The Princess And The Lord-Chapter 1101 War’s End II

Meanwhile, the battle between Lazarus, Zhao Li Xin, and Girsha escalated as eternal flames swirled together with the dark miasma, and each force seemed to be trying to destroy the other then Girsha joined in by launching a wind blade attack towards Lazarus, unfortunately, the miasma turned into a dark metal which shattered the wind of Girsha like a blade.

The sharp metal continued to speed towards Girsha and then stabbed one of Girsha's wings, At that terrifying moment Zhao Li Xin waved her hand and the golden flames cut through the black metal before the metal sliced off Girsha's wing completely but still couldn't stop Girsha from falling face down on the ground.

Zhao Li Xin doesn't have time to check Girsha's condition though he is confident Girsha will not be killed just like that and so Lazarus continues attacking Lazarus but to no avail, cause only his whole attack cannot pierce through Lazarus's heart cause the only weapon that could kill that Demon can drive him crazy but he cannot take that risk again, not after what Lory has sacrificed to awake him.

"You know it's futile!" Lazarus's cold voice mocked him, "Even though you had magnificent power, however, to able pierce my heart you need the Crimson lightning sword but are you dare?"

"I could kill you without it!" Zhao Li Xin exerted her firepower summoning fireballs that appeared like meteors raining down on Lazarus' gigantic body.

Lazarus spun avoiding the rain of fireballs with agility when a fireball hit his head, Lazarus opened his wide jaws then devoured the whole fireball soon a dark grey smoke billowed from the side of his fangs, Lazarus yellow eyes glinted dangerously and he hissed "Ssso stubborn"

? Suddenly black smoke of miasma engulfs Zhao Li Xin's body causing him to struggle to get out of the black miasma but it was useless, Zhao Li Xin then tried to summon his immortal flame but it show little reaction it seem the miasma block his power, but even so, Zhao Li Xin didn't give up easily hence he exerted his Qi to Maximum and it worked!

Gradually the flames started to spark as soon as he released all his power, the fire inside him immediately flared up like a wildfire that instantly swallow up the black miasma, unfortunately, he used too much power to dispel the Lazarus miasma that his defense dropped significantly, it was at that moment when suddenly a sharp black metal stabbed his abdomen causing Zhao Li Xin to stagger then he coughs fresh blood out of his mouth. 𝗳𝒓𝙚e𝓌e𝚋𝙣𝚘𝐯𝙚𝙡.𝑐૦ｍ

Girsha let out a long shriek of sound waves that shattered the black metal but then Zhao Li Xin fell to the ground.

"BOY!" Girsha shouted.

Zhao Li Xin painfully raised her hand to signal Girsha that she was fine even though it wasn't entirely true. As a cultivator, he had the ability to stop his own bleeding, especially a high-level cultivator like him, but still, it wasn't an instant process like Lory's power, moreover, the wound Lazarus gave was not an ordinary wound, but he wouldn't be Zhao Li Xin if he couldn't endure the pain.

Zhao Li Xin covered his wound with his hand, he gritted his teeth while forcibly pulling himself up from the ground, regardless of the blood dripping from the corners of his lips and stomach as he refused to go down easily in front of Lazarus.

"You are so stupid!" Lazarus sneered "Why are you fighting so hard? This world will end, you can't stop it, and your friends will be followed even your beloved woman has died not even her soul could be found anymore so what is left of you?" he mocked Zhao Li Xin.

"NO!" Zhao Li Xin denied but his sudden outburst made him cough up more blood but he didn't care instead he glared at Lazarus defiantly.

"My Lory is here!" Zhao Li Xin smacked her chest, "She lived here, her memories, her love, her promises... I remember everything and no God or Demon can take that away from me, I have everything...but you...what do you have Demon?!" This time it was Zhao Li Xin who returned the mockery at Lazarus.

Zhao Li Xin didn't realize how painful her words felt, the truth is Lazarus was very jealous of him because until the end Lory's feelings for Zhao Li Xin never wavered despite everything that happened Lory continued to believe in Zhao Li Xin not once did she doubts him and perhaps that what change Zhao Li Xin decision at the last moment, sadly that never happened between him and Arthea.

"If it's death you want, so be it!" Lazarus' rage flared up, he raised both his hands in the air immediately the black miasma around him turned into a gigantic torrent of metal spikes which then rained down on Zhao Li Xin.

"Watch out!" a bullet of panic rises in Girsha's throat, disregard for his own injuries Girsha swiftly shot toward Zhao Li Xin then his huge wings immediately spread above Zhao Li Xin like a giant umbrella.

Being protected by Girsha Zhao Li Xin's face turns rigid with stress, he doesn't want to see Lory's only family got hurt because of him, not again!

"Girsha back out!"

Obviously, the bird ignored him for the same reason as Zhao Li Xin back then millions of fireflies flew across the sky like a rain of glistening light that ate away at the dark metal in the blink of an eye.

Zhao Li Xin and Girsha were stunned but Lazarus was enraged because he knew who was the culprit.

"A!" Lazarus let out a thunderous rage.

no one understood to whom Lazarus's anger was directed but a moment later the sky seemed to open up with a ray of light soon after a woman descended from the sky gracefully but what struck everyone was her long bluish hair flutter as it blew away by the wind.

"Madam Lory?" Jiang Jin Wei widens his eyes in disbelief.

"No....it's not Lory" Bei Li Yan stares and deep wrinkles form in his brows.

Zhao Li Xin fixated his gaze on the woman that have a similarity with his beloved woman, "Who is she?" Zhao Li Xin turns at Girsha.

Gilsha's round eyes widen in bewilderment then she said in an unsure tone: "Lazarus called her Thea...she probably Arthea, the Seeress"

Zhao Li Xin's forehead wrinkled into a tight knot, he turned his gaze back to the woman who didn't look like the seeress at all even though her hair and eye color could change but how could she change her age, it was clear she looked much older than the Seeress he had known before.

But among the confused people, Arthea and Lazarus came face to face for the first time in thousands of years.

"Why do you keep betraying me, Thea?" Lazarus' voice was full of accusations.

Arthea was unaffected her expression remained calm there was no hatred, anger, or love left in her purple eyes which only made Lazarus's heart ache even more.

"Well, at least you came with your true appearance, I don't see why you had to hide it in the first place?" he mocked arthea in the hope to see her reaction but it was to no avail.

Arthea sighed resignedly knowing he hadn't changed even after thousands of years, "Of course, you don't understand, you never tried anyway... but so am I..." she looks down with a self-deprecating smile.

Lazarus couldn't read Arthea's expression because she looked different than he remembered.

Arthea left Lazarus without care and flew towards Zhao Li Xin, she then pointed at the crimson Lightning sword that was lying casually on the ground.

"Not only anger, pain, vengeance are left on that sword, if you can look deeper there is much more left there because this sword was not made to kill or spread terror, instead it was created as a sign of devotion and love...if If you take a deeper look you'll realize that it's not all bad..."

"A!" Lazarus furiously released his dark aura as thousands of wyverns swooped down on Lazarus, Arthea, and Girsha.

Zhao Li Xin clicked his tongue feeling annoyed but not completely at Lazarus but because of his carelessness for gotten himself hurt, the same thing was felt by Girsha compared to Zhao Li Xin he was even more irritated because he had thousands of years of experience yet he was still careless if Lory knew she would surely laugh at him, then again he actually doesn't mind being laughed at if it means he will see her again.

Arthea's expression grew darker watching the storm of flying beasts towards them.

"So childish!" she scoffed.

Arthea raised her arms and thousands of fireflies flew then turn into a sharp blade that pierced the wyvern like a bullet and one by one fell to the ground, girsha didn't want to lose either he let oy an ear-shattering squawk summoning a giant whirlwind that wiped the wyverns.

Arthea smiled at Girsha, "Grimerous, there will be a time for you to make great sacrifices for Lorient, are you willing?"

Girsha snorted loudly, "My name is Girsha, and what's the point of asking this obvious question, you should know I will do anything for that girl?!"

Arthea chuckled while nodding "I'm counting on you then...Girsha" she wink.

Arthea then turned to Zhao Li Xin "Now, stop doubting yourself Zhao Li Xin, you should believe in yourself as much as Lory believes in you!" Arthea smiled faintly then stepped away towards Lory who was sleeping on the ground protected by the protective array as well as Ming Yue Yin and Yuan Shao.

"Arthea where are you going?" Girsha shout.

Arthea didn't look back her pace is calm and steady with a peaceful smile brimming on her face she speak in a gentle voice "Where there is death, there always going to be death"
