"Your retreat and weakness made him more aggressive. You were like a tool without your own thoughts, being fooled by Otto at will. But now I want to save, I want to face it, but you still ask me to consider the overall situation. Who will light the fire for those who are in danger and those who are in despair?"
"I'm tired and don't want to listen to your preaching anymore. Just disappear from my mind."
Fu Hua, who was in the Yu Duchen state, felt as if her heart was pierced by a sword. The intense pain in her heart pulled at her memory, making her feel as if she had returned to the day five hundred years ago.
"Did I really do something wrong?"
……
The girl standing on the tall building looked into the distance. The scorching sun was swallowed by the earth, the glow of the sunset faded, and night fell.
Even in the darkness, even if the past is gone.
Under this starry sky, there are still many roads that Kiana needs to travel alone.
"Go and say goodbye to him..."
This is the testimonial
I’m glad that you’ve read this far. As expected, this is a post of thanks for being put on the shelves.
First of all, I would like to express my sincere gratitude to all the book lovers for their support of this book. Even though its performance is almost crushed compared with the same period, the author is still very happy, because the failure of the previous book made me depressed for a long time. I thought this book would also be quietly drowned among the many masterpieces, but I didn’t expect that there are still so many readers.
Briefly describe this book.
About the opening
I have been thinking about the beginning of this book for a long time. Originally, I just wanted to write a purely refreshing article, imitating those best-selling works, but after I finally put pen to paper, I still followed my heart and wanted to write a story that was not so bad.
However, due to the author's writing skills, this beginning is indeed quite boring. I guess many friends have felt bored and deleted the book before even reading the third chapter. These should have been the golden three chapters, but the important turning point was written by me in the fifth chapter, so it is understandable that it failed.
About the content
The content of this book should be a development of misunderstanding, with the asymmetry of information between each other driving the collision of contradictions.
The key point is naturally Su Jue who wants to survive and Kiana who wants to save the world. It happens that both of them are in a stage with serious psychological defects at this time. Two people with defects may be able to huddle together for warmth, but the greater possibility is that they will fall into a deeper vortex.
Su Jue used abduction to play a strong role for Qiyana, allowing her to discover the shining points of human nature, but in fact he was also saving himself. He was originally the host chosen by Qian Lu, and the problem was even bigger. He just used the power of domination to put himself into the play and forget the past. So sometimes don't be surprised when the protagonist fails, he is not a perfect person.
Of course, the author is also Qianlu's reserve host. When some plots are strange, it is very likely that the author's own shortcomings are at work.
About the future
What everyone is more concerned about is the issue of the heroine. The heroine of this book is already written in the title. Of course, whether they can be together depends on future developments.
Probably not about harem. I took a rough look at the list and basically the popular ones are about harem. Although I really want to follow the trend, forget it.
Then there is the protagonist's stance. He has his own stance and will not help humans or Honkai. Most of the time, he stays behind the scenes and uses puppets to cause trouble.
I also found that there are many Otto fans. Although I also like Otto, in this book he appears more as a villain and takes a lot of blame. After all, the things he did were indeed a bit... not so kind.
There are also people like Fu Hua Mei, who may not be so perfect. I hope readers who are fans of these characters will be gentle with their criticism.
Okay, that’s all for now. I’ll leave more in the story.
It will be on the shelves tomorrow. If you can give more support, this book will go further. Thank you again to everyone who has read this far.
Thanks.

Chapter 69: Where the lights are dim, someone is waiting for you to return. Please order first
In this disaster called collapse, no one can be immune. When the pale giant beast fiercely slapped its claws over his head, only despair was reflected in its pupils.
"Who can help me……"
click-
Along with the sound of the Sub-Sky Spear piercing the shell, the last raging Honkai beast turned into lavender Honkai energy and disappeared. Kiana jumped off it, breathing heavily, and picked up the little girl who collapsed on the ground.
"Don't worry, I'm here." Kiana's smile was full of hope, dispelling the fear in the little girl's heart.
Infected by her emotions, the little girl who was about to burst into tears stopped crying abruptly, raised her hand to wipe her tears, and looked at Kiana with pure eyes, "Big sister, are you an angel?"
No, I'm just a sinner who wants to atone for his sins.
She wanted to answer like this, but seeing the yearning eyes of the little girl in her arms, she reached out and rubbed her nose, half jokingly saying, "Yes."
Soon, the people affected by the disaster gathered around, and seeing that her daughter was not injured, her mother kept thanking Kiana.
"Now that the monster has been eliminated, you should all go to take shelter first."
Although the pain in her body continued to increase, she still cheered herself up and called on the rescued survivors to evacuate quickly. The smile on her face gradually disappeared only after everyone had safely left.
At some point, the damaged lines under her clothes were already faintly visible, and her clothes were soaked with sweat.
"The range of the Honkai beast's attacks has become larger. In the past, they would target cities, but now even the suburbs are not spared?" There was deep worry in her eyes. The collapse of Sky City was getting more and more serious, as if something was constantly attracting them.
She originally thought that it was the power of the Herrscher of the Void that was attracting the Honkai, but as Kiana continued to master the power of the Herrscher of the Void, she was no longer as ignorant of the Honkai energy that was emanating from her body as before. She knew very well that these Honkai beasts were not pursuing the power of the Herrscher. Moreover, if they were attracted by her, these disasters should have appeared around her.
Sky City is definitely hiding unknown secrets. During the time she was tracking down Grayshu's whereabouts, she occasionally found some strange clues. Maybe Grayshu's disappearance is also related to this matter.
After confirming that there were no refugees in the disaster area, Kiana continued to walk towards the suburbs. Fu Hua had become withdrawn because of what happened in the afternoon, and now she was alone.
"Let's get to the bottom of it after we say goodbye to him." She raised her head and looked into the distance. The moon was already high in the sky, and the lights of the Sky City behind her were already on, but the suburbs on the edge were all dark.
Just take a sneak peek and leave once you're sure he's safe.
As the collapse continued, blockades began to be implemented in various parts of Sky City. Traffic to and from the suburbs was cut off, and Kiana could only walk to the suburbs.
Walking on the deserted streets, with only the bright moonlight and the starry sky as my companions, the whole world seemed to have been forgotten.
She suddenly remembered the day when she first met Su Jue. There were also rampant Honkai beasts, and the sky was also full of stars. Only the dim light of street lamps sprinkled on the streets.
Kiana still remembered that it was Su Jue who carried her on his back when she was unconscious and walked on this street. She didn't know how he, with such poor physical strength, could carry her across half of the city to get here.
However, when she arrived in the suburbs, she saw complete darkness. Apart from the street lights of public facilities, there was no light at all.
It was around seven or eight o'clock, when things were getting busy, but in such a large suburb, the silence was eerily quiet.
"It doesn't look like they were attacked by Honkai beasts."
The building was not damaged and looked more like a regular migration. Kiana walked a distance further and stopped. The road ahead had been blocked by a roadblock and the standing signboard was covered with dust.
[We have been attacked by a Honkai monster. All residents here have been relocated to the West City District. Please do not approach.]
Looking at the tip above, it was three days ago.
"Have you moved away?" He breathed a sigh of relief for some reason. Compared to the city with many shelters, the defense force in the suburbs was still too weak. Under such circumstances, migration was the best solution.
It's just inevitable that I feel a little regretful. After all, after this separation, I don't know when we will meet again.
She stood there, looking in the direction of the residential building, and did not leave for a long time.
"Forget it, now that I'm here, I might as well go take a look." After wandering there for a long time, Kiana finally convinced herself with the traditional "I'm already here" thinking.
Su Jue's home is some distance from the main road, and he needs to go through an alley. Because all the houses around him have been relocated, the alley is particularly dark at this time. Fortunately, Kiana has the power of a Herrscher after all, so night vision is naturally no problem.
There used to be stray cats and dogs roaming in the alley, but now there is not even a trace of a mouse.
Narrow and compact, as I continued walking through the alley, an inexplicable sense of tension gradually brewed in my heart.
But the length of the alley is limited after all. After Kiana passed through it along the route she remembered, the space in front of her suddenly became empty, and a large residential area appeared in her sight.
Unfortunately, the residential area remained the same, without any lights, and even the moon seemed to pay little attention to this area, not even willing to shed its white silver light.
All the lights in the houses are out, and there is no one coming or going.
Will he be home?
Although she knew this was an impossible answer, Kiana couldn't help but think so. The corridor leading to Su Jue's house was dark and dim. She was only ten meters away from her destination, but she didn't dare to move forward again.
Maybe it's the fear of disappointment.
That's it for now.
She turned and left, but when she looked back, she saw the only lit lamp among the thousands of extinguished lights.
The gray-haired boy just opened the window and met her eyes.
Chapter 70 Lighthouse, please order first
"Hey, Xilin...ah, no, it should be Kiana. I didn't expect you to really come back."
“…” She stood there, choking for a moment.
"You knew I was coming?"
"I don't know. It's just a feeling. I thought maybe one day you would come back to visit. For this reason, I specially changed the light bulb to a brighter one. After all, everyone has moved away now and it's too dark here. And you've only been here once. If you don't turn on the light, you might not be able to find your home." After saying that, Su Jue seemed to remember something and hurriedly said, "Wait a minute, I forgot to turn on the light in the corridor."
Su Jue turned on the switch, and the dark corridor was completely lit up. Because no one in the neighborhood was willing to pay for it, the light bulbs here had not been repaired since they broke. Instead, everyone moved away, and Su Jue replaced all the broken light bulbs here.
"Now the corridor is not afraid of the dark." He walked out of the house and looked at Qiana standing at the door with some doubts, "Don't you want to come in and sit down?"
The long white hair covered Kiana's eyes, so she couldn't see Su Jue's appearance clearly through her tears, but she reacted immediately, secretly wiped away her tears while turning around, and regained her usual composure.
She is a strong Valkyrie, and Kiana doesn't want Su Jue to see her vulnerable side.
"Okay." She replied. Even if the stars and the moon were without light, even if the world was dark, as long as there was a faint light to illuminate her, she would be able to find the direction she wanted to go.
……
The house was still the same, but there were a lot of things piled up in the living room, and the messy sundries almost took up half of the space.
"Sorry, the house is a bit messy. Let me clean it up first." There were still a lot of miscellaneous items piled on the table. These were the things Su Jue had packed up to take away when moving, including various books and old clothes.
Su Jue took a deep breath and picked up the pile of books. Unfortunately, he obviously overestimated his physical strength. As soon as he picked it up, his hands felt heavy and he lost his balance. Just when he thought he was going to fall, a slender arm easily supported him and the pile of books, and took the book from his hand with one hand, which stunned him.
"Where are you going to put them?" Kiana's voice interrupted Su Jue's daze. Seeing the girl easily holding up the books that he could not hold with great effort, Su Jue scratched his head in embarrassment.
"Put it here for now." He moved a cardboard box and piled the books against the wall.
With the cooperation of the two, they finally tidied up the place. Because they were preparing to move, the whole room seemed empty after the tidying up.
A bit deserted.
"Why are you alone?" Not seeing Su Jue's mother, Kiana felt something was wrong, and a bad guess gradually emerged in her mind.
However, Su Jue did not feel sad. Instead, he explained happily, "Before, Shencheng Medical Center in the city center actually offered a free medical assistance lottery. I didn't expect that I was lucky enough to win a spot. My mother is receiving treatment there."
"Treatment? Then your illness..."
"..." Su Jue didn't say anything, but the smile on his face was a little stiff.
Kiana realized that she had let the cat out of the bag and immediately reacted. She quickly explained, "I'm sorry, I didn't mean to look through your medical records."
After a few seconds of silence, Su Jue shook his head and said, "It's okay. My illness is not a secret. I stayed here this time to say goodbye to you."
"bid farewell……"
Suddenly, she felt a little bitter in her heart. She suddenly remembered the purpose of coming here, which was also to say goodbye. But after what happened before, she suddenly didn't want to mention this word. Unexpectedly, Su Jue still said it.
Su Jue didn't notice her change in expression. He looked at the messy room and sighed, "After staying here for so long, I still feel reluctant to move. Although my bastard father abandoned us, he worked hard to earn this house. Now because of the collapse, everyone has to move to a safer area."
It turned out to be just moving.
The spirit returned to her dull eyes. She didn't know when she, who was so heartless, would become sentimental because of other people's words. Qiana didn't notice her change. She felt much more relaxed after realizing that Su Jue said goodbye to her only because he was moving. "After all, disasters are becoming more and more frequent now, and migration is also a last resort. However, the main force should have moved away three days ago. You stayed to... wait for me?"
Obviously, this block was relocated three days ago, but Su Jue still stayed here. Qiyana suddenly realized that it was not that he didn't want to leave, but he was just waiting to say his final goodbye to her. He was afraid that he couldn't find his way home, so he turned on the lights, afraid that he would not see anyone when he returned, and waited alone in this deserted residential area for three days.
"I guess so. After all, we are friends. If you leave without permission, you still have to say goodbye." With a faint smile on his face, Su Jue slapped his head and suddenly remembered that he had not prepared tea for the guests. "Sorry, I forgot to pour the tea."
"No need..." Before Kiana could finish her sentence, Su Jue had already run to the kitchen and started boiling water to make tea, leaving her alone in the living room.
Of course, what she didn't know was that Su Jue, who was in the kitchen at this moment, quietly lit up the power of the Herrscher, and outside the residential building, Ji Zi, who had just returned from investigating the traces of the World Snake, was controlled with a confused look on her face.
"What's going on? Can't I just go home?"
Su Jue glanced at Qiana sitting in the living room and answered mercilessly: "No, you have to find a way to stay outside for one night, or I will lock you up in the Domination Theater. You can choose one."
Fortunately, I discovered Ji Zi's movement in time, otherwise something bad would have happened if she came back.
"What a heartless man! You didn't bring a woman home, did you? Let me tell you, Kiana..."
"Shut up!" Su Jue interrupted Ji Zi rudely and directly controlled her to run to the wasteland in the suburbs. He waited until there was no one around before releasing her control.
Looking at the empty wasteland, Ji Zi gritted her teeth. She actually ended up in such a place. "This is really too much."
Jizi was hungry and tired after a busy day, and was kicked out of the house as soon as she got home. She was full of resentment, but there was nothing she could do because she was someone else's puppet.
"Let's just spend the night outside." Sighing helplessly, Ji Zi touched her pocket and found that she didn't have a penny.
