Infinite Terror: This Middle Continent is Rebellious

Chapter 372: Yandere

"Die with me, Zheng Zha."

Zhan Lan's voice was extremely gentle, like a warm hot spring, extremely sweet, like the call of a lover, but how could Zheng Zha not hear the hidden murderous intent.

What was going on? How had he wronged Zhan Lan? He had helped her, saved her, and even rejected her after knowing her feelings. Why did he have to die?

Zheng Zha knew that this was the result of Zhan Lan’s inner demons, but he was not angry, just extremely tired.

"I'll find a place to suppress Zhan Lan first. You guys stay alert and don't let Pennywise seize the opportunity again."

After giving instructions to the others, Zheng Zha's expression became serious.

"Infinite chaos, the creation of heaven and earth!"

Internal strength, the light of the soul, and the Xian Gua method are all skills that are melted into one. Positive and negative forces collide with each other, and the energy is annihilated, releasing a terrifying force that exceeds the fourth-level intermediate level.

Zheng Zha leaped forward, his speed tearing through the space.

Zhan Lan chopped down with his sword, and multiple sword lights burst out. The sword, as fast as lightning, ignited every particle in the air. The flames swayed, and distorted faces appeared. Sharp hissing sounds were intertwined with the overlapping sword lights, and it pounced towards Zheng Zha.

However, such a beautiful and dangerous sword move was as fragile as glass in front of Zheng Zha.

When Zheng Zha's body moved vertically towards Zhan Lan, the force generated during the movement formed a wind barrier like a meteorite impact, which shattered the flashing sword and blazing fire.

Zhan Lan's Dream-Breaking Sword hit Zheng Zha's body, but did not cause any damage to Zheng Zha.

In fact, the Dream-Breaking Knife did not touch Zheng Zha's skin at all. The power emanating from his pores was like the limitless power of Gojo Satoru. The blade of the Dream-Breaking Knife was stuck in it, and no matter how powerful the power it released was, it could not penetrate it.

Zheng Zha raised his hand and used the Six Dragons Spin move. His palm was divided into two forces, one pushing outwards and the other pulling inwards, forming a rapidly spinning vortex that trapped Zhan Lan's body.

Zhan Lan felt as if she was in a rapid current at the bottom of the sea, and her body involuntarily stopped in front of Zheng Zha.

Zheng Zha's palm power lifted Zhan Lan's body up from the ground, and the two of them turned into a hurricane and crashed through the wall of the hotel. There was only a loud sound of wind, and the sudden storm caused the sky above Delhi Town to suddenly change. The surging waves swept across the entire town, cracking the walls, overturning the trees, and making the rivers run like wild horses.

The culprit had already crossed a distance of hundreds of miles at the moment the strong wind arose and crashed into the mountains far away from the town of Delhi.

"boom!"

The palm power that enveloped the two men fell towards the mountain, causing it to sink. In the blink of an eye, the mountain that was over a thousand meters high disappeared, leaving only a depression in its place.

In the center of the depression, Zhan Lan fell to the ground, and the Dream-Breaking Sword in his hand had been taken away by Zheng Zha. Zheng Zha stood in front of Zhan Lan, holding the golden sword in reverse, looking at Zhan Lan in distress, not knowing what to do.

In terms of strength, it was no difficulty for him to crush Zhan Lan and make him lose his combat ability.

But what then?

After defeating Zhan Lan, he was helpless and could not accept that Zhan Lan would not recover. He was immersed in the state of inner demons, which was equivalent to chronic suicide.

Zheng Zha stuck the Dream-Breaking Knife into the ground, knelt down beside Zhan Lan, and said sincerely, "Zhan Lan, can we talk?"

He remembered everything Chu Xuan said clearly.

Although he didn't think the situation was developing in a good direction, he took the second half of Chu Xuan's words to heart.

Responding positively to Zhan Lan and helping Zhan Lan break free from his inner demons is something only he can do and something he must do.

Zheng Zha's eyes were firm, and his heart was heavy with a huge sense of responsibility.

Just as Zhan Lan helped him wake up from his inner demons, he must also help Zhan Lan wake up from his inner demons. He wants to return to the real world safely with Zhan Lan and everyone else.

"I regret this, Zheng Zha. I'm in so much pain. I feel so uncomfortable."

Endless sorrow and regret welled up in Zhan Lan's eyes, and tears rolled down from the corners of her eyes like rain.

Without hiding the pain in her heart, Zhan Lan revealed her inner feelings to Zheng Zha directly.

"Zhan Lan, I'm sorry..."

Zheng Zha felt a pain in his heart. He had often heard that women's tears were the most powerful weapon, but now he could experience how powerful the tears of a woman who loved him from the bottom of her heart but received no response could be.

"No, it's not your fault, it's my fault. It's all my fault. I originally planned not to fall in love with anyone else, not to disturb you and Luo Li, and to silently protect your love, but I can't do it! I couldn't do it, I'm sorry Zheng Zha."

Zhan Lan held out her hand to Zheng Zha with tears in her eyes. Zheng Zha sighed, hugged Zhan Lan's hand with both hands, and said guiltily: "There's nothing wrong with loving someone. It's my fault that I can't respond to your love."

Although he had already killed thousands of people, after Loli was resurrected, Zheng Zha was a wholehearted lover. Maybe he had been moved before, but he controlled his heart and extinguished the flame the moment it appeared.

Zhan Lan clenched Zheng Zha's hand and said bitterly, "I wanted to be closer to you, so I strengthened my Dao Heart Demon Cultivation Technique. I didn't need to strengthen it this way. As a psychic, I don't need this kind of attribute that enhances my combat power. However, I strengthened it anyway, not only because of Wen Lie's temptation, but also because I can't let go."

Zheng Zha said regretfully, "The Dao Heart Demon Cultivation Technique is too dangerous. I'm also at fault for not stopping you."

"No, that's not your responsibility. Everyone should be responsible for their own choices and pay the price for them... I will pay the price for having such immoral thoughts and interfering in the relationship between lovers today."

Zhan Lan shook her head. Her crying revealed intense sadness and helplessness, and her blurred eyes contained confusion and self-destructive emotions.

"No! You're not wrong, and I'm not wrong either. It's not anyone else's fault, Zhan Lan. Believe in yourself, believe in me, and believe in everyone. No matter what kind of knot you have, there will be a day when it will be untied. Don't give up!"

Zheng Zha suddenly felt panicky. Zhan Lan looked like he was going to commit suicide.

"Can you hug me, Zheng Zha?"

Zhan Lan stared into Zheng Zha's eyes, her beautiful eyelashes trembling slightly, like a newborn animal, timid yet full of hope. Zheng Zha hesitated for a moment, but ultimately couldn't resist Zhan Lan's tears. He pulled Zhan Lan up and gently hugged her.

"Zheng Zha, I just lied to you, but I don't regret it at all. I've never regretted strengthening the Dao Heart Demon Planting Technique."

Zhan Lan also wrapped her arms around Zheng Zha's body. She rested her chin on Zheng Zha's shoulder, and the breath from her mouth made Zheng Zha's earlobe feel warm.

"If I hadn't strengthened the Dao Heart Planting Demon Technique, how could my spiritual power merge with your sea consciousness? Without the opportunity provided by Wen Lie, we would have become ordinary teammates sooner or later, right?"

Listening to Zhan Lan's sincere voice and feeling the deep emotions contained in it, Zheng Zha's face also showed a sad expression.

"So, I'm actually very grateful to Wen Lie. It was he who gave me the opportunity to devour your Dao Heart and make you a part of me. I can feel your presence at all times. It's great."

Zhan Lan's voice became thinner and softer, like a gentle place where heroes are buried.

Inexplicably, Zheng Zha felt the same warmth from Zhan Lan that he had only felt from Luo Li. He couldn't help but hug Zhan Lan tightly with his arms.

A trace of confusion arose in Zheng Zha's heart, making him a little at a loss. However, he was still greedy for this feeling from Zhan Lan and subconsciously did not want to let go.

"Without the Dao Heart Demon Planting Technique, my Inner Light probably wouldn't be the White Snake. I wouldn't be able to take away your spiritual power and use it to create Loli's aura, nor would I be able to consume you and merge you with me. So, I'm really, really grateful to Wen Lie for strengthening the Dao Heart Demon Planting Technique and awakening the White Snake as the Inner Light. You're so gentle, it's really wonderful."

A gentle voice blew into Zheng Zha's ears. Zheng Zha's pupils dilated slightly and an expression of disbelief appeared on his face.

He couldn't understand what Zhan Lan said, or rather, he didn't want to believe what Zhan Lan said.

However, after Zhan Lan revealed his true feelings, Zheng Zha could no longer deceive himself. He could feel that the light of Zhan Lan's soul had penetrated into his sea of ​​consciousness at some point.

It wrapped around his soul like a python, absorbing his mental power imperceptibly, revealing its fangs as a venomous snake, and injected juice into his soul, making his mind increasingly dull.

Unlike the previous battles where only a small amount of mental power was infiltrated, in these few short breaths, Zhan Lan had already occupied nearly half of his sea of ​​consciousness!

How insidious! Zhan Lan, whose inner demons had erupted, actually took advantage of his emotions and resorted to such a sinister trick?

Zheng Zha was slightly angry, but more of a guilty conscience.

How could he have fallen for it so easily? It was so embarrassing. He felt so sorry for Luo Li, for falling for a different kind of honey trap.

"I love you, Zheng Zha, but I hate you too. Why did I forget the past and pour all my love into you, but you never responded to my love? Why did I strengthen the Dao Heart Planting Demon Technique? Why did I use the Dream Shattering Knife? Why am I in so much pain, loving you so much?"

Zhan Lan's cheek was pressed against Zheng Zha's face, and his gentle voice was filled with crazy emotions. Zheng Zha could feel Zhan Lan's muscles wriggling, and he could sense how crazy Zhan Lan's emotions were.

This is what it should look like when the inner demon erupts. The previous appearance, including the battle in the hotel, was all Zhan Lan’s disguise!

"But it doesn't matter. Really, it doesn't matter anymore, because we are about to become one, just like when I devoured your Dao Heart and integrated your power and spiritual power into my body. Just like when my spiritual power was destroyed by the enemy, you use my body. Let us go back to the past and become one again."

Zhan Lan has gone completely crazy.

Pennywise's little temptations made the dark side of her heart erupt completely. Her previous nostalgia, delusion, and greed became extreme in her dark self. Her twisted mind and emotions turned her into a horrible monster, devouring everything she wanted.

Just as Chu Xuan said, Zhan Lan's inner demon is far more dangerous than the inner demon that Zheng Zha had erupted in the past. Even Zheng Zha's strength was calculated against without his knowledge.

Zheng Zha's heart trembled, and at this moment, he even felt fear of Zhan Lan.

He had never imagined that Zhan Lan's emotions could be so terrifying. If she couldn't get him, she would eat him and become one with him?
Wen Lie, you are committing a sin!
Zheng Zha couldn't help but complain about a captain who recommended the Dao Heart Demon Planting Method to Zhan Lan for bad fun. If the Dao Heart Demon Planting Method hadn't been strengthened, Zhan Lan wouldn't have ended up like this.

"We're all still in the Zhongzhou team. The Zhongzhou team won't be missing anyone. By then, you'll be me, I'll be you, and there'll be Luo Li. The three of us will live happily together."

A charming smile appeared on Zhan Lan's face, but her eyes were as innocent as a child's, imagining a beautiful life in the future.

Zheng Zha took a deep breath and said calmly, "Sorry, I refuse."

He kept his mind focused and resisted the erosion of Zhan Lan's mental power.

However, mental power is such a dangerous ability. Once you have been attacked, how can you get rid of it so easily?

Even with Zheng Zha's skills, he could only barely slow down Zhan Lan's erosion speed.

Of course, if he exerts all his strength, he can blast Zhan Lan away from a real level.

However, given his current situation, if he wants to blast Zhan Lan away, he must use all his strength. If he uses all his mental strength, he can only barely blast Zhan Lan away. If he uses all his real strength, Zhan Lan will be shattered to pieces at such a close distance.

No, it should be said that Zhan Lan will die in such a way that not even a single muscle will be left intact.

Realizing his current situation, Zheng Zha frowned. He really couldn't think of a solution.

"You are you, I am me, we are companions, we are teammates, and that's just our relationship. We are not the same person."

"It's okay. I didn't expect you to agree. When we become one, you will understand my actions."

As if thinking of such a future, Zhan Lan laughed happily, while Zheng Zha felt creepy. He immediately used the ability of the third-level gene lock to simulate Chu Xuan's thinking and think about how to deal with Zhan Lan.

Chu Xuan said at the beginning that only he could help Zhan Lan free herself from her inner demons. What was the method?
What is the solution?
"There is only one way to free Zhan Lan from her inner demons, and that is to boil Zheng Zha into soup... What nonsense?"

Zheng Zha was stunned, his expression a little tense.

Because of the influence of Zhan Lan's spiritual light, his thinking was difficult to become stable. In the past, when he simulated Chu Xuan, he could only simulate 60% to 70% of his thinking. Now, when he simulated Chu Xuan, he couldn't even simulate 50% of his thinking. His brain would even become confused because of Zhan Lan's mental power.

However, there should be useful information in these words. Chu Xuan would not talk nonsense. The method to help Zhan Lan break the inner demon should be in them.
