It's not too much to say that a beauty is a little bit stronger

Qi Ye stared at Lu Yuanshi and Xiao Huai coldly, with no expression on his face.

At this moment, his murderous intent was as cold as ice, and his usual playfulness had completely faded away. His eyes were filled with endless coldness and grimness.

Qi Ye has completely different attitudes towards Lu Yuanshi and Xiao Huai.

When facing Lu Yuan, his murderous intent was not concealed at all, and was cautious yet violent.

He narrowed his eyes slightly, and a black rune flashed in his pupils. Then he smiled softly, with a hint of arrogance in his sneer.

Immediately afterwards, a large amount of black air poured into his body like maggots attached to his bones, and his strength was rapidly expanding again.

When he tilted his head to look at Lu Yuan, his tone was filled with mocking excitement: "Wow, that's really cool."

After saying this, he looked up into the darkness and said, "Great Lord Chaos God, you must think clearly. If you help him, I'm afraid your future will be filled with only eternal darkness."

Lu Yuanshi glanced at Qi Ye and said lightly:

"It doesn't matter."

His tone was calm, as if he didn't care about what was about to happen.

Xiao Huai vaguely felt something was wrong at this moment, but everything happened too suddenly.

Before he could react, Lu Yuanshi's figure had turned into a phantom and appeared around Qi Ye in an instant.

The moment the black gas approached Lu Yuanshi, it stopped expanding and quickly enveloped the two of them as if summoned.

No one can see what's inside.

As Lu Yuanshi left, Xiao Huai rushed directly towards the black fog without any hesitation.

But... no matter how hard he tried, the thick fog formed by the black air was like an indestructible barrier, keeping him out and showing no signs of being broken.

Cold sweat broke out on Xiao Huai's forehead and his breathing became a little rapid.

On this outer barrier, he felt not only Qi Ye's barrier, but also another familiar and cold force, that was - Lu Yuanshi's barrier.

Xiao Huai was stunned for a moment, then suddenly understood.

Qi Ye's barrier is to prevent people inside from leaving, while Lu Yuanshi's... is to prevent people outside from coming in.

He wanted to leave the outcome of this battle to just the two of them.

He released the red diamond again and again, trying to shatter the barrier.

But who gave him this power?

The corners of Xiao Huai's eyes began to turn red. The red diamond collided again and again, but it was useless and no cracks appeared. The power of the everlasting rose belonged to Lu Yuanshi. If Lu Yuanshi didn't want him to come in, he might really not be able to enter.

No, he didn't want this ending.

Xiao Huai stopped Hong Zuan's attack and tried various methods, but all failed.

In the end, he even smashed the barrier with his fists, tearing the flesh on his hands and bleeding profusely until they were bloody and distorted, but he still couldn't shake it at all.

At this moment, the JOKER members seemed to have noticed something. They looked at each other with fear in their eyes. A wisteria flower pattern appeared on the palm of each of their hands, and they were all in disbelief.

The wisteria means that they will go back automatically, but it also represents that person... has failed.

Qi Ye, lost.

This is accompanied by the system prompt sound.

"Emergency Notice: The priest has died! Survivor players will be deemed to have completed the game and will be returned to the player standby world."

A window popped up on Xiao Huai's system interface.

Xiao Huai ignored the system's prompt sound at all. He did not stop what he was doing until the system prompt sound ended.

At this moment, the black air gradually dissipated, and Xiao Huai only saw a ray of white light, and Qi Ye, who was half-kneeling on the ground and had completely turned into a bloody man.

Qi Ye closed his eyes, with a smile that was almost sarcastic.

But he couldn't utter a word.

Xiao Huai didn't even look at Qi Ye. His eyes were fixed on the white light that was about to disappear. He reached out to grab it, but could only watch in vain as it slipped away from his fingertips bit by bit.

At this moment, it felt like a heavy rock was pressing down on my heart, making it hard to breathe.

Sudden--

A beam of light flashed, the girl's golden hair swayed, she leaped into the sky, her arms tightly hugging something, as if she was trying her best to save something.

Xiao Huai opened his eyes wide, and the leaping figure was reflected in his pupils.

Lisha turned around and looked at Xiao Huai, with a smile on her lips: "Xiao Huai, look, the God has arrived."

Xiao Huai looked down at his arms and saw that the notebook he had been using to record his novels was emitting a soft golden light. The light seemed to have some guiding power and was vibrating gently.

He ran his fingertips across the familiar notebook cover.

The notebook's light grew brighter and brighter, and golden light spread in the air, like a net woven from countless tiny golden threads, connecting him to the world.

Xiao Huai took a deep breath and opened the notebook. Golden words appeared on the title page:

"Please write the final conclusion of your novel. We will give you a prop that best suits your current situation based on the conclusion."

He knew that this might be his last chance, and everything before him depended on him at this moment.

Xiao Huai gripped the pen tightly, and his hand, which was originally trembling slightly due to the injury, suddenly became unusually steady. He placed the tip of the pen on the paper and began to slowly write the last words.

Every time I wrote a word, the pen would dig into my flesh and it was very painful.

But he didn't care. He just wrote down word by word firmly. Blood dripped from his fingertips and dyed the paper red.

Blood red and gold intertwined together, as if writing down his soul and destiny.

Time froze at this moment, and the world became quiet and silent again, leaving only the faint sound of the friction between pen and paper.

As the last word was written, the notebook suddenly rose into the air, and the golden light was like a scorching sun, instantly illuminating the entire earth.

The light disappeared quickly, as if it had never appeared, but in Xiao Huai's palm, a broken green lamp quietly appeared.

The lamp body is octagonal and made of dark bronze. Although the surface is covered with clear cracks, a faint blue flame is always swaying in the wick.

The tenacity remains.

There were some blurry ancient characters engraved on the lamp handle. Xiao Huai had never seen these characters before, but the moment he saw them.

He just read out its name.

Ever bright.

At the same time, the system pops up a prop prompt window.

【Eternal Lamp】：

Item Description: System-level item, stores any form of souls scattered around, including souls and spiritual consciousness, to help lost souls find their way home.

The flame in the lamp is like an everlasting light that never goes out.

[Note: As long as it has not completely dissipated, it can always find its way back.]

The white light that Lisa grasped with all her might quietly merged into the eternal lamp at that moment. The lamp flickered slightly, and the light became brighter.
