In this continent where artillery fire is raging and refugees are constantly pouring in, Longmen seems like a paradise away from the flames of war, except for the problem of infected people which has reappeared after many years and is even getting worse.

And all of this completely disappeared on this day.

It was supposed to be a normal day, but the moment Xingxiong saw the red smoke rising into the sky... she knew it was too late.

The flames of war eventually reached the last paradise on the Terra continent.

"clang."

He tiredly put down the Prajna in his hand. The Prajna, which used to be able to lift things with ease, finally made the user feel heavy because of the continuous high-intensity battles.

Xingxiong knew that he was reaching his limit.

"Cough cough cough."

The smoke from the burning houses all over the street and the smell of blood mist in the air made Xingxiong cough uncomfortably. However, after a cough, her pupils trembled a little and looked at her palms.

The black gloves on his palms were already covered in blood, and he could no longer tell which were his own and which were the enemy's.

Around Xingxiong, apart from ruins and war, there were only corpses, some wearing military uniforms and some wearing Guards uniforms. However, at this moment, she was the only one standing.

The Longmen Guards...are almost all dead.

"Is it me who is next?"

Xingxiong murmured to herself woodenly, she had forgotten her sadness and grief. At this moment, she looked very calm, so calm that it was a little scary.

She forgot how many people she had killed, nor did she know how long she had been killing.

An hour? Half an hour? Maybe only ten minutes... Xingxiong herself had forgotten, she only remembered that there were twelve people left who had accompanied her to fight off this wave of attacks, but now, after a wave of attacks, she was the only one left standing here.

And fighting off this wave of legion charge... had already pushed her to her limit.

"But at least... it's enough for Lao Chen and the others to leave..."

Xingxiong remembered the reason why he was standing here. Knowing that the Dragon Gate could no longer be defended, all Xingxiong could do was to gather all his remaining strength to hold this last line of defense and let the survivors leave.

Old Chen, Shi Huaiya... and Little Chen Qi... should have left...

Well... that's enough.

In a trance, Xingxiong heard a horn-like sound again in her ears. Her dazed eyes seemed to have regained some consciousness, and she subconsciously clenched Prajna.

...This is the horn sound of the enemy's next wave of charge.

At this moment, Xingxiong almost didn't have the strength to stand. Her consciousness was a little hazy, and she could only raise her head with difficulty to look in front of her.

In the hazy vision, Xingxiong saw it.

Those groups of enemy troops were advancing towards her.

Xingxiong watched as those people came up to her and formed a circle around her.

The enemy was well-equipped, and they were just a vanguard, because there were no weapons such as firearms here.

But, just with this, Xingxiong was no longer able to continue resisting.

The shrinking circle was slowly shrinking, and Xingxiong could feel that the enemy was approaching her who seemed powerless to resist.

Finally, in front of Xingxiong, a soldier couldn't hold back anymore and rushed up with a sword raised!

"--snort!"

Xingxiong subconsciously clenched his shield, and then pushed forward with all his might!

"boom!"

"Click."

Finally, the horns that symbolized the Star Bear Ghost Clan were completely broken by this violent collision.

I felt a trace of blood slowly flowing down from the broken part, but Xingxiong's staggering steps still hadn't fallen down yet!

Her pupils have been stained red with blood, but she is still standing here, holding the Prajna!

"Who among you... wants to be the next one?"

Taking advantage of the pain, Xingxiong became ruthless again, raised his Prajna high, and began to madly reap the lives of his enemies again.

At this moment, Xingxiong, with his green hair dyed red by blood, broken horns, and ferocious face, really looked like a ghost.

But resistance is ultimately futile.

“Puff, puff, puff, puff—!”

From all directions, countless knife lights flashed simultaneously, and at the same moment, they pierced into different places of Star Bear's body.

Almost all of the flesh was pierced, and all the internal organs were pierced.

"Uh-huh!"

Finally, a mouthful of blood, symbolizing the last bit of vitality, flowed out of Xingxiong's mouth.

The focus in her pupils began to slowly dissipate, and the ghost's vitality was unable to resist such an attack.

"Mr. Chen..."

With a sound almost like a whisper, Xingxiong lowered her head. She looked at the ground stained with blood and suddenly laughed.

Yes, she smiled.

Without any ridicule or sarcasm, she smiled with genuine satisfaction.

I'm sorry... Lao Chen...

It looks like I have to go first this time.

At this moment, many past events flashed through Xingxiong's mind, one by one, all of which were things that happened between her and Chen Zai in the past.

She remembers every mission, every mutual support, every life and death.

"Before...we agreed...you would be responsible for catching them, and I would clear the way for you."

"Old Chen... this time, let's stick to the old rules..."

With a final smile on his face, Xingxiong slowly closed his eyes.

She was tired, she was so tired.

"This time... I will also help you explore the way through the gates of hell."

"clang."

The Prajna in his hand finally fell to the ground. However, as if sensing something, the dark and shiny Prajna lost its previous luster at this moment.

But the moment she closed her eyes, what Xingxiong saw was not her hometown.

She saw... the prosperous Longmen, Lao Chen and Shi Huaiya.

"Xingxiong, why are you here just now?" Shi Huaiya said to her in the same unruly way as she remembered: "Pujielong and I have been waiting for you for a long time!"

"Xingxiong, you're late." Chen, wearing a uniform, looked at her seriously and said calmly:

"Come on, we should go."

"..."

Xingxiong stared at them blankly. At this moment, she seemed neither injured nor tired, as if everything she had just experienced... was just a nightmare.

However, everything in front of her was so lifelike, as if telling her that it was all real.

At this moment, Xingxiong only felt a little sour in the corners of his eyes, and something wet was sliding down uncontrollably.

“——Tsk, you’re already a grown-up! Why are you crying all of a sudden?!”

Shi Huaiya was also shocked when she saw this, and quickly took out a handkerchief to wipe Xingxiong's tears. While wiping, she stretched out her other hand and grabbed Xingxiong's wrist.

"Let's go! We should go home!"

"……Um."

Xingxiong wiped the tears from the corners of her eyes with her arm, grabbed Shi Huaiya's hand with her backhand, and walked towards Chen who was smiling at her, striding towards her.

"It's time for us to go home."

……

"boom!"

Suddenly, Xing Xiong, who was distracted, was caught in a gap. He felt a huge force, and the Prajna that Xing Xiong had been holding in his hand was actually picked up and flew out!

"Xingxiong! Wake up!"

"Snapped!"

Following a scolding, the stunned Xingxiong was slapped hard in the face before he could react. Only then did he finally come to his senses.

At some point, everything in front of her disappeared. She saw an angry Old Chen standing in front of her, holding Chi Xiao in his hand, and yelling at her angrily:

"Are you crazy? Xingxiong! As an inspector of the inspection team! How dare you resort to violence without permission?!"

"I am informing you as the senior superintendent of the Longmen Guard Bureau! From today on, you will be suspended without pay. You will be confined to the solitary confinement room for seven days to reflect on your actions!"

Chen angrily threw his hands, and before Xingxiong could react, he shouted at the guards who had arrived beside him:

"What are you standing there for? Take Xingxiong away!"

"Yes!"

Among them, two members of the Imperial Guard finally came over to Xingxiong's side, handcuffed Xingxiong with one hand each, and said softly:

"Sister Ghost, I'm sorry."

"what."

At this moment, he finally realized what had happened. Xing Xiong raised his head suddenly, and saw the face of Chen Qi holding Chi Xiao.

But at this moment, Xingxiong's pupils suddenly contracted.

In her memory, the little figure she had seen before, at this moment, overlapped with the figure of the young man in front of her!

he is--

"——Chen Qi?!"

Xingxiong shouted in a voiceless voice, while on the other side, Chen frowned and scolded again:

"Stop shouting! I followed you here! No one from Rhodes Island told you about it!"

However, Chen's scolding did not bring Xingxiong back to his senses. Xingxiong looked at Chen Qi with eyes still full of disbelief.

All of this is not an illusion!

It’s really Chen Qi! It’s really that little Chen Qi!

But, what is going on?!

Xingxiong's mind was in a mess, she just felt that everything had become different.

As the memory in her mind slowly emerged and became clearer, all her previous doubts seemed to be answered.

Everything that happened before my eyes was real!

PS: I feel like I didn’t perform well. Maybe it’s because the brainstorm was ten out of ten, but only one point is left when it’s written on paper.

Ask for some money and razor blades~

Chapter 86: Xingxiong's Expectations for Shi Huaiya

An hour and a half later, in the office of the Senior Superintendent of the Longmen Guard Bureau.

"boom!"

"Powder Intestine Dragon! You must explain things to me today!"

A long-lost sharp and loud female voice was heard in the office. The members of the Imperial Guard looked at each other and saw an expression of "here we go again" on each other's faces.

Although it has been a while, this is not unfamiliar to the old employees of the Guard Bureau.

"I've made it very clear, Barbecued Cat."
