Honkai Impact 3rd experience, starting with a thousand Herrschers

Cheng Xing looked at Lin Chaoyu, who had drawn his sword and then lowered his head without moving, and a hint of disappointment flashed in his eyes. Then he said, "What a pity."

Cheng Xing's original plan was to use words to drive this guy into a state of demonic possession, and then make him completely violent and injure people. At that time, the news would spread that the former eldest disciple of the Crimson Phoenix Immortal had actually gone into a state of demonic possession and was eventually killed on the spot.

I'm afraid the remaining disciples won't just wait quietly any longer; they'll have to do something about the damage to their reputation and standing.

Then gradually reveal some things that have happened over the years, some true and some false, and then lure a few guys into becoming demons. Then, wouldn't the story of immortals descending to earth to slay demons be born?

This gives the Crimson Iris Immortal a legitimate excuse to reappear in the world... Unfortunately, Fu Hua still softened her heart.

Just then, the sword in Lin Chaoyu's hand suddenly moved and rested on her shoulder. This woman, who looked to be over fifty years old with graying temples, was crying like a child.

“Master, although you killed my parents, it was because they were possessed by demons. You didn’t hold a grudge and raised me from childhood, providing me with food and shelter, and even teaching me martial arts… Even now, after I have committed such disloyal, unfilial, unkind, and unjust acts, you still think of forgiving me… Ha… But even so, I have no face to live on anymore.”

"I actually had evil thoughts just now, I actually wanted to harm you again! I, I, I'm unworthy of being a son!"

"Master, I'm sorry."

At this final moment, Lin Chaoyu quietly closed his eyes, then used the sword in his hand to slash his throat, simultaneously channeling the energy within his body to destroy his internal organs.

She committed suicide.

Fu Hua was lost in thought for a long time, as if she saw Lin Chaoyu's childhood appearance in her memory, as if she saw the girl taking care of her with a serious expression, as if she saw...

However, upon closer inspection, the image is incredibly blurry and indistinct.

Fu Hua stepped forward, took the sword from Lin Chaoyu's hand, and planted it aside. He then quietly picked up his former disciple and walked towards the mountaintop.

Cheng Xing didn't follow. He knew that at this moment, Fu Hua needed to think alone, to bury her former disciple, and perhaps also to bury a part of the past.

He also drew the sword to see what had happened.

Li Sushang looked at the two of them with a complicated expression, feeling a mix of emotions. She didn't know which one was the good guy and which one was the truly wicked one.

Everyone makes mistakes, and everyone seems to have their own reasons.

Otto noticed the little girl's confusion, but he didn't say anything. It was time for her to understand what kind of world she really was.

Chapter 129: The Wedding Night

Tonight is a special night. Every household has hung red cloth or red paper in front of their doors, and each household has an extra red lantern hanging on it.

Today is the wedding day of the two city lords of Tianhu City. The two women overcame numerous difficulties and worldly obstacles, finally triumphed over worldly opinions, received the blessings of their families, had a stable home, and walked into the hall of marriage.

Everyone in the city sincerely wished the two of them a happy marriage, after all, it was their existence that brought peace to everyone in this chaotic world.

Bronya was no longer wearing her conspicuous modern clothes, but a red dress that looked like a Lolita dress from the Western Regions. Beside her was a woman in a red dress with a charming smile on her face.

“Miss Bronya, you look absolutely stunning in this outfit. I wonder if I’ll have the honor of choosing another dress for you after we leave.”

Rita wore a gentle smile, looking like a charming and intelligent noblewoman. Her striking figure and captivating smile drew the attention of many men on the street.

"Perhaps there will be an opportunity, if Cheng Xing is willing."

Bronya was still floating on the ground, but because her wide skirt covered her lower body, people on the street did not notice that she was actually floating.

"I'm quite curious about that gentleman too. It seems he's had some affairs with some people at school. And as far as I know, he seems to have a lot of personal charm. Apparently, there are already three women who are very fond of him."

Rita maintained her elegant smile.

"He... is just a big idiot who often doesn't have a clear understanding of himself."

Bronya thought about some of the things the class monitor had talked to her before and felt that the guy must have had a girlfriend before, otherwise how could he be so familiar with her?

"Achoo!"

Cheng Xing couldn't help but sneeze, then looked thoughtfully at the cracked sword in his hand.

He had just obtained some memories of Dr. Mei from the core fragments. It seemed that Dr. Mei had collected all the fragments and made a thousand God Keys from those thousand core fragments. From the perspective of the fragments, he seemed to have gone through many complicated and tedious processes, which eventually turned into the sword in his hand.

Moreover, he also gained some tips on crafting Divine Keys, and it seemed like he had acquired even more useless knowledge.

"I wonder if I'll even need this memory in the future? They can't possibly give me a Herrscher core to try and create something like this..."

Cheng Xing suddenly stared at the cracked sword in his hand, then said thoughtfully, "That's right, using other Herrscher cores might cause them to shatter and be lost, but mine is already beyond repair. Even if it breaks, it will naturally regenerate inside my body... Isn't this the perfect experimental object?"

"It seems that even in the present civilization, I still can't escape the situation of experimenting on myself."

Cheng Xing had already started thinking about how and where to get enough Soul Steel and tools to craft a Divine Key by hand.

Fu Hua put the mud-covered shovel aside and looked at the small mound of earth. This was her final resting place, without a tombstone or any marker.

"...Goodbye, Asagi."

Fu Hua pondered for a long time in front of the small grave, but in the end, she could not reveal the complex emotions contained in her heart. She could only say goodbye, which was also a final farewell.

The four people came and went quickly, finishing their business in just half a day. When the unconscious people woke up, they had no idea what had happened. Later, when someone went to look for the sect leader, they discovered that the sect leader had already disappeared.

Only a pool of blood remained on the ground.

People searched the entire mountain but couldn't find any trace of the sect leader. The blood had only dripped onto the ground in a large puddle, but it didn't extend to any other places, and there were no other bloodstains anywhere else. Everyone was puzzled.

However, when people passed by the solitary grave on the mountaintop, everyone seemed to be subconsciously ignoring it, as if they had been given a suggestion.

This is a sign of respect that someone is showing to Fu Hua.

Fu Hua snapped out of her daze on her own. In the past few days, she kept thinking about those memories that she had forgotten for a long time, and about that guy who always seemed carefree but was absolutely reliable in crucial moments.

"You look like a young man, but you pretend to be a middle-aged man. You carry this medicine box around all day pretending to be a doctor, but you do things that take other people's lives... You are really a strange person."

Fu Hua seemed to be complaining, but she kept smiling.

"Squad leader! It's time to go!"

Hearing people calling his name from outside, Fu Hua quickly suppressed her smile, straightened her clothes, and walked out seriously.

Tonight is a battle, a battle in which the difference in strength between the enemy and ourselves is unknown.

According to the plan, everyone present will first have a preliminary exchange with the two castle lords, Yae Sakura and Kallen. Although we don't know how strong the two are, the Dreamscape is a beautiful dream created by Miss Yae Sakura herself, so the gap between the two sides is probably very large.

"If I were to burn my memories... never mind, it's not that bad yet."

At that time, two scenarios will emerge. The first is that although we cannot defeat them, we can still play a restraining role.

The second type is one that cannot be restrained even with all efforts, and cannot even be escaped.

At that time, Bronya said that the hidden backup plan would be activated to ensure that everyone got to a safe place before the final plan would be launched.

The Herrscher of Thunder and Fu Hua exchanged a glance and nodded subtly before leading everyone toward the castle tower.

Raiden Mei looked around at the brightly lit and bustling city, and suddenly felt that it was too cruel to destroy this beautiful world.

Kiana wore an unintentional silly smile, then placed her hands behind her back, one of which, hidden under her sleeve, was clutching the rusty cross pendant.

"With this, there's no need to make such extreme plans, right?"

Kiana thought to herself.

Himeko gazed at the tallest building in the city from afar. Everyone had been searching diligently for the past few days, but they had not seen the headmaster. In the end, they could only conclude that Theresa was probably inside the castle tower.

"Old friend, please don't let anything happen to you."

The person in the black robe, hidden in the shadows, quietly awaited the start of the plan.

"I never imagined that in my lifetime I would end up harming humanity alongside two other Herrschers... Even if it's just an illusion, it still gives me an absurd feeling."

The man gave a self-deprecating laugh.

Tonight, either the wedding banquet will be completed, or the city will fall and dreams will be shattered.

Chapter 130: Unexpected

Red is the main color tonight, a color that symbolizes joy and celebration in the East, naturally the color prepared for a grand wedding... It's a pity that the red color tonight doesn't seem to be just for celebrating the wedding banquet, after all, isn't human blood also red?

Standing in the banquet hall, a place not accessible to ordinary people, the seats were reserved for people of high standing in the city.

Meanwhile, the two main characters at the wedding banquet were already standing not far away. The white-haired figure was dressed in a white outfit that looked like a man's formal attire.

The figure with cherry blossom hair was wearing a cherry blossom-colored shrine maiden outfit. Although she looked rather frail, the sword at her waist made it impossible to ignore her fighting prowess.

"I am so glad that everyone could attend our wedding today. Although we are both women, love can transcend gender! We have gone through many hardships, but we have successfully made it to today and achieved a perfect result."

Kallen, holding Yae Sakura's hand with a happy smile on her face, then said to everyone, "Well then, according to my tradition, there will be a master of ceremonies to conduct a solemn oath."

At this moment, a man dressed in a priest's robe silently walked out from the corner. He had long gray hair, but his eyes were covered with a cloth. He seemed to be a blind priest.

"Who is he?"

When Bronya saw that figure, she frowned for some reason. For some reason, the priest seemed to give her a strange sense of familiarity, but no matter how hard she searched her memory, she could not find this gray-haired figure in priest's robes.

"According to the dream world, the master of ceremonies at such a wedding ceremony should be someone who left a deep impression on the dream world's owner. The characters in a dream must have a real-world counterpart, so where did Miss Yae Sakura meet this gray-haired priest?"

Rita was a little curious. Logically speaking, shouldn't the master of ceremonies in this situation be her own bishop? After all, in Yae Sakura's understanding, the only person who could serve as the master of ceremonies and was closest to Kallen seemed to be him, right?

So who is this guy?

"Miss Yae Sakura, are you willing to enter into a marriage contract with Miss Kallen, to hold her hand tightly and never leave her, whether in poverty or hardship, in sickness or in old age, no matter what difficulties we encounter?"

At this moment, the priest standing in front began reciting the oath.

"Wait...that voice is!"

Bronya's eyes widened; she recognized the voice.

"I am willing."

Yae Sakura smiled and spoke to Kallen.

"So, Miss Karen, are you willing to enter into a marriage contract with Miss Yaeichi, regardless of poverty or hardship, life or death, illusion or reality, disregarding worldly constraints? Are you willing to overcome all obstacles and embrace the lover before you?"

"I…………"

Kallen looked at Yae Sakura and for some reason seemed lost in thought. The "yes" that was about to come out of her mouth just wouldn't come out. Just as the atmosphere was getting tense, someone suddenly stood up.

You can't agree to that!

An uproar immediately erupted, and all eyes turned to the white-haired figure who stepped forward—it was Kiana.

She clutched the rusty cross tightly in her hand, then raised it high, finally shouting, "Kalen Kaslana! Ancestor! You are long dead!"

After seeing the rusty cross pendant and hearing the girl's conclusion, Karen suddenly recalled the true history in her mind.

"No! No! You can't!"

A fear unlike any other welled up inside Yae Sakura, like a child who had secretly used money without their parents' knowledge and was discovered, feeling an unprecedented sense of guilt and dread.
