I am the savior, but I am being asked by Alicia and the others to pay me back.

Just like a wanderer shivering in the cold wind, he keeps moving forward without sleep...

Finally I found a warm quilt and a home where I can rest my soul.

"At the end of the day... I just wanted someone to talk to."

There is nothing in this world that can get better just by speaking it out.

But there is a pain that will make people collapse if it is kept in the heart.

Ye Ming, who finally realized this, lay in Zhen's arms, like an innocent child, with bitter tears flowing continuously.

"I don't know what you've been through."

Feeling his chest getting wet, Shin seemed to recall some vague memories.

"But I understand what you want to convey to us."

Her voice is like a firefly dancing slowly in the night, blessing those who fall asleep with a good dream.

"I don't know what you're about to face, but..."

As if to resonate with Ye Ming's heart, she really closed the distance between herself and him in her arms.

"Whatever choice you make, there is no need to regret it."

"It doesn't matter what the ending is."

"I don't care about the days ahead, because from the moment we met..."

Having said this, Zhen paused for a moment out of shyness, but she still took advantage of the moonlight and mustered up the courage to finish her words:

"From the time we met to the time we fell in love, this period of time has been enough to make us happy."

At that moment, Ye Ming felt that his hands were interlocked with someone else's hands, but the touch from the palm of his hand was not real.

He turned around and found that Ying had appeared behind him without him noticing...

She frowned slightly, her face full of shyness and jealousy.

"I am also...same as my sister."

She was not good at speaking and didn't know how to express her feelings in beautiful, poetic terms like Zhen did.

She could only hold Ye Ming's hand tightly and use her clearly audible heartbeat to prove that her feelings were no less than her sister's.

Then, under the witness of the moonlight, the girl said without regret:

"Ye Ming, just go and pursue it, even if it's just a moment of light."

After gaining the courage to face his true heart, Ying Hezhen cleared all the heavy burdens for Ye Ming that night.

"I will...let that light..."

···········

The day of disaster is getting closer.

As before, Ye Ming built a shelter, marked all the locations where abyss rifts would appear, and buried enough gunpowder and thunder wedges with the power of thunder element.

He asked Ying to go to Kanreya instead of Zhen, but Zhen was worried that Ying would be in danger.

Ying was also worried that his sister, who was weak in martial arts, would not be safe even if she stayed in Inazuma.

Ye Ming certainly knew this. He had tried similar combinations before, and the result was...

When the injured Ying rushed back to Inazuma, he found that his sister and others had been submerged in the dark waves.

"About this point..."

Ye Ming told the two of them the worst consequences.

Hearing that Ying was only injured, Zhen quickly agreed to this plan, but Ying was obviously more worried about her sister and proposed to be with Zhen.

"In that case, what will Inazuma do? What about Chiyo and Saimiya?"

"Woo..."

Seeing Ying's embarrassment, Ye Ming felt as if he was seeing his past self.

He promised the two:

"This time, I'll find a way."

"I believe in Ye Ming."

Zhen comforted Ying beside him:

"Blocking the rift in the abyss by blasting can reduce the number of monsters. Besides, Ye Ming is by my side, so it's okay."

"Ye Ming..."

Ying said in a tone that was about to cry:

"Sister, I'm leaving it to you."

"Ah."

Ye Ming nodded, and Zhen added:

"Do it without regrets. No matter what the result is, Ying and I will gladly accept it."

"No regrets...huh?"

Ye Ming looked at the palm of his hand and found that the lines on it were obviously abnormal.

Before being discovered by the careful Zhen, he quickly pulled his hand back.

"Let's start preparing."

In the following days, the entire Inazuma became busy, but Ye Ming, who had revealed the entire plan, disappeared.

············

"I should have cleared all the remains of the demon gods in this area, right?"

In an area that is forbidden to enter by Tianling, Ye Ming, with the blood of monsters stained on his body, sat on the ground and gasped heavily.

——Not only the remains of the demon god, you also wiped out all the monsters here.

"Then I'll leave it to you to gather their resentment and remnants together."

According to Ye Ming's request, the system gathered all the demon residues in the area into a black sphere, which also contained the spiritual consciousness of many monsters.

It can be said that this seemingly ominous polymer is the crystallization of their power.

——Be careful, Ye Ming. Although it is not as filthy as the abyss, it is still a kind of pollution.

"I see."

Ye Ming walked to the black sphere, activated the power of the Ruler of Reason, and began to analyze the composition principle of the residue.

Then, he separated the energy from the resentment, extracted the usable part, and absorbed it into his body.

The remaining filthy resentment was directly "purified" in a rough way.

Scavengers can replenish their nutrition by eating corpses. Ye Ming is also using a similar method to suck all available strength out of the corpses.

No matter whether it is the remnants of the demon god or the remains of a monster, Ye Ming will accept it as long as he can take it.

"Are there any remnants of the demon god elsewhere?"

——According to Shin and Ying’s description, the Demon War that Inazuma fought back then was not very large in scale, and you have absorbed it all in these days.

"Really."

——Ye Ming, the power drawn from monsters and demons is messy and chaotic, and it is difficult to directly transform it into your power.

——When absorbing them, it is inevitable that you will be harmed by the resentment that has not been completely removed, which is not cost-effective.

"Yes, I know very well."

——Then why do you still do this?

"I don't have enough power now. I will tell you when everything is ready."

——The remains of the demon god are gone, where else can you draw strength from?

"Looking for an old friend."

After speaking, Ye Ming came in front of Shenying.

His arrival made the towering cherry tree rustle, as if it were laughing.

"You know what? In the near future, the entire Inazuma will be infected with filth."

Ye Ming walked up to Shenying, stroked Shenying's trunk with his hand, and said earnestly:

"At that time, you will have to use up all your strength just to purify these filths."

"Not only that, but you will be weighed down, corroded by filth, and covered in tumors."

"Rather than falling to that point, why not give me the power now."

123. If you are trapped in darkness and can no longer find your way back...

Ye Ming did not expect Shen Ying to understand what he said.

Originally, he planned to use the power of the Ruler of Reason to analyze the energy flow of the Divine Sakura and then absorb it.

"This is?"

But just when Ye Ming was about to do this, a warm light suddenly appeared on his chest.

"Hana Sanri's mask?"

The last memory with Hanasakura, which he had always treasured in his pocket, resonated with Kamizakura.

The fox mask flew into the air, then turned into a cherry pink light and flowed into Shenying's body.

The memory of Shenying's purification, the pain of the future Inazuma, and the feelings of Ye Ming and Hanasari were integrated into Shenying's body in the most direct way.

"Woo!"

In an instant, the flying cherry blossoms covered the sky, and the cherry light with a faint fragrance surrounded Ye Ming and Shen Ying, as if they had fallen into a sea of ​​flowers.

And at that moment, Kamizakura's will was revealed through the image of Hanasakura.

The masked girl came to Ye Ming and gently embraced him in her arms.

A gentle voice sounded in his ears:

"Thank you, and... please."

When the cherry light faded and the petals and leaves fell, Ye Ming felt a force constantly pouring into his body.

Although the power was very warm and the way it filled Ye Ming's body was very gentle, a lot of power had already accumulated in Ye Ming's body at this time.

The body that was already filled was once again welcomed by a huge flow of energy, which made Ye Ming's body begin to glow abnormally.

——No! Ye Ming, your body can't bear it!

Previously, he had been constantly collecting the remains of the demon god. The indigestible power had already shown signs of "stretching" Ye Ming's body...

Therefore, his palms and other lines on his skin appear to be very "cracked".

And now, the huge energy of the Divine Sakura has also flowed into Ye Ming's body, almost "bursting" him.

"Fortunately... As long as you don't use it, it will stay stable."

After receiving all the power of Shenying, Ye Ming's body was like a bomb.

Not only is it covered with cracks, but it is also emitting bright light.

——I don’t understand, are you going to self-destruct?

"Haha... Woo! Don't talk for now. Let me take a break."

Part of the power of the Herrscher of the Void and the Herrscher of the Principle, the wind element and the rock element, and the power of the lightning element given by Shadow and Truth...

The power extracted from the massive remains of the demons, and the power of the divine cherry blossoms.

These energies did not merge with each other, but instead continued to collide and stir.

Ye Ming was afraid that he would accidentally leak out the precious power he had collected.

Of course, to exaggerate a little, he was also afraid that he would suddenly "explode."

——The mastery of strength is a gradual process. If you devour energy recklessly like you do, you won't be able to use it freely in actual combat.
