The moment Xiao An ascended to the commanding height, what flew out from his sleeve was a steel storm.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Thunder roared, iron like rain, the earth shook.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>What Ji Jue could see were only straight white lines breaking through the air, pointing far away at the enemy swallowed by the storm on the ground.

In the endless tug-of-war that lasted month after month, relying on this matrix, countless enemies drank hatred in the consumption and fighting that was like a meat grinder.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In the wild perception of White Deer, Xiao An could naturally sense the blessings and aura the opponent had just used.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>【Preemptive Strike】 that could predict the opponent's next move, 【Lion's Encouragement】 that could exert 100% strength regardless of pain and interference as long as there was still a breath, 【Wind Sweeping Clouds】 that made attacks and charges unstoppable...\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If it really was the Iron Guard, then...\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This little trauma probably wouldn't be enough to make the opponent lose combat effectiveness!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In that instant, in the spreading blood water, that incomplete body twitched again.

No smoke, no injury, understand?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Tong Hua's lips opened and closed several times, unable to speak.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Fuck, the ones who die in horror movies are also a bunch of unlucky college students, and there's no lunatic like you who takes an oil tanker to explode with people on the street!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Which good person switches to a terrorist seamlessly when they get anxious!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But immediately after, she heard...\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The sound of footsteps coming from the flames.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>One step, then another.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Staggering, that vague figure, almost like a charred corpse, dragged the broken and melted blade, walking out from the hell of burning!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Actually still... alive?!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Even though his body and blood had already been ignited.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Voices... their... voices...\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Herbert instinctively, staggered forward, blankly and with difficulty moving his pupils, searching.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>All the voices, he couldn't hear them anymore.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>So quiet.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But when his burned eyes looked forward, amidst the trance of hallucinations, he seemed to finally realize.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Fire.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It's fire.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At the end of this hellish nightmare, the magnificent tide that filled the sky and covered the earth was so beautiful, just like the crystallization of destruction and death.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>That was the end of the road.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>From his carbonized throat, a laugh like a cry was emitted.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He panted, struggling forward, one step, then another...\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Toward Ji Jue.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But now, Ji Jue was no longer afraid.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In that instant, someone appeared beside him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It was Old Zhang.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Just like that, watching the dying beast gradually break apart amidst the wailing, the burning footprints stopped abruptly halfway.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Herbert fell backward toward the sky.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In his dim vision, the blood color in the sky seemed to gradually fade away.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The sunset was magnificent, the evening glow was brilliant.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The broken arm lifted, grabbing at the last wisp of sunset glow in vain.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>With this, it fell apart.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The endless war was over.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Finally, I can have a good sleep...\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Following the enemy's death, Old Zhang looked around, and after confirming there were no hidden dangers, he patted Ji Jue on the shoulder.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Not bad, I said I would help, but you solved it yourself?\" He sighed: \"It's just, the scale is a bit exaggerated.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Looking at the exaggerated scene before him, he couldn't help but pat his bald head.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The ability of young people to cause trouble really cannot be underestimated. He just wasn't paying attention for a moment, and he poked such a big hole... should he say the Yangtze River waves push the waves?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>When he was young, he fought hard and only smashed a few walls, but now the Chosen Ones are more like demolition teams one by one.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It's fine that Wen Wen doesn't know her own strength when she makes a move, but Ji Jue is actually starting to be a bit blue out of blue.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He bared his teeth and mourned for the wallet of the North Mountain District again.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This future scene is probably not easy to live...\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Old Zhang, how long have you been watching?\" Ji Jue came back to his senses and asked.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Just arrived, just arrived!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Old Zhang shook his cattail fan and looked left and right: \"Oh my, the people from the Wilderness Gathering who came to silence him are really tricky.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Okay, it's thorny in the literal sense, right?!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Hey, didn't I want to see how you guys perform? If you don't experience storms, how can you gain growth?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Growth? Me? Are you sure?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ji Jue's expression twitched, and he answered numbly: \"According to my experience, people who experience too many storms generally don't grow, they just become wave-driven.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As he spoke, after his spiritual essence recovered a little, he propped himself up, jumped off the car, carried the toolbox, and ran wildly in small steps.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Toward the last remains of the deceased.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Corpse, corpse, rescuing the corpse is urgent!!!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Once a person completely breathes their last, the spiritual essence dissipates, and the blessing begins to collapse. I don't know how much can be rescued. But seeing this brother so crazy, I'm afraid the blessing is also a top-grade one that has undergone several qualitative changes.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Moreover, even if it's burned to ashes, it can be taken back and used as material, and there are many uses for it!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Must race against time.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Without Brother Ball by his side, he could only use mercury to save it urgently first, hoping the blessing wouldn't dissipate too quickly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Wait, wait, wait—\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Faster than him was actually Tong Hua.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Enduring the feeling of nausea and disgust, Tong Hua held her nose, and after finishing the psychological work, she finally reached out toward the corpse.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Although she was a bit stupid, a bit silly, her IQ was a bit low, her head was a bit iron, and her brain wasn't very easy to use, the radar cultivated since childhood in a place like the Tong family where the whole family was Ether fun-seekers still keenly sensed some wrong places.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It's like, when a senior reader sees the author suddenly turn the pen to a side plot at a critical moment in the plot, they will frown, and some guesses will emerge in their heart—this prick, wouldn't it be starting to water the plot?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Observation with the Eye of Ether, locking, capturing.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Matrix · Yesterday Replayed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Tong Hua's fingers touched the severed fingers of the incomplete limbs for an instant, and her expression changed suddenly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Broken!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Old Zhang's brows wrinkled instantly, \"What's wrong?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"There's a problem, there's definitely a problem.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Tong Hua let go of her hand and said decisively: \"The corruption process of this person was artificially catalyzed!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Looking at the records of physical changes, tracing back one month, he was in a controllable and stable state. He should have been in treatment, using inhibitors. Although the quality was okay, and the corruption couldn't be contained, it was still in a stable period. As long as he injected regularly, he could maintain the status quo.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As a result, today, the corruption trend suddenly accelerated. From entering the stable period to the acute period, it only took half a day! That medicine definitely has a problem, and before we arrived, there were abnormal interference and tampering in his Ether records, the gaps in consciousness were very obvious, and a large amount of garbled memories that couldn't be traced back yet were stuffed in... It's the Heart Pivot!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She said, \"There was interference from the Heart Pivot lineage blessing in his consciousness, triggering his shell shock, putting him into a stress state, and directly catalyzing the corruption process!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Once the words were spoken, everyone fell into silence.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Xiao An still didn't seem to understand, Ji Jue's experience was too little and he hadn't had time to react, but Old Zhang's brows were already wrinkled, and his face gradually became gloomy.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A corrupt-stage Great Crowd Chosen One using problematic drugs to maintain his condition, and his mental state was precarious? At this juncture? Came to Yacheng? And happened to be involved in the infighting of the Wilderness Gathering?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It's like a high-risk mental patient specially sent out from a mental hospital and placed in a public place. As long as there is a slight stimulation—a word, a laugh, a loud noise, a signal, it will collapse the last dam.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>From the moment he entered Yacheng, he had already become a time bomb!!!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Even, worse...\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ji Jue looked back in realization, in disbelief: \"Someone deliberately sent him to An...\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Little Ji—\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Old Zhang didn't wait for him to finish and interrupted his words.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The moment Ji Jue understood, he immediately shut his mouth.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Actually, you were mistaken.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After a brief pondering, Old Zhang slowly said: \"Things aren't that complicated. We happened to encounter this group of people fighting internally, inferred to be uneven distribution of spoils. After experiencing dangers, we shot and killed the Great Crowd mercenaries who were fleeing and wanted to jump over the wall before they could cause more damage. There were no survivors.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Other unnecessary things, don't mention them in the report.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Due to the collapse and severe damage to the scene, the bodies were basically not found. Bringing back two knives and a few weapons as evidence to be sealed is enough.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As for the 'other' things, I remember the Ember lineage seems to have a use for them.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He looked at Ji Jue meaningfully: \"Do me a favor, just trouble you to take them back on the way, handle them however you want, just be quick.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>For the handling of the Ember Path, he clearly had a deep understanding. After the materials were processed through two or three procedures, no matter how awesome the Ether was, it couldn't read the original content, so naturally, there was no need to worry anymore.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Up to now, sensing so many strange things and suspicious points, even if he thought a little more, he could feel that the fighting between White Deers was no longer simple.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Or rather, from the beginning, it wasn't an accident.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The hand behind the scenes vaguely revealed a trace.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But it has nothing to do with the Security Bureau.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>They can't go any deeper, they must stop the loss in time.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>What does the life-and-death struggle of a bunch of trash have to do with me? If the Wilderness Gathering explodes tomorrow, will the Security Bureau shed a tear?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The top priority is to remove the North Mountain District from this shitty trouble, shake it clean, and ensure that those dirty things don't get stained at all.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Cannot become a fuse, and even a spark cannot be left behind.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Otherwise, if something happens later, I'm afraid there will be no shortage of people using the North Mountain District to make an article about the Security Bureau.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The more troublesome and serious things are, the more people will hope to have another thing to help themselves share attention and attract focus. Whether it's people with ulterior motives in the dark or guys who hope to solve the trouble as soon as possible, they won't be soft-handed at that time.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At that time, Old Zhang can just retire and go home to continue opening a massage parlor, but for Wen Wen, Tong Hua, Xiao An, and even Ji Jue who came to help, it's simply endless trouble.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I understand.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In the brief eye contact, Ji Jue understood: \"That's just right, I don't have anything to do, let me 'retrieve' the surveillance for you.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Old Zhang nodded.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Silently patted him on the shoulder.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After understanding his meaning, Tong Hua and Ji Jue immediately started to get busy.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Collecting physical evidence, preparing records, and finishing the scene.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This was just a normal task attendance. When the North Mountain District investigated a vicious crime, they tracked down a team of fleeing criminals and shot and killed them all.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Just like their work in the past, there's nothing strange about it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Everything is normal.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>From the camera records and Ether residues at the scene, it was all like this, but the damage caused was a bit large, so it was a bit incomplete, still very normal, and impeccable.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As for what the box that appeared on the little cow-horse bucket was, no one cared.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After communicating the situation at the scene with the police who arrived late, directing them to set up an isolation line, and issuing the contact information of the North Mountain District company to the insurance company of the accident victims, Old Zhang's work temporarily ended.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He unscrewed the super-large water bottle he carried with him, tilted his head and drank it, chewed the tea leaves he had been soaking all afternoon, stared at the neon in the night, and suddenly sighed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Troubled times.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He reached out and rubbed Xiao An's hair, and said softly: \"Go back when you're done.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Okay.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Xiao An nodded.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And under the same night, on the other side of Yacheng, the commotion had just begun.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ten minutes ago, Yacheng, Fanglan District, Mingyue Building.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Bustling with noise and excitement.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The streets on both sides were decorated with lanterns, looking as if they were full of joy.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Uncle Hu, long time no see, please come in, please come in.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Chairman Liu, old friend, why be so polite, please come in.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Among the coming guests, Lei Yaoxing stood at the door, greeting the arriving guests with a warm smile, but on the streets on both sides, there stood one after another expressionless, cold men, cold gazes sweeping over every irrelevant person who dared to approach.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And after inviting the Chief Inspector of the Fanglan District Police Station into the door, someone walked to his side with small steps and whispered: \"There seems to be some trouble in the North Mountain District.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After listening, Lei Yaoxing nodded calmly, just waving his hand: \"Don't be troublesome, let's talk after tonight.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Then, he put on a smile again and greeted another guest.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Big brother, it's really not like you, actually taking the initiative to talk?\" The eleventh sister, who was smoky and charming, pushed away the blocker and stepped onto the steps: \"Did you get those uncles to come out and stand for you so quickly?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Dad is still in the hospital, the situation is not good, go see him when you have time.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lei Yaoxing patted her hand: \"Grew up together since childhood, we are all family, what hurdle can't be crossed?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Really determined to eat me?\" The eleventh sister sneered.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"What eat or not, did brother treat you badly since childhood?\" Lei Yaoxing sighed slightly, earnestly: \"In the final analysis, we are all family, harmony brings wealth.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Today is very important to brother, give me some face, even if you want to fight to the death with the fourth and seventh, you don't have to pick today. Even if the situation is ugly, brother still can't bear to see you sad. That old house in the South Foothill District, didn't I never move it?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The eleventh sister's expression stiffened, her pupils pitch black, as if choosing someone to devour.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But Lei Yaoxing just patted her on the shoulder, \"It's getting late, go in and sit, let's talk about anything after everyone finishes eating... Oh my, Secretary Li, welcome, welcome.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He took the initiative to walk toward another person, signaled with a handshake, greeted enthusiastically, and invited them into the door.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The banquet hall was already bustling with noise, people who knew each other sat together, holding teacups, smiling at each other, but when exchanging glances, they always carried some indescribable something.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Always couldn't help but look toward the door.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Until a black car stopped at the door, and a round-faced middle-aged man wearing dull glasses walked out of it. His figure was slightly fat, simply looking like an enlarged version of Chen Yubo, but his skin color was much darker than his, his smile was gentle, and he waved to the people around him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It's hard to imagine that this is the Wilderness Gathering big owl who indirectly triggered the White Deer civil war and the Yacheng turmoil.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After four consecutive days of war, Chen Xingzhou finally appeared in a public occasion.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Looked at the steps.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>For a moment, Lei Yaoxing's gaze collided with his, but there was no anger or darkness, and even the smiles of the two didn't change at all.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A few short seconds, but it made everyone subconsciously hold their breath.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Until Lei Yaoxing took the initiative to walk down the steps and greet the most important guest tonight.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The two walked together with smiles.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Palms clasped.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Gentle and stable, as if the tacit understanding of cooperation in the past.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Didn't expect you to really dare to come.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lei Yaoxing sighed: \"Underestimated you.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"The uncles said to make peace, you want to talk, how could I not come, it's impossible to sit and wait for death, right?\" Chen Xingzhou was indifferent: \"Have you thought about how to deal with me today?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Those who come are guests, I don't have the habit of fighting with guests.\" Lei Yaoxing said, \"Even if we can't talk, whatever happens, let's talk after tonight.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As he spoke, he took the initiative to lead the way forward.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Chen Xingzhou waved his hand, stopped Uncle Lin behind from following, and went up with the host, looking extremely close.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Just when everyone breathed a sigh of relief, a soft, muffled sound came.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Bang!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Chen Xingzhou's footsteps stopped on the spot.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lowered his head in doubt.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Saw a trace of blood seeping from his chest, looked up in doubt, looked at Lei Yaoxing beside him, subconsciously grabbed him, opened his mouth as if to say something, but couldn't make a sound.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Shock, stunned, doubt, and then realization.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Amidst the chaos around, his palm loosened powerlessly, leaving only a scarlet blood mark on the pure white evening dress.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Fell backward toward the sky.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Terrified screams sounded.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Just like the late wails in the pool of blood.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>They had never stopped, continuing from the darkness, singing in the fight between the wolf and the deer.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>From beginning to end, White Deer witnessed everything.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The blood-stained prologue, thus pulled open...\u003C\u002Fp>",4289,"2026-06-17T22:21:51.502Z",1,"Gemini 3.1 Flash Lite","e70309b5eca54734c5d8b848b9764d4018c62d7dc6d4849198e6b0ba93868603","above-destiny-chapter-121","above-destiny-chapter-119",461,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fabove-the-heavenly-fate-cover.jpg"]
