Kings Boulevard, Marty Cafe, 15:20 p.m

Shore's broken hands were shaking, the only remaining nerves in the bones of the hand conveyed clear pain, and blood continued to drip from the lacerations, quickly staining the ground red.

The intense pain continued to deprive him of what he had left, and Glenn Brown, who was sitting in front of him, also turned into a cascading ghost, and Shore bit his lip so hard that he was biting blood, but he still couldn't stop the blurring of consciousness.

"Give up useless resistance. Glenn leaned over and said, "You've lost, you've lost badly." Give up, and maybe death will come a little quieter. ”

"I, I'm not going to give up so easily. Shore said, raising his pale face. "I still have things to accomplish, I have to recapture people's lost smiles, how can I die here?"

Glenn frowned slightly: "Do you know? Where there is light, there must be shadows, and the deeper the shadows, the brighter the brighter they become." We are your shadow, and the darker we are, the more we can bring out your light. ”

"Then why do you do that?" Shore asked, taking a breath, "if your purpose is the same as ours, then why would we, as human beings, kill each other?"

"Because you're already a threat. Glenn's voice remained calm, "I'm just a madman, and there are a lot of people in the Wild Hunt like me. But these madmen can still discern what the truth is, that's why I'm here to kill you. ”

"You're a threat, you say?" Shore struggled to move his knees and took a step forward. "Why do you say that?"

Glenn was stunned for a moment before replying, "I can't tell you." That fact is unacceptable to all of you, and even if I did, you would just think I was arguing, so don't say it. ”

"Tell me, are you still hiding it now!?" Shore roared.

"Shut up!" Glenn's face darkened. "Maybe I've told you too much, so it's better to get you on your way sooner. ”

He tugged at the index and ring fingers of his right hand, and Shorel felt an irresistible force twisting his neck, and the sharp "click" of friction between the neck bones pierced his eardrums.

"You're a good opponent, Shore Robert. "It's also a good puppet, and I appreciate your performance, but I'm running out of time, so let me break your neck and end it all early." ”

"Damn!" Shore roared unwillingly, he couldn't die in this place, how could he just die without regaining people's smiles from the demons?

"Stop!" Glenn's movements were interrupted by a loud voice, and Shore's twisting of his neck stopped for a moment.

"How is that possible?" Glenn looked at the owner of the voice, a hint of hesitation flashing in his eyes. "You can't stand up by now, no, what can you do if you do?"

Ye Xiang stood up from the chair "dawn" with the Tang knife that was used as a crutch, every step he took was so reluctant, his prostration body made his steps stagger, just walked only a few steps, as if he would fall down at any time.

"Stop me. He said, "You won't let you kill him like that, at least not while I'm alive!"

"Interesting. Glenn raised an eyebrow, "Do you want to risk your life to fight me?"

"That's what I mean!" Ye Xiang rushed forward with a broken drink, but Glenn only turned sideways slightly, and dodged the "dawn" slash.

"It's useless. Glenn said as he dodged Ye Xiang's several slashes with great ease, "You don't have the strength to fight me right now." Look at you, both the accuracy and speed of your attacks have declined to such a point that you can't beat me at all. ”

"Less over there, more talking. Ye wanted to swing his knife and try to stab Glenn into the heart, but Glenn dodged it on one side, and then knocked "Dawn" out of his hand and knocked it to the ground.

"Got it now, right?" said Glenn, stepping on the handle of the "dawn" blade. "Now that you're out of proportion to my strength, you and he have to die here. ”

"No more knives, I still have my fists!" Ye Xiang shouted and continued to attack, Glenn narrowed his eyes, firmly grasped the attacking fist with both hands, and then hit Ye Xiang in the chest with a straight kick.

The expressions on Ye Xiang's face, which had been hit hard, were almost twisted together, he clutched his chest and kept gasping, the strength he had spent so long accumulating had been used up by him in the battle just now.

But he didn't choose to lie down like that, but stood up again, the muscles of his legs were shaking, his pale face was covered with beads of sweat, and even the figure in front of him was almost impossible to see, but Ye Xiang still stood up.

"Why fight?" Glenn couldn't imagine why he was still on his feet. "Since you're still on your feet, you should run away, why do you want to stay here and fight me?"

"Because he's my friend. Ye Xiang wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth. "He's my friend, someone who can trust each other's lives, and people like you will never understand. ”

"Ye Xiang ......" Xiao Er, who was almost unconscious, followed the voice and looked at it, although the scene in front of him was so blurry, Ye Xiang's figure was so clear.

"Friend, huh?" Glenn repeated softly, "I really don't understand, I've never had friends. But I know that it's because you're bound by this boring relationship that you lose. ”

"You're wrong. Ye Xiang smiled, "It is precisely because I have such feelings that I will win." His hands slowly drooped, but the air around his body became hotter and hotter, and the layers of heat waves continued to spread around Ye Xiang, forcing Glenn back a few steps.

"What is this?" Glenn, who was repelled by the heat wave, was already sweating, "Could it be that he can use his abilities now?"

Ye Xiang raised his vertical side and put his hands together on both sides of his body violently, and then read softly: "The soul seal is liberated, the Dao method is natural, the Dao is broken, and the sixteen Dao Flame Array is bound." ”

The air around Martian Glenn burst into flames, and soon formed scorching cyan columns of fire, which tightly bound Glenn like a cage and couldn't move.

"I see. Glenn sighed and praised, "Is it the Soul Seal Dao Method? I've only heard it before, but it's rare to see it today!"

"The power of the Soul Seal and the Dao Law are inherently connected. Ye Xiang exhaled softly, "This sixteen broken path flame array restraint is one of the twenty-four broken paths, and it is also a broken path that only I can use, you can't get out of it under the shackles of the flame array." ”

"I really admire you. Glenn smiled for the first time. "You obviously didn't have the strength just now, that's why you thought of fighting me by burning your life, right?"

"Not bad. Ye Xiang replied, "In order to save my friend, I will not hesitate to burn my life." ”

"Come on, then. Glenn lifted Word Soulbind's grip on Shore, and Shore, who had long been unconscious, collapsed to the ground.

"I know. Glenn said, "A bondage break like this has to be in your current position to maintain, but if." He stretched out his five fingers, "If I keep your hands together forever, can you still cast a broken path?"

Is it coming?, Ye Xiang thought in his heart, Glenn's restraint line had been connected to his soul, and now he could feel that his hands were being pulled apart by an irresistible force, but this situation he had already expected before he cast the breaking path.

"My friend. He glanced at Shore who had collapsed to the ground, "If I die this time, don't forget to come to my grave today next year and have a drink with me!"

"What are you going to do!?" said Glenn, a panicked look on his face.

Ye Xiang roared: "The blood of the flame flowing in my blood, breaking through the gap between the souls, awakening in this world again, reigning in this world as an emperor, melting away the evil in the world." Soul Seal Awakening, Flame Emperor!"

Blue-blue flames ignited around him and quickly began to condense into human form, the scorching air melting the glass of the store, and the heat that rolled up made it almost impossible to open your eyes. When the flames finally ceased to deform, Glenn was presented with the image of an emperor wearing molten armor and holding a flaming longbow.

"Emperor Yan!?" Glenn's voice began to tremble, and it was the first time he had felt fear in so many battles. "It's actually the awakening of the soul seal, why is it never mentioned in the information I got?"

"Of course you don't know. Ye Xiang, who was wrapped in flames, spoke eloquently. "Because no one has ever seen the awakening of the soul mark, and even those who have seen it have died, so the awakening of the soul mark is different from the awakening of the holy word, and almost no one has recorded it. ”

"Even if that's the case, it doesn't matter!" Glenn swallowed and shouted at the beggar head, "You're still under my control now, I only need to move a finger, and your awakening will be useless!"

"Is that really the case?" Ye Xiang asked in a calm tone, a shallow smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.

Glenn couldn't take it anymore, and the sight just now made him almost mad when he was now calm. He tightened his fingers, but he didn't feel the presence of anything, he looked down at his hands in disbelief, and pulled again, but still didn't feel the existence of the restraint line, and Ye Xiang's movements didn't change.

"How so!?" Glenn moved his fingers again and again in vain, but Ye Xiang didn't move at all like a statue. "What did you do?" the calm personality also fell into a grumpy. "What the hell did you do to crack my awakened abilities. ”

"It's as easy as Shore cracking your first ability. Ye Xiang said unhurriedly, "My strength is to burn my soul to form a soul fire, and the binding thread you wrapped around my soul has also been burned out with the activation of Emperor Yan, and your ability is useless!"

"How come!" Glenn's hands trembled, his eyes full of unwillingness, "I actually lost, I lost to a person who was extremely weak, I am not reconciled!"

"You didn't lose to me. Ye Xiang said, "You lost to the bond of friendship between me and that guy, and you lost to the relationship that has always been ridiculed by you." So I said, you're the one who loses. ”

"I-" Glenn felt like he couldn't argue for the first time, yes, he lost, he lost to the two of them, is the power of friendship so powerful? powerful enough to surpass humans and even change a predetermined destiny.

"Emperor's Bow, now is the time to decide!" With Ye Xiang's call, Emperor Yan put his hand on the bowstring, and a blue-blue flame giant arrow appeared on the bow, Emperor Yan pulled the bow full, and pointed at Glenn Brown in front of him.

"Melt the ashes. Ye Xiang whispered, Emperor Yan let go of the bowstring, and the flaming giant arrow flew towards Glenn with the destructive power that melted everything.

"I see. Facing the flaming arrows that came straight to him, Glenn showed a relieved expression. "I didn't expect that feeling to change my fate, if there is an afterlife, maybe I will have friends who can talk to me well. ”

The roaring explosion drowned out his voice, and although Ye Xiang had controlled Emperor Yan's destructiveness to a minimum, half of the café was still wiped out in an instant. The scorching tongue of fire engulfed everything around him, and Glenn's figure was quickly engulfed in flames and completely lost.

"Have you turned into ashes?" Ye Xiang said as he looked at the sea of fire in front of him, his physical strength had finally reached its limit, and his legs fell to his knees with a "grunt". "Did it take a fifth of his life to defeat that guy?" he then glanced at Shore who was lying around, "You guy slept quite soundly, let me rest too." ”

His eyelids twitched, and he finally fell asleep, the fog around him not yet dissipated, only the light of the fire reflected with the mist, as if adding the brilliance of the end to this terrible battle.
