THE Dark Saint only stared at Luo Yan while still pinching his chin. Seriously, Luo Yan was on the verge of just kicking the other’s little brother down there. But then he wondered if the male NPCs in this game even had a ’little brother’. So, he decided not to do it in case this bastard didn’t have one. It would only be a waste of effort.
As he was contemplating what his next move should be, the ground suddenly shook and they heard loud explosions one by one. In every explosion, the shaking of the ground, no, the whole temple, intensified. Until cracks appeared on the walls. Those cracks became bigger and bigger in every explosion. And the temple they were in just started to crumble.
Of course, Luo Yan didn’t just stand there while all of that was happening. The moment he heard the first explosion, he immediately felt that whatever was binding him disappeared.
If the binding was dependent on the other’s mental instability, then he could understand why it suddenly disappeared. Either way, he didn’t really care for the reason why. The important was, he’s finally free.
So, he quickly used his skill [Shadow Walk]. His whole body submerged into the shadow below his feet, as if entering a pool of water. He had five minutes before the skill entered cool down. But that was enough to get out of here.
Of course, he did not forget to leave the other a gift before doing so.
It should be noted that whenever he was inside the shadow, he could still ’see’ what was happening above. There was like a monitor around him showing him a 360 degrees panoramic view of what was happening. So, he could see where he should go and where he shouldn’t.
Unlike what others might think, the world inside the shadow was not unending darkness. It had an ’end’. As long as he encountered this dead end, he could no longer continue. It meant that that was the end of the shadow he was travelling on.
Luo Yan rushed towards the direction where a crack big enough for him to pass through was located. That was not the only reason why he chose that particular crack. It was also because he could see a glimpse of the sky from there. Meaning if he jumped through that crack, he would automatically be taken outside.
Honestly, he could probably just teleport out of here. That would be safest choice. But now that they had reached this point, he kind of wanted to see the end of everything. Especially the death of that perverted Dark Saint.
The shadow he was travelling on went over the wall where the crack was. Which made it easier for him. Once he reached the dead end of the shadow, he jumped up and then, threw himself out of the crack.
He didn’t forget to look back just to see the shocked expression on the Dark Saint’s face. As if he didn’t expect all of this to happen. So, to add to the other’s ’shock’, Luo Yan smiled and gave him the middle finger.
Then, he let his body fall.
At that moment, he heard Shen Ji Yun’s voice in his ear.
"Yan Yan, what’s happening there? Are you still unable to talk to me? Why does your signal looked like you’re falling from a high place? No, you don’t need to answer. I’m coming there right now."
The other’s successive questions and statement made Luo Yan smiled. He almost forgot that their earrings had some kind of GPS function. He checked and saw that Shen Ji Yun was travelling at a very fast speed and was now close to where he was.
"Brother Ji Yun, if you don’t hurry up, I might fall to the ground," he said in teasing voice.
He didn’t hear a reply from the other end. He was about to say that he was only joking. After all, his avatar could definitely handle this fall. But before he could do that, he heard a swishing sound. Like a bullet travelling at a very fast speed. And then, he felt his back touching something warm and a bit hard.
All he saw were purple scales before he was surrounded by dark purple smoke. He then felt the back of his knees and shoulders being held by a pair of strong arms. He raised his head and a smile automatically appeared on his lips when he saw the person holding him.
"Brother Ji Yun seems to really like carrying me like a princess," he teased.
Shen Ji Yun almost answered ’yes’. Good thing, he still had his wits somehow and managed to stop on time. Instead, he asked, "Are you okay? How did you end up falling like that? Did that Dark Saint push you?"
[Rather than push me, I think he wanted to pull me to his bedchamber.] – Luo Yan thought wryly. Of course, he didn’t say that.
"I’m okay, Brother Ji Yun. And no, I jumped down myself," he said. "It’s the fastest way to get out of that crumbling temple."
Speaking of crumbling, he just noticed that everything around them was in the same state. He had a good look of what was happening the moment they landed and Shen Ji Yun put him down.
There was a sea of fire consuming everything – the forest, the buildings, the statues. He could hear the helpless screams of the dark mages that were probably caught in the explosion. And at a distance, he could see a black dragon breathing out blue flames. Adding more to this scorching hell.
Ironically enough, this scene looked similar to what these dark mages did to the demon fox village. This truly felt like divine retribution. How beautiful and satisfying.
Then, Luo Yan saw the Dark Saint landing effortlessly in front of them. He frowned. He again felt the strong urge to badly hit someone.
If only this guy burnt alongside this island. Then, it would definitely be a perfect ending.contemporary romance
