Dimensional Store: Welcome to the Apocalypse Apartment - Chapter 293

Chapter 293

He had to die.

But whose hands he died by didn’t matter.

Gu Huaiwei watched the blood-red flames erode the jade pendant until cracks began to appear across its surface.

“Let Miemie and the others make their move.”

Gu Huaiwei left the Blood Flame Palace. A deafening explosion rang out, shaking the entire palace. In an instant, bricks and tiles flew, smoke billowed everywhere, and the red walls and green roofs were reduced to rubble.

Bai Miemie had set the fire. When she saw the blaze from the explosion, she excitedly jumped up and down and clapped, as if she were watching a fireworks show.

The righteous disciples recruited by Oasis Manor were locked in battle with the demonic cultists.

Ya Qianyu walked out from the searing flames, tongues of fire licking at his black robes. His black battle boots stepped onto a falling roof beam, and his face was dark with fury.

“Madam, today is our wedding day. Since you’ve invited so many guests, you should have told me in advance.”

Like an asura crawling out of Hell, he advanced step by step.

Gu Huaiwei smiled. “Palace Master, don’t be so angry. These people are all here to celebrate our wedding feast.”

“Then let these guests’ blood serve as the wine and delicacies for this Banquet!”

Ya Qianyu activated his demonic arts. In an instant, wind and clouds churned. The blood-red flames swallowed the fire from the explosion, and even the righteous cultivators fighting nearby were burned to ashes.

“Demon, stop slaughtering innocents!” Xu Sanyuan flew into the air, hand seals forming as he engaged him in battle. “What kind of skill is it to bully the weak? If you’ve got any real ability, fight me instead.”

“Hahaha!” Ya Qianyu threw back his head and laughed. “I’m slaughtering innocents? You kill the disciples of my palace, and that’s not bullying the weak? You dress it up in such noble words, but in the end it’s nothing more than a difference in sides.”

“Xu Sanyuan, stop wearing that sanctimonious, sorrowful expression all day long. I’m not that blind woman who’d fall for your act. The sight of your hypocrisy is disgusting!”

With that, Ya Qianyu struck with all his might. Xu Sanyuan clutched his chest and staggered back several steps, a thread of blood spilling from the corner of his lips.

Gu Huaiwei also circulated her spiritual energy and rode her flying sword into the sky to help.

“Ya Qianyu, everything you see before you is a gift I prepared especially for our wedding.”

Flames soared into the heavens, and corpses lay everywhere.

The destruction of the Blood Flame Palace was the wedding gift.

Ya Qianyu’s black eyes turned razor-sharp. “You’re just like that bitch-nothing but lies from beginning to end.”

“You’re the one who wanted to use me as a substitute. I only played along with your little performance. What, I did too good a job, and now you’re unhappy about it?”

Gu Huaiwei knew exactly how to get under people’s skin.

He frowned tightly. “The things you said to me-were those lies too?”

At a time like this, he was still obsessing over which words were true and which were false. Ya Qianyu must have cared about her sister to an extreme degree.

“The things about me were half true and half false. Everything about my sister, I made up.”

That single sentence completely enraged Ya Qianyu.

The temperature in his eyes dropped instantly. With ultimate fury came ultimate coldness. All hesitation vanished from his gaze as he leveled his massive sword at Gu Huaiwei.

“You deserve to die!”

Gu Huaiwei shot back, “If you tell me to die, I’ll die? I’d rather live forever!”

The sky, which had been shrouded in dark clouds, was instantly lit up by the flames blazing from Ya Qianyu’s body. Demonic energy surged as he moved with terrifying speed, his pitch-black greatsword ripping through the air as it came crashing down at Gu Huaiwei’s head.

Gu Huaiwei nimbly dodged aside.

Then Ya Qianyu twisted his blade, and ten arcs of sword energy came slashing in from all directions.

At the critical moment, Xu Sanyuan’s golden sword energy intercepted the fatal blow for Gu Huaiwei.
Countless streams of sword qi collided, and the shockwave blasted Gu Huaiwei several zhang backward.

“Demon, this is the final battle between you and me! Stop dragging innocents into it!”

“That slut isn’t innocent. She’s full of schemes. She stole my magical artifact and now wants to use your power to kill me.”

Xu Sanyuan stood tall and righteous. “Watch your mouth.”

Ya Qianyu shot Gu Huaiwei a glance and sneered, “Her talent for seducing men is no less than Gu Changge’s. Xu Sanyuan, don’t tell me she’s stolen your soul too?”

“You’re not allowed to insult Sister Changge again.” Bathed in righteous qi, Xu Sanyuan stopped wasting words on him. With a hand seal from his left hand, a massive sword formation appeared behind him.

“Calling her Changge over and over-since you want to die first, I’ll grant your wish!” Ya Qianyu let out a cold laugh. Clenching all five fingers, he sent the black sword stabbing toward Xu Sanyuan’s chest.

The two exchanged several moves in rapid succession.

Ya Qianyu fought with vicious, underhanded methods.

In the middle of the battle, he deliberately exposed an opening. Once Xu Sanyuan fell into the trap, flames gathered in Ya Qianyu’s palm and struck toward Xu Sanyuan’s heart meridian. Xu Sanyuan moved to counter, but had no time to dodge and was blasted away.

He crashed through the broken stone wall of Blood Flame Palace, and blood slid from the corner of his mouth, staining his green Daoist robe red.

Gu Huaiwei leaped into the air and blocked Ya Qianyu’s killing blow aimed straight at Xu Sanyuan.

“Tch, what a nuisance.” After failing to land that strike, Ya Qianyu craftily pulled back to a safe distance.

“Daoist Xu, are you alright?” Taking advantage of the brief opening, Gu Huaiwei dragged Xu Sanyuan to a safer spot.

Xu Sanyuan spat out a mouthful of blood. “I’m fine. I can still fight!”

A flying sword hovered before them.

A chill flashed through Ya Qianyu’s eyes, and demonic qi began gathering around him once more.

His long hair whipped wildly in the gale, and his eyes brimmed with a bloodthirsty smile. “You two really do care about each other. How about I send you both down to Hell together?”

Gu Huaiwei refused to give ground even in words. “If you’re not in Hell, I’m not going either!”

She used the spiritual energy she had obtained in this world to clash with Ya Qianyu.

Both of them were wounded.

The battle had already reached its fiercest stage when Mu Lanwo finally arrived with the remaining forces.

If she’d come any later, the fight would have been over.

“Miss Gu, leave the rest to me.”

Without waiting for Gu Huaiwei to respond, Mu Lanwo blew out a cloud of mist from between her red lips, shrouding the entire battlefield.

Gu Huaiwei was about to help her, but Lin She raised a hand to stop her. “Miss Gu, she can handle this.”

For an Assistant from Paradise, as long as they weren’t deliberately slacking off, dealing with people from a low-level Dimension was hardly difficult.

Mu Lanwo remained silent within the dense fog.

Only Ya Qianyu’s furious voice rang out from time to time.

“Gu Changge, what gave you the right to leave me?”

“Even if I have to kill you, I still won’t let you leave me!”

“Die! Why won’t you die? Why did you leave? Why didn’t you want me?”

“Kill me! Kill me! I’m the one who ruined your face, the one who imprisoned you for two hundred years. Don’t go-come back, come back and take revenge on me!”

His voice was filled with endless despair.

Yet Mu Lanwo walked out of the fog completely unscathed.

When the mist dispersed, Gu Huaiwei saw that Ya Qianyu was wrapped in a layer of transparent viscous fluid.

His body was being slowly dissolved by the fluid.

His brain was the last part to dissolve.

Mu Lanwo was a slow-paced person.

Even when it came to killing, she was the same.
