Chapter 2486 - When the Hum of a Sword Rings Out
The middle-aged man in the feather coat and his allies could tell that Luo Qingdi was almost finished.
For him to use the last of his strength to save that girl at a time like this would unquestionably make his situation even worse. It was to the point that if things went on like this, they wouldn’t even need to attack. Luo Qingdi would break without their intervention!
Thus, they chose to surround but not attack him. The longer this situation lasted, the greater their advantage would be.
Luo Qingdi disregarded all this. He was focused on the dying girl in his arms, his heart full of grief and fury.
He now completely understood. All of this was part of his enemies’ schemes. Xiao Xiao had been exploited, all for the sake of targeting him!
“Big Brother Luo, I...” Xiao Xiao said with great difficulty. But before she could say anymore, Luo Qingdi stopped her.
He gently tousled her hair, then said, “Xiao Xiao, haven’t you always wanted to become a grandmaster of talismans and formations? Rest assured that I’ll help you realize this dream. I’ll make you the greatest master of talismans and formations beneath the heavens!"
“Rest for a little while. Don’t think or do anything at all. When you wake up, this will all be over,” said Luo Qingdi, his voice full of heart-soothing power. Xiao Xiao quickly fell fast asleep.
The middle-aged man in the feather coat watched this entire exchange. “Your soul origin is all but depleted, yet here you are, wasting the last of your strength to save that little girl’s life. Why was that necessary?”
His voice was full of confusion and disdain.
The powerfully built spear-bearer in warrior robes said staunchly, “Your efforts are in vain! Both you and that girl shall die today!”
Luo Qingdi hefted Xiao Xiao onto his back, then slowly turned his head.
