Chapter 590: Chapter 562: Li Xinmei’s Ambush

Holding the Red Moon in his hands, Li Chen’s expression grew solemn.

Gently pulling out a section of the scabbard, Li Chen could feel a strange power circling around the Red Moon, a power that was extremely malevolent.

Merely by grasping the handle of the Red Moon for a moment, Li Chen felt that malevolent power incessantly burrowing into his body.

Moreover, this was happening without him having fully drawn the Red Moon.

"This indeed is a Demon Weapon..."

Looking at the Red Moon, Li Chen’s facial expression began to change.

For Li Chen right now, what he desired most was power. Though the Red Moon was peculiar, he seemed to have no other choice at this point.

He could sense the sword’s bizarre nature, and if he used it over an extended period, perhaps he would also be contaminated by the malevolent aura within it.

After Andy possessed the Red Moon, he indeed became much stronger, but at the same time, Li Chen could feel that Andy seemed to have become somewhat mentally disordered.

It was only by clinging onto his hatred for himself that Andy managed to retain his lucidity; otherwise, no one knew what Andy might have become.

"However, there’s no time now." A resolute look flashed in Li Chen’s eyes.

After giving a nod to the people in the village, Li Chen immediately left the forest and headed for the village outside.

There, a helicopter was waiting quietly on a flat expanse of land.

"Let’s go! To Dongyang City!"

As soon as he boarded the helicopter, Li Chen spoke decisively.

Dongyang City.

"Guess, when will he come?" Li Xinmei stood beside Lin Yi with a sly smile on her face and whispered.

Lin Yi remained silent.

Deep down, she was feeling very conflicted.

She didn’t want to die, but likewise, she didn’t want Li Chen to come to save her because that would mean he would be dragged down by her.

But Lin Yi also knew that Li Chen would definitely come.

Because he was her man, a man who would stand tall and unyielding!

If he truly didn’t come, then he wouldn’t be Li Chen.

"Not speaking? If you won’t speak, I’ll call him."

With a laugh, Li Xinmei took out a new phone and dialed Li Chen’s number.

"Hello, my dear Lord Nether King, where might you be now?" Li Xinmei giggled, her expression indescribably sly.

"I’m in Dongyang." After a long pause on the other end, Li Chen’s voice came through.

"Oh, you really do care about your woman. It’s not even dark yet, and you’re already here," Li Xinmei said with a laugh.

"Enough talk, tell me your location," Li Chen said calmly.

"Don’t rush, we have plenty of time," Li Xinmei spoke with a chuckle. As an Avenger, her mentality had become completely twisted.

And now she could hardly even be considered human; thus her temperament had grown even more maniacal.

She reported a location unhurriedly and then promptly hung up the call.

The place they were at was an old abandoned warehouse on the outskirts of Dongyang City. It had been deserted for a long time and was rarely visited by anyone, making it the perfect spot chosen by Li Xinmei for the ambush.

Originally, Li Xinmei thought she would have to wait for quite a while.

But to her surprise, it was only after a short while that Li Chen appeared outside the warehouse.

"Li Chen, you sure got here fast," Li Xinmei said as she immediately moved to Lin Yi’s side upon seeing Li Chen outside the warehouse.

"Let her go. If you want to settle anything, come at me," Li Chen said with a grave voice. "I came here alone, and you should know that killing her serves no purpose. Your enemy is me."

"No purpose?" Li Xinmei looked at Li Chen and suddenly burst out laughing. "How can you say there is no purpose? Isn’t she also one of my enemies?"

"If it weren’t for her, none of this would have happened today. It’s not just you who is my enemy, she is too!"

The expression on Li Xinmei’s face suddenly turned ferocious as she looked at Li Chen: "Of course, seeing your pained expression is my greatest pleasure."

"You would be in pain if she died, wouldn’t you?" With those words, Li Xinmei reached out her hand toward Lin Yi’s neck.

"Now, I’m going to strangle her right in front of your eyes and revel in the sight of your desperate, tormented expression! Just like when I watched helplessly as the Li Family was annihilated by you! Hahahaha!"

Li Xinmei laughed maniacally, ready to make her move.

"No!!" A fierce roar erupted from Li Chen’s mouth, and without a moment’s hesitation, he charged at Li Xinmei instantly.

However, at that moment, a cold smirk flickered at the corner of Li Xinmei’s mouth.

With the hand she had kept behind her back, she gently pressed a button on a remote control.

Boom!!!

An immensely terrifying wave of heat erupted at the entrance of the abandoned warehouse in an instant.

The epicenter of the explosion was precisely where Li Chen had just been standing.

Lin Yi was immediately blown away by the shockwave and slammed heavily onto the ground behind her.

As for Li Xinmei, she stood motionless in her spot, with the hot winds brushing through her hair as if she were completely impervious to them, her gaze cold and detached.

"This overcharged explosive is powerful enough to shred steel to pieces in an instant. Even if you’re formidable, at the heart of this explosion, you only have one fate: death", Li Xinmei cackled madly as she watched the explosion’s site.

"Aren’t you very strong, Li Chen? Aren’t you the Nether King, the Main God? Didn’t you annihilate my entire Li Family? But in the end, don’t you still die at my hand? Hahahahaha!!" Her face twisted manically as she erupted in crazed laughter.

Lin Yi sat on the ground, powerless, staring at the rising dust and debris from the site of the explosion with a vacant gaze, as if something had been violently carved out of her heart.

Tears streamed uncontrollably down her cheeks.

"Li Chen... why are you so foolish? Why did you come here to die? Why?! Why come to your death?!!"

"Huh?"

Just then, Li Xinmei’s brows suddenly furrowed.

The explosion had brought with it a terrifying level of heat, but for some reason, the heat from the blast seemed to disappear after only a moment.

The air was no longer scorching hot, and inexplicably, it even felt a bit chillingly cold.

A sinister aura suddenly spread throughout the space.

Li Xinmei’s eyes became serious.

That’s because she saw a figure emerging from the dissipating smoke and dust.

This figure, dragging a blood-red blade in hand, came forth from the smoke that had not yet completely cleared, and she could see a pair of eyes, just as blood-red as the blade, staring coldly at her.
