Chapter 170 I Want to Be the 'Only' in His Memory

Late at night, the bright moonlight pierced through the clouds, cut across the mechanically styled walls of the Gear Building, and shone into the room, onto Chenxing's smiling face.

Her smile was breathtakingly beautiful, yet it conveyed a sense of almost morbid distortion.

She gazed at the demon sword in her hand and whispered, "Give up, because even if I were to be devoured by you one day and lose all my reason."

"I believe he will respect my decision and give me the rightful place to belong, a place that belongs only to me and is given to me by his own hands."

At this point, Chen Xing covered her cheek with her left hand, and through the gaps between her fingers, her bloodshot eyes, now filled with madness, were revealed.

"So, you either completely submit to me and stand by his side with me."

"Either..."

Chen Xing suddenly twisted the blade, letting the sharp tip of the demonic sword gently press against his beating heart.

"...Join me and become the sharpest blade in his hand, to cut down everything that gets in his way."

At this point, Chen Xing suddenly paused, then his voice rose sharply, carrying an undeniable determination.

"Because I want him to know that what Caroline can do, I, Chenxing, can also do; and what Caroline cannot do, I, Chenxing, will do at all costs!"

"You should know who I'm talking about, right?"

Upon hearing Chen Xing's almost manic declaration, the demon sword, which had been trembling violently with excitement, slowly calmed down, and a subtle tremor, known as 'fear,' appeared on its blade.

Being of one mind and body with Chenxing, it knew better than anyone who the 'he' Chenxing was talking about was.

The master of Star Eclipse Heavenly Eye, who left an eternal mark on the depths of Chenxing's soul from the very first encounter.

If things really develop to that point, then it will not only lose the possibility of gaining 'freedom' forever.

She will also be swept up by Chenxing's insane obsession, turning together with her into the most twisted curse in the world, firmly locked in the depths of that man's soul, with no hope of ever escaping.

It was already struggling to deal with just one dust star, and if that person were added to the mix...
Upon thinking of this, the demon sword instantly became 'well-behaved'.

It was afraid, afraid that this crazy woman in front of it would really push everything to that point.

While the demon sword retreated, Chen Xing did not, and the light in her eyes grew even more intense.

Chen Xing gazed at the reflection of himself on the demon sword, his face flushed with excitement.

His words were full of anticipation and excitement.

"Actually, thinking about it carefully, dying at his hands isn't such a bad choice."

"Because by then, I believe that not only will I always have a place in his eyes, but I will also become the 'only one' he will never forget in his life."

"After all, he's so gentle, how could he forget the 'comrade' he killed with his own hands?"

Upon hearing these words, the demon sword fell completely silent.

Only now did it finally understand that, compared to conquering itself, Chenxing harbored an even more insane and morbid twisted obsession in its heart.

She wanted to etch an unhealable scar into that person's life and soul.

Even if the price for doing so is sacrificing her body and soul.

But she not only did it willingly, she was also eager to do it.

Compared to Chenxing's almost 'curse'-like, twisted and morbid 'love'...

Its demonic blade's greed for remnant souls and its thirst for blood are simply insignificant!
After all, what kind of good person would go so far as to treat death as a blessing just to be remembered by someone?

Isn't this insane?!
Damn it, it seems I've followed the wrong master!
Meanwhile, in a villa in the steam city. "Sigh..."

The Heavenly Dao gazed at the chessboard before it, its eyes lingering on the edge of the board where Chen Xing's fingers had inadvertently brushed against as he burned his own 'black pieces'.

At this location, a shallow scratch resembling a knife mark was clearly visible.

"This guy, Xing, is getting more and more influenced by the demon sword."

Tiandao sighed, his azure eyes clearly seeing the barely perceptible killing intent remaining on the chessboard.

This murderous intent is neither good nor evil; it is twisted yet incredibly pure.

Although this killing intent is an invincible weapon for Chenxing in battle.

But just as a sharp blade can hurt both the user and the attacker.

Excessive killing intent also affected Chen Xing's will to some extent.

"It's only because Xing's talent is strong enough and his will is firm enough. If it were someone else, they would probably have been enslaved by this killing intent and turned into a monster who only knows how to kill."

Tian Dao lightly tapped the table with his fingertips, creating a subtle echo in the quiet villa hall.

After a moment, Tiandao stopped what he was doing and said, "Although Chenxing's problem was not fully exposed in the second season, based on my contact with her during this period, I can clearly feel that the knife in her hand has become more and more restless."

"Perhaps it was because she discovered this that she did not take Chen Kong with her, but went to the Lieyang Clan alone."

"Even she wasn't sure if she could handle that knife?"

As he pondered this, Tiandao frowned for a moment, then suddenly stood up.

He walked to the window of the villa and looked out at the bright moon in the night sky.

"Although it's not a good thing to rashly interfere in someone else's cultivation, it's still a bit too much to expect her to suppress those violent obsessions and remnant souls on her own."

"Perhaps she hasn't even realized it, but she's becoming increasingly paranoid."

“But she wasn’t like this before.”

At this point, Tiandao suddenly chuckled softly, his expression carrying a hint of reminiscence for the past.

"The reason she didn't have the problems she has now back then is because as soon as there was the slightest sign, she would subconsciously find me under the guise of a challenge, and thus vent her uncontrollable killing desire in the form of a battle on the training field."

"Thinking about it this way, perhaps she already sensed something back then?"

"The reason why others cannot help her do this is because what the demon sword seeks is never victory, but a home."

"A scabbard called 'Homecoming' that can make it willingly hide its sharpness."

"Therefore, simply defeating the demon sword is not enough; we must make the demon sword submit from the bottom of its heart so that it can temporarily calm down."

"In that case, let's find an opportunity to test Chenxing's current strength later."

"After all, it's been a while since I've bullied her."

"But before that, I need to take care of some other things."

As he spoke, Tiandao took out the mask he had stored in the subspace and put it on.

Not long after, the mysterious masked man who briefly appeared at the beginning of the second season reappeared several episodes later.
