Desperate people, accept the seed of my soul!

Zhong Heng did not respond.

Although he didn't know what Han Xiao was doing, the most primal warning signs were screaming wildly in his heart when a creature faced an incomprehensible anomaly that clearly pointed to destruction.

That was by no means a simple "death struggle".

Zhong Heng panicked; he wanted to leave this place and get as far away as possible.

This thought overwhelmed everything.

He didn't even bother to straighten his suit stained with red wine. All his composure and calculation vanished. He turned around abruptly and crawled towards the command room door in an ugly manner.

However, it was too late.

Everything is too late.

3:25:21

Energy has accumulated to a critical point.

Han Xiao looked at everything floating in front of him, his eyes beginning to lose their sparkle, but his sense of relief grew stronger.

His body, the vessel that had been infused with terrifying kinetic energy, finally reached its limit at this moment, transforming into a blazing sun radiating dazzling white light.

With the last ounce of strength in his body, Han Xiao unleashed a soul-shaking roar towards the corridor, towards the building, and towards the culprit hiding behind the scenes:

"Wei Donghai—!!"

"Get out here and face your death—!!!"

The words had barely left his mouth—

The sun blazed brightly.

There was no deafening explosion; at first, there was only a pure, pristine white light.

That is a silent realm where the energy density is so high that even sound cannot travel.

In this white light, Han Xiao's figure began to disintegrate inch by inch.

His flesh, bones, and even his soul transformed into countless shimmering particles of light in that instant, merging into the destructive torrent.

In the last instant before his consciousness completely dissipated, he seemed to see the light break through the roof and pierce the sky.

It's so bright...

Just like the windmill that Xiaoyu was spinning that day...

Bye now……

This shitty world.

A white light swept out silently.

The terrified "Black Stone" team members, the sturdy concrete walls, the sophisticated firearms... were like a sandcastle encountering the rising tide the moment they came into contact with that white light.

There was no burning, no explosion, only the annihilation of the purest matter.

The shockwave spread wildly in a perfect sphere in all directions, completely obliterating the structure of the entire building in that instant.

3:25:23.

The destructive radiance engulfed the command center with unstoppable force.

Zhong Heng's fingers were less than a centimeter away from the doorknob.

He turned around, his eyes reflecting the overwhelming white light, his face frozen in extreme horror and resentment.

"No... how could this be... I haven't..."

Before he could even utter a sound, his entire body melted away in the white light, leaving not a trace of ash behind.

Wei Donghai, who stubbornly stayed in place, didn't even have time to sneer at Zhong Heng's pathetic escape.

The instant the destructive white light touched his body, an unimaginable pain descended upon him first—

That was the excruciating pain caused by the violent energy forcibly tearing apart the microscopic structures that make up his flesh, bones, and even every cell.

It felt as if millions of needles were piercing every inch of his body from the inside out.

In this indescribable agony, a sense of regret filled his fading consciousness.

He regretted it, he really regretted it—

I regret standing under a crumbling wall...

I regret not having nipped the problem in the bud sooner and more thoroughly...

If, if I could do it all over again...

However, no if.

He felt his vision being completely swallowed by an irresistible whiteness, followed by a sense of nothingness as if even existence itself had been stripped away, which overwhelmed all his consciousness.

This arrogant and domineering tycoon who held sway over Dawn City, this cunning and calculating man who believed he could settle everything with money and power.

Ultimately, in the heart of the trap he himself had set, in the fortress he thought was foolproof, the avenger, whom he regarded as an ant, was dragged into the abyss of hell.

No remains were found.

Hunter and prey, faced with this equal destruction, met an indistinguishable end.

……

Let's turn back time a little bit.

3:25:22.

At the epicenter of the explosion, behind Han Xiao.

Xu Suyuan collapsed to the ground, her left arm numb with excruciating pain, and the dizziness from blood loss made her feel like the whole world was spinning.

But Han Xiao's last words were still clear in her mind.

"Catch your chance...use your last bit of power...and become intangible..."

"Live on."

The instinct for survival and the final promise to Han Xiao overcame the physical limits that brought her to the brink of collapse.

With trembling hands, she stretched out her blood-stained right hand and slashed it sharply at the empty space in front of her.

【Void Returns to the Treasury】.

The air was torn apart as if by fabric, and a hazy spatial rift appeared out of thin air in front of her.

It was an absolute void, a refuge from which even light could not penetrate.

In that instant before the white light filled the field of vision and was about to engulf everything.

Xu Suyuan used all her strength to turn around.

This was the last time she saw this guardian.

She saw it.

In the place where the light was brightest, the man's silhouette was dissipating into particles of light.

He didn't turn around, but his straight spine was like an unyielding monument.

Hot tears mingled with blood and rolled down his cheeks.

"Uncle Han..."

Xu Suyuan's lips moved, and she silently uttered two words.

The next instant, a destructive white light engulfed the spot where she had just been.

A millisecond before that, the slender figure had already struggled to roll into the gray crevice.

The crack closed instantly.

On the original wall, only half a blurry bloody palm print remained, which was then completely vaporized by the white light.

……

In another dimension.

There is no gravity, no light, and no sound.

This place is an absolutely desolate, gray, and empty void.

Xu Suyuan felt like a feather, floating in the boundless void.

The intense physical pain was rapidly receding, replaced by a deep-seated fatigue and coldness.

My consciousness began to blur, as if I were sinking into the deep sea.

"Uncle Han..."

"grandmother……"

"I will Survive……"

"Then……"

"revenge……"

In this dimension devoid of time, the girl's body was curled up like a baby in the womb.

A dark silver glow slowly circulated across her body, forming a protective cocoon that isolated her from the void.

Her breathing became barely perceptible, and her heartbeat slowed to an extreme.

She fell into a long, unending sleep.

While asleep, the slivers of spiritual energy that had been completely depleted began to slowly regroup and grow again in this void.

……

The real world.

3:26.

The main building of Nanshan Ci'an Nursing Home has completely disappeared.

Instead, there is a huge hemispherical crater with a diameter of over 100 meters.

The surface of the pit is as smooth as a mirror, which is the trace of the soil and rock being vitrified under instantaneous high temperature and pressure.

Smoke and dust slowly drifted down, covering the remaining ruins around them, like a gray shroud draped over this tragic revenge.

everything is over.

The once invincible leader of the Wei Empire, the avenger with bizarre abilities, have all vanished into nothingness in these silent ruins.

The first rays of dawn appeared on the distant horizon.

The tranquility of the early morning was broken by the chirping of several unidentified birds.

The sun rose as usual.

Some have passed away forever, while others have sunk into the abyss, waiting to awaken.

But that long, dark night has finally passed.
