Chapter 336: A Scholar Dies, a Confidant

To be honest, Paine can't really remember that day because of the time that has passed.

However, the only thing he remembered was that on that day, the man named 'Ji Xuanye' had stretched out his hand to him.

That was the first one that made him feel like a respected person.

The man's tone, though calm, also carried an indescribable magic.

It's like solemnly announcing to him in his ear that you are not garbage, but a valuable existence.

To this day, Paine still doesn't understand what 'Corporal Lixian' means.

However, when he came into contact with Chinese culture, he came across another sentence by chance.

Soldiers die for their confidants.

The so-called 'confidant', in the ancient sense, refers to a person who understands, appreciates, and cultivates himself.

After understanding the meaning of this word, the first thing that came to Paine's mind was Ji Xuanye!

In his opinion, Ji Xuanye ...... The man who pulled him out of the darkness was his confidant.

At that time, Paine had already made up his mind.

If one day, when Ji Xuanye needs to use him, no matter what, he will definitely do it without hesitation, even at the cost of gambling his life.

In Paine's eyes, there is nothing more important than the death of a soldier for a confidant.

It's a pity that Paine has never found a chance to serve Ji Xuanye all this time.

In front of Ji Xuanye, it seemed that there was no difficulty at all, he went all the way, from a cadre to the highest level of the Dark Council, and was also appreciated by the Dark God Lord.

Paine has always felt that Ji Xuanye is a man like a lion, he walks on the grassland, without exercising any intrigues, he can easily ascend to his throne, and give everyone the same tolerance, respect, and equality.

If he is a moth in the dark, then Ji Xuanye is a dazzling light.

It's just that by chance, Paine learned about Ji Xuanye's past experience.

That was the first time he knew that even a person as brilliant as Ji Xuanye would hide the pain of the past in his heart.

Since then, Paine has not been so anxious.

Because he knew that Ji Xuanye would be able to use himself one day.

On the day he took revenge on the Ji family.

And Paine ...... It's finally time for this day!

The final battle that led to the fall of the Dark Council, Paine did not participate, this was of course Ji Xuanye's arrangement.

Because he is still useful to Ji Xuanye.

Therefore, Paine hid on an island in advance, waiting for news from Ji Xuanye.

I don't know how long it took for Ji Xuanye to finally come to him.

Moreover, in his hand, he was also holding a vial of black demon blood.

Although Paine immediately sensed the good of the black demon blood, he still didn't expect that it would be the blood of the dark god.

After Ji Xuanye got the blood of the Dark God Lord, he didn't use all his divine power to improve his strength, but chose to keep a part of it.

Because he knew in his heart that his own strength, no matter how strong he was, would not be enough to compete with the entire Ji family and even the entire Huaxia.

In order to achieve his goals, he must find a way to get help.

And Paine is the back hand he prepared in advance.

Paine still remembered that after Ji Xuanye found him, he didn't make more politeness, but directly handed over the black demon blood in his hand, and said straight to the point: "Are you willing to die for me?" ”

His tone was as calm as ever.

Just like the time when you stretched out your hand to him.

It's just that Paine didn't hesitate this time, he smiled and took the demon blood in Ji Xuanye's hand: "Of course I do, I've been waiting for this day for a long time." ”

As a moth who has lived in darkness all his life, he is certainly willing to die in pursuit of the light he yearns for.

Even at the cost of burning yourself.

…………

After Paine agreed, Ji Xuanye explained to him the overall plan of revenge on the Ji family.

In Ji Xuanye's plan, he is an extremely important link.

Because all he has to do is to make all the strange beasts around Yanjing City fall into a state of rage, setting off an unprecedented beast tide riot!

Ji Xuanye knew quite well that the martial arts would never let himself take revenge on the Ji family.

In this case, what Ji Xuanye has to do is to make the military department have no time to take care of this matter.

With Paine's own strength alone, he naturally couldn't make all the strange beasts around Yanjing City fall into a state of riot.

It is precisely because of this that Ji Xuanye will deliver the part of the blood of the Dark God Lord that he left behind to Paine.

Under the urging of the divine blood, Paine's potential will be greatly stimulated.

Of course, this forced overdraft of potential is not without its side effects.

After this beast tide, Paine suffered the lightest price, and his strength was lost, and if he couldn't hold on, he might even die directly.

Paine didn't care, though.

In order for Ji Xuanye to be able to accomplish his purpose, he will do whatever it takes, and he is even willing to die for this man.

…………

Outside Yanjing City.

Paine, dressed in a black robe, looked insignificant in the vast night.

However, the tide of beasts behind him gathered like a vast mountain and sea.

His face was covered with eerie black lines.

These black lines, like countless wriggling maggots, frantically devoured his qi and blood, his spiritual power, and his soul...... His everything.

Paine chose a path that was completely different from Ji Xuanye's.

After Ji Xuanye took the divine blood, he chose to use the power of the divine blood to strengthen himself.

What Paine chose was to use the power of the divine blood as much as possible in a short period of time, overdrawing his own potential, in order to achieve the effect of ascending to the sky in one step.

All that Paine is suffering now is the backlash of his taking the blood of the gods.

As for how long he would be able to 'burn', even Paine himself did not know.

The only thing he knows is that this is definitely the highlight of his life.

He turned around and looked at the black beast tide in front of him, and the corners of his mouth couldn't help but hook up a sinister smile.

Paine knew very well in his heart that under the influence of his ability, the tens of thousands of strange beasts in front of him had completely become a killing tool that lost his mind.

The only thing they follow is their own killing instincts, like beasts in a cage.

Once he personally opens the door of the cage, the entire Yanjing City will be under this torrent of fierce beasts...... Shudder!!
