Chapter 2659


    Every trialist that went in was protected by some sort of bubble. The defense bubble the emperor had


    prepared explicitly for these trialists to prevent their deaths from the crossfire…


    He, on the other hand, didn’t have such protection.


    “As your guardian, so I won’t let you die!”


    “I’ll use myself to help you!”


    Shelly’s eyes were persistent, which made Alex notice a type of unwavering determination in her.


    She added, “The coffin hasn’t absorbed enough energy yet. If you’d like to revive your friend, you have


    to keep going. So are you going to do it or not?”


    “Okay then! I’ll do it with you!”


    “Hmph, don’t think I don’t know what you’re implying. You’re trying to harass me! I’m your guardian,


    kiddo, stay in yourne.”


    Boom!


    Shelly didn’t want to waste any more time, taking action immediately.


    On the shore, arge ancient bridge popped out of the middle of the sea. It was abnormally big,


    looming over the divine mountain. The other side of the bridgended right on top of the Underworld


    Tomb as well.


    Persephone’s Folly Bridge then appeared.


    Several rusted divine chains wereing from the bridge, pinning themselves into the depths of the


    Underworld tomb that held them in ce.


    The battle’s sudden variation shocked the emperor of the Underworld.


    A while ago, he was attacking the five hundred arhats of the Shoraionji Temple using the tomb. When


    the first was killed, the arhat’s Buddhist formation was heavily damaged, pushing them into a


    disadvantage.


    Arhats were being defeated, but these people were not actual humans. They were energy carriers.


    After being killed, the energy carrier would cease to exist as the remaining energy returned to the


    temple.


    The emperor was initially quite confident in himself, thinking that sess was just seconds away. It


    was especially since he gainedplete control over the tomb, colliding it into the golden towers of the


    temple. Moreover, he had seeded in breaking one of those towers, even destroying one of the


    ancient temples.


    The Shoraionji Temple was nearly broken as well, even Maha vomited blood at the time.


    Unexpectedly, when everything was near their end, such a bridge appeared out of nowhere, restricting


    the tomb entirely.


    “What is that?”


    “Per… Persephone’s Folly Bridge?”


    “No way! There’s just no way. Why would Persephone’s Folly Bridge be here?!”


    The emperor felt like he was going insane when he recognized the bridge. He was the one who had


    forcefully broken the bridge when he controlled the Underworld before getting out of River Styx. The


    entire river was cut in the process as well.From N?velDrama.Org.


    ‘Where did the Persephone’s Folly Bridgee from?’ He watched as Alex walked onto the bridge,


    approaching from the sea.


    “What?!”


    “It’s him?!”


    The emperor was stunned, not expecting Alex to be the one causing all this ruckus. He viewed Alex as


    a mere sacrifice after all.


    With a scream, he attacked Alex, intending to kill him right there and then. Golden fog surrounded the


    bridge, impeding their vision.


    However, Shelly showed up in her bright red dress, dragging Alex by the hand as they walked towards


    Persephone’s Folly Bridge.


    Behind Alex, the coffin cracked open slightly. It was as if there was a ck hole in there, absorbing


    golden mist like its life depended on it.
