Chapter 39: The Price of Choice
"Dead? you think too much, for us, a living you is obviously more valuable. ”
Dou Yao would not believe that Liu Dao would really be a person who woke up and was bent on death.
If he really had the courage to die.
Back then, he had already died along with the tainted half-demon cultivators who refused to cooperate with the demons.
Now that he is begging for death, it is more like paralysis and relaxation of their vigilance.
Although Liu Daozhen is not his opponent.
It's hard to guarantee that he has some weird means of escaping, after all, everyone is an old fox who has practiced for an unknown number of years, and when he encounters a dangerous and desperate situation, who doesn't have a little hole card to save his life.
"Liu Daozhen, I'm still the same sentence, just tie your hands and arrest it, don't play any tricks with me, since I appear here in person today, then I have absolutely the certainty that you can't escape, if you don't believe it, you can try. ”
Facing Dou Yao, who was full of strong confidence between his words.
Liu Daozhen suddenly fell into a brief silence.
And a self-deprecating smile suddenly appeared on his calm face.
"Looks like you're not giving me a chance at all. ”
As soon as the words fell.
The demonic aura that he had gathered all over his body was exuded again, lingering under the rich demonic aura.
Liu Daozhen's originally fair skin has turned dark blue, and a sharp long horn protrudes from the center of his eyebrows.
The image of a young man has gradually turned into a monster with green seedlings and fangs.
But his overall strength has suddenly risen by a large margin.
If it was the previous Liu Daozhen.
Dou Yao may spend six or seven points of strength to easily subdue the opponent.
As for now.
I'm afraid he will have to use all his strength to suppress the other party.
"Demonization...... Liu Daozhen, can you still be called a human being now? I'm afraid no one will believe you when you say it. ”
Dou Yao couldn't help but shake his head when he saw this.
"From the moment I became a half-demon, I am no longer human, even if I want to be a human, but will you give me the opportunity to be a human?"
Liu Daozhen, who had completed the demonization, sneered with a hideous face.
"If you are not of my race, your heart will be different, and I was also a human before I became a half-demon, so I know very well in my heart that it is impossible for the human side to accept us as a half-demon alien. ”
"This is the reason why you turned to the demons and killed your own kind?"
Dou Yao sneered.
"No matter what you say, it can't change the fact that you are greedy for life and afraid of death. ”
"I guess what's wrong with being alive!"
Perhaps it is the lack of rationality caused by demonization.
So much so that Liu Daozhen's emotions suddenly became excited and out of control after hearing this.
"In the Battle of Chihai, I also fought bloodily on the front line to resist the invasion of demons, for which I don't know how many injuries I have suffered and how much blood I have shed! I even watched my dearest brothers and sisters die in front of my eyes, before becoming a captive of demons, do you know how many demons I killed with the mentality of dying together?"
"Do you think I want to be a half-demon? Do you think I want to take refuge in a demon? But where are you when we are most helpless? No one! No one! No one comes to save us! Have you ever experienced that despair and pain?"
“...... Does it make sense to talk about it now?"
Dou Yao didn't interrupt Liu Daozhen's almost hysterical roar.
Until he finished.
He shrugged his shoulders in regret.
"You may indeed be worthy of being a human monk, but unfortunately, the once respected you are long dead, and now you are just a demon in human skin. ”
When a person makes a mistake, he will more or less find a reason to comfort himself.
It's not me who is wrong, it's someone else who is wrong, or the world.
At least it will make you feel better.
There is no problem for Liu Daozhen to want to live,
After all, everyone has the right to choose to live.
But since he chose to live by taking refuge in the demons, then he must pay the price for his choice, instead of trying to explain and excuse his choice in every possible way.
Dou Yao has always liked people who are straightforward.
If Liu Daozhen had admitted it from the beginning, he had turned to the demons in order to live.
In this way, Dou Yao would look up at the other party.
At least it's enough to be frank like a man.
"You forced me!"
Liu Daozhen roared as if he was going crazy.
In an instant, he turned into a streamer of light and shot into the distance.
"If you want to escape, dream. ”
Dou Yao stood motionless, looking at Liu Daozhen who had fled.
He just made an understatement of a long sword.
The sword hovers in midair.
In an instant, countless sword rays were differentiated, shooting towards Liu Daozhen in the distance.
Although there is a lack of rationality, it does not mean that Liu Daozhen has no brains.
Head to head.
He knew that he couldn't be Dou Yao's opponent.
Even if he fights with death, I'm afraid he won't be able to inflict a heavy blow on Dou Yao.
And if you desperately escape, you may still be able to find a glimmer of life.
It's a pity that imagination is beautiful, but reality is cruel.
Moment.
A terrible scream reverberated in this heaven and earth.
"Thank you for your hard work. ”
At this time.
Dou Yao turned around and nodded to Li Huan and Nian Fan, who were ignoring on the side.
"Before this space collapses, leave as soon as possible with that injured friend. ”
"Yes!"
Li Huan looked at Dou Yao with a complicated expression, and left without saying a word.
As the deputy director of the Supervision Department of the Demon Suppression Division.
He naturally knew Dou Yao's identity.
For his appearance.
Li Huan was very surprised like Liu Daozhen, and it was only after silently listening to the exchange between Dou Yao and Liu Daozhen that he understood all the causes and consequences.
It turns out -
He and Nian Fan are bait.
Bait to lure demons.
Although he still had a lot of questions in his mind, he didn't ask them on the spot.
After all, he still knows what to prioritize.
When he went to see Xia Mingyuan afterwards, he believed that Xia Mingyuan would give him an explanation.
Nian Fan's injury is not serious, but it is not light.
Don't look at Nian Fan's miserable injury, but in fact, he didn't hurt the foundation, and he was able to bounce around again after recuperating for a while.
"Master is not dead?!"
When Nian Fan woke up.
Looking at the familiar beams and roofs in front of you.
He suddenly muttered subconsciously.
"Do you want to die?"
The next moment.
Li Huan's indifferent voice sounded in his ears.
"If you can live, why die? What's more, the master is still in his prime, and he hasn't lived enough!"
When Nian Fan got up, he didn't forget to habitually go back.
"Shhh......h By the way, what's going on? Why are we in the inn?"
"Someone came to our rescue at a critical moment. ”
Li Huan said succinctly.
"Who?"
"Who else can there be, it is naturally our Xia Dasi Leader. ”
