Although she had accepted her fate of leaving this world alone, she was extremely sad, but she had no choice. She didn't want anyone else to be hurt by her father's plan. However, there was a boy who tried to stop her and save her until the end.
But just now, Xia Yin, who transformed into Ixa (Warrior), killed him with his own hands. Although it was Ixa's (Warrior) combat AI who actually did it, it was because Xia Yin asked him for help the night before that he came to save Xia Yin; and it was Xia Yin who transformed into Ixa (Warrior).
When Xia Yin killed him personally, he lost everything.
"I'm sorry, I'm sorry, brother..." Xia Yin said in despair.
Outside, Ixa (Warrior) opened his hands, and his spirit gushed out from his body like a fountain, turning into a beam of light that continued to rise, as if it was about to pierce the sky. Ixa (Warrior)'s spirit had reached its peak, and it was about to take Xia Yin away from this world and go to the side of the higher-dimensional gods.
"Unbelievable, is this also the power of the Fourth True Ancestor?"
La Freya looked around curiously. There was endless wilderness and a dark night sky above her head. There were no stars, only a blood-red full moon hanging high in the sky.
According to Setsuna's explanation, this is inside the ancient city's "territory". Before the Broken Fang was about to erupt, the ancient city captured them with the power of the Demon King and brought them into the territory to avoid the attack.
After confirming the situation, the two women tied up the unconscious Beatrice and Kirishima and rushed to check on the situation in the ancient city.
Gu Cheng's situation at this time can be described as tragic. He had previously used his body to resist Broken Fang to buy time. This resulted in his chest, hands, and half of his face being injured by the divine energy. What was even more terrifying was that the red divine energy was like a strong acid, constantly corroding Gu Cheng's body made of "negative vitality", causing it to slowly disappear.
"…What should I do to save senior?" Setsuna asked La Freya. Kensuke Yezawa was once a magic technician of Arcadikia. Perhaps as a princess, La Freya would know how to heal the damage caused by the divine energy.
"...We can't heal the ancient city's injuries." La Freya shook her head.
"...How could it be..." The color suddenly drained from Xuecai's face.
"Spiritual energy is the energy driven by higher-dimensional gods and angels. It is naturally very strong against demons. Gu Cheng used his body to take on Broken Fang, causing a large amount of spiritual energy to invade his body, causing his body, which should be immortal, to slowly disappear. If this continues, he will most likely disappear completely soon."
If Kojou hadn't saved them, he wouldn't have used his body to resist Broken Fang, and he wouldn't be in such a dying state now. Logically speaking, in such a critical moment, normal people would prioritize self-protection. La Freya has seen too many people abandon their companions when facing danger. But Akatsuki Kojou chose to sacrifice himself to protect them without hesitation, which made La Freya's heart surge.
"Heh - you're such a fool for taking Broken Fang for us. But I don't hate you for being like this." La Freya hugged Gu Cheng's body gently and said to him.
Setsuna wanted to say something, but she knew that now was not the time to be jealous.
"We have no way to save the ancient city, but that doesn't mean the ancient city can't save itself." Lavlia suddenly said.
"Let the senior save himself?"
"That's right. Logically speaking, facing such a powerful divine attack, Gu Cheng should have been completely destroyed the moment he was hit. However, although he was seriously injured, he survived."
"I speculate that there must be some kind of power in the ancient city that offsets the divine energy. We just need to awaken that power."
"...If there is any power in senior's body that can counteract the divine energy, it should be the Demon King's power." Setsuna guessed.
"Demon King Power? What is that?"
"Senior, there is a high-level energy in your body that is similar to divine energy. It is called Demon King Power. I think this is what you are talking about."
"...The power of the Demon King! I didn't expect the Fourth True Ancestor possessed such power." La Freya said with emotion.
"No! It is said that the Demon King Power is the power that the senior possesses himself."
La Freya was surprised when she heard Setsuna's explanation. She took a deep look at the boy in her arms. It seemed that the boy in front of her had hidden many secrets.
"Can you tell me everything about the Demon King's power in Kojou? If so, maybe we can find a way to save him." La Freya looked at Setsuna and said.
Xue Cai nodded. As the princess of Arcadikia, La Freya's knowledge was even greater than hers. Maybe she could really find a way to use the power of the Demon Emperor to save the ancient city.
So, Setsuna told La Freya everything that had happened before.
"After sucking the blood of the mysterious woman Queen, Gu Cheng awakened the power of the Demon King..." La Freya muttered to herself.
"If that's the case, let's give it a try." She said with determination. Then she began to take off Gu Cheng's shirt, revealing his muscular upper body.
"This is a man's body." The princess ran her fingers over Gu Cheng's flank with great interest, as if to confirm the elasticity of his abdominal muscles.
"What are you doing?..." Xuecai blushed and waved her hand to stop La Freya.
"What? Of course I'm saving the ancient city!" La Freya said innocently. She tried to take off her shirt while speaking.
"Didn't you say it before? After Gu Cheng sucked the Queen's blood, he awakened the power of the Demon King. So if he sucks my blood, it might have the same effect." La Freya explained.
"...No, although I don't want to admit it, but so far, senior's Demon King power will only awaken when he sucks Queen's blood..." Yukina said unwillingly.
"Xue Cai!" La Freya interrupted Xue Cai, she looked directly into her eyes and asked: "Do you like Akatsuki Kojou?"
"What!" Xuecai's face was flushed.
"Do you like Akatsuki Kojou, who saved you from the fate of being a 'weapon' and acknowledged you as a 'human'?" La Freya continued to stare into Setsuna's eyes and asked seriously.
"I... Of course I like, I like you, senior!" Realizing that she couldn't escape, Setsuna shouted desperately.
"Very good." La Freya showed a cunning smile and continued to induce: "Then, are you willing to lose to Queen? Only Queen can really help Gucheng, and you can only watch from the sidelines and can't do anything. Are you willing to do this!?"
"I... Of course I am unwilling to do this, but, but only by sucking the Queen's blood can I..."
"How would you know if you don't try that kind of thing?!" La Freya shouted at Xue Cai with a burning gaze.
"Do we have any other way to save Gu Cheng now? Gu Cheng became like this in order to save the two of us. If I can save him, I am willing to donate my blood." She continued to say to Xue Cai.
“If the quality of the blood is not good enough, I will make up for it with quantity. Your blood alone cannot make him awaken the power of the Demon King, so add mine. I will definitely save the ancient city.” La Freya declared.
Inspired by La Freya's determination, Xue Cai's eyes became firm. She nodded and said, "I understand. I am the same. I absolutely don't want to give up my senior to someone else."
After saying that, Setsuna also unbuttoned her shirt like La Freya.
The two women looked at each other and hugged Gu Cheng's body together.

chat room
King Arcadikia: "Fourth! True! Ancestor! You bastard! How dare you defile my daughter? Clean your neck and wait, I will kill you with my own hands!"
The Fourth True Ancestor: "No uncle, this is what I did in the video. It has nothing to do with me now."
King Arcadikia: "So what? Anyone who might attack my precious daughter is my enemy. Be prepared!"
Forgotten War King: "Mr. Lucas is well-known for being obsessed with his daughter. @Fourth True Ancestor, I wish you good luck, Gucheng."
Cain's witch: "Hey, you are too unreasonable, aren't you? In the final analysis, this matter is not the fault of the ancient city. It's not the ancient city that wants to suck La Freya's blood!"
King Arcadikia: "Shut up, witch of Cain. The cabbage I raised from childhood was eaten by a pig. Who among you can understand this kind of pain? If I don't cut this pig into pieces, I can't vent my hatred."
King Famillion: "Sir, I understand your pain and feelings very well."
King Arcadikia: "Could it be that your daughter is also..."
King Famillion: "Stop talking. My heart aches... Such a deep hatred can only be appeased by the blood of that pervert."
Failed Knight: “…”
【Yase Kensei stood on the deck, looking at the pillar of light in the sky. He had been observing for several hours without sleep, and his body was beginning to be exhausted, but he did not rest. He wanted to stay here to watch over his daughter and make sure she could go to the gods smoothly.
Now, at the end of the light column, the space was gradually distorting. Under the impact of the divine light column, cracks began to appear in the space there, which looked like a broken mirror. And just above the light column, the space there was twisted and rotated like cloth. Finally, the space could not bear the weight.
"click"
Along with this clear and bright shattering sound, a 'hole' with a diameter of ten meters appeared there, a large amount of divine energy poured out from the 'hole', and bursts of hymns came from the 'hole'. That was the passage to the higher dimension. As long as Xia Yin passed through it, he could go to the higher dimension where the gods were.
"Finally succeeded. In this way, Xia Yin can go to the side of God. Then, no one can hurt Xia Yin." Ye Ze Xiansheng murmured to himself with a redeemed expression.
But at this moment, a voice suddenly sounded.
"I'm sorry, uncle. I won't allow you to let Ye Se go to that god without my permission."
Xiansheng turned his head and looked into the distance, where there was a group of one man and two women, they were Gu Cheng, Xue Cai and La Freya. At this moment, the three of them exuded an awkward atmosphere, they awkwardly did not look at each other and kept a subtle distance.
"Fourth True Ancestor! I never thought you would survive, but it doesn't matter. Now Ixa (Warrior) has opened the passage to the higher dimension, and its spirit has reached its peak. You couldn't defeat it before, and it's even more impossible now. If you don't want to die, if you really care about Xia Yin, don't stop it. The child will soon be able to go to God and be happy." Xiansheng advised.
"Did Ye Se ask for this? Did she ever say that going to the side of God is the happiness she wants?" Gu Cheng asked quietly.
"What?" Xiansheng's resolute expression wavered for the first time.
Gu Cheng looked at him with sympathy. Now he was completely sure that this man didn't know anything.
"Is this kind of shit really the happiness she wants? Didn't you impose it on Ye Ze on your own initiative? The way you treat people is considered as a tool in society!"
".....Shut up, Fourth True Ancestor..."
Xiansheng's voice was trembling. His faith was shaken, and his face showed anger and confusion.
"You have no right to say those things. Because you don't even know the true face of your own beast, or even your own true face!"
"What do you mean?" Gu Cheng asked puzzledly.
"I have no reason to answer your question. Finally, let me tell you that if you plan to stop Ixa (Warrior), only destruction will greet you..." Xiansheng said coldly.
"Shut up, uncle!" Gu Cheng's scolding was like thunder, interrupting Xiansheng's words.
"No matter what Ye Se thinks, you decided to send her to that god without authorization, and you arrogantly think that it will give her happiness or something. I will stop your stupid behavior!" Gu Cheng roared. The moment he saw Xia Yin crying that night, he understood that Xia Yin did not want to go to the god. What she really wanted was to stay in this world.
Kojo looked up at Ixa (Warrior) in the sky and shouted, "You must be in pain, Yeze!"
The sound of the ancient city even overwhelmed the hymns coming from the 'void' and reached Xia Yin inside Ixa (Warrior).
"You don't recognize your biological parents, and you are forced by your adoptive father who is regarded as your home. You understand the pain of loneliness and sadness better than anyone else, but you treat others more gently than anyone else." Gu Cheng strode towards Xia Yin.
"You are so noble, you are really like an angel. Maybe it's true as your father said, if you go to the side of God, you can live happily. But, Ye Ze! Tell me loudly, are you really willing to do this? No matter what your choice is, I will help you. So, tell me, Ye Ze! What is happiness to you?"
The sound of the ancient city reached the inside of Ixa (Warrior) and was heard completely by Xia Yin.
"I, I, I want to stay in this world! Staying with my elder brother, my father, and everyone else, this is happiness for me!" Xia Yin was infected by the aura of the ancient city. Her shouts penetrated the cold armor of Ixa (war rider) and reached the people below.
"Xia Yin..."
Xiansheng looked at his daughter in the sky with a pale face. He had previously forced Xia Yin to transform into Ixa (Warrior) and forcibly sent her to a higher dimension. When he made this decision, he was ready for Xia Yin to not recognize him as his father, but when he heard that Xia Yin still regarded him as her father and wanted to stay by his side, he regretted his decision for the first time.
"It's too late..." Xiansheng said regretfully.
On the other side, Gu Cheng smiled with satisfaction after hearing Xia Yin's answer. He said loudly: "Leave it to me from now on. If the gods want to take you away, I will transform into the Demon King and take you back."
He turned around and looked at the two women and said, "Please, Setsuna, La Freya."
Both women nodded in response.
"Xiao Gucheng, the inheritor of the bloodline of 'Yaguan Yebo', is here to release your Jiasuo--" Gucheng stretched out his right arm and shouted.
"Coming soon, the Lion of Gold, the Double-Horned Deep Scarlet, and the third Familiar, the Dragon Snake of Mercury."
The lion of lightning and the crimson bicorn reappeared, their aura becoming even stronger after Kojou sucked the blood of Setsuna and La Freya.
Behind the two beasts, a third beast appeared. It was a two-headed dragon with two mercury-colored dragons spiraling around each other. It was the third beast of Ye Bo of Flame, the Mercury Dragon Snake.
Previously, Xue Cai and La Freya donated their blood to Gu Cheng in order to save him. Their original intention was to awaken the power of the Demon King, but they ended up awakening this beast by mistake. And the ability of this beast is exactly what Gu Cheng needs now.
“Roar——” Lion of Gold and Double-Horned Deep Crimson rushed to the sky from the left and right, swooping down towards Ixa (the War Rider) to avenge their previous defeat.
The two collided again, but this time the two beasts had the upper hand. Although Ixa (Warrior) used his divine wings to block the attacks of the two beasts, he was pushed to the ground by them, getting farther and farther away from the 'hole' leading to the higher dimension.
"boom"
Ixa (War Rider) slammed to the ground hard, and its two followers roamed around, lightning and vibration waves continuously hit Ixa (War Rider). Ixa (War Rider) created a series of magical shields to block the attacks of the two.
At this time, when Ixa (Warrior) was distracted by the two beasts, the Dragon Snake Mercury finally took action. It was like a venomous snake, vicious and ruthless. It instantly rushed behind Ixa (Warrior), and the two dragon heads bit the pair of divine wings behind it fiercely. In an instant, the divine wings were swallowed into its stomach.
"This is, swallowing space..." Xiansheng said as he looked at the scene in shock.
That's right, the Dragon Snake Mercury can swallow the entire space. Earlier, after Xue Cai and La Freya awakened it, it swallowed all the spirit in Gu Cheng's body into its stomach. Thanks to this, Gu Cheng was able to recover from his injuries.
The three beasts besieged Ixa (War Rider), with Lion Gold and Double Horned Deep Scarlet attracting attention, while Dragon Snake Mercury took the lead. The three worked in harmony and gradually forced Ixa (War Rider) into a desperate situation. At this time, Ixa (War Rider) also changed its tactics. It ignored the attacks on itself and rushed towards the ancient city. As long as it defeated the ancient city, the three beasts would be defeated without any attack.
"Want to knock me down? This is the right choice, but you forget an important point. I never fight alone!" said Gu Cheng.
"The daughter of the gods lives in me. The guardian of the army, the age of swords. The pusher of death will eventually bring victory!" A beautiful prayer poem sounded, and a spell gun appeared in La Freya's hand, with a bayonet at the front of the gun. As she finished chanting, the bayonet was surrounded by flashes of light, and the bluish-white light illuminated the surroundings like the sun, forming a huge light blade with a blade length of 15 meters.
This is none other than Arcadikia's trump card weapon, the Mimic Holy Sword. Originally, the Mimic Holy Sword needed the elven furnace of a large battleship to power it, but as a high-level psychic, La Freya could use herself as the elven furnace to perform this move.
La Freya slashed the light blade at the charging Ixa (Warrior), and the two collided violently. The light blade in La Freya's hand shattered, and Ixa (Warrior) was knocked back. The three-headed beasts rushed up and surrounded it.
La Freya continues to guard in front of the ancient city with a gun. Once Ixa (war rider) rushes up again, she will activate the mimic holy sword again to protect the ancient city.
At this time, Ixa (Warrior) has been forced into a desperate situation. Its spirit has been consumed a lot, and it can't rush past La Freya to defeat the ancient city. So Ixa (Warrior)'s combat AI decided to retreat, and it once again condensed its spirit wings and flew high into the sky.
But Lion Gold did not give it a chance. As the incarnation of lightning, it was never afraid of anyone who was faster than it. Lion Gold turned into a flash of lightning and hit Ixa (Warrior) from the side, causing it to pause. Dragon Snake Mercury caught up from behind and bit off its wings. Ixa (Warrior) fell to the ground without its wings.
At this time, Gu Cheng and others finally played their trump card.
The crimson bicorn rushed towards the fallen Ixa (war rider). On its back, a figure holding a spear stood against the wind, like a Valkyrie in mythology. It was Setsuna.
"The Son of God of Suanni and the High Sword Wizard are worshipped here." Xue Cai jumped into the air and rushed towards Ixa (war rider). The vibration waves of the divinity on the Snow Wolf emitted a bright light.
"Demon-breaking dawn, Snow Cloud God Wolf, quickly help me destroy the evil gods and ghosts with the might of steel!" Xue Cai stabbed the Snow Cloud Wolf at Ixa (War Rider). Now Ixa (War Rider)'s spirit was exhausted and he couldn't resist the attack of the Snow Cloud Wolf at all. The next moment, the Snow Cloud Wolf stabbed Ixa (War Rider)'s belt, separating the Ixa Fist Gun from the Ixa Belt. Xia Yin was freed from Ixa (War Rider) and fell to the ground. At this time, a figure jumped up and caught Xia Yin. It was Gu Cheng.
"Brother." Xia Yin looked at Gu Cheng who was hugging her.
"Ok?"
"Thank you." Xia Yin smiled at Gu Cheng.
