This Character is Suspected of Cheating! [Unlimited Flow]

When Zhen Xing entered the transfer station, Wanrenzhan and Eugene were already sitting in the front row, staring fixedly at He Yu's livestream while cursing nonstop.

A vacuum had formed around them. Everyone stayed far away from the two "irritable experts," afraid of becoming targets for their anger. Yet despite not daring to approach, they still gathered in a loose semicircle behind them, looking up at He Yu's screen.

Among all the livestreams, He Yu's had the largest crowd.

When Zhen Xing entered holding his axe, someone noticed him and automatically made way. Those who didn't notice were still discussing among themselves, and as he passed, he clearly heard—

"That's He Yu. Number one in popularity."

"Every time I enter the transfer station, his screen is always the biggest. There must be tons of viewers camping outside his stream. This guy used to be nobody, then suddenly popped out of nowhere."

"Really makes people jealous."

"Exactly. His popularity is even higher than Zhen Xing and the others."

"Popularity isn't the same as fan support. Fan support is more important. Only fan support brings advancement votes."

"With popularity this high, his fan support shouldn't be low either, right? Sigh, if I could meet He Yu and kill him, I'd definitely gain a lot of audience support..."

"What fantasy are you living in? Eugene and Zhen Xing couldn't kill He Yu and got played around like fools. You think you can kill him? Impossible."

"True enough..."

...

Zhen Xing ignored all of it and walked straight to Eugene and Wanrenzhan.

The two were still cursing—

"Damn it, the more I think about it, the angrier I get. He Yu went too far. What happened to our cooperation?"

"...Wasn't it us who planned to scheme against him first?"

"I don't care, I'm pissed! He's too ruthless. Five hundred thousand votes!! My hard-earned five hundred thousand votes!!"

"That guy has a hundred and eighty tricks up his sleeve. Who the hell enters a dungeon and hangs a mirror above his head first thing?"

"Why does such bizarre equipment exist? How can it turn into a mirror? That's practically a system bug."

"He Yu himself is a bug!"

"I'm so pissed. He still has nineteen hours left. Nineteen hours!!"

"What a bastard."

"Not even human!"

"Animal!"

"Beast!"

...

After cursing for quite a while, Eugene sneered.

"Li is impossible to defeat. He Yu may have gained nineteen hours, but he'll still have to spend votes to leave. I'm waiting to see whether he comes out alive."

Wanrenzhan ground his teeth.

"When he comes out, I'll definitely—"

Zhen Xing asked, "You'll definitely what?"

Wanrenzhan: "..."

What could he do? Kill him?

The votes he used to leave this time had even been begged from the audience by He Yu...

His face turned red. After a long while, he finally said,

"In the next instance, I'll definitely kill him!"

Zhen Xing looked surprised.

"Huh? You actually still want to enter the same instance as him?"

Wanrenzhan froze.

"You don't?"

Zhen Xing replied immediately.

"No."

An expressionless Eugene said,

"No."

Duan Yuchen, who had just arrived, said,

"No."

Siya said,

"No."

Zhante said,

"No."

Too many tricks. Even more backup plans.

None of them could outscheme him.

Better stay far away.

Wanrenzhan: "???"

He stared in disbelief.

"So your Avengers Alliance isn't taking revenge anymore?!"

Duan Yuchen thought about it and said seriously,

"Of course I want He Yu dead. But after so many instances, I feel... the difficulty is a bit too high. So I'd rather he die in an instance without me in it. Hopefully some great expert punishes him."

Last instance, they already thought He Yu's brain was monstrous.

This instance had refreshed their worldview again.

His brain was even more monstrous than monsters.

—Damn it, was he really still human?

Don't misunderstand.

They weren't insulting him.

It was a very objective question.

Siya nodded.

"I declare the Avengers Alliance disbanded."

The Avengers Alliance, which had survived only one instance, was honorably dissolved.

Not only had they failed to get revenge, they had even lost several members.

A tragic ending.

By now, they had clearly realized—

There truly was no need to enter the same battlefield as He Yu.

Seriously.

It was too miserable.

Being his teammate or his enemy was equally miserable.

—The entire time, you got played like an idiot. Either already inside his trap, or on the way into his trap.

Eugene scratched his head.

"We already completed this instance's mission, but we still can't leave. Something's obviously wrong. Who knows when <Top Talent Show> is going to give us an explanation."

The instance had problems. Why should they be the ones paying the price?

Eugene was qualified to make trouble.

As for whether the organizers would respond, that was another matter.

Duan Yuchen analyzed calmly.

"They should explain. Completing the instance but being unable to leave is clearly a system bug. It's not the contestants' fault. The program should compensate you."

Someone nearby weakly interrupted,

"Not necessarily. If He Yu succeeds in clearing it, then you won't get compensation. You merely entered an instance with higher difficulty."

If nobody could leave after completing the mission, then it was an unsolvable system bug, and the organizers indeed owed Eugene's group an explanation.

But if He Yu advanced by successfully clearing the stage, then it wasn't an unsolvable bug. It was simply a higher-difficulty instance.

Logically, the organizers wouldn't owe compensation.

"How is that possible? How could he clear it?"

The voice answered matter-of-factly—

"Kill Li."

The tone was so natural, as if there was no room for doubt.

As if He Yu would definitely accomplish it.

Duan Yuchen suddenly turned around.

After staring for quite a while, he exclaimed in shock,

"Ling Buchen?! When did you get here?!"

Ling Buchen grinned foolishly.

"I've been here the whole time."

Everyone: "???"

Why had none of them noticed him?

However, Ling Buchen was practically invisible in their eyes, so after a moment of shock, nobody paid attention to him anymore.

Eugene sneered.

"Don't joke around. No matter how amazing He Yu is, he can't beat Li. Li is too strong. Maybe we should hope Li kills him."

Hearing this, Duan Yuchen looked puzzled.

"Then why didn't you kill He Yu before leaving? That was the perfect opportunity."

Eugene exploded.

"There were only a few seconds! How were we supposed to kill him? There wasn't enough time to fight him!"

Duan Yuchen blinked.

"He only has eight combat power. One casual swing of your mechanical arm would've sent him away. Especially Zhen Xing. You still had an hour. Plenty of time to kill He Yu."

—"WHAT?! He Yu only has eight combat power?!"

Zhen Xing and Eugene spoke simultaneously.

Their eyes widened.

Their faces were full of disbelief.

Someone in this competition had single-digit combat power?

And it was He Yu, the number one hot topic?!

For a moment, they wondered if they'd misheard.

Duan Yuchen looked surprised.

"You didn't know?"

The two shook their heads together.

Duan Yuchen asked,

"Didn't Wanrenzhan tell you? Since you wanted to team up to kill He Yu, why didn't you check his combat power?"

Both immediately turned toward Wanrenzhan.

Eugene rushed over and grabbed him.

"He Yu only has eight combat power?!"

Wanrenzhan nodded blankly.

"Yeah. Didn't I tell you?"

The two: "..."

You told us my ass!!

Eugene beat his chest in frustration and nearly collapsed.

"Why didn't you tell me?! I thought he was a damn expert all this time!"

"Wanrenzhan! You idiot!!"

Wanrenzhan: "..."

"Talk all you want, but don't make personal attacks."

Eugene smashed the floor with his mechanical arm in rage.

His entire mental state had collapsed.

He Yu only had eight combat power!

He had missed the best opportunity!

Duan Yuchen suddenly smiled and exchanged a glance with Qiong.

They both saw satisfaction and shared misery in each other's eyes.

Good.

Someone else had finally experienced the pain they suffered in the previous instance.

—Not afraid of godlike enemies, only piglike teammates.

—

Ghost Town.

Nineteen hours remained on the countdown.

Plenty of time.

He Yu slowly entered the room.

Most of the dense Yu Qi inside had already disappeared. Only the person sitting on the bed remained shrouded in Yu Qi, making it impossible to see his appearance beneath the black aura.

He simply sat there.

Even the space around him carried heavy pressure.

The swirling black aura seemed capable of swallowing anyone who approached.

Dangerous to the extreme.

—And indeed dangerous. Zhen Xing and the others, who had been blasted away earlier, had already proven that.

Seeing He Yu enter, the person slightly moved his head.

Beneath the pitch-black Yu Qi, a pair of beautiful aqua-blue eyes looked toward He Yu.

The black aura around him surged uncontrollably, as though it might attack in the next moment.

【Bullet comments: "Damn, he looks so dangerous!"】

【Bullet comments: "But those eyes remind me of my big cat... my cute big cat!"】

He Yu walked over.

【Bullet comments: "He Yu, don't get close! It's dangerous!"】

【Bullet comments: "With his combat power, one lift of Li's hand will kill him! Why is he approaching?!"】

Under the audience's anxiety, He Yu walked right beside Li and stretched out his hand.

Everyone was stunned.

—He Yu actually dared provoke such a terrifying Li?!

His hand reached toward the other's arm.

The instant it got close, the black aura surrounding the figure trembled.

Like flames blown by wind, all the black aura drifted away from He Yu.

As a result, the right side of Ghost Li's body had black flames flying upward, while the left side only had a thin layer clinging to him.

It looked...

Ridiculously cute.

He Yu touched his arm and pushed gently.

"Move over."

Audience: "???"

"He Yu, you're really brave!"

Then they watched—

The ghost wrapped in black aura obediently shifted aside, hands on his knees, sitting upright like an elementary school student.

He looked...

Very honest.

He Yu sat down.

The black aura on the right side shot upward.

Even the left side couldn't help producing black aura, which also drifted to the right.

The originally terrifying aura now looked as if it was being blown sideways by a strong wind.

Despite the fact that they were indoors.

He Yu turned toward him.

"Your name is Li?"

The shadow nodded.

"Can you talk?"

The shadow shifted uneasily.

After a while, a hoarse voice emerged.

"I... should be able to?"

—He had already spoken.

Not "should."

Completely able.

【Bullet comments: "HOLY SHIT, his voice sounds amazing!"】

【Bullet comments: "I thought he'd sound ancient. Why does he sound so young?!"】

Indeed.

It sounded like an eighteen- or nineteen-year-old boy.

Yet beautiful as jade and gold.

Combined with the slight hoarseness from speaking for the first time, it sounded both pure and seductive.

He Yu smiled.

"Your voice is very nice."

BOOM—

The black aura shot upward uncontrollably and slammed into the ceiling.

Crack—

The roof split.

Crack—

The walls split.

Rustle—

Powder fell.

Rumble—

The room began shaking.

The shadow froze.

Even the black aura froze.

He Yu sighed.

"Sigh. Let's go outside."

In an instant, a black shadow wrapped around He Yu and vanished like lightning.

The audience only saw a blur.

The next moment, they were standing on Ghost Town's bustling street.

...Fast.

The shadow landed and instantly released him.

The black aura wrapped tightly around him again, exposing only those beautiful aqua-blue eyes.

They were full of panic.

He Yu looked at him.

The shadow froze and shifted his gaze away, not daring to meet He Yu's eyes.

"Want to walk around together? You lived in Ghost Town three hundred years ago. Don't you want to see what your old home has become?"

The shadow nodded.

He hurriedly started walking.

Straight toward a wall.

He Yu grabbed him helplessly.

"Wrong direction. This way."

The shadow froze.

The black aura exploded upward—

Then, remembering what had happened earlier, he hurriedly forced it back, keeping it around himself while it swayed wildly.

【Bullet comments: "...Am I crazy? I feel like he's shy?"】

【Bullet comments: "...Am I crazy? I think I can ship this."】

【Bullet comments: "SHIP THEM!! They're both blue-eyed anyway! I don't care! I'm treating him like the big cat!"】

He Yu had already started walking.

The shadow paused before hurriedly following.

He wanted to approach, yet didn't dare.

His steps were clumsy.

He Yu took one step.

The shadow took one step.

Trying to maintain half a step's distance.

Suddenly, He Yu stopped.

The shadow slammed on the brakes and almost crashed into him.

His black aura shot upward in fright, and he quickly retreated several steps.

He Yu pointed beside him.

"Let's walk side by side."

The shadow froze.

Then obediently nodded and carefully moved beside him.

His movements were stiff.

He Yu raised his foot.

The shadow stiffly raised his.

As they walked, the stiffness gradually disappeared.

His steps became lighter.

He carefully matched every one of He Yu's footsteps.

If He Yu's step was shorter, he immediately withdrew his own foot to land on exactly the same line.

The farther they walked, the happier his pace became.

The black aura drifted behind him.

Higher and higher.

Swaying left and right.

Joyfully.

A stone occupied the spot where his next step should land.

The shadow paused.

Then he swiftly kicked it away and stepped down.

The stone shot across the sky and disappeared over Ghost Town.

—

He Yu was genuinely taking him shopping.

Sometimes he even stopped to look at things.

At that moment, he picked up a piece of local clothing and held it against himself.

"Does this look good?"

The shadow nodded vigorously.

He Yu looked at it and put it down.

"No."

Ghost Li pointed at the clothes, then pointed at He Yu.

"Looks... good."

He Yu smiled.

"It does. But not as good as what I'm wearing."

He wore a sweater underneath and a fluffy Frost Beast coat outside.

His black hair, black eyes, and pale skin made him look even more beautiful.

Cold and refined like jade.

His smile was like snow melting.

The shadow paused, then chased after him.

The black aura drifted happily behind him.

—Though he didn't know why, he was happy.

After walking a while longer, He Yu suddenly stopped.

His eyes fixed on the accessories at a stall.

Something complicated flashed through his gaze.

The owner hurried over.

"Customer, what would you like?"

The NPCs of this world selectively ignored Ghost Li and saw only He Yu.

He Yu slowly picked up a brooch from the pile.

It was a flower, crystal-clear and brilliant under the sunlight.

"What excellent taste! This was made by a master. It's based on a rare medicinal ingredient and—"

"How much?"

"Five hundred."

He Yu dumped out a pile of trinkets from his backpack.

Defensive paper.

Protective items.

All sorts of Ghost Town specialties.

Not worth much individually, but together they totaled several thousand.

—All purchased by Louis earlier.

—And all useless outside Ghost Town.

"Willing to trade?"

The owner beamed.

"Absolutely!"

Huge profit.

He Yu fastened the brooch.

Sunlight fell on his face.

His long eyelashes cast shadows.

The shadow watched him in confusion.

After a while, he couldn't help asking,

"What is that?"

He Yu adjusted the brooch and softly answered,

"An Ice Flower. It grows in lands of extreme cold. It's the favorite food of Frost Beasts."

Ghost Li didn't know what Ice Flowers were.

Nor what Frost Beasts were.

He nodded blankly.

"Oh."

He Yu smiled.

"Let's continue."

The shadow immediately followed.

One white.

One black.

Two tall figures stretched across Ghost Town's stone streets under the setting sun.

Their shadows gradually grew longer.

-

Night fell.

With no other ghosts left in Ghost Town and all the black aura gathered onto a single person, the sky that had not seen stars for years was now filled with countless stars, breathtakingly beautiful.

He Yu sat on the roof while the shadow stood beside him.

After a while, He Yu patted the space next to him.

"Sit down. Why are you standing?"

Li obediently sat down. There was only a palm's width between them. His hands rested on his knees, his body tense and motionless, sitting honestly and obediently.

The drifting black aura covered his body, but from his posture alone, one could imagine the well-behaved expression on his face.

Looking at the sky, He Yu asked,

"Why don't you attack me?"

Li shook his head.

"I don't know."

After a pause, his voice became very soft.

"I like you very much."

He Yu smiled.

The smile was dazzling.

The shadow stared blankly at him.

He Yu turned to look back at him.

"Are the stars beautiful tonight?"

The shadow nodded, then shook his head. Still staring intently at him, he answered very seriously,

"Your eyes are prettier."

【Bullet comments: "Holy shit! This guy has game."】

【Bullet comments: "The last one who flirted this naturally was that big cat who gave flowers!!"】

He Yu smiled again and turned back toward the sky.

Beside him, the shadow moved.

He suddenly extended a hand.

Wrapped in black aura, it was impossible to see clearly, but it vaguely seemed like he was holding something.

His voice trembled slightly, nervous.

"For you."

Curiously, He Yu looked over and stretched out both hands.

"What is it?"

The shadow carefully placed the object into his palms.

Perhaps the black aura touched He Yu's warm skin. Like someone shocked by electricity, he instantly withdrew his hand, the black aura trembling chaotically.

Several beautiful Ice Flower brooches and hairpins rested in He Yu's palm.

He Yu froze.

Li stammered,

"O-Only these..."

Looking at the Ice Flower accessories, He Yu asked curiously,

"Where did you get them?"

Li stuttered,

"I-I took them from the stalls."

In reality, he had sent out countless shadows, searching almost every stall in the town.

These were all he could find.

He was afraid He Yu would be disappointed.

He Yu tilted his head and laughed.

"So you stole gifts for me."

Li tilted his head innocently, utterly confused.

He Yu had no intention of teaching him the difference between taking and stealing.

Closing his hand around the accessories, he nodded.

"Okay. I'll accept them. Thank you."

Whoosh—

The black aura exploded wildly.

To the right, upward—

Anywhere except toward He Yu's left side.

The black aura floated high into the sky and swayed excitedly.

"Li, tell me your story."

The shadow kept staring at him.

Hearing the request, he blinked his blue eyes blankly, seeming unable to understand.

Only after a long while did he obediently reply,

"I-I don't remember very clearly. I think I always lived here. I wasn't very happy. They hit me. E-even though I don't know why..."

He Yu listened attentively.

As Li continued, his words became smoother.

It seemed his memories had fully returned.

Looking at He Yu, his eyes pure and earnest, he said,

"I remember being very uncomfortable. Yu, the grass on the ground doesn't taste good. Don't eat it."

He didn't know why he had eaten it.

He only remembered that it tasted bitter.

He disliked that taste.

And he didn't want He Yu to experience it.

He Yu nodded.

"Okay. I won't."

Li seemed to smile. His voice became lighter.

"I remember there was a jujube tree on the mountain behind. The fruit was still green, but when it turns red, it'll be really delicious. Very sweet. One day, I'll take you to eat sweet jujubes."

Before his death, he had been waiting for those fruits to ripen.

They had almost turned red.

But not quite.

And then he died.

Even now, they were still green.

He could wait.

Of course—

He had to wait together with He Yu.

He Yu smiled.

"Okay."

Li continued. His voice gradually sank.

"Later... they wanted to eat me. It was noisy. And painful..."

"Then I became like this."

"I thought I wouldn't suffer anymore, but Kan... Louis appeared, and I was still in pain."

"The black aura is like my flesh. Every time it's torn apart, it hurts terribly."

"And I couldn't move. Couldn't speak. There was only endless pain and darkness."

"I sent out my eyes and fell asleep, hoping one day I could save myself. But after they left, they seemed to forget where they came from."

Li smiled bitterly.

"So I never waited for them to return. I thought they would never come back."

His world had already been small.

Without his eyes, he couldn't even see the tiny cave around him.

A hundred years.

Very, very long.

Looking at He Yu with utmost sincerity, he said,

"But I waited for you."

"You brought them back."

"You woke me up."

"You put your aura into my body and guided it to flow, letting me recover and become stronger."

He Yu shook his head.

"No. You were already strong."

Li asked,

"What about you? Where do you come from?"

He Yu looked at the stars.

His voice was light.

"As for me... I come from a beautiful planet. I came to seek new breakthroughs, see new worlds, and experience a new life."

Li sat up straight.

His voice became anxious.

"Then... will you leave?"

He Yu looked at the stars and said nothing.

Li's eyes dimmed.

He lowered his head.

Silence settled.

After a long time, Li finally gathered his courage.

Looking at He Yu, he asked,

"Then can you stay—"

His voice stopped abruptly.

Because He Yu's head tilted.

He had fallen asleep against Li's shoulder.

His breathing was long and steady.

The rimless glasses had been placed on his knees.

Under the night sky, his delicate features were breathtaking.

Without his glasses and with his eyes closed, his pale skin and refined features made him look weak and fragile.

Gone was the overwhelming aura he usually radiated.

Li froze.

After a long time, he carefully turned his head.

One glance.

Another glance.

And then he simply stared openly without blinking.

The black aura shot high into the sky.

His mood was obviously excellent.

His body remained stiff and motionless, but the black aura swayed wildly.

Later, it gently descended and covered He Yu.

The black aura was part of him.

Covering He Yu softly felt like—

Holding him softly.

—His aqua-blue eyes narrowed with joy, smiling like a cat that had stolen cream.

—

Six in the morning.

He Yu opened his eyes.

Beside him, the pair of aqua-blue eyes that had watched him without blinking immediately shifted away.

They even closed, pretending to be asleep.

He Yu stretched his neck and sat up, amusement in his voice.

"Stop pretending. You've been watching me all night. Don't think I didn't know."

Li: "!!!"

The black aura surged and wrapped him up completely.

Even his eyes disappeared.

He became a ball, curled up.

【Bullet comments: "HAHAHAHA he's definitely shy!!"】

【Bullet comments: "Damn, this ship gets better and better!"】

He Yu smiled.

"Can you let me see what you look like?"

The ball remained motionless.

"Really not going to show me?"

His voice sounded disappointed.

Almost sad.

Li immediately sat up.

"I'll show you!"

He Yu smiled and looked at him curiously.

Li sat up straight and carefully spread the black aura, slowly enveloping He Yu...

The audience exploded.

"Finally!"

"We'll see his face!!"

Then—

Darkness.

Not a black screen.

Something simply blocked the view.

Only faint sounds remained.

Inside the darkness, He Yu's voice sounded.

"I've seen it."

Audience: "???"

"Damn it! This isn't turning off the lights and getting under the blankets! Why can't we see?!"

"Even He Yu's perspective is blocked?! So only He Yu gets to see?! We want to see too!"

Before him was a face flushed with embarrassment.

His eyes lowered shyly.

His pale cheeks carried a faint blush.

He Yu was genuinely amazed.

"You're very handsome."

He truly was.

A completely different kind of beauty from He Yu.

His skin possessed the pale color of a vampire.

Unlike He Yu's refined elegance, his features were deep and sharply defined.

High nose.

Strong contours.

As though carved with a blade.

Most importantly—

Two dragon horns grew from his head.

They gave his already handsome appearance a wild and captivating charm.

He Yu had imagined that someone with such beautiful aqua-blue eyes must be handsome.

He was not disappointed.

Rather—

He was amazed.

—And He Yu liked this kind of appearance very much.

After hearing the praise, Li's black horns trembled.

Then he hurriedly wrapped himself in black aura again.

Thus, when the audience regained their vision, they only saw a smiling He Yu and Li wrapped up tightly once more.

Audience: "..."

"So what? Practicing husband virtue? The face is for the wife only?"

"He Yu said he's handsome! What does he look like?! Show us!"

But neither Li nor He Yu could hear their cries.

Li remained wrapped up.

Looking at him, the smile slowly faded from He Yu's lips.

His voice became soft.

"Time is almost up. I'm afraid I can't go eat sweet jujubes with you."

"I'm leaving."

Li froze.

Then suddenly raised his head.

Shock and fear filled those exposed blue eyes.

Eventually—

Only reluctance remained.

The wildly dancing black aura froze.

Then slowly shrank back.

His voice trembled.

"Leaving?"

After a pause, he carefully asked,

"Where?"

"Can you take me with you?"

Afraid of rejection, he hurriedly added,

"I don't need food. I can protect you. I'm not annoying at all. I can—"

He Yu shook his head.

Looking directly at Li, he said seriously,

"No."

"I can't take you there."

"And you're a variable."

"I have to eliminate you before I can leave."

Li froze.

He stared blankly at He Yu.

Perhaps he couldn't react.

Or perhaps he understood everything.

He was simply stunned.

He Yu slowly put on his rimless glasses.

Extending his right hand, an Ice Flower appeared.

Pure white.

Except this one had been stained red.

Li looked at it.

"So this is an Ice Flower. It's beautiful."

He Yu remained silent.

He leaned forward.

Li's body stiffened.

He Yu gently rested his head on Li's shoulder—

The place where he had slept all night.

Near his ear, He Yu whispered softly,

"Goodbye, Li."

Puchi—

The Ice Flower pierced his heart.

Even for Ghost Li—

The blood flowing from his heart was red.

Slowly, the blood flowed down the Ice Flower and onto He Yu's hand.

He Yu lowered his eyes and stared blankly.

He raised his bloodstained hand before his face.

He could feel the blood gradually turning cold.

Looking at it, he suddenly wanted to know its taste.

So he lightly licked it.

His black eyes revealed no emotion.

His perfect profile was beautiful.

And cold.

Li softly asked,

"What does it taste like?"

He Yu answered,

"Sweet."

Li smiled.

His aqua-blue eyes curved.

"That's good."

As his words fell, his body gradually faded.

Soon, it transformed into countless black stars and disappeared.

The last thing to vanish was his eyes.

His expression could no longer be seen.

Only his curved aqua-blue eyes remained.

As if smiling.

Filled with reluctance and attachment.

—Three hundred years of suffering.

In exchange for a dozen hours of warmth.

—Li wasn't sad.

He was simply unwilling to part.

【Bullet comments: "He Yu! You have no heart!!"】

Universe Federation.

The Keli Hai family.

Keli Hai had died the previous night.

They had been furious.

Some had even proposed attacking Blue Star and ignoring He Yu's threats.

The family head had hesitated.

But now—

He patted his chest in relief.

Thank goodness they hadn't attacked.

This man had no heart.

He was terrifyingly ruthless.

Unless—

He died inside.

Otherwise, once he came out, he would definitely keep his word.

They couldn't guarantee He Yu would die.

After all, everyone who had underestimated him before had been slapped in the face.

Only after He Yu truly died would they dare retaliate.

As the sun rose, the black starlight completely disappeared.

Only He Yu remained sitting alone on the rooftop.

The Frost Beast coat still covered his body.

The bloodstained Ice Flower remained in his hand.

Everything around him faded.

The roof.

The town.

The world.

Even the Ice Flower brooches and hairpins dissolved into starlight.
