Chapter 199 - 196: A New Look at the Last Moment
"It’s all Ye Zhen’s fault for not handing over all the Demon Soul Blood Crystals. If I had another two thousand, no, perhaps even a thousand Demon Soul Blood Crystals, I could have snatched the War Soul Blood Flag."
In a grand hall on the eighth layer of the Demon Soul Hall, where all the Demon Soul Blood Crystals had been depleted, Third Prince Zhu Kun, trapped there, was glaring angrily and fuming in frustration.
The luck of Third Prince Zhu Kun was average; after entering the Demon Soul Hall, he had managed to fight his way to the eighth layer. Just one layer away from the ninth, he ran out of Demon Soul Blood Crystals.
At this moment, being confined within this grand hall made every day feel like a year for Third Prince Zhu Kun.
The feeling of merely waiting for the outcomes was too uncomfortable, too helpless.
Even more helpless than Third Prince was Tong Wei, the chief disciple of the Inner Gate of the Lishui Sect, trapped at the Teleportation Array on the ninth layer.
Luckily for Tong Wei, after having used only ten thousand Demon Soul Blood Crystals, and still having a surplus when he reached the Teleportation Array on the ninth layer, he thought the War Soul Blood Flag was within his grasp.
However, Tong Wei did not anticipate that after trying every possible method, short of smearing his own blood for a blood sacrifice, the Teleportation Array would simply fail to activate, driving him crazy with frustration.
It was so close and within sight, yet it felt as distant as the ends of the earth.
The feeling of waiting for the War Soul Blood Flag to be taken by someone else was terribly agonizing.
