PEERLESS GENIUS SYSTEM III

Chapter 429: Negotiation

It continued to pour, and the falling rain washed the leaves of the trees before dripping to nourish the ground below. Nature was drinking to its heart's content.

Su Li stood staring blankly into the rain. Her wet clothes were sticking to her body, and her hair was in a mess with a few strands of wet hair clinging to her cheeks. Tears flowed down her cheeks, mixing with the rain. Her heart ached as she looked helplessly at Xiao Luo, who could barely stand. There was nothing she could do but silently sob.

King Kong's eyes had turned red as well. Xiao Luo had been severely slashed all over his body and he was soaked in blood. Like a hero who had reached the end of the road, a sense of desolation overwhelmed him.

"Your majesty, kill him. Kill him now!"

Curisa urged Ming apprehensively. Xiao Luo terrified him and had become his worse nightmare. Curisa wanted Xiao Luo destroyed, for he did not wish to have anything to fear.

Ming looked at Xiao Luo with no emotion. Then he took a step forward and instantly teleported to where Xiao Luo stood.

"Why did you stand up? Can't you just lie down?"

His voice was icy. Ming intended to walk away if Xiao Luo did not stand up. Even if Xiao Luo had been the feared arch-enemy that Granny Witch had predicted, he would still let him go. But Xiao Luo stubbornly stood up and challenged his kingly authority. Even if he had wanted to go easy on Xiao Luo, he could not do so now.

Xiao Luo's consciousness completely recovered by now. He stared fearlessly at the white-robed man in front of him. After coughing a few mouthfuls of blood, he said, "Why... can't you be the one lying down?"

"Are you saying that I should lie down?"

Ming frowned slightly and asked, "Are you still able to fight?"

"I think... I can!"

Xiao Luo roared the last words in a thundering voice. He could no longer move his arms and legs, so he used his head to smash ruthlessly into Ming.

However, Ming's body was completely bathed in silver light, and he was unharmed by Xiao Luo's attack. On the other hand, Xiao Luo suffered from that collision, and blood gushed out from the injury on his forehead. He staggered back shakily before he lost his balance and fell onto the rain-soaked ground.

Fatigue and pain seriously weakened Xiao Luo.

He laid motionless on the ground, unable to struggle or move for a while.

"You are indeed very strong. Unfortunately, the enemy you face is me."

Ming walked across and stood over Xiao Luo. He stared down at him indifferently and said, "I'm stronger than you, yet you do not know how to retreat, so you will die today. Our Light Clan and your Xiao Clan have been enemies for a thousand years. I should have forced you to reveal the whereabouts of the other people from Xiao Clan, but I do not intend to do that. The person I intend to kill today is only you!"

Xiao Luo laughed coldly and said, "Then... should I... still thank you?"

Ming did not respond to that remark. Instead, he slowly drew his sword out of its sheath once again and directed his power to the tip of the sword. He intended to pierce that sword through Xiao Luo's head, right through that space between his eyebrows.

"Stop!"

Su Li screamed mournfully, and suddenly, a strange phenomenon occurred. Divine-like energy emitted from her body and spread around her.

Curisa and King Kong stared in disbelief. Even the police officers who were watching from afar were astonished. A silvery glow enveloped her entire body, and her eyes turned purple. They were enchanting and beautiful, making her look like a goddess to be worshipped in the heavens.
