Fiancée Stolen by MC, I Trip Them up

"Haa... haa..."

"I never expected this to be the power bestowed upon me by the Nether Tree, I... I’m going to kill you!"

As the headless corpse rose creepily, under the horrified gazes of everyone, a terrifying sound emerged from its abdomen.

At this moment.

Zhao Yi truly felt that this headless corpse had power comparable to a Pseudo-Magic God, though slightly weaker than before.

If not examined carefully, one might not even notice it.

After Moska’s headless corpse finished speaking, it suddenly charged towards Zhao Yi.

Crystalline ice arrows formed behind it, covering the entire sky.

Shortly.

The ice arrows fell, all shooting towards Zhao Yi. 𝘧𝓇ℯ𝑒𝓌𝑒𝑏𝓃𝘰𝘷𝘦𝘭.𝒸ℴ𝓂

"Earth Wall!"

Zhao Yi waved his hand to block the attack.

Then.

He looked at the headless corpse, lifted the long blade condensed from the Earth Element, and charged forward.

"Haa haa... you go to hell..."

Before the headless corpse could finish its words, a sharp blade light flashed, slicing the body into several pieces.

The body’s stomach rolled on the ground, still making sounds.

"You want to kill me?"

"No... the Nether Tree bestows upon me eternal life, you cannot kill me!"

After these words, all the body fragments began to wriggle.

Then, the corpse’s stomach shouted, and instantly those scattered limbs flew towards the stomach.

Only to see the corpse crudely reattach the limbs, its body expanding rapidly while also mutating.

Its spine exploded, revealing a heart that turned into a vortex entangled by black tree roots, with black Nether Fire burning inside and countless wailing grievances on it.

In the blink of an eye.

The corpse transformed into a seven or eight-meter-tall gigantic figure, robust and muscular.

However.

Above its neck, there was no head, making it extraordinarily horrifying.

"Die!"

It shouted, and for a moment, the explosive sound swept through the Water City.

The mages who hadn’t withdrawn felt their eardrums tortured, showing expressions of pain on their faces.

Then.

The headless corpse waved its hand, condensing a giant blue ice sword.

Its chill was piercing, clearly an extraordinary object.

As the giant sword fell, Zhao Yi had no choice but to lift his long blade to block.

"Boom!"

Dust flew everywhere as Zhao Yi was harshly knocked away.

However, he wasn’t harmed at all, standing up again with furrowed brows, silently.

"Truly a top-notch body, if I could possess it, no one would be able to harm me."

The headless corpse looked, his heart stirring with endless desire to possess.

If only this body were his.

His strength would surely not be as simple as it is now.

After standing up, Zhao Yi immediately moved to the side, having already guessed the headless corpse’s next move.

Huge walls appeared behind him, blocking the attack of the headless corpse.

Even Zhao Yi found it somewhat tricky at the moment.

"This won’t do, it’s not a solution. Let me try once more to find the limit of its regeneration."

Since being chopped into pieces could still revive, Zhao Yi decided to dismember it more thoroughly to test.

Thus.

He gripped the long blade, gathering strength.

Seizing the gap in the headless corpse’s attack, he soared into the air, transforming into a tireless ochre gyro.

"Puff puff puff!"

Zhao Yi became a spinning top, slashing from bottom to top.

Starting with its calves, continuously slicing upwards.

In less than a second.

The headless corpse’s calves became a skeleton, with all flesh, musculature, and membranes completely stripped by Zhao Yi.

Zhao Yi did not stop here, continuing the onslaught.

Until he reduced the entire headless corpse to only a skeleton.

He did not believe that in such a state, the headless corpse could revive.

In the next second.

All the skeletal remains collapsed with a crash, leaving only the heart entwined with numerous tree roots to vanish.

Zhao Yi frowned.

It couldn’t end this simply; that lingering sense of oppression could still be felt.

Indeed.

In the central tower of the Water City.

A figure rose among the Water City’s mages.

Initially, he was still bewildered, gazing at his own body for a long time, then letting out horrifying laughter.

"Ke ke ke..."

"I’ve been reborn..."

"The Nether Tree truly granted me the power of immortality, I shall live forever, none can hinder the Nether Tree’s path."

...

Zhao Yi heard the voice and instantly appeared in front of him.

Upon seeing this person, a name surged into Zhao Yi’s mind.

"Moska?"

"Haha... yes, it’s me!"

"Unexpected, isn’t it? Even if you’re faster, so what? You kill me once, and then? Can you kill me 10 times? 100 times?"

"There are millions in the Water City, they’re all linked to me, which means I can revive millions of times, go ahead and kill me! Let’s see when you can kill me all!"

"By then, even if I die, so what? The Nether Tree would have already taken over this world!"

...

If he hadn’t spoken, Zhao Yi might indeed have killed him millions of times.

Such a scenario could allow the innocent in Water City to find peace.

Moreover, he had already seen, killing him once caused a slight drop in his strength; kill enough times, and his power might not even match an ordinary person.

Reviving millions of times means nothing without power; what threat can a weakling pose?

Originally, Zhao Yi intended to kill him dozens of times, reducing his power to a minimal state to safely find the River of Time.

However.

Considering the bizarre heart, its roots ablaze with black flame, Zhao Yi decided to be cautious, in case of an unexpected turn of events.

Seeing Moska’s fearless expression, Zhao Yi thought for a moment, extending his hand towards him, saying: "Earth Cage!"

"Binding!"

"Gravity Squeeze!"

Three spells in succession, firmly restraining him.

The Earth Cage trapped him within, neither heavenward nor earthward, no escape.

Binding kept him tightly suppressed to prevent escape.

Gravity Squeeze inhibited the energy within his body, preventing him from abandoning the body and self-destructing.

In this way, even if Zhao Yi couldn’t kill him right away, he could temporarily end this battle.

Looking at the situation in Water City, Zhao Yi felt troubled for the first time.

He didn’t know how to handle this while still searching for the River of Time, worried that if he didn’t resolve the situation here, the Nether Tree’s actions might hinder his plans.

As of now.

Earth City and Water City were both invaded by the Nether Tree.

According to Hans and others, the remaining cities might also undergo significant changes.

Just then.

He suddenly sensed a familiar voice echoing in his mind, his face revealing a look of joyful surprise.
