Apocalypse Gachapon

Chapter 871: Blood Veil

Even if Hong Xiang was the weakest level eight expert, he was still level eight. When he used all his strength, Flame Dove had to treat him seriously.

Although the Fissure Battle Technique gave Flame Dove strong defense, as he was previously injured and his attention was on Ye Zhongming, he was caught off guard and hit by Hong Xiang. He flew and spat out blood in mid-air.

His back was already bloodied from Thousand Seal Slash. Now that he was hit, that wound grew bigger, and more bones broke. His intestines were hit, and he spat out more blood.

This king was very powerful in the Imperial City and was now filled with rage.

If his body hadn’t sunk previously, the battle would have ended, and he would have insta killed Hong Xiang. He would then turn and kill Ye Zhongming with a proud attitude.

But the situation wasn’t good now.

A level eight king wasn’t invincible.

Ye Zhongming and Hong Xiang found it a waste. This was a good chance to end the battle, but this king used his weird battle technique and strong body to tank it.

Although the situation had changed, no one knew if Hong Xiang had any tricks up his sleeve.

What made Hong Xiang worried was that this was Flame Dove’s territory. Although they were prepared, he wasn’t confident they would succeed.

What if Ye Zhongming and his subordinates couldn’t stop the 18 guards? What if Neal went against his word? What if the other kings interfered?

If any of that happened, Ye Zhongming and him would end up dead.

Hong Xiang was already used to his comfortable life, so he feared such a thing would happen.

Flame Dove didn’t allow anything to happen to himself. Hong Xiang and Ye Zhongming didn’t want to die either. So, no matter what, they only had to do one thing. They had to kill each other before others interfered.

Thus, both sides attacked.

After Hong Xiang knocked Flame Dove back, he wasn’t feeling good either. Blood surged in his body. The place that he used to hit him had lost feeling. Half his body felt numb and powerless. He knew that Flame Dove’s Fissure battle technique invaded his body, and if he didn’t treat it in time, it would cause problems in the future.

But this wasn’t time to heal. Hong Xiang didn’t even stand properly before he charged at Flame Dove, which hadn’t landed.

Flame Dove moved, too. His body was still rolling in the air, but he activated his battle technique. The black flames covered the wound on his back, and pain appeared on his face.

He used the technique to seal his wounds. As a result, those wounds wouldn’t affect his battle strength in a short time. Of course, it would be problematic after, and he would need more time to recover.

But it was worth it!

If he could kill Hong Xiang and capture Ye Zhongming, everything would be worth it!

He ignored his broken fingers. The black flames gathered there and turned into a black flame sword. When he landed, he needed to slice Hong Xiang’s head—or rather, slice Ye Zhongming’s only movable arm.

Ye Zhongming moved. He scattered some Cannibal Flower seeds at where Flame Dove was landing.

At the same time, he used the Summoning Technique!

If he had a chance, he was more willing to use nurture skill to turn these seeds into flowers. But he was too far away. At the same time, Ye Zhongming also scattered some Fertile Soil.

The seeds landed, and with the Summoning Technique, they turned into Cannibal Flowers. Due to the Fertile Soil, they were much bigger.

The information that spread back to him showed that they weren’t as strong as those Gilded Cannibal Flowers but grew much quicker.

Flame Dove’s pupils constricted, and he didn’t expect these things to appear when he landed.

He was helpless and had to slice these cannibal flowers.

This sword was an energy sword. Each time he used it, it would consume energy. Each slash would cause its strength to drop.

Cannibal Flower couldn’t stop the black flame sword. They were still killed in one slash, even if they had the Connected Branches ability.

The black flame sword dimmed a little.

Flame Dove decided to kill Ye Zhongming first. This fellow had too many surprising attack styles, which terrified him.

But the moment he landed, he saw Ye Zhongming’s mocking smile.

There was some obstruction from his feet. He lowered his head and saw a small but firm vine wrapping his ankle. Although his movement was about to snap that mutated plant, it successfully stopped Flame Dove.

He knew that things weren’t good. His body turned, and Hong Xiang’s second strike arrived.

This time, although knocked aside, he grabbed Hong Xiang before losing balance!

Blood flowed from Flame Dove’s mouth. The feeling of being knocked about wasn’t good, but he still gave off a vicious smile. He was prepared and grabbed Hong Xiang! The sword pierced through Hong Xiang’s right chest, and his hand was about to grab his throat.

He would kill Hong Xiang soon.

But before they landed, Flame Dove could see Ye Zhongming’s movement due to the angle. That young man held the long weapon he was carrying and pointed the barrel at himself.

Although he didn’t recognize it, he could sense danger. He didn’t crush Hong Xiang’s neck and pulled Hong Xiang instead to block himself. No matter what fires from that barrel, it would hit Hong Xiang!

Flame Dove smiled. He knew he won even if the gaps in his teeth were covered in blood.

But in the next moment, the gunshot could be heard. Flame Dove’s body shook. A blood veil covered his eyes.
