The Hua Hua Hua Di Huang's Shield drew a golden arc, smashing fiercely onto Lu Se's face.

Lu Se let out a wail; the Hua Hua Hua Di Huang's psychic power, scorching like a star in the kite shield, exploded on his face, burning the four blasphemous blessings in Lu Se's body, making Lu Se's soul experience burning pain.

He fell from the giant rock, collapsing on the ground, his face revealing pain, humiliation, and incomprehension.

The Lion slowly opened his eyes; the eyes shaped for him by the Hua Hua Hua Di Huang were so efficient that the pupils, which had not received light for ten thousand years, instantly adapted to the surrounding environment, and together with his ears, nose, and skin, sent various senses into the Lion's mind, allowing the Lion's brain to construct an impression of the surrounding environment in the most imperceptible instant.

He was in a cabin, there were two daemons, Lu Se, and Erebus.

Among them, that gray-black daemon was Be'lakor, stronger than in Lion's memory.

That daemon looking like a human was fighting Lu Se, Erebus, and Be'lakor.

Who is the enemy? Who is the companion? Or are they all enemies?

Why did he wake up here? What kind of mission does he shoulder now?

Regardless, kill Erebus first!

After the moment Lion's thoughts arose, he had already completed a series of actions: turning over from the giant rock, bypassing Lu Se to charge at Erebus, arriving before Erebus, and raising the power sword named "Loyalty" in his hand.

But before he could cut off Erebus's head, a shadow twisted.

The Caliban greatsword skillfully blocked Lion's Loyalty sword.

Lion felt slightly annoyed; his body was very weak and slow, so much so that his movements were a moment too slow.

Did Erebus cast some kind of blasphemous spell?!

Lion did not dwell too much on this matter; compared to Guilliman's multi-threaded thinking, he was better at forging his thinking into a sharp blade, stabbing at one target.

He knew that even though he was weak and slow now, there was only one person who could block his sword.

That man found him, raised him, taught him his initial swordsmanship and martial arts, but eventually betrayed him.

"Lu Se." Lion El'Jonson's tone was full of anger, a pair of Lion's eyes staring fixedly at Lu Se blocking before him.

Lu Se's appearance made his heart break instinctively; his face was full of madness, there were traces of being tortured on his body, and four twisted, ugly shadows were looming behind him.

"Lion, he is my man, don't kill him." Lu Se blocked Lion's sword, begging bitterly: "Only he can heal you."

"Heal?" Lion growled, then realized there were still wounds on his body, wounds left by Lu Se that had not fully healed.

"No, I didn't do it." Lu Se's face revealed wavering: "I didn't, I didn't kill you... Give me a chance to atone, I beg you, Lion."

"My brother, my son, my... my father, I beg you to let me atone..."

"Stupid, he is even cursing me, making me weak and unbearable." Lion fiercely pressed the sharp blade in his hand toward Lu Se.

But... but Lion still had some wavering in his heart, still had some hesitation, not because he believed Lu Se's words, but because the memories of the past with Lu Se were still lingering in his mind.

Lion hated this hesitation, hated that he still had old feelings for the traitor.

"Curse? Weak?" Lu Se was shocked by Lion's words; he hesitated for a moment and said: "Child, you are just old."

The Loyalty sword reflected Lion's face; it was an aged face full of wrinkles, his hair was almost gray, only a few golden hairs remained, and a beard was coiled on his face, making the Lion's once fierce face become soft, just like a sharp blade inserted into a scabbard.

"It doesn't matter, Lion." Lu Se revealed a smile he thought was gentle: "You see, I am still young; this is the effect of the Warp's great power; I know how to tame that great power, I can make you young again, we can still fight side by side, just like when we fought the Sirius Knights together..."

"Is it Lu Se talking to me?" Lion was not moved by Lu Se's words, but instead his tone suddenly became cold: "Or are those indescribable monsters residing in Lu Se talking to me?"

The Loyalty sword vibrated instantly, Lu Se's arm went numb, the direction of the Caliban greatsword in his hand deflected, Lion took the opportunity to swing his left hand holding the Hua Hua Hua Di Huang's Shield, smashing it together with his fist onto Lu Se's face.

Lu Se's figure flashed, borrowing the power given to him by Be'lakor to dive into the shadows, disappearing instantly, then appearing on Lion's right side, the Caliban greatsword fiercely slashing out.

And Lion also swung the Loyalty sword, sword and sword colliding, for a time neither could win, and both also perceived the existence of hesitation and delay in the other's sword.

"Lion! Let's put aside our differences first, okay!" Lu Se begged bitterly: "Solve the common enemy with me first!"

Lu Se looked at Nobi Daixiong, who was clashing with Be'lakor: "This is the incarnation of a newly born evil god, He has corrupted two Primarchs, we must stop Him."

Lion could judge that Lu Se was not lying, but could also perceive that Lu Se was hiding something, and Lu Se's spirit was extremely abnormal at this time, not worth trusting at all.

Lion raised his head slightly to look at that humanoid Greater Daemon, his eyes carrying hesitation, but in the next moment...

Golden light suddenly flashed in Nobi Daixiong's black eyes, and Be'lakor, who was fighting him, let out a terrified scream, retreating several steps in succession.

In an instant, the cabin was filled with a silent, destructive scent, the tassels of time seemed to slow down, and all things seemed to turn gray.

"False Hua Hua Hua Di Huang..." Erebus let out a terrified scream; he was the first to perceive what was residing in Nobi Daixiong's body.

Nobi Hua Hua Hua Di Huang slowly turned his head, looking in Lion's direction.

"Lion." Nobi Hua Hua Hua Di Huang spoke softly.

"Father?!" Lion felt the Hua Hua Hua Di Huang's aura, his whole body freezing for a moment.

He realized that his hesitation toward Lu Se just now had been seen by the Hua Hua Hua Di Huang.

"Kill them." Nobi Hua Hua Hua Di Huang said in a cold voice.

"Yes." Lion's tone also suddenly sank, becoming ruthless and sharp.

Then, in the blink of an eye, the golden light in Nobi Daixiong's eyes disappeared, all things returned to color, and the tassels of time returned to normal.

The only change was...

"Ah?!" Lu Se let out a sharp wail; a deep bloodstain was drawn on his neck; if his reaction just now had been a little slower, his head would have been cut off.

There was no more hesitation or delay in Lion's sword, only cold killing intent. "Lion?! Why?" Lu Se wailed; compared to death, compared to pain, Lion's decisiveness caused him more pain.

"The Hua Hua Hua Di Huang is watching! My Father is watching!" Lion's tone was cold like the deepest stream on Caliban, stabbing directly into Lu Se's heart.

"He is not your father!" Lu Se wailed: "I am! Lion, I am your father."

"He, that Dark King only treats you as his tool, He will destroy you, destroy me, destroy Caliban."

"I am the Hua Hua Hua Di Huang's blade, the Hua Hua Hua Di Huang's tool, as for Caliban... traitor, you destroyed Caliban."

"I didn't!!" Lu Se screamed in rebuttal.

Lion's sword edge was merciless, slashing at Lu Se's power armor, cutting a sharp opening, and Lu Se's blood seeped out from it.

Even though Lion was aging, even though there were wounds on Lion's body that had not fully healed, even though Lion had just woken up from a slumber, he was still a Primarch, one of the strongest among the Primarchs.

And Lu Se was still hesitating, still wavering, still unable to bear to strike, completely unable to resist Lion's sharp sword edge.

"Lu Se, don't hesitate anymore, the Lion's soul is controlled by the False Hua Hua Hua Di Huang, manipulated by the False Hua Hua Hua Di Huang."

"Only by defeating Him, killing Him, and then letting Doraemon, who has completed ascension, resurrect him, can Lion's soul be liberated."

Erebus's bewitching voice sounded, and those four blasphemous ghosts residing in Lu Se's body twisted their bodies, whispering in Lu Se's ears.

Lu Se's eyes were dazed, and then intense madness drowned his eyes.

"That's it! That's it! It's all the False Hua Hua Hua Di Huang's fault!"

"It was the False Hua Hua Hua Di Huang who took my Lion away, it was the False Hua Hua Hua Di Huang who destroyed Caliban, it's all the False Hua Hua Hua Di Huang's fault."

"You have fallen too deep, Lu Se!!!" Lion held the sword with one hand and swung it down; Lu Se hurriedly raised the Caliban greatsword to block, and Lion swung his left hand holding the Hua Hua Hua Di Huang's Shield, smashing it fiercely onto Lu Se's abdomen, instantly causing Lu Se's abdominal armor to cave in.

Lu Se spat out a mouthful of blood, then the madness in his eyes turned into substance, and psychic lightning surged from his eyes, stabbing directly at Lion's face.

Lion dodged, raised his shield, and blocked the lightning.

"Let's abandon the Hua Hua Hua Di Huang, Lion." Lu Se's words were full of madness, but his blade no longer showed mercy, slashing down in thousands of ways.

And Lion raised his shield like the wind, blocking all of Lu Se's attacks.

Lu Se said tirelessly: "Let's build an empire that belongs to us, you be the Hua Hua Hua Di Huang, I will be the Warmaster——————"

The Hua Hua Hua Di Huang's Shield smashed onto Lu Se's face, the dull sound deafening.

"Do you think I am Guilliman?" Lion roared and questioned.

Lu Se spat out a mouthful of blood, feeling dizzy.

Erebus did not care about these; he knew that neither Be'lakor nor Lu Se could last long.

He took this opportunity to immediately open that door, clearing this damn game.

However, before Erebus could react, the light door leading to the previous cabin twisted,

Bathed in blood, with a highly mutated body, six or seven meters tall, with ferocious wings casting a bloody shadow, Khârn crawled out from the light door.

Before Erebus could feel terror, Khârn rolled a forest of bloody wind and killed his way to Erebus's front, the Gorechild in his hand slashing down fiercely.
