Runeterra: I actually know a little bit about everything

But it seems it's all too late.

The moment that figure appeared, the Netherworld Blade, gleaming with a purplish-black light, shot out from his arm and pierced Malzahar's abdomen!

Chapter 161. Our father, Sadin, has the appearance of a god!

In the deep, dark cavern illuminated by purple light, this sudden scene instantly drew the attention of everyone present.

Zuo Chi stared in surprise at the figure that had suddenly appeared ahead. What was going on? Was someone here to steal a kill?!

Zuo Chi's gaze lingered on the black blade that had pierced Malzahar's abdomen. If he was not mistaken, this should be the Nether Blade that Aatrox had mentioned, the one that had pierced the Heart of the Void, and also the weapon of the once-ascended general Horlock.

[Target Artifact: Blade of the Underworld!]

Rank: Half-step Mythical level!

Special Note: This weapon once belonged to the ascended god Horlock, who used it to pierce the Heart of the Void and end the Void War. It deals an additional 150% damage to Void creatures!

Looking at the introduction to the Netherworld Blade that appeared before him, Zuo Chi couldn't help but feel a little alarmed.

Zuo Chi originally thought that the Netherworld Blade was at most a high-level legendary grade, which was the same level as Aatrox and Zolani's original body.

However, Zuo Chi still underestimated the level of the Netherworld Blade.

Half-step mythical level, even higher than the original rank of Biatox. Could it be because he was tainted by the power of the Void Heart?

However, none of this was what attracted Zuo Chi's attention the most. What caught Zuo Chi's eye the most was the last sentence of the special note: "An additional 150% damage bonus against void creatures!"

The last time I saw an extra damage bonus was with Cyrilda's Resentment, when that legendary weapon gave Lissandra a very high extra damage bonus.

Now, this Blade of the Underworld is far more outrageous than Berylda's resentment.

This must be a special gift from heaven to this divine artifact after the end of the Void War.

In addition, the current master of the Underworld Blade

A strange sense of relief appeared in Zuo Chi's eyes, because he knew that Kasha's last wish would finally be fulfilled.

With the blade of the underworld piercing his abdomen, Malzahar let out a painful roar and turned his head sharply to look at the figure behind him.

"It's you!"

Behind Malzahar, Kassadin's body was completely shrouded in strange equipment, even his face was completely covered by a special breathing system.

Clearly, this is not the first time Malzaha and Kassadin have met.

Throughout the years, Kassadin had made numerous attempts to kill Malzahar, the Void minion who had harmed his family, but to no avail.

As the representative of the Void on the land of Icathia, Malzahar's power has reached an extremely terrifying level. He has even nearly killed Kassadin on many occasions.

Fortunately, the Nether Blade in his hand granted Kassadin the ability to walk through the void, allowing him to escape from seemingly insurmountable danger time and time again.

Facing Malzahar's agonizing cries before him, Kassadin's eyes, hidden behind his mask, were filled with the extreme madness of revenge.

He roared in a hoarse, slightly trembling voice, "Malzaha, when you were torturing my wife and daughter, did you ever think of this day?!"

In the years since his daughter and wife were swallowed by the Void, Kassadin has lived a life filled with hatred.

He abandoned everything about being human, including social interactions and daily life. With his mortal body, he ventured deep into the void, relentlessly hunting void creatures and followers of the Void God Cult.

You could even say that the reason he's still alive is so that he can kill the person in front of him with his own hands!

The black light on the Nether Blade in his hand grew even more intense. Kassadin gripped Malzahar's nape with one hand, and the Nether Blade, piercing Malzahar's body, twisted and writhed, wantonly destroying Malzahar's human body.

Soon, a huge hole appeared in Malzahar's abdomen. If the blade of the Netherworld Blade had not been relatively slender, he would probably have been cut in half at the waist.

However, right at the torn flesh and blood wound of Malzahar, Zuo Chi saw many slender purple void worms. These earthworm-like purple worms were wriggling their bodies frantically, seemingly trying to repair Malzahar's body again.

Not only that, Zuo Chi also saw Malzahar's rapidly withering body and heard his equally frenzied roar.

"Though I dwell in the void, I am immortal!"

The moment Malzahar finished speaking, the dark purple cloak that had been covering his head was blown off, revealing the scene beneath it to Zuo Chi and Kassadin.

Zuo Chi had initially thought he would see an ugly human man, but what he saw before him made him realize that he had underestimated the extent to which Malzahar had been assimilated by the Void!

Malzahar's once human head was now completely hollow, filled with Void Worms shimmering with purple light. Seemingly aware of the damage his body was enduring, these Void Worms were still writhing violently.

Just as Kassadin was about to draw the Nether Blade and stab it into Malzahar's body once more, the worm in Malzahar's head began to expand rapidly. Then, several thick purple tentacles burst out of his head, which had become the vessel for these tentacles!

A purple tentacle pierced straight towards Kassadin's arm, where he wore the Netherblade, while several other tentacles aimed for Kassadin's forehead. These tentacles intended to threaten Kassadin with serious injury or death to force him to withdraw the Netherblade.

This sudden turn of events caused Kassadin's body to tremble violently. A look of surprise flashed in his eyes; he clearly hadn't expected this to happen.

But soon after, that surprise was replaced by relief and liberation.

Kassadin didn't even take any defensive measures, nor did he retreat as the tentacles had predicted. Instead, he instantly turned his Netherworld Blade and thrust it towards Malzahar's head.

He might be able to abandon the attack in order to escape unscathed, but what would happen after that?

He didn't want to live this wretched life anymore, this life tormented by longing and hatred every day!

Kassadin's muscles were completely tense at this moment; he had to make sure he could trade his life for Malzahar's!

This was the only and last thing he could do as a father and a husband for his deceased daughter and wife!

Previously, Kassadin only thought about one thing every day: avenging his wife and daughter.

This was the closest he had ever come to his goal, and he had to consider whether this was his only chance in his life!

Kassadin never hesitated whether to continue living or to die to achieve his sole purpose.

In the dimly lit cave, oppressive black and purple light streaked across the sky as the Netherworld Blade and the Void Tentacle simultaneously pierced each other's vitals. Without a doubt, both would perish in this attack.

The blade and tentacles drew ever closer to each other's heads, and a look of madness flashed in both of their eyes.

Looking at the purple light that completely filled his eyes, Kassadin slowly closed them.

In that brief instant, scenes from his life flashed through his mind.

As a child, he grew up begging; as an adult, he escaped death several times by helping desert explorers distract void creatures; later, he settled in a valley village in Icathia, where he had a beautiful and virtuous wife and a lovely daughter.

He originally thought that his difficult and ordinary life had finally ushered in the dawn of hope, and that he would spend the rest of his life in this hard-won happiness. However, the world always seems to like to bring suffering on those who are already living in suffering.

Just as he went out to escort merchants again, he lost everything he owned.

His wife, his daughter, his village, everything he had, was swallowed up by the void.

He waited ten long years for this day to avenge his wife and daughter!

Now, all the suffering of the past will come to an end at this moment.

"puff!"

The satisfying sound of a blade piercing flesh filled the air. Kassadin knew that his Nether Blade had pierced the head of Malzahar, the Void Hound, and he was doomed!

At the same time, Kassadin could hear the swift sound of wind breaking from ahead, and he knew that the tentacles had arrived in front of him.

Next, it was his turn. His wife and daughter had been waiting for him for so long; it was time to go and see them.

next moment.

"Oh!"

A dull rumble suddenly sounded in front of Kassadin, but the death he expected did not come.

Kassadin opened his eyes with some suspicion and looked ahead. When he saw what was in front of him, he was suddenly stunned.

Because right in front of him stood a tall and imposing figure, the very young man who had just been controlled by Malzahar's Grip of the Underworld.

At this moment, Zuo Chi stood straight in front of Kassadin, his arms now fully transformed into blue-gold star shapes, and he had grasped all the purple tentacles that were about to pierce Kassadin in his hands.

His attack was blocked, and the tentacles were struggling frantically, but no matter how much they struggled, they could not move an inch from Zuo Chi's hand.

Zuo Chi grabbed Malzaha by the neck with one hand and pulled at the tentacles with the other.

Immediately afterwards, the muscles on Zuo Chi's arm taut, the blue-gold stars shone with dazzling golden light, and an incomparably powerful force erupted from his arm.

"Tear!"

Under Kassadin's watchful gaze, Zuo Chi forcefully ripped all the tentacles and their roots out of Malzahar's head!

As the tentacles left Malzahar's body, his body deflated rapidly, like a shriveled balloon.

The tentacle in Zuo Chi's hand was still struggling violently.

After throwing Malzahar's body to the ground, Zuo Chi unleashed a torrent of runic magic from the arm holding the purple tentacle.

The dazzling red light gradually descended along Zuo Chi's arm. The moment it touched the tentacles, a piercing burning sound followed, and the tentacles were completely enveloped in runic magic.

Before long, these tentacles were completely burned away by the runic magic, leaving no trace.

After doing all this, Zuo Chi turned around and looked at Kassadin behind him.

Why didn't you avoid it?

Kassadin gently shook his head at Zuo Chi's gaze, which held no hostility whatsoever.

“My children and wife died at Malzahar’s hands. My only purpose in life was to avenge them. Now that I have avenged them, I have no reason to live anymore.”

Zuo Chi sighed inwardly and asked softly, "Why are you so sure that your wife and daughter are dead?"

Kassadin looked at Zuo Chi, his eyes filled with sorrow:

"I witnessed firsthand the village turn into a wasteland of yellow sand, the entire village swallowed by the void. How could my wife and daughter have survived? Undeniably, I used to share your belief that perhaps they really weren't dead."
