Chapter 697: Chapter 661: Use My Life to Exchange for Hers (1 more update)

Dark City is collapsing!

Everyone is just trying to escape.

Austin Godfrey stares intently at the figure emerging from the dust.

Step by step, she crosses the massive trench in the middle and comes face to face with Austin Godfrey.

"She..."

Austin sees Chloe Stephens, covered in blood.

The girl lies in Len Hawthorne’s arms, like a lifeless broken doll.

Her heart aches like a needle is piercing it.

Even her breathing stops.

Len’s forehead mark is distinctly visible, and each strand of hair is snowy white.

His face also has an unexplainable stunning beauty compared to before.

But his eyes are empty.

Austin opens his mouth wanting to ask something, but he can’t get it out.

As Len walks past him, the collapsing trench behind them suddenly stops, and the other parts of Dark City also instantly cease collapsing.

Len looks down at Chloe, who is hanging by a thread in his arms. He clenches his forehead, and the blood he has been holding back finally spews out.

Sheffield City.

Taylor Family.

Yvette Foster, pregnant, leans against Adam Stephens.

Alex Stephens and Paul Wrigley were attacked by unknown assailants, and they almost lost their lives.

Now Evan Taylor is trying his best to save them, but he still cannot snatch them from the clutches of the Lord of Hell.

He can only maintain their presence for now.

Evan puts away the silver needles and turns to Adam Stephens, "Alex and Paul’s situation is unusual; they were not injured by ordinary ancient martial artists. It will take some time. If we’re lucky, they may wake up."

That is to say, they could lose their lives at any moment.

Adam clenches his fists, "Please, Elder Taylor, do your best."

"I will, but it will take some time," Evan Taylor faces this kind of injury for the first time. Every move is extremely damaging.

The opponent’s attack is bizarre.

"The Slaughter Squad has gone to track them down, and I think we should have results soon," Adam says, taking a deep breath.

"If Miss Chloe Stephens were here, there might be a better way. After all, my cultivation cannot reach that level."

Evan always thought his medical skills had reached that level, but when faced with this situation, he could do nothing.

"Chloe is in Dark City, and she will be back soon. We’ll send someone to find her..." Yvette looks at the injured Alex and chokes up.

"I’ll go into Dark City personally to find her," Alex says.

"Family leader!"

A member of the Taylor Family runs in with an ugly expression, glances at everyone, and says solemnly, "Dark City has collapsed!"

"What!"

Everyone is horrified!

Yvette’s face turns white, and she sways on her feet.

Adam steadies her, "What happened in Dark City? How could it collapse?"

"It’s not clear, but before that, there were massive tremors everywhere in Dark City. Many people ran out, and after the collapse, everything has returned to calm. However, everyone is unsure about what happened and dares not easily enter Dark City now."

After the Taylor Family member finishes speaking, Yvette tightly grips Adam’s hand, her fingertips turning white, "Adam, Chloe is still inside. Something must have happened. Go find Chloe."

"Alright, I’ll go find her right away!"

Evan Taylor rushes to say, "I’ll go with you into the city to search."

Sheffield City exit.

The Stephens Family members, as well as the people following them, are coming out.

They stare blankly at the young man who emerged with white hair overnight.

Despite the warm sunshine outside, they cannot feel any warmth.

Winter winds blow, making their bodies shiver with cold.

Evan’s face turns pale. He rushes up and says, "She, she..."

The red-eyed young man almost loses his voice as he urges with force, "Save her, no matter the cost."

Evan’s hand trembles as he touches Chloe’s pulse. The skin he contacts is cold, even colder than a dead person.

Chloe lies lifelessly in Len’s arms, completely devoid of vitality.

Len Hawthorne’s hand shook suddenly, and he could no longer feel her pulse.

She was clearly already dead.

No matter how much strength Len Hawthorne put in, he couldn’t preserve her last breath of life.

"Save her."

Len Hawthorne whispered hoarsely.

Dark blood gushed out again.

He still stared at Evan Taylor, creating a trembling feeling in one’s heart under these circumstances.

"Use my life...exchange her life for mine."

He grabbed Evan Taylor’s hand, gripped it with all his strength, almost crushing Evan Taylor’s hand.

Evan Taylor looked at the seemingly calm yet lifeless person in front of him, his heart shaken.

Austin Godfrey walked over from behind, "Use my life too. Even if you die, she won’t be willing to come back to life."

Len Hawthorne didn’t hear Austin Godfrey’s words at all, he just locked his gaze on Evan Taylor.

Evan Taylor sighed, "I am afraid I cannot change her destiny."

Despair flooded Len Hawthorne’s empty eyes.

"I will invite Old Lynch to discuss, and if it doesn’t work, we can ask the Xenos Family from Dark City or the Cooper Family from Lych City. Perhaps we can achieve it if we work together, as I cannot do it alone."

As soon as the words were spoken, a black shadow darted over.

"Meow!"

Black cat’s voice was very weak.

It lay, half-transparent, next to Chloe’s body.

It seemed that the bond had broken, but it persisted.

Finally, the black cat turned into a wisp of black smoke and vanished.

Len Hawthorne suddenly hugged the girl in his arms, also afraid that she would, like the black cat, turn into a wisp of light smoke and drift away.

Six months later.

From winter to summer.

The sun shone brightly in Sheffield City, and the streets remained bustling with life and energy.

The Stephens Family.

After the huge changes in Dark City six months ago, the Stephens Family had withdrawn their people.

Cody Stephens had been able to walk around and recover quickly during these months.

Although he had started learning about the outside world decades later than others, it was not difficult for him.

Especially after coming out of Dark City, they discovered that Cody Stephens possessed a latent talent hidden within him.

That was the so-called ancient martial talent.

As a result, he was quick at learning anything.

Apart from such good news, the Stephens Family was still enveloped in gloom.

Alex Stephens and Paul Wrigley, who were seriously injured, showed no signs of waking up, and Evan Taylor and other unparalleled doctors couldn’t find a solution for them in a short period after performing the life-changing operation on Chloe.

Currently, the three unconscious people were staying with the Stephens Family.

There was something puzzling happening to Adam Stephens.

Adam Stephens, who had a great relationship with Yvette Foster, ended up arguing with her after she gave birth.

Recently, he often spent nights outside, returning with traces of incense.

Yvette Foster went from disbelief to incomprehension.

He said he was dealing with company matters, but the Stephens Family members who accompanied Adam outside reported another situation to Pierce Stephens after returning home.

Entertainment was entertainment, but there were many accompanying drinkers.

Fortunately, no lines were crossed.

There was nothing unusual about Adam himself, and he was still the same person.

That night.

Adam drank too much again.

Upon returning home, Adam heard the crying of the child and walked to it. The icy voice of Yvette came from behind him, "Adam, what are you going to do? If you’re drunk, sober up outside before coming back. Don’t touch these two children and make them dirty."

Adam furrowed his brow, wanting to say something, but then falling silent.

Yvette clenched her fists, staring at him. "I don’t care what’s going on with you, Chloe and Alex are still unconscious right now, and even though these two children have nannies to look after them, you, as their father, have no sense of responsibility! You’re greatly disappointing me!"

A flash of anger crossed Adam’s eyes, "Enough, I’m under a lot of pressure too, and you don’t understand."

Yvette’s eyes widened slightly, filled with disappointment as she looked at Adam, who seemed to have become a different person.
