The head spinning high in the air still bore the wild joy and smug satisfaction from before, along with its current shock.
Some said that for the first minute after a person's head was cut off, their previous consciousness remained. At this moment, that phenomenon was clearly on display.
On Zhong Lirui's face, those disbelieving eyes slowly shifted with difficulty, looking toward her own body in the air.
Her headless body trembled as it stretched out both hands.
She could not understand what exactly was happening.
Hadn't she been chosen by a god? Hadn't Love and Desire granted her immense power?!
Didn't that mean she did not have to follow the rules, while the other side was bound by them?
Why was this happening...
Her eyes and consciousness gradually blurred. Without blood from her body to sustain it, her consciousness began to fade away along with her severed head.
Then, a voice that seemed to come from the distant horizon gave her an answer.
—What rules? I have never followed any rules.
Yes. Only now did she realize that if the other party broke the rules, she... would simply die.
She just had not expected that such power would only amount to a single blow before him...
Bang!
Lu Ce swung the flat of his axe, directly batting the blood-spurting headless corpse away and keeping it out of his personal space. He cried out in disgust:
"Hey, stay away from me!"
"Don't splash blood on me..."
He casually flicked the battle axe in his hand, evaporating the blood on it, as if the other party had insisted on using her blood to contaminate his weapon.
Although the Extreme Path Battle Axe still gave off an incredibly powerful aura, one on the level of a divine artifact, it clearly seemed lifeless.
