"Turning stone into gold-that was probably the appeal of alchemy."
Xu Le poured a surge of Guyinduo Spirit Energy into the ledger, and Warlock Luo's crystallized body immediately suffered damage.
A small piece of his skull rapidly turned to gold under the erosion of the Guyinduo Spirit Energy.
Xu Le pried that small piece of gold off his head. Then Warlock Luo's body began trembling and shaking violently, as though an earthquake were taking place inside him.
Xu Le squeezed the gold and remarked casually:
"The basic elements of the Triune Principle: everything comes in threes, all things return to one. But once some special effect breaks the rule of unity, the Trinity Rule breaks down, and the Spell Formula collapses. After someone called me uncultured last time, I really did read up on the Triune Principle. So... shatter, stone."
Crack!
The stone statue before him began to crack. Warlock Luo's petrification rapidly faded, and he looked blankly at Xu Le, only to be greeted by Xu Le's Black Sword.
Shhk!
Xu Le severed both of Warlock Luo's legs outright. Not yet fully restored to human form, he could not even feel any distinct pain.
By the time Luo felt the pain, the Black Sword had already pierced his chest.
By then, Ai Li, Wang Shu, and some of the mercenaries taking part in the operation had gathered around Xu Le, watching the Guyinduo Oddities roaming around him disappear one by one.
Ai Li and Wang Shu could still keep their composure, but the mercenaries felt some degree of aversion, even fear.

Under everyone's gaze, Xu Le gripped his Black Sword.
"Feel some sorrow."
Then Warlock Luo began crying, just like that. Pure sorrow...
