The world doesn't need succubi to save it.

"Let's go. I'm aware of what happened this time. Let's not let it happen again."

With a furrowed brow, Augustus raised his head, ready to retort.

"but……"

Before he could utter a word, he saw a blinding crimson drip from the stargazer's hood and onto his robes.

His pale, deep gaze remained unchanged as the stargazer slowly repeated:

"Let's go."

suck!

Taking a deep breath, Augustus's expression returned to normal. He straightened up, ignoring the blood at the corner of her mouth, and immediately turned and left without the slightest hesitation.

bang.

After stepping out of the gate, Augustus paused for a moment, bowed slightly to the gate, and then turned and left.

As he walked slowly, without the stargazers watching, Augustus's composure quickly returned to normal.

As a legend who has been famous for over a century, he naturally possesses the corresponding composure and would not lose his composure due to such embarrassment and confusion.

So what is this? A warning, or a reprimand?

"Hope? Are we to place our hopes on some vague and unfounded prophecy?"

absurd.

Returning to the stairs, Augustus paused briefly before slowly descending.

"Loyal to humanity, loyal to the world, loyal to oneself..."

He muttered to himself, then turned to look at the portraits of the first few leaders that were hanging on the wall of the hall.

Looking up at the masked figure, Augustus murmured to himself:

"But why? They never said they would pledge allegiance to the Watchers..."

As he spoke, he disappeared into the corridor.

Disappear.

……

bang.

"Ugh……"

Shaking his head at the closed door, the stargazer slowly wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth and chuckled softly:

"A vague and ethereal prophecy?"

"You'll laugh when you hear that, after all... that's what you most want to hear."

The stargazer closed his eyes, recalling the scene he had just witnessed: the intertwined figures of angels and demons.

Could it be you?

"[The Prophet]..."

Chapter 84 Heartache

"Are you feeling sad now?"

Holding the aged head in his hands, Ning Feng stared at the last remaining expression on it, without answering.

After a long while, he slowly spoke:

“I’m not sad. I just suddenly remembered something and figured out why he set up the altar here.”

Just as Ning Feng said during his battle with Li Tiandu, this is not a suitable location.

For Li Tiandu, who had been planning for so long, this was a mistake he shouldn't have made.

He couldn't have been unaware of this, but in the end he still chose this place.

If it's not due to madness leading to arrogance, then there must be a reason behind it.

“A long time ago, he casually told me and Jiang Wan that he first met his late wife in a church by the sea.”

So this is where their story begins, and he wants to meet her and the children here again...

Is it true that even the most hateful person has a pitiable side?

call!

Ning Feng let out a long sigh of relief, releasing all the frustration in his heart.

Then, he poured the little light power he had into Li Tiandu's head.

With the power of the Judge, the fallen angel's head began to slowly melt away, eventually turning into ashes and being blown away by the sea breeze.

Dust to dust, dust to dust.

Having witnessed the entire process, Ariana hadn't stopped Ning Feng's actions until now, when she curiously asked:

"Why not take it back? It might not sound nice, but it's your spoils of war."

The head of a fourth-order traitor is undoubtedly the best proof of Ning Feng's achievements.

Although this person's identity is somewhat special, Ariana does not believe that Ning Feng would adhere to the principle of "respect for the dead."

joke.

Does he seem like the kind of person who is both kind and hypocritical?

In this incident, Ning Feng demonstrated an astonishing talent for manipulating emotions and bewitching people.

To be honest, even Ariana was a little surprised.

He was born evil.

Moreover, she also had some understanding of Ning Feng's personality.

Once he has made up his mind about something, he is very difficult to be influenced by others.

Just like how Li Tiandu would still die from exhaustion of his life force even when there was no need to continue.

However, in order to break free from the invisible shackles in his heart, Ning Feng still chose to take action himself.

Ariana doesn't think someone who makes this choice would be the type to regret it later.

As for the crime of "insulting a corpse," how could an evil cat possibly understand it?

Still angry?

The kind of person who would rather grind the bones to ashes and destroy all evidence?

No way?

Fortunately, she wasn't disappointed. Ning Feng, having regained his composure, shook his head upon hearing this:

No, that's not the reason.

"He's dead, and I've vented my anger."

This is the end of it all; all hatred comes to a close here.

"I can accept this reality, but Jiang Wan can't; she's too sentimental."

Even if you know in your heart that it's not your fault, you still wonder if it's all because of her.

Therefore, she cannot know the truth.

Turning his head slightly, Ning Feng looked at Ariana and said softly:

There is a big difference between being bewitched by an evil god and betraying him, and voluntarily throwing yourself into the arms of an evil god.

With a smile, the black cat lay down and tapped Ning Feng's chest with its tail, as if it were gently touching him with its fingertips.

"Isn't that deception?"

Shrugging, Ning Feng did not refute, but admitted:

"It was deception, no doubt, and a rather clumsy lie at that."

Jiang Wan is not a child and will not easily believe such well-intentioned lies from adults.

"But even if she guessed the truth, as long as she didn't see the evidence with her own eyes, there would still be a thought in her mind."

Perhaps he is innocent, and none of this is our fault.

"What I want is for her to subconsciously think of this possibility."

As for the remaining sadness, let time heal it.

"How gentle she is~"

Ning Feng slowly shook his head, watching the creature that had been blown away fly back.

“It’s cruel. She has the right to know the truth, but I deceived her for my own selfish desires.”

“I know it’s selfish, but I just don’t want to see her cry anymore.”

I am really afraid of women's tears.

hum.

He didn't hear any sound, but Ning Feng sensed the changes happening around him through his spiritual energy that was emanating from the surroundings.

!

Forcing himself to stay awake, he looked behind him. The judge's strength was completely exhausted, not a drop left.

To be honest, Ning Feng's current condition is not much better than that of an ordinary person.

Upon seeing who it was, Ning Feng's guarded expression suddenly changed, showing both relaxation and exhaustion...

There was also a hint of awkwardness.

Xilin emerged from the spatial rift, her somewhat gloomy expression softening slightly upon seeing Ning Feng, and she breathed a sigh of relief.

Ning Feng felt somewhat awkward when he saw Xilin again, after all, he had deliberately forced her to make a choice not long ago.

"Ahem... Um, how are you?"
