The red light from the spaceship outside shone into the room, covering the floor with a layer of red that, without close inspection, looked like a pool of blood.
Gu Chenyuan walked out silently, and when he reached the hall, he saw a man slowly walking in from outside.
The man peered into the room with his malicious triangular eyes, and when he spotted Gu Chenyuan, a wicked smile appeared on his face.
“We meet again,” the man said, his eyes gleaming with obvious excitement. “You must still remember who I am, right? I caused you quite a bit of trouble last time.”
Gu Chenyuan looked at him without saying a word. But a face devoid of any emotional fluctuation was clearly not what the man wanted to see.
"That won't do. How could you forget me?" The man drew his weapon from behind, a smile spreading across his face. "A disobedient little kitten needs to be taught a lesson until it dares not make another mistake and obeys obediently. What do you think?"
If someone is disobedient... they should be severely punished until they obey.
Even if his kitten makes a mistake or does something that displeases him, he can't bring himself to punish it. A soft cry of pain is enough to kill it.
The treasure he cherishes most will never make a mistake; the only mistake is this world that always causes him trouble.
“You should not exist,” a thick black mist swirled in the room, engulfing Gu Chenyuan’s figure, with only his voice coming from within the mist, “After you are all dead, he will have no excuse… to make me drink the antidote again, in an attempt to break this shackle.”

The second princess even had the leisure to order a cup of tea, which she sipped slowly, waiting for the good news to arrive.
General Li possesses extraordinary abilities and rich combat experience; defeating such a minor figure would be a piece of cake for him. The reason he didn't capture the person immediately is probably because he was having too much fun down there.
Ha, Gu Chenyuan and Ye Qingyun certainly didn't expect them to come knocking on their door so quickly, so they were caught off guard.
The reason she was able to find Gu Chenyuan was because she had used an emotion-separating agent, and Gu Chenyuan had also been given an emotion-separating agent.
This medicine has a wonderful effect that few people know about.
People who have used emotional separation agents have a peculiar perception of those who have also used these agents but failed to successfully separate their feelings from their lovers.
In other words, she has a vague feeling towards Gu Chenyuan, who hasn't been sown apart. It's like the emotional separator is urging her to destroy that relationship as soon as possible.
She found this place by following this feeling.
A person knocked on the door and shouted from outside, "Report! Second Princess, I have received a notification that the supernatural energy decomposer will arrive in ten minutes!"
"I understand, you may leave." The second princess replied casually, seemingly unconcerned.
This time, we probably won't need the machine. Whether it arrives in ten minutes or an hour, it doesn't matter. All we need is for the machine to arrive before they leave, make an appearance, let them take a picture, and pretend it's Gu Chenyuan being captured by the machine.
Hmph, that boorish General Li, I hope he doesn't hurt the beauty she desires—
A loud bang came from the machine, indicating that an anomaly had occurred in the monitored area.
The second princess looked up sharply and saw that in the area under close surveillance, which should be the house where their target lived, a person had been knocked out and fell to the ground.
Who is this? This... isn't this General Li?
The second princess watched in shock as General Li got up from the ground and coughed up blood.
Another person walked out of the house. Although he had signs of a fight, he had no wounds and appeared to be in good condition.
The Second Princess recognized this man; he was Gu Chenyuan, who had almost killed her before.
How could this be...? General Li couldn't even beat this person? And he was completely crushed!
What a piece of trash!
The second princess gritted her teeth, turned on her communicator, and shouted, "What are you all standing there for? Can't you see the target has come out? Attack him! Attack him!"
After the second princess gave the order, she saw the spaceships quickly adjust their equipment, and soon, various weapons bombarded Gu Chenyuan.
The second princess stared intently at the monitor screen and took a deep breath.
The reason high-level ability users are so strong is that ordinary weapons simply cannot harm them; they are disintegrated by their abilities before they can even get close. Furthermore, since their objective this time is to capture them alive, their weapons are not lethal; most are merely obstacles.
These weapons should theoretically be useless against Gu Chenyuan, but what if Gu Chenyuan is at his last gasp, and all the ease he feels is just an illusion, and he just happens to be knocked unconscious like this?
On the monitor screen, the weapons that flew towards Gu Chenyuan were intercepted by something in mid-air and turned to ashes without making a sound.
At the same time, Gu Chenyuan slowly walked towards General Li, who was still sitting on the ground, a long sword formed from black mist appeared in his hand, and his eyes were full of cold killing intent.
The second princess caught the fleeting hint of retreat on General Li's face and immediately spoke to him through the communicator, encouraging him: "General, hang in there! The ability decomposer will arrive in a few minutes, and he will definitely lose! Then you can do whatever you want to him and get your revenge!"
General Li was encouraged by this and quickly made a judgment.
No matter how powerful Gu Chenyuan is, he can't possibly defeat that machine. He tried it during the machine's testing phase, and even he felt short of breath and struggled to use his abilities when the machine was only in its initial power decomposition state.
Gu Chenyuan, on the other hand, would be facing a machine operating at its highest level, which he would certainly not be able to withstand.
This guy is so arrogant now, but once the weapons arrive, he'll be completely at our mercy!
General Li gritted his teeth, abandoned his thoughts of temporary escape, and with a burst of energy, attacked Gu Chenyuan.
————
Time ticked by, and the princess watched helplessly as their invincible General Li suffered repeated defeats, clearly at his limit and unable to hold on for much longer.
Why is this person so strong? Black hair, black eyes, unfathomable strength... Could it be... could this guy really be that legendary person?
The thought flashed through the Second Princess's mind, and it sent a chill down her spine.
If that's really the case, then if they don't deal with Gu Chenyuan quickly, things will be in serious trouble.
"Report! Second Princess, the ability decomposer has arrived!"
A loud report snapped the second princess back to her senses. She shouted, "What are you standing there for! Drop it! Quickly, launch it at Gu Chenyuan!"
"yes!"
The messenger left, and the second princess slumped into a chair, finally feeling a sense of relief.
Even if Gu Chenyuan really is that legendary figure, he still can't defeat the weapon they've been researching for years. This weapon was truly prepared specifically for this legendary person.
The machine was made of a special material. They had searched the entire universe for so many years, and the materials they found were only enough to barely complete one machine.
This machine becomes stronger when faced with a stronger opponent; or rather, the stronger a person's superpower, the more deadly it will be when they face that machine. If they are weaker, they will die less painfully.
Half the sky was illuminated by red light, which was a sign that the supernatural energy decomposer had been activated.
At the same time, everyone present who possessed superpowers felt short of breath and general discomfort.
The red light slowly contracted, eventually enveloping only one person.
Seeing Gu Chenyuan trapped in a cage-like beam of light, his powers in disarray, his eyes tightly shut, and unable to move, the Second Princess burst into laughter. She stood up from her chair and called out, "Let's go see that defeated dog!"
————
Gu Chenyuan breathed heavily, feeling the supernatural power within his body burning him like magma.
I feel so bad.
Gu Chenyuan opened his eyes and, through the red beam of light enveloping him, saw countless people and spaceships outside, forming an absolute encirclement in his direction.
He can't fall here yet. If he dies now, what will happen to Ye Qingyun?
He had to distract these people so that Ye Qingyun could escape safely.
Gu Chenyuan reached out and touched the light barrier, but it was not penetrated. Instead, it stretched with his movements, firmly imprisoning him inside.
Surrounded by this beam of light, Gu Chenyuan could clearly feel the supernatural power surging and then dissipating.
Gu Chenyuan closed his eyes, sensing the rate at which his superpower was draining away, and estimating how long he could last.
He must lure away or eliminate most of the troops so that Ye Qingyun can leave safely.
Ye Qingyun should have been living her own quiet life, researching what she loved until she grew old. It was because of his entanglement that Ye Qingyun encountered this life-threatening situation.
It's all because of his fault.
A tear of blood streamed from the corner of Gu Chenyuan's eye, and when he opened his eyes again, they were bloodshot.
The general, who looked quite disheveled, limped to a spot not far from Gu Chenyuan.
General Li spat out a mouthful of blood and cursed viciously, "Weren't you so powerful just now? Why aren't you powerful now? Heh, let me tell you, once your superpowers are completely gone, you'll be nothing more than a docile canary in my house, obeying my every command!"
General Li, as if remembering something, chuckled sinisterly and continued, "Oh, right, you have a beloved little lover, don't you? Don't worry, I'll take you to see him. Perhaps I can even borrow him to put on a show for you, to let you see how submissive he is beneath me, and how well he moans—"
Before he could finish speaking, General Li suddenly felt a sharp pain in his chest.
He looked down and saw a dagger made of alien energy stuck in his chest.
He was very familiar with this superpower; it had just forced him into a difficult situation.
But how could Gu Chenyuan still have the strength to gather superpowers? Shouldn't he be unable to move at all?
And it was even stronger than before, so sudden that he couldn't even notice it!
No, he has to go first.
General Li was about to retreat when he felt a chill on his neck, and the whole world turned upside down.
The last thing he saw was Gu Chenyuan, surrounded by black mist, with bloodshot eyes, looking like a demon.
————
The second princess originally wanted to mock Gu Chenyuan, but before she even got there, she saw General Li's body, which had been dismembered.
The second princess immediately stopped and had her guards surround her to protect her safety.
What's going on? The machine is broken, so Gu Chenyuan wasn't restricted at all?
No, the machine is intact, and Gu Chenyuan's superpower is indeed disappearing, but new superpowers are constantly emerging.
The second princess's eyes widened as she realized something.
She knows what happened!
Gu Chenyuan was deliberately forcing out the remaining supernatural abilities, because there were simply too many and too vast of them for the machine to handle in a short time! Gu Chenyuan intended to use these unresolved supernatural abilities to take them down with him!
The soldiers in the front row had begun to fall. The second princess gasped, and in a flash, the thought of retreating began to take hold.
She could have left first and returned after Gu Chenyuan's powers were exhausted. As long as she guarded this planet and prevented Gu Chenyuan from escaping, that would have been enough!
The second princess, after much deliberation, urgently ordered everyone to leave.
————
Gu Chenyuan watched as these enemies retreated as swiftly as they had come, disappearing into the horizon. Unable to hold on any longer, he slowly sat down, panting heavily.
Although I felt extremely unwell, I felt a sense of relief.
That's great! Ye Qingyun can escape the enemy's encirclement and get through this ordeal safely.
This departure is probably a final farewell.
Will Ye Qingyun find a new partner? Will she still remember him ten years from now?
He'll probably find a new partner. Qingyun is so wonderful in every way, and so likable. There must be countless people clinging to him, wanting to be with him.
Ye Qingyun was able to recover from the pain of losing Pu Tian last time, and she will definitely be able to do it this time as well.
Gu Chenyuan felt a deep sense of resentment in his heart. He clutched his heart and forcibly buried the resentment.
He was content as long as Ye Qingyun was alive; remembering him would only bring him pain.
Forget him and live a happier life.
