Douluo Jueshi: Picking up Firefly at the Beginning

During those days when she was controlled by the Holy Spirit Cult using secret methods, in order to improve her cultivation level as quickly as possible, Ma Xiaotao became the Holy Spirit Cult's killing tool and was ordered to slaughter more than one peaceful and tranquil village.

In those bloody scenes, the people who died at her hands were all kinds of people: elderly people with white hair, men in their prime, gentle and kind women, and energetic young people.

Among them were Soul Masters with Soul Power, but most were ordinary, simple civilians. Those vibrant lives vanished like ants under her attacks, their numbers simply too numerous to count.

Now that Ma Xiaotao has regained her memories and self-awareness, she feels as if she has just woken up from a nightmare, only to find herself trapped in an abyss of pain from which she cannot escape.

Those bloody images kept flashing through her mind. Every innocent face was like a sharp blade, piercing her heart. This heavy sense of guilt was like an invisible mountain, almost crushing her completely.

If someone could come to her side at this moment and offer her a little comfort, it might become a ray of light illuminating her dark heart and helping her gradually emerge from this gloom.

After all, as a powerful Soul Master, she possesses a tenacious will and strong vitality, and is not so easily defeated.

However, reality is always cruel. At this moment, the people around her were either immersed in the aftermath of the battle or enveloped by the tense atmosphere. No one noticed Ma Xiaotao's inner struggle and pain, and no one went forward to comfort her.

Isolated and helpless, she could only wallow in her own world of pain, sinking deeper and deeper into despair. Every minute and every second, pain and guilt followed her like a shadow, growing stronger and stronger, tormenting her heart until it was riddled with holes.

Finally, she slowly raised her head and looked at the shooting star with her eyes filled with pain and despair.

With endless pleading in her eyes and her lips trembling slightly, she opened her mouth with difficulty, her voice as faint as the buzzing of a mosquito. In the noisy environment, no one could hear what she was saying.

But Meteor understood her gaze and heard the faint voice. With all her might, she uttered a few words: "Please, kill me!"

Meteor's expression shifted slightly, a complex emotion flashing in his eyes. He hesitated, his mind racing as he pondered whether to help Ma Xiaotao end her torment and free her from suffering.

On one hand, Ma Xiaotao's current miserable appearance and her painful and desperate eyes moved Liu Xing. On the other hand, her constant muttering of "kill me" also made Liu Xing fall silent.

After a brief silence and struggle, Meteor sighed deeply, involuntarily recalling the first time he met Ma Xiaotao in Star City. At that time, she was like a dazzling star, radiating an undeniable light.

She possesses an innate arrogance, and her every move exudes confidence and charm.

As a prodigy nurtured by Shrek Academy, she carried countless expectations and honors, and should have had a bright and enviable future.

However, fate played a cruel joke on her; she was targeted by the Holy Spirit Cult and fell into the hands of this evil soul master organization.

The Holy Spirit Cult's evil control techniques, like the tentacles of a demon, gradually eroded her mind, twisting and defiling her original soul.

From then on, she became a killing tool of the Holy Spirit Cult, sinking deeper and deeper into the abyss of darkness. Controlled, she was forced to carry out the various cruel orders given by the Holy Spirit Cult, and countless innocent lives were lost at her hands, causing her to unknowingly commit heinous crimes.

Now that she has regained consciousness, she is fully aware of the crimes she has committed, and her heart is filled with endless pain and guilt.

Her former pride and confidence had vanished, leaving only despair and helplessness. Her heart was ashen, and she felt that only death could atone for her sins. That is why she begged the shooting star to end her life.

"Since that's the case, I'll grant your wish!" Meteor's voice was deep and calm, without a trace of extra emotion.

He didn't feel sorry for Ma Xiaotao; he just felt that giving this opponent, whom he had once faced on the field, a relatively dignified ending might free her from the torment of being controlled by evil spirit masters and from having to face those painful past experiences again.

As he spoke, he reached out and the Flamelight Spear instantly appeared in his hand. His slender fingers gripped the handle tightly, and the spearhead was steadily aimed at Ma Xiaotao. The spearhead, gleaming with a cold light, seemed to foreshadow the impending end.

"What is he going to do?" Zhang Peng, the Scorpion Tiger Douluo, who was sitting leisurely in his seat, suddenly stood up as if he had been sprung up by a spring, his face full of astonishment.

His eyes widened as he stared intently at the meteor's every move, as if he couldn't believe what he was seeing.

"Hmm?" Zhongli Wu's usually calm face showed a hint of doubt. Ma Xiaotao had clearly lost the ability to continue fighting. In his opinion, the battle was already decided.

But Meteor's actions at this moment were truly baffling to him. Could it be that this young man had really lost his mind and dared to kill the incomparably noble Holy Maiden of the Holy Spirit Cult right in front of him?
Xu Tianran, standing to the side, showed an interested expression, a slight upturn of his lips, and a calculating glint in his eyes.

For him, if the meteor really killed the Holy Spirit Cult's saintess, it would undoubtedly be a wonderful thing.

Both the Palace of Eternal Night and the Holy Spirit Cult are powerful forces. If the conflict between the two sides intensifies and the hatred deepens, he can remain calm and control the balance from behind the scenes.

At the same time, he wasn't worried about Zhongli Wu going berserk, since Silver Moon Douluo Kong Deming was there.

The people in the Everlasting Palace were all taken aback by Meteor's actions. In their memory, Meteor had always adhered to the principle of avoiding conflict as much as possible and had always acted cautiously.

But now, he has suddenly changed his strategy and made such a bold move, which is really beyond everyone's expectations.

“Death, annihilation, extinction!” Meteor coldly uttered these words, his voice not loud, but it seemed to carry a superior indifference.

In an instant, the destructive intent of the spear frantically condensed, swirling and surging around the Flame Spear. This spear intent exuded a chilling destructive aura, as if it would turn everything in the world into dust.

With a flash of gunfire, Meteor's figure traversed the distance of space like a ghost, arriving in front of Ma Xiaotao in the blink of an eye. (End of Chapter)
