This villain is too popular.

Chapter 131 The Captured Shadow [Bonus Chapter for Monthly Tickets]

Looking at the bewildered Tiandao, Chenxing didn't give him a chance to speak and directly stated his reasons.

"As I just said, there are two conditions for passing the test: one is to withstand three minutes in my hands, and the other is to let me draw my sword."

"If you achieve the latter, it's equivalent to passing the test."

Heavenly Dao: "."

Although DustStar's explanation seems reasonable, it is actually completely unreasonable!

Because before he could even make a move, Chen Xing had already drawn his sword.

What kind of coercion was he to draw his sword? The underhanded tactics were too obvious!
"That's not fair! You're clearly letting them win!"

Seeing that Tiandao had passed the test so easily, Uncle Kongcheng, whose front tooth had been broken by Chenxing, immediately shouted out in dissatisfaction.

Chen Xing turned his head and gave Kong Cheng a cold glance.

The threat in those eyes was self-evident.

Sensing danger, Kong Cheng immediately and sincerely said, "No, we didn't hold back. It's perfectly reasonable."

"Ah."

Chen Xing nodded, then looked at the Heavenly Dao.

And unusually, he said in a gentle tone, "I'm sorry, it seems I did make a mistake. I will find an opportunity to apologize to you later, please don't blame me."

After saying that, Chen Xing put away his demon sword and turned to walk out of the arena.

However, from an angle unseen by most people, Chen Xing's hand, resting on the demon sword, began to tremble uncontrollably, and his eyes revealed barely concealed excitement.

Her purpose in becoming the examiner was simply to find a result.

With that single strike, she had achieved the result she desired.

What no one, including the Heavenly Dao, knows is this:

Her demonic sword, Bloodflame, can not only devour the blood of her enemies, but also absorb some of their star energy.

Therefore, even if the disguise of Heaven's Way is very good.

But Chenxing still tasted two familiar flavors from the star energy that the demon sword had just consumed.

One type is vector-controlled, and the other is the Star Eclipse Sky Eye.

And there is only one person in the world who can meet this condition at the same time.

There is absolutely no other possibility.

Thinking of this, Chen Xing even became a little lighter as he left.

The joyful mood was even noticed by the viewers outside the dimensional screen.

They were unaware of Chenxing's 'Demon Star Intuition', nor did they know that her demonic blade could devour other people's 'Star Source'.

Before today, even the Heavenly Dao was unaware that Chen Xing's demonic blade possessed such an effect.

After all, the original storyline of the second season did not mention that the demon sword had this kind of setting.

But just now, Heaven saw it.

He clearly saw a wisp of his star energy being suddenly snatched away by the demon blade, which seemed to be an invisible mouth.

Although the amount of star energy that was taken away was not much.

But the wise Heavenly Dao still managed to deduce some of the truth.

In addition, there were the last words Chenxing said.

Tiandao was absolutely certain that Chenxing had seen through his true identity.

Thinking of this, Tiandao sighed inwardly.

After putting away the shattered stars, he turned and walked off the stage.

Hagi Star, you're still the same as when you were a kid, always finding new ways to cause me trouble.
Although the captain's assessment was not yet completely over, Tiandao's mind was no longer on it.

Because he had already discerned the hidden meaning in Chen Xing's words.

If his deduction is correct, Chen Xing will most likely come to find him later, when no one is around.

Thinking of this, Tiandao's head began to ache.

Even though the second season has only just started airing, the plot is already subtly getting out of my control.

Demon Star Intuition and Demon Blade Capable of Devouring Star Energy
This time, the Heavenly Dao, which knew nothing about the latter, was completely defeated by intelligence.

Since things have come to this point, he should try to find a way to salvage the situation.

Nighttime, in the Upper Town of the steam city, in an unnamed villa.

"Danica, it's late, you should go to sleep."

Looking at Danica who was still watching TV, Tendou, dressed as the captain of the Fifth Division, picked up the remote control on the table and turned off the TV, which was still playing cartoons.

And then he saw the animated film he was watching being shut down by the heavens.

Wearing the small-sized Association Star Envoy outfit, Danica immediately acted cute and said, "Mr. Tiandao, just a little longer, okay? Once I'm done watching, Danica will go to sleep obediently."

Tian Dao tapped her forehead with his finger, ignoring her 'cuteness' and getting away with it.

"Watching TV all the time is bad for children's eyes and can cause them to become nearsighted. Go to sleep now."

Although she was still thinking about watching TV, little Danica eventually obediently climbed off the sofa and sneakily walked towards her bedroom, glancing back every few steps.

Upon seeing the little creature's appearance, the experienced Heavenly Dao immediately warned, "Don't even think about sneaking out at night to turn on the TV; you can't escape my senses."

"what?"

With her plan exposed, little Danica could only stand on tiptoe and twist the lock on her bedroom door, her face contorted with grief.

"Goodnight, Mr. Tiandao." Tiandao nodded.

"Good night."

After little Danica entered the room.

Tiandao sat on the sofa.

A moment later, he took off the "random passerby glasses" from his face and ran his right hand through his hair.

In an instant, his hair returned to its silvery-white color.

Even his pupils regained their signature azure blue.

Ding!
The moment the Heavenly Dao returned to its original form, a cold light suddenly appeared.

However, Heaven seemed to have foreseen the future, easily catching the demonic sword that had attacked it with its fingers.

"Xing, long time no see, are you launching a sneak attack right away?"

As soon as he finished speaking, Heaven released the demonic blade.

Before long, Chen Xing emerged from the shadows of the hall, glanced at Tian Dao sitting on the sofa with a complicated expression, and then...

She sheathed her demon sword and sat down on the sofa next to him without any hesitation.

"What exactly do you want, Heavenly Dao?"

Upon hearing this, Tiandao, whose disguise had already been exposed, simply stopped beating around the bush and directly stated one of the purposes of his disguise.

"Star, you should have noticed Danica's special qualities, right?"

Chen Xing nodded, then looked in Danica's direction and said, "Others adapt to the Star Source, but she is the Star Source itself."

“I sensed this during the day from the traces of star energy she left on you.”

"So, your purpose in disguising your identity is related to her?"

Tiandao crossed his legs and smiled as he looked at Chenxing, who had changed a lot since adulthood, under the moonlight.

"It's related, but not entirely."

"After all, my goals are not limited to this small steam city."

Tiandao didn't delve into the topic, but instead said to Chenxing with a hint of reproach, "Xing, do you know how much trouble your actions during the day have caused me?"

"I worked so hard to get this new identity, but it was almost ruined by you."

Instead of apologizing, Chen Xing laughed.

"Heavenly Dao, I said when I was a child that I would definitely follow in your footsteps."

"This time, you were the one who carelessly let me catch your shadow, weren't you?"

Looking at Chen Xing, whose beautiful eyes sparkled and whose face was full of smiles, Tian Dao was at a loss for words.

As Chen Xing said, this time, he did indeed reveal a weakness.

The flaw was that he underestimated Chen Xing's talent.

And he misjudged her persistence towards him.

Otherwise, he would never have chosen to appear before Chen Xing at this time.

Instead, during a time when she wasn't around, she went to the Steam Branch to seek the position of captain of the Fifth Division.

However, what's done is done, and it's impossible to change anything now.

Just as the Heavenly Dao was thinking of a way to temporarily trick Chen Xing away.

As if guessing his thoughts, Chen Xing said with a serious expression, "Heavenly Dao, this time I don't care what you're going to do, but please make sure you take me with you."

"I missed an opportunity six years ago, and this time, I won't allow myself to miss it again."

Moonlight streamed in through the French windows, illuminating Chenxing's resolute profile.

Seeing this, the Heavenly Dao suddenly felt somewhat dazed.

He thought of that 'troublemaker' from six years ago at the base who would occasionally challenge him to sparring.

Now, six years later, this 'trouble' has suddenly come back to haunt him.

However, he doesn't seem to be opposed to it.

Thinking of this, Tiandao smiled and said, "Alright, but this might be a little troublesome for you."

"is it?"

Chen Xing gazed at the Heavenly Dao, then suddenly laughed.

"It's alright, Heaven's will. As long as you don't find me troublesome, that's fine."

He gazed at Chen Xing's almost undisguised, staring, crimson eyes.

Tiandao suddenly found himself unable to meet her gaze.

Because he discovered that not only had Chenxing messed up his script, but she also seemed to have added something else to it without his permission!
What's going on, Hagi Star? Something's not right with you!

To hide the strange feeling in his heart, Tiandao turned his head away and pretended to be relaxed: "Look at what you're saying, I've never thought of you as a nuisance."

Upon hearing this, Chen Xing did not choose to expose him.

After all, she was worried about accidentally saying the wrong thing.

Thus, the 'shadow' she had finally managed to grasp slipped through her fingers once again.

PS: Alright, everyone, I can't finish writing this by midnight. If I keep writing, it'll be two or three in the morning. I'll try to finish updating it all at once by five or six tomorrow night and change my current rather weird update time.
