Clang—!
Clang—!
Clang—!
Countless blades flashed as Han Xiaoxiao roared in anger, striking the towering tree in front of her and leaving cuts upon it.
Next to Han Xiaoxiao was a notice that was crumpled up, creased, and somewhat torn.
The notice clearly stated, "Ye Yiqing and Ye Ciqing are traitors to the Light God Society, and Hera is a [HeLa Cell]."
"Why, why! Why do they all lie to me!"
Han Xiaoxiao kept swinging the blade, venting her pent-up anger.
"Why should I teach you swordsmanship? Hmm... because I was moved by your will."
"No one can predict the future. What if you have a family someday?"
During the training camp, the image of Ye Yiqing gently teaching her swordsmanship kept playing in Han Xiaoxiao's mind, followed by Hera's harmless face flashing in her mind as well.
"They're all...liars!"
Han Xiaoxiao gripped the straight knife tightly with her left hand, and a drop of blood dripped down the hilt.
Overwhelming anger and sorrow swirled within her, and then, with a snap, it felt as if something inside Han Xiaoxiao's body had broken.
At that moment, Han Xiaoxiao also swung the knife in her hand.
A massive blade of light flashed, and a towering tree with a radius of two meters was severed in two by Han Xiaoxiao's single strike.
She collapsed onto the mud, exhausted, her eyes staring blankly at the dark night sky.
Raindrops fell slowly, hitting her face and sliding down his face, which should have been quite lovely.
"They're all... liars..."
Han Xiaoxiao lay there quietly, letting the rain soak her to the bone, without any intention of getting up.
After an unknown amount of time, a series of slightly heavy footsteps slowly approached.
Then a black umbrella was extended to shield Han Xiaoxiao from the rain.
Coco stared in surprise at the felled tree, but her eyes darkened again when she saw Han Xiaoxiao lying on the ground, looking as if her soul had been taken away.
"Well, the higher-ups told me to come with you. Your captain said you came to the back mountain alone, so I came to find you."
Seeing that Han Xiaoxiao was still lying on the ground without responding, Coco pondered for a moment and then spoke softly again.
“I know this has been a big blow to you. If you don’t want to go, I can talk to the higher-ups and you won’t have to go.”
Coco placed the umbrella next to Han Xiaoxiao to shield her from the rain, and then slowly walked away with a cube-shaped object covering her head.
I had only taken a few steps when I heard a noise behind me.
Raindrops pounded against the metal cube overhead, and Coco quickly turned to look at Han Xiaoxiao.
Han Xiaoxiao, covered in mud, used her left hand to prop herself up, her expressionless face slowly opening her mouth.
"I'll go with you..."
…………
Japan, Shimizu Prefecture.
Thump! Thump!
A huge tumor throbbed violently in the dimly lit room like a heart.
As the pulsation frequency decreased, the tumor began to wriggle, as if something was about to burst out.
Pfft!
The next moment, a hand covered in mucus burst out of the tumor, and then the whole person crawled out of the tumor.
"Ptooey! Disgusting!"
Ye Ciqing, with his bare buttocks exposed, spat out all the disgusting saliva in his mouth. He then nervously touched his neck and, seeing that there were no wounds, breathed a sigh of relief.
"Thank goodness, I thought I would only have one head left after splitting apart."
Ye Ciqing stood up slowly, panting heavily, and stretched languidly. "Ah, after being undercover for so long, I can finally relax."
"Yes, it's finally over. It's just a pity we couldn't bring [Life] back."
Ye Yiqing, who had just emerged from the tumor, walked over naked, wiping the sticky substance off his body.
He casually took the towel handed to him by the maid and started wiping himself, while the maid in the kimono kept her head down the whole time, not daring to look at the two of them, and her face was slightly red.
The sound of a paper door sliding came from inside, and a young girl dressed in a kimono, who looked to be about the same age as Ye Ciqing, excitedly ran over when she saw him.
As he ran, he spread his arms wide and shouted happily to Ye Ciqing in Japanese:
"Tsukiyo-kun, I miss you so much!"
"Ichika, I miss you too!"
Ye Ciqing was about to open his arms to welcome him, but remembering the sticky substance all over his body, he waved his hand to stop him.
"Hey, wait a minute, this is on my body..."
Before she could finish speaking, Yihua suddenly threw herself into his arms.
"...I'm so dirty."
But Yihua didn't look down on him at all. Instead, she looked up at Ye Ciqing with a bright smile.
"It's okay, I don't mind."
Ye Ciqing smiled helplessly, touched Yihua's head, and then scratched his face somewhat awkwardly.
"Hey, why don't you ask someone to bring us some clothes? It's not good to be naked all the time."
Ichika realized what was happening, her face immediately turning bright red, and she released Ye Ciqing.
"Okay, okay, I'll go right away!"
After saying that, he ran off in a flash. Then two maids, who were also blushing, came in, put the two men's clothes at the door, and hurriedly closed the door and left.
"Oh, my irresistible charm!"
Ye Ciqing smoothed his hair in a flirtatious manner, and together with Ye Yiqing, they dried off the sticky substance on their bodies and put on their clothes.
After they both put on their clothes, Ye Yiqing keenly noticed that the surrounding space was distorting.
Lin Wushuang appeared before the two of them.
"How did the Lord arrange it?" Ye Yiqing asked Lin Wushuang without wasting any words.
