Chapter 972 The Death of Sprite
The moment Xia Shou landed, a hand reached out from the mirror tied to his waist behind him.

Xia Shou knew they only had one minute. If they couldn't kill Sprite within that minute, it would mean they had lost.

But they couldn't possibly lose. Perhaps it was because Su Weiyu's suggestion gave him plenty of inspiration. He already knew the winning strategy to defeat Sprite 100%. Now, he would try the first step. If the first step succeeded, then there would be no need to use that method.

After all, there are still variables. Even if Sprite's moves and abilities remain unchanged, Xia Shou can still sense that Sprite before entering the domain with the minister was much stronger than the current Sprite.

This power does not come from ability, but from will itself. When a person has no confusion and no doubt about what he does, that absolute confidence and decisiveness gives Spread an indescribable sense of immense pressure.

Like a sharp knife cutting through bamboo with unstoppable force, nothing can stand in its way. In the instant the knife is swung, the crack naturally extends forward, opening up the path that the blade should have taken.

But now, a slight change has occurred in Sprite. Xia Shou couldn't quite put his finger on what it was, but he knew that the change was real. If it were the original Sprite, he should have launched a slash the moment he appeared, instead of greeting him like this.

They are the enemy, what's there to say?
But this is actually a good thing for them.

A hand reached out from the mirror behind Xia Shou and hit him squarely on the back of the head.

The moment the attack hit, Xia Shou and Sprite switched positions!

A trio waltz, plus reaching the pinnacle in solitude.

Su Weiyu will launch a direct attack on him from 5,000 meters away using mirror magic. Then, by utilizing the effect of the Three-Person Waltz, his stand will also be able to launch a hit-and-run attack, thereby achieving the goal of directly swapping positions with Sprite.

By reaching the pinnacle in places where no one else is around, she transcended the limitations of social class.

Another stroke of luck was that Su Weiyu's affected spirit origin didn't become a hindrance at this critical juncture; however, the Three-Person Waltz is not a skill that is easily affected by spirit origins.

Sprite was momentarily stunned. His spatial position had been suddenly reversed, something he had never expected. As the Rift King who was above all living beings, he had never been affected by other extraordinary powers.

His power and his divinity complement each other. Without this divinity, even if he understands forbidden knowledge, even if he has the ability to cut through fighting spirit, even if his magical power is as vast as the sea, countless strange and incomprehensible supernatural forces will still affect him.

It was precisely because of his unparalleled divinity that he reached the highest pinnacle, so he never considered that he would encounter such a situation.

In an instant, half of Spreadt's head was blown apart.

In an instant, a multitude of guesses flashed through Spreadt's mind.

Does the other party have someone whose divinity surpasses that of oneself?

It's quite patient of them to hide until now before showing up.

Where is that person?

Spreadt quickly looked around, and when he saw the mirror behind him, he instinctively slashed it to pieces.

Then he was shocked to realize that the damage to his head could not be reversed!
To be precise, it's not that the injury cannot be transformed, but rather that even if the injury is transformed into a scar that never occurred, a new, identical injury will soon appear out of thin air, as if an indelible mark has been placed on him, continuously causing damage.

One second later, the effects of brain damage appeared.

Sprite staggered backward, his slashes becoming chaotic. Several extremely powerful slashes shattered the ground beneath them, and both Sprite and Xia Shou plummeted downwards.

Half of his brain had been destroyed; a normal human would have died instantly, but Sprite did not die immediately. Indeed, he was no longer a pure human.

However, Su Weiyu's attack was indeed exceptionally effective!
Sprite plummeted downwards, falling from the center of Twilight City back to the very bottom.

Xia Shou saw Sprite fall awkwardly into the rubble, only half of his head remaining. On the other half of his face was an expression between pride and self-mockery. He looked at Xia Shou and let out a cold laugh.

"I never imagined it would be this terrible."

Spreadt had imagined many ways to die, but never the possibility of being killed in a surprise attack without warning.

But faced with such a death, he felt no resentment or regret.

Instead, it's like someone who can finally put down a heavy burden, able to relax a little and not think about or care about anything.

Perhaps this is the best outcome for a king who has lost his royal dignity.

Sprite's single eye swept across the surroundings, and he spotted the few vampires still watching from a distance.

The vampires of this era... even if they lose half their heads, they can still live for a considerable period of time, enough for them to travel to the next era.

Besides, was the mirror the key to the sneak attack just now? Spright pondered for a moment, and his fighting instincts pointed him to a new path in this desperate situation. He wouldn't die immediately. Although his mind was damaged, he could still fight. As long as he killed them and forced those vampires to turn him into a vampire as well, he could delay his injuries until he reached the next era.

Just go to the present world... Yes, that way I can survive and then accomplish my named great deeds.

The serious injury I'm experiencing now is just a minor incident.

Yes, it was just a minor incident.

"Hmph, are you going to do that?"

A voice suddenly rang in his mind; he knew it all too well—it was his own voice.

Sprite smiled, collapsed into the rubble, did nothing, and stared quietly at Xia Shou with his one eye.

His lips moved, and he silently uttered two words.

Xia Shou stared intently at Sprite, noticing that Sprite had stopped maintaining the slashing domain. Without hesitation, he used the mirror magic again, and Su Weiyu's attack from five kilometers away arrived as expected.

The three-person waltz was activated for the second time.

A second headshot.

Sprite's head was smashed to pieces.

The atmosphere became eerily quiet for a moment.

Xia Shou still couldn't believe it, but he could definitely feel Sprite's life force fading away.

"Won?"

To verify this hypothesis, Xia Shou released Merlin's Shadow and tried to devour Sprite. He devoured it in one go, just like he had devoured the EX-rank monster on the lake before.

Su Weiyu nimbly sprang between the buildings, arriving at Xia Shou's side in just a few seconds.

"Killed?"

"Yeah, it's done."

It felt completely unreal, but reason told Xia Shou that it was only natural for Sprite to be defeated by them. Although it was just a brief exchange, or even just two attacks, those two attacks had already condensed all the cards they could play.

They paid a heavy price for those two punches.

"How much deeper?"

Five hundred meters.

Five hundred meters... That sinking distance is too exaggerated, Xia Shou thought to himself.

"Do you feel anything?"

"It's alright... I don't feel anything." A vague emotion flashed through Su Weiyu's mind, but it quickly disappeared.

Xia Shou took out Su Weiyu's ribs: "Hurry up and replace the ribs."

“I don’t think there will be any major problems if we don’t change it, right? I feel fine,” Su Weiyu said.

"No, change it!" Xia Shou said sternly. "The effects of a broken rib are gradual and insidious; we absolutely cannot take any chances!"

Su Weiyu shrank her neck and obediently followed Xia Shou's opinion: "Okay, let's take it apart."

Su Weiyu used her forbidden senses to observe the original state of her own life.

She saw that at the point where the invincible beast and her body made contact, something was mixed together between them. The connection between the ribs and the body was like the roots of a plant embedded in the soil. When she removed the ribs from her body, some of the roots were still broken off inside.

Is this considered pollution?
