I Have a Date with a Thousand-year-old Female Corpse-Chapter 1218: You Have to Pay the Price for Mixing with the Wrong Crowd

Chapter 1218: Chapter 1218: You Have to Pay the Price for Mixing with the Wrong Crowd

The war continues!

When this protracted battle persisted until the dusk of the fourteenth day, both sides, as usual, sounded the retreat.

Normally, you would be the first to rush back to your camp, because after returning, you would have Ni’er Ti Xin’s attendance.

But today, you abnormally stand holding the tusk weapon, now full of notches, looking up at the sky.

This very strange behavior of yours soon caught the attention of both enemies and allies alike.

The sky began to change.

The clear sky suddenly became overcast with clouds, which seemed to be summoned by some force and moved toward the space above your head from all directions.

Soon, those clouds formed a vortex, with thunder and lightning continuously coming from within the clouds.

Not long after, an old man in civilian clothes emerged from the human camp, leaning on an exceedingly ordinary wooden staff, and slowly walked toward you.

"Is that... the Archbishop?"

"Yes, it’s the Archbishop!"

Many common soldiers immediately kneeled before the Archbishop, and all knights around presented a knightly salute to him.

"Archbishop, where are you going?"

Lei Nuoyi followed from the crowd and walked alongside the Archbishop.

The Archbishop looked at Lei Nuoyi, smiling, and said: "To help someone."

"Help... someone?"

Lei Nuoyi naturally turned her gaze toward you in the distance.

She frowned and said, "My lord, I don’t understand. From our perspective at the moment, he is our enemy. How could you, as the Archbishop of the Human Empire, help an enemy? That would bring the Father God’s punishment!"

The Archbishop didn’t stop walking, his face still wearing a benevolent smile: "My child, the true God can distinguish right from wrong, and would not, like Mortis, stir up war for personal desires and bring all creation to ruin."

As he spoke, the Archbishop suddenly disappeared in front of Lei Nuoyi’s eyes, and in the next moment, he was standing in front of you.

He looked at you intently, and asked: "Are you ready?"

"Yes, I’m ready."

You nodded.

The Archbishop raised his wooden staff: "Then let’s begin, it’s time to end this world of chaos."

Just as the Archbishop was about to strike the ground with the wooden staff under his feet, a figure suddenly appeared about ten meters away from you.

Lei Nuoyi couldn’t help but exclaim in surprise upon recognizing the newcomer: "Father!?"

Lei Xiaochen ignored Lei Nuoyi; instead, he squinted his eyes, glaring at the Archbishop, and said with a grave tone: "I’d calculated everything, but I never expected to overlook you."

The Archbishop smiled faintly: "One can’t escape the consequences of one’s actions."

With that said, the entire plain was engulfed in a very bizarre phenomenon.

First on the ground, the earth stained red by blood from over ten days of slaughter began to emit a blood-colored glow. These glows quickly morphed into strands of red light, circling and converging around you.

Then, from the positions where the corpses were piled up behind both sides, countless dark auras also gathered.

Next, from all the living people on the battlefield, countless emotions burst forth rapidly from within them.

There were negative emotions such as sadness, pain, anger, melancholy, fear, as well as hatred; followed by positive emotions like joy, happiness, longing, and contentment. These polar opposite energies joined together and quickly formed a circular energy shield, completely enveloping you within it.

Lei Xiaochen—no, to be more precise, Li Zichen coldly stared at the Archbishop and asked, "Old Man, what exactly are you doing?"

Li Zichen had never comprehended the Path of Heavenly Power, so naturally he didn’t understand what the Archbishop and you were doing now.

At this moment, feeling the various energies converging around you, a pained expression also appeared on your face, with cold sweat sliding down your forehead ceaselessly.

Seeing your expression growing increasingly fierce, the Archbishop spoke up: "Mu Yun, from here on, it’s all up to you."

You didn’t even have the mood or opportunity to respond with a single word, as boundless agony swept over from all directions, incessantly filling every one of your nerves!

Despite this, you continued to endure with great difficulty, your fingernails already piercing into your flesh, and your body violently trembling.

Then, people noticed that your hair was turning white one strand after another, and your skin also began to show varying degrees of damage.

It was not until this moment that Li Zichen finally guessed your intentions. He immediately shouted, "Stop! Li Muyun, if you don’t stop now, I will kill all your women!"

As he spoke, Li Zichen lunged toward Lei Nuoyi!

But his body hit an invisible wall halfway through!

"Li Zichen, since you’ve already come in, don’t be so eager to leave," you said.

You turned your head to Li Zichen with a smile uglier than crying, the above words spoken through gritted teeth.

At this time, your eyes began to change, with Heaven’s Curse Seal slowly appearing within them.

"Heavenly Stamp, activate!"

The four words that sounded so mundane from your mouth thundered in Li Zichen’s ears like a clap of thunder.

Following that, your physical body crumbled as though made of fine sand, carried away by the raging wind, leaving behind only your soul.

Seeing you abandon your physical existence in this world, Li Zichen finally lowered his head and let out a soft sigh, saying, "I never thought that in the end, I would still lose."

The corners of your mouth lifted slightly as you replied, "You’ve done quite well, pushing me to this point with all your efforts. And if I hadn’t discovered your scheme, going along with the path you set, I might indeed have been truly played to death by you." freeweɓnovēl.coɱ

At that moment, the bowing Li Zichen suddenly lifted his head; his mouth parted in a crazed smile, "Did you think you’ve truly won?"

Your brows furrowed as you asked, "What do you mean!?"

"Hehehe..." Li Zichen suddenly let out a strange laugh, his expression growing more ferocious, "Li Muyun, I know I am not your equal in fortune or talent, and that’s exactly why I became more despicable, more cunning! I can tell you clearly, I have not lost!"

Although you did not understand what Li Zichen was hinting at with his mysterious words, you, now with only your soul remaining, pointed at Li Zichen: "Li Zichen, this is my final warning to you! There’s no irreconcilable hatred between us, some things can be settled by sitting down and talking it through slowly!"

"Talk? Why would I want to talk with you?" At this moment, Li Zichen seemed like a Madman, his emotions also on the verge of losing control, "Only one of us can live between you and me! Don’t you care a lot about your women? Now I will kill them one by one right in front of you!"

With those words, Li Zichen exerted a small amount of strength in his right hand, and with a "ping!" sound, the transparent wall blocking in front of him shattered, after which he rushed towards Lei Nuoyi.

Unexpectedly, Li Zichen so easily broke through the Archbishop’s defenses. At this critical moment, you, without any further hesitation, thundered, "Death Gate, activate!"
