The King of Urban Mercenaries

Facing the giant wolf’s bloody maw, Zhou Ziyu was not one to sit and wait for death. At this moment, he transformed his anger into power. The True Qi within him surged skyward—had he... broken through?!

Lin Fei was surprised.

"Holy crap, he really broke through?" Little Black was also quite surprised.

"Maybe the emotions buried deep within him were too overwhelming, so this happened," Lin Fei explained.

Now, Zhou Ziyu had already become a master in the Nascent Soul Realm. Directly entering the Nascent Soul Realm, he struck while the iron was hot. With a furious roar, the Sword Qi from his long sword soared into the sky, slashing down towards the giant wolf.

The giant wolf closed its bloody mouth and dodged to the side, but because its claws hadn’t retracted in time, Zhou Ziyu, fueled by anger, severed them in one fell swoop!

Aooo!!

The giant wolf let out a miserable cry, its footing unstable, and fell straight to the ground, looking very pitiful.

But Zhou Ziyu at this moment would not pity the giant wolf; he intended to kill it!

So, Zhou Ziyu raised the death sword high, then slashed down towards the giant wolf.

What Zhou Ziyu couldn’t accept was that a soft tail suddenly struck him, flinging Zhou Ziyu into the air. He arced through the air before crashing into the surrounding trees, spitting out a mouthful of blood.

"You!"

There was no need to think—surely the Two-tailed Demon Fox had taken action.

That’s right, after the Two-tailed Demon Fox sent Zhou Ziyu flying, she ran towards him and said, "Ziyu, Ziyu, I didn’t mean to, I really didn’t mean to. Can you forgive me?"

Hearing these words, Zhou Ziyu’s eyes were filled with blood. He coldly said, "I can forgive you, but you must kill the giant wolf before me!"

Qingzi showed a look of confusion, not understanding why this was happening.

Zhou Ziyu sighed, "If you don’t kill him, I will never accept you! You might as well give up!"

At this moment, Zhou Ziyu seemed to realize he was no match for these two demon beasts, and even if he was, could he kill the giant wolf and the fox before him? The Two-tailed Demon Fox shouldn’t be so easily killed, right?

Hearing Zhou Ziyu’s words, the demon fox Qingzi seemed to be caught in a dilemma. One was the person she liked the most, the other a wolf that brought her physical pleasure and comfort—how could she choose?

Finally, the demon fox decided to try persuading Zhou Ziyu, but Zhou Ziyu’s attitude was extremely firm. In the end, the demon fox had no choice but to nod and walk towards the giant wolf.

The giant wolf stood up at this moment, but its claws were gone, still bleeding profusely. As the Two-tailed Demon Fox approached him, he was somewhat scared.

"Awooo!" The giant wolf called out to the Two-tailed Demon Fox.

The Two-tailed Demon Fox sighed, gathering a fox in her hand, then extended her snow-white fingers to gently stroke the fox before releasing it.

Lin Fei distinctly saw that as the fox ran, it grew larger and larger, eventually becoming a ferocious black fox that swallowed the giant wolf attempting to flee.

"Kill..."

The Two-tailed Demon Fox sighed, and then the fox suddenly exploded. The airwaves crashed continuously, instantly peeling off a layer of the ground beneath them. The fierce wind howled in all directions, and even though Lin Fei and others were standing on the trees, they still felt the trees shaking.

"It seems he’s really dead, but it’s a pity about this kid. Is he really going to forgive this demon fox?" Little Black asked.

"He won’t forgive her. I can see it—he won’t forgive. There’s hatred in his eyes," Lin Fei said.

He saw hatred in Zhou Ziyu’s eyes, and perhaps the demon fox felt it too. Although the demon fox was flirty, she was undoubtedly devoted in her feelings.

Therefore, at this moment, she killed the giant wolf and chose Zhou Ziyu, walking towards him.

"Ziyu, I’ve killed him. Are you satisfied now?" Qingzi asked.

Zhou Ziyu sneered and nodded. He received what he wanted, opened his arms to welcome Qingzi. Qingzi also smiled, as long as Zhou Ziyu could forgive her in the future...

"Ziyu, have you forgiven me?" Qingzi asked, supporting Zhou Ziyu, hoping he would give her a definite answer.

"That’s right."

Zhou Ziyu replied to Qingzi, making her quite happy. She smiled and hugged Zhou Ziyu tightly.

However, at this moment, Zhou Ziyu said, "Qingzi, did you say you’d spend a lifetime with me?"

"Yeah! Yes, why?" Qingzi asked happily.

"But how long is a lifetime? When does it end..." Zhou Ziyu felt utterly lost as if he had aged hundreds of years in an instant, gaining an old person’s wisdom.

"A lifetime is until we’re both old!" Qingzi responded with a smile.

"Is that so?"

"It is!"

Zhou Ziyu smiled, "But our endpoint is death, isn’t it?"

Qingzi nodded, "Don’t worry. Even if it means death, I’ll die with you. I won’t leave you alone, making you face it by yourself!"

"But you’re a demon beast, aren’t you?" Zhou Ziyu’s heart was touched a bit.

"What about demon beasts? Demon beasts are life too. If you die, I’ll die with you. It’s the rule of our Demon Fox Clan, and I’ve decided to abide by it," the Two-tailed Demon Fox Qingzi said.

A tear fell from Zhou Ziyu’s eye. He smiled, "Thank you, Qingzi. Although you disappointed me, you also ignited hope, hope to love you..."

"It’s nothing really. I just like you and like being with Ziyu!" Qingzi said very naively.

Zhou Ziyu nodded, and at this moment, he softly said, "In that case, let’s die together?"

Qingzi was stunned. Just as she was about to ask why Zhou Ziyu said that, Zhou Ziyu’s dagger had already pierced the Two-tailed Demon Fox’s body, simultaneously the long Sword Qi also pierced his own chest. It was evident he intended to commit suicide, otherwise, he wouldn’t have done this.

Qingzi watched the man before her smile at her, unable to accept that this was the outcome.

Zhou Ziyu smiled at Qingzi and said, "This way, we can accompany each other underground, and such circumstances won’t happen again. But... how can I face my father..."

As he spoke, Zhou Ziyu’s body slowly weakened, collapsing in front of Qingzi, falling to the ground. In the end, Qingzi watched her beloved Zhou Ziyu truly die...

At this moment, Qingzi didn’t know what to think. Looking at Zhou Ziyu’s body, she sighed, "Ziyu, how foolish can you be? Do you really think I would be so easily killed?"
