Chapter 804

(Uh, by the way, I must not be reincarnated as these two's child; that's too melodramatic, I have to act fast and build a new account before my sister gets pregnant by Big Brother Bai... wait, I must not drink the soup if I see Grandma Meng Po on the road later!)

Lin muttered silently in her heart.

Then ten seconds passed, twenty seconds passed, one minute passed...

Thump! Thump! Thump!

The girl's heartbeat was still beating strong and powerfully.

Lin's brows furrowed slightly.

(Ah, this, it's been too long, why haven't I died yet? Big Brother Bai, you should be quick about it! I know you definitely can't bear to part with me, but compared to turning into a Herrscher and becoming your enemy, I still hope to die as a human.)

However...

"Cough cough! Lin, open your eyes; now you have a piece of good news and a piece of bad news, which one do you want to hear first?"

Bai Ge patted the girl's cheek and said.

"Eh? Uh, w-whatever..."

"Fine, then I'll tell you the good news first: you don't have to turn into a Herrscher anymore, I've already pulled out the core."

Bai Ge smiled and shook the purple core in his hand.

At this moment, this Gem of Corruption was still warm, containing high-concentration Honkai energy exceeding 30,000 HW, and even the personality consciousness of the Herrscher of Corruption.

Lin opened her eyes wide in surprise, subconsciously raising her hand to touch her chest, discovering that nothing was wrong at all.

However, before she could feel the joy of surviving a disaster.

"The bad news is, even though you won't turn into a Herrscher now, but... you still have to die!"

Bai Ge's smile suddenly became incomparably dangerous.

"!!!"

Lin subconsciously swallowed.

Clang!

Suddenly, the sound of a blade being drawn came.

"Sis, sister, Big Brother Bai, uh no, brother-in-law, calm down, we can discuss things."

"You actually collected my fan-made books; I remember it was strictly forbidden a while ago, that's illegal, you know."

"Lin, can you repeat what you said earlier? When did you kiss Bai Ge? And is it true that you want to be my romantic rival in the next life?"

Bai Ge rubbed his hands and rolled up his sleeves.

Sakura's blade was already drawn.

At this moment, the terrifying aura released by the two of them would make even a mindless Honkai beast tremble.

(Ah, I'm done for...)

Lin's face turned deathly pale instantly; she didn't expect that she would have aftereffects after surviving a disaster! And compared to the crisis in front of her, Lin felt that maybe it would have been better if she had just died earlier.

"I was wrong! Sister, brother-in-law, spare me! You are adults, don't hold a grudge against a child; just pretend you didn't hear anything just now, okay? I-I-I-I promise to be a good sister from now on!"

Lin begged for mercy decisively, her two hands hugging Bai Ge's left leg and Sakura's right leg respectively, acting cute with teary eyes to beg for a pass.

However, this was a futile act.

Bai Ge and Sakura looked at each other and nodded.

"Anyway, let's beat her up first."

"Lin, stick your butt up."

"Eeyaahhhhh—!"

Several minutes later.

Lin was kneeling on the ground in an OTZ dejected posture.

Although she was very cute, this time neither Bai Ge nor Sakura showed any mercy; at this moment, the pink-haired girl's head was full of bumps, and she was sobbing while covering her butt.

"Wuwuwu... brother-in-law, why don't you just kill me, I suddenly don't want to live anymore!"

"How can that be? If I let you off so easily, cough cough, I mean if I let you die like this, wouldn't my rescue just now be in vain?"

Bai Ge said while tossing and catching the Gem of Corruption in his hand; this casual look made it seem as if it wasn't a Herrscher core, but an ordinary little stone used for skipping on water.

On the other side, Sakura's hanging heart also let go.

Ever since she knew Lin would become the Herrscher of Corruption, she hadn't slept a single good night out of worry, but fortunately, her beloved boy was as reliable and capable as ever.

It's just that...

Sakura discovered that she didn't really want this sister anymore.

She never expected that Lin had improper thoughts about Bai Ge!

And she actually used her mouth to kiss Bai Ge!

Thinking of this, the fox-eared girl's eyes narrowed slightly, placing the white-haired boy and her own sister on the scales of her heart respectively, and then... her dear sister was directly kicked off.

(It doesn't matter if I don't have this sister, and to prevent future trouble, maybe I should just cut her down!)

Thinking of the little love tips Lin had taught her in the past, Sakura felt that this sister was too much of a threat and must not be kept!

(Lin, let our sisterly love stay forever at this beautiful moment; don't worry, sister's blade is very fast.)

But of course, that was just a thought.

Sakura had already finished teaching the lesson that needed to be taught, and for the next few days, this girl would only be able to sleep on her stomach.

"Mm? Bai Ge, what are you doing?"

Sakura turned her head and saw Bai Ge frowning and clenching the Gem of Corruption in his hand, terrifying Honkai energy gathering in his hand.

"Nothing, it's just that this thing is still not behaving."

"This is the core of the Herrscher of Corruption..."

Sakura also had a grave expression.

Although Bai Ge looked like he had handled it easily.

But in reality, it wasn't just as simple as pulling the Herrscher core out of Lin's body; as the last Herrscher before the Finality, the Herrscher of Corruption couldn't possibly be weak.

In the process of Bai Ge pulling the core, he actually received incomparably powerful resistance; if he hadn't made complete arrangements beforehand, he certainly wouldn't have been able to solve it without incident.

First, he used Fenghuang Down to protect Lin's consciousness, otherwise, the personality consciousness of the Herrscher of Corruption residing in the core would undoubtedly have forcibly awakened and then occupied Lin's body.

Secondly, the moment Bai Ge found the core, the Herrscher personality in the core activated its authority, attempting to corrupt Bai Ge.

The essence of the Herrscher of Corruption is an ultimate virus with self-consciousness, capable of corrupting and controlling living organisms and machines.

But her attempt to corrupt Bai Ge...

Could only be said to be too overestimating herself.

If Bai Mouren were a memory body composed entirely of data, then there might have been a possibility of overturning.

But a Herrscher of Corruption with only 30,000 HW of Honkai energy wants to corrupt a Flame-Chaser bearing the title of 【Deliverance】 who possesses 800,000 HW of Honkai energy?

That kind of behavior is like a drop of ink trying to pollute the entire ocean; it can only be said to be wishful thinking.

And...

Misteln: "A mere Herrscher of Corruption wants to manipulate Bai Ge's spirit? Get lost~"

Herrscher of Corruption: "Why is there such a terrifying monster in this person's brain!"

The 【Ideal】 lady living in Bai Ge's spiritual space is not to be trifled with; any spiritual attack attempted against Bai Mouren will be blocked by the Misteln-brand firewall.

As long as she is there, Bai Ge can even take the Immortal Chi Yuan's Taixu Sword God head-on without any preparation.

Therefore, the Herrscher of Corruption's authority, which had too low an output, could not control Bai Ge's body, which had too high a strength, nor could it control him, who had Misteln living in his spiritual space.

This is also a Herrscher who is kept firmly in check by Bai Ge.

"Yo ho? Still struggling? Looking for the surrounding electronic network to escape? It's a pity, the internet here has already been cut off."

Bai Ge said while playing with the black box in his hand.

At the same time, he placed his hand on the Oath of Judah, activated the Divine Grace Barrier that could invalidate Honkai energy, and constrained the range to his right hand holding the Gem of Corruption.

Immediately, the Honkai energy within the Gem of Corruption was instantly drained.

Now, the Herrscher consciousness residing within it couldn't even activate its authority even if it wanted to; even if it kept drawing Honkai energy from the imaginary space, the Honkai energy would be absorbed by the Divine Grace Barrier the moment it was drawn over.

The output of just one core, no matter what, could not possibly blow up Bai Ge's Divine Grace Barrier.

Unless she had decisively detonated the core the moment the Divine Grace Barrier appeared, in that split second before her Honkai energy was drained away, she might have had a sliver of a chance.

But now it was too late, and...

"It's common knowledge that the Herrscher of Corruption is afraid of death, whether in the previous civilization or the current one; I really don't believe you have the courage to self-destruct the core, and even if you really did, it would just be setting off a firework for me now."

Bai Ge looked at the Gem of Corruption in his hand, which had become dim and lusterless because he had sucked away its Honkai energy.

Without Honkai energy as "gunpowder," the power of a Herrscher core wouldn't be very great even if it self-destructed.

And nowadays, he is no longer the Anti-Entropy-level fusion warrior he was when dealing with the Herrscher of Rock; the same trick won't work a second time.
