The comments said I was deeply affectionate, I just added points by using an alternate account.

Liu Feiyu shouted, "Second Brother! You're destroying yourself! Stop!"

"Self-destruction?" Liu Xiao turned his head to look at him, half of his face already shattered into purple light spots: "No, Fei Yu, this is called dedication."

"Although His divine image has dissipated, the power that flowed into my body remains."

He raised his hand, and the tips of his five fingers were transparent, revealing a purplish-black light flowing inside.

"I will burn myself to receive a strike from God."

Long Ao got up from the ground, blood still flowing from the wound on his left shoulder. He supported himself on his knee with his right hand, his voice hoarse.

"Is this guy out of his mind?"

Chen Guan stared at the rapidly crumbling cracks on Liu Xiao's body, repeating Baal's words in his mind: "He is indeed sick. He has completely lost the thoughts that belong to Liu Xiao and has become an Astaroth wearing Liu Xiao's skin."

This is the danger of demons, and this is why anyone found to have ties with demons becomes an enemy of humanity.

Even a person with relatively minor malicious intent can still cause incredibly terrifying damage.

Because His driving force is pleasure, He can do anything for pleasure.

An Changqing pointed his sword at Liu Xiao, his arm trembling, his body at its limit.

"I can hold them off, I'll move them."

"An Changqing, you can barely hold your sword anymore."

I said I could stop it.

Chen Guan glanced at him but didn't try to persuade him further.

This is the protagonist's insistence.

Liu Xiao's body had disintegrated into more than half of its original state, with everything below his legs turning into flowing purple light particles, and he was suspended in the air.

Liu Feiyu suddenly took a step forward.

Liu Chengjun grabbed his arm.

"What are you doing!"

"He's my second brother," Liu Feiyu said softly, "Let me give it a try."

"What's the point of testing him? He's risking his own life; getting close to him is just suicide!"

Liu Feiyu did not break free from Liu Chengjun's grasp, but she did not retreat either.

He looked up at the melting figure, and his lips moved.

"Second brother, do you remember how afraid you were of thunder when you were little?"

Liu Xiao paused for a moment.

"I found out you always hid in the closet whenever there was thunder, but I didn't tell anyone."

The diffusion rate of the purple light particles slowed down slightly.

"Shut up!" Liu Xiao's voice distorted, echoing, "The past means nothing to me!"

"You're trembling," Liu Feiyu said.

Liu Xiao's suspended body was indeed trembling, and the flowing light particles briefly became disordered in the area of ​​his remaining chest.

"I don't!"

His roar shattered the remaining glass shards around him, and a surge of purple light erupted as his entire body began to disintegrate at an accelerated rate.

"That's enough!"

He raised his only remaining right arm, and a fist-sized dark purple ball of light condensed in his palm, causing the space on the surface of the ball to distort and collapse.

"Go to hell, all of you."

The ball of light flew out of my hand.

At the same moment, Chen Guan released the scythe with his right hand, spread his five fingers, and the black mark in his palm burst out with intense light.

"Chen Guan!" An Changqing's voice came from behind.

He didn't turn around.

The moment the dark purple orb collided with the black light emanating from his palm, the air in the entire theater seemed to be sucked out.

The protagonist has his own awareness, and so does Chen Guan.

As the King of Endurance, he is the perfect person to defend against attacks.

At the center of the collision between the two forces, the air was torn into a vacuum, and the shockwave spread in all directions, lifting the remaining seats and wall fragments of the theater into the air.

Chen Guan's right hand was jolted backward by the shock, the black mark on his palm flickered, and the knuckles of his five fingers made a series of cracking sounds.

The purplish-black orb of light was not completely neutralized; the remaining energy grazed his shoulder and blasted a hole in the wall behind him.

During their brief encounter, Chen Guan successfully extracted Liu Xiao's emotions. It was thanks to Liu Feiyu's words that Liu Xiao experienced a great emotional fluctuation, allowing Chen Guan to take advantage of the situation.

Liu Xiao hovered in mid-air, his body disintegrating to his chest. A dark purple light emanated from his heart, flickering between the cracks in his shattered skin.

He looked down at his disappearing body, a sense of relief washing over him.

"I didn't kill you."

His voice was much softer, the distortion in the echo was fading, and he sounded more like a normal person.

Chen Guan looked up at him: "You're awake?"

"Sober? Probably."

Liu Xiao smiled, the skin at the corner of his mouth shattering into shimmering points of light.

Liu Xiao's gaze passed over the coffin and landed on Liu Feiyu in the distance. He paused for two seconds and then looked away.

"Actually, from the first time I came into contact with Astaroth, I knew this day would come."

Liu Feiyu's voice came from behind, hoarse and trembling: "Then why do you still choose this path?"

"Because I want to live."

Liu Xiao's answer was extremely simple.

"I want to live. I don't want to die at my older brother's hands, nor do I want to become a stumbling block in your eyes and those uncles' eyes."

Liu Xiao turned his head away, and only the outline of purple light particles remained on half of his face.

"But why did I gradually fall to this point?"

His left arm completely vanished, and particles of light scattered in the air.

"To the point that, in order to protect themselves, they killed everyone, even dragging the world down with them; to the point that they disregarded their own lives, willing to shed their last drop of blood for that demon god."

Liu Feiyu stood five steps away, her lips pressed tightly together.

Hearing his second brother's final confession, he felt quite uneasy.

"I remember now, I remember everything. It all started with my luck."

"From the moment I thought I was special, that I could conspire with the demon god and escape unscathed, I was destined for this end. From the first time I heard His voice, I was already influenced by His power and became a plaything in the demon god's hands."

Liu Xiao gave a bitter laugh and looked at Liu Feiyu: "I know that I am a dying man and I am not qualified to preach to you, but Feiyu, remember, do not believe in demons and gods. They are absolutely untrustworthy."

Although Liu Xiao was looking at Liu Feiyu when he said this, Chen Guan could sense that he was speaking to him.

He was reminding himself to be careful of Baal.

"Never forget your original intention, never forget why you embarked on a path you shouldn't have taken."

Liu Chengjun clenched his fists, looking at Liu Xiao in front of him, he couldn't help but feel a sense of shared sorrow.

"Second brother, I'm sorry about what happened before, even though it might sound hypocritical to say it like this."

Looking at Liu Xiao in front of him, Liu Chengjun knew that he was inextricably linked to Liu Xiao's current predicament.

He was not born cruel; he had also eagerly anticipated the birth of his younger brothers.

only……

There's no need for further discussion. If given the chance again, he would make the same choice. However, he, as the elder brother, truly owes Liu Xiao too much.

"No need to say anything, elder brother. I will not forgive you, but I also understand that you are the eldest son, a thorn in everyone's side. We are all the same. If I had been born a few years earlier, I might have been the second you."

Liu Xiao interrupted Liu Chengjun as his body disintegrated, leaving only his upper body, and his suspended height slowly decreased.
