Protagonist:

Xuan Ge

The pale blue halo of the Hunt's power and the pitch-black halo of the Destruction's power collided violently.

Just as Huan Long was about to be crushed by this overwhelming pressure, a clear, cold, and ethereal voice suddenly rang out.

Not loud, yet carrying undeniable power, it pierced through the surrounding airflow and reached the ears of the three clearly:

"Xuan Ge, stop~"

As the words fell, a pure white figure seemed to slowly walk out from a shattered starlight mirror, stardust flowing around her.

Xing Xiao still looked exactly as when they first met, a pure white bodysuit clinging tightly to her figure, outlining smooth, perfect curves.

Her gray-purple eyes held not a ripple, cold and clear as ten-thousand-year ice.

Hearing this familiar voice, Huan Long's tense body instantly relaxed, her suspended heart finally dropping heavily.

The fear in her eyes gradually faded, replaced by a trace of relief and urgency.

Xing Xiao has finally come; with Xing Xiao here, no matter how overbearing Xuan Ge is, he wouldn't go so far as to truly exterminate them.

Xuan Ge slowly raised his eyes, his gaze landing on Xing Xiao; the Hunt's power around him converged slightly, and the phantom of Divine Lord Chi Gui also thinned a few degrees.

Gui Ji, who had been gripped in Xuan Ge's hand for a long while, felt stinging pain in his neck; his dice-shaped head shook slightly.

His tone carried a few parts helplessness and a few parts insistence on maintaining dignity; his voice was hoarse yet still retained a gentleman's gentleness:

"Lord Xuan Ge, you... should let me go now...."

He never cared about so-called face to begin with.

But as a gentleman who observes etiquette, being gripped by the neck like a chick by Xuan Ge, and in front of two female colleagues, Huan Long and Xing Xiao, it was ultimately still somewhat undignified.

The force of Xuan Ge's palm did not relax in the slightest; he did not immediately release Gui Ji.

His gaze locked on Xing Xiao, the probing in his eyes deepening further.

He wanted to see if Xing Xiao would make a move.

Xing Xiao seemed to have read the thoughts in Xuan Ge's eyes; her gaze swept past Xuan Ge, then indifferently brushed over Gui Ji gripped in his hand, without a ripple.

She slowly lifted her foot, stepping on the Void, her steps light, as if strolling amidst the Star River.

Step by step she approached Xuan Ge; the cold aura around her gradually intertwined with Xuan Ge's Hunt power, not clashing but instead exceptionally harmonious.

Xuan Ge, Huan Long, and Gui Ji — the three of them, their gazes coincidentally fell on Xing Xiao; for a moment, none could read her intent.

Xing Xiao walked before Xuan Ge, slightly raised her eyes, her gaze landing on his right hand holding Ya Jiao....

Without the slightest hesitation, she slowly raised her own hand, lightly stroking the back of Xuan Ge's hand.

Her fingertips were slightly cool; the moment they touched Xuan Ge's warm skin, Xuan Ge's body stiffened slightly, the Hunt power around him converging a few degrees more.

Huan Long, not far away, seeing this scene, her eyes instantly widened slightly, pupils contracting slightly, her face full of disbelief.

Who possessed Xing Xiao?

This is simply not the Extermination Monarch Xing Xiao she knew!

Xing Xiao did not mind Huan Long's surprise, nor did she acknowledge Gui Ji's confusion.

Xing Xiao's tone was cold and clear; she slowly spoke: "Still, let me do it~"

She slightly raised her eyes, her gaze meeting Xuan Ge's; a faint pink flashed in the depths of her eyes, silently signaling Xuan Ge to put away Ya Jiao and take her hostage.

In terms of value, she is far greater than Gui Ji, and moreover she seems to have grown accustomed to it.

Xuan Ge looked at the faint pink reflected in her gray-purple pupils... momentarily speechless...

His left hand lightly lifted, pushing Gui Ji to the side, letting him go.

But Xuan Ge did not comply with Xing Xiao's wish; although he put away Ya Jiao, he did not take her hostage.

Xuan Ge placed his hands behind his back; the Hunt power around him completely converged, the phantom of Divine Lord Chi Gui also completely dissipating into the Void.

He knew the purpose of these two people's trip was to rescue Xing Xiao, and he himself had intended to let Xing Xiao go.

Seeing Xuan Ge not act as she wished, a trace of extremely faint disappointment flashed in Xing Xiao's eyes, yet she said nothing more.

Xing Xiao slowly placed her hands behind her front, her figure shifting slightly, standing shoulder to shoulder with Xuan Ge.

Her face still held no expression; indifferent eyes swept over Gui Ji and Huan Long before her; in her gray-purple eyes hid a trace of hard-to-detect impatience.

If she could, she truly wanted to slap these two to death.

But she couldn't.

She desperately suppressed the impatience in her heart, warning herself over and over in her heart:

What Xuan Ge likes is her cold and noble appearance.

Cannot be impulsive, cannot lose composure, and cannot let Ling Sha take advantage of an opening.

At this moment, Xing Xiao seemed to gradually understand Ling Sha's methods.

When she succeeds in firmly grasping Xuan Ge in her hand and eats the fruit of victory, all the endurance will be worth it.

Gui Ji rubbed his still stinging neck; his dice head turned slightly, his gaze landing on Xuan Ge, instantly reading the indifference and warning in his eyes.

That look clearly said: if not for Xing Xiao being present, if not for this being the Third War of the Amphoreus people.....

Today, not a single one of you would leave.

Gui Ji instantly understood; without the slightest hesitation: "Rest assured, General, I have no conflict with you."

Huan Long, hearing Gui Ji's words, instantly glared at him fiercely; raging anger ignited in her tan-brown eyes.

Gui Ji is clearly secretly prompting Xuan Ge, directing all the spearheads at himself!

Huan Long forcefully suppressed the anger in her heart, let out a cold snort, and did not speak another word.

Xuan Ge did not pay Huan Long any heed; he knew clearly in his heart that Huan Long's existence was not entirely a threat to him.

With Huan Long present, those parasites hiding inside the Xian Zhou would certainly take the initiative to surface.

When the time came, he would be able to catch them all in one net and thoroughly purge the Xian Zhou's hidden dangers.

The Path of the Hunt — with him here, it would absolutely not be destroyed; Huan Long's ambitions were ultimately nothing but flowers in a mirror and the moon in water.

Xuan Ge no longer paid attention to Huan Long and Gui Ji; a faint blue Hunt radiance rippled around him, and the next second he turned into a blue-gold meteor, flying rapidly toward the Shen Wu Xian Zhou.

Left on the spot were only the three Monarchs of Extinction — Xing Xiao, Huan Long, and Gui Ji — along with the lingering pressure and aura permeating the air.

Xing Xiao gazed in the direction Xuan Ge had left without a word; a trace of extremely faint grievance and spoiled complaint flashed in her gray-purple eyes.

It was then covered over by cold detachment; her red lips parted slightly, and a freezing voice slowly rang out, carrying a chill lower than usual:

"Scum."

These two words held not a shred of hatred; on the contrary, they sounded like a complaint.

Huan Long walked quickly to Xing Xiao's side; following her gaze, she looked toward the direction Xuan Ge had vanished, and the anger in her eyes gradually faded.

Replacing it was a thread of resentment and dissatisfaction; she nodded in agreement, her tone full of complaining and accusation:

"Yeah~ he's not just scum, he's also extremely overbearing and rampant...."

"To toy with us like this, he simply doesn't put us and the Creative God of Destruction in his eyes at all......."

But before Huan Long could finish speaking, she was interrupted by Xing Xiao.

Xing Xiao's tone instantly turned piercingly cold, carrying an unquestionable hardness and warning; she said word by word:

"You are not allowed to speak of him like that!"

Huan Long was startled by this sentence from Xing Xiao and subconsciously took a step backward.

She looked Xing Xiao up and down.......

The Xing Xiao before her still had the cold, noble appearance, still wore the pure white bodysuit, still held that posture of keeping people a thousand miles away.....

A strong unease suddenly rose in Huan Long's heart; a terrifying thought spread wildly in her mind — the worst situation seemed to have already occurred.

Xing Xiao she seems to.....

Beside them, Gui Ji's Power of Joy also became active.....

This fun seems to have gotten a bit big.... but right now he absolutely must not laugh!

Huan Long steadied herself, suppressing the unease and surprise in her heart; after hesitating for a long time, she ultimately couldn't help but open her mouth to tentatively ask:

"Xing Xiao.... are you...."

Her words were not finished, yet she had already hidden her confusion within them.

She wanted to know what exactly had happened to Xing Xiao, why she had become like this?

Why would she so protect — that Divine Might General who had humiliated her thoroughly and whom she regarded as an enemy.

Hearing her question, a trace of impatience flashed in Xing Xiao's eyes:

"What's wrong with me? Properly practice the Creative God of Destruction's philosophy; recently, don't go provoking Xuan Ge."

As her voice fell, the star ring before Xing Xiao's eyes lit up again; starlight flowed around her, and her pure white figure gradually turned illusory.

She did not look at Huan Long and Gui Ji again; turning, she became a pure white meteor, flying rapidly toward the star domain where her Antimatter Legion was stationed.

Her figure grew smaller and smaller, finally vanishing into the pitch-black starry sky, leaving only a faint black star-ring afterimage slowly dissipating in the Void.

Huan Long stood in place, watching the direction Xing Xiao had disappeared, the corner of her mouth twitching slightly; for a moment she actually couldn't utter a single sentence......

In her heart only one thought crazily echoed:

.... Xing Xiao she.... has fallen into depravity????
