Seven Gods Guardian: Gun King Mission

"His body has suffered severe injuries one after another. Even if he had the ability to penetrate heaven and earth, there is no way he could survive such a desperate situation."

After hearing the words of the god, my heart finally settled down a little.

After taking a long breath, I murmured to myself, "That's good. After all this trouble, I finally got rid of all these troubles." After saying that, I shook my head helplessly and let out a heavy sigh.

Not long after, several other people also gathered around, and everyone was preparing to get together to discuss the follow-up matters.

However, at this critical moment, a guard came running over in a hurry and anxiously.

His face was filled with panic, and he gasped for breath while stammering, "Sirs... Sirs, something's wrong..."

Seeing this, the god quickly stepped forward, reached out to support the guard, and asked anxiously, "What happened? Don't worry, explain it to us slowly."

After the soldier had recovered some strength, he slowly opened his mouth and said in a slightly trembling voice, "Sir! Just now, a few people were carrying a corpse in their hands. Then they rode their horses aggressively and recklessly, trying to force their way out of the checkpoint."

"What? There is a corpse? This corpse is most likely that of that extremely hateful demon! These people must be spies of the demon clan lurking here!" Hearing this, he couldn't help but blurt out anxiously.

The Thunder Emperor standing nearby could no longer contain his rage. He demanded with his eyes wide open, "How on earth did you do this? If someone dared to force their way through so brazenly, why didn't you intervene in time to stop them?"

Upon hearing this, the guard trembled with fear and hurriedly explained in a fearful tone, "Lord Thunder Emperor, please calm down! This is what happened. At the beginning, those guys were indeed small in number, only a handful of people. With our manpower and strength at the time, we were fully capable of stopping them. But who could have imagined that at this critical moment, a group of demons suddenly appeared out of nowhere, and without a word, they rushed towards us."

"After we discovered the situation was not good, we responded quickly and immediately engaged in a fierce battle."

"After a desperate fight, we did kill quite a few demons. Unfortunately, the other brothers who were responsible for the defense all met with tragic casualties and died heroically."

"In the end, those guys carrying the corpse still took the opportunity to escape, and I narrowly escaped death. I finally managed to save my life, so I can rush here to report this to the adults!"

When everyone heard the news from the guards, everyone's face was instantly filled with gloom. The originally relaxed atmosphere suddenly became solemn, as if shrouded by a thick layer of dark clouds. At this moment, their faces were extremely ugly.

The god stood among the people, and his majestic face couldn't help but frown.

He lowered his head slightly in thought for a moment, then raised his head and slowly spoke, "Don't panic, everyone! Mo Mei is dead now. In my opinion, the demons don't have the ability to resurrect the dead yet."

As soon as the words fell, the scene became a little quieter, but the uneasiness in everyone's hearts was still difficult to completely eliminate.

At this time, the god continued to shout, "We have been delayed here for too long! There is no time to lose. Everyone should return to your respective territories and begin preparations. I will also rush back to the capital as soon as possible to properly arrange all subsequent matters."

Having said this, the god paused, his eyes sweeping across the room before continuing, "It seems it won't be long before a devastating war between humans and demons erupts. Therefore, we must prepare for it and be on high alert!"

After the god finished speaking, everyone else present nodded in agreement, indicating that they understood his intention.

Then, with the end of this fierce battle, the crowd quickly dispersed like a tide, and set out on their journey home, rushing towards the city they were responsible for guarding.

He first gave orders to his subordinates in an orderly manner, requiring them to clean up the mess after the war.

Then, he turned and walked back home, where Li Ling's body was still lying. Along the way, he felt extremely heavy-hearted, and the thrilling scene from before kept appearing in his mind.

Not long after, I finally returned home.

When I slowly pushed open the familiar and heavy door, a dead silence hit me.

Wherever I looked, I saw Li Ling lying there quietly, as peaceful as if she was sleeping.

However, that lifeless face ruthlessly revealed a cruel fact - she had left this world forever.

Her body still looked intact, but her once vibrant heart had stopped beating and her life force had vanished without a trace.

Looking at the heartbreaking scene in front of me, I felt as if an invisible hand was tightly grasping my heart, and the pain was so severe that I couldn't breathe.

Endless sadness surged like a tide, instantly drowning the entire soul.

Just this morning, I was chatting and laughing with the two of them, sharing little interesting things in each other's lives.

But who could have expected that in just a few hours, everything would turn upside down so drastically.

The unpredictable nature of life is truly unpredictable. Thinking of this, I can’t help but feel a surge of deep emotion: “How unpredictable things are!”

Without time to grieve too much, he suppressed his grief, walked quickly to Li Ling's side, and carefully picked up her gradually cooling body.

Then, he went to the yard, found a relatively flat place, and used a shovel to dig a shallow pit.

After gently placing Li Ling into the pit, they carefully covered her with soil so that she could rest there.

After doing all this, I didn't stay for too long.

He turned back into the house, picked up the Soul-Bewitching Blade, stared at it for a moment, and decided to place it in a hidden corner of the house.

Then, he walked out of the house without hesitation and walked towards the outside of the city with firm steps.

At this moment, what he was concerned about was not only his own survival and safety, but also the fate of the entire city and even the overall security situation on the human border.

He marched forward alone with determined steps, his mind awash with thoughts. He thought to himself, "It's truly unpredictable. When will those damned demons, armed with the human border troops' formation, suddenly launch a fierce attack?"

"If they really brazenly attack, this once bustling and prosperous Huangyun City will undoubtedly be the first to bear the brunt of the impact, instantly becoming the forefront of a fierce and bloody battle."

"By then, countless innocent lives will have been tragically killed in the flames of war, ruthlessly slaughtered!"

Thinking of this, my mood became increasingly heavy and depressed, as if a huge stone weighing a thousand pounds was pressing down on my heart, making it hard to breathe.

Unconsciously, my pace quickened a little.

As in the past, he still persevered in patrolling and inspecting this long and dangerous border area.

During this period, the threat he needed to deal with was not only the aggressive attack from the demons, but more importantly, he had to be on guard against the sudden and crazy offensive launched by the brutal and powerful demon beasts.

Strangely enough, the number of demon attacks has decreased significantly in recent times.
