Godslayer: God of the Sequence, Starting Guide to Conquering Lin Qiye

Chapter 459 I was wrong

Yang Gao's roar was deafening, but Lin Qiye couldn't hear it at all.

His world seemed to be isolated by an invisible barrier, blocking out all sounds from the outside world.

Just then, Shen Qingzhu raised her hand without hesitation, and a silver light suddenly flashed.

The beam of light, like lightning, ripped through the dark night sky, illuminating the entire scene. Everyone present felt a buzzing sound in their ears, as if countless bees were flying around them.

That's the wind swirling at high speed, gathering its strength.

At this moment, the Ghost Face King's forbidden ruin, [Ghost Face Land View], also seemed to be affected. The special environment created by the originally indestructible forbidden ruin actually showed a slight crack.

Although the crack was tiny, it was like an anthill on a dam, making one worry that it might collapse in an instant.

Shen Qingzhu's eyes shimmered with a faint silver light, the silvery-gray specks like stars in the night sky, reflecting the distorted boy in front of her.

In that instant, with a soft "ding," the silver light suddenly exploded.

In an instant, visible silver rays, like sharp slashes, intertwined in the air to form an impenetrable net.

These silver lights, like disco balls flashing in the night sky, shone with a dazzling and mesmerizing light, attracting everyone's attention.

In just a moment, the silver-gray cloak behind Shen Qingzhu resembled an extremely fierce warlord.

With his movements, the silver-gray cloak, like a sharp blade, easily severed the Ghost Face King's [Ghost Face Earth].

With a crisp cracking sound, the mask that Wu Quan was tightly holding around the neck of the Ghost King suddenly split in two.

The mask, having lost its support, fell straight to the ground like a kite with a broken string.

The moment the mask hit the ground, it seemed that not only the mask itself shattered, but also the broken heart of the boy in front of him.

"How dare you..." Wu Quan's body seemed to lose its support, and he collapsed to the ground with a thud. His eyes widened as he stared at the corpse of the Ghost-Faced King, his face full of disbelief.

He couldn't accept this fact; he had originally thought Shen Qingzhu would listen to his explanation.

He still has many powerful and mysterious methods that he hasn't used yet.

For example, the mystery that can only restrict the forbidden ruins; under its restriction, even the most powerful person will become weak and helpless.

However, Shen Qingzhu gave him no chance at all and mercilessly killed Ghost Face King.

A flame of resentment gradually ignited in Wu Quan's eyes, burning like a raging fire deep within his heart.

And this fire is slowly consuming the umbrella hidden in his heart, and the boy holding the umbrella.

The silvery moon hung high in the night sky, its cool light casting long shadows on Shen Qingzhu.

A gentle breeze blew by, and his cloak fluttered in the wind, as if telling the story of the turmoil in his heart.

Shen Qingzhu stood there quietly, like a statue, motionless.

His face was shrouded in shadow, obscuring his expression, but his straight back and clenched fists revealed that he was far from calm.

Seeing this, Lin Qiye felt a little worried. He took a step forward to ask about the situation, but was stopped by An Qingyu.

"This is Shen Qingzhu's own business, it's best if we don't interfere," An Qingyu said softly, lighting a cigarette as she spoke.

The sound of the windproof lighter was particularly crisp in the quiet night, and the sparks flashed and disappeared in the darkness.

Snapped--! !

A crisp slapping sound suddenly rang out.

Yang Gao was startled by the sudden slap; he never expected Shen Qingzhu to act so directly.

Originally, he thought Shen Qingzhu would handle the matter gently, since given her personality, she wouldn't actually hit the child, would she?

Yang Gao's gaze involuntarily fell on Shen Qingzhu, and like Lin Qiye and An Qingyu, who were equally curious, their eyes were filled with disbelief.

Especially Lin Qiye, who had a cigarette in his mouth, suddenly dropped it straight to the ground.

However, before everyone could recover from the shock of the first slap, "Slap—!!" The second slap arrived as expected.

However, this time the slap did not land on Wu Quan's face as everyone expected, but Shen Qingzhu slapped herself hard across the face.

The slap was extremely hard, and a red handprint instantly appeared on Shen Qingzhu's cheek.

But he seemed to feel no pain at all. The bitterness in his heart poured out like a flood when he saw Wu Quan, overwhelming him.

Overwhelmed by this surging emotion, Shen Qingzhu felt self-blame and regret.

He couldn't help but think: I'm always so self-righteous, always thinking that many things can wait.

They always have a one-sided belief that there is plenty of time in the future.

But I forgot that the only constant in the world is change. The so-called "there's plenty of time in the future" actually has another meaning: it leaves only regret.

Shen Qingzhu had not seen Wu Quan for two years. The last time he wanted to go back to see Wu Quan, it was Yang Gao who suggested it.

The thought of Yang Gao filled Shen Qingzhu with even more sorrow. He had so much more to say to Yang Gao, and he kept thinking that Lin Qiye should speak first, then An Qingyu, since they had plenty of time.

His close relationship with Yang Gao is different from Lin Qiye's "brotherly" relationship; it is also different from An Qingyu's "redemption".

Their appreciation was purely platonic, starting with a simple admiration for strength, and later stemming from being captivated by Yang Gao's personal charisma.

That's just how Yang Gao is. As long as you interact with him sincerely, he will treat you with complete sincerity.

*Smack, smack, smack—!*

Shen Qingzhu kept slapping herself until her mouth was full of blood.

Wu Quan was also taken aback by the scene before him.

He had imagined a big fight with Shen Qingzhu, and he had imagined them hugging and crying together, but he never imagined that Shen Qingzhu would hit him.

But Wu Quan could sense that Shen Qingzhu was telling him that he was wrong.

Wu Quan hugged Shen Qingzhu, tears streaming down his face, and said, "Don't do this, Brother Shen, don't do this..."

"I was wrong, it was all my fault. I shouldn't have bullied people, I shouldn't have killed people, I shouldn't have..."

Shen Qingzhu hugged Wu Quan, tears streaming down his face, his heart filled with immense pain.

He said, "I was wrong. I should have gone back to see you sooner instead of just sending you money."

"I should have taken you away from the orphanage sooner..."

"I was wrong, brother was wrong..."

"Wu Quan, I was wrong..."

"Yang Gao, I was wrong."

Yang Gao looked at Shen Qingzhu, who was screaming desperately, and in those piercing cries, he heard his own name...
