Chapter 2180 The Hero’s Final Curtain Call
Boom!
Rocks fell from the ceiling, and dust filled the air.
With a simple wave of Isabella’s sleeve, the air cleared up, revealing what happened.
However, it was an extremely mystifying scene to behold.

Rhett stood alone, facing over ten members of the Five Poison Sect.
Yet, Rhett showed no fear.
“D*mn it, we cannot let Mackenzie get away!”
Aora tried to break through Rhett’s defense once again
However, Isabella stepped forward to stop him.
“Isabella, why are you stopping us?”
Aora asked, his face shining with frustration and confusion.
Finished
Isabella did not look at him as she calmly replied, “No one can break through this man’s guard. Only time will bring him down.”
Aora slowly calmed down.
Scorpion Belle sneered. “Looks like you really want to die for that man, fool!”
Aora gritted his teeth, remaining silent.
He was not usually impulsive, but his hatred for Rhett was overwhelming.
One of his companions was dead, and another’s fate was uncertain, all because of this man!
If it weren’t for him, they would have killed Mackenzie by now, yet they were still empty–handed.
Rhett’s smile remained, his lips curling upward.
It was the pride of a king.
Though he wanted to kill Aora and the other masters of the Five Poison Sect, his body could no longer keep up.
He had fought hard to help Mackenzie escape, launching several attacks and even poisoning himself. Now, his body was weak, and exhaustion was setting in. He was holding on only by his sheer will.
He could continue to fight, but each effort would shorten his life.
He needed to save his strength, hoping to buy enough me for Anna to lead Mackenzie to safety.
“You and Mackenzie are the same. Though you are our enemies, you are both people we respect.

Isabella’s voice was calm.
“Hmph!”
Rhett coldly grinned. After meeting her gaze, he replied. “Thank you!”
“You’re welcome!”
All of a sudden, Isabella gave an order. “Rosa, prepare the harp!”
“Yes, Isabella!”
Lady Rosa quickly took out the harp she always carried for Isabella and placed it on the stone.
Isabella gracefully sat down her fingers elegantly moving over the strings.
A melancholic fill air.

Finished
As Isabella’s lips parted, a tragic and moving illusion began to appear, playing over the stone walls as if everyone had been transported to a world of sorrow,
“Through the clouds and winds, he bears both dust and glory.
“Love withers, tears dry, whether sorrow or joy. Who can truly know fate?
“Right or wrong, love and hate, all are fleeting dreams, scattered by the wind.
“After surviving the hell of indifference, guarding the woman meant to be his, he learns the world’s bonds need not be questioned.
“Blood stirs in his heart, yet time etches deep scars.
“Looking back as day fades, who will remember who I am?
“The mountains remain mountains, the rivers remain rivers. The memories vanish like smoke and wandering hearts wither. Who mourns for the tears the hero shed?”
As they listened to Isabella’s chant, Lady Rosa and Scorpion Belle felt tears well up in their eyes!
Though they were enemies, the man before them was truly a hero.
Many women would admire such a man, but sadly, this man was about to fall before them. It filled their hearts with sorrow.
However, Aora did not think the same. Upon seeing Rhett gradually close his eyes in preparation to fall into a deep sleep while listening to Isabella’s song, he decided to cut off Rhett’s head.
Lady Rosa and Scorpion Belle were both shocked. The enemy was already dead. Couldn’t Aora at least show some respect?
“Stop!
The situation took a turn for the worse when Isabella cried out.
However Anra had no intention of listening. He was determined to hehead Rhett

“Die!”
Aora shouted, his face twisted in fury.
He aimed to strike off Rhett’s head with a powerful chop.
“Hahaha… In the end, you will die by my hand! I am the victor!”
Just as he prepared to savor his victory, something strange happened.
Rhett’s body began to heal.
Aora soon realized he had not moved at all. Everything had been an illusion.
Isabella’s voice reached his durs at last.
“Respect your opponent and you will respect yourself.
“Quickly, go after them! If Mackenzie escapes, you will all die here!”
Aora gritted his teeth in frustration and ran after Mackenzie and Anna.
Scorpion Belle, Centipede Lord, and the others followed closely behind.
In the end, only Isabella remained. She slowly walked to the sleeping Rhett, gazing up at the Dark Knight of the Dark Night Islands.
“As a sign of respect, let your life end in this infinite illusion.”
Meanwhile, Anna was still searching for an escape route
Her eyes were filled with panic.
She could not let Rhett’s sacrifice be in vain.
She had to get Mackenzie out alive.
However, things were not going as planned.
The next moment, she sensed a dark presence.
Before she could react, a large snake suddenly appeared, flying toward her with a gaping mouth.
Ir–was over.
Anna was caught off guard. If she were alone, she could have easily dodged the bite, but she could not take a step back while protecting Mackenzie.
Thud.
She firmly pressed both hands against the snake’s mouth, but to her shock, another snake emerged from within its jaws.

No!
Finished
It was not a snake! It was a person!
It was the Serpent King!
“Hehe. I have waited for this moment. Once I consume the Saintess, I will be invincible!”
The Serpent King swiftly circled around Auna and lunged toward Mackenzie.
It was over.
Anna was powerless to stop him.
Mackenzie broke out in a cold sweat, but just as the Serpent King was about to strike, a pair of large hands gripped the serpent’s throat, halting its progress.
“Quintus!”
Mackenzie cried out in surprise.
Quintus was overjoyed. This was the first time Mackenzie had looked happy to see him.
The thrill of being the hero who rescued the damsel in distress was overwhelming. If only he had experienced it sooner, it would have been even sweeter!
“Your Holiness, I’m here too!”
A voice called from behind.
Mackenzie could not hide her joy.
It was not because someone had come to rescue her, but because she was relieved to see that her two friends were still safe.
At this point, she could not bear to lose anyone else.
“Serpent King, can you really escape?”
Quintus laughed with confidence. “You, little snake, are no match for me, the mighty dragon. How can you possibly escape?”
“Hehe! Is that what you truly believe?”
The Serpent King sneered, his smile cold and malicious. “Could it not be that I planned this, luring you here? This has been part of Isabella’s plan all along. Otherwise, how could Mackenzie have come here to face her death? Hehe…
“What?”
Quintus may have been skeptical, but Solana gasped in shock!
She had always felt something was off. With the Serpe against two. The Serpent King would not have been at
King and his Grand Protector, it was a fight of two, disadvantage, so why had he been fleeing?

what she understood it had all been a trap to draw them in!
