Chapter 384: Fire Punch
“Aghhhh!!!”
Gao Yang tightened his arms around his grandmother, shouting at the sky. His growl, brimming with heartbreak, burst out from his chest with powerful energy resonation.

Gao Yang gently laid down his grandmother’s body and closed her eyes for her. Then he brushed her frayed white hair neatly, putting the pink strawberry cake hairpin back on.
He stood up and instantly disappeared.
Lilia had lost the buff from the Element Rune Circuit, and her consecutive fights with Dragon, the Spectres, and Yun had taken a great toll on her.
Even so, with the perfect combination of the physique of Epilogue, the head of the pride monsters, and level 7 Elemental, Lilia was still incredibly strong.
She had entered a temporary weakened state after the Element Rune Circuit was taken by Yun by force, but soon, a wave of wind elements brought her off the ground.
“Elemental Light!”
The five elemental powers unleashed from Lilia’s hands, converging into one giant beam of lush elemental light and shooting at Gao Yang.
Boom!
Red flames collided with the multi-colored elemental light.
In an instant, the crossroad paled, and powerful elemental gusts rippled, the various elemental powers running amok. Sharp shards of fire, ice, lightning, and light flew everywhere.
Three seconds later, it was Gao Yang’s fire that disappeared first.
Lilia’s elemental light had swallowed him whole and sent him flying tens of meters away.
Bam!
He slammed hard into a sedan parked by the road; the body of the car caved in, and its alarm blared piercingly.
Gao Yang was covered in injuries and bleeding everywhere. Embedded in the open gashes were elemental particles. He was almost blacking out.
Lilia’s chest heaved violently as blood trickled down a corner of her mouth. She collected herself and moved quickly to Gao Yang’s side in three seconds.
She reached out to grab Gao Yang’s neck with her right hand, slowly lifting him off the ground.
Gao Yang’s face was seriously burned, and his mouth filled with blood. One of his eyes had become fused with his melted eyelid, keeping it shut. His other eye narrowed slightly, barely making out Lilia’s figure.
No, I haven’t lost yet! I can still fight!
With the last of his strength, he raised his right hand and balled it into fist with difficulty, trying to make a swing at Lilia.
Splat.
Without hesitation and allowing no chance for resistance, Lilia thrust her left hand into Gao Yang’s chest.
Then she carved his heart out.
Thump, thump, thump...
The crimson heart was still pounding in Lilia’s hand.
The pain was so great that Gao Yang’s senses became dull and distant instead. His brain didn’t register the feeling, and he didn’t have the strength to scream in an undignified way even if he wanted to.
Hands dropping and one eye narrowed, he looked at his own heart weakly.
Their lives flashed behind their eyes—that was what people said would happen before one’s death.
However, the only thought that flashed through Gao Yang’s mind at this moment was a meaningless one.
So this is what my heart looks like. It’s so ugly.
Lilia crushed his heart.
