Marvel: Killing Makes You Stronger

Chapter 94: The Most Anticipated Fight in Hell

The sky was filled with interwoven black, purple, and gold, like the grandest fireworks display, making the blood-colored firmament sparkle and shine with brilliant colors.

Boom!

With an explosion, Bi Xiao broke through the air, aiming directly at Asmodeus. The latter was somewhat stunned, watching the human brat who broke through the two energies and charged at him. The speed was so fast that he could barely react.

In such a high-level confrontation, a moment of distraction or a single flaw often results in a beating.

Asmodeus realized this, but it was too late. The short distance of several thousand meters was fleeting for a being of Bi Xiao's level.

The white sneakers shone glaringly under the golden light. Asmodeus could only see a golden shadow at the corner of his eye before feeling intense pain and immense power on the side of his face.

Speed is power, and this is not just an empty saying.

When one already possesses great power and combines it with explosive speed, the force generated increases exponentially.

Even Asmodeus, a demon lord with an incredibly strong demon body, was nearly seriously injured by Bi Xiao's kick. Dizzy from the kick, Asmodeus's entire body fell to the ground like a slanting meteor.

Boom!

His body crashed heavily into the ground, raising clouds of dust, creating a crater several kilometers in diameter, with dense cracks spreading out like a spider web. The overwhelming blast wave swept around.

Asmodeus's body rebounded from the ground, and at this moment, Bi Xiao descended from the sky, bending his knees and smashing down on Asmodeus's chest.

Boom!

The thunderous explosion was even more enormous than before, and the blast wave was larger in scale. Asmodeus was slammed deep into the ground by Bi Xiao's knee strike, clearly dazed by the two heavy blows. Bi Xiao did not miss this opportunity.

He raised his fists and attacked Asmodeus madly, each punch carrying immense magic power, hitting Asmodeus with every blow, causing Asmodeus's demon body to collapse significantly. Blood and flesh flew everywhere, and the intense pain finally made Asmodeus react, roaring and swinging his fists to counterattack.

One of his three heads opened its mouth to spray hellfire at Bi Xiao, but Bi Xiao was too quick. Using his ability to predict three seconds into the future, he blocked Asmodeus's hands with one hand and twisted the human head's jaw with the other, aiming it at the goat head.

Hellfire sprayed out, almost burning the goat head.

Fortunately, he had enough resistance to hellfire, and the most it did was burn his skin. Asmodeus kept falling into the ground, struggling madly to counterattack, but all his efforts were accurately blocked by Bi Xiao.

A moment of distraction had led to Asmodeus being suppressed in such a miserable state.

Unable to bear it any longer, Asmodeus roared, and the eyes of his three heads glowed with black light. Bi Xiao immediately sensed the danger, realizing that Asmodeus wanted to use a burst of power to break free.

But would he let him go so easily?

Bi Xiao extended his right hand and slapped Asmodeus's chest heavily. An overwhelming psychic force invaded Asmodeus's mind, creating a massive psychic storm, recklessly bombing with countless psychic bombs.

In Asmodeus's mind, a storm of psychic calamities raged, with countless explosions turning into a storm, instantly causing Asmodeus's mind to short-circuit.

Bi Xiao would never miss such an opportunity to beat down a drowning dog.

He extended his right hand, and a golden light flowed out, forming a magnificent long sword resembling Saber’s Excalibur, symbolizing victory. Holding the golden sword, with starry golden light gathering and compressing into the blade, the overwhelming golden magic power covered the sword.

Without hesitation, he slashed down at Asmodeus below.

Boom!

The blood-colored earth within hundreds of thousands of meters turned golden, with the ground cracking and the plates shifting and falling. The surging golden magic power erupted from the cracks, turning the area into a sacred golden land.

Finally, a terrifying golden holy light shot from the ground straight into the sky.

A golden pillar of light hundreds of thousands of meters in diameter connected the blood-colored sky and earth, displaying tyrannical energy. Asmodeus's demon body could be seen instinctively releasing all its power within the pillar, with the black-purple energy of the world's evil struggling and resisting in the golden light pillar.

Evil and sanctity were in conflict.

The storm swept through heaven and earth, and this overwhelming energy fluctuation also shocked the demon lords observing the area.

They watched silently, intending to see if they could benefit from the situation. They knew that when they noticed the greedy looks from the other demon lords, the battle would usually end.

However, what these demon lords didn't expect was that the human brat, who seemed to have some grudge against Asmodeus, completely ignored them and didn't care if they would take advantage after the battle. He just wanted to fight Asmodeus.

They appreciated such a character.

Of course, they wouldn't show mercy when it was time to act.

But was this human brat too strong? The energy fluctuations left Asmodeus completely unable to fight back, even though they knew the human had taken advantage of Asmodeus's moment of distraction. Still, not everyone could turn such an opportunity into victory.

The demon lords knew that while the human was adept at seizing opportunities, their combat power was on the same level. It was impossible to kill Asmodeus.

The subsequent battle would inevitably turn into a prolonged war.

……

Time passed, and a week later, Forks Town was still filled with rain and clouds, with occasional thunderclaps in the sky.

In Chief Charlie's apartment.

Early in the morning, Bella, dressed in gray long-sleeved clothes due to the cold March rain, with a dark green short-sleeved hoodie over it, jeans, and carrying a backpack, came down to the living room.

In the kitchen, her father, Chief Charlie, was setting a plate with typical Western breakfast items like fried eggs, sandwiches, and milk on the table.

Charlie, seeing his silent and worried daughter, sighed, "Don't worry, Bella. I heard that Shaw was invited by the police station in Chino Town to help with a murder case due to his excellent drawing skills."

"I contacted Chief Morley in Chino Town and confirmed the news. He'll be back soon."

"You don't need to worry so much."

A week ago, Bi Xiao suddenly disappeared, and Charlie noticed Bella seemed worried. Bi Xiao's camper remained in front of the house.

After two days without seeing Bi Xiao, Bella became more anxious, and Charlie felt something was wrong. He thought Bi Xiao might have been taken by someone forcibly. As the town's chief, he immediately dispatched many people to search for Bi Xiao.

Even local gangs were searched, and finally, Bi Xiao was seen on a street surveillance camera, hurriedly leaving town on his black Ducati motorcycle, followed by a black Chevrolet SUV.

Charlie used his connections to find Bi Xiao in Chino Town and contacted Chief Morley there. Chino Town had experienced a murder case with multiple deaths. They needed Bi Xiao's drawing skills to sketch the murderer from witnesses' descriptions.

Charlie found this reasonable. Drawing experts were rare in small towns like Forks and Chino. Such experts were typically found only in big cities.

Applying for one from the city took time, so they invited Bi Xiao right away.

Charlie found this reasonable, but Bella saw it as a problem. She ate her breakfast absentmindedly, her mind replaying the night a week ago.

In her room, the tall figure had shattered the disgusting black aura and placed the necklace on her neck.

Every word he said was etched in her memory, and she watched him ride off into the night.

She knew he wasn’t simply invited by the police but was tracking that demon, a true demon.

A week had passed, and Bi Xiao hadn’t appeared. Did that mean he encountered an accident?

Bella was very worried and wanted to find him but knew she was powerless, just an ordinary girl.

She couldn't help Bi Xiao and might even cause trouble if she found him.

For the first time, Bella hated herself, wishing she were a mutant to help Bi Xiao.

Now, she could only pray silently, hoping to see that figure who brought her safety again.

After breakfast, Bella washed the dishes and told her father, "I’m going to school."

Receiving Charlie’s blessing, Bella drove her red Chevrolet pickup to school.

It was a school day. The new term had started in March, but Bella had delayed attending because of her worry for Bi Xiao. Today, persuaded by Charlie, she chose to go to school.

Driving, she unconsciously held the necklace around her neck.

The necklace given by the boy was magical, as he said, protecting her, glowing golden at night to soothe her worries and help her sleep.

It felt like he was with her, watching over her.

The necklace seemed to have a magical power, constantly improving her health.

Remembering her time with Bi Xiao, his every action and smile was unforgettable. She reached the school parking lot after a while.

The school was large, though old, yet beautiful, surrounded by trees and plants.

In the morning, many students walked into the school, laughing and talking.

Bella’s old red Chevrolet pickup stood out, and she, in her brown hooded coat, got out, attracting attention from other students.

Some girls glanced at her pickup, laughing mockingly.

Bella didn’t mind, walking with her black backpack. A dark-skinned student beside a blond girl glanced at Bella, impressed, saying, “Nice car.”

Looking at Bella, he added.

Bella brushed her hair, saying "Thank you," and walked on.

The blond girl beside the dark-skinned boy smacked him, saying, “That’s enough.”

The boy didn’t explain, hands in pockets, watching Bella.

He wasn’t mocking her; he genuinely wanted to know her.
