Abyss Summoner

Chapter 570 - 557: Death by Asphyxiation

"Winner, live! Loser, die!"

What Chen Feng intends now is to make these two people kill each other, with only one survival spot available. Such an idea is truly vicious.

Retribution.

In the past month, Chen Feng hasn’t just been absorbed in the Soul Stone. Information from Yan Xiu and Su Tan has already been sent to him, most of which pertains to these big shots’ preferences and secrets.

Among the intelligence, Chen Ligang is the most cruel, often locking father and son or mother and daughter together, claiming that killing the other would grant a chance at survival. Initially, the close relatives lacked the courage to act, kneeling and desperately kowtowing to Chen Ligang, but this man was already sick, declaring that if no winner was decided within five minutes, he would release giant insects to bite them both to death.

Under such circumstances, blood relatives reluctantly made a choice, mostly one of the parents, who would personally end their own life to preserve the child’s.

Although the child survived, witnessing the death of a close relative in a pool of blood left them on the brink of collapse, living out their days like a corpse.

Precisely because of this, Chen Feng set up this gamble. The strong have the right to create games, and in Chen Feng’s eyes, Chen Ligang has instead become a toy in this cage, left to be kneaded at will.

"Make us fight each other?" Upon hearing Chen Feng’s words, Chen Ligang’s expression changed drastically: "You have no integrity, you promised to let me live, yet you go back on your word. Doing this, how can you make your subordinates wholeheartedly serve you?"

Worthy of being one of the giants of the Gorge Gate.

In a few short words, Chen Ligang pinpointed the issue, perhaps from the moment he knelt down it was a trap he set. Survival was indeed the goal, but if Chen Feng truly reneged, he could use this as a breakthrough point to highlight the root of Chen Feng’s betrayal.

Chen Ligang’s only purpose is to divide the loyalty of Flora and the others. Faced with such unfaithful loyalty, their devotion might inevitably waver. Yet, things are unpredictable, Chen Ligang never imagined these strong individuals are not Chen Feng’s subordinates but actual slaves!

Having witnessed the pointless pleas in those cages, Chen Ligang knows clearly that, in Chen Feng’s eyes, he is nothing but livestock, devoid of any dignity. Hesitating a few more seconds, should Lin Tianxiu truly be persuaded, then there would be no path left!

Chen Ligang’s gaze was grim as he let out a strange, rattling laugh. Ready to go all out, the next second he suddenly jumped up, puffed his cheeks, and a massive sound wave blasted towards Chen Feng. Simultaneously, he twisted his body, lunging towards the Inferior Demon.

He needed a hostage.

Elwin and Flora had already demonstrated considerable strength, making Chen Ligang rather apprehensive, while the Bottom-dwelling Demon Fish was enormous, and the Undead Mage stood before Chen Feng. After consideration, the little girl with the Lolita face seems the least harmful, so he set his sights on her!

Chen Ligang’s moves were swift, violently darting towards the Inferior Demon, moving like roaring thunder, with lightning speed. He exerted all his strength, causing some of the sand below to fly up, smashing against the coast, creating ripples.

"Lin Tianxiu, don’t hesitate. Even if we decide a winner, do you really think he will spare us? Act together, and once we escape, we’ll have a chance to survive!"

Chen Ligang roared, his body moving like a pouncing tiger, infinitely closing in on the Inferior Demon.

Lin Tianxiu in the fog perhaps sensed Chen Ligang’s intent, pondered briefly, and still opted for his suggestion. In the next second, the fog thickened, as if countless Resentful Spirits were reborn, the surroundings immediately turned hazy.

The Undead Mage’s cloak lifted without wind, raising the Bone Staff. The originally dense fog suddenly thinned significantly, as if the resentful souls were being devoured, even the howling noises dissipated considerably.

Lin Tianxiu’s so-called fog actually devours the living, generating resentment, a capability akin to Undead Magic.

Changing to an ordinary person facing such a power would find themselves entirely helpless, forced to flee with brute force, perhaps finding a glimmer of hope. But what is an Undead Mage? Evolving from a weak Skeleton into an Undead Lich, he holds absolute command over souls and the undead.

What’s it like?

It’s like a nouveau riche relying on demolition to gain millions, flaunting in a hotel, yet unaware the developer who bought his land is standing before him.

They’re fundamentally not in the same league.

The ground emitted some critical strike sounds, indicating how fiercely Chen Ligang exerted himself.

Lin Tianxiu miscalculated, but Chen Ligang completed his plan, genuinely catching the little girl’s body, holding her in his arms. Although bewildered as to why those around, including Chen Feng, showed no concern, having a hostage was enough.

"Don’t come closer. Take one more step and I will kill her..."

"Who are you? Why are you hugging me? Apart from the master, no one can hug the Inferior Demon. I dislike you... So, to please the Inferior Demon, you... should just die!"

A tender voice came from Chen Ligang’s arms, and with a crisp sound, the little girl facing away unexpectedly turned her head around.

Her body didn’t move, only the head rotated. This eerie scene left Chen Ligang utterly horrified.

"Woosh!"

The Inferior Demon’s body seemingly decomposed at that moment, stretching hands and feet forward, actually holding Chen Ligang in its embrace.

A mere moment ago, Chen Ligang confidently believed he controlled the Inferior Demon, yet the next instant he was entwined by dozens of arms. It all happened in a flash, so quick one could hardly trust their eyes.

This was far from over.

As Chen Ligang attempted to break free from the embrace, a hot sensation came from the side. Immediately, Chen Ligang caught sight of a sizzling Fireball shooting towards him!

Explosion!

At that instant, the Fire Element exploded!

In Chen Ligang’s final thoughts, he was astounded to find the little girl still in his arms. Aren’t they allies? Why, regardless of her safety, did they launch an attack?

The next instant, the Inferior Demon answered his query. Just as the Fireball appeared, the Inferior Demon burrowed into Chen Ligang’s arms, eager to dive all in, previously appearing disdainful, yet now taking initiative to embrace death more rapidly.

Chen Ligang’s mind could no longer process any thoughts, for he had already sensed a serious threat had descended upon him!

Boom!

Chen Ligang’s body suddenly ignited, his entire back torn to shreds. Most horrifying, the Fireball was spinning rapidly, revealing some bones amidst the blood and flesh.

The intense flames instantly incinerated his organs, blasting him four meters away, struggling futilely in the dirt, ultimately succumbing, breathless!
