The Ancient Gods' Whisper-Chapter 904 - 425: Breaking Point!

The Red King smiled and said, "I said before, I hope you join my camp. That offer is always valid. Let me ask you again, are you willing to become one of us? My era is over, and you will be the next king of the Dark World. You won’t even have to wait until you become a demigod; I will willingly give up my position for you."

"Jiang Chunyang is finished. Once I reclaim his Holy Corpse, he will be completely dead."

He paused: "You will seamlessly rule the entire Dark World, and the girl you love will be completely free. Of course, if you’re willing to develop further with the person next to me, that’s also doable. After all, if the two of you combine, you’ll surely produce the strongest offspring, an ultimate life form surpassing the Ancient God Clan!"

Skylark shot him a cold glance, her eyes as chilling as a blade.

The Red King was startled, smiled wryly, and said, "Hey, hey, I was just joking. Don’t look at me like that; we’re all good friends, aren’t we? Anyway, that’s the President’s intention too."

Skylark raised her hand and gently pointed at her heart.

There was a golden seed mark there, seemingly insignificant but as dazzling as the sun.

Gu Jianlin was stunned because it was the Heavenly Person Seed.

"This is a deal I made with the Master, and to this day, I don’t know if she saw through my true identity then. She just gave me the Heavenly Person Seed and asked me to take good care of you."

The Red King shrugged: "I must admit, I don’t quite know how to take care of children, since my childhood wasn’t happy either. But kids should be easy to fool, right? Make them cry, give them candy, and they’ll stop quickly."

Skylark looked at the young man expressionlessly, as if waiting for his choice.

Gu Jianlin listened to these words, knowing the king opposite had good intentions.

But those words precisely pricked at what he loathed most.

What’s wrong with kids?

Do their joys and sorrows not matter?

Back when those two got divorced, it was the same, always thinking he was just a child and understood nothing.

The woman held him thinking he was still clueless, fooling him that she was only going on a business trip.

But that trip lasted over a decade.

The man told him nothing either, always saying it was for his good, and then he was gone.

In the end, the President was the same.

Also wanting to die bearing everything, then leaving him alone.

All this is great, but he doesn’t like it.

In the silence, the golden ancient tree trembled, the pitch-black lotus blossomed.

Vast life energy gathered, as if forming a fruit shrouded in mist.

The gold and black light flowed, distinct yet harmonious.

A void light appeared, like the gates of the Divine Country opening in a trance.

The Red King turned, a glint of splendor in his eyes, muttering, "As expected, this was prepared for the Qilin, only with him can such an astonishing thing be condensed."

Skylark squinted her beautiful eyes, reaching out to touch but heard a voice behind her.

"Perhaps you think that throwing out the President’s intention to negotiate with me would make me nod."

Gu Jianlin shook his hand, the Qilin Wedge trembled violently: "The President actually doesn’t understand me either. My trust is given only once, and you threw it away like trash. You say so much to me, but ultimately, it’s for your plan. You’re afraid of me because this is my world." 𝒇𝙧𝙚𝓮𝔀𝓮𝒃𝙣𝓸𝒗𝒆𝒍.𝙘𝒐𝒎

He paused: "Otherwise, that sneak attack just now would be unnecessary."

At this moment, the fragments of their past experiences broke in his mind.

Shopping and fleeing on Yokohama’s streets, guarding each other in a love hotel, racing together in Tokyo, the life-or-death moment at Shinjuku Station, and the promise in that sunset.

Her smile, her voice, her warmth.

And at last, when facing Heaven’s Punishment, the roar and sense of comfort from behind.

All severed with one stroke.

Skylark was taken aback, the sudden strong wind dispersing her long hair.

"We are no longer of the same kind, and we won’t fight side by side again."

Gu Jianlin raised the Qilin Wedge: "We are... enemies."

The fragment in mid-air sensed an ethereal will, whistling towards him.

With a crack.

Finally, the Qilin Wedge became perfect and flawless.

It was a pitch-black iron sword resembling a cross scepter, engraved with hideous patterns, like a roaring Qilin, the vibrating blade sounded like thunder.

From this moment, Gu Jianlin forcibly broke the link of karma, the matrix that required his consent to launch had its connecting line severed, distinct stances.

With the tremor of the void, a black Qilin seemed to emerge from the darkness.

The boy of the past finally grew up at this moment.

No longer relying on anyone, only himself.

A black Ink Jade Mask covered his face, the intense golden eyes glowing from silence.

At this moment, his figure flickered violently.

In a trance, like a dark beast, yet also a lonely youth.

"Get out of my way."
