tainted by hatred, malice, or cruelty, let them know at least for once that love truly will conquer all because you know I always love a happy ending'

Zhao Li Xin's eyes sagged, he always thought he didn't care about the fate of the world or what happened to all those people if Lory was not part of this world, but Zhao Li Xin knew Lory wouldn't want to see the world crash and burned.

No matter what happens in her life, Lory loves her life, she enjoys spending time with her friends, she also has an unhealthy appetite for sweets and loves festivals way too much therefore she must be unhappy to see this world destroyed, isn't that's why she tried so hard to save this world, how much suffering she had to go through, how many sacrifices she had to make just to save these people and the world so how could he makes all of Lory's efforts in vain, no! he can't betray Lory.

"No..." Zhao Li Xin's voice quivered.

"What?" Lazarus's squinted his eyes he thought he heard wrong.

Zhao Li Xin pulled her hand back while clenching her fist so tightly her knuckles turned white "I said...NO!" he repeated.

"You….." Lazarus' yellow snake eyes shone eerily soon his whole body begin to tremble violently as he endured his seething rage that would explode at any moment.

"You dare say no!" Lazarus' face was ravaged with fury, he refused to accept his failed plan at the last moment.

Zhao Li Xin swing his hand suddenly flames coiled around his arm and shot in Lazarus's direction unfortunately the dark miasma around him created a barrier to block Zhao Li Xin's flames.

"Milord!"

Bei Li Yan, Jin Hao, the Mong brothers, and the others rushed towards him after seeing Zhao Li Xin attack Lazarus simultaneously they all released their Qi to attack Lazarus as well meanwhile from above Girsha shoot sound waves at Lazarus as well.

The sudden attack stunned Lazarus forcing him to take a long leap to the sky, curious to see who dared to disturb him, he took an annoyed breath as he prepare to release his power but Girsha swoops over him with his giant claws. Lazarus dodged swiftly then Girsha launched thousand of wind blades to attack him, Enraged by Girsha's annoying attack, Lazarus couldn't hold back anymore and the vessel he was using was torn apart then he turned into a giant black snake that shoot through the sky.

"You finally show your true appearance!" Girsha spitefully said.

"Hoo, and you will sssee more, Lord of the sssky..."

Soon after that the giant white bird and the black snake engaged in a fierce battle just like the battles between giants in ancient times that were often told in old folklore.

Jin Hao and the others were relieved to see that Zhao Li Xin seemed to have woken up from his muddled thoughts still the despair was still shown clearly on his lifeless face.

Ming Yue Yin knelt in front of Zhao Li Xin who was still hugging Lory's cold body in a protective manner.

"Lo..ry" Ming Yue Yin's hands trembled, she wanted to touch Lory's face so she looked at Zhao Li Xin for permission.

Zhao Li Xin gave a faint nod to allow Ming Yue Yin to touch Lory's face.

As soon as Ming Yue Yin touched Lory's face, he was surprised at how cold her face was, in her eyes Lory was like the bright sun, warm and passionate sometimes she was like the moon, soft and gentle but never had she liked ice so cold and empty.

How could she be like this, "Oh Lory…" Ming Yue Yin's eyes welled up like knives stabbed into her heart and twisted her immediately tears rolled down her cheeks as she cried.

Yuan Shao had to endure Ming Yue Yin to stop her body from collapsing.

Mong Yi's shoulders trembled as she tried to hold back her tears which didn't really help so he kept on wiping away his tears with his sleeve, While Mong Ki lowered his head in silence while clenching his fists so tightly he must be digging into his own skin with his fingernails now.

Bei Li Yan took a quick glance at Lory's body before he turned around in fear he couldn't help to break down and cry meanwhile there was still Lazarus to take care of.

Jin Hao held Bei Li Yan's shoulder, "We will avenge ma..no, Lory!" he said with great determination.

"Yeah, let's kill that Demon or die trying!" Wu San Bo chimed in.

"Yes!" Mong Yi takes expression immediately becomes hard as anger replaces his grief.

Mong Ki didn't say a word but when he lifted his head his eyes brimmed with resolution.

"We will have a lifetime to grieve, but for now, tell me your orders, my lord!" Jiang Jin Wei stood behind Zhao Li Xin.

Jiang Jin Wei's words were like a bucket of cold water that clear his mind in instant, if he didn't want to live anymore which would be better than dying for killing that Demon by then Lory would never blame him, will she?

Zhao Li Xin kissed Lory's pale lips gently then placed her into Ming Yue Yin's arms "Take care of her, I will end this once and for all…" Zhao Li Xin clasped Lory's hand with both hands as he looked at Lory's face tenderly.

"I'll take care of Lory, and whatever it takes...kill that dam* Demon!" Ming Yue Yin's eyes flared as she spoke.

"En" Zhao Li Xin got up from the ground then she looked at Jin Hao, Bei Li Yan, Wu San Bo, Mong Ki, and Mong Yi one by one and a realization came to him, turn out at the end of the darkest day of his life this annoying subordinate…no, brothers was still by his side, out of nowhere Lory's voice suddenly appeared inside him. head.

'Despite everything I've been through, I've always thought of myself as a lucky person because I've always had people who make saying goodbye so hard, I think the same goes for you too Li Xin'

The corners of his lips curved into a faint smile, Lory could always see things he had never noticed, no matter how dark and dirty the world was she always looked at it with hope, he finally understood what Lory was thinking when she sat up all alone in a cold night waiting for the sun rises and when the warm light cast on her face a smile will spread on her face.

He doesn't understand before but he is right now, it was hope. Lory has lost everything in her life but one thing she never lost is hope because of hope she can love sincerely so she was never afraid, never waver because she has hope that tomorrow will be better than yesterday.

'When the time comes and nothing you can't do anymore, let me go Li Xin'

"Your order, my lord!" Jiang Jin Wei and the others speak in tune.

Zhao Li Xin looked up at the sky where the two giants collided and each of their strengths intersected the ground where they stand automatically shaken gravely but unfortunately, it seemed like Girsha was starting to get overwhelmed facing the black snake judging by the many bright scars that gradually appear on its body.

"Give all your strength, we will kill Lazarus at all cost!"

"Understood, my lord!"

'I let you go my love, but I still hope we will meet again…somehow - somewhere'
