Chapter 1949 - 1922: Nelson, Dead
"A thousand cuts, Nelson, how does the taste of death by a thousand cuts feel?"
Looking at Nelson, now reduced to a skeleton, Lu Tianxing slowly dissipated the True Energy dagger in his hand, reached into his pocket, took out a cigarette, and lit it, taking a deep drag.
"Please... please... kill... me."
Nelson uttered in an extremely weak voice.
At this moment, Nelson truly wanted to die, desperately wanted to die.
"Kill you?"
Lu Tianxing coldly looked at Nelson: "Nelson, I told you, I would make you wish you were dead. I want you to watch your life slowly slip away, watch yourself slowly die. This is the consequence of laying a hand on my woman."
"Please... I beg you, kill... me, please, kill... me."
Nelson’s tone was full of pleading, devoid of his previous arrogance.
Lu Tianxing did not end Nelson’s life, just as he said, he wanted Nelson to watch his life slowly slip away, to let Nelson die slowly in fear and pain, and to let everyone know the consequence of daring to lay a hand on Lu Tianxing’s woman.
For the first time, Nelson regretted his own power. If he were not a late-stage Mythical superpower user, but merely a Heaven-level Martial Artist, he wouldn’t have to endure so much pain and could have died quickly. But as a late-stage Mythical superpower user, his abundant vitality wouldn’t allow him to die easily. He could even feel his life slipping away bit by bit, watching himself head toward annihilation.
Seeing the pain and despair in Nelson’s eyes, Shiva felt as if an invisible sharp blade pierced his heart, and with just a small touch, his life might end immediately.
Fear grew inside Shiva, slowly spreading throughout his entire being.
But Shiva dared not make any rash moves, fearing even to cast his gaze upon Lu Tianxing. In his heart, he was afraid of Lu Tianxing.
Time ticked by, and the resolve in Nelson’s eyes slowly faded, his once violently beating heart became extremely sluggish.
After a while, Nelson stopped breathing and died--dying in the Eagle Country, at the hands of someone he deemed an ant. It’s a monumental irony.
Watching Nelson fall silent, Lu Tianxing’s expression didn’t change at all. He crushed Nelson’s head with his foot, then slightly trembled his True Qi, shaking off all the blood on his foot, and slowly turned around, fixing his gaze on Shiva next to Nelson, his tone indifferent: "Shiva, now it’s your turn. How do you plan on dying?"
Feeling Lu Tianxing’s cold gaze sweep over him, and hearing Lu Tianxing’s icy voice, Shiva’s heart skipped a beat: "Judge, what do you intend to do?"
"What do I intend to do?"
Upon hearing Shiva’s words, Lu Tianxing laughed heartily as if hearing a big joke: "Shiva, you’re asking me that question, don’t you find it laughable? You called for my death, and now you want to ask what I intend to do. Are all the Brahman people fools like you?"
Hearing Lu Tianxing’s unrestrained ridicule, Shiva’s face turned as grim as water, his eyes flickering with cold murder intent, yet he dared not make any rash moves.
With a smile, Lu Tianxing said: "Shiva, now do you realize who will emerge victorious? Do you think you can still contend with me? If you kneel and kowtow to apologize, perhaps I might mercifully spare a bloodline for the Brahman. Otherwise, it won’t be long before the Brahman vanishes from this world."
"Hmph!"
Shiva snorted coldly: "Judge, do you really think you have the upper hand? Don’t forget, the number of people you’ve killed today has offended all the powers around the world. No matter how strong you are, with your mysterious cultivation techniques and being the third young master of the Lu Family, do you think you can withstand the global forces?"
Though Shiva’s tone was imposing, his heart was pounding, unable to calm down, realizing the terrifying nature of Lu Tianxing, who not only defeated Nelson but dismembered him thousands of times—a method downright vicious.
"You think I can’t withstand them?"
Lu Tianxing looked at Shiva and said calmly: "Since I can destroy them the first time, I can destroy them the second time. I won’t mind wiping them out entirely. Shiva, if you’re only here to tell me this, you’re probably dead today."
"Judge, you think you can deal with me?"
Shiva’s voice turned sharp: "If I’m not mistaken, in your fight with Nelson just now, your True Qi must have been exhausted. You’re now just pretending to be strong. Do you think you can kill me?"
Before finishing his words, Shiva kept his gaze locked on Lu Tianxing, as if about to reveal a crucial point.
"You’re right."
Upon hearing Shiva’s words, Lu Tianxing nodded without hesitation and smiled: "You’re right, I am indeed pretending to be strong. I couldn’t even handle a middle-stage Mythical, let alone you, and might even die at his hands."
Yet, Lu Tianxing wasn’t lying, the Creation God Tripod is condensed from the Creation Source Technique and possesses unrivaled defensive power. It can refine foreign True Qi, transforming it into his own. It’s not only for defense but a conversion machine. Ever since the Creation God Tripod was destroyed, he lost the endless source of True Qi.
Although he unleashed immense combat power earlier, it was achieved by overextending himself. After killing Nelson, his power would fade rapidly, making him no different from a regular person, even entering a stage of weakness, unable to fight or utilize his inner True Qi.
"Tianxing..."
Upon hearing Lu Tianxing’s words, Angel immediately expressed concern.
Lu Tianxing turned to Angel, offering a gentle smile, then focused his gaze back on Shiva.
When Shiva heard Lu Tianxing’s words, his awareness sparked, eyeing Lu Tianxing with a look poised to act. If what Lu Tianxing said was true, perhaps he could seize him. Capturing Lu Tianxing might be his only slim chance of survival today.
