After breaking up, I picked up a beautiful vampire girl

"Since the Great Emperor Dongyue has agreed, I should not stop him, but I still want to say a few more words."

King Yama turned around and looked at Li Muhan and Xia Yue.

"Please speak." Li Muhan said.

"What you just said is that you are not born, nor are you raised by nature. You have not been tainted by the world in this life, but you only feel malice. This king dare not agree with you, Li Muhan. This king has seen your whole life and knows that you have a great integrity and noble character. You have been surrounded by malice in this life, but you must not ignore those who love you deeply."

"I hope that no matter when and where you are, you will cherish those who love you. They may be your relatives and friends, your teachers, or even strangers who have passed through your life but left a deep mark. Their love is an indispensable force on your way forward."

The Ox-Headed and Horse-Faced Guards whispered to each other: "The Master is talking too much today."

"Your Excellency cherishes talents and loves gentlemen even more, especially people like this whose hearts are as clear as a mirror. This is the kind of person you have longed to meet in your life."

King Yama raised his big hand and pressed it hard on the shoulders of Li Muhan and Xia Yue.

"It is indeed strange for me to say this, but I still hope that you can support each other and help each other, and not be swayed by the words of others. It doesn't matter whether your character is destined to be a person of this world or not."

Li Muhan and Xia Yue looked at each other.

"Can't understand."

"Just nod your head."

Then the two of them nodded vigorously.

"Okay! Ox-Headed and Horse-Faced, Black and White Impermanence! Make way for us!"

bang-

The sound of gongs and drums shook the earth, like thunder, and resounded through the sky.

The Black and White Impermanence waved their soul-calling banners with such force that the water of the River Styx surged, automatically forming a path that pointed directly to the deep and boundless dark abyss.

The Ox-Headed and Horse-Faced Monsters roared in unison, shaking the universe. Yellow and white papers flew all over the sky like flowers scattered by fairies. Along with this mighty sound, a golden light began to flicker at the end of the darkness, like the first light of dawn.

Afterwards, Li Muhan and Xia Yue witnessed a temple slowly emerging at the end of the River Styx.

Although this temple is not luxurious, it has a solemn and sacred atmosphere. Although its shape is not ostentatious, it contains the spiritual energy of heaven and earth, which makes people feel awe.

"That's the temple of Emperor Fengdu."

General Zeng walked up to Li Muhan, looked at the temple from afar and said, "From ancient times to now, no one has been able to bypass the Ten Palaces and face the Great Emperor directly. Boy, this road is not trivial. Without the protection of the Ten Palaces, you will face the surging resentful spirits like a tide. But don't worry, I will accompany you on this journey together."

King Yama clasped his fists and bowed, his voice as loud as a bell, and said to General Zeng: "General Zeng, let's set off."

The black-clothed ghost general raised his hand, and a long spear like a dragon appeared in his hand, emitting cold light.

He took the lead, walking in the front, with great momentum and awe-inspiring power.

When the wronged souls tried to approach the road, the spears hit the ground hard, making a deafening noise.

General Zeng shouted angrily:

"Back off!"

The sound was like thunder, shaking the air around. The wronged souls were frightened by the sound and retreated away, not daring to approach.

General Zeng’s majesty is as unshakable as a mountain and as unstoppable as a storm.

At this time, the wailing of thousands of ghosts was heard everywhere, shrill and tragic.

They wailed because of the injustices they suffered during their lifetime or the unwillingness to accept death.

Some are like weeping and complaining, some are like angry and roaring, interweaving into a sad and beautiful song of the underworld.

However, in this tragic song, General Zeng's spear was like a magic needle that stabilizes the sea, as steady as Mount Tai, opening up a path to the temple for Li Muhan and Xia Yue.

They followed General Zeng, step by step towards the solemn and sacred temple, towards the unknown fate.

But as they walked along the road, the rage of thousands of ghosts could no longer be completely suppressed. They came one after another, breaking through General Zeng's aura, and pounced on Li Muhan and Xia Yue like crazy.

"Get behind me!" Li Muhan protected Xia Yue behind him.

The two of them rode their swords to fight against thousands of ghosts.

However, the ghost was so powerful that it was difficult to repel it.

Just as the two were about to be drowned by the tide of ghosts, a black light struck down like thunder, and this single blow reduced all the ghosts to ashes.

The man with disheveled hair and bare upper body stood in front of the two men.

"You can only die in my hands, monster."

Li Chengtian raised his head slightly, and the madness in his eyes was even worse than before.

"Evil villain!" General Zeng raised his gun and roared, then started fighting with Li Chengtian.

However, the fate of the Tan Lang star is to kill and destroy, and the heavy power of resentment makes him unstoppable after obtaining the right eye of the Azure Dragon. Even if the ghost general used all his strength, he could not repel him, but was defeated in the fierce battle.

"General Zeng, he came to me to ask me to protect Xia Yue."

Before Xia Yue could object, General Zeng had already thrown his cloak to protect Xia Yue behind him, and then quickly ran towards the temple.

"Boy! Don't die!" General Zeng yelled.

"Don't worry." Li Muhan held the female sword in his hand, looked at the man he once regarded as his father, and whispered: "My end is not here."

"Two swords, one sword, two swords, one sword."

Li Chengtian's knife dragged on the ground, and he muttered crazy words, approaching Li Muhan step by step.

"You cut off your own arm. Stupid, stupid. Do you think your sacrifice can protect her? No, you can't! If you abandon her! You will never be able to protect her!! Hahaha, you can't protect anyone!"

"I know, Li Chengtian, you may regret leaving that year. I'm sorry that your leaving didn't change anything, but I don't intend to make any sacrifices here."

The female sword trembled slightly, and the black long knife also rubbed against the ground, creating sparks.

"I'm going to kill you, this thing that shouldn't exist!!"

"Existence is reasonable! Whether I exist or not is none of your business!"

boom--

The long sword and the long knife collided, and the huge difference in power almost tore Li Muhan's body apart.

He held the sword in both hands, trying to forcibly remove the force, but found that the black sword seemed to have a huge suction force that made it impossible for him to escape.

"Don't even think about escaping again! Coward!!"

"You are a coward!!! You left everything behind!! You abandoned everything!!"

"You can't do anything!! You despicable monster!!"

boom--

The power of the Azure Dragon suddenly appeared, and Li Muhan was hit by this force and flew backwards. Before the group of evil spirits dragged him into the abyss, Li Muhan adjusted his body in mid-air and slashed with a sword in his backhand to drive away the evil spirits.

But before he could stand firmly, the power of Tan Lang and Qing Long descended again.

Li Muhan raised his hand to block but was suppressed by the huge force again.

"Without the Pandemonium I gave you, you are nothing!!"

"Then thank you fucking much!" Li Muhan gritted his teeth and forced the long sword back.

Li Chengtian turned around and kicked Li Muhan in the abdomen, kicking him off the road.

The dark and cold water of the Styx wrapped around Li Muhan's body. Countless hands pulled at his body, trying to drag him into deeper darkness.

A big hand pinched Li Muhan's cheek tightly, stopping his struggle.

"Don't you like looking at my memories? Don't you want to see what happened to me? Don't you want to know what kind of monster you are?!"

Li Chengtian’s crazy face was right in front of Li Muhan, and he pressed Li Muhan into the dark abyss.

"I'll let you see it. I'll let you see it all. Hahahaha!! I'll let you know!! What kind of thing you are!! Hahahahaha!!!"

After a burst of crazy laughter, Li Muhan gradually lost consciousness, his vision slowly became blurred, and his body became heavier and heavier.

When he opened his eyes again, he found himself lying in a strange room.

This room has no windows and is very monotonous, even giving people a feeling of depression.

dong dong dong-

There was a hurried knock on the door. Li Muhan wanted to open the door, but found that his hand could not touch the door handle.

There was a rustling sound on the bed behind him.

Li Muchan looked back and saw the young Li Chengtian slowly getting up from the bed. He couldn't see Li Muchan, but just reached out to open the door.

"Look at the time!? Why are you still sleeping!? The professor said yesterday that there will be an important experiment today! You are a very important experimental subject! Hurry to the lab!"

The visitor was a bald foreigner who yelled at Li Chengtian in his not-so-fluent Chinese, then slammed the door and left.

Li Chengtian slowly put on his coat and left the room.

laboratory......?

Li Muhan was stunned. After following Li Chengtian out of the room, he discovered that this was actually a large testing ground somewhat similar to Prometheus.

The entire test site is a prototype structure, with the outer ring as the living area, the inner ring as the supporting test area, and the core experimental area at the center.

No one who came and went looked at Li Chengtian twice.

At this moment, Li Chengtian's hair was disheveled and his beard was untidy, completely losing the heroic feeling he had before.

He followed the other researchers step by step towards the core area.

This was his second year in Tartarus.

At the beginning, he would apply in the hope of being able to connect with the outside world.

But the answer he got every time was the same: he no longer belonged to the outside world, and if he wanted to protect the people important to him, he should stay here.

In exchange, the staff would periodically give him recent photos of those he cared about.

Lin Ze’s photos have covered the walls of Li Chengtian’s room.

He saw the girl go from being depressed to slowly recovering, and from needing care from others to taking care of others, all in just one year.

Maybe my own departure.

It really won't affect anything...
