Chapter 314 A Dance at the End of Life
Unlike the "Young Master" executive officer of the Fools whom Xu Ning had already met.
For the young master, the "Evil Eye" was just one of the more powerful weapons among his many weapons. Unleashing the Evil Eye was like adding a new catalyst to his already powerful strength, making him faster and stronger.
For the woman, the "evil eye" is a torture device, a prison that suppresses and seals the raging fire within her that burns everything.
The Evil Eye not only suppressed the flames, but also the source of the pain that caused them—memories.
Rosalyn, having forgotten her memories, is an empty shell with no past or future; she has nothing but the title of "lady."
Xu Ning called out her real name, shattered her cage, and awakened her memories, while also igniting the flames within her.
The embers that had accumulated over the long years were released completely in this instant.
Flames flowed through the woman's hands. With a casual flick of her wrist, a chain that had been binding her suddenly broke free and, engulfed in flames, lashed out at Xu Ning's face like a fiery serpent.
Xu Ning dodged the blazing whip with a lateral dash, then turned and charged at the woman again.
“You have already lost. Without the suppression of the Evil Eye, you are destined to be burned to death by the uncontrolled flames. Rosalyn, five hundred years have passed, what is there left for you to hold onto?”
The woman's face spun as Xu Ning thrust forward, and a cold laugh escaped her lips.
"Let go? There's not much to hold onto in this absurd world, and even that little wish is being taken away by a ridiculous fate. Even so, you still want me to let go?"
As soon as these words were spoken, General Thunder, who was sitting in the main seat, slightly raised his eyes and quietly glanced at the lady in the flames.
The chains whistled loudly in mid-air. Xu Ning, who was traveling along a spiral path, suddenly twisted and reversed his position. Almost simultaneously, three intersecting, scorching whip marks appeared on the spot where he was about to pass.
This lash almost made Xu Ning break out in a cold sweat.
If this whip were to strike, the first lash would likely cripple one's shield, the second lash would break the shield, and the third lash would reach the body. The three strikes would occur almost simultaneously in an instant. If one were to be struck squarely, one would likely fall to the ground without even understanding how many lashes one had received.
When the whip lashed out again, Xu Ning's eyes flashed with purple light, and a bolt of lightning shot up from his palm along the longsword, instantly staining the entire blade of the Sword of the Peak with streaks of purple light.
The sword's edge and the whip's tip clashed in mid-air, and the fire and lightning instantly triggered a powerful explosion.
This almost caused the Blade of the Peak to slip from her hand, but the tip of the whip in the lady's hand was also knocked aside by the explosion.
Xu Ning seized the opportunity to rush straight into the center, his long sword disappearing into the Dust Concealment Gourd, his right hand forming a fist and retracting to his waist.
It is the opening gesture of "Bring in the Wine".
The woman was completely unconcerned about Xu Ning's advances.
In her eyes, Xu Ning was no different from a moth drawn to a flame. He knew that the light of the blazing flame was just a deception, and what was truly left for him was only the shadow of fire that burned everything, but he would still rush towards it without hesitation.
But aren't I the same?
"Experience the embrace of karmic fire!"
As Xu Ning approached, the flames around the woman transformed into rockets that shot out in all directions, turning the surrounding land into a sea of karmic fire.
Even with the protection of the golden shield around him, Xu Ning still felt a burning pain, but he gritted his teeth and sent his fist to the woman's lower abdomen.
"Let's drink!"
A powerful, domineering aroma of alcohol emanated from Xu Ning's hand and was directly injected into the woman's body.
The flames surrounding the woman suddenly bloomed like layers of apocalyptic red lotuses, seemingly without end.
Paimon, standing at the door, let out a scream and immediately hid behind Kong.
Fortunately, the moment Xu Ning and the lady began their fight, General Thunder summoned lightning to form a barrier, preventing the aftershocks of their battle from dissipating from the castle tower.
"Isn't Xu Ning adding fuel to the fire... no, pouring wine into the fire? That will only make the fire burn even more fiercely."
Paimon gripped the back of the shirt tightly with both of his little hands and asked with some concern.
Kong Ning looked at Xu Ning and said, "Perhaps Brother Xu wants the fire to burn even brighter. If only it could burn the enemies in front of us to ashes."
Xu Ning was indeed planning to do just that.
Even if he manages to win against a seasoned veteran based on his own strength, it will still take a long time.
The best way is for the lady to unleash her flames—flames that burn both the enemy and herself—to their maximum extent.
He burned Rosalyn's remaining life to ashes.
The woman understood Xu Ning's intention and quickly retreated.
Xu Ning, however, clung to her like a leech, advancing and retreating with her, his fist never leaving the woman's lower abdomen.
The continuous flow of alcohol into the woman's body, which is usually a good medicine that can boost spirits and even provide vitality, now seems to have become a deadly poison in her body.
"Ha, in the end, I'm going to die at the hands of a little brat like you..."
The woman seemed to have glimpsed the final chapter of her fate, and with a self-deprecating laugh, she gently spun around with Xu Ning.
The blooming red lotus flames slowly swirled around them, forming a firestorm. At the center of this firestorm, the lady and Xu Ning resembled two elegant men and women dancing gracefully, turning in circles at a leisurely pace.
"Actually, we didn't have to fight to the death. Sanbing got a Thunder God's Heart from Yaeguji and has already left Inazuma."
Xu Ning said softly to the woman.
A bitter smile bloomed on the woman's beautiful face. "Just as that guy said, I will eventually suffer the backlash? But what's the use of saying that now?"
Xu Ning paused for a moment and then asked, "I don't see that you have the Eye of God. Before you obtained the seal of the Evil Eye, how did you acquire the power of fire and become the Flame Witch?"
"Don't call me a witch! I hate that title!"
The woman gave a light rebuke and said, "Of course I don't have the eye of God. After his death, I betrayed my so-called faith, although I didn't have much respect for God before that."
"As for this flame, it is a kind of forbidden visualization technique. It involves constantly visualizing the image of a certain god and then gaining His power through enlightenment."
The woman glanced at Xu Ning and said, "That's a dangerous door. Once you open it, it's hard to close it, and you'll never be able to stop until you die."
"Alright, the dance is over, and I've reached my end too. Don't look at me like that. I don't need pity, and I don't need redemption..."
