The umbrella opens, exuding a murderous aura.

Umbrella Emperor truly lives up to his name, with unpredictable and bizarre techniques.

Battle Lord can only defend himself with difficulty based purely on instincts.

At the corners of his mouth, trickles of fresh blood seep out, staining the beauty's rosy cheeks.

With a fierce attack, Umbrella Emperor's silver sword collides with the paper umbrella, producing an intensely loud noise that causes a painful ringing in the ears.

Battle Lord staggered and fell to the ground, retreating several dozen steps in dismay before crashing into a wall with a loud bang, the bricks deeply embedded into it.

With a spluttering sound, blood uncontrollably sprayed from Female Battle Lord's mouth.

Blood staining the crescent moon!

Umbrella Emperor only retreated three steps, stomping on the ground, creating cracks on the concrete floor, he stopped, shrouded in a sinister dark red fabric. Gang Qi circulated around his body, the fabric between his legs billowed with a flapping noise, and the paper umbrella rustled as if craving for the blood of the living.

"It seems you haven't learned anything from King Yan, To be compared with me is an insult. Today, leave your life behind."

Umbrella Emperor fully launched his assault, stomping powerfully on the ground. Suddenly, the ground shattered and he leaped into the air, the large umbrella in his hand reflecting the moonlight, showing a vivid red, like a river of blood.

"Die, killing you will surely cause King Yan great pain," a hint of cruelty flashed in Umbrella Emperor's eyes.

The large umbrella was raised overhead, under a crescent moon, the moon frosty, the man heartless.

Finally, Battle Lord saw what was depicted inside the mysterious large umbrella.

Inside, it depicted various scenes of unbearable pain, with living people being torn apart, others screaming in agony as they struggled in a boiling oil pot, thin withered arms reaching out from scorching flames as if desperately grasping for a lifeline, some had their tongues cut, bound to heated copper.

Hundreds of different patterns, vividly drawn with astonishing skill, but chilling and soul-stirring to look upon.

Inside was a terrifying scene of Infinite Purgatory.

The umbrella ribs, crafted from special bones, added a sense of malevolence.

"No one has ever seen the inside of my umbrella because those who have are already in the Infinite Hell within it."

"Battle Lord, you are the 7,326th Super First-class Expert, I'm looking forward to seeing your most beautiful bones integrate into my umbrella after your death."

A hoarse voice, like that of rotting wood, emerged from within Umbrella Emperor.

The paper umbrella rotated, utilizing the moonlight, Battle Lord made an astonishing new discovery.

"Your umbrella is made from human skin!" Battle Lord's eyes revealed an expression of disbelief.

Umbrella Emperor stood proudly, slightly nodding his head, "Made with secret methods and Forbidden Medicine, this special human skin is remarkably tough, impervious to water and fire, harder than steel, even bullets can't penetrate it."

"Shortly, your skin will also become part of my Blood Umbrella."

Umbrella Emperor's voice was hair-raising, his eerie black eyes like an abyss.

"Die!"

The paper umbrella accelerated its rotation, as sharp as a cutting machine.

From within the umbrella, countless densely packed, despair-inducing bone Hidden Weapons, their sharp ends glowing with a faint green light, clearly coated with an intensely potent poison.

A look of despair flickered across Battle Lord's eyes.

Umbrella Emperor's strength was far superior, especially with that bizarre umbrella, adding substantially to his power and widening the gap between them.

In this moment, Battle Lord's mind flashed back to Lin Hai, recalling the first time they met.

That day, having just reached the level of a Super First-class Expert, I was preparing to hunt a shark for my recent dinner on the uninhabited island where I lived. Unexpectedly, I found Lin Hai on the beach, his body riddled with over a hundred bullets, nearly turned into a sieve, his upper body bare, unconscious.

Ever since I saved that man, during the half a year we spent together day and night, he was like a wild beast, tirelessly tempering his body, desperately squeezing the potential and limits of his body. Under such an overload training that even the Battle Lord found challenging, Lin Hai reached the level of a Super First-class Expert in just half a year.

It was also that evening when I gave myself to Lin Hai for the first time.

I vaguely remember the moon that night, not yet full but charmingly curved, quite similar to tonight's moon.

"The moon is not yet full, with its imperfections, maybe it signifies separation and heartbreak, destined that you and I shall not perish on the same year, same month, same day..." the Battle Lord murmured to herself.

Umbrella Emperor stepped forcefully onto the ground, leaping into the air and striking fiercely towards the Battle Lord's beautiful forehead.

The Battle Lord, half her body embedded into the wall, showed no fear on her face, her eyes cold as frost stars.

But there was a touch of regret.

"Lin Hai, I have no regrets, no regrets of being your woman. From the day I met you, a voice in my heart kept telling me, you are the man worthy of my wholehearted love."

"Lin Hai, goodbye, I failed to protect Ouyang Xiaoya, failed to protect your mundane family, don't be angry."

"I'm sorry, my love, I've tried my best, I'm willing to give my life to protect everything you care about, but I failed, please don't blame me, please don't."

"How I wish one day, you could take me back to the small island where my master raised me and spent the rest of my life with you, watching your sunny smile, watching you cherish me in your hands, watching you let me frolic and jump, emitting joyful laughter."

The Battle Lord, clutching the silver long sword passed down from her mysterious master, would not let go.

Even now, with the last bit of strength, even about to be killed, she would not let go of the sword in her hand.

A swordsman, lives by the sword, the sword exists, the person exists, if the sword is lost, the person perishes.

Umbrella Emperor's deadly technique was imminent.

The surging Gang Qi, disheveled the Battle Lord's eyebrows.

"Die, King Yan's woman!"

With a clash—

A crack—

The wall collapsed thunderously, burying the Battle Lord's delicate body within the rubble.

Only a pair of blood-stained hands were exposed, still tightly clutching the sword!

Umbrella Emperor wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth, lowered his head, looking at the hand grasping the umbrella handle, the wound barely a hair's breadth away from his tendon, blood gushing forth.

Full of incredulity, Umbrella Emperor looked at the Battle Lord within the ruins, a hint of admiration flashing in his eyes.

"At the crucial moment, she unexpectedly developed a stronger Sword Move."

"What a pity, you're already exhausted and unconscious. To kill a woman with such a natural talent in Sword Dao makes my decayed body and blood feel a slight heat, I'm fascinated by this feeling."

Muttering to himself, Umbrella Emperor's eyes flickered with ruthless coldness, excited gaze, and a gruesome intent to kill, as he slowly advanced towards the Battle Lord's position, preparing to deliver the final blow to harvest her life.

————

Umbrella Emperor drew the bizarre, curved knife, whose bloodthirsty edge sent chills down one's spine under the moonlight.

"Die!"

The curved knife descended.

At that moment, a muscular figure, propelled by desperation, rushed through the night at an unimaginable speed, with a madman's roar, lunged desperately towards the blade of the knife about to land on the Battle Lord's forehead.

"How dare you!" roared furiously, seeming utterly mad.
