"If they could protect them, even for a moment."
"If, if they could delay a little longer."
"If only those gangsters had come a little slower."
"If, if...if I don't leave..."
When she said the last part, tears welled up in her eyes, and her originally indifferent face revealed unwilling regret and... deep self-blame.
Yes, in the final analysis. It was all her fault. She had clearly decided to leave her old self, but she had been out for too long, lived in comfort for too long, and even forgot the most basic sense of crisis.
So, God is punishing her.
I am so fragile, so vulnerable. After so long, and practicing for so long, I still can't even protect the person I want to protect, who is just an ordinary person.
As someone like me, what right do I have to vent my anger on others?
It was all her own fault, wasn't it? She wanted to be a new person, but couldn't escape the constraints of her past.
Oh.
The flame in her hand slowly died out, and Su Luoyin's face turned pale. Luo Wen slowly released his grip on her wrist.
Su Luoyin didn't react. Everything around her was noisy and meaningless to her. She stood there blankly for a moment, but suddenly looked up and said to Luo Wen, "Can you do me a favor?"
Su Luoyin looked around carefully, past Luo Wen. Here... A dead silence, horror, and blood. She frowned slightly and pursed her lips.
"You say." Luo Wen looked back at her indifferently.
Su Luoyin then said, "Help me...use the barrier technique to cover this place."
"Hmm?" Luo Wen was a little confused. He frowned slightly, obviously not understanding what Su Luoyin meant.
"The number of people is wrong." Su Luoyin said slowly.
"Someone previously told me about the general situation of those people, but it clearly doesn't match the current situation. Furthermore, their combat power against us was clearly not as strong as expected." Su Luoyin analyzed slowly, "So, there is only one possibility: their true leader hasn't arrived yet."
"Those who can truly control the behemoths must not be so simple."
"When they find out that these people did not go back and all died here, that will be the beginning of the real disaster." Su Luoyin's eyes flashed as he analyzed calmly.
"So, you want me to protect these people?" Luo Wen asked coldly.
"Yeah." Su Luoyin nodded and did not deny it.
"Why?" Luo Wen frowned slightly, obviously puzzled, "Don't kill them."
"kill?"
"What's there to kill? They're just some pitiful people on the verge of death. What's the harm in killing them?" Su Luoyin smiled coldly, tilting his head slightly to look at the two bodies hugging each other not far away. His expression relaxed a little, but full of helplessness, he whispered, "Besides, if Wanwan and Auntie knew about this after they died, they would definitely not want me to do this."
"Wanwan once told me that she liked the little brother who lived next door. The aunt said she loved the afternoons the most, hiding under the eaves and chatting with the other aunts in the village. They loved this place, their home. I can't destroy it with my own hands."
Su Luoyin lowered his head and smiled sadly, then suddenly raised his head and said seriously, "So, can you help me?"
