Chapter 768: No Longer Wasted
Just as the two sides were at a stalemate, Xu Liangwei suddenly found that the power of his spell began to backfire uncontrollably. He widened his eyes in horror, watching his body gradually being eroded by the black mist, and screamed in pain.
It turned out that the evil arts he had been relying on were a double-edged sword. If used excessively and against the laws of nature, they would inevitably backfire. And the grandmother secretly guided the backlash force, causing Xu Liangwei to suffer the consequences.
Qi Tongwei looked at Xu Liangwei who was struggling in pain, and he did not feel any pleasure in his heart. He knew very well that the man in front of him was just a poor fellow whose mind was blinded by desire.
"Xu Liangwei, stop, this is your last chance." Qi Tongwei shouted loudly.
But at this time, Xu Liangwei was already overwhelmed by pain and madness. He rushed towards Qi Tongwei desperately, wanting to make a final struggle. Qi Tongwei shook his head helplessly, and under the guidance of his great grandmother, he emitted a soft but powerful light.
The light enveloped Xu Liangwei, and his body was instantly frozen. The black mist that was corroding him gradually dissipated. Xu Liangwei collapsed to the ground, and a trace of fear and regret finally appeared in his eyes.
"I...I was wrong..." Xu Liangwei said weakly.
Qi Tongwei looked at the man in front of him who had brought him countless troubles, with mixed feelings in his heart and a sneer on his face, "It's too late, too late, everything is too late. It's too late to say anything, these things are not that simple at all. Things have come to this point, people are not heartless plants or trees, but what you have done, how can it be easily forgiven, how can it end so well." Qi Tongwei's eyes revealed determination, he felt that Xu Liangwei must suffer the punishment of fate for what he had done.
Just as Qi Tongwei was thinking about how to deal with Xu Liangwei, one of Xu Liangwei's younger brothers suddenly rushed out from the dark. This younger brother was loyal to Xu Liangwei and always believed that everything his boss did was forced. With red eyes and a determined look on his face, he held an axe tightly in his hand and chopped at the back of Qi Tongwei's head regardless of everything.
With a dull "bang", the axe fell heavily on Qi Tongwei's head, and blood instantly spurted out. Qi Tongwei's eyes widened, his face full of shock and pain. He screamed, fell forward, and fell heavily to the ground.
When Xu Liangwei saw this scene, a complex look flashed across his eyes. He was grateful to his younger brother for saving him, and also felt a little sorry for Qi Tongwei's injury. However, the desire to survive prevailed at this moment. He gritted his teeth, endured the weakness of his body, struggled to get up, and turned around and fled desperately while everyone was still not able to react.
The sky was filled with dark clouds, thunder and lightning, and strong winds brought down raindrops as big as beans, as if the whole world was angry about this chaos and evil. Just when Xu Liangwei thought he was about to escape, a masked man in black suddenly appeared in front of him.
Xu Liangwei was startled and wanted to turn around and run in another direction, but he found that his legs were weak and he could hardly move. The masked man in black approached step by step. In his panic, Xu Liangwei caught a glimpse of the other's eyes. The familiar severity and pain made him feel an ominous premonition.
With a "thump", the masked man in black suddenly took off his mask when he was a few steps away from Xu Liangwei. "Dad!" Xu Liangwei shouted in fear. The man in front of him was his father, Old Man Xu.
Father Xu's face was filled with anger, his eyes burning with rage. He looked at his good-for-nothing son, his chest rising and falling violently. "You unfilial son! Disloyal and unrighteous man!" Father Xu roared, his voice echoing in the wind and rain.
Before Xu Liangwei could open his mouth to defend himself, Old Man Xu suddenly raised his foot and kicked Xu Liangwei with all his strength. Xu Liangwei was kicked and flew out, falling heavily into the mud.
"Look at what you have done! You use all means to pursue profit and hurt innocent people. Are you worthy of our ancestors?" Old Man Xu pointed at Xu Liangwei with a trembling finger, his eyes filled with tears of disappointment and heartache.
Xu Liangwei lay on the ground, the rain kept hitting his face and mixing with his tears. He looked at his angry father and only then did he truly realize how deep his sin was. He opened his mouth and wanted to say something, but found that his throat seemed to be blocked and he couldn't say a word.
Father Xu slowly walked to Xu Liangwei and squatted down. "Today, I must put an end to the mistakes you made. I can't let you make any more mistakes."
Xu Liangwei raised his head, rain streaming down his face. He stammered and suddenly gave a weird smile, "Okay, okay, I agree. I was wrong, I was really wrong." That tone made Old Man Xu's heart tighten, and a strong sense of uneasiness surged up.
As soon as he finished speaking, Xu Liangwei suddenly jumped up from the ground. He had a gleaming dagger in his hand and stabbed at Old Man Xu without hesitation. Old Man Xu was unable to dodge and the dagger pierced straight into his abdomen.
"Ah!" Old Man Xu groaned in pain and instinctively covered his wound with both hands. Blood gushed out from between his fingers. He looked at his son in disbelief, "You...how could you do such a thing, you unfilial son!"
Xu Liangwei seemed to be possessed by a demon, his eyes full of madness and determination. He looked at his injured father, not feeling any guilt, but laughing, "Haha, it's all your fault! You've been very strict with me since I was a child, and I couldn't breathe under the pressure. Now, I don't want to be bound by anyone anymore!"
Old Man Xu collapsed to the ground in agony, the light in his eyes gradually dimming. He could never have imagined that his own son would do such a cruel thing to him.
At this time, Qi Tongwei, who had received the news and rushed over, happened to witness this scene. Seeing the injured father Xu, Qi Tongwei's anger was instantly ignited, "Xu Liangwei, you are so crazy! How could you do this to your father!"
Xu Liangwei turned his head and stared at Qi Tongwei viciously, "You forced me to do this! Today, either you die or I die!" After saying that, he waved his hand, and the men who had not yet dispersed immediately surrounded Qi Tongwei.
Qi Tongwei knew that he was in a difficult situation. He was already injured, and facing so many people besieging him, he was really powerless. But he did not back down, and looked at Xu Liangwei firmly, "You have been completely bewitched. You have done so many bad things. Do you think you can still escape the punishment of the law and conscience?"
The two sides didn't say any more nonsense and started fighting each other immediately.
