Chapter 1599: Chapter 1596: The Flower of Extreme Evil (First Update)
All returned to silence, with only the violent sound of rain continuing to rage.
The twin-tailed girl gathered her gaze and kept walking forward.
She passed through a small alley, turned around a ruin, and finally arrived before a wilderness.
The rain here was much lighter than in the city, yet still fiercely intense.
The twin-tailed girl’s gaze wandered as she stood silently for a moment, then stepped into the wilderness.
The surroundings were pitch black, and the swaying trees in the wind and rain appeared particularly eerie on such a stormy night.
Without stopping, the twin-tailed girl quickly passed through a large area of jungle, reaching a large tree in the heart of the wilderness.
This tree, with its thick foliage, blocked much of the rain, so the ground beneath it was not so wet.
In the corner of this clearing stood a small tombstone.
Upon seeing this tombstone, a look of sadness appeared in the twin-tailed girl’s eyes, and then she slowly walked towards it.
"Brother, I’ve come to see you again!"
The wind and rain continued, and a distant roll of thunder sounded on the horizon, quickly sweeping across the sky.
Crack!
A sharp flash lit up the world, illuminating the twin-tailed girl’s face covered in tears.
In this world of fierce wind and bitter rain, the solitary figure by the grave appeared extraordinarily desolate.
The twin-tailed girl gazed quietly, crouched slowly, gently touched the small tombstone, and leaned her head against it.
"Brother, I am so tired! Really so tired!"
As she spoke, the twin-tailed girl began to softly sob.
Soon, the sound of crying grew louder, eventually turning into wailing.
However, this cry was quickly swallowed by the violent sound of rain.
For a long time.
After this almost cathartic crying, the twin-tailed girl gradually stopped crying and gently kissed the tombstone.
"Brother, you are the only one I can truly speak my heart to! Thank you!"
With that, she slowly stood up, raised her hand to pluck the increasingly scarlet flower from her chest, and placed it on the tombstone.
The flower swayed lightly then timidly lowered its head, gradually dimming.
The twin-tailed girl took a deep breath, "Brother, I have some little troubles outside to deal with! Next year, I’ll visit you again!"
With those words, she turned around, the previous weakness and sorrow vanished instantly, replaced by a face filled with icy resolve and murderous intent.
"Come out, all of you! It’s impressive you found this place in such heavy rain!"
As her voice rang out, shadows began to appear in the endless wilderness.
Crack!
Just at that moment, another sharp flash split the sky.
The blinding light illuminated the figures appearing in the wilderness, each dressed in thick raincoats, their faces hidden in shadow, but on their chests was an emblem of a falling star.
In such a stormy night, the sudden appearance of such a silent group seemed as if demons had crawled out of hell.
The twin-tailed girl’s expression turned cold, "Xing Luodao! Ha, I never thought, to deal with me alone, Xing Luodao would send so many people; truly an elaborate deployment!"
A strange cackle came from behind the crowd, "Naturally, the Sect Master of The Flower of Extreme Evil is worthy of such a spectacle!"
"Oh? So, you Xing Luodao had long set a trap to deal with me?" The twin-tailed girl said indifferently, yet her eyes shimmered with a dangerous glare.
The crowd automatically parted, and a smiling, elegantly dressed man slowly walked forward, smiling at the twin-tailed girl.
"Luo Lanting, you guessed right! We’ve been planning for a long time to deal with you!"
Indeed, this twin-tailed girl was the Sect Master of The Flower of Extreme Evil, Luo Lanting.
She quietly looked at the man, suddenly letting out a cold laugh.
"Xu Xianyue! I didn’t expect even you to be mobilized, it seems Xing Luodao... really spared no expense!"
Xu Xianyue shrugged slightly, "I said, it’s worth any cost to eliminate the Sect Master of The Flower of Extreme Evil!"
Luo Lanting sighed softly at his words, "To know my trail so accurately, it seems someone from The Flower of Extreme Evil has betrayed me!"
"Scheming and betrayal are nothing unusual in Lost Paradise, aren’t they?" Xu Xianyue laughed heartily.
Luo Lanting looked up at the branches stretching toward the sky and said softly, "Yes, Lost Paradise should be like this! I always thought The Flower of Extreme Evil would be different! Now it seems... I was too naive!"
Seeing Luo Lanting seemingly slipping into a trance, Xu Xianyue gave a signal to his men behind him.
One by one, figures silently vanished into the curtain of rain.
Then Xu Xianyue said with a smirk, "Is this the place where the legendary Luo Canyang fought alone and fell? Tsk, tsk, it seems both you and your brother are destined to perish here!"
Xu Xianyue’s words were obviously meant to provoke Luo Lanting by deliberately bringing up past events.
For those who danced with death and lived by blood, once the prey fell into anger, it meant her death was near.
Indeed.
A flash of anger appeared in Luo Lanting’s eyes.
But it lasted for only a fleeting moment before returning to normal.
Yet for these assassins, that was enough.
Figures exploded from the darkness, the violent air currents they stirred turning the falling raindrops into deadly weapons.
Thud thud!
After a few muffled sounds, trees began to snap.
These age-old trees with rock-hard trunks were punctured like sieves.
One can imagine what would happen if this struck a person.
But just as these raindrops were about to pierce Luo Lanting, a giant black umbrella suddenly opened, blocking them.
There was no sound!
Those raindrops, infused with violent star power, disappeared soundlessly.
A great sense of danger flooded their minds.
The Xing Luodao assassins at the front began retreating without hesitation.
But at that moment, the giant umbrella slowly lifted, revealing Luo Lanting’s exquisite face.𝙛𝓻𝒆𝒆𝒘𝙚𝓫𝙣𝙤𝒗𝙚𝓵.𝙘𝙤𝙢
Her eyes shimmered, and she said calmly, "Want to leave after attacking? There’s no such easy way in the world!"
As these words fell.
Beneath the skin of Luo Lanting’s cheek appeared a tattoo of a flower, exuding a perilous and eerie beauty.
Boom!
As the flower emerged, those retreating figures suddenly seized up, then fell to the ground in unison.
Next, slender stems emerged from their noses and mouths, swaying slightly in the wind before slowly blooming into a strange, blood-red flower.
