The slap was loudly. Five clear finger marks immediately appeared on Heck's face.

But beyond the expectation of Xue Tong, he not only did not hide, but also showed no anger. On the contrary, at this moment, Heck's eyes were dull and his expression was calm. His whole body seemed to be covered with a layer of death.

Is this the kind of Heck who is full of energy and free and romantic?

Xue Tong couldn't believe his eyes. But that's the truth. Hearing the old man suppressed it, like the old beast's low roar, Xue Tong seemed to understand something, but he seemed to understand nothing.

At this moment, Heck spoke.

I saw that he still lowered his head and whispered to the finger marks on his face without moving. "I know you are angry now. But I have a reason to have to come. If... this makes you intolerable, then I am willing to bear your anger."

"Hmph!" The old man snorted coldly, but turned his head. "My anger? Can you bear it? I heard that you have learned something recently and have touched the edge of the star. Do you think this can be qualified to talk to me?"

The old man said this easily, but it sounded like a thunder in the ears of Xue Tong.

Has Heck touched the edge of the star? Did Heck... have reached this level? So according to the convention of the cosmic warrior, he is now at a quasi-star level, and can exert his stellar combat power at some moments! Why is such a powerful Heck so compromising? Also, in Heck's words just now, the name of the dead old man was "you"?

Xue Tong could not hear it wrong, but he racked his brains and couldn't remember when Heck was so angry at people. Heck's rebelliousness and vengeance were famous. I'm afraid even the boss of the mercenary headquarters would not be able to bear the title of him.

Dead old man...who is he? Why can he do this?

For a moment, Xue Tong's heart was full of doubts, but he remained silent.

At this moment, he does not need to express any information, he only needs to listen and think.

Sure enough, the next moment, Huck shook his head and whispered. "I have never tried to challenge your majesty. Sir. I am just exercising her will."

"You dare to do it for her?" Heck was not fine. With this sentence, the old man's anger suddenly increased a lot. Although he had not turned around, his eyes were as real as the substance, burning with raging flames.

In a nearly solidified atmosphere, he said to Heck word by word. "Do you remember what you promised me?"

"I've never forgotten." Heck gritted his teeth, and blood stains were visible on his mouth.

"No, you forgot!" The dead old man roared, as if an old beast was at the end of his journey.

"At the beginning, you had to protect her and never let anyone bully her!"

"At the beginning, you had to dissuade her for me and not choose that dead end!"

"At the beginning, you lived her and everything you had to do. If you were willing to give your life, you would stand in front of her, block the wind and thunder of the universe and the ridicule of the world for her! You have to be her knife and the extension of her will! That's why I promised you and supported you. Let you become her only support, the man who can accompany her for the rest of her life!"

"But! Have you done it?" By the last sentence, the old man was completely furious. A terrifying aura burst out, and his bloody eyes were as shocked as a small boat in the sea of ​​raging waves. He could not even concentrate and calm down. When he stabilized his body, the old man returned to his previous state. It seemed that he had grown old countless years in an instant.

"You didn't do it."

"Huck. You failed me and her expectations."

"Now, you are standing in front of me again, what else is there?"

At this point, the atmosphere was so depressing that it was suffocating. In fact, the location of the three of them at this moment had formed a unique world, completely blocking the perception of outsiders. But even so, the blood pupil still felt a little uneasy.

In just a few words, he had noticed a lot of things and felt even more shocked.

But this is obviously not the time to think, because Heck has already spoken.

I saw him seemingly looking lifeless amid the roar and questioning of the dead old man. But then, he knelt down on one knee, and his face was almost buried in his chest.

"I have nothing to say!"

"You!" The old man almost made Heck angry to death with this answer. In fact, he had known Heck's stubbornness for a long time and admired his stubbornness very much. But when this stubbornness fell on his head, the old man wanted to throw him into the universe immediately and crushed him repeatedly with a force field of 100 million tons.

This is also considered an apology attitude? This is clearly a struggle!!

The anger in his heart rolled, and the old man's breathing became much heavier. After a while, he suddenly sighed and closed his eyes.

"Get up. I know, you might not have blamed you at the beginning. But I really couldn't control myself."

"Sir." Heck still lowered his head, but his voice faintly trembled.

Is this guilt or pain?

Xue Tong didn't know, but in fact, no one in the entire universe knew about it.

But there is no doubt that Heck at this moment was already overwhelmed by pain. Although his body was still upright, every tendon and every inch of nerve was trembling indeterminately. It was just that he tried hard to suppress it and failed to explode. Through his vague perception, the blood pupil even knew that his blood was boiling and rolling. The pain was straight into people's hearts.

What exactly makes Huck so painful?

Xue Tong thought silently, waiting for the conversation between the two.

"Yarna, she is really too stubborn. I have told her that there is no future on that road."

In the nearly solidified atmosphere, the dead old man said to himself in a dreamlike voice. His eyes also showed a look of remembrance.

"But she was confused by that person. She insisted on choosing the most difficult and incredible path in the universe. The path of will and the pure way, how could she, a girl, consider it?"

"My advice was taken as a lie by her. That's why I found you. I hope that the person who is closest to her can help her get out of this dead end."

"You promised me, but... the result is still unchanged."

"My she still disappeared in the wind like this..."

The old man's voice became lower and lower, lighter and lighter. In the end, he was silent. At this moment, he was no longer a powerful man, nor a arrogant "king". He was just an old man, a father who had lost his daughter. The pain and fragility were heartbreaking.

Looking at the vast starry sky outside the window, he murmured softly.

"I promised her mother that she would be happy forever, protect her, and take care of her. I would never let her bully her again."

"But... I didn't do it."

"You promised me to protect her, shelter her from the wind and rain, and support everything for her."

"You didn't do it either."

"Actually, we are not qualified for each other."

"Sir." Heck's head lowered. He could even see the flashes of his eyes in the corners of his eyes. Is that tears? Or, something else?

But the old man didn't pay attention to these things. At this moment, he was already immersed in the pain of his memories. His old body trembled slightly, and his blood vessels twitched on his thin arms. "I know she chose that path, it's too late. So I gave up my evolution direction and wanted to find a solution with my own ability. You have also promised me that I would try my best to stop her and protect him during this period."

"But what the result?"

The old man moaned in pain, lowered his head, and looked at his dry and trembling palms.

"When I succeeded and went back with that power, what I saw was her last glory. The flash that pierced the starry sky was still as if it was in front of me today."

"She disappeared! With her dreams and her will!! She is so determined that she didn't even leave a word for me! A smile... has never been seen by me! Huck!!"

"Do you know how much I hate you?"

"I don't blame you for not being able to fulfill your promise, but why don't you stop her! Even if it's one day, one hour, one minute!! You are willing to use your life to protect her will, but have you done it? You don't!! You are just blind like a stupid pig, only knowing to obey her and obey her!! Watching her head toward that dead end!! You coward!!"

The old man asked questions, as if a sharp sword was pierced in Heck's heart. Unconsciously, Heck's body became even more hunched, and he would have been in a group. If the pride of the warrior was not still supporting him, he might have completely collapsed.

But even so, he still repeated stubbornly.

"I have never broken my promise. It is her will that I have done everything!"

"You're still quibbling!"

The old man suddenly turned around, grabbed Heck's neck, and lifted him up. A thin palm was like an eagle's claw, and his nails were sinking into Heck's skin.

"If you hadn't broken your promise, why would she die? Why can't she even wait for my return! It's you, it's you! It's all your fault for not fulfilling your duties! I'm really blind. If I had known about your cowardice at the beginning, I wouldn't have promised her to adopt you! You should have been swept into the trash furnace like those wastes! At that time, do you still have to stick to that ridiculous obsession?"

At this point, the old man's voice was cold and cold, completely different from his usual ones. Blood pupils had no doubts. As long as Heck made a mistake in answering, the old man would cut off his neck, even if he was a planetary rank.

but……

Heck still, in a different tone than before, a firm, word-by-word.

"Sir, you were wrong!!"

What!?

Xue Tong's heart thumped. Just as he was about to say something to stop the old man, he saw that one of Heck's hand had appeared on the palm of the old man's neck that was pinching his neck, and bit by bit, spread the old man's fingers.

His movements were slow, but very determined. It seemed as if he would rather break the old man's fingers than stop. At the same time, his body became straighter and straighter, and eventually he was like a javelin.

"You are wrong!!"

"Because you have never known your daughter! My Sect Master!!"

"And my love for her has never been less than you!" (This site...your support is my greatest motivation.)
