Protagonist:

Xuan Ge

"Xuan Ge... you... you must be okay."

Yao Guang's slender fingers gently arranged Xuan Ge's armor collar, meticulously smoothing out every wrinkle.

Her fingertips inadvertently touched the skin of Xuan Ge's neck, her tone frail, her eyes and brows filled with worry that could not be dispelled.

Even her voice carried a barely perceptible tremor.

Xuan Ge lowered his gaze to look at her, the indifference in his eyes fading, replaced by a touch of tenderness; he raised his hand to rub Yao Guang's white hair, his tone firm yet gentle:

"Don't worry, I promised you all that we will win, and that we will return safely."

"Mm~" Yao Guang nodded, the worry in her eyes slightly dispersing, then she turned and walked toward the warship.

But after just two steps, she abruptly turned around, stood on her tiptoes, wanting to kiss Xuan Ge's cheek, hiding all her longing in that kiss.

Xuan Ge reacted extremely quickly, raising his hand to gently cover Yao Guang's lips, a faint smile on his lips, his voice low and gentle:

"This kiss, wait for me."

He never believed in any so-called death declaration, nor did he want this kiss carrying longing to become an uncertain farewell.

This kiss should be kept until the war ends, kept until he returns safely, to be placed personally on her lips.

Yao Guang's cheeks instantly flushed crimson, she glared at Xuan Ge in shy annoyance, but her eyes were full of suppressed shyness.

There were still many soldiers watching around; why couldn't he let himself succeed once, to slightly ease the longing in his heart.

She said no more, turned and pulled Jing Liu and Ling Sha, who also wanted to step forward to bid farewell to Xuan Ge, and quickly boarded the waiting warship.

Before leaving, she still looked back at Xuan Ge, her eyes full of anticipation and reluctance.

"Master~"

A call both frail and firm rang out; Fei Xiao wore a suit of silver armor, making her posture even more upright.

Her originally scattered white hair was combed into a high ponytail, revealing a clean forehead; she stood by Xuan Ge's side, her eyes full of reluctance.

She was about to set off for Yao Qing; once she left, the road ahead was uncertain, and she did not know when she would see her master again.

Xuan Ge slowly raised his right hand; his fingertips moved slightly, a flash of blue-gold light passed, and the Ya Jiao Spear appeared out of thin air.

The spear body flowed with fine blue-gold lightning, emitting a cold and majestic luster.

This was his weapon, his partner in galloping across the battlefield and protecting Shen Wu; now, he would entrust it to Fei Xiao.

Xuan Ge held the spear hilt, gently handing it to Fei Xiao, a gentle smile on his face, his tone full of anticipation and apology:

"Xiao, don't blame Master; it is because my strength is not enough that I cannot achieve perfection and cannot keep you by my side.

But you are different; I have high hopes for you, by no means disappoint me."

"Yes! Master!"

Fei Xiao's tears surged up instantly, but she bit her lips hard, forcefully holding them back.

She solemnly received the Ya Jiao Spear with both hands, gripping it tightly; the temperature of the spear body transmitted through her palm, like her master's expectations and strength.

She looked back at every step, her gaze tightly locked on Xuan Ge, every step especially slow, full of reluctance.

Finally, she hardened her heart, turned and boarded the warship heading to Yao Qing, waiting to set sail.

Xuan Ge stood in place, watching one Shen Wu warship after another successively sail away, his gaze distant, looking for a long, long time.

Until the figures of those warships gradually disappeared into the horizon, did his tense shoulders slowly relax, and his heart finally felt much lighter.

The people he cared about most had all evacuated safely; he could then rush to the battlefield without any worries.

Xuan Ge did not look back, his gaze toward the distant sky, his tone flat, actually speaking to Chang Ye Yue hiding to the side:

"Chang Ye Yue, if you want to repay your kindness, then be responsible for manipulating the overpressure space device; with your strength, presumably there is no problem."

"Naturally no problem."

Chang Ye Yue's voice slowly came, a faint smile on her lips, her tone revealing no joy or anger, but immediately after, she added:

"But, General, your heart is so ruthless."

Xuan Ge remained silent, offering no explanation.

The overpressure space device, he had long since figured it out.

The Abundance aberrations were ambitious and would eventually gather all their main forces to fight the Shen Wu Xian Zhou to the death; this device was his trump card prepared for this great war.

Previously, when he went to Luo Fu to recruit people, he never truly cared about those few fox people's flying ability; what he truly cared about was Dan Shu.

Only through Dan Shu could he have a legitimate reason to invite Ruan Mei to Shen Wu; and his true target had always been Hei Ta.

Only Hei Ta's wisdom and ability could help him create the overpressure space device.

Of course, he could also find the intelligent machine genius Screwllum, but that would inevitably require a political exchange, paying no small price.

Compared to that, using Dan Shu and Ruan Mei to "freeload" Hei Ta's help was undoubtedly a safer and more cost-effective choice.

And the original activator of the overpressure space device was Boast/Big Talk.

Because Boast/Big Talk was a Rememberer, having a special state, able to avoid the fatal energy bursting out the instant the device was activated.

In this world, only Rememberers could survive after activating the device, but even so, if the reaction was slightly slow, they would be instantly devoured by the energy and die on the spot.

Xuan Ge slowly looked back, his gaze falling on Chang Ye Yue, his tone still flat, without the slightest ripple:

"If you are unwilling, I will send someone else."

"No need, no need to sacrifice others; I can complete it alone."

Chang Ye Yue shook her head, her tone firm; she did not truly blame Xuan Ge.

She just felt this man's thoughts were too deep, his heart too ruthless.

But beneath this ruthlessness lay a charm impossible to resist.

This time she chose to stay precisely to repay Xuan Ge's life-saving grace, and also with the intent of earning merit.

As long as she gained official status aboard Shen Wu Xian Zhou, even if she later wandered casually at the entrance of Men, no one would dare cause her trouble.

Nor would anyone dare touch her while she slept.

After all, in this Huan Yu, when it came to the authority of status, no one could compare to Shen Wu Xian Zhou.

"Dan Heng, do you think I'm ruthless?"

Xuan Ge withdrew his gaze, turned toward Dan Heng beside him, a faint smile on his face, and asked casually.

His words seemed a casual remark, but were actually meaningful.

He was saying that he had kept Dan Heng behind to fight alongside him in this war.

Dan Heng stood with his arms crossed, his expression calm, not caring in the slightest, and replied firmly:

"General, I am the Dragon Venerable of Shen Wu Xian Zhou; guarding the Xian Zhou is my duty, so I shall naturally share hardships with Shen Wu and stand or fall with the General—where is there any ruthlessness?"

Xuan Ge nodded slightly and raised his hand to stroke his collar.

That was the place Yao Guang had just carefully tidied.

He never expected Yao Guang to remember after so many years.

He still remembered their first awkward meeting, when he had been in a hurry to dress and his collar was askew.

That subtle concern added a trace of warmth to his icy heart.

In the rush of production, the last evacuating Hang Jian also departed from the Xing Xi where Shen Wu Xian Zhou was located, vanishing completely into the vast Universe.

Xuan Ge gazed in the direction the Hang Jian had gone and sighed slowly:

"Outsiders all say I am cruel, murderous, devoid of sympathy and compassion. I admit, it is indeed so."

His voice was calm, without the slightest defense, as if speaking of something unrelated to himself:

"The old relics of the Xian Zhou, the company's parasites, the world-destroying trash, the stubborn family powers, the arrogant geniuses...

These, I have fought, I have killed."

Xuan Ge paused; in his golden eyes, the blue light grew more intense, and his voice gained a touch of resoluteness and determination:

"But these accusatory voices have never ceased.

I have reflected; perhaps, I am simply not strong enough—not strong enough to silence everyone."

"Time cannot turn back; the chaos of that moment is the greatest thorn in my heart, it was because I was not strong enough then, because I was not strong enough, that countless tragedies unfolded."

"But this time is different..."

Xuan Ge raised his head, gazed toward the vast sky, his voice loud and powerful, resounding across the empty deck, carrying unquestionable determination:

"After this battle, the Hunt shall no longer be bound!"
