Chapter 429 - Khan"s Death
Khan abandoned his 95,000 men and escaped toward the east, heading toward the Jing Province by flying in a low alt.i.tude.
Mimicked Lu Bu, Khan stopped using the system skills and used his wings to fly after he had gotten away from the G.o.d of war"s vision.
"That was close. My alternate self is too strong in this world! I"m not his match anymore!"
At this moment, Khan regretted gambling when he first obtained the cultivation manual. He should have slowly cultivated to get his virtues to 100% first before he attempted to activate the wings.
Now, he could not grow wing anymore and got stuck with four while Lu Bu could get his 5th and 6th in the future.
Saddened and depressed, Khan lost focus of his direction as he continued flying aimlessly. As he finished his battle in the late afternoon, the sky soon darkened as night arrived.
Khan was too lost in thought that he did not know where he was heading. Following his instinct, he continued flying in the middle of the night, following the starlight and the moon.
"What a beautiful moon. Well, I never thought that one day, I"ll be able to fly like this."
For the first time, Khan, aka previous life Lu Bu, had forgotten his worldly desire as he kept flying in the sky. Yet, his face was in tears.
"What did I do wrong in this life? What did I mess up? What"s the difference between this world"s Lu Bu and me?"
For hours, Khan admired the starry sky and the s.h.i.+ning moon, floating above the cloud with his four wings and howling out his pain. When the sun appeared from the horizon, Khan"s mind was clear.
He felt like he could restart over again, even without the ability to gain more wings.
"Haha, wow. I never thought that crying helps. If I say this to my old friends, they would have laughed at me."
Khan descended from the cloud as he was exhausted from the constant flying.
As he came down, he found himself in the northern region of the country.
Specifically, he was in Ye"s airs.p.a.ce, a few kilometers near Tong"s capital city.
Khan recognized the city as he used to come here before in his previous life. Unfortunately, it was rough and short.
"Ye City? Isn"t this the city where Tong lives?"
Khan"s smirk appeared for a second before it disappeared. His second thought refrained him from attacking Ye or trying to find Tong here.
His inner desire sought peace as he was influenced by the calm night under the roof of stars and the full moon. However, his past kept urging him that it was his golden chance to eliminate the threat, Tong, before he could get stronger.
He had two choices, attack Ye City to kill Tong or abandon this useless struggle and live in peace elsewhere.
Unable to decide, Khan glanced at his clan chat interface by instinct. He asked the remaining survivors about the current situation.
Ma Chao reported back that they had taken Hanzhong. However, the county was empty, so he planned to head northeast to attack Chang"An, which Khan approved that.
As for Han Sui, they were in bad shape. Zhang He stalked their Zitong, and they seemed to have sent a reinforcement request from Liu Biao. Soon, their Yi Province would be attacked from the east.
Also, Zitong was raided that night. All their granaries were burnt.
As for Liu Yang, she did not reply as usual.
In frustration, Khan spammed the chat to force Liu Yang to reply.
During the spam, Khan thought he had sensed a familiar presence from below in the middle of Ye Inner Palace.
Curious, Khan hid his aura and landed on top of Ye Palace, scanning the inner city and Tong"s government buildings.
It was still early morning, at 5.30 AM.
When Khan"s feet landed on the government hall"s roof, he made his decision. Since he decided to snoop around here, he might as well a.s.sa.s.sinate Tong to vent for his losses before he retired from the war of hegemony.
"I can"t stand Zhang Tong after all. He has to die, or I won"t be able to sleep soundly in this life. Well, I can"t defeat myself, so I don"t mind if this world"s me take over Zhang Tong"s throne."
Khan scouted for Tong"s current whereabouts with his aura sense. Since he had dueled Tong in the Battle of Hulao Gate, Khan remembered Tong"s aura.
In less than a minute, Khan found Tong within the inner palace along with a familiar presence that he had detected earlier.
Liu Yang!
"Huh!? What is she doing there!? Has she been captured!?"
Khan was delighted that he found Liu Yang again. He planned that once he got her back, he might as well take her as a wife in this life and retired from this immortal game together.
Liu Yang was smart, and she was once a G.o.ddess, which suited Lu Bu"s taste. Although he missed his former wives and daughter, being able to bang a G.o.ddess was more tempting.
He typed to the clan chat.
Khan: "Liu Yang, I"m inside the inner palace. I can a.s.sa.s.sinate Zhang Tong at any time."
Khan: "Can you distract Zhang Tong, so I can kill him?"
Khan: "If you are captured or restricted by Zhang Tong, just type anything to the clan chat, so I"ll know."
He prayed that Liu Yang would reply to him or answer with anything.
Then, his prayer had been granted.
Liu Yang: "Zhang Tong is sleeping. However, there is a four-winged demoness nearby. Sneak into my room without activating your power, or they will detect it. Disable your aura and deactivate all your power."
Khan clenched his fist.
Khan: "Okay. I"ll be heading there now! How are you anyway? Have you been captured all these times? You never texted back."
Liu Yang: "I"m busy. I can"t stop grinding. Too much fun and addicting."
Khan: "What grinding? Too much fun? Addicting?"
Liu Yang: "Ah, you don"t have to worry about that. I"m alive and kicking. Hurry and c.u.m."
Khan: "c.u.m?"
Liu Yang: "That"s a joke. Just hurry, dammit!"
Confused, Khan sneaked into Tong"s room as ordered.
Upon entering, he found the naked Liu Yang, whose body was smeared with white sticky liquid.
The scene of a s.e.m.e.n-soaked naked young G.o.ddess stunned Khan.
Before he realized what the liquid on Liu Yang"s body and the smell were, Khan heard the voice of a man and felt a sharp hand thrusting into his chest from the back.
Tong"s right hand stabbed into Khan"s body and crushed his heart.
"Well done, Yi"er. I"ll reward you after this."
Liu Yang giggled, "You"re welcome, my dear. Please give me more of your love. I need it."
Tong laughed, "Of course."
Khan was caught off guard and did not activate his defense aura in time. Still, he would not accept death that easily.
He glared at Liu Yang as he understood everything.
"This b.i.t.c.h betrayed me!"
It reminded him of the time that Diaochan coaxed him into killing Dong Zhuo in his last life. Now, someone else had plotted an a.s.sa.s.sination on him by using his trusted strategist girl.
Still, it was not the time to reminiscing about the past. His life was in danger!
Khan shouted, "TIME STOP!"
Tong sneered, "ZA WARUDO!"
Khan activated his [Time Stop] to buy some time. However, Tong could also move and activated the same skill to move in the time stop world.
The former G.o.d of war managed to pull his body from Tong"s hand, but he lost his heart and several ribcages in the process.
Khan summoned his soul and used regen to heal his body.
But Tong was also on to him.
"Thanks for coming and make it easier for us."
Tong"s body turned into scales as he teleported behind Khan"s back.
"WHAT!?"
Khan could see through Lu Bu"s movements and followed his speed, but he could not do the same to Tong.
*BOOM*
A simple backhanded strike knocked Khan through the wall, launching backward like a ragdoll.
The naked Tong hummed and disappeared again.
This time, he reappeared behind Khan, who was still flying backward from the earlier impact.
Not only Tong teleported behind Khan, but he also spread his black wings, enhancing his physical body with the demon power.
"MUDAMUDAMUDA!"
Tong laughed as he and all his souls punched Khan from all directions, crus.h.i.+ng his bones and muscles.
Khan stared at all the demon souls in disbelief.
Behind Tong"s back, there were six wings!
SIX SOULS OF SINS!
SIX-WINGED DEMON!!
Khan vomited a fountain of blood as he muttered.
"S-Since … when …"
Still chuckled, Tong gathered all forces into his hand, turning it into a blade.
"Not too long ago. Well, I have to admit. Natural dual-cultivation helps a lot. Whenever I had s.e.x, I gained a bit of enlightenment. You should have picked a demon path instead, Khan."
Khan could not even reply or react because of the shock. Tong"s hand slashed.
The neck of Khan was severed from his shoulder.
*SWOOSH*
*SWOOSH*
*SWOOSH*
Tong"s hands moved in lightning speed, cutting Khan"s real body into thousand pieces, ensuring his death.
The time stop power dispersed, and a pile of Khan"s meat dropped onto the courtyard in front of Tong"s room.
Yet, Tong stared at the pile of mincemeat, watching and waiting.
A couple minutes later, the pile of corpse reanimated into a complete body of Khan.
Li Feihong"s copied skill, [Self-Resurrection], had activated!
However …
*SWOOSH*
*SWOOSH*
*SWOOSH*
Tong chopped the regenerating body into pieces again.
Then, he stood still and watched the chopped meat.
*RUMBLE*
Khan self-resurrected once more. Before the body was completed, Tong interrupted it again.
*SWUA*
Khan"s brain was destroyed, and all his flesh was cut to a thousand parts.
The repeated commotion attracted the royal guards" attention. A thousand soldiers, including Medusa, and Friday, rushed to Tong"s side to protect him, but their worry was unnecessary.
"What happened here?"
Tong snickered, "Khan wanted to a.s.sa.s.sinate me, but w.a.n.g Yi set him up and let me ambush him. Then, you"re looking at the aftermath."
"Oh?"
Both Friday and Medusa turned to see Liu Yang, who was still covered in white sticky liquid. She shamelessly strode in the courtyard naked.
Liu Yang giggled, "I deserve some credits, right? Your majesty?"
"Haha, indeed. Can I reward her with extra nights, you two?"
Friday clicked her tongue, "Fine, but only I and Meddy can bear your sons."
Medusa shrugged, "I"m cool with it. For now, we should lead the royal guards away first."
From 5.30 AM to 6 AM, Tong kept killing Khan over and over again until the latter ran out of lifespans.
Medusa and Friday kept monitoring the number of survivors.
Soon, from [9] immortals from the netherworld, it changed to [8].
That was the end of Khan"s struggle.
.
.
Lilim collected Khan"s damaged soul and laughed.
"Well, that was your mistake, Lu Fengxian. You should have quit when you could, yet your pride led you to your death."
The soul blinked as if it was protesting Lilim"s words.
She laughed and tossed the corrupted soul into the steam of karma, sending Khan to the new netherworld that she had created.
Then, she looked at Liu Yang, who was enjoying her s.e.x life.
"What a s.l.u.t. I thought she would have been a prideful G.o.ddess candidate, but she fell … hard. Hey, Sunday, what do you think? Do you want her as your mother?"
A bright soul, which was like a miniature of a white sun, appeared behind Lilim. It released a silent cry as if it cursed at her.
Lilim laughed for a moment before she looked at Tong in her observation monitor.
"What should I do after the festival is over, I wonder?"
