Chapter 569

Su Han was on the move, while the members of the society discussed among themselves.

Tony isn't the richest: "Even if we might be on opposing sides, I must say—General Bude is utterly loyal to… the little Emperor!"

Become my son: "Indeed, it's deeply moving."

Miss Xia Shizi: "Even if abandoned by all! Even facing an unmatched foe! Yet General Bude never retreated a single step! Faced with a collapsing world, he chose to overthrow the little Emperor—and used his own body to protect him."

My sister is utterly unlovable: "."

It sounds fine on the surface, but this ambiguity is absolutely off the charts.

Xiao Tongtong: "Wahhh… so moving! This bond between ruler and minister!"

My sister is utterly unlovable: ""

Gao Ban realm looked utterly bewildered.

Damn, could it be that my mind isn't pure? Did I misinterpret? Actually, Miss Xia Shizi meant nothing more than simple loyalty between ruler and minister—but when Gao Ban realm recalled Miss Xia Shizi's dark past, he furrowed his brow and realized things weren't as simple as they seemed.

Kinomoto Sakura: "…"

So, was I really not supposed to join this society? I'm just a child—why do I have to endure this…? Aisi Desi: "I told you! Given the terrifying power shown by the president, dealing with enemies is nothing! If we hurry back now, we still have plenty of time."

Aisi Desi appeared calm within the society, but in reality, her heart was restless.

Although she had long known her strength paled terribly compared to the top tier of the society.

Yet seeing it firsthand, she still didn't know what to say.

General Bude, whose combat power matched her own, was effortlessly crushed—and in the end, even his worldview shattered.

Aisi Desi could deeply understand General Bude's feelings.

She had believed herself a supreme powerhouse of the world—until one day, she met a true supreme powerhouse, and realized her past self had merely been arrogant, a frog in a well.

If one's will isn't strong enough, falling into permanent despair isn't surprising at all.

Mengqi Lage: "…Though I'd rather not say much, given the current situation, the president clearly isn't heading back to General Bude's residence."

Aisi Desi: ""

Aisi Desi didn't react at first, but after Mengqi Lage's reminder and some thought, she…

Furrowed her brow.

Aisi Desi realized Mengqi Lage was right.

The direction Su Han was heading was definitely not toward General Bude's residence.

Aisi Desi: "Su Xiao Xiao."

President, what are you planning to do?"

Su Xiao Xiao: "Kill the xenomorphs!"

Su Han's figure appeared in the West District.

He stared expressionlessly downward, his Kenbunshoku Haki spreading in all directions, instantly detecting countless things.

On the surface, the West District was serene.

But within Su Han's perception, xenomorphs lurked in every corner.

They occasionally launched ambushes, dragging isolated individuals into alleyways.

Carrying out silent hunts.

"Has their number grown this vast already?" Su Han fell silent.

On the surface, all seemed calm—but Su Han's rough estimate placed the number of xenomorphs at no less than tens of thousands.

In other words, the dead numbered in the tens of thousands, possibly even reaching hundreds of thousands.

Su Han understood why the xenomorphs hadn't triggered widespread panic in the West District.

Unlike biochemical viruses, xenomorphs, as top-tier predators, mostly lurked in darkness.

They did not expose themselves under daylight.

Moreover, even if the capital's people discovered them, they likely wouldn't comprehend the danger of such creatures, instead mistaking them for dangerous species that had infiltrated the city.

Yet as Su Han observed through Kenbunshoku, his brow suddenly furrowed, then twisted into an expression of profound surprise.

"They've already started fighting among themselves—and even infiltrated the deepest part of the xenomorph nest? Is this the butterfly effect of reincarnators and transmigrators?"

Su Han was surprised, but after a moment's thought, he exhaled softly, "Lucky—I was heading to the xenomorph nest anyway! I'll kill the xenomorphs, and save them along the way."

Having made his decision, Su Han's body erupted with boundless Lei Guang; in a single breath, his figure vanished.

……Underground nest.

Hei Tong and Chi Tong leaned back-to-back, breathing heavily.

Si Zhe Ba Fang controlled immensely powerful corpses, fighting far away.

Constantly battling one xenomorph after another.

"Sister, how is your body recovering?"

Hei Tong's voice was hoarse.

Chi Tong's eyes remained calm; she coughed twice, staring at Murasame in her palm, her tone unchanging: "I'm ready to fight at any moment!"

"But I never thought you'd be willing to save me!"

"It's different. If you're going to die, you can only die by my hand—and become Ba Fang, forever accompanying me! Not become food for these… damn dangerous species."

Hei Tong's voice showed no emotion.

Chi Tong fell silent, offering no reply to the question.

A tall xenomorph broke through Si Zhe Ba Fang's blockade and silently rushed toward Hei Tong.

Hei Tong's pupils shrank sharply.

Controlling multiple corpses had stretched her physical limits to the extreme.

Her reactions had slowed drastically.

In the next instant, Akasha suddenly moved, her Murasame piercing through the alien's body.

A large amount of corrosive blood rained down, corroding vast stretches of land.

Due to Murasame's one-strike-kill property, the alien had only time to let out a shrill scream before dying completely.

Akasha's standing body swayed slightly, and she began coughing again.

She pressed her left hand against her abdomen.

Her abdomen had previously been pierced by the alien.

Blood flowed.

Added to the fact that there was no place underground to treat wounds, she could only fight while injured.

Now her body had reached its limit.

"Sister!"

Kuroko's eyes flickered with complexity, then returned to coldness. "Don't worry. We'll get out."

"There's no hope!"

Akasha let out a faint sigh, then sat back down, leaning her back against Kuroko's, and suddenly laughed bitterly. "I once thought the Empire was dark enough—there was not the slightest hope of salvation..."

"But I never imagined such a dangerous Hazard Species would appear."

"Capable of using any living being as a host, continuously birthing and transforming! Developing at an unimaginable speed... And among these vast numbers of Hazard Species, there are extremely powerful ones, no weaker than Imperial Tool users... Even more deadly is that this Hazard Species's nest lies beneath the Imperial Capital."

A hint of despair flowed through Akasha's eyes.

She and Kuroko had encountered each other a day ago; because their positions were hostile, they fought.

But halfway through the battle, they were ambushed by Hazard Species in the city.

Both Akasha and Kuroko were deeply shocked and puzzled by this.

Thus, driven by curiosity, they half-chased, half-fought, following the Hazard Species's trail and actually entering its nest.

It was only after truly entering that, after enduring countless waves of alien attacks and covert ambushes,

did they temporarily reach an agreement: to stop harming each other for now, and settle matters after escaping.

Yet even with the two sisters cooperating fully, they had now reached their limit and were about to die.

Akasha was not afraid of death; what she feared was the discovery of this extremely dangerous Hazard Species—a root of evil capable of destroying the entire Empire and countless lives.
