Return to the Ruins (VII)

Sandy stood on the beach, with the mighty East China Sea in front of her and the endless beach behind her.

The thick clouds in the sky were oppressive and dark.

She raised her sword to the sky and said, "I told you to sit there in the 81st Heaven until I go up and kill you."

Sandy saw the lightning flashing across the sky and heard the voice coming from the sky in the sea of ​​consciousness.

[Damn you, Ren Xiu! You tried to kill the sky, I will kill you today! ]

[You deserve to die! You deserve to die!]

Sandy curled her lips and smiled softly: "Then let's see, who can survive today, me or you!"

In the thick clouds, the first bolt of lightning fell and hit Sang Dai heavily.

Further away, deep in the forest.

Shi Yao stared closely at the east coast.

Bi Fang said: "Don't worry, Miss. This is a punishment from heaven. There are a thousand of them. She can't resist it."

Shi Yao lowered her eyes and said nothing.

Can't she resist?

Shi Yao didn’t know either.

Sandy always finds a way out of desperate situations and survives time and time again.

Asong showed a crack, picked up a pot of wine and drank it slowly.

He looked at the female cultivator who was resisting the lightning in the distance and smiled softly.

"Can you survive in this life?"

Can she survive this life in which he accompanies her again?

***

The first thunder has already fallen in the distance.

The clouds were thick and almost black, and the already heavy rain came even faster, falling like steel balls.

The heavenly punishment fell from the eighty-first heaven with such force that even though it was a hundred miles away, the aftershocks still made the disciples below the Golden Core stage cough up blood.

Su Xuan tried hard to stay calm, but his eyes were still involuntarily attracted by the heavenly punishment in the distance.

That was a tribulation thunder that was even more terrifying than the tribulation thunder of the tribulation. This time, the Heavenly Dao really took action, and it was not through the tribulation thunder of Sandy that he acted, but it was completely and openly bringing down heavenly punishment on Sandy.

In the eyes of the Four Realms, a tall nine-tailed fox stood on the top of the mountain and looked down upon them, its nine tails dancing and entwining in the cold wind, the golden divine seal on its forehead solemn and serious. He looked very indifferent, not caring at all about the heavenly punishment in the distance, the ending of Guixu Fairyland, or even whether the person struck by the heavenly punishment was his wife.

Yuan Lin said in a trembling voice: "Su Xuan! Do you know what Sang Dai is doing? That is the Guixu Fairyland, that is the Guixu Fairyland!"

Another person came out and pointed at Su Xuan with two fingers together: "You are a person with awakened heavenly spiritual roots, yet you are so confused!"

"That's Guixu! That's the Guixu wonderland!"

"Guixu cannot be destroyed. If Guixu is destroyed, the four realms will be destroyed! You are destroying the world!"

"Su Xuan, are you crazy?"

Liu Lixue stood on the city wall, his body swaying. He knew why Su Xuan and Sang Dai wanted to destroy Guixu Fairyland, but the world did not know. The world did not believe that the way of heaven would destroy the world, and the world did not believe in the existence of the Four Sufferings.

Originally, they could have destroyed Guixu Fairyland quietly, but unexpectedly, they are now blocked here. Su Xuan has to stop these people, while Sang Dai has to bear the heaven's punishment alone.

How is this possible?

How is it possible to do this...

The demons in the city heard clearly the words of their own master, as well as the curses directed at their own master by the monks outside the city.

"My Lord... How could my Lord do this..."

"Madam... Madam is so kind, how could she destroy Guixu Wonderland..."

"Impossible... Impossible..."

Knowing how good a demon king Su Xuan is and knowing how kind Sang Dai is, the demons cannot accept everything that is happening now.

Su Xuan said in a cold voice: "Guixu Fairyland will be destroyed today. If you must break in, then go ahead."

Yuan Lin drew his sword and slashed at Su Xuan: "Kill him! He is also a sinner for blocking us from saving Guixu!"

With one person taking the lead, the anger of the crowd was vented. In an instant, tens of thousands of people found their weapons and attacked Su Xuan.

"The disciples of the Immortal Sword Sect, kill the demon king Su Xuan and go save Guixu!"

"Of the thirteen realms of the demon world, six realms will go all out to break through and return to the ruins. The remaining seven realms will follow me to kill Su Xuan!"

The nine-tailed fox dodged Yuan Lin's sword with a leap, and the cultivator in the Spirit Transformation Realm was hit down by his tail.

He leaped up and down and rushed into the crowd. His figure, like a hill, ran quickly among the crowd, causing the ground to shake wherever he passed.

Tens of thousands of people rushed towards him, and the gate of the demon world was also broken open by the demon cultivators, and the demon soldiers rushed out with weapons in hand.

Guixu concerns the four realms. Even if Su Xuan is the demon king and even if he governs the demon world well, once he harms the interests of everyone, he will stand on the opposite side of everyone, and everyone will surround and kill him.

A demon citizen saw Liu Lixue on the city wall and shouted, "Liu, please lead the Xingque Palace to defend Guixu together!"

"Butler Liu, the Lord has rebelled!"

"Don't let the demon world become a disgrace to the four worlds, butler!"

The most powerful people in the demon world are only Su Xuan and Liu Lixue. Xingque Palace controls 70% of the demon world's military forces, but Xingque Palace only listens to Su Xuan and Liu Lixue.

Su Xuan, who was far away, had long since disappeared, as he was drowned by the thousands of people rushing towards him. Those cultivators came from different sects. They were human cultivators, demon cultivators, and ghost cultivators. They had different standpoints and had fought fiercely before, but now they had a common goal -

Kill Su Xuan and prevent Guixu from being destroyed.

Liu Lixue's ears were filled with the roars of the demons, asking him to lead the Xingque Palace...

Killed Su Xuan.

He also heard a sigh, and Peacock looked over with trembling breath.

Ying Heng, who was standing by the city wall, still stood with his hands behind his back: "Mr. Liu, follow your heart and do what you want."

Having said that, he summoned the Spring Shadow Sword.

A cultivator at the full stage of Mahayana, one with awakened heavenly spiritual roots, even though his soul had just been repaired and his spiritual roots had just been fused not long ago, the sword power around him gathered into a strong gale, blowing up his wide robe and causing his messily tied hair to flutter in the wind.

Ying Heng has the wood element as his spiritual root. Chunying's sword energy is full of green, but the strong wind is deadly.

He leaped down the high wall and chopped with his sword. Wherever the Spring Shadow Sword passed, the ground collapsed inch by inch, and the monks around the sword fell into a deep pit.

Ying Heng rushed to the barrier, and the green sword wind swam past like a flexible vine, blowing away all those who tried to cross the barrier.

The nine-tailed fox shook off the surrounding cultivators, and its fox eyes looked towards Ying Heng.

Ying Heng, holding his sword alone, looked him in the eye and said, "Xiao Xuan, just save your life, don't show mercy!"

He could see that Su Xuan had been holding back. These cultivators did not know the truth and foolishly believed that Heaven would preserve Guixu. However, there were too many young disciples, who were the future pillars of the Four Realms. It was not easy for them to grow to this point. Perhaps after staying with Sang Dai for too long, Su Xuan's style of doing things had become much softer.

If the monk who was undergoing tribulation had killed someone, many monks here would have died today.

He was so restrained in his fight that he dared not kill them or seriously injure them.

Ying Heng swung his sword and pierced the shoulder of the man who was about to sneak attack: "Guixu will be destroyed today. Whether you believe it or not, we are saving you. If anyone leaves this barrier and wants to go to Guixu, I will kill him with the sword in my hand!"

Su Xuan retracted his eyes, and the karmic fire burned vigorously from under his feet. The nine-tailed fox's silver hair was carrying the blazing karmic fire. He rushed into the crowd, and the karmic fire burned the clothes of the surrounding monks, and screams continued.

The demon soldiers roared: "Butler! Our Lord is confused, and you are also confused! Guixu must not perish!"

Liu Lixue closed his eyes and let out a long sigh, as if he had finally made up his mind.

"The Lord did the right thing, and the Madam did the right thing, but it was the way of heaven that was wrong."

For tens of thousands of years, the four realms have been blindly loyal to the Heavenly Dao. Even though they are dissatisfied with the rules set by Him in their hearts and are not convinced why the Guixu spiritual power can only be used by those with awakened heavenly spiritual roots, no one has ever dared to betray the Heavenly Dao over the years. Now they have actually met a few people.

The top of the folding fan in Liu Lixue's hand slashed out with more than a dozen sharp blades. Peacock flipped over and jumped down. In the blink of an eye, the man in red was submerged by the figures of several people.

His words came from the void.

"Whether the demon world will send troops is up to you all to decide. I am no longer the steward of Xingque Palace, so I will rebel against the demon world as well."

His status constrains him to lead troops to guard Guixu, but Liu Lixue knows the truth and believes in all the decisions of Su Xuan and Sang Dai, so he can no longer be the butler of Xingque Palace.

The demon soldiers couldn't believe it. The three people who were surrounded and killed on the battlefield, Su Xuan, Ying Heng and Liu Lixue, two of them were from their demon world.

The two stewards of Xingque Palace resigned from their positions just to protect a sinner who was about to be destroyed?

The leading general raised his curved sword and shouted in grief: "Go to Xingque Palace... to fight!"

If the demon world does not fight, it will be a rebellion against the other three worlds, and will inevitably be in a difficult situation in the future.

Su Xuan and Liu Lixue both knew this, so they never stopped the demon world from going to war.

When tens of thousands of demon soldiers from the Xingque Palace teleported from various cities to the main city and were about to rush to the gate of the demon world with their weapons in hand, a thick ice wall rose from the ground, a thousand feet wide, blocking their way.

The air around me froze in an instant, leaving only floating ice chips. It was as if every breath was filled with cool air, so cold that my heart and lungs were frozen.

The demon soldiers of Xingque Palace looked up and saw a person hanging in mid-air. His frosty white hair hung down to his ankles, his eyebrows and eyelashes were also white. His facial features were obviously delicate and perfect, but his eyes were cold and emotionless.

They didn't know who this person who suddenly appeared was, and the leading general drew his sword and pointed it at her.

"Who are you to dare to stop Xingque Palace?"

Tian Yuxue didn't say anything nonsense, and said calmly, "Dahan."

Thick, cold ice covered the ground inch by inch, freezing the entire surface of the main city.

The civilians had long been dispersed by the soldiers of Xingque Palace, and now the alleys in the city were filled with demon soldiers who had gathered from all directions.

The power of severe cold froze the spiritual power of these demon soldiers. In a blink of an eye, all of their feet were frozen in place. The demon soldiers with low cultivation levels even had their calves frozen, while those with high cultivation levels had only the soles of their shoes stuck.

The accident happened too suddenly. By the time these people reacted, Tian Yuxue had already raised his hands, and the air around him condensed into a swirling airflow, which was about to hit them like a tornado.

This girl came with murderous intentions!

"Line up where you are!"

"yes!"

The demon soldiers were well-trained and were by no means useless. Every team followed the commander's orders and raised their hands to form a seal. A magic circle emerged from the ground, gradually breaking through the freezing ice that was about to snow.

The barrier included them inside, resisting the strong wind condensed by Tian Yuxue with frost and snow, and even forced Tian Yuxue's strong wind to retreat towards herself.

Tian Yuxue's face was obviously much paler. Although she had no expression on her face, the general closest to her could still see it.

"Her cultivation is not high, she can only mobilize coldness and form a fire formation!"

"yes!"

The defensive formation just now suddenly caught fire. The deep red flames melted Tian Yuxue's strong wind. She turned her head away and spat out large mouthfuls of blood.

The great fire was designed to counter her great cold. Her cultivation was not high to begin with, and she had just used up almost half of her cultivation to condense an ice array to freeze these demon soldiers in place, but it could only last for half an hour at most. Now that she encountered the fire array, she was unable to resist.

The ice that had just bound the demon soldiers was melting at a speed visible to the naked eye. The general with the highest level of cultivation broke free from the ice, and a huge fire ignited on his curved sword. He jumped high into the sky with his toes touching the ground and chopped at the snow in the sky.

Tian Yuxue frowned and was about to form an ice shield for protection when someone grabbed her shoulders and pulled her behind him. The raised black hair brushed her face, and Tian Yuxue smelled a familiar fragrance.

She had previously occupied Ji Cang's couch, and his couch had this kind of agarwood scent.

The demonic energy condensed into a curved blade, and the intruder easily blocked the general's sword and kicked him to the ground.

Tian Yuxue shouted blankly: "...Jicang?"

A certain demon turned around and looked at her, obviously angry, just like when he was slapped by Tian Yuxue before.

She knew she was in the wrong, and as soon as he raised his hand someone jumped into his arms.

"You can't hit me. If you hit me, I'll die in front of you!"

Ji Cang stopped raising his hand. Before he could feel happy for a moment, the anger that he had just suppressed rose up again when he heard her words.

When was he going to hit her?

No, when did he ever hit her?

"Get out of my way!"

"I don't!"

"Then I will beat you to death!"

"Then you can kill me!"

The demon soldiers looked at the two people entangled in the air in silence.

The general who was kicked to the ground got up and pointed his long sword at the void: "Demon Lord, are you going to stop Xingque Palace from going into battle?!"

Ji Cang tried to pry open Tian Yuxue who was hugging him tightly in his arms, and looked over when he heard the words: "Are you going to attack your Lord?"

"But the Lord has rebelled! Madam is going to ruins!"

Before Ji Cang opened his mouth, Tian Yuxue in his arms suddenly turned her head to look at him, her young face full of anger: "You are talking nonsense! You are stupid! Do you have a pig's brain?"

General: “…”

The demon soldiers: “…………”

Tian Yuxue seemed very angry, and kept on talking: "Has Su Xuan ever harmed you during his years in power? Was it him who destroyed the Twelve Palaces? Is it because of Su Xuan that you can live a hundred years of peace now? Was it he who found your spiritual veins? Did he pay for these shops and academies?"

"Sang Dai is an even better person. She is extremely kind-hearted. When she was in the fairy world, she protected the fairy world. After coming to your demon world, she is also doing her best to protect you. Even if you don't believe in Sandy, what about Su Xuan? Su Xuan is such a confused person. Just because Sandy is his wife, he will help her destroy the four worlds?"

Tian Yuxue said she was annoyed and pushed Ji Cang away. The demon was caught off guard and was pushed hard by her, falling heavily to the ground.

He gritted his teeth and said, "It's going to snow!"

Tian Yuxue jumped to the ground, a petite girl pointing at the group of tall and burly demon soldiers and cursing at them.

"The Guixu Spiritual Vein was eroded ten thousand years ago. Do you know why? It was the Four Sufferings, the Four Sufferings that can drive people crazy. Don't you feel that your cultivation speed is getting slower and slower by practicing the spiritual veins derived from the Guixu Spiritual Vein?"

"Sang Dai destroyed the spirit veins to make you or, now it is even more so. You don't believe me, Ji Cang, and Sang Dai, but you must believe Su Xuan and Liu Lixue, right? Do you think they are all confused?"

The demon soldiers were silent, looking blankly at the alleys in the main city.

The demon world has been prosperous in recent years. Su Xuan is not warlike and has a smart mind. He is also particularly protective of his own people. He has protected the demon world very well, searching for spiritual veins for them to practice, setting up academies to teach skills, and investing in businesses. The Xingque Palace was founded by Su Xuan. All the demon soldiers respect and are loyal to Su Xuan, and are excited that the demon world has such a powerful monarch.

When two heavenly-level spiritual root awakeners came to rule the demon world and Su Xuan said that Sang Dai was the demon queen of the demon world, they were all very happy.

He didn't mind Sandei's identity as a cultivator, because he had heard of the name of this eldest lady of the Sword Sect.

Very strong, very kind, and good-tempered.

Could such a person be someone who intends to destroy the world?

Ji Cang climbed up, brushed off the dust on his body, and glanced coldly at the vast crowd of demon soldiers in front of him.

"I don't want to talk about Su Xuan's character, but Sandy, I can assure you."

"It is your blessing to have her as the Queen of your demon world."

"If you are loyal to her, the demon world will become the best of the four worlds in the future. As long as she and Su Xuan are alive, there will never be war."

Ji Cang walked up to stand shoulder to shoulder with Tian Yuxue, and glanced coldly at someone beside him, who shrank his neck in fear.

He was very angry at this moment. He was angry that she had the courage to confront these people, and he was angry that she was so heartless as to run away without looking back.

But that little bit of anger was not enough to make him really ignore her, and now was not the time to settle the score. Ji Cang retracted his gaze and looked at the demon soldiers in front of him.

It's ridiculous that a demon lord actually came to persuade these monsters not to go to war against their master and lady.

"I have also resigned from the position of Demon Lord, and your Lord has also resigned from the position of Monster Lord. Liu Lixue is not qualified to be the steward. Our status restricts us to protect Guixu, but——"

Ji Cang's voice suddenly turned cold, and he said in a deep voice: "Only if you help Sandy destroy Guixu can you survive!"

"That's Guixu... That's the foundation of the four realms..."

"That's Guixu... I can't, I really can't..."

There were people whispering constantly.

No one wants to draw a sword against their own lord and lady, but what they want to destroy is the ruins, and what they want to betray is the way of heaven.

The heavenly punishment in the distance is still continuing, with lightning striking one after another. I don’t know how many times it has struck. Is Sandy still alive?

"Everyone, everyone——"

A person teleported hurriedly from the void.

Her body was covered in blood and dust, her face was full of tears, and she seemed to have used up all her spiritual power to teleport.

She fell to the ground, but quickly got up.

Someone recognized her identity: "Are you... Huaying?"

A nun in Yaoshan County who takes care of those children.

Hua Ying panted and said loudly: "What the Demon Lord said is true, it is true! That inexplicable black gas enveloped Yaoshan County, and many monks went crazy. It was Madam who came to save me and those children. It was Madam who used that vine to eat those crazy monks... No, they are no longer monks, they are evil spirits!"

Huaying held up a dozen vines and said in a loud voice, "This is the vine!"

But the vine in her hand was taken away. A golden light flashed before her eyes, and someone took her vine and teleported in front of the general who had just fought.

He moved quickly, grabbed the general's wrist and stabbed it hard with the vine.

The incident happened too suddenly. No one knew where this person came from. Only Ji Cang noticed his arrival, but he ignored him.

The vines draw out spiritual energy, and the black air entangled with that spiritual energy...

The general was stunned, and the demon soldiers all stopped.

Tan Huai smiled gently and raised the vine in his hand. A strand of black gas was hanging on its thorns.

"These are the four sufferings that the Guixu Spirit Vine devoured. The Guixu Spiritual Vein is full of the four sufferings. You practice with the spiritual veins derived from the Guixu Spiritual Vein, so naturally you also have the poison of the four sufferings in your body. A hundred years ago, Sang Dai severed the Guixu Spiritual Vein, which prevented the poison of the four sufferings from spreading to the spiritual veins outside. That's why you have been able to live so long."

"Sang Dai has sent me a message that the Four Bitternesses are now all over the Guixu of the East Sea. The poison of the Four Bitternesses has taken root in the Guixu. If the Guixu is not destroyed, the Four Realms will surely perish. From the beginning to the end, it is the Heavenly Dao that wants to kill the Four Realms."

Tan Huai dropped the vine, and the monk, wearing a cassock, put his hands together and performed a Buddhist salute.

"I am Tan Huai, a person with awakened heavenly spiritual roots. I have rebelled against the Zen sect. What I have done does not represent the stance of the Zen sect and has nothing to do with the Zen sect. Today I have come to help Sang Dai destroy the Guixu fairyland."

There was total silence all around, and the demon soldiers felt that everything that happened today was simply bizarre.

Heavy rain fell on the protective shield, and the sound was one after another, as crisp as falling pearls.

Sang Dai, Su Xuan, Tan Huai, Ji Cang, and Ying Heng were all people with awakened heavenly spiritual roots, and they were all helping Sang Dai to perish.

"Could it be... that God really wants to kill us..."

They looked towards the distant void. The thunderclouds were so thick and dark that no light could be seen. The winding lightning bolts were thick and dark purple, striking down one after another.

Tan Huai's eyes were still gentle, and he whispered softly: "If you believe in the poor monk, now go and help your master. This is what you should do."

"Su Xuan and Sang Dai never intended to harm you from the beginning to the end."

***

There was a fierce fight outside the demon world. The nine-tailed fox was covered in blood, and the thick blood was flowing all over the ground. The barrier that had been set up was about to be broken.

He still had to save his spiritual energy to maintain the barrier, and he also had to resist the monks who rushed towards him. He had forgotten how long he had been fighting. In short, his mind was dizzy, but the thunder in the sky kept reminding him——

Sandy is returning to the abyss, bearing the punishment from heaven, she is fighting against the way of heaven.

He had to clear a way out for her.

The roar of the foxes penetrated the chaotic battlefield.

Ying Heng knelt on one knee on the ground, coughing and spitting out large mouthfuls of blood, with blood hanging on his lips and about to fall off.

There were hundreds of thousands of people here, and most of the troops were held up by Su Xuan alone. He used his nine-tailed fox body and the Karma Fire Array to resist, and shared a lot of pressure for Ying Heng and Liu Lixue. However, even if the three of them had high cultivation levels, they were outnumbered and still could not resist.

Sandy's heavenly punishment has not yet been completed, and I wonder what she is doing now.

Several long swords came slashing towards him. Ying Heng gritted his teeth and raised the Chunying Sword to block them.

The swordsman in white clothes landed on the ground gracefully, his long sword like a dragon knocking down the swords of more than a dozen people. He held the Xingjie sword in one hand, and the jade crown tied high on his head symbolized his identity.

"Sect Master Shen?"

"...Ci Yu?"

Shen Ciyu looked back at Ying Heng who was kneeling on the ground: "Immortal Lord Ying Heng."

I haven't seen him for these years. When they were in Linglongzhen, Ying Heng didn't pay attention to Shen Ci Yu. After more than a hundred years of not seeing him, he is no longer the young boy in his memory. He has grown into a sect leader who can stand on his own.

"How...how did you get here?"

Shen Ciyu curled her lips and smiled softly: "Come and help her."

"Master Shen! What do you mean?" someone asked hurriedly.

Shen Ciyu looked over and replied, "I am no longer Sect Master Shen. I have resigned from the position of Sect Master of the Sword Sect. I came here today just to stop you."

He raised the Xingzhe Sword and said in a clear and cold voice: "The four sufferings have returned to the ruins. It is impossible to eradicate them. It is necessary to eliminate the ruins."

"You want to betray the four realms?!"

"He's not the only one who betrayed."

Two voices rang out one after the other.

A man broke in from outside the barrier. Su Xuan received a message so he didn't stop them from coming in. He just stopped the monks inside from leaving.

The ghost cultivator who broke in had a pale face and a strong ghost aura around him.

"The Lord of the White Blade, Fu You?"

Fu You raised his eyebrows, nodded and said, "I didn't expect that after not leaving Bai Ren for such a long time, someone would recognize me."

"You want to rebel too?!"

"Otherwise, what am I doing here?" Fu You said with a smile, "But I am no longer the master of Bai Renli. I am just a casual cultivator."

The monks were incredulous: "You are all crazy, all crazy, you have all been bewitched by Sandy!"

Ying Heng staggered to his feet. Su Xuan in the distance was once again overwhelmed by tens of thousands of people. He was seriously injured and could not even maintain the barrier for long. The barrier was about to dissipate.

Ying Heng called softly: "Ci Yu..."

Shen Ciyu understood: "I'll go help him!"

He teleported away, and the monks had no time to stop him.

Fu You raised his hand and summoned his weapon: "I came here today to stop you. If you don't die in Guixu, you will all die. If you try to break out today, I will really kill you."

"You dare to betray the way of heaven! You are seeking death!"

Fu You was surrounded in an instant, and only the sudden ghostly aura proved that he was still alive.

Ying Heng's troops were blocked by Fu You, and he hurriedly turned back to reinforce the barrier.

The golden spiritual power enveloped the barrier, and the barrier that was originally shaky was somehow broken. Before Ying Heng could react, the broken barrier was replaced by a new one, which was a more powerful and more difficult to break protective barrier.

Ying Heng was caught off guard by a handsome young face. The man was dressed in golden clothes and was bowing his baggage towards Ying Heng.

"My name is Qiu Chengxi, and I have met Immortal Lord Ying Heng."

Ying Heng heard from Liu Lixue that Qiu Chengxi was a master in formations and mechanical techniques.

His formation was such that Su Xuan and Sang Dai had to put in a lot of effort to break it.

Qiu Chengqi raised his head and said in a deep voice: "I received a message from my sister. She told me something. I know it's ridiculous, but I believe her. She won't hurt anyone, so I came to help you."

He held a curved blade in his hand and said firmly, "You may go and fight, Immortal Lord. With me here, no one can break this formation."

Ying Heng could see that he used his own soul power to form this formation.

This is the strongest formation that Qiu Chengxi can form. Unless he dies, no one can break it.

Ying Heng pursed his lips slightly and bowed in return: "Thank you, Mr. Qiu."

They all trusted Sandy, so they were willing to put their lives on her.

Betraying the will of heaven, with no regrets.
