Chapter 181

187. 【Can You Stop Me Like This?】

"The energy field must cover the device area accurately and without error; otherwise, even the slightest deviation could trigger more serious consequences."

Zhou Xuan's voice revealed a rigor that could not be ignored.

He knew well that this battle was not only a contest of technology but also a test of wisdom and courage.

Xingluo patrolled the perimeter of the base, vigilant against any possible threats.

Her figure shuttled through the night like a ghost; every sword swing was accompanied by sharp sword energy, beating back the enemies attempting to approach one by one.

"Xingluo, be careful!"

Suddenly, an urgent alarm sounded; the ancient powerhouse opened his eyes, looking into the distance like a torch.

They saw a group of people in black appearing like ghosts; they were members of the mysterious organization.

"It seems they have already sensed our actions."

Zhou Xuan quickly pressed a few buttons, and the base's defense system started immediately; energy barriers blocked the people in black outside.

"Leave it to me."

Xingluo's figure flashed, and she appeared among the people in black.

Her sword technique was sharp and precise; every strike hit the enemy's vital point just right.

The ancient powerhouse did not show weakness either; he waved his hands, and a powerful energy fluctuation spread outward with him as the center, causing the surrounding people in black to retreat repeatedly.

After a fierce battle, the people in black were finally beaten back.

Xingluo returned to the base, panting but still maintaining vigilance.

"They won't give up so easily." She reminded.

With the completion of the final preparation work, Zhou Xuan took a deep breath and pressed the start button.

Instantly, the entire base was filled with light, and a huge energy field rose from the ground, rapidly spreading toward the device area.

That energy field emitted a soft and mysterious light, as if it could swallow all darkness and evil.

"Success!"

Zhou Xuan shouted excitedly.

Through the screen, he saw that the power of the device was being gradually neutralized by the energy field, and those energy fluctuations that had once run rampant were now becoming docile and peaceful.

However, at this critical moment, the leader of the mysterious organization appeared.

He wore a black cloak, his face hidden in the shadows, revealing only a pair of cold and ruthless eyes.

"Hmph, did you think you could stop me like this?"

He sneered, waved his hands, and a powerful dark force gathered toward him.

"Be careful!" Xingluo shouted, quickly blocking in front of Zhou Xuan.

The ancient powerhouse did not show weakness either, rushing up to engage in a fierce battle with the leader.

The battle was exceptionally fierce, and the collision of their powers produced huge shockwaves.

Although Zhou Xuan could not directly participate in the battle, he did not stay idle; he observed the battle situation while adjusting the parameters of the energy field to ensure its stability.

"Xingluo, ancient senior, hold on!"

He shouted loudly while accelerating his operation speed.

Finally, at a critical moment, he successfully adjusted the frequency of the energy field, causing it to resonate with the leader's dark power.

"What!" The leader was surprised to find that his power was actually partially absorbed by the energy field.

He roared angrily, attempting to break free from the restraint, but it was already too late.

Through the joint efforts of Zhou Xuan and Xingluo, the leader's power was gradually exhausted, and finally, he was completely restrained by the energy field and unable to move.

With the fall of the leader, the power of the device was also completely neutralized.

The crisis of the entire world was finally resolved, and people cheered and celebrated this great victory.

Zhou Xuan and Xingluo stood on the observation deck of the base, looking at the world in the distance that was recovering its vitality, their hearts filled with relief and pride.

They knew that in this battle, they not only saved the world but also proved the power of wisdom and courage.

188. 【We Are Back, Xingluo!】

The ancient powerhouse walked to their side and patted their shoulders with a smile.

"You did very well."

He said, "May your love be as eternal and beautiful as this world that has recovered its vitality."

After speaking, he turned into a ray of light and disappeared into the night sky, leaving only a deep blessing.

Zhou Xuan and Xingluo looked at each other and smiled; they knew this blessing was not only for them but also a wish for all beautiful things in this world.

They held each other's hands tightly, their hearts filled with expectations and longing for the future.

When the last wisp of Honkai aura was purified, Zhou Xuan and Xingluo stood at the end of the Astral Express, and before them was their familiar home—the outline of the Disaster Empire gradually becoming clear in the morning light.

They looked at each other and smiled, their eyes filled with both fatigue and relief, and more importantly, infinite longing for the future.

"We are back, Xingluo."

Zhou Xuan said softly, his tone full of emotion.

Along this journey, from initial strangers to now relying on each other for life, their feelings had long since transcended the scope of what words could express.

Xingluo nodded gently, her gaze gentle and firm: "Yes, we are back. And, we bring hope."

Their return was like a spring breeze, bringing unprecedented vitality and vigor to the Disaster Empire.

People walked out of their homes one after another to welcome these two heroes.

Their story quickly spread to every corner, becoming a legend that inspired countless people to bravely pursue their dreams.

After returning to the Disaster Empire, Zhou Xuan did not immerse himself in the joy of victory; he knew well that the real challenge had only just begun.

Utilizing the advanced technological knowledge learned in the Honkai World, he began a comprehensive transformation of the empire's technology.

In the laboratory, the lights were bright, and Zhou Xuan fought day and night with a group of top scientists.

They overcame one technical problem after another; from energy systems to defense systems, every upgrade in technology doubled the strength of the Disaster Empire.

"Lord Zhou Xuan, once this energy conversion technology is applied, our energy reserves will increase a hundredfold!"

A young scientist reported their latest achievements excitedly.

Zhou Xuan nodded with a smile, his eyes flickering with the light of wisdom:

"Very good, this is exactly what we need. Remember, the power of technology lies in serving the people; making our empire stronger is to protect more lives from the invasion of disasters."

At the same time, Xingluo was also changing quietly. She was no longer that lonely assassin but had become Zhou Xuan's most capable assistant.

The two fought side by side, jointly governing the Disaster Empire and solving one thorny problem after another.

In decision-making meetings, Xingluo displayed her keen insight and decisive decision-making ability.

She could always quickly grasp the key to problems and propose practical solutions.

Zhou Xuan admired her ability endlessly, and the tacit understanding between the two grew deeper and deeper.

189. 【Ancient Figure, Disappearing into the Horizon】

"Xingluo, you always give me surprises." Zhou Xuan said to Xingluo with a smile after a meeting.

Xingluo smiled slightly, her eyes flickering with confident light: "That's because I know that no matter what I do, you will support me."

As time passed, the love between Zhou Xuan and Xingluo also grew quietly.

They experienced countless tests and tribulations, but every difficulty made them cherish each other more.

Finally, on a sunny day, they decided to hold a grand wedding, inviting all friends and family to witness their happiness.

On the day of the wedding, the entire Disaster Empire was immersed in a festive atmosphere.

Flowers, ribbons, and laughter intertwined into a beautiful scroll.

Zhou Xuan wore a gorgeous suit, and Xingluo wore a pure white wedding dress, like an angel descending to the world.

Under the witness of the priest, Zhou Xuan and Xingluo held hands and made eternal vows.

"Xingluo, I am willing to use my whole life to love you and guard you; no matter the wind, rain, thunder, or lightning, or the passage of time, my heart will always belong to you." Zhou Xuan looked at Xingluo affectionately, his eyes full of tenderness.

"Zhou Xuan, me too. I am willing to walk through every tomorrow with you; no matter how bumpy the road ahead is, I will fight side by side with you." Xingluo's voice was gentle and firm, her eyes flickering with happy light.

Just as the wedding reached its climax, a strange light suddenly appeared in the sky.

That light was so dazzling, as if it could pierce through the clouds and illuminate the entire world.

People looked up one after another, their hearts filled with doubt and curiosity.

Zhou Xuan and Xingluo also felt this unusual aura. ===== CHAPTER 182 =====
