The Most Painful Thing

Azillah transfer her fire magic into the sword and charges towards Li Wei in a fast speed. But for Azillah, she was flying towards her in a slow motion. She can see Li Wei Wei standing in front of her, encouraging her to stand up and never give up and saying, "Azillah, I'll wait for the day to come, that you will defeat me." that woman, was smiling at her widely.

CLANG–

Sparks flew when both blades clashes. When she looks at that face again. Her heart became extremely fuzzy. It was the same gaze. Those eyes that has ripples of determination and braveness, fighting the war to protect the kingdom's people. It was the same gaze that she bowed to the heavens that she would never betrayed her, despite the fact that she stole her man away.

Azillah can't help but to laugh inwardly. They really are the same. But where does this braveness and determination came from? Azillah thought.

"Why don't you just gave up?" She said as she made another round of charging towards Li Wei. Every swing of her sword sends fire that would hit Li Wei's slim body, scorching her swords into ashes.

"You think that I'll just give up?! Giving up was never been an option. That's what you thought me, Azillah."

"In the end...you'll always win."

"But it doesn't matter how strong you are now. I am ready. As long that I can still stand. I will fight."

A smile blooms on Azillah's mouth. Although her beauty cannot compared with Li Wei Wei, she was still beautiful that caught the eyes of King Argneel Fire Thunderstorm, who fought wars after wars. But alas, his death will be in the later chapters.

"I will always love this side of you, my child." Azillah said.

"Remember all the things I taught you. You will need it."

"I know. Thanks by the way, because I can used all of it against it you."

Azillah merely smile. Her eyes crystal clear. Because that's what should have been. I promised her. She thought.

Li Wei do a back flip, while in. the air, she move her leg to sent a kick to the Queen's stomach sending her out flying within 20 steps away.

BOOM–

With a proper balance, Queen Azillah managed to stand up while her foot continued sliding heavily on the ground because of the force.

She never expected that she can send that kind of powerful kick.

Azillah spat out a mouthful of blood.

Blood really runs through veins. She smirk, wiping the blood at the side of her mouth.

"Li Wei...do you know how to make a person feel the most pain?" She question.

Azillah slightly narrowed her eyes, the cold laugh in her eyes visibly deepened. She'll let her understand completely what real pain is and how it feels.

You have to get ready, Li Wei. Everything I taught you, and the things that made it feel on you...remember all of it.

Li Wei frozed. Her eyes widen in horror as a great force came out from the Queen's body. A wind force hitting Meimei and the girls filling their skin with bruises as their body landed on the ground heavily. While the boys, had a deep gash slashing through their left chest all the way to their waist, sending chills to Li Wei's heart as she watched how the blood stain their clothes.

Old Man Cheng was taken aback by the overwhelming power that greatly exceeds on his own. He tried to protect the younglings but it was too late. He just saw them flying to the side and fall unconscious.

It was so fast that it all becomes a blur. He can't remember how he ended up slipping and landed on his butt while a woman in front of him prepared to strike at him with a smile full of malicious dark aura.

In his thousand years of living, being an old man now, closing in to his death. This is the first time that death is actually near him.

But it was at this moment...

That for the first time in his life, he felt really weak. That moment, this image will bore into his mind forever.

And thus, because of this day, he retired being an alchemist and focus on becoming a powerful cultivator that can protect those he cared for. For her. For his bestfriend's only disciple. He will become stronger.

"The most painful thing, is watching that happened and couldn't able to stop anything."

Stab!

"Ugh. Cough–"
