Chapter 1143: Chapter 356: The Two Heroes of the Apocalypse

Wen Xishu rushed into the skyscraper.

This was a fully functional building.

There was a cloud-top swimming pool, high-altitude entertainment venues, places offering bath and erotic services, and of course, hotel rooms with various themed interior designs.

And there was a rooftop party flat.

Here, you could enjoy the most elite services this city had to offer.

Wen Xishu followed the Compass’s guidance, because the Scorpion Knife’s textual deduction and warning had already informed him of what was about to happen.

So he kept his nerves tightly stretched, ready to unleash his trump card.

Meanwhile, on the seventy-seventh floor of the building... Liu Jianxin faced a choice.

The gigantic floor-to-ceiling window allowed Liu Jianxin to overlook the city.

Standing from a height, he realized people were as insignificant as ants. They worked tirelessly, yet never truly appeared in the eyes of the big players.

It was as if the purpose of living was to perform one’s miserable life for those who stood on the clouds to watch.

The seventy-seventh floor of the building gave Liu Jianxin a feeling... that the world was under his feet.

Behind him, the woman, and the bodyguard beside her, were people from beyond.

Aquarius, playing with her hair that had become slightly curled after a perm, said with interest:

"Have you made your decision? To enjoy this world, or to continue, return to the start, and be betrayed by the next person?"

Liu Jianxin knew the other party was a presence much stronger than the top hero he fantasized about in the Martial Hero World.

For such a person to find him, this was a miracle in his life.

Life doesn’t offer many opportunities, if you don’t seize it, you could end up spending your entire life...

Being nothing more than an ant beneath the clouds.

"The ritual has already begun, I rarely offer people such a chance, step inside, don’t resist what’s about to devour you, embrace it, and make yourself strong."

"I’ve already made it very clear before."

Aquarius’ smile was like a mischievous little girl who found a new toy.

Liu Jianxin knew, as soon as he stepped into that giant vortex, he could become strong.

All those who bullied and betrayed him... would be stomped beneath his feet.

But he hesitated a bit.

At this moment, Aquarius said:

"You’ve experienced many betrayals, you have different expectations for this girl named Chen Juan, but human nature... is so deplorable."

"Guess, who will take the fall for this event?"

"Haha, you know the answer, don’t you? After all, every time you uphold justice, the result... is like a stray dog."

"Do you want to experience the hurt once more? Or... grab the authority I bestow upon you!"

Aquarius’ voice was like a little witch luring someone towards sin.

Liu Jianxin struggled for a while, and eventually... he stepped into the vortex.

"Being a hero... is too exhausting."

He repeated this sentence. His figure was gradually engulfed by the vortex.

But at this moment, he suddenly heard a phrase.

"Don’t let your inner Ye Jianxin die, Liu Jianxin, come back!"

The voice was somewhat blurred because Liu Jianxin’s body had already sunk into the vortex.

He turned sharply, wanting to see who shouted Ye Jianxin’s name.

How strange... was it his illusion?

Why would someone know about the character he created in his father’s image?

Ye Jianxin was the most powerful entity in the Martial Hero World constructed by Liu Jianxin, the person he most desired to become.

But he was really tired.

Liu Jianxin turned back, did not see the person, but he saw an extremely terrifying thing.

It seemed like a wave, a black wave mixed with a lot of grievances.

He suddenly realized he was standing on a narrow road.

He remembered the words spoken by the girl holding the bottle.

After entering the ritual, you’d be chased by the wave of evil, and if you desired to gain power, don’t avoid it.

Every person who enters the ritual would have a narrow path under their feet.

Some would resist being engulfed by the wave and thus sprint along the path.

But this road ultimately has an end. The stronger one’s spirit, the farther the end is.

Yet no matter how far, once the ritual begins, the eventual outcome is only one, being devoured by evil and becoming twisted into evil people by Aquarius’ authority.

Perhaps hearing the name Ye Jianxin, Liu Jianxin suddenly regretted it...

He felt resistance towards the evil rushing to engulf him.

He started to run away, sprinting along the narrow path.

...

...

"Don’t let your inner Ye Jianxin die, Liu Jianxin, come back!"

Wen Xishu was very fast, yet he still missed it by a step!

When he reached the seventy-seventh floor, he saw Liu Jianxin’s back being consumed by the strange ritual.

He could guess that it was Aquarius’ ritual of reversing good and evil.

Aquarius was also delighted beyond measure:

"Haha! Wonderful! Today is truly an exquisite day! They’ll surely be envious of me!"

Seeing Wen Xishu filled Aquarius with joy. She naturally knew the reason for Wen Xishu’s presence.

At the Zodiac meeting, she couldn’t make a move, but now she could strike directly!

"I want to turn you into a toy, bound by my side!"

She waved her hand instantly, and the two black-clad bodyguards, filled with murderous aura, appeared swiftly in front of Wen Xishu.

Their speed was astonishing, even Wen Xishu couldn’t see clearly.

But Wen Xishu wasn’t someone to be trifled with.

Though he couldn’t see it clearly, he had simulated and deduced this process countless times.
