Time seemed to freeze at that moment.
Kotaro Sawamura's forward-rushing body, brimming with frenzied force, abruptly halted in mid-air. Spiderweb-like cracks appeared on the fruit knife in his hand, centered on the tip, and then, with a "whoosh," shattered into countless metallic dust particles under an incomprehensible, gentle yet irresistible force!
Immediately afterwards, Gu Chuan casually raised his finger upwards.
An invisible current instantly lifted Kotaro Sawamura's frenzied body, as if bound by invisible chains, suspending him in mid-air, unable to move.
"!"
This illogical scene completely stunned Eriri and Sayuri, who had just recovered from the brink of death.
After a brief silence, the nerve that had been stretched to its limit finally snapped.
"—Gu Chuan!!!"
Eriri let out a blood-curdling cry, filled with the relief of surviving a catastrophe. She scrambled forward, like a wounded little animal that had found its only refuge, burying herself tightly in the warm embrace that gave her boundless security, and sobbing loudly.
"Waaaaah... I'm so scared... I'm really scared... Daddy..."
"It's alright now." Gu Chuan gently stroked her back, which was trembling with fear, his voice gentle and reassuring. "I'm here, everything will be alright."
He turned his gaze to Sayuri, who was equally shaken.
"Auntie, can you tell me what happened?"
Under Gu Chuan's calming aura, Xiao Baihe gradually calmed down from her fear. She looked at her daughter, who was almost driven to collapse by her husband's madness, and then at the boy who had descended like a god and easily resolved the crisis. Her eyes were filled with gratitude and guilt.
She sighed and slowly recounted the tragedy that had been buried for many years, a tragedy belonging to this family.
"My relationship with Kotaro... actually broke down many years ago."
Xiaobaihe's voice was tinged with weariness and hoarseness.
"What truly led us to become strangers was the bullying incident Eriri experienced in middle school."
She told Gu Chuan that back then, in order to protect her daughter who was ostracized by the whole school and even suffered psychological trauma, she went to Gu Chuan, who had just transferred to the school and had shown extraordinary abilities, behind her husband's back and had nowhere else to turn. She asked him to use any means to protect Eriri.
Gu Chuan agreed. He used "extreme methods" that would be unforgettable for all the perpetrators.
Although the bullying stopped and Eriri was safe, the incident left an unhealable rift between the couple. The husband couldn't understand or accept this irrational "violence," while Sayuri was willing to fight the entire world to protect her daughter.
From that day on, this family existed in name only.
Although Eriri received Gu Chuan's protection, she was also separated from the outside world by a thick barrier and lost all her friends. Gu Chuan became her only light and only companion during that darkest time.
"Is there... a ghost in the house?" Eriri lifted her head from Gu Chuan's arms, her blue eyes, red and swollen from crying, filled with fear.
“The situation is more complicated than that.” Gu Chuan shook his head, pointing to Sawamura Kotaro, who was still suspended in mid-air, emitting unconscious roars, and explained:
“There is indeed an evil spirit born of obsession that has been lurking in your home. But what really caused all this is something more troublesome than an evil spirit—a demon.”
"Demons are monsters born from the most extreme negative emotions of humankind. My uncle... because of long-term repression, jealousy, and resentment, his heart was filled with negative energy, which is why demons took advantage of his weakness and eroded his mind."
"And when he returned home today, the negative emotions on him, amplified countless times by the demons, unexpectedly resonated with the evil spirits that already existed here, and ultimately... merged together."
Gu Chuan's expression became more solemn than ever before.
"A fusion of evil spirits and demons... To be honest, this is the first time I've ever seen anything like it. It's an extremely rare and exceptionally dangerous mutation. The black mist you see is the malice emanating from this fusion, enough to corrupt everything."
Just as Gu Chuan was explaining all of this—
A sudden change occurs!
"—Roara ...
Suspended in mid-air, Kotaro Sawamura suddenly let out a shrill scream that was inhuman and filled with extreme pain!
The thick black mist that had been swirling around him seemed to have found an outlet, and it swirled back, transforming into a black tornado that poured wildly into his body from his wide-open, twisted mouth!
His body, like an inflated balloon, began to swell and deform violently!
Then, something happened that terrified Eriri and Sayuri!
Several strange, black claws, covered with blood-red eyeballs and resembling spider legs, suddenly emerged from Kotaro Sawamura's mouth!
"Crack...knock..."
With a sickening cracking sound of bones breaking, a complete, indescribable, twisted monster, composed of pure darkness and malice, was forcibly squeezed out of its father's mouth and born into this world!
Meanwhile, Kotaro Sawamura's withered body, drained of all its life force, fell helplessly from mid-air like a rag doll.
The newly born monster, a fusion of evil spirits and demons, slowly turned its "head," which had no facial features but a huge mouth that opened and closed constantly, dripping with black saliva.
Its dozens of blood-red eyes, covering its entire body, simultaneously locked onto the three living beings in the room, exuding an enticing "delicious" aroma...
"..."
Eriri and Sayuri were already too terrified to speak. Their bodies trembled uncontrollably from instinctive fear, and they could only cling tightly to Gu Chuan's back, seeking his only, final refuge.
95 The End of Sins and the Black Thunder
The twisted monster, composed of pure darkness and malice, after its complete birth, its spider-like limbs and claws pierced the floor, supporting its shapeless, writhing, enormous body, causing substantial physical interference to the real world for the first time!
It slowly raised its "head," which had no facial features, only a huge mouth that opened and closed constantly, dripping with black saliva.
Immediately afterwards, above that gigantic maw, countless fleshy buds began to writhe and intertwine wildly, slowly coalescing into a... vaguely recognizable human face!
That face was twisted in pain, filled with endless resentment and bitterness.
However, both Eriri and Sayuri were struck by lightning and completely petrified the moment they saw that face!
"Aki...Tomoya?!"
Sayuri gasped in shock, her face filled with incomprehensible horror: "847."
Eriri, upon seeing that face clearly, completely broke down in emotions that she had just barely managed to calm down!
"—No...no...why...why is it you?!"
She let out a cry more piercing and desperate than ever before. She couldn't accept that her childhood sweetheart, who had shared the same dream, who had been betrayed by her, and who had ultimately died because of her, would reappear before her in such a... monstrous form!
This immense shock, a mixture of guilt, fear, and grief, nearly tore her soul apart!
"——Eiri Riri!!!!!"
That distorted face belonging to Aki Tomoya let out a roar that was inhuman, filled with madness and vengeful pleasure!
"Are you happy to see how I am now?! Are you satisfied?!"
Its dozens of blood-red eyes, covering its entire body, were all fixed on the blonde girl who had already collapsed to the ground crying!
"—It's all because of you! It's all because of you and that man! That's why I died! That's why I've become this wretched thing!"
"Roar--!"
With an angry roar, it swung one of its black claws, which was as sharp as a blade, with a sudden swing!
"boom--!"
The huge, expensive refrigerator next to it was smashed to pieces in an instant, as if it were made of paper! Broken metal parts, mixed with ice and food, were scattered all over the floor.
"But things are different now!"
The monster Aki Tomoya felt the unprecedented, destructive power within him and let out a morbid and maniacal laugh.
"I have now... been reborn! And I have gained... the power to take revenge on all of you!"
"I'm going to kill you all! I'm going to make you all a part of me! Forever...with me!"
Its twisted body swelled up again, and terrifying malice swept through the entire room like a tidal wave.
However, faced with this declaration of revenge filled with hatred and terror, and its destructive power that could be described as monstrous, Gu Chuan showed no fear whatsoever.
He even took the initiative to release Eriri, who was trembling in his arms, and stepped forward, revealing a smile full of contempt and mockery on his face.
"Is this what you call ability?"
He looked at the menacing monster before him, a fusion of evil spirits and demons, shook his head, and spoke with undisguised disappointment.
"How pathetic, Aki Tomoya. Even in death, he resembles a clown more than when he was alive."
Having said that, he didn't look at the monster again.
He simply raised his hand casually.
He snapped his fingers crisply.
"—Water Dirty Thunder."
That moment.
There was no light, no heat, and no shockwave.
Only streaks of jet-black, pulsating "black lightning," like living venomous snakes, appeared out of thin air without warning!
In an instant, they tightly bound and sealed the massive body of the monster Aki Tomoya! No matter how it struggled or roared, it could not shake the seemingly slender black lightning that actually contained the power of laws in the slightest!
In the end, all the black lightning coalesced into dark chains, binding it firmly in place, leaving only the head of "Aki Tomoya," filled with terror and resentment, still able to move.
“How…is this possible…” Monster Aki Tomoya looked at his completely sealed, immobile body, and for the first time, his blood-red eyes revealed a despair that was even deeper than death itself.
Gu Chuan slowly walked up to it, looking down at the pitiful face that was still howling in defiance, and announced its final fate in a detached tone, as if dealing with roadside trash.
"Now, this is none of your business."
"Let's go back."
The words fell.
He snapped his fingers again.
"boom--!!!!!"
The black lightning that had been wrapped around the monster suddenly erupted in an instant!
"--No!!!!!"
In the final, mournful howl of the monster An 6 Yi Yi (Part 2) Shi Ba Yi Lun Ye, filled with resentment and despair, its enormous body, formed from the fusion of sin and malice, along with its soul and its obsession, was completely and utterly blasted to dust in the pulsating black lightning!
The dust has settled.
The room fell into a deathly silence.
Eriri and Sayuri stared blankly at the scene before them, at the boy who had wiped out the terrifying monster with just a flick of his finger. Their minds, overwhelmed by the extraordinary and illogical impact of the boy's actions, had completely ceased to function.
After the fear, what surged up was an even stronger curiosity and... awe.
With the monster's death, the withered shell of Kotaro Sawamura, drained of all its life force, finally fell helplessly from mid-air with a muffled "bang".
Lily was the first to come to her senses. She staggered to her husband's body, reached out her slightly trembling hand, and checked his breath.
Then, she slowly and silently shook her head at Gu Chuan and Ying Lili.
died.
Eriri stared at the familiar yet utterly unfamiliar corpse, her blue eyes, already red and swollen from crying, filled with a bewildered expression.
She didn't know whether she should feel sadness or... relief at this moment. Her feelings for this nominal "father" were far too complicated.
After the initial sadness, Xiaobaihe's face revealed a calm that was full of weariness and helplessness, befitting an adult.
She calmly accepted the outcome.
But then, a more real and troublesome problem confronted her.
A high-ranking, serving foreign minister died "unexpectedly" in his own home...
The trouble that follows will likely be far more difficult than dealing with a monster.
She took out her phone, took a deep breath, and prepared to dial the number she least wanted to dial—a number that represented "order" and "rules."
"Hello, is this the police? I want to report a crime..."
96 Aftermath and the Girl Moving to a New Home
The tragedy of the Sawamura family came to a clean and decisive end in the face of Gu Chuan's extraordinary power.
But the troubles in the real world have only just begun.
The death of a high-ranking foreign minister in his own home is no small matter. After Sayuri called the police with trembling hands, the piercing sirens soon echoed throughout the upscale residential area.
However, what happened next completely exceeded Xiaobaihe's expectations.
When questioned by the police, she simply followed Gu Chuan's prior instructions and attributed everything to the "unknown." Gu Chuan, on the other hand, merely made a phone call.
