Chapter 470: Chapter 101 - Extreme Cold_4

The metal railing restored itself to its original state.

Liu Zhenhan watched helplessly as the birdcage in front of him refused to break, Avril was only ten steps away, yet he could not reach her. His face had turned pale with a sense of despair.

"I will give both of you one last chance to speak." The Mermaid King Beckenbauer gestured with a "please" pose. "We, mermaids, always provide a last confession opportunity for those who are going to die."

Like a puppet on strings, the cage moved itself in front of the jade table where Avril laid, by the Mermaid King’s control.

This was an instance of absolute self-assurance, complete confidence.

Finally at Avril’s side, Liu Zhenhan could no longer suppress his tears; he reached through the bars and embraced Avril, tearing off those tough seaweeds that were binding Avril. Even with Liu Zhenhan’s strength, it took effort to remove them.

The gap in the bars barely allowed him to get his arm through. His flesh got torn in the process, but holding Avril through the bars was worth the pain.

Guoguo and the parrot were also sticking their heads out through the bars.

"Where’s your left hand, Richard?" Avril’s lips were trembling violently, looking at Liu Zhenhan’s amputated arm with disbelief. Meanwhile, Guoguo and the parrot were gently stroking her beautiful hair.

"To get through the Starry Sky Gate, I had to shed some weight. There might have been other ways, but I didn’t have the time." Liu Zhenhan, holding Avril with one hand, gently stroked her forehead and gave a bitter smile.

"Why... Why... You’re such a fool..." Tears flooded Avril’s eyes.

"Even if I lost one arm, I still have another. But without you, I won’t find another Avril." Liu Zhenhan gently patted Avril’s hair with a soft smile.

"Richard..." Avril drew her arms around his neck tightly, clasping him through the metal bars.

"Avril..." Richard kissed her hair passionately, "I’m here now, nobody can take you away from me."

"Fool, we can’t escape," Avril spoke bitterly, "We are out of options, Richard. Even as a Dragon Sacrifice, you cannot escape from so many powerful beings here."

"Then let’s die together," Liu Zhenhan stood up straight.

"Don’t harm the Princess! Your Majesty, please spare her... Your mercy, I beg you... She is your daughter... Avril is your most beautiful daughter... She looks just like the late Queen..." Someone choked out.

Liu Zhenhan turned to look and saw Whale Warrior Figo, who was tied up like a dumpling, crying out desperately to the Mermaid King.

He was the only one pleading for Avril. The faces of all other mermaids were cold and determined.

"Figo! Shut up! Your first plea has already cost you your title. This time, your capital crime cannot be pardoned! Defying the king for a second time, I can sentence you to death right now!" yelled Prince Similian at the Whale Warrior.

"The Princess is like a daughter to me, raise her since she was little. If she dies, you might as well kill me, too!" Figo retorted defiantly, veins throbbing on his forehead.

Upon hearing Figo’s words, a glint of tears appeared in the eyes of the Mermaid King Beckenbauer. He lifted his head, regaining his cold expression when he lowered his head again.

"Richard! Don’t harm my family." Avril tightly gripped Liu Zhenhan’s remaining hand, which was seething with a potent power and rage, a power and rage that could destroy everything.

"Promise me! I have never begged you for anything! This is my first and only request." The sincerity in Avril’s eyes broke Liu Zhenhan’s heart, a plea he couldn’t possibly deny.

"I promise," Liu Zhenhan gave a bitter smile, looking at everyone present, "Just look at all these powerful figures. Can I really harm them? Avril..."

"A Dragon Sacrifice? This Orc? Are my eyes blocked by a hurricane?" A mocking laughter rang out.

"Even if he is the Dragon Sacrifice, does he have a chance to chant a spell?" The Eight-Armed Naga Elder sneered, "Isn’t the Silent Spell of our Naga enough?"

A celestial melody began, as a female Siren started singing the "Soul-controlling Song". Her voice was pleasant and rapid. In an instance, a "Soul-controlling Aura" was directed at Liu Zhenhan. The Siren’s attack was straightforward, she was intending to control Liu’s soul directly out of her fear of the Sacrifice.

"This mere orc threatning us, the three leaders of the Sea Clan, is truly ridiculous." The female Siren Duchess Diana shook her head with a smile.

As she was speaking, two light rings floated above Liu Zhenhan, who was within the ’Soul-controlling Aura’. One was bloody red with strange characters and the other was white, emanating a bitter chant. They were just formed by illusory light rays, but they felt very real. The circles glowed once before a golden Thorn Bird appeared within the glowing rings. It flapped its wings slightly, and the two halos dissipated into the ripples of the water.
