Chapter 261
Karna felt a warmth in his heart and spoke softly.
"?"
Even as his brothers were writhing in agony on the ground, Yudhishthira, Bhima, and the others were momentarily dazed.
Your mom and my mom seem different.
Amidst the silent shock, Kama's gaze fell upon Kunti's face, and she raised her hand.
Snap!
A crisp slap rang out, Kunti covered his face in disbelief.
With Bhima charged toward Kama.
A fierce glint flashed in Kama's eyes.
Bang! The Bhima sent flying back at an even faster speed than before, crashing into the bushes and remaining motionless.
Krishna looked at Bhima lying at his feet without saying a word.
Unknown, unknown, unknown.
Whenever he thought he had revealed Hebe's pieces, his opponent would always come up with more, even more unknown, hidden pieces.
When did Hebe train this Mahadeva with the Twilight Rank?
Karna slowly withdrew his fist.
Behind her, the flames burning in the Heavenly Demon's pupils subsided once more.
Kama looked at Kunti again. "If it weren't for my daughter's soft heart, not a single person in the entire training ground would have survived."
Kunti hung his head and trembled, making terrified murmurs from his throat.
The influence of the Heavenly Demon Path is spreading.
"My daughter clearly did not humiliate you, yet your bastards dare to provoke her. What gives them the right?"
"Is it because my daughter didn't kill you all on the spot that you dare to act with such impunity?"
"And you, you just stood there, watching, without saying a word..."
The flames in the Demon King's pupils surged once more. "Fine, then I'll humiliate you all right now."
"—You whore who was played with by the Vedas gods, you bunch of self-righteous bastards."
The demon whispered blasphemous words, each one dripping with mockery, penetrating to their very bones.
Anapasrita and Sahasra were still writhing on the ground in agony, making a terrible sound of bones breaking, but no one was able to help them up.
Those vicious words reached Yudhishthira's ears, but he felt no resentment, only an endless, terrifying emptiness.
All his courage vanished in the bluish-purple flames.
Time ticked by, and the flames on the two brothers gradually died out.
Kama stared at these people with icy eyes.
Under the intimidating gaze of hers, no one dared to make a move.
"Now you can apologize to my daughter."
Kama said.
We have to apologize to Karna? This is an insult to us!
Yudhishthira had intended to say that, but Kama was simply too powerful.
I dare not despise those who are too tall and imposing.
He swallowed hard, stood up, and bowed tremblingly to Karna: "Please, please forgive our offense today..."
At this moment, Yudhishthira was filled with unease. He had no doubt that this woman, who seemed like a demon, would wreak havoc in the palace.
"I accept your apology."
Karna's voice was light and airy.
"Not enough."
The Demon King's gaze shifted to Kunti. "Lady Kunti, as the mother of these bastards, shouldn't you show some respect?"
"Mom, forget it."
Karna tugged at the Heavenly Demon's sleeve. "I really can't accept this."
The fire in Kama's eyes flickered slightly. "Very well, since my daughter says so..."
She took Karna's hand, and the two left without looking back.
The invisible pressure that had been looming over this place ever since Kama appeared finally dissipated.
Even so, the terrifying influence of the Heavenly Demon still lingers in this area.
It wasn't until more than ten minutes later that Yudhishthira was finally able to move his sore and numb limbs. He immediately helped Anapasrita and Sahasra.
The moment he touched their bodies, tears streamed down Yudhishthira's face uncontrollably.
Although Anapasrita and Sahasra are alive, their spirits have been crippled by Kama.
In reality, this means they can no longer control their bodies freely.
To put it more bluntly, they have become disabled, and completely unable to take care of themselves!
Apart from that, things like disfigurement and loss of voice are minor matters.
Immediately afterwards, Yudhishthira dragged the Bhima out of the bushes.
The big guy was only knocked unconscious by Karna's punch, and apart from becoming bald, he didn't have any other injuries.
And what about Arjuna?
Yudhishthira turned around and noticed his third brother, who had been holding the bow-drawing posture for a while and hadn't made any further moves.
Arjuna's face, body, and arms were covered in sweat—the sweat was crimson because blood was seeping from his pores.
The moment Arjuna immediately fell unconscious.
Krishna's warning had been echoing in his ears ever since.
Yudhishthira looked at Kunti: "Mother, let's take my brother back first."
This matter should not be publicized.
Kunti nodded, still shaken.
They hadn't walked far when they saw a pile of bone-white dust on the side of the road.
Yudhishthira had no intention of observing, but when they turned a corner in a corridor, they saw several similar clumps piled on the ground.
Not long after they returned to their palace, Tianshi, clad in silver crown and armor, hurriedly arrived.
To Yudhishthira's astonishment, the Tianshi Armor was now covered in burn scars, and several molten finger marks had been kneaded into a horrifying shape.
This pillar of the Kuru Dynasty had almost all of his beard burned away.
He was actually relieved when he saw the four brothers on the bed.
"Your Highness, my brothers—"
"I already know."
Tianshi stopped Yudhishthira, who was about to complain, saying, "You are truly lucky."
"Ah?"
Yudhishthira looked at his brothers, then at Tianshi, and wondered if he had misheard.
You heard me right.
Tianshi smiled bitterly, "At least you're still alive."
Almost all the nobles in the stands today were burned to death by the sudden purple flames.
Tianshi was seriously injured while protecting the king and his Kauravas.
Yudhishthira finally realized what was happening, and the remaining color on his face vanished instantly.
Those piles of bone-white ash by the roadside are the ashes of nobles who were burned by Kama.
She did show mercy; she didn't burn the rest of the audience, but only killed all the nobles who were shouting the loudest.
She really did fight her way through the entire palace to get here!
Even the Tianshi couldn't stop it!
Chapter 316 This world has gone mad!
In the quiet room, Yudhishthira and Kunti sat facing each other.
The woman sheds tears, the man frowns.
The four unlucky guys in the middle are lying in a row on the plank.
Yudhishthira always felt that this conflict came about inexplicably.
But just as doubts began to creep into his mind and he started to question everything, the sound of footsteps came again from outside the door.
They thought it was Tianshi that had been broken, but instead, standing at the door was a handsome young man with a peacock feather tucked into his hair. He wore a smile, a shepherd's flute hanging from his waist, and exuded an indescribable air of elegance and mystery, instantly winning people's favor.
"May I ask who you are?"
"You must be the eldest brother of the Pandavas, the Child of God of Dharma, Prince Yudhishthira."
The newcomer smiled and said, "I am an old acquaintance of Partha. I just foresaw that you would face this calamity, so I came to help you."
He looked at Krishna Yudhishthira suspicion.
He had never heard his younger brother mention having such an extraordinary-looking friend.
Then Krishna walked to the bedside and patted Arjuna on the chest.
"Oh!"
Arjuna eyes were tightly closed, roared and opened them, panting heavily.
"You're quite good at playing dead, Partha."
The young man wearing the golden crown smirked. "It seems he did take my words to heart."
"What a joke, I almost really died over there, Madhava."
Arjuna got out of bed complaining.
Yudhishthira asked in surprise, "Third brother, are you alright?"
He could never forget the gruesome sight of Arjuna, his body covered in blood.
"How could nothing be wrong?"
Arjuna smiled bitterly, "This technique was originally meant for fighting to the death with the enemy, but in front of the 'Heavenly Demon,' it's only fit for playing dead."
"That makes sense, after all, none of you have embarked on the Path of Ascension yet."
Krishna interrupted.
What is the Path of Ascension?
"We'll talk about that later."
Krishna shook his head and then used the same method to awaken Bhima.
However, when he approached Anapasrita and Sahasra, this seemingly omnipotent young man encountered a problem.
"What's wrong, Madhava?"
Arjuna grew anxious, "Can't even you save my brother?"
"Yes, and no."
