"I thought Jiangshuai-zun had lost his core?!"

"I thought Jiangshuai-zun had lost his core?!"

"How can he still use his spiritual sword then?!"

"Why the hell are you asking me that?!"

Cale couldn't help but scowl at the words he's hearing before looking back at Jiang Cheng who was stating at his sister in his arms.

"How is she?"

Jiang Cheng looks at the redhead with a look of despair before he let himself cry.

He didn't speak nor tell anything that weighing in him, he just cried.

Cale watched him with an expression slowly turning into a horrified one.

When the redhead kneels to check the girl's pulse, he found none.

All that is left was the cold and motionless body of Jiang Yanli.

Cale could feel himself breaking down, his record ability doing its horrible job again as Jiang Cheng's cries continued to resound.

The redhead slowly reaches for the girl's cold hand before caressing it on his cheeks.

"Shijie..."

He could feel himself trembling uncontrollably, yet there were no tears falling from his eyes.

He doesn't want to cry, he does not have the emotional capacity to show weakness in the middle of a war.

"Xiao Wang." He calls then, the sword soon cut through its way amidst the crowds before it landed on the redhead's palms.

"Let her go, Jiang Cheng."

"No!"

"Let. Her. Go."

"Shut up! Shut the fuck up! She's not dead! I refuse to acknowledge it!"

At some point, Jiang Cheng felt a painful sting on his cheek as he stared at the redhead with a dumbfounded look.

"Let...her...go...Jiang Cheng. She is dead as Jiang Yanli but in another world, she will reincarnate."

Jiang Cheng feels like everyone had gone mad at such nonsense they are spouting.

"Are you crazy?!"

Cale felt his shackle tightening then, as if it was warning him to stop whatever he is planning.

"Yes, I am. I already did it once, and nothing will change if I do it again for the second time."

Jiang Cheng could feel a cold shiver run down to his spine.

In front of him is not Wei Xun, nor Wei Xianghuan, nor Jiangshuai-zun.

In front of him is Cale Henituse.

The man who lost everything and ascended to Godhood without a choice.

Before Jiang Cheng could give his permission, the redhead had stabbed Jiang Yanli's dead body then. He couldn't help but close his eyes from the sight of his sister being impaled with a sword.
