Devil's Son-in-Law

Chapter 1157: Angel of Death

“Are you okay?” Chen Rui could see that Python’s injury was not serious, but fortunately, her momentum was still strong.

“If you come later, it may be very bad.” Python had really relaxed as she shrugged, “It seems that what I have is ‘luck’ instead of ‘doom’.”

Chen Rui understood the meaning of her last sentence. He smiled slightly and set his eyes on Satan and Abaddon, “Long time no see, Satan. Who is this person? Your partner?”

Satan’s eyes narrowed, but the light in his pupils became more and more menacing. He wanted to see through Chen Rui’s soul, but all he saw was a vastness as deep as the starry sky. He actually had an unfathomable feeling.

“You don’t even know ‘Dark Angel of Death’ Abaddon? It seems that you still have a lot of things you haven’t remembered…” Satan finally withdrew the power in his gaze, “Under this situation, you actually cooperated with Python. What a surprise.”

“Looks like he’s an acquaintance?” Abaddon looked at Chen Rui. His pupils flickered, and a plague power rushed toward Chen Rui silently, “It should not be someone unknown to have this level of power. Why do I have no impression of this guy at all?”

Satan pretended to not see Abaddon’s move, saying, “You can call him ‘Richard’… Let’s call him that for now.”

“What a clumsy little trick. It seems that Satan’s taste is getting lower and lower.” Chen Rui snorted, and the layer of dark blue color on the star armor disappeared, “Abaddon? Unfortunately, I haven’t heard of you either. But even if you don’t make a move, I won’t let you go just because you imprisoned my woman.”

“Your woman?” Abaddon glanced at Python, “You should be talking about the beauty dragon before. It seems that you have released her from the plague prison? But my cage is not so simple…”

Chen Rui didn’t say anything about Paglio canceling Zola’s plague prison, but he just looked at Satan, “Satan, do you want to fight me?”

“Of course, unfortunately…” Satan shook his head, “Now is not the time.”

“Satan?” Abaddon was taken aback. The faint breath from this ‘Richard’ should have reached the peak stage of the Pseudo-God. He is at the same level as me and possesses a terrifying speed talent. Judging from Satan’s tone and attitude, he should also be an enemy that should not be underestimated, but Satan is actually unwilling to fight with him! So, am I fighting against 2? Even if Python’s current strength is discounted, I’m afraid I won’t be able to defend myself…

“I signed into a contract with him 3 years ago. 10 years… that is, 7 years later, there will be a battle. Before that, I will not fight him.”

Satan’s explanation made Abaddon understand. Since it was a powerhouse of the same level, the contract could not be torn up, but what Abaddon didn’t expect was that when Chen Rui and Satan made the contract, Chen Rui was just an ‘intermediate stage of the Pseudo-God’.

For Satan, this contract or agreement with ‘him’ had extraordinary significance, and he was unwilling to forcibly violate it, which was also a kind of pride. In fact, if Satan really tried to void the contract, he would be even more surprised. Python had the same surprise back then.

“No wonder… when you found me, you said that you would not appear in public for a few years, and let Sariel and I start the matter of the Dark Divinity Temple in the Demon Realm Empire.” Abaddon realized, “This contract should be one of the main reasons.”

Chen Rui was secretly shocked when he heard the words. As he expected, although Satan admitted defeat in the last bet fight and promised to fight him 10 years later, he did not stop the Dark Divinity Temple plan. This visit to the Bloody Empire to ‘visit’ Sariel was part of the plan. The original intention was to unite or eradicate Sariel through coercion and lure, so that the Dark Divinity Temple plan could be further implemented smoothly, at least without hindrance. If the problem of Sariel was solved, then the next step must be for Sariel and Abaddon to repeat Satan’s method a few years ago, control the 3 empires, and then build the so-called temple to control the faith of the entire Demon Realm in their hands.

All in all, this time he found Python by accident. She could be used. If Chen Rui hadn’t taken the risk to kill Sariel and Python hadn’t recovered so quickly, then even if he could limit Satan with a 10-year agreement, they had to face terrifying opponents like Abaddon and Sariel now.

Anyway, it is indeed good luck after all.

“However, my contract target is only him.” Satan said lightly, and a powerful breath emerged from the kingdom, locking Python from a distance.

“Understood.” The dark blue in Abaddon’s eyes surged, “Then leave this ‘Richard’ to me. If it’s 1 vs 1, I have absolute confidence.”

“Perhaps… no matter who wins or loses between both of you, I will be disappointed.” A black armor appeared on Satan’s body with a cold crystal light. Suddenly, he showed a strange smile to Chen Rui, “Let me see how much strength you have recovered.”

“You will be really disappointed.” Chen Rui glanced back at Python, “1 vs 1. Any problem?”

“My sub-kingdom has been destroyed, so I may not last long.” Python sighed, “Do your best. If you can, better finish the battle quickly.”

Hearing Python’s words, Chen Rui became more confident, because he knew that the sub-kingdom was not as important to Python as the ordinary Pseudo-God. It seemed that Python had not used the last trump card in the previous battle. The reason for saying this must be to plot against Satan by surprise.

“If you really can’t hold on, just send me a voice transmission. As long as there is no special interference, I can keep you in the ‘world’ at any time.” Chen Rui’s voice sounded in Python’s mind. It was obviously the harem exclusive ‘private chat’ channel.

“I have only 1 request. No matter what happens, don’t take me away before I speak up.” Python didn’t say much. She turned her attention completely to Satan. After all, this was at least an opponent comparable to Michael, and she was also injured, so she had to be focused.

If she retreated prematurely, it would also affect Chen Rui’s battle situation.

“Quick battle?” The long nails on the 5 fingers of Abaddon’s right hand slowly moved around, like 5 extremely sharp daggers, “I should be the one who said this. As long as I kill this guy, you will completely fall into despair, right? I will let him know what the horror of death is.”

“If you can get rid of him, I can consider real surrender.” Python’s laughter had a strange charm, which seemed to contain special confidence.

“It seems that you really care about this guy to actually say such a thing.” Abaddon exposed Python’s provocative method, “But I don’t have much patience. Even if you don’t try to provoke me, I will finish him off immediately.”

“Let’s wait and see.” Python said something with a pun, and her figure slowly flew to the side like a fallen leaf. When she moved, Satan’s figure also moved.

Chen Rui and Abaddon lowered slowly toward the ground. Abaddon’s seemingly habitually circling 5 fingers drew strange marks, making Chen Rui, who was always watching his opponent’s movements, feel dazzled. At this moment, Abaddon’s figure moved.

The 2 figures passed each other before they slowly landed on the ground.

There were 3 bloodstains on Chen Rui’s face. Although the wounds were small, fresh blood flowed out continuously. The blood was actually dark blue, and a strange feeling spread from the wounds. But soon, the blood stopped flowing. The dark blue blood also turned red, and the wounds gradually faded away.

Abaddon covered his neck, where there was also a knife-like wound. This ‘knife’ did less damage to the body, but the key was that his soul felt slightly torn apart.

Abaddon’s gaze set on Chen Rui’s knife-like palm, and he no longer had any contempt toward Chen Rui. The pure plague power seemed to have no effect on this enemy, and the sword qi launched mid-air by that palm could actually directly hurt the soul. He seems to be a formidable enemy.

Chen Rui was also full of vigilance. This Abaddon’s attack was the strangest among the opponents he had encountered. If it weren’t for his [Analytical Eyes] and his instinct, he would fall for the opponent’s deceitful means.

This was not a contest like the Holy Light Mountain with reservations, but a real life-and-death battle without any restrictions. Only the last one standing was the real winner.

Chen Rui’s figure flashed and appeared behind Abaddon, and the [Aura Blade] in his hand emitted a strong sharp qi, slashing toward Abaddon’s neck. With his current strength of the [Pole Star Transformation] plus the [Wind Escape] buff of the Breeze Shadow Boots, even in the peak stage of the Pseudo-God, his speed was the top existence. Abaddon couldn’t dodge. He turned around and parried the [Aura Blade] with long nails. It made a metallic impact as sparks splashed everywhere.

Although Abaddon withstood the slash, he sensed a warning in his mind. He leaned back abruptly, narrowly avoiding the sword qi which pierced through his nails. A tuft of his hair was cut off. Chen Rui was about to pursue even more, but he suddenly felt that his palm seemed to be bound by something. As he checked, he realized it was those long nails!

The nails, which were harder than metal, had bent into a hook shape and clasped his palm. If it wasn’t for [Aura Blade]’s palm, which was equally hard, the hook would have been embedded into his palm.

Both of them lost the ability to move 1 hand, so they punched each other’s chest at the same time. After discovering the opponent’s intentions, they also had no intention of stopping or parrying.

“Bang!” The 2 figures separated again. They flew back for more than 10 meters before they stabilized their figures. Abaddon’s breastplate had a slightly dented fist mark, and Chen Rui’s star armor also had a few inconspicuous cracks.

Abaddon’s attack contained a special penetration for the soul, like a needle prick. Chen Rui took a deep breath, and channeled the Star Power, quickly relieving the tingling sensation. Abaddon was also suffering. Although the opponent had withdrawn his punches, the force like a huge wave was still surging wave after wave, making his blood surge for a while.

Chen Rui used left fist, which was a bit of a disadvantage, but his star armor was fused with the Wrath King Armor, so Abaddon was hit harder.

This round was almost even. Both of them became more cautious.

TL: This Abaddon is just an enhanced version of Paglio. Unless he had another might, otherwise no chance for Chen Rui to lose. Python vs Satan seems more interesting…
