Chapter 2582: Mourning The Dead (3)
Yun Yanli did not move at first. His mind was filled with regret as he contemplated what he had done. Shortly after, he closed his eyes and finally cried, staining his robes with tears. A man would not usually cry unless he was deeply saddened. Hence, his action clearly portrayed how he felt.
The man in black did not look pleased. Years of his efforts had gone to waste in the blink of an eye. He watched in disbelief as Yun Yanli took his parents’ lives without turning himself into the killing machine that he had wanted him to be.
It was impossible! He had been working on building and channeling the immense source of resentment for years. How could their grudge be purified so easily? Furthermore, the corpses were basically invulnerable to all forms of weapons or spells. Why would they die from one small stab from Yun Yanli? It did not make any sense. What was the weapon that Yun Yanli had just used? How could it be so powerful?
The man in black was still absorbed in utter astonishment that he could hardly stay calm, even though he should be focusing on his battle with Di Fuyi. Their spiritual power and Kung Fu were about equal, so it was nip and tuck all the way until the man finally made a careless move as a result of his absent-mindedness. Di Fuyi struck him in the chest and pushed him back a few steps. He almost slipped off the back of the Candle Dragon.
In an attempt to prevent itself from being hurt, the dragon quickly ascended a few feet to distance itself from Di Fuyi. The man in black did not quickly rush back into the battle with Di Fuyi. Instead, his eyes were fixed on the golden blade. It was certainly an odd weapon and did not look entirely like a blade. More accurately, it was a golden ruler with very sharp edges.
The ruler did ring a bell. Gu Xijiu once briefly showed it to him before. He was not interested in any sort of weapons back then, so he did not ask anything further about the ruler’s features. Today, it turned out to be an unpleasant surprise for the man.
