Chapter 432: Chapter428-The Corruption of Leslie
Although things didn't go entirely according to plan, Leslie's descent into corruption continued.
The aura of dominance around her kept growing stronger.
However, just as this aura was about to reach its peak, it suddenly stopped.
Owen was stunned for a moment, then saw Leslie step by step walk toward him.
Her steps were slow, her beautiful eyes fixed on Owen, with a faint questioning expression on her face.
"Why? Owen, do you really want to leave me this much?"
Since appearing here, Leslie had been paying close attention to Owen's every move.
If she hadn't intervened just now, Owen might have really died at Andrew's hands.
Though she didn't understand why, she had a strong premonition-Owen must have sensed this moment in advance!
He did it on purpose!
Owen had intended to leave her deliberately!
Under Leslie's slightly questioning gaze, Owen remained silent.
This was indeed his plan, and it was one he couldn't share with Leslie.
Owen's silence caused a suppressing emotion to appear on Leslie's delicate face.
"Have you forgotten? The vow we made when we were together!"
Leslie stared at Owen, speaking each word clearly.
"You said we would never be apart. You said that, no matter what the future held, no matter whether we lived or died, we would always be together!"
As she spoke the last part, Leslie's voice trembled slightly.
She had etched Owen's promises into her heart.
Sensing a shift in Leslie's cold emotions, Owen sighed deeply and said slowly:
"I remember the promises we made. I will always remember them, but..."
He paused.
"But I don't want to keep being so outstanding that you dim your own brilliance because of me. It's unfair to you!"
"You should have been like the sun, high up in the sky, forever remembered in the long history!"
"Leslie, you should live the way you were meant to, not always compromising or hiding your light just for me!"
The more Owen spoke, the more emotionally charged his voice became.
Venus and several others who were listening to this felt a slight tremor in their hearts.
They knew that Owen and Leslie's relationship was deep, but they didn't realize it was to such an extent!
And hearing these words from Owen, Leslie's heart gave a slight twinge.
"Owen, maybe you're right, but I've always been your wife, your daughter's mother. I can proudly say I'm living a good life!"
Leslie gently reached out, as if holding fragile porcelain, and softly cupped Owen's face, rare tenderness in her voice.
"I'm happy that you're thinking of me, but I'm fine as I am now! You don't need to push me into darkness..."
Hearing this, Owen gave a pale smile.
Sure enough, his plan had been seen through by Leslie.
Owen reached out and gently grasped Leslie's wrist.
Her wrist was soft and warm.
Then, Owen saw her hand slowly move to his forehead, and he spoke softly:
"Will you see me off?"
As soon as he spoke, Owen's body seemed to lose its weight, uncontrollably falling from mid- air!
Both the previous bloody battle and the lethal attack from Loki had left severe damage on his body.
He was now at the end of his strength.n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om
As Owen's body continued to fall toward the Demon Abyss, Caesar and the others felt a flicker of joy in their hearts!
After all, the Demon Abyss, due to the Millennial Cataclysm, had undergone significant changes. The dangers within were so great that they dared not approach!
With Owen in such a half-dead state, once he fell into the Demon Abyss, it would be certain death!
Thus, seeing Owen fall into the abyss, they all let out a sigh of relief. The formidable enemy Owen was finally coming to an end.
However, they soon noticed that Leslie was standing there like a statue, frozen in place, as if her soul had left her body.
Owen's severe injuries had caused a significant emotional impact on her!
"Leslie and Owen together are a disaster. Why not eliminate both now?"
The two ancient beings from the Forbidden Zone, knowing Leslie's extraordinary talents, understood that leaving her alive after Owen's fall could be problematic. This was not their usual style.
But before they could finish their words, they suddenly noticed that Caesar, who had been present, had disappeared without a trace, leaving only his lingering soul here.
What was happening?
The two ancient beings from the Forbidden Zone immediately sensed something was wrong. After all, Caesar's battle prowess might not have been the best among the Throne Celestials, but his sensitivity to danger was unmatched by anyone.
Why had he suddenly vanished?
While confused, they suddenly felt a surge of energy. Leslie, who had remained silent up until now, unleashed an aura of dominance so overwhelming that it engulfed everyone in the
vicinity!
The terrifying aura shook the very heavens and earth. All the Throne Celestials present felt as
if they were being enslaved. Whether it was their spirits or mana, everything seemed to be out
of control.
"What's happening?"
Their attention quickly shifted to Leslie.
Leslie's original aura had already been formidable, causing them to be wary, but now, it felt
as if her power had increased tenfold!
"What should we do now?"
The two ancient beings from the Forbidden Zone immediately looked to Sargeras.
At this moment, Sargeras had no idea what had happened to Leslie.
He could only turn to the three black-robed celestial gods, who were Loki's confidants.
As Leslie's power grew significantly, the three celestial gods realized that they were no match for her. They needed to know Loki's thoughts.
The three black-robed celestial gods were aware of their thoughts, but they had already sent a message to Loki. However, they hadn't received any reply.
This left them uncertain about how to handle Leslie.
Boom!
Suddenly, as Leslie's aura reached its peak, a cold, emotionless energy began to radiate from
her.
In the midst of this overwhelming aura, Sargeras and the others shuddered, their souls
freezing in place.
"This is bad!"
The two ancient beings from the Forbidden Zone immediately recognized the danger and quickly activated their magical skills to launch an attack on Leslie, hoping to strike a fatal blow while her aura was unstable!
The two Throne Celestials attacked once again, unleashing numerous destructive magical waves, shaking the void and spreading a devastating energy.
However, just as the destructive energy reached Leslie, her icy gaze locked onto them.
Although the two ancient beings had weathered many storms, being locked in Leslie's gaze felt like their bodies were being pierced. A sense of death, unlike anything they had ever
experienced, filled their hearts.
Then, they witnessed something that shook them to their core.
The waves of energy they had unleashed turned into lifelike ice sculptures!
As Leslie looked at them, the ice sculptures shattered as if struck by a powerful force, rolling
toward them with terrifying speed.
Facing Leslie's eyes, the two ancient beings had only one thought in mind: escape!
This was their instinctive reaction to danger!
Whoosh! Whoosh!
They quickly transformed into streaks of light, fleeing toward their respective Forbidden
Zones.
Although they weren't strong enough to stand up to Leslie, they had ancient gods backing
them up!
The power of the ancient gods should have been able to protect them!
However, what surprised them was that as they reached the outer boundary of the Forbidden
Zone, the space around them showed no reaction whatsoever!
It didn't work as they had expected. The ancient gods didn't stop Leslie's fatal attack!
Sizzle!
In the next moment, a moonlight-like, cold arrow shot from behind them.
It seemed to traverse endless space and pierced the forehead of the Forbidden Zone's ancient
being.
Blood splattered everywhere.
This Throne Celestial, who had once ruled the Pure Land, was now part of history!
