165: We are brothers!
“That’s not important…”
“What’s important is…”
“Long time no see.”
The blurred figure’s voice was as calm as ever.
“Long time no see, my ass! No see!”
“Not important?”
“Why did you abandon me back then?”
“At that time, I could also enter the Demon Realm, and I could also fight with you all the way to the deepest part. Why did you abandon me?!”
“Those annoying things about guarding the Dimension, couldn’t my older brother and the others just handle them?”
Heilong clenched his fists. After many years, he still remembered watching those familiar figures leave one by one on the Demon Realm battlefield.
He was very unwilling.
Clearly…
He could have fought alongside them!
He was Heilong, the most competitive Heilong. How could he be left out of such dangerous things?
“…”
The blurred figure was silent for a moment, then slowly said, “This is the choice of fate…”
“You couldn’t come.”
Heilong roared, “What kind of damn fate is that?! Huh? I only know that we fought side by side in the Martial Forest, emerging together from mountains of blades and seas of blood!”
“Don’t forget…”
He suddenly gritted his teeth, his voice trembling slightly, “We are also brothers.”
They.
Were brothers!
Brothers who fought side by side through one desperate battle after another!
At this moment.
He was not the Devil King Heilong, but the passionate youth he once was.
They met in the Martial Forest, initially not seeing eye to eye, but with each battle, that guy became more dazzling, his Combat Power Index terrifyingly strong.
Of course…
Most importantly.
In that mountain of corpses and sea of blood, he was the one who pulled him out, and when he was on the verge of death, he exerted all his strength to carry him and the others out of desperate situations.
He had also shielded him from fatal dangers and had stood firmly behind him in desperate situations and countless impossible battles.
They had struggled.
They had fought.
They had emerged from mountains of corpses and seas of blood.
They had fought side by side in unbeatable battles.
They had also followed him into the Demon Realm.
But when they finally delved deep into the Demon Realm, he left him and his companions behind, and from then on, there was no news of him.
A celestial fire descended from the sky, destroying the Wu Lin Alliance, destroying the Wu Lin Alliance they had built. In the unseen, everything related to him seemed to be constantly disappearing.
As if in this world.
This person had never existed, only in legends.
At that time, he…
Already felt something was wrong.
But at that time, he…
Couldn’t see it at all. He realized that some things were not visible or discoverable with his current Combat Power Index.
He wanted to become stronger.
He wanted to become…
Unrivaled in the world!
Like him.
Only by traveling alone could he touch that distant truth.
“You left all of us in the Gold Dimension, you bastard.”
“Do you think we would be deserters?”
“Did you forget…”
“That the word ‘flee’ is not in my, Heilong’s, dictionary?”
Heilong stared intently at the blurred figure in front of him, speaking one word at a time. He clenched his fists, his heart filled with anger and unwillingness, but more than that…
What it was, he didn’t know, but he knew he was very happy now—no, he wasn’t happy, happy my ass! These bastards had abandoned them and told them nothing!
What angered him most was that after these idiots left, there was no news, no information at all, as if they had suddenly disappeared. Why should he have to search for their whereabouts?!
“When I become the strongest in the world, I’ll still be able to enter the depths of the Demon Realm to find you all!”
“By then, even if you don’t take me, I’ll still get in!”
Heilong said coldly again.
But as soon as he finished speaking.
He suddenly felt something was amiss.
It seemed some things…
He hadn’t remembered.
What was it?
He thought carefully.
But found he couldn’t recall, yet every time he thought about it, he felt a pang of heartache that made him very uncomfortable, causing him to instinctively avoid it, not wanting to think.
“…”
The blurred figure stood silently in the vast white space. Hearing Heilong’s words, he seemed to smile with relief, but then gently said:
“But your path…”
“Was wrong.”
Heilong snorted, “My path is my own to decide. Anyway, by then, I will take them to the depths of the Demon Realm to find you all.”
The blurred figure suddenly asked, “Then, what about them?”
This question appeared.
Immediately made Heilong slightly stunned.
His head.
Suddenly began to ache intensely.
Some memories, like tearing apart, flooded into his mind, making him grit his teeth. Especially as the demonic energy on his body gradually dissipated, those memories became more and more numerous, more and more profound!
“Ah—”
He roared in pain.
“What…”
“What happened?”
“What happened?!”
He roared frantically, his face contorted. Those memories suddenly surged out, causing him immense pain!
What…
What happened?
He suddenly looked up. Ahead, rain poured down, wind howled, and the sky and earth were dim.
He didn’t know when.
He stood silently in the rain, clad in a black robe, exuding a cold aura, with a ghostly green light emanating from his palms.
Ahead.
Stood Rain Dragon, covered in blood.
Yes.
It was Rain Dragon.
Why was he covered in blood?
Who injured him?!
Heilong felt extremely angry at this moment, wanting to settle scores with that person!
Bang!
Suddenly.
He saw himself strike Rain Dragon with a palm, and Rain Dragon was hit in the face by that energy. His body slowly fell, collapsing into the pouring rain, spitting out blood continuously, staining the rainwater on the ground.
“…”
Heilong stood silently in place.
A suffocating feeling.
Washed over him.
Was it…
Was it him?
Was it himself?
“No…”
“No…”
“No!!!”
Heilong’s eyes were bloodshot, and he roared repeatedly, unable to believe that he had done this!
He desperately moved forward.
He saw.
Rain Dragon lying in a pool of blood, his entire body stained. The heavy rain continued to fall, and he seemed to see Heilong in front of him, but his expression at this moment was not anger, not resentment, but deep sadness:
“It’s okay…”
“Heilong.”
“It’s okay…”
“I know that wasn’t you…”
“That wasn’t…”
“You…”
His voice was intermittent.
“…”
Heilong stood still, his expression stunned.
Not me?
Why not me?
Who was it then?
What exactly happened?
He looked at Rain Dragon in front of him, and a memory suddenly flashed in his mind: Rain Dragon back then was so young and refined, with a gentle personality, he was everyone’s favorite friend. But the Rain Dragon in front of him was completely different from the spirited, gentle youth in his memory.
His face was covered in stubble, his hair long and messy, and his eyes were filled with such sadness, such helplessness.
He wanted to step forward, grasp Rain Dragon’s hand, and take him away, but when he came to his senses, he found himself standing in the pouring rain, his face cold and emotionless. Seeing Rain Dragon on the verge of death, he, in his black robe, turned and walked into the rainy night, slowly disappearing, leaving only Rain Dragon’s last breath awaiting death in the torrential rain.
That’s right.
Heilong killed Rain Dragon.
That memory in his mind suddenly surged like a storm.
