He was resurrected indefinitely and handed over to the state by the headmistress.

In Xuanyuan Tai's perception,

He only saw the "insect demon" suddenly appear in front of him.

A hideous grin appeared on that slime-covered "face".

"Demon...prepare to die!!"

Xuanyuan Tai roared, ignoring the excruciating pain all over his body, and once again forcefully urged his remaining power.

His right leg, like a red-hot iron pillar, slammed into the "insect demon's" head with a sharp whistling sound as compressed air flew out!

This strike was the final glow of his life after he had burned it out.

However, in Lu Chen's view, this attack was...

Its power was not even as great as the "Taishan meteorite" that was on Bibi Dong's bed.

Lu Chen shifted slightly, easily dodging the angry kick.

At the same time, his left hand shot out like lightning.

He accurately grabbed Xuanyuan Tai's ankle.

"Little Taiko, your attacks... are too weak."

Lu Chen said calmly, his tone carrying a hint of genuine regret.

This kid is really going all out.

But to Xuanyuan Tai's ears, what he heard was a hoarse voice full of mockery:

"Hehehe..."

Hey little bug, are you tickling me?

That little bit of force wouldn't even scratch my skin!

Since you're so useless, go join your companions!

Before he could finish speaking, Lu Chen swung his arm and tossed Xuan Yuan Tai high into the air like a rag doll.

He then clenched his right fist and casually threw a punch at the figure in the air!

"boom--!!!"

A muffled thud.

Xuanyuan Tai, suspended in mid-air, exploded instantly as if a bomb had been detonated inside him!

Blood rained down, splashing onto the deck of the airship.

It also splashed onto Canglong and the others who were not far away.

"Tick-tock..."

A few drops of warm, viscous blood slid down Canglong's chubby cheeks.

Canglong mechanically raised his hand, wiped his face, and looked at the glaring red in his palm.

This blood... is from Xiao Taizi.

The fat guy who just grinned foolishly even when they teased and bullied him...

That's it? Gone just like that?

Images of his time with Xuanyuan Tai flashed uncontrollably through his mind:

We feasted together, joked around together, and fought side by side...

Although it hasn't been long, they've already become close friends and comrades who can rely on each other for support.

Today, I watched helplessly as he was blasted to smithereens by the "demons"!

Canglong's face grew increasingly calm; the grief vanished, leaving only pure, cold killing intent.

His plump body trembled slightly, his inner anger compressed to a freezing point.

Miao Tiaojun, Ran Ruhua, and Chunli were all stunned.

The successive deaths of their companions caused them unbearable heartache, leaving their minds blank and unable to react for a moment.

Lu Chen's gaze swept calmly over them, finally settling on Chun Li.

"Next, it's you."

With a thought, Lu Chen vanished once more.

"Chun-Li! Run!!!"

Miao Tiao Jun was the first to snap out of his daze. When he saw the "insect demon" turn its target towards Chun-Li, he let out a desperate roar.

Chun-Li was awakened by Miao-Tiao-Jun's shout and saw the "insect demon" that appeared in front of her in an instant. A trace of panic flashed across the loli's face.

"I...I'm not afraid of you!"

Chun-Li's voice trembled slightly, but her movements were decisive.

His body sank slightly, and his hands traced mysterious trajectories in front of him.

"Yin-Yang Eight Trigrams Formation!"

A black and white Tai Chi symbol appeared behind her.

It emitted gentle energy fluctuations, protecting her in the center.

This is her defensive stance, which emphasizes using softness to overcome hardness and neutralize all attacks.

However, in the face of an absolute power gap, any skill seems pale and powerless.

Lu Chen gently raised his right foot and casually kicked Chunli.

"Snap—!!"

A crisp cracking sound rang out.

The seemingly resilient Tai Chi Bagua diagram was instantly covered with spiderweb-like cracks on its surface, and then it exploded completely with a "bang"!

"puff--!"

Chunli felt as if she had been struck by a heavy blow; her delicate body trembled violently, and she couldn't help but spit out a mouthful of blood, her face instantly turning pale.

She sensed the terrifying power of the other party and was horrified.

But her belief in protecting Miao Tiaojun sustained her.

She gritted her teeth and pushed the remaining power in her body to its limit!

"Golden Bell Shield—!!!"

Chunli let out a crisp, sharp shout, and her whole body shone with golden light!

A gigantic phantom of an ancient bell, as if cast in gold, suddenly appeared and enveloped her entirely!

Mysterious runes flowed faintly across the bell, emanating an aura of indestructibility.

"Oh?"

Lu Chen raised an eyebrow slightly, a hint of surprise flashing in his eyes.

"I didn't expect this guy to have so many defensive measures."

The defensive strength of this Golden Bell Shield truly exceeded his expectations.

He is even stronger than Hua Zhanyue and Xuanyuan Tai.

"This little guy... he must be his successor, right?"

Hua Xiyu sighed softly.

"That stubborn old man... I wonder if he's still alive... Could he... still be waiting for me?"

The voice gradually faded, lost in some kind of memory.

The way he looked at Chunli unconsciously became more like the loving affection of an elder.

However, even this extraordinary "Golden Bell Shield" was no match for Lu Chen.

Lu Chen only slightly increased the force in his legs.

"Snap! Snap!"

A shattering sound rang out, and cracks rapidly spread across the phantom of the golden bell, centered on Lu Chen's toes, covering the entire bell in the blink of an eye!

"puff!!"

Chun-Li coughed up blood again, blood seeping from all seven orifices. Her breath was extremely weak, and the light of the Golden Bell Shield dimmed rapidly.

She knew she couldn't hold on any longer. Finally, with difficulty, she turned her head and looked at the slender Jun not far away.

The little girl forced a smile, her eyes filled with endless love and reluctance.

"Jun...Brother..."

With her last breath, she called out softly.

"Bang--!!!"

The moment she finished speaking, the Golden Bell Shield shattered completely!

Lu Chen's foot pierced through the golden light without any hindrance and landed precisely on the side of Chun Li's head.

"puff!"

Chun-Li's head exploded instantly!

The headless, enormous body swayed and then slumped backward.

He fell to the deck with a thud and never came back to life.

"Chun-Li—!!!!!"

Miao Tiaojun let out a heart-wrenching wail!

He felt as if his heart had been completely torn apart at that moment!

Why?

He had always felt that Chun-Li was clingy, that she wasn't his type, and even felt somewhat resistant to her advances...

However, when he witnessed Chun-Li being kicked in the head and killed by a "demon" while protecting him, he was deeply saddened.

That excruciating pain, penetrating to the bone, instantly engulfed him!

He then realized that the person who had been following him all along...

He looked at his "muscle Barbie" with adoring and loving eyes.

She had already unknowingly occupied an irreplaceable place in his heart!

He just refused to admit it and kept running away from it!

Now, he has lost her forever!
