The Rou family could clearly see the entire silence happening on the other side. And of course, they also knew what was the emperor was thinking. After all, their family had already two wins, and another one would be their total victory. In fact, a landslide victory to be exact.
Of course, as the emperor, he wouldn't let it happen that easy. He would surely come with them most plausible tactic.
But the Rou family had already the gist of how the emperor would choose. In fact, that was the only choice to increase his chances of winning this match. He couldn't dare to be careless now, he really need to have a win this time around.
"Frolian, you fight this round." The emperor commanded to his first true devil, "Win this round and earn our clan some face."
Because of the two consecutive losses, the emperor had truly lost a lot of face. After all, he was the one who suggested this set up. But, to think that they were losing? He was a prideful devil, and he couldn't let it happen just like that.
"Your Majesty, I will do my best to give you the win." Frolian bowed and headed towards the arena. Unlike the previous ones, he didn't dare to promise like the idiots a while ago only to lose and die miserably.
Yanlu Rou had already expected this. So, she wasn't surprised. And in fact, it was the best course of action to take this time. Lao Rou and the rest were also aware. They weren't dumb people. It was obvious that the emperor would take this route.
But what bothered them, was, why did the emperor take too long of his time only to come up to this plan? They knew that the emperor wasn't an idiot. Thus, there might be something underlying to it.
Inside the arena, Xu Rou and Frolian were staring at each other as if they were sizing up and calculating their enemies. Their gazes were so hard piercing that it could terrify any living beings around.
"Lady Xu Rou, I hope you can give me a good fight." Frolian was oozing with confidence and spoke.
"Don't worry, you will receive more than what you want." Xu Rou politely said. Since she couldn't feel any mockery in his tone, she decided to be polite though they were fighting to the death.
"Hmm!" Then, Frolian casted a hymn and many dao symbols appeared above him. These symbols were bursting energies that could make the whole world explode.
"Activate!" Not just that, Frolian had also used his essence blood to boost the symbols' power. The blood rapidly circulate around the symbols and had been totally emerged to it. Now, the previous black glowing symbols became a red glowing symbols.
"A proven dao and essence blood already. You're going all out." Xu Rou spoke calmly.
"I wouldn't dare to underestimate you. And because we need a win, I need to do everything I can." Frolian spoke. It looked like going all out wasn't a big deal for him at all. Well, as long as he could kill the enemy and win, "So let me see the glory of your proven dao, too."
He was indicating that Xu Rou should go all out now or else, there wouldn't be a time later on.
Xu Rou laughed and got his point, "Alright, I don't want to shame you since you used all your might here. Activate!"
Xu Rou didn't want to look like she was looking down on her opponent. Thus, she chose to use her proven dao also. It was a huge red rose behind her. It was beautiful and terrifying at the same time. It felt like its beauty could kill millions of people with just a blink of an eye.
"Let's end this with a single move, Lady Xu Rou." Frolian could feel the intense power of this flower, and couldn't help but falter. As the first true devil, he was the strongest after Patrosh, the emperor. Not just that, he also accepted the boosting power that the emepror offered and his strength jumped by leaps and bounds. So, he didn't understand what was this feeling of inferiority.
"I have no problem with that. Sure, let's do it your way." Xu Rou's casual attitude made the emperor had a bad premonition. He couldn't help but clench his teeth and think of something.
"Let's go!" Frolian roared and his symbols started to circulate mid air. Then, they turned into a giant vortex with the power of thousand worlds. After which, the vortex descended towards where Xu Rou was.
"Hmm!" Xu Rou also started. The rose behind her flinch a bit and raised its head. Then, energy particles gathered around the head and flashed a beam of light towards the vortex.
"Boom!" The explosion was deafening as everything turned white. It then crumpled the ground and everything became ruins.
"!" And it's not only that, the vortex had totally disappeared like it was never there, which astounded Frolian so much. He already boosted his proven dao with a lot of essence blood. But, it wasn't still enough? How was that possible? And, while his symbols were destroyed, how come the rose was still intact!
While he was in a shock, the rose's attack didn't stop there. It shot another beam of light and this time, it was towards Frolian.
Frolian had seen this and he didn't even bother to defend. He accepted his defeat and would die without regrets. He used his very best move, and it wasn't enough. So, what could he do?
Only, he was feeling a bit sorry since he couldn't also bring a victory for his emperor who he served for so many years. And he was also thinking, with how powerful this Rou family was, they might not yet ready to face them as they had underestimated them by a dramatic degree.
"Boom!" Frolian received the attack and was turned into ashes in a split second.
The emperor's face was dark and livid. He was angered, this time around.
