Chapter 164: The Despair of Wen Xu
Wen Xu and the others stood frozen in shock, their gazes fixed on Qin Xian, who was now surrounded by a dense Void aura. Their expressions were filled with fear and disbelief.
Qin Xian⊠was actually a Void Overlord?! How was that even possible? How could a human possess a Void-based class?
It was only at this moment that they suddenly recalledâQin Xian was a Dual-Class Holder!
However, all this time, everyone had focused solely on his first class, never once considering what his second class might be.
Now, there was no more time to dwell on these thoughts. The [Ancient Godâs Pest] had firmly ensnared Wen Yu, its grotesque tendrils piercing into her body, unleashing a terrifying corrupting force that slowly eroded her mind.
It was turning her into Qin Xianâs slave. The agonizing pain spread through every fiber of Wen Yuâs beingânot just physically, but mentally as well.
As the Supreme Commander of the Eastern Military, one of the greatest warriors of humanity, Wen Yu possessed an unparalleled willpower.
Yet even she was unable to withstand such torment. The suffering was too extreme. Her screams of agony filled the air as her entire body convulsed uncontrollably.
âNOâ!!!â Watching this nightmare unfold, Wen Xuâs heart boiled with uncontrollable fury.
To him, his sister Wen Yu was the most important person in this world. And now, watching her suffer under Qin Xianâs merciless hands, how could he not go insane with rage?!
Wen Xu roared madly, charging toward the [Ancient Godâs Pest]. With his sword gripped tightly, he slashed down with all his might!
[Battle Roar]: Releases a powerful shout, intimidating enemies and lowering their combat abilities while boosting alliesâ morale.
[Unyielding Will]: Increases attack power by 50% for 20 seconds.
[Sanctuaryâs Blessing]: Attacks infused with Holy Light damage, with a chance to deal an additional 3% of the targetâs max HP as magic damage.
Wen Xu unleashed every skill he had, pouring all his strength into shattering the [Ancient Godâs Pest] and rescuing his sister.
And he wasnât alone. Li Ling, Xu Taichu, and Zhao Haoran all launched their own attacks, desperately trying to free Wen Yu.
But they were too weak.
Wen Xu was talentedâhis SS-Rank Holy Templar class was considered one of the strongest knight classes, second only to Qin Xianâs Oracle Knight.
However, he was only Level 30. His attacks couldnât even scratch the protective barrier of the [Ancient Godâs Pest], let alone break it.
Not to mention, Qin Xianâs side was filled with powerful Qin family elites, watching coldly.
BOOMâ!!!
Wen Xuâs blade struck the barrier, but it failed to leave a mark. At this moment, a deep sense of powerlessness filled Wen Xuâs heart.
âNOâ!!! LET GO OF MY SISTER, QIN XIAN! LET HER GO!â His eyes were bloodshot, his rage and despair spilling out in his roars.
He could only watch helplessly as Qin Xian stood above Wen Yu, his tendrils wrapping around her slender form, enslaving her bit by bit.
In Wen Xuâs eyes, his strong, noble, and dignified sister was being tormented, broken by Qin Xianâs ruthless hands!
Wen Yuâs screams continued, her eyes rolling back as her consciousness waveredâit was as if she were completely broken.
After all, the [Ancient Godâs Pest] was an ability capable of inducing unspeakable horror.
Even the Eternal Queen Marika, a Primordial Deity who had fought against the Void for over ten thousand years, had succumbed to the mental collapse brought by this very power.
She had lost her mind, becoming the slave of the Voidâs First ThroneâThe Void Empress. How could a mere human like Wen Yu possibly resist?
Her screams were like daggers stabbing into Wen Xuâs soul, tearing his heart apart. To him, this was the cruelest torment imaginable.
âQIN XIAN, RELEASE MY SISTER!! I SWEAR IâLL KILL YOU!â
âEVEN IF IT COSTS MY LIFE, I WILL KILL YOU!!!â His madness reached its peak, his willpower burned like steel, his entire being consumed by his desperate struggle.
He wanted to push himself beyond his limits, to unleash 200% of his power and save his sister. But in the end⊠it was all futile.
The gap in strength was simply too vast. Willpower alone could never overcome the brutal reality of absolute power.
The Qin familyâs elite warriors looked on expressionlessly, watching as Wen Xu struggled hopelesslyâlike an ant trying to move a mountain.
But so what? An ant would always be an ant. And a mountain would forever remain unshakable.
CRACKâ!
Wen Xuâs greatsword shattered in his hands. As if all his strength had been drained, he collapsed to his knees, his body trembling.
His eyes widened in horror as he watched Wen Yuâs consciousness fading, her mind disintegrating into nothingness.
The pain in his heart was so immense that it felt impossible to breathe. He could do nothing. A deep, soul-crushing despair settled over Wen Xuâs heart.
It was a pain that no words could describe. He hated Qin Xian, but more than that, he hated himself.
If only he hadnât been so blinded by love. If only he hadnât rushed to save Gu Anran. His sister would never have fallen into the Qin familyâs trap.
Tears streamed down his face, his hands clenched into fists as he knelt in utter despair. Beside him, Li Ling, Zhao Haoran, and Xu Taichu stood frozen, their faces filled with helplessness.
They didnât know what else they could do. Meanwhile, Gu Anran had already collapsed in tears, sobbing uncontrollably.
She finally understood⊠this was all her fault. If she had never trusted Tang Siyuan, things never would have ended up like this.
âWen Xu, Iâm sorry⊠Iâm so sorry!â Gu Anran ran to Wen Xuâs side, staring at his broken figure.
She felt nothing but overwhelming guilt and regret.
Then, she turned to Qin Xian, her eyes red and swollen with tears.
âQin Xian⊠please⊠Please let Wen Yu goâŠI beg you!â Her voice trembled as she knelt before him, desperate and broken.
âIâll do anything! Even if it means becoming your slave instead!â
