American Exorcism Male God-Chapter 225: Escaping by a Hair’s Breadth
Annabelle hovered above Xu Yi’s head, transforming into her original form, a doll in a white dress that emanated a unique fluctuation.
Black patterns appeared on Noah Weiss’s body, the curse of Annabelle.
But Noah Weiss’s muscles bulged, and the black patterns were forcibly expelled from his body.
Xu Yi had an expression as if he’d seen a ghost, the opponent had actually managed to expel Annabelle’s curse through sheer physical strength.
He sprinted towards the edge of the rooftop, the "Breaking Cocoon" of the Evil Deity was incredibly strong, escape was the only option now.
He pressed the detonator in his hand, he hadn’t been idling on the rooftop, having placed a large amount of explosives around it.
The explosives erupted thunderously, dust and smoke billowing everywhere.
Of course, the explosives couldn’t harm Noah Weiss; they were only meant to disrupt his vision and create an opportunity to escape.
He dashed off the rooftop, and in the instant his feet left the ground, a pair of glider wings appeared in his hands, which he had prepared in advance and stored in his Toy Treasure Box.
Xu Yi flew off into the sky, instantly distancing himself from the building.
But a dark silhouette suddenly appeared behind him, a palm piercing through his chest, yanking out his heart.
Xu Yi violently spat out a mouthful of blood, still desperately clutching the steel frame of the glider, kicking out at Noah Weiss with all the strength in his hind legs.
Noah Weiss fell towards the ground and slammed violently into an overhanging billboard, creating a deep dent in the steel construction.
Noah Weiss lifted Xu Yi’s heart to his face, his eyes shimmering with excitement, ready to stuff the heart into his mouth.
But the heart suddenly combusted without any flame, instantly turning into a blazing fire, the black-gold Demon-Suppressing Flame engulfing Noah Weiss.
The glider carried Xu Yi farther away from Noah Weiss, his whole body dripping with cold sweat, grimacing in pain.
Having lost his heart, an ordinary person would have been dead beyond doubt; fortunately, he possessed the Entries for Hyper Accelerated Regeneration, and his missing heart was visibly regrowing.
Of course, he didn’t believe he could escape merely with explosives and a glider; his blood and flesh were excellent mediums for the Demon-Suppressing Flame, which was the source of his confidence in escaping.
Xu Yi breathed a slight sigh of relief; he was now far from Noah Weiss, who was entangled by the Demon-Suppressing Flame and lacking the ability to fly, so he shouldn’t be able to catch up that easily.
But suddenly, a chill enveloped Xu Yi, and he sensed the presence of death, his head whipping around.
Noah Weiss was standing on the billboard, the Demon-Suppressing Flame on his body already dispelled. He stretched out his index finger, aiming it from afar at Xu Yi.
A black liquid flowed out from Noah Weiss’s palm, converging at his fingertip, a large amount of the dark water taking on a sparkling glow.
Noah Weiss flicked his finger, and a massive column of black water shot towards Xu Yi, skimming the edge of a building on its way, instantly corroding away the solid steel exterior.
The column of water moved incredibly fast, Xu Yi had no way to avoid it, and was engulfed along with the glider.
The black water fell down, leaving the spot where Xu Yi had been completely empty.
The cameras on the fighter jet faithfully recorded this scene, the footage transmitted back to the underground command center, where everyone fell silent.
Until recently, Xu Yi could chase the Evil Deity around frantically; now, he was utterly powerless to fight back.
"Mayor, can the exorcist with the title truly kill that monster? I’m afraid we need to prepare for the worst," someone broke the silence.
The mayor sighed, "Let’s wait till the Dragon Empress arrives. If that’s still not enough, we’ll have no choice but to contact that organization."
The scene of Xu Yi being devoured by the black water was not witnessed only by the people at the command center.
Far away, on a tall building, Lisa and Carlyle watched through binoculars.
"Xu Yi…" Carlyle collapsed to the ground, trembling uncontrollably, her mind a blank, not daring to think back to what had just happened.
"Take care of yourself!" Lisa said softly, then turned and went downstairs.
Lisa’s voice was gentle, and her facial expression didn’t change much, but when Carlyle made eye contact with her, she glimpsed the terror and overwhelming grief in her eyes.
Carlyle knew very well that Lisa was rushing to the spot where Xu Yi had fallen.
If Xu Yi truly had died, one could imagine that Lisa would undoubtedly charge at the monster in an attempt at revenge, even if it meant her own death.
Noah Weiss leapt down from the tall building and landed with a crash.
He knew Xu Yi wasn’t dead; he could still smell the sweet scent of blood emanating from them.
Their scent hadn’t shifted, meaning they likely sustained severe injuries and couldn’t move anymore.
This situation was most advantageous, and at the thought of devouring that sweet blood soon, Novavis roared in excitement.
Just then, a rocket whizzed through the air and smashed into Novavis’s face, exploding on impact.
Such an attack was so trivial that Novavis didn’t even bother to dodge; he turned his head and saw a figure crouching in an alley, a rocket launcher on their shoulder.
The scene was captured by a camera and transmitted back to command, where everyone was stunned.
"Is that... Daniel?"
They could hardly believe it. Even Xu Yi was no match for the Evil Deity; Daniel, just an ordinary person, dared to challenge it with such a laughable approach?
Daniel threw aside the rocket launcher on his shoulder and stood straight, facing such a terrifying monster with no trace of fear on his face.
The vampire Barton once said, "True Avenger feels no fear."
Today, he finally understood the meaning behind those words.
After making arrangements for the surviving children of the Finns, he started to hurry over, which is why he was a bit late.
Novavis watched Daniel with interest, not attacking immediately.
Because he smelled sweet blood from him, the blood was still fermenting, far from its most delicious moment.
Daniel’s phone kept ringing; Mia called him relentlessly. He picked up the phone as if he didn’t care that the Evil Deity was right beside him.
"Daniel, I’ve got the children! Where are you? I can’t see you," Mia’s anxious voice came from the other end of the line.
"Mia, if possible, please take care of those children, and... forget about me!" Daniel crushed the phone in his hand, his face showing an indecipherable expression.
He turned his head to the Evil Deity and said softly, "You were released by me; now, it’s my turn to send you back to Hell!"
......
In a building far away, Xu Yi lay on the cold ground, his face void of any color from the intense pain.
Novavis was right; Xu Yi wasn’t dead, but he wasn’t far from death either.
His entire body had been dissolved by black water, leaving only a head.
In the last moments, he decapitated himself and threw his head to avoid certain death.
Hyper Accelerated Regeneration has its limits; if the body sustains too much damage, exceeding ninety percent, including the brain, it becomes very difficult to regenerate.
Now that his brain was preserved, given time, his body would slowly recover.
Xu Yi felt somewhat fortunate to possess the entry of Hyper Accelerated Regeneration; otherwise, it would have been extremely difficult to survive this encounter.
Despite having a Resurrection Coin, facing such a formidable power, it would only mean dying a few more times unless he rewound to a much earlier point and stayed far from the Evil Deity.
Suddenly, hurried footsteps echoed, and Xu Yi heard a cry filled with extreme sorrow. Enjoy new adventures from novelbuddy

"Xu Yi!"
Lisa’s face turned ghastly pale at the sight of Xu Yi’s head on the ground, nearly fainting from grief.
"I think I can still be saved!" Xu Yi quickly spoke out, fearing something untoward might happen, feeling somewhat relieved that his vocal cords were also preserved.
Xu Yi’s voice was so weak it was mostly breath, and Lisa couldn’t make out what he was saying, but seeing the head move, she burst into tears of joy.
Lisa had a rough understanding of Xu Yi’s ability, which is why she rushed over immediately.
"Lisa, I need your help!" Xu Yi looked intently at Lisa.
Running away wasn’t his style, and with the Evil Deity’s powers, he didn’t know where he could possibly flee to.
He wanted to reclaim the original blood from the test subjects and attempt to break through to the "Blood God Throne"!
