It is the only self-aware cat that has seen Crimson's former appearance and is still alive, so it is certainly qualified to say this.

In fact, several years ago, Crimson was actually quite good-tempered, except for holding grudges, because she didn't hold grudges easily and was usually a very easygoing person.

Unfortunately, that's all in the past.

Do you want to die?

The smile in his crimson eyes vanished completely, and he coldly demanded, "Pine Candy."

The white cat sighed, thinking to itself, "What an astonishingly nonsensical statement!"

Who wants to die?

Before it could meow again and fully mock its old friend who loved dogs, it saw Crimson raise its right hand and point it at itself.

Immediately afterwards, the cute girl snapped her fingers.

That snap wasn't cute.

Like thunder.

……

……

As the snap of the fingers fell, the twilight world that enveloped the entire bridge was also filled with the sound of thunder.

Su Yan suddenly lowered her hand.

The tissue fell to the ground.

Along with this, there was a soft ticking sound.

The blood, not yet wiped clean, dripped from the girl's fist and fell onto the cracked floor.

She ignored all of that and looked up at the twilight sky, where countless dense clouds surged toward the setting sun, burying most of the light.

Only a few rays of sunlight struggled to pierce through the clouds and fall on the bridge, making the whole scene sacred, like some terrifying scenes in a religious oil painting.

Su Yan fell silent, wondering what had gotten into Shen Hong.

She was no stranger to this scene, and even to its sacred meaning, because it represented the all-out effort of a fifth-tier powerhouse.

She simply couldn't understand why Crimson had suddenly made such a desperate move, as if she had been greatly provoked and was determined to bury them here.

What exactly is going on?

It's getting dark again.

Gu Yuqiu's voice sounded behind her, tinged with a touch of emotion: "Today has been exceptionally long."

Chapter 71: Author's Note on Launching the Book

First of all, I apologize. The book was about to be released, but the first two chapters were still updated during the underworld time. So the first chapter after the release will definitely be a little later. I'll write it after I wake up.

Of course, I could write another chapter now and set it to midnight, but I seem to remember that setting a timer can cause problems, and I don't want to stay up until after 10 pm to sleep, otherwise my jet lag will be messed up again...

Okay, okay, all I've said so much is mainly because I have some feelings or rather, I'm nervous, since going public is something that's really unfamiliar to me.

Moreover, the book did not perform well. The reason, of course, was that I made mistakes in the plot arrangement and character description. As a result, the protagonist's words and actions, in short, the character setting started to go wrong and did not meet my initial expectations. This caused a disconnect between the character and the story, and even I felt that those were not things the protagonist should have done. Apart from a few relatively good parts, most of the other parts had problems.

Fortunately, the last ten or so chapters have somewhat salvaged the situation. The protagonist has returned to the character I envisioned, becoming more lively and playful, instead of just being aloof and pretentious.

As for the plot... I started this book in February, then stopped updating until April because I discovered a serious problem with the plot that I couldn't find a solution for. Later, someone suggested I try writing it, so I reluctantly started writing. However, the result was not good. Many unexpected situations arose, and I had no idea how to write it but had to, which caused the pacing to become a mess. The plot once again leaned towards an endless daily life, and the main storyline was constantly being weakened by me.

Most people who are still reading this book have probably forgotten what the main plot was.

This is certainly my fault; I didn't do a good job. I will try my best to correct this in the following chapters and strive to tell the story clearly.

Since I'm picking up this topic again after three years, I should write it more seriously.

Um... Also, let me preface this by saying that I decided from the very beginning that this book wouldn't be too long, so the word count won't be as high as the previous one.

That's all for my thoughts on launching the product.

Finally, I would like to express my heartfelt gratitude to the readers who are still willing to continue reading. I bow to you all.

Chapter 72: Crossing the River of Wrath

Su Yan turned around, glanced at her, and said, "You don't seem scared at all?"

"I really didn't feel scared."

Gu Yuqiu thought for a moment, then said sincerely, "Maybe it's because of you?"

Su Yan thought to herself that although it was true, it sounded a bit different coming from her mouth.

Like flirting?

Listening to their conversation, Lin Mushi calmed the driver down a bit, then walked through the shadows cast by the dense clouds and came into the sunset.

In the twilight world, the setting sun still lingers, but the night has already arrived, creating a unique beauty of light and shadow intertwined.

The evening breeze carried a heavy chill, coming from afar, yet it could not dispel the somber scene that resembled an oil painting.

Lin Mushi raised her hand, tidied her slightly disheveled hair, and looked ahead.

The last rays of twilight fell upon Gu Yuqiu, becoming increasingly vivid, gradually changing from orange-red to deep red, resembling the color of fresh blood.

This is rather unlucky.

But that's precisely why deep red is called deep red.

Is there anything we can do now?

Lin Mushi looked at the backs of the two people in front of her and disliked it, breaking the strangely beautiful peace with her words.

Gu Yuqiu did not answer, because she was not in a position to answer the question.

Su Yan said, "Five minutes."

Five minutes?

Lin Mushi paused for a moment, then tentatively asked, "You mean, as long as we hold out for five minutes, that's enough?"

Su Yan raised her head slightly to look at the sky, admiring the magnificent scenery before her, and softly hummed in agreement.

Then she looked away and suddenly asked Gu Yuqiu, "Is the cat here?"

"cat?"

Gu Yuqiu shook her head and said, "I don't know."

She genuinely didn't know, because she had cut off all contact with Songtang after entering the Twilight World.

From this perspective, if Songtang suddenly betrays her, then today is the most dangerous situation she has faced since her rebirth, and she may even die.

Even though Songtang was absolutely loyal to her and earnestly said those trashy things to Shenhong, the situation was still terrible.

—Because Crimson is really strong.

"I have a feeling."

Su Yan gave her a deep look and said, "The current situation is due to someone's arrangement."

Gu Yuqiu raised an eyebrow slightly and asked curiously, "Who has the ability to manipulate a powerful figure like Crimson Crimson so easily? Moreover, is it necessary for us to be treated like this?"

Su Yan remained silent.

Yes, that's exactly what she didn't understand.

She was certain that her identity had not been exposed. Only two people in the entire Xin Chu knew who she was, and Shen Hong could not have known her true origins beforehand.

Or rather, if Crimson knew who she was, the chances of this battle happening tonight would be extremely slim.

She now even has a feeling that all of this happened so that someone would send her away from Xin Chu and prevent her from getting involved in the rest of the matter.

The problem is that neither of the two people who knew her identity had a reason to do so.

This is undoubtedly a very puzzling thing.

Su Yan sighed and stopped thinking about it.

Over the years, her status has risen higher and higher, but she has never been good at scheming and plotting, preferring to smash everything in front of her with her fists.

She took a step forward and said to the two people behind her, "I'm not sure if I can still protect you. If you die, then consider yourself unlucky."

After saying this, she left the glow of the setting sun and stepped into the night.

These thoughts and conversations, though seemingly lengthy, actually lasted less than thirty seconds.

As she stepped into the night after the clouds had fallen, the twilight world suddenly changed, no longer frozen like an oil painting.

"Oh, I thought you were going to chat for a while longer."

A light, arrogant voice appeared in the twilight world, landing in everyone's hearts.

Lin Mushi looked towards the source of the sound.

A figure appeared in the world where light and darkness intertwined.

The figure was enormous, radiating a dim light. It was a terrifying creature that must have existed only in mythology, and it seemed as if it could pluck the stars from the sky with a wave of its hand.

This is not a real person.

This is Crimson's projection on that void sea, now truly appearing before everyone's eyes, which means she has given it her all.

However... for some reason, Lin Mushi always felt that this figure was somewhat illusory, not so real, as if it was being disturbed by something.

"fine."

Su Yan raised her head and quietly looked at the giant-like figure, and said, "I'll talk to you in person another day. I hope you won't run away when you see me then."

The voice rang out again, tinged with mockery.

"Threats? Talk to me about that when you find me."

As soon as he finished speaking, the giant raised his arm, casually grabbed a beam of sunlight that had broken through the dark clouds, and hurled it as a spear.

Compared to this spear of sunlight, the Night King's spear seemed like a child's toy; there was no comparison between the two.

The gunshots fell like thunder!
