Hero? Are You Worthy?
Chapter 877 - 3, 12000 words)
Between the Second Generation Jie Luo and Rose Vesper, there was always a rather delicate state.
What Rose Vesper felt from the Second Generation Jie Luo was a strong attraction, seemingly possessing something that Rose Vesper lacked, like a tempting fragrance drawing Rose Vesper closer...
This had nothing to do with the allure granted by the Evil God on Jie Luo.
In comparison, the Second Generation Jie Luo was more cunning. At first glance when meeting Rose Vesper, she sensed something was amiss about Rose Vesper.
In the beginning, the Second Generation Jie Luo even considered Rose Vesper as her best companion. After all, they both emitted the same aura... But once the Second Generation Jie Luo discovered the truth, her attitude towards Rose Vesper changed instantly.
Rose Vesper remained a member of the former Hero Team, and the Second Generation Jie Luo outwardly continued to show favor towards Rose Vesper, but deep down, she had become intensely wary, hostile, and rejecting of Rose Vesper.
In the eyes of the Second Generation Jie Luo, Rose Vesper had already become a tool left by the Evil God in the human world, a nail inserted by the Evil God beside herself to monitor and control her.
Perhaps every move she made had already been communicated to the Void by Rose Vesper.
From that time, the Second Generation Jie Luo started consciously distancing herself from Rose Vesper, maintaining a façade of gentleness while ensuring Rose Vesper was never involved in any important matters.
This idea had long taken root in the heart of the Second Generation Jie Luo.
Everyone has an obsessive side, and once a certain belief is formed in the heart, it is difficult to change.
The Second Generation Jie Luo was no exception.
Upon hearing that Rose Vesper ventured into the Demon Territory and Endless Sea to prepare a Resurrection Technique for her, the Second Generation Jie Luo felt not the slightest bit of gratitude but instead a surge of doubled anger and venom.
What a ridiculous Resurrection Technique.
The true purpose of this woman was only one—to bind his soul and then sacrifice it to the Evil God in the Void.
She knew this, she had always understood.
A woman like Rose Vesper, whose body carried the dirty and filthy blood of the Evil God, doing such a thing did not surprise the Second Generation Jie Luo in the least.
Moreover, those six crimson chains directly entwined around him, trying to bind his soul away from this shell. If not for his soul being highly fused with the Demon King Nage, and extraordinarily closely linked to this body, Rose Vesper might really have succeeded.
It seemed he opened his gaping jaws, gnawing the chains off one by one.
But the danger, horror, and difficulty involved were only known to the Second Generation Jie Luo and Demon King Nage.
It was a true line between life and death.
She had already faked her death to escape, yet she was still unwilling to let him go. She truly was a terrible, vicious woman.
What disgusted the Second Generation Jie Luo the most was Rose Vesper, who had done so many shameless things, yet still put on an innocent, pure facade, even deliberately displaying deep concern and love for him.
Look at that posture, hands clasped to her chest, eyes large and watery, blinking at him, with a layer of mist veiling her eyes.
Ugh...
Even though she hadn't eaten anything for a long time, the urge to vomit was particularly strong now.
Could it be that this woman still thought he didn't know her true nature?
Pretending this way to get close to him, to take his life when he wasn't paying attention?
Foolish.
The self-proclaimed wise Second Generation Jie Luo felt she had completely seen through Rose Vesper's plan.
The intense hatred even contorted her face, her gaze filled with heated glaring at Rose Vesper.
At this moment, Rose Vesper herself was in a quite peculiar state too. On one hand, she was excited that Jie Luo was still alive, and on the other hand, she was amazed that Qin Chu actually stood up for her, attempting to clear the misunderstanding with Jie Luo.
What on earth did this guy want to do?
At that instant, Rose Vesper even had the illusion as if this Qin Chu was truly a good person.
For the first time, a small guilt emerged in her heart for her plan to harm Qin Chu and resurrect Jie Luo.
Of course, this guilt only lasted a brief moment before it vanished.
Rose Vesper knew that even if she could do it over again, even knowing that Qin Chu was quite a good guy, she would make the same choice, for in her heart, Jie Luo was the most important.
For Jie Luo, she could sacrifice everything.
And the fiery gaze that Jie Luo cast upon her, Rose Vesper took as a call of love.
A powerful impulse surged within her chest, wanting to rush into Lord Jie Luo's arms immediately, to let Lord Jie Luo gently pat her head and say, "You've suffered during this time."
Just one gentle comfort, and all the pain and suffering she endured during this long period would vanish without a trace.
Rose Vesper even subconsciously stepped her right foot forward, just before she was about to fly over, she hesitated, her peripheral vision discreetly glancing at Qin Chu.
She certainly wasn't concerned about Qin Chu's feelings.
What she worried about was whether Qin Chu would allow her to go to Lord Jie Luo's side. Could this guy intend to take her hostage and use her to threaten Lord Jie Luo?
