"Fight or die."

The broken sword was reforged, its purple flames scorching Rilfen's fur, releasing a burnt smell, while Rilfen struggled to escape in agony.

Riven wielded a greatsword with agility, and her attacks on Rilfen with the broken sword were like a dance.

But when the greatsword descended with her arm, the sword energy struck, each blow capable of causing damage over an area spanning several kilometers.

That wasn't just a simple basic attack; it was the Dance of Broken Wings.

On Rilfen 'Riven side, Riven has a huge advantage.

Because the way Rilfen was fighting at that moment made Li Ke shake his head in disbelief.

To be honest, this wolf simply wasn't willing to fight Riven to the death.

As ancient gods, Rilfen and Riven are different in strength, but the difference is not significant.

It can be said that Rilfen is almost evenly matched with Riven. Therefore, if he fights with all his might, he will eventually lose to Riven. But if he wants to kill Rilfen, Riven will have to fight for at least a few days and nights.

But here's the problem: Riven simply can't stay in Runeterra for that long.

The time she can stay is extremely limited; one Lotus Point allows the Lotus Deity to stay in the Runeterra for a maximum of two hours.

If Deity uses a lot of divine power in Runeterra, like Riven is doing now, then Lotus Points will be greatly depleted, and in the end, the time they can stay in Runeterra will be reduced.

But it's obvious that Rilfen couldn't possibly know this.

Therefore, he is both extremely angry and extremely afraid.

If a Demigod, slightly stronger than him, attacks you in a life-or-death manner, wouldn't you be afraid?

If it weren't for the fact that this Deity's aura was so unfamiliar and carried a strong scent of the Spirit Realm, Rilfen would have seriously wondered if he had offended the deity somewhere in the past!

That makes absolutely no sense!

"Enough!"

"Do you really think I have no temper? If you continue to humiliate me with this life-for-life approach, then I'll really fight you to the death!"

"You bastard, can't you just talk to me properly? Or are you really planning to fight me to the death?!"

Li Ke raised an eyebrow upon hearing this.

Rilfen, grinning Kog'Maw, had been dodging Riven's attacks. Ever since Li Ke arrived, Rilfen, who had been taking hits from Riven, suddenly stood up straight.

The giant wolf's black fur stood on end, and its eyes were filled with ferocity. It stared at Riven from afar, black energy gathering between its fangs.

"Stop! If this continues, I'll have no choice but to fight you to the death!"

Seeing this, Jin'er's eyes flashed with a sharp light, and he shouted loudly, "Alright, Rilfen, let's really fight them to the death!"

As he spoke, Jin'er flashed away, shrinking in size as well, and pecked Swain in one big bite.

For the ancient gods of Freljord, while transforming into their true forms is the most comfortable way to fight, this is a method used only when Deity fight Deity other. For example, Volibear and Ornn's battle in their true forms caused a catastrophe for Freljord.

However, this method is not suitable for use in combat against humans.

Size isn't necessarily better the bigger it is, because the Three Sisters proved this to the ancient gods during the rise of humanity.

The larger the creature, the easier it will become a target for attack.

Of the Three Sisters, the tallest, Serylda, was only a little over two meters tall. Compared to the ancient gods who were hundreds or thousands of meters tall, she was nothing short of an ant. But here's the problem.

When this ant possesses strength comparable to theirs, tearing large chunks of flesh from their massive bodies with each attack, the situation truly reverses. Because when both sides are evenly matched, the ancient gods have no way to detect a human's presence using their senses. Humans excel at concealing themselves, so the ancient gods can only observe them with their naked eyes. And what about humans?

They were the most intelligent beings in the world, so naturally they would go out of the ancient gods' sight to attack them. Over time, during the era of the Three Sisters, all the ancient gods were forced to learn one thing: how to transform.

The ancient gods shaped their bodies, shrinking them to find the size most suitable for fighting humans. Although this weakened them, the ancient gods gradually adapted to it.

Right now, Jin'er has shrunk his size and transformed into a slightly larger eagle, with a wingspan of up to five meters when it spreads its wings. Its beak gleams with silver light, and the snow-white feathers on Jin'er's body have turned into weapons in the sunlight. With a powerful flap of Jin'er's wings, it flies swiftly toward Swain.

Swain dodged the attack, calmly looking in Li Ke's direction, and said, "Li Ke, aren't you going to help me?"

"Janna, have you rested well?"

After thinking for a moment, Janna transformed into a little bluebird and perched on Li Ke's shoulder. She shook her head and said, "I don't think you need me anymore, Li Ke. I want to rest."

"Okay, then you should get some rest." Li Ke nodded, his gaze falling on the snow-white Fox in front of him.

The other person was also looking at Li Ke, or rather, she was looking at Ahri.

"You, are you also a fox?" Bai couldn't help but ask Ahri when he saw Li Ke looking at him.

She was originally supposed to fight against Jey and Rilfen, because Janna was the weakest of all the Deity, and without Bai's care and help, Janna would have been the first to be defeated.

However, because Bai was not good at fighting and had to take care of Janna, she was poisoned by Jie's snake venom, thus temporarily losing her fighting ability.

During the period when she was unable to fight, Janna fought two opponents alone to prevent them from harming her. She was repeatedly knocked out of control. If it weren't for Janna's unique abilities, she would have faced death multiple times.

Therefore, Bai was very grateful to Janna.

Right now, Janna and she are both resting. Rilfen was intercepted by Riven, while Jie was intercepted by Tristana.

The two external Deity brought by the black-haired man before him were extremely powerful, and what was most terrifying was that they fought without regard for their lives, as if they were rushing to complete a mission, which Bai found very incomprehensible.

"Yes, I'm also a fox spirit~ But I think my situation is different from yours." Ahri smiled and nodded at Bai. She continued, "I don't have a physical body. Is the reason I turned into Fox because of my memories?"

Bai nodded, raised his fox face, and said, "I sensed the powerful spiritual energy within you. Besides, we foxes can become whatever we want."

After she finished speaking, she looked up at Swain in the air and hesitated before saying, "Shall I help?"

"No need." Li Ke shook his head at Bai, then turned to Ahri and said, "Ahri, I'll have to trouble you with something. Swain is my ally."

"Okay, I'll help you, Li Ke ~" Ahri nodded.

A jade-like hand reached out, and a magic orb appeared in Ahri's palm. She gathered her pink and white sleeves, which were falling downwards, and half of her jade-like arm emerged from them, smooth and white. As she gently raised her hand, Ahri called out to the sky, "Hey~"

Upon hearing the sound, all the Demigod turned to look at Ahri, Jin'er, Swain, Rilfen, and Jie, all of whom instantly turned their gazes to Ahri.

Only Tristana and Riven instantly shut down their five senses; they practically closed their eyes the moment Ahri made her voice.

I do not listen with my ears, I do not look with my eyes, I do not smell with my nose, and I do not smell with my mouth.

Fox's move Ahri so powerful that even Ahri wouldn't be able to withstand Thresh, let alone Riven and Tristana!

As for Tristana and Riven, they are indeed Deity of the Akana faction, but Ahri is not among the Kanmei faction Deity they dislike.

Because Ahri can be considered the first Deity to appear in Soul Blossom, just like Tristana and Riven. When they were lost, Ahri appeared and tried to help them, leading them out of the shadows of the past.

They simply couldn't let go and made the wrong choice.

Therefore, they are also the most aware of Ahri's power.

The Demigod who were staring blankly at Ahri all instantly showed a dazed and confused expression on their faces.

Swain was the same; he had always given the impression of being wise and calm, but at this moment, he stared at Ahri with wide eyes, his mouth slightly open, his gaze blank and bewildered.

Until Ahri softly exhaled a fragrant breath, a faint voice broke the silence. "Go~"

The precious orb in her hand shot out and flew towards Jin'er. The orb was very small, only about the size of Tristana's head.

But at this moment, on the flying pearl, white flames could be clearly seen emerging in the sunlight—the burning flames of the soul.

Jin'er remained in a daze, while the pearl passed through Jin'er body as if it were nothing, followed by a scream from Jin'er in an instant.

The precious pearl traveled back and forth inside Jin'er's body in an instant, before returning to Ahri's hand.

When it returned to Ahri's hand, Li Ke saw with his own eyes that there was now a tiny snow eagle shadow inside Ahri's precious pearl.

Is that a piece of Jin'er's soul?

Li Ke was surprised.

"Help me, Rilfen, Je, help me!"

"Help me reclaim my soul!"

Jin'er, regaining his senses, instantly flew into a rage. His previous screams and current roar shattered the silence, and Rilfen, Jae, Swain were all instantly awakened.

When he saw large patches of Jin'er's wings beginning to fall off and his eyes filled with pain, Swain immediately flew forward.

A bloody hand reached out, unleashing demonic power that sent several streaks of crimson lightning filling the sky and striking Jin'er.

"Help me, help me!" Jin'er ignored Swain, letting the crimson lightning char his body, his eyes still fixed on the smiling pink-haired woman.

She was leisurely raising both hands, one hand holding a ball, and the other hand, with her slender fingers flicking, tapping the pearls one by one, her fingertips lightly circling the pearls, as if she had obtained something precious.

"Li Ke, this soul is really powerful," Ahri said to Li Ke with a grin.

"Will this help you?" Li Ke asked Ahri.

Ahri nodded and said with a grin, "Of course! I can use it to perfect some lost souls within the Soul Blossom, to fill in the missing piece of their souls, and to give them sentience!"

Ahri said somewhat happily.

She then looked at Jie and Rilfen.

When Ahri looked at them, Rilfen and Jae instantly retreated in terror.

Are you kidding me!

The scene of a piece of Jin'er's soul being taken away completely terrified Rilfen and Jie.

If Jin'er can't get back the piece of her missing soul, then he's truly doomed. Of course, she won't die just because she's missing a piece of her soul, but her strength will never increase again, not even a little bit.

With his soul missing, the power of the laws cannot be replenished. Why has Volibear become weaker now?

Demigod all know, it's because Volibear's soul seems to have been corrupted by something.

Seeing Rilfen and Je run away, Ahri's pretty face showed a wronged expression. She pouted and whispered, "Why... why are you avoiding me?"

She looked at Rilfen and Jie, then took a few more steps forward, passing Li Ke.

Then, Ahri bent down in front of Li Ke, and Li Ke felt his nose getting hot and his eyes getting hard to look away.

Because Ahri's entire back was exposed to Li Ke as she bent over, the curves of her lower body became even more rounded and full with the upward movement, making the clothes covering Ahri even tighter. At the hem of the skirt, her snow-white thighs... white, damn white.

"Run!"

Rilfen and Jey exchanged a glance and made up their minds, especially Rilfen, who had been momentarily distracted by Ahri's temptation when Riven slashed his head with a single blow.

He had completely lost his will to fight, because Rilfen and Ja had also sensed that Demigod was on his way.

One was an old friend they knew well, Seal Sister, while the other was a complete stranger. Therefore, the two gods concluded that the other was most likely a member of this group.

What a joke! When Ahri, Riven, Tristana appeared, Rilfen's first thought was to run away with Jeyne, because each of these three Deity was incredibly powerful, and Rilfen couldn't beat any of them in a one-on-one fight.

Jie's situation was no better than hers when facing the purple-skinned little girl. Although the little girl wasn't as fierce as the female demon she was facing and always had a smile on her face, her attacks were...

Like that pink-haired woman, it's an attack that damages the soul!

The gourd she carried on her back spewed out purple flames. Every time a ball of fire struck Jie, she would scream in agony, because it wasn't her physical body being attacked, but her soul being burned by the purple flames.

The soul's perception is hundreds of times greater than that of the physical body; even the slightest sensory sensations are amplified countless times. Therefore, even Deity cannot withstand the pain of their souls being burned!

"Jie, run!"

Rilfen's body emitted a massive black shadow as he unleashed his own laws.

Every Demigod possesses their own unique set of laws and principles.

Volibear excels at electricity, Ornn at fire, Anivia at ice, the Seal Sister at water, the Iron Boar at immortality, the Snow Fox White at sealing and healing, and the Cleanse at spitting poison.

Rilfen is the shadow.

He could hide in the shadows, and at this moment, he used his shadow to wrap around Jie's small body, hiding her in the shadows with her.

Upon witnessing this scene, Jin'er cried out in anguish, "No! Rilfen, Jie, you two bastards! Didn't you say you'd fight together?!"

"You lied to me? You dare to lie to me?!"

Rilfen gave Jin'er a cold look, a hint of disdain showing in his wolfish mouth.

Just kidding, all he cares about is Jie, and as for Jin'er, the guy who came to find him and Jie, Rilfen knows exactly what his purpose is.

He and Jie were friends, best buddies, while his relationship with Jin'er was purely based on self-interest.

"Stop him!" Li Ke shouted to Riven as he saw Rilfen disappear.

Riven frowned, about to refuse, when the lotus mark between Li Ke's eyebrows flickered, and at the same time, the dark lotus that had appeared on Riven's arm earlier also began to burn.

Riven's entire arm suddenly became burning hot, and she fell silent.

Then, she lunged at Rilfen's shadow.

He hasn't completely disappeared.

Tristana also rode on the gourd and plopped down on it.

But they all came up empty-handed.

Seeing this, Bai said from the side, "Rilfen's greatest strengths are killing and escaping. If he's determined to escape, even Ornn and Volibear can't do anything to him, unless Anivia is still around. Only Anivia can completely freeze him."

Li Ke listened and nodded.

Then, Li Ke looked at Jin'er in the air.

"Kill him," Li Ke said.

"No!" Jin'er shouted, momentarily losing her composure upon hearing Li Ke's voice.

Riven, Tristana, and Swain all attacked simultaneously.

Riven leaped high into the air, wielding her greatsword as she slashed at Jin'er's body from the right. To Jin'er's left stood Tristana, clutching her gourd and sporting an evil grin.

A huge flame burst out of the gourd, and before even Li Ke could see what was happening, the flame had already attached itself to Jin'er's body.

Swain, facing Jin'er head-on, immediately unleashed a bolt of lightning, a hint of satisfaction on his face.

Before Li Ke arrived, Swain had suffered many losses at the hands of Jin'er.

Now, this snow eagle has suffered a loss!

His soul was burned by Tristana, his body by Swain, and Jin'er had lost a piece of his soul because of Ahri. At this moment, he didn't even have the strength to resist.

With three Demigod —no, it should be said that four Demigod— attacking him, Jin'er had absolutely no ability to resist.

He doesn't even rank in the top ten among the Demigod of Freljord!

In the end, what Jin'er saw was a giant sword burning with purple flames.

"Waaaaah--"

A strange gale suddenly swept through Freljord, accompanied by gathering dark clouds and a torrential downpour accompanied by thunder.

The rain, tinged with blood, fell on every corner of Freljord, even the border regions occupied by Noxus.

Those who were drenched in this rain included humans, wild beasts, monsters, and Demigod.

Every Demigod who was drenched in the rain showed a look of horror.

"Dead."

"Seven thousand four hundred and thirty-nine years have passed!"

"Another Demigod is dead!"

The sudden rain in Freljord

They are weeping for the dead Deity.
