Qis's corpse hit the ground, dead beyond any doubt. Su Xiao dismissed Demon Hunting Moment. He had already been nearly drained, and if he kept it active, he would have collapsed in two seconds, unable to move even a finger.
Amu and Baja hadn't come to help because of Qis's Dark Burial. When they first met, Su Xiao had used Apostle Eye to examine Qis's data. It was his habit before fighting a powerful enemy. The information had been incomplete, but he had detected the terrifyingly destructive ability, Dark Burial.
Qis hadn't used Dark Burial before, so Su Xiao hadn't summoned Baja and Amu to help.
Dark Burial couldn't be endured head-on. Its damage wasn't that high during the first 1.7 seconds, but after that, physical defense would continuously decline, causing its damage to skyrocket. If Amu endured the entire Dark Burial, even he would drop dead. Qis had kept this trump card exceptionally vicious.
Su Xiao hadn't endured Dark Burial head-on, but the Orphan of Resentment had. At this moment, its "corpse" lay dozens of meters away, most of its body corroded until its bones were exposed.
Amu and Baja were rapidly approaching. Just then, Su Xiao sensed that something around him had changed.
After a roar rang in his ears, Su Xiao discovered that the surrounding world had turned black and white. The only things with color were him and the Orphan of Resentment.
"You... are... strong."
The Orphan of Resentment slowly rose from the ground. If anyone claimed at this moment that it was a crazed monster, that person should be hung up and beaten.
For countless years, despite possessing the ability to speak, the Orphan of Resentment had never said a word, expressing itself only through roars. It understood Ancient God language and the Empire's language
