Battle Royale of the Sinners

Chapter 502 Vow of Amendmen

Chapter 502 - Vow of Amendment

"Are you okay, senior Ding?" Tong extended his hand to Ding Yuan.

"Oh? Thank you, your majesty!"

Ding Yuan could finally breathe after the imminent crisis. He was only a few inches away from death, but he was saved.

"Say, senior Ding, have you read the clan chat recently?"

The face of Ding Yuan cramped as soon as Tong mentioned the recent clan chat. He would be a fool had he not realized that Tong referred to the scandal, which Lu Bu violated his daughter.

This was a sensitive matter. A wrong reply could spell death to his entire family.

"… Yes."

"Do you understand what your son just did?"

"… Yes."

Tong sighed, "You don't have to be afraid. It's not like I'll kill Lu Bu or something."

"Then?"

"When I heard that Min'er has been soiled, I examined her condition. Do you know what's funny?" Tong snickered, "My daughter learned the system skill that I gave to Lu Bu."

"…"

"To be honest, I'm pissed. Well, since he somehow saved my daughter's life, I can't really blame him…" Tong looked up and smiled at another angel, who was floating in mid-air, "Do you have a minute, Fengxian?"

Lu Bu arrived later than Tong as his speed was much slower. By the time he arrived, Tong had finished killing both Ling Tong and Sun Fang.

Lu Bu looked at Tong and nodded with a bitter smile on his face. He was aware of what he had done, but he didn't regret it. He descended and stood in front of Tong.

"I'm sorry. Zhang Min almost died from soul injuries. I had to."

Tong shook his head, "Don't be. Say, Fengxian…"

"What?"

The atmosphere was awkward as Lu Bu didn't know what he should react or say to Tong. On the contrary, Tong seemed to have many things to talk to him.

Moreover, Tong's eyes contained doubt and hesitation. Lu Bu could tell that he was making an important decision regarding this event.

"I have a confession. I need your forgiveness as well."

"…"

"Will you believe me if I say that I'm the reincarnation of Dong Zhuo from the other timeline?"

"!!!"

Ding Yuan and Lu Bu widened their eyes in disbelief and astonishment. This came out from the left field, and they had never dreamed about this kind of confession.

In the other timeline, Dong Zhuo incited Lu Bu to betray Ding Yuan to join his side. However, Lu Bu overworked himself and killed Ding Yuan, proving his loyalty to Dong Zhuo.

Ding Yuan had a complicate thought as he stared into Tong's eyes. Since the latter did not hide his emotion and facial façade, the elite governor could read his expression and confirmed that Tong did not lie.

"Good lord…" Ding Yuan was speechless, "Then, have you been tricking us?"

"Don't mess around, Tong," Lu Bu glared at Tong and almost released his killing intent. However, he refrained from doing so.

"I never trick you, senior Ding. This is something that I have just discovered recently. I'm not messing around. You see, when one's cultivation reaches 8 wings, they will obtain their previous life's memory."

"But I do have the previous life's memory!" Lu Bu yelled.

"Those were the OTHER timeline's memory, not yours. They were the memory of someone else entirely. Lilim has simply copied their memory and implanted it to all of you, so your soul can be completed."

Ding Yuan and Lu Bu frowned as he did not understand Tong's explanation.

"Let's do it this way," Since both of them had no clue about the concept of karma, reincarnation, and multiverse theory, Tong placed his hand on Lu Bu's naked chest, "I'll force awaken your 8th wing. You will understand everything yourself."

*BOOM*

Without waiting for Lu Bu to react, Tong injected some of his lifespans into Lu Bu, forcefully awakening the 8th virtuous soul that Lu Bu had been delaying its awakening.

Eight white wings fluttered behind Lu Bu's back. However, some of them suffered minor injuries since the container was not ready for the weight of 8 souls.

Lu Bu coughed a mouthful of blood and crouched down. He activated his regeneration skill to self-heal right away.

"WHAT WAS THAT FOR!? I WAS DELAYING … my …."

Lu Bu widened his eyes after he gazed at Tong. His vision blurred, and he could see more strange objects and beings around Tong and Ding Yuan.

Tong's souls no longer had the appearance of policemen. Instead, they were fat and muscular ugly men, the previous form of Dong Zhuo in his prime.

Lu Bu recognized those people right away since he hated Dong Zhuo more than anything. The latter had abused his power, bullied him with authority, and exploited his status.

Still, Lu Bu could not bring himself to hate Tong this time. After all, he had gain enlightenment and more knowledge regarding karma and the universe through his multi-life recollection.

Karma snakes floated around them. At first, Lu Bu thought that they were wandering souls. But after they gazed back at Lu Bu, the latter obtained the flashback of their resentment, hatred, and their memory.

They contained the grudge of the animals and people that he had killed, the karma chain!

Finally, Lu Bu realized that all the previous memory he had obtained were nothing but a hoax. They were not his, but a borrowed recollection from someone else entirely!

He turned around to look at his true form, the 8 virtuous souls he had.

They were not in their human forms. Instead, they were grey wolves! He was not a human in the past, but animals!

Lu Bu closed his eyes, trying to remember what it was like in the previous lives. He remembered walking on all four, sniffing and hunting for meat, day by day.

He gritted his teeth, unable to accept the reality, "What is karma, Zhang Tong? What are we!?"

Tong sighed, "We are toys, being played by gods. Actually, we are Lilim's toys."

"Lilim!?"

Lu Bu paused as he recalled that he made a deal with this mysterious existence. She taught him a way to save Zhang Min's life with a price of him becoming her servant.

His face paled, realizing that he had agreed into something bad.

Noticing the change of expression, Tong squinted his eyes, "Have you ever talked to Lilim? She always talks directly to our head."

"Yes. Actually, I made a deal with her…"

Lu Bu explained the incident of why and how he passed the Immortal Yang Vein to Zhang Min. Ding Yuan could only look at his adopted son speaking something incomprehensible, but Tong nodded as he understood why Lilim did that.

"You fucked up, Fengxian."

"Wasn't that just a vow?"

"It relates to the advancement beyond the 10th wing. The only way to get from 10 wings to 11 and 12, we need a pledge of an immortal with 10 wings. The subordinate immortal will be forced to give up their future cultivation rights and get stuck to 10 wings for the rest of eternity! However, the one being the boss can use the vowed subordinates as their scapegoats. Whenever they die, the subordinates will die for them instead!"

Tong explained what he had learned from Medusa to Lu Bu, whose jaw dropped in astonishment and regret.

"I-I was fooled!"

"Damn right, you fucked up!"

"Then, how can I cancel it!?"

"…"

Tong bit his lower lip and shook his head, signifying that he did not know.

Looking at Tong's gesture, Lu Bu's eyes were bloodshot, "I'm going to kill that wench! I know where she is, and I'll fucking kill her!"

Tong grabbed Lu Bu's shoulder before the latter could fly, "Stop! What do you think you can do against her with your current power!? She is a demon goddess with 10 wings and the help of the universe system! We can't fight her head-on!"

Lu Bu turned around and glared at Tong, "Very well, then, my father-in-law, how are you going to deal with Lilim!? Don't tell me that you're going to surrender to her."

"Of course not! Why do you think I've been delaying the unification for so long!? I've cultivated my ass off, so I can fight against her before she advances the battle royale game and ruins everybody here!"

The two former nemeses glared at each other in the eyes. Both of them had been through thick and thin together for years, and now, they had a common enemy.

"Return to Ye with me for the time being. I need to solve the problem about you raping my daughter."

Lu Bu scoffed, "Are you going to make me a prince or something?"

"Idiot. I have to officially log you a few hundred times to soothe my daughter and every officials' anger, but I won't kill you or your family. I can't give Min'er to you, though, since Sima Yi and Wei Yan are fighting over her favor. They're going to rebel if I marry her to you."

"… I get it… so, are we cool?"

Tong snickered, "Yeah, I forgive you for whatever you did to me or my other life. I fucked you over in the other life. Now, now you fucked my daughter and messed up my rulership, so we're pretty much even. Will you forgive me for my past deeds when I was Dong Zhuo?"

Lu Bu looked up and gazed at several karmic chains around himself. He sighed before he looked back at Tong in the eyes.

However, Lu Bu noticed that Tong's karmic chains were fading after the former said that he forgave the latter.

Instead of speaking with his usual voice, he grinned and empowered his voice with his souls, "[I, Lu Bu Fengxian, forgive you, Zhang Tong, Dong Zhuo, for whatever you had harmed me in the past lives and this life.]"

*RUMBLE*

Several karmic snakes around Lu Bu paused. They smiled at him and nodded before they disintegrated into nothingness, signifying that they were freed from this unending karma tribulation.

The soul injuries that Lu Bu had faded as well.

Lu Bu's strength soared as his foundation solidified right before Tong's eyes.

"That's how it works! HAHAHAHA!"

Lu Bu was satisfied with his newfound power. Now, his foundation ended up becoming stronger than Tong, who was still slightly injured.

"Well, shit. How the fuck did you…"

"It's the vow, fool. The cultivation for the next wing is karma law, right? I just have to free these souls around me and repent for what I did. Now, I feel like I want to join a monastery or something."

Lu Bu thought about the vow that he gave to Lilim. A faint smile appeared on his face as he had an inspiration.

He might have made a mistake, but there might be a trick that he wanted to try.

"Let's go home."

"Yeah."

Both of them fist-bumped and bid farewell to Ding Yuan, who stood there, confused about what had happened.

Before Tong and Lu Bu could fly and head home to solve this issue with Zhang Min, Lilim's voice rang in their heads.

*VHOOM*

A red portal opened five meters nearby. The size and the effect were similar to Li Feihong's abilities, which alarmed Tong and Lu Bu, forcing them to leap backward in a panic.

A demoness with 10 black wings behind her back stepped out, followed by two angels with 8 wings.

Guan Yu, Zuo Ci, and Lilim appeared!

"Lu Fengxian, you're now my subordinate, so come this way, Tsktsktsk." Lilim wiggled her finger, gesturing Lu Bu to walk toward her as if he were a pet animal.

Lu Bu sneered, "What if I refuse?"

"We'll kill you and your family, including your wife, your foster father, and your daughter."

Looking and listening to the conversation, Tong gathered his power and reinforced his body. His new ability of 8-wing demon, snakes of karma, gathered around himself as if he were the king of all snakes.

Black pythons, which had chains instead of the fleshly body, surrounded Tong, forming a natural barrier against Guan Yu and Zuo Ci, who had already drawn their weapons.

Lilim glanced at Tong, who was ready for combat, with a sneer, "Oh, look! A little imp has managed to tame baby snakes. How adorable!"

Tong clicked his tongue, "The game is over, Lilim. Leave us alone. All hostile otherworlders other than my allies are now on my side."

"How did you know? Don't you know that Pu Jing and Liu Yang are still alive?"

"I know that Liu Yang is Wang Yi and Pu Jing has already left the combat zone. My clan is the last one standing, so end the game already!"

After getting the 8th wing, Tong's insight and vision covered the entire country. As if he had the perception ability of a god, he could see everything whenever he closed his eyes.

It was a magical skill worthy of being called a god's gift.

With this new third eyes, Tong saw through Liu Yang's disguise right away. He even planned to persuade Liu Yang to become his permanent wife after Friday and Medusa, so they would not have to fight each other again.

Unfortunately, Lu Bu and Zhang Min's incident occupied him. And now, he ran into Lilim.

Lilim laughed, "Oh, dear lord. A demon with a heart of a saint, forgiving all his former enemies no matter who they were and what they did. Don't you know that many of your subordinates plan to kill each other on a daily basis?"

"I'll deal with them after I reveal myself as a demon god. Now, I'll ask you again politely. Please end the game and let us live in peace until we're summoned back to the nether realm. After that, you can do whatever you want with the local people."

"Hahaha! Sure! But you will also have to swear allegiance to me! Make a vow with your power and be my subordinate. Then, I'll leave you and all of your family alone. However, your Han Dynasty belongs to me."

"…"

Tong squinted his eyes.

Lu Bu turned back and looked at Tong.

The two's eyes met. For some reason, they exchanged words without uttering a word or relying on the system.

Tong smiled and turned to Lilim. He had made his decision.
