Chapter 79 First time on the battlefield
“Cai’er, you are not an orphan. Chenchen and I are your family. I am your most important friend. As long as I am here, you will not be an orphan.”

Bai Xi's words clearly acknowledged Sheng Cai'er's angry words and ignored everything about Lan Yanyu.

Lan Yanyu felt very uncomfortable listening to this and started criticizing Bai Xi.

"You claim to be Cai'er's friend, how can you bully her and say such things, even agreeing with her decision to disown us?"

In her opinion, Bai Xi was not a good friend.

A good friend will not bully Cai'er and will also advise her.

“Of course I agree with all her actions. She has a sound mind and knows what she wants. All I need to do is support her, help her, and protect her.”

But Bai Xi didn't think she had done anything wrong; on the contrary, she believed that everything she did was right.

Even if Saint Cherrie doesn't acknowledge her parents, she will support her.

She will support Saint Cherrie's decision to acknowledge her parents.

Because she believed that whether or not she acknowledged it was Saint Cher's will.

She would never force Saint Cher to accept people or things she doesn't like; Saint Cher's soul should be absolutely free.

"And that's exactly what I need."

"Unlike you, you'll never know what I want."

Sheng Cai'er's accusatory words, one after another, pierced Lan Yanyu's heart like knives.

But how could the pain she felt at this moment compare to even a fraction of the pain they had inflicted on Saint Cher?

"So please leave. I don't want to say it a third time."

Saint Cai'er's aloof attitude caused Lan Yanyu to burst into tears, and she eventually left the tent.

As soon as Lan Yanyu left, Bai Xi hugged Sheng Cai'er.

Sheng Cai'er nestled in Bai Xi's arms and murmured softly:
“I won’t cry for her. I’ve shed enough tears for her. I’m an orphan. I’m just an orphan.”

"We're still here, Cai'er, Cai'er..."

Bai Xi comforted the heartbroken Sheng Cai'er as if she were a young child.

How could she not be heartbroken?

The shadows of her childhood still linger, causing her to feel uncontrollably distressed whenever she sees her relatives, though she has stopped crying.

During those difficult days, she cried countless times, but no one softened because of it.

For her, tears were no longer a useful thing.

Bai Xi wasn't very good at comforting people, so in order to keep Sheng Cai'er from wallowing in pain, she tried to distract her.

"Cai'er, how did you recognize me back then? You couldn't see me at the time, could you? There must be many people in the world with the same name!"

"It's Chenchen's forget-me-not ring, and it's also your scent. Your scent is really special. I feel very comfortable when I'm around you."

"My aura? That shouldn't be the case."

Bai Xi became even more confused after asking a series of questions, because she had clearly concealed her aura! Her skill in concealing her aura was already highly refined, and no one other than a ninth-tier expert could detect it.

"I sensed your presence a long time ago, back when my nightmare had just begun—"

Sheng Cai'er was about to explain something to Bai Xi, but halfway through her explanation, a "ding-ding-ding" sound rang out.

"It's a military mobilization order!"

Wang Yuanyuan's voice was somewhat excited, sounding eager for the battlefield. "Cai'er, are you alright?"

Bai Xi was somewhat worried about Cai'er's condition.

"I am okay."

But Saint Cher acted as if nothing had happened; her voice had even returned to normal, as if what had just happened had no effect on her whatsoever.

But Bai Xi could tell that Sheng Cai'er was just suppressing all her emotions.

This can't go on; something terrible is bound to happen sooner or later.

But at this moment, letting her vent some of her emotions by taking action seems like a good option.

"Tell me what's wrong."

After thinking about it, Bai Xi was still a little worried about Cai'er, so she pulled Xiao Qing off her wrist.

"This is my contracted beast, Xiaoqing. Its healing magic is very good. You can take it; it will put my mind at ease."

Knowing it was Bai Xi's good intention, and understanding her personality, Sheng Cai'er couldn't refuse, so she accepted the little green dragon in its green snake form and let it wrap around her wrist.

As the group was leaving, they bumped into Long Haochen and his group. Led by the battalion commander of the first infantry battalion, the dozen or so men finally reached the top of the city wall of Exorcism Pass and faced the battlefield against the demons.

The emerald-green dual-wielding demons that brought them crisis a few months ago are now just cannon fodder, one-shotted by one.

These demon corpses were excellent ingredients for Lin Xin and Bai Xi to use in medicine.

As a result, Bai Xi focused on killing demons that could be used in medicine, while Lin Xin, who couldn't attack, followed behind her, constantly picking up the demon corpses and also using his superb defensive abilities to occasionally boost everyone's defense.

"Killing like this is too slow, Cai'er, help me."

Bai Xi's comment, "Too slow," had a profound impact on the original First Infantry Battalion, though she was unaware of the extent of the shock it caused. At that moment, under Sheng Cai'er's protection, she was preparing to unleash a powerful attack.
"Isn't this enough? I've never fought such an easy siege battle before!"

"Where did they find these guys? They're pretty fierce!"

Many people were unaware of Bai Xi and the others' origins, only marveling at their fighting prowess.

Only the battalion commander knew where they came from and that their strength was definitely not weak, so he also became curious about Bai Xi's ultimate move.

"Look, she might have some amazing move. She was the fastest killer just now."

Before she finished speaking, Bai Xi had already fully charged up her power. The transparent Cheng Ying sword floated up, like a bright ray of sunlight, so conspicuous in the darkness.

"Ten thousand swords, emerge."

A golden light suddenly appeared, like the rising sun.

Countless golden rays burst forth, and the aura of holy light swept across the city wall of the Exorcism Pass. Many dual-wielding demons were so intimidated by the golden light that they dared not climb the wall.

The countless golden rays heading down towards the city were actually golden swords, so many that they were almost impossible to count.

The golden swords were aimed at the city below, at the overwhelming horde of demons rushing towards the city gates. Each sword pierced precisely into the demon's body, strangling it with pure, holy light.

A large area below the city was immediately empty. The ordinary dual-wielding demons, because their corpses were useless to Bai Xi, couldn't even leave behind their bodies.

"Too, too, too brutal."

Those who were intimidated by that one were not only the demons attacking the city, but also the humans.

For a time, no demon dared to come up the hundred-meter-high city wall they were guarding.

Although they were cannon fodder, they still had the instinct to fear death.

"Wow, how many merit points would that sword strike cost?"
