Chapter 94: Protecting You
There was no one around Xin Hongying, and the officers and soldiers who were like comrades-in-arms had stayed away from him during this period.
The people around him subconsciously surrounded him, with the cold and bloody city gate behind him.
He has nowhere to go.
No one took the initiative, and the people were struggling in their hearts.
That’s the emperor sitting on the dragon throne!
To exchange one person's life for the lives of the entire city, no one would not be moved, and no one would not have thought of this.
Everyone wants to live, and no one wants to die.
The city gate, which had been bustling just a moment ago, was now as quiet as death. Not even a cough could be heard.
They are all waiting for an opportunity, a chance to rush in, the only thing missing is... someone to take the lead.
Xin Hongying, the center of the encirclement, moved, and everyone took a step back in fear. The people all remembered his overwhelming force.
He put down the stick in his hand that he was using to prevent the people from leaving the city and protect them.
With a thud, the black stick rolled on the mud for a moment.
The people looked at each other in bewilderment. The tyrant's barehanded weapons made them hesitate. They had reason to kill a tyrant who was unwilling to save the people.
But he hesitated when faced with an emperor who was willing to sacrifice his own life to save the people of the entire city.
Xin Hongying looked at the people with a look that was neither sad nor happy, looking at the faces that were longing to live, and slowly closed her eyes.
His heart completely turned cold, surrounded by indifference and loneliness, Xin Hongying felt an unprecedented calmness, and he laughed at himself.
It turns out that dealing with the poisonous insect is so simple. As long as his heart is as dead as ashes, nothing around him can affect him in the slightest, and he will remain calm and without anger.
He did not accept his fate, but he was aware of the inevitable outcome: he would become an emperor whose head would be chopped off by his own people.
[Beep! Beep! Beep! Warning… Warning…, the target's blackening value… 88%… 95%… 99%!!!]
[Task progress value is 17%...0%]
Shen Tingyu's eyes suddenly widened. What happened to the tyrant during the days she was away?
[Once the Darkness Value reaches 100%, there's no way to lower it. Host, all the progress you've worked so hard to make on the quest has been reset to zero!]
【Returned to zero! 】
[Lord God! This is… so terrifying. I’ve never seen anything like this before.]
[Host, it's not easy for you. Xiao Qi will definitely fight to the death to apply to the superiors.]
[I will definitely help you get that abnormal compensation...]
[Wuwuwu... Xiaoqi doesn't want you to fail the mission, you must...]
Xiao Qi's voice rang crazily in Shen Tingyu's mind, extremely harsh. She was no longer able to make out what she was screaming or nagging about.
Shen Tingyu's breathing was disordered now. The wind blew on her face and body, like a hurricane tearing and shattering her body.
Her whole body felt like she was falling into an icy cave, and she still came back too late.
The Snow Eagle was galloping at a lightning speed, but Shen Tingyu seemed unaware of it. She prayed in her heart, "Faster! Faster!"
It’s too late!
What on earth had happened to the tyrant? Why had his dark energy skyrocketed, almost reaching 100%...
The Snow Eagle let out a long, sharp cry from high in the sky, coming from far away and tearing the deathly silence of Yunzhou City.
It brought Xin Hongying a glimmer of life and hope.
Xin Hongying suddenly opened his eyes, a hint of surprise appeared in his cold eyes, and he looked up at the sky.
It was the cry of the snow eagle, the fairy was back.
Between heaven and earth, one looking up and the other looking down, their eyes met in the sky, like a burst of fire.
There were mixed feelings in my heart, but my manic heart calmed down and started beating rapidly.
Shen Tingyu took in the scene of Xin Hongying being surrounded by hostility, and she didn’t know what was going on.
This is what made him the hostile and helpless existence.
Her heart was pounding, and she thought that she understood the feeling of standing in opposition.
From childhood to adulthood, she has heard countless voices like this: she has no mother, no father, she is an alien, and we should not play with her.
She knew that she had always been a coward. Even though she had the most powerful person in the world protecting her and she was the imperial teacher, outsiders did not dare to hurt her easily.
She also has an extremely powerful golden finger system Xiaoqi.
Despite being heavily protected, she was still afraid that her identity as a doll would be exposed, because she was afraid that she would become an alien again... an inhuman alien.
At this moment, deep in my heart, the thought of carefully hiding my identity to protect myself, which I was worried about becoming a monster or an alien in people's eyes because of my doll body, disappeared.
She wanted to protect him, even if she was alone.
This was the first time she felt like protecting someone.
It's not just for the mission, nor because she is a tyrant, but because she wants to do it!
Shen Tingyu's little hand tapped the button for using the Transformation Pill, and a faint but bright white light suddenly lit up on Snow Eagle's back.
She fell from mid-air, but Shen Tingyu was not worried about falling because she knew that the tyrant would definitely do the same as he had done countless times in the past.
Catch her safely and successfully, protect her!
Xin Hongying's pupils shrank, and he trotted towards her with his strong arms open.
Shen Tingyu fell into a soft embrace. Xin Hongying groaned, but caught her steadily.
She raised a smile and looked at him with eyes full of stars: "Your Majesty, I am back."
Xin Hongying could clearly hear the sound of her dead heart beating madly for her. She was the only one in her eyes, and her voice. It seemed as if her was the only one in her world.
His cold eyes looked at her slightly open lips, which were bright red, like a very delicious snow crystal cake.
The sexy Adam's apple rolled up and down, and a strange color flashed quickly in the eyes.
"Yes, fairy...it's great that you're back!"
You are the only one in the world who will not be afraid of me, will not abandon me, and will not betray me!
Darkening value: 99%…66%…20%
[Host, you are amazing. Wait... there is a surprise! ]
Xiao Qi's nervous and excited voice harassed her ears. After knowing that Xin Hongying's high-risk blackening value had dropped, Shen Tingyu's hanging heart finally fell to the ground.
So she reached out and turned off Xiao Qi's voice, concentrating on facing the current crisis, so she didn't hear the system's constant surprised voice.
[Task progress 0%…11%…22%…33%…]
[It's still rising by 44%...55%...66%! ]
[Host, our mission progress has miraculously reached the passing line. This is truly... not easy!]
[Xiao Qi can't hold the host back... Huh? Host, are you listening?]
Xin Hongying put her down gently, Shen Tingyu's little face was nervously protected in front of him, looking directly at the people surrounding her, timidly but bravely said.
"What do you want to do?"
