After having a baby with my wife in my dream, they all came true.

[You were stunned. You didn't expect Captain Gu Yan to give such an order.]

You ask: "Captain, why?"

[He said, "The rules tell me that cultivation resources come first, but reason tells me that you are more important."]

[“Your ability! Is the dawn of hope!”]

[You shed tears.]

[It turns out that even the pure divine heart cannot understand everyone. 】

[“Xia Tao! Let’s go!”]

[As Gu Yan shouted, Xia Tao ran off into the distance with red eyes.]

【She is still comforting you. 】

[She said: "Xiao Zhuxin, this is the cruelty of the world. Even if the people close to us leave, we cannot stop."]

【“All the separations and deaths are for the reunion at the last moment.”】

【“Yeah,” you understand. 】

【But it won’t stop your sadness. 】

[The other team members have gathered together, and more awakened shadow lives are rushing towards you. ]

[“Deputy Captain, you take Xiao Zhuxin with you, we will follow behind.”]

[“Don’t attack. Keep the power of the World Purifying Spiritual Artifact. The road home is still long.”]

[The members of the Flame Squad all have the courage to face death head-on.]

【"I……"】

[Xia Tao couldn't hold it in any longer and burst into tears like a child.]

[Another female team member laughed, "Seeing the vice-captain's tears makes me regretless in this life."]

[Her smile was full of sadness.]

[You are very sad, your limbs are weak, you are filled with sadness, and your tears can't stop flowing, but your thoughts are firm. ]

【You need to leave here! 】

[A thought flashed through your mind: Are you, who possesses a pure and innocent heart, the most cold-blooded and ruthless one?]

【"Walk!"】

[After a brief hesitation, Xia Tao continues to flee with you. ]

[With the cover of four team members, you finally escaped from the area affected by the 'Gray Circle'.]

[The moment Xia Tao put you down, she suddenly knelt on the ground, tears streaming down her face, she cried in agony, and pounded the ground with her right hand.]

[“Why! Why is this happening?!”]

[“We were only a step away from a great victory. Why did fate play such a trick on us?”]

[Xia Tao and the members of the Flame Squad have been together day and night for more than ten years, fighting side by side countless times, and she can trust them with her back without any hesitation.]

【This is a life-long friendship. 】

【You really want to comfort her, but you don’t know what to say. 】

[After a long time, Xia Tao stopped crying. Her pretty face was covered with tear marks. She was no longer as fiery as before.]

【More of a decadence. 】

[You said: "Sister Xia Tao, I will definitely avenge them."]

[You look up at the black sun in the sky and say firmly: "I will destroy the Lord of Shadows, and everyone's death will not be in vain."]

【Your goal has always been this.】

[During the special training, many monks laughed at you, saying that you were unrealistic and pretentious.]

【"I trust you."】

【Xia Tao forced out a tired smile.】

[This sentence is just her way of comforting you. ]

【"let's go."】

[After adjusting your state, you continue to set out and embark on the road to "return home." ]

[There were seven of us when we came, but now only you and Xia Tao are left.]

[Xia Tao holds your hand, her heart is too confused, with too many emotions, you don't know what she is thinking. ]

[She seemed to have a determination to die.]

[You think to yourself: "Could it be that Sister Xia Tao couldn't bear the blow and wanted to commit suicide?"]

【You always show firmness. 】

[But you are really afraid to leave. It seems that every time you witness sadness, a little bit of it will stay in your heart and will never go away.]

【The way here is very short. 】

[The way back seems to be getting very long. ]

[After a few days, Xia Tao seemed to be in a better mood, but you could still feel her determination to die.]

[She asks you: "Xiao Zhuxin, will you join the Dark Destruction Team again?"]

[You said: "I will always be a member of the Dark Destruction Team. From now on, Sister Xia Tao will be the captain and I will be the vice-captain."]

[In order to comfort her, you acted very energetic, "We will absorb more team members, thrive and grow, and will never let Captain Gu Yan down."]

【"Yeah?"】

[After many days, Xia Tao finally smiled, "Xiao Zhuxin, do you know? In fact, I have experienced this kind of separation three times."]

[“A long time ago, Gu Yan and I just joined the Flame Squad. We were very young at that time.”]

[“I am nineteen years old, Gu Yan is twenty-one years old. He is in the sixth realm of the mortal world, and I am in the early stage of the fifth realm of the mortal world.”]

[She smiled to herself and said, "Perhaps a genius like you cannot understand our practice."]

[“But at that time, I thought I was pretty good.”]

[“During the third operation, our captain at the time also died while trying to cover our escape.”]

【You are stunned. 】

【It turns out there are so many people who violate the rules. 】

[More often than not, it is the strong who protect the weak and escape, rather than the strong who abandon the weak and leave alone. ]

[Xia Tao continued, "After countless explorations, a total of 108 members of the Flame Squad have left."]

[“I don’t know when, Gu Yan and I became the strongest in the team.”]

[“I also changed from a small monk in charge of guarding the team flag to a deputy captain, taking on more responsibilities.”]

[She asks you: "Xiao Zhuxin, do you think the Flame Squad will burn forever?"]

[You nodded firmly, "Yes."]

[You said: "I will work with Sister Xia Tao to shoulder the will of the deceased team members and will never back down."]

[Xia Tao paused, then asked: "What if I can't accompany you? Can you do it alone?"]

[At this moment, you can feel that Xia Tao's determination to die has reached its peak. ]

【You are crying again.】

[You burst into tears and asked, "Sister Xia Tao, why? We have come this far! Why are you leaving?!"]

[Xia Tao was stunned and her eyes widened, "Xiao Zhuxin, can you really read a person's mind?"]

【"Um."】

[You nodded and wiped your tears, "I don't want Sister Xia Tao to leave."]

[“I didn’t leave.”]

[Xia Tao smiled with red eyes: "I will watch you and accompany you in another world."]

[“When you defeat the Lord of Shadows one day and obtain the key to open that world, you can see us again.”]

【As she said this, she hugged you tightly. 】

[Xia Tao has transferred all the power of her world-purifying spiritual weapon to you, giving you the last hope of survival.]

[It turns out that this was her intention to die.]

[The power of the World Purifying Spiritual Artifact has been exhausted, and it is destined that only one person will be able to return alive. ]
