Chapter 45: The Vanishing Power

  Seven killings, chaotic thief of the world.

  Bajun, a general who dominates the world with his unorthodox tactics.

  Greedy wolf, treacherous and cunning villain.

  Seven killings, broken army, greedy wolf appear together, forming "killing breaking wolf" situation, the world will inevitably change hands.

  "Aren't you being too sensitive?" Mu Shen Lin lazily leaned against the back of his chair, cradling his coffee cup. He had indeed heard Sun Bo Fan mention the ominous sign of three stars aligning, but he didn't think that a mere celestial phenomenon could change the course of world events.

  "I will never be wrong!" Sun Bofan argued with a hint of anger, astrology was the technique he took pride in, it was the inheritance of his family for thousands of years, Lin Lang's words were undoubtedly a challenge to Sun Bofan's dignity.

  "I'll just say it casually." Lin Lang immediately smiled and nodded in agreement, he didn't want to have a conflict with Sun Bofan over such a trivial matter, he was willing to let him say whatever he wanted, as long as this fool wouldn't impulsively go find Su Qiyue, "Anyway, the celestial sign has already appeared, you can't change it, so don't worry about it."

  Sun Bo Fan closed his eyes in despair, knowing she was in danger but unable to help her, and even fleeing from her side in a sorry state. How could I be so weak! Why can't humans like the gods? Why must humans become her burden?! I refuse to accept it! Refuse to accept it! "I want to help her!" Sun Bo Fan suddenly opened his eyes, his dazzling gaze flashing with unyielding determination under the night sky. When he left her before, it wasn't to abandon her, but to stand by her side and protect her in the future. How could he forget his original intention? Even a moth flying into flames can make the fire dim slightly.

  "You're crazy!" Lin Lang almost threw the coffee cup away, almost roaring, "Last time you didn't see it, your power can't even get close to her, what makes you help her?"

  "Who says my power is no good?" Sun Bofan adjusted his glasses, the unfamiliar tone making Lin Lang so surprised that he almost didn't dare to recognize him. "Humans can also possess powers that make gods and demons tremble."

  Although he had already guessed the answer, Lin Lang still asked persistently, "Are you going to use a forbidden technique?" Sun Bo Fan, you crazy bastard, quickly say it's not, quickly say it! Lin Lang roared in his heart.

  "Yes." Sun Bo's reply was firm and decisive, with a tone that brooked no questioning.

  "You're crazy! Crazy!" Lin Lang roared, "Is it worth it for a woman? Is it worth it? What's so good about her? Let you pay with your life to protect her?"

  Sun Bo calmly stared at Lin Lang, his resolute expression sending a chill down Lin Lang's spine. Lin Lang suddenly laughed and said with a nearly ruthless and disdainful tone, "She doesn't need your protection at all, she is from the God Clan."

  "This world has no divine tribe," Sun Bofan said calmly, "The order of heaven and earth is changing, this world no longer has gods or demons, only human beings, with a lifespan of just over a hundred years."

  "What's this?" Lin Lang grasped the windowsill, and the wooden windowsill suddenly burst forth with new buds, its roots stretching out in all directions like vines.

  "Strength." Sun Bo Fan replied truthfully, placing his hand on Lin Lang's, the originally thriving new sprouts suddenly withered away, their roots losing their extending strength, as if everything that had just happened was just an illusion.

  "Is it worth it?" Lin Lang asked again. Humans cherish their hundred-year lifespan, so why does he feel like he's lived a long life?

  "The situation of killing the wolf has been set, and the world will inevitably change hands. The prosperity of human beings is not here." Sun Bofan persuaded his close friend, "Perhaps it's fate."

  "Alas..." Lin Lang sighed, he knew Sun Bo Fan's stubbornness all too well. Now that he had said this, no matter what he said, he wouldn't change his original intention. "Don't elevate the issue to the level of world prosperity, isn't it just for a woman? Do you have to speak so solemnly?"

  "She is the key." Sun Bo Fan replied truthfully, "And..."

  "Alright, alright," Lin Lang impatiently interrupted, "don't give me that nonsense about life being short and doing something meaningful. In short, I won't watch you go get yourself killed, that's all I'll say."

  Sun Bofan smiled elegantly and said, "Thank you."

  "The fog is rising." Su Qi was walking aimlessly in the forest, and gradually discovered that a thin mist had appeared in the forest. The path ahead, which was already unclear, became even more blurred and unrecognizable. However, the forest shrouded in mist seemed like a fairyland, with its ethereal and dreamy quality making Su Qi's heart flutter with excitement.

  "Meow... Meow..." The ball of fur, imitating Su Qi's serious gaze, stared intently ahead. Although nothing was visible to the naked eye, the ball of fur still had its eyes wide open as if trying to see something through the fog.

  Su Qi didn't know how long she had been staying here, her phone and watch were all dead, relying on her heart's estimation, it should have been almost two hours. Why didn't she feel a bit tired? Moreover, the ever-changing scenery here made Su Qi feel very uneasy, quiet, really too quiet, as if there was no one or animal except herself and Mao Tuan, even not a single insect, too strange. "Mao Tuan, are you afraid?"

  "Meow meow?" The ball of fur tilted its head, gazing at Su Qi Ruo as if deeply pondering why she would ask such a thing. Isn't the scenery here lovely? There's fragrance everywhere.

  Cats are truly rich in expression, allowing people to easily guess their thoughts from their facial expressions. Su Qi couldn't help but think that if it weren't for Mao Tuan always being by her side, she probably wouldn't be so calm and collected, at least not after walking half a day in the forest before feeling scared.

  "Since you're not afraid, let's keep moving forward." The demonic tribe's spiritual awareness was keen. If Mao Dun hadn't sensed anything, there shouldn't be a problem. Besides, since there weren't any ferocious beasts around, there really wasn't anything to fear. Su Qi thought this way and led Mao Dun into the depths of the forest where mist swirled.

  "What's going on with Su Qi?" Lu Ke carefully examined Su Qi's body all over, but there was nothing unusual, just like she was asleep. No matter how Lu Ke and She Ruiwen called out to her, she didn't react at all.

  "Could it be that the old man stimulated her into a vegetative state?" Si Ruiwen tried to recall, previously the old man had released a charm to attack Su Qiruo, Su Qiruo was indeed traumatized, but not to the point of having no reaction at all.

  "What?" Lu Ke's expression changed upon hearing She Ruiwen's words, his eyes shooting towards him like a poisonous dagger.

  "Shen Ruiwen smiled wryly, 'How is that possible! I was just guessing, with me around, how could she have been made like this by the personal clan. Didn't you notice her powers weakening?'" Shen Ruiwen hastily changed the subject.

  Reminded by Jiang Ruwen, Lu Kecai suddenly realized that Su Qiruo's power seemed to be weakening. Previously, Su Qiruo's inherited power had clearly awakened, and logically speaking, her power should only have grown stronger. However, the current situation was extremely stable, which meant that her power was weakening at an alarming rate. Her body was within the boundary, and there were only Jiang Ruwen and herself around, so how could her power be weakening?

  "Is there someone else inside the boundary?" Lu Ke asked uncertainly.

  "How is that possible!" Shi Ruwen flatly denied, with his and Lu Ke's abilities, yet they couldn't find the third person.

  "What's going on with Su Qi?" Lu Ke's expression was grave for the first time.

  Jiugao actually got the male lead's name wrong, sorry...
