The End Times as a Song

Chapter 36 Real Chapter

"Lord Xiangyue, I, you...I...?"

Huang Wushang looked down at his abdomen, where bright red blood flowed. He then looked up at Xiangyue, his pupils dilated, his eyes filled with disbelief, his face contorted in terror, his eyes twitching uncontrollably. Despite the excruciating pain, Huang Wushang managed to question Xiangyue.

"Hehe, what are you talking about...?"

Xiang Yue's lips curled up, she gave a cold snort, and with a slight raised eyebrow, she said something mocking.

Bright red blood flowed from Huang Wushang's abdomen, flowing towards Xiang Yue's sword and submerging it.

Xiangyue swiftly pulled out the sword that had been plunged into Huangwushang's abdomen, twisted her slender neck, loosened her delicate shoulders, and quickly conjured a silk handkerchief to wipe the blood from the sword. With a cold expression, she replied to Huangwushang's words.

"Huang Wushang, you still think you can escape? Hehehe...!"

"Lord Xiangyue, didn't you say you had a new mission for me? Why did you suddenly attack me like this halfway through your explanation..."

Huang Wushang quickly covered his wound, trying to stop the bleeding.

"You believed me when I said there was a new mission... Humph!"

Xiangyue didn't even glance at it, and continued wiping the sword in her hand.

"Of course I believe what Lord Xiangyue says...!"

"Should Huang Wu say this person is clever or stupid...? Don't you understand what's going on yet?"

"What do I need to understand...?"

"Stop pretending you don't know what's going on. You only have yourself to blame. You were quite clever just now, knowing to be wary of me. How come you're so confused now? Well, I'll tell you the truth. To lower your guard, I lied and said that my master had a new mission for you. In reality, I was just carrying out the mission my master assigned me. I didn't expect you to actually believe me..."

"Please don't kill me, please don't kill me, Lord Xiangyue..."

Huang Wu Shang was terrified upon hearing this, sweating profusely and panting heavily as he begged for mercy.

"If I don't kill you, how can I explain myself...? Kid, I'm not trying to be mean... but when you had the chance to do something important, you didn't take it seriously...? Now that you're about to die, you're begging for mercy, isn't that a bit too late...?"

"I have completed the task assigned by the young master. I have completed it. If you don't believe me, look, the young master of the rat clan has already given his seal."

Huang Wushang hurriedly searched his hands and feet, finally finding the young master's seal he had just acquired. He showed it to Xiang Yue in his palm to prove that he had diligently completed his mission. Xiang Yue stopped wiping her sword and glanced up at Huang Wushang.

"Young Master's Seal...that Huang Yunlan...? Huang Yunlan isn't dead, what use is the Young Master's Seal to you? Shouldn't someone like you, who only does half the job, die...?"

"Lord Xiangyue... I had my reasons, didn't I? Huang Yunlan was doomed to die, but a group of people suddenly appeared and saved him. That's why I failed my mission. Now that the young master is in our hands, wouldn't it be easy to control Huang Yunlan?"

"Trying to control Huang Yunlan? Huang Yunlan isn't dead. You think you can control the Rat Clan to work for you with a lousy Young Master's Seal? What are you thinking...?"

Xiang Yue abruptly changed the subject, placing the knife against Huang Wushang's face and lightly flicking it. The tip of the sword traced from Huang Wushang's face to his neck as she spoke threateningly.

"Huang Wushang, stop talking. Now that we've all laid our cards on the table, I'll let you die knowing why. You got the Young Master's Seal, but you failed to kill Huang Yunlan. For someone as unreliable as you, it's already merciful of Master to have you alive. What more do you want...?"

"I want to live, can't you give me a chance to make amends?"

The desolate fog still trembled and gasped for breath, begging for mercy.

"Hmph... It's too late. You probably won't see the sun rise tomorrow."

"But Master clearly promised me... Lord Xiangyue, please be merciful and spare me!"

"But my orders were to kill all the useless trash."

"Are you really going to abandon me...!"

"It's so obvious, you might as well just accept your death! Resistance is useless, Aragiri Sho, don't think too much, just accept your death."

Xiangyue's sword brought an end to Huangwu Shang.

"Sister, you're still the same as always. Whenever someone dies, you patiently explain everything clearly, as if you're afraid they won't know how they died...?"

"You've arrived. Does Master have any further tasks to assign...?"

"No... I just came to see my sister..."

"If there's nothing else, then let's go back...!"

After Xiangyue finished speaking, sheathed her sword and left with her younger sister, who wore a similarly mysterious veil behind her. The middle-aged man lying in a pool of blood on the ground instantly transformed into a weasel.

"Li Luo, hurry up, stop dawdling...!"

Tu Shanyan impatiently urged Li Luo on, but Li Luo continued to dawdle, walking slowly. Li Luo knew that Tu Shanyan would definitely ignore her again once he saw Huan Ruge. Li Luo cherished this opportunity to be alone with Tu Shanyan.

Li Luo thought to herself, Huan Ruge has been possessing Tu Shan Yan for so many years, she shouldn't die in just a short while.

"Coming, coming... What's the rush?"
