Yes, I did all of this!

At its rapid speed, it has become a powerful warhead, breaking through anything that dares to stand in its way.

"Ow—"

A piercing roar came, and both of them saw the figure in front of them—a bizarre shape, an appearance that would evoke fear in anyone, a distorted form that was hard to imagine as a being born in this world.

"Breath, consume..."

Sensing the magical girl's aura, the monsters became excited and were about to utter greedy words when, in the next instant, they were struck by the high-speed sphere.

The swarming monsters were instantly blasted apart by the dark golden light, then slowly regrouped. By then, the sphere had already flown far away.

"So these are the remnants of those strange souls... They've definitely weakened considerably. I hope my sister and senior can handle them."

Looking at the two magical girls again, the number of monsters was indeed large. The dark gold protective shield bombarded them like cannonballs. Some unfortunate monsters lost their lives as a result, but most were only injured.

Fengling tilted her head slightly, looking at the injured monsters. Although she wanted to kill them here, she knew it wasn't her mission, so she continued to accelerate, flying towards the depths of the sea with Huangyi.

Chapter 345: Breaking through the seal

—On the other side, in the world outside the seal, Yuhi and Rin stood on a high-rise building, looking at the deep vortex in the sky, the atmosphere extremely solemn.

After a short while, Lingyin lowered her head and looked around at the city: "Senior."

"What's wrong?" Xi Ri turned her head and glanced at her.

"To be honest, I thought you would choose to go in with Huangyi and the others."

Seemingly to ease the tension, Lingyin smiled and said, "After all, in my heart you've always had this kind of impulsive personality."

"Is that so?" Yuhi thought for a moment, then shrugged helplessly. "I just want to follow my heart. Whether it's as a magical girl or choosing to stay here, you should have heard Yuzhi or Duanmu Mo talk about the opportunity that gave me power."

"...Yes, but in the end, you still chose to protect everyone."

"more or less."

Xi Ri took out her phone and waved it at her: "However, I don't want to protect people who are unrelated to me. I just wanted to change my mindset at first."

"Yeah......"

"At first, I used this power cautiously, just to survive. Then, I used it to do the work of a magical girl, just to give myself a sense of ritual in this new life."

Opening her phone, Xi Ri recalled the past, her eyes becoming somewhat solemn: "After that, I used this power to begin my revenge, vowing to kill my former friends even at the cost of my life."

Opening the communication, Yuhi took a deep breath and said, "In the end, even when I no longer need to use this power, the only reason I will still become a magical girl is because this power allows me to better protect the people I care about."

"...So, I guess I can be considered an outlier, but you guys just happened to pull me onto this right path—and even now, I'm only staying for one person."

After she finished speaking, she dialed Duanmu Mo's number, and his voice finally rang out: "Hello?"

"Duanmu Mo, have you seen what's happening outside?" Xi Ri asked, holding her phone and speaking on speakerphone.

"...I see it, what is that?"

"Simply put, an accident occurred within the seal, and a powerful monster interfered, giving the souls within the seal a chance to escape," Yuhi said calmly.

"So, Cangyuan is still safe for the time being?"

"You could say that."

Xi Ri nodded and said, "So far, I've only heard that some strange person has interfered. That sea monster won't be able to enter Cang Yuan's dream for the time being."

"I see..."

"..."

A silence fell between the two. Xi Ri turned to look at Ling Yin, who nodded and said, "Mr. Duanmu."

"Ah, Yin, you're here too."

"Ah."

Lingyin turned to look in the direction of Duanmu Mo, but her view was blocked by tall buildings.

“Mr. Duanmu, the strange people will come out of the passage, and we will stay here to guard them... But to be honest, we don’t know how long we can hold out, and there’s a chance that some will slip through our net.”

"..."

"So I hope you can leave here as soon as possible, go as far away as you can. Ling has also modified your car, so when it's running at full speed, it won't be slower than your motorcycle, and it'll be fast enough for you to get to a safe place."

"—What are you trying to do by saying that?" Duanmu Mo's voice was somewhat low upon hearing this.

"No matter what happens to us, don't come back. It's that simple."

"Do you think something bad will happen to you?"

"I just want to protect more people; that's my request, my plea."

"......I see."

Lingyin smiled and nodded, then looked up at the sky, her expression turning serious: "That's all then, Mr. Duanmu, goodbye."

—Xi Ri hung up the phone and put it away, looking around: "Although they're confused, they're pretty fast at escaping."

"...But whether we can outrun those weirdos is still unknown—they're coming."

The two looked at the vortex at the same time, where black mist surged, like a water-filled balloon struggling to break free.

boom!

The next moment, the balloon burst, and the twisted, monstrous remnants of souls burst forth from the seal, emitting piercing screams:

"Reality! Reality!"

"Humans...eat!"

"Kill! Kill! Kill!"

"..."

Countless voices rushed in, but the next moment, the blazing flames engulfed them.

call--

As the sun rose, a raging fire erupted from his hand, instantly spreading and engulfing the entire vortex.

Even so, they could still sense the presence of the flames; those strange people couldn't possibly have died so easily.

If they can't be killed immediately, they will just keep surging.

But soon, a gust of green wind blew, intensifying the flames and disintegrating the monster's soul with its power.

At the same time, Yuhi and Rin rushed forward, plunging straight into the tide of the monster's remnant souls.

Flames spewed from behind the setting sun as it swung its fists and feet among the freaks.

With each swing, a fiery blade would extend from the fist and leg, slashing even more fiercely at the enemy.

"This road is blocked! You all go back!"

Lingyin also opened her arms, and the surrounding green wind surged, turning into wind blades that slashed and killed the enemy.

Even so, there are still far too many enemies. As a soul entity, it will continue to regenerate unless it is completely burned or blown away.

Torn souls will reassemble themselves, regardless of whether the reassembled part is their own or not. The consciousness within their souls tells them that there are only two things they must pursue on this journey: freedom and people's fear.

"—No, you can't go back! Just die here!"

Xi Ri showed no mercy, his power spreading outwards and incinerating all the surrounding enemies.

Lost in the midst of these strange characters, all I knew was to fight like a madman.

Taking advantage of this opportunity, Lingyin distanced herself from Xiri and flew away from the group of monsters. Seeing Xiri faintly visible among the remnants of souls, she activated her power, and a tornado rose from it, enveloping Xiri and the monsters.

The wind fanned the flames, causing the power of the setting sun to surge once more. One by one, the remnants of the monsters were burned to ashes. Some of them went mad and wanted to fight the magical girl as soon as they saw her, while others wanted to leave temporarily and feel the freedom of being away from the seal. However, the tornado of the Listening Sound held them back and forced them to fight in the eye of the storm.

After the power of the setting sun erupted, the flames around her dimmed slightly. She let out a long breath, and Lingyin immediately returned to her side, looking at the strange people.

The number of monster remnants seems to have decreased, but enemies are still pouring out of the vortex, as if the battle will never end.

Chapter 346: Black Flame Sunset

Di-

Vehicles were congested on the road, honking their horns shrilly, and some people even abandoned their cars and fled, trying to get away from the dark sky in the distance.

In that sky, only crimson flames and emerald winds emitted a faint glow.

On the streets, people ran forward frantically, their faces filled with unease and fear. Screams, cries, and prayers filled the air. Their figures appeared exceptionally small against the backdrop of the swirling sky behind them.

With forces far beyond human control, panic gripped everyone's heart like an invisible hand, and despair spread through the crowd, consuming everyone's reason.

—But amidst the panicked flight of the crowd, a single footstep slowly moved in the opposite direction, like a solid rock standing upright in a rushing river, separating the fleeing tide.

Duanmu Mo, with his hands in the pockets of his trench coat, looked up at the distant sky, his gaze calm and thoughtful.

"Hmm... Even if the two of them are together, they'll be hard to deal with."

Under Duanmu Mo's gaze, Xi Ri and Ling Yin's movements slowed down, far less explosive than before.

More importantly, the monsters' power is also slowly increasing. At first, they were just some road-paving minions, but later they became more and more troublesome. In the end, some of the monster remnants began to break free of control and tried to pounce on the humans on the ground.

"Stay here!"

Lingyin suddenly turned around, and the hurricane wrapped around the strange man, pulling him back sharply.

However, this also exposed her back to the enemy, and one of the strange remnants of a soul swung its tail, while its soul body struck her with a whooshing sound.

Snapped!

The sound rang out, but the expected pain did not come. Lingyin turned her head and was shocked to find Xi Ri blocking her way, holding her tail with both hands.

"senior!"

"Leave them to me, you go and keep the weirdo in check!"

As the sun set, flames erupted from its arms and spread along its tail, setting its body ablaze.

"...Okay, thank you."

Looking at Xi Ri's panting shoulders, Ling Yin pursed her lips, nodded, and immediately flew away from the place.

Having distanced herself from the vortex, Lingyin spread her arms, unleashing a barrage of wind blades that slashed at the monsters, cutting them open and slowing their movements.

Some wind blades also slashed towards Xi Ri's body, but before they could injure her, they were neutralized by the wind shield on Xi Ri's body, which instead strengthened it.

In this way, it was ensured that the remnant souls of the monsters would have difficulty escaping, and Lingyin was able to unleash her full power to attack those monsters.

The somewhat chaotic battle situation gradually stabilized.
