Chapter 747: Mom, I'm Sorry
Even with a quarter of the Chaos Emperor Lotus destroyed, when its power was fully unleashed, this sea of souls could still drown everything, leaving one breathless.
Yun Xiao stood like a lone skiff amidst a tempest.
He lifted his head to behold the lotus again, which now seemed split in twain—one half ancient and profound, seething with rage and defiance, the other sunk in despair, wailing pitifully for its mother...
"Home! I want to go home!" that half of the lotus cried.
"Silence, you useless bastard! When I return to the Land of Destiny, to protect my clan and reclaim the Eternal Imperial Throne, you can go home anytime!" the other half thundered.
"No! You're lying, you've been lying to me from the start..."
Fear, panic, cowardice, sorrow—once a man lost his fighting spirit, negative emotions engulfed him like the sea, shattering all illusions. Lu Fan curled up in a corner, his face ashen.
"Don't drag me down!" the Chaos Soul fumed, nearly exploding in anger.
"Shame you took that kind of approach with him. Even if he is a useless bastard, he's still your other half," Yun Xiao paused. "You know well why you chose a soul from another world—because he was weak, easily deceived, lost in fantasies, easy to control. And now his emotional poison has rotted your last remaining half. That is your retribution."
