Zhu Yufeng: Let It All Go!

While the others were playing intensely, Zhu Yufeng and Ying, who had been eliminated, stood aside and chatted.

"Maple, actually I'm really curious, why weren't you and Lilith in your previous life... um, lovers?" Sakura said.

Zhu Yufeng looked at Ying: "Why do you say that?"

Sakura thought for a moment and said, "Lilith... she is very perfect. As far as I know, there seems to be nothing she can't do... and she likes you so much."

"Indeed, but you don't see the whole picture of her." Zhu Yufeng thought for a moment and said, "Maybe it's because after I confessed to Elysia and didn't get a response, I not only let go of my feelings for Elysia, but I also stopped thinking about dating altogether."

More likely, he simply knew Lilith far too well, and Lilith knew him far too well. For them, their romantic relationship was essentially just a formality; they cooperated seamlessly in their daily lives. One of them was only focused on fighting Honkai, while the other simply offered unwavering support...

Looking back now, if they had really ended the Honkai in their previous life, he might have actually considered developing a relationship with Lilith.

After all, he also admitted to Elysia that he had developed feelings for Lilith in the end.

As for his current relationship with Elysia... it's somewhat similar to his relationship with Lilith back then. He understands Elysia's feelings, and Elysia understands his purpose. The two of them maintain this tacit understanding and don't mention anything about taking their relationship further.

As for Vill-V, who knew the inside story and almost got to base, his relationship with Vill-V... should be considered a bit closer.

In short, he didn't even know what he had done to gain so much goodwill from a group of people, and now he had to clean up the mess. His solution was to simply give up.

Let's get started.

He has already accepted the fact that he has become a player, so what else is there that he cannot accept?

Some things are indeed simple once you figure them out. Let him figure out what's coming next; no one's forcing him to make a choice...

Kevin...

Zhu Yufeng then remembered a certain staunch CP leader who said, "Guess how badly Kevin will be beaten by Elysia this time?"

Sakura hesitated for a moment before saying, "As for Elysia, I only know that she is very strong, but I have never seen her fight seriously."

Why did Feng change the subject? Did he know she was going to ask about his current relationship with Elysia? Could it be that his relationship with Elysia has actually surpassed his relationship with Lilith back then?

Sakura doesn't really care what kind of relationship she can develop with Zhu Yufeng, but now that she has the opportunity to spend time with Zhu Yufeng, she can't help but think about some things.

"There seem to be a lot in common between Elysia and Lilith. If I had to say what the differences are..." Sakura thought to herself as she looked down and fell into deep thought.

So boys really do care about the size of their penises? Compared to Elysia, she might indeed be smaller... cough cough, why is she even thinking about this?!

Noticing that Sakura's gaze and expression had become somewhat subtle, Zhu Yufeng followed Sakura's gaze downwards and then looked away.

Did Sakura misunderstand something?

"Speaking of which, how's Ling doing lately?" To prevent Sakura from continuing to think about those random things, Zhu Yufeng decided to change the subject. Yes, he was only now deciding to change the subject; he had only mentioned Kevin briefly before, as he happened to think of him.

Zhu Yufeng's train of thought can sometimes be quite absurd, which often makes people feel that he is changing the subject.

Sakura snapped out of her thoughts and replied, "Ah, she's been doing quite well in the Fire Moth Club lately, um... except she's still a little resentful that you didn't include her in your last game."

"Then I'll take her out for a spin this time," Zhu Yufeng shrugged.

"By the way, Feng, how did you meet Ling?" Sakura remembered something that puzzled her but she never had a chance to ask. "Ling said that once when she was being bullied by some other kids at the Fire Moth base, you stood up for her. But... you're not the type to care about strangers, are you?"

Because she's your sister.

Zhu Yufeng wanted to say that, but in the end he gave up. He also began to recall some memories related to Ling, and then said, "That's because of you. I remember you had a younger sister when I saw her hair and eyes back then. After all, I know you a little bit, so I thought I'd help you out. It wouldn't be a big deal anyway."

"Is it... because of me?" Sakura was somewhat surprised. "But didn't we officially meet during the Ninth Herrscher incident?"

"Oh, that's how it is for you," Zhu Yufeng replied. "Do you remember Kevin's first birthday after becoming Fusion Warrior? At that time, Kevin was still affected by the depression brought about by the Seventh Herrscher Incident and had not fully recovered. Elysia sent an invitation to all the Fusion Warrior, asking us to celebrate a birthday with him. It was around that time that I took notice of everyone present."

After a while, he added, "At that time, I might still have some feelings for Elysia, so... I would pay attention to most of the people she cared about and got close to."

"Is that so..." Sakura seemed thoughtful. She still remembered Kevin's day, but she thought that just as she hadn't paid much attention to Kaede, Kaede hadn't paid much attention to her either. After all, Kaede was standing on the edge of the area and hadn't said much, so it was hard to notice what he was doing.

Sakura then recalled the side effects of Zhu Yufeng's surgery. According to Mobius, he had been suffering from that pain ever since the surgery, and the side effects became more and more severe as he fused with more and more Honkai Beast.

He should have received care and concern from others at that time, but he chose to hide it. Sakura had no idea why he kept pretending to be okay.

She didn't know about the others, but when Mobius exposed this matter, the person who was most devastated was actually Elysia.

At that time, Elysia must have thought about the saka festival she organized for Kevin, right?

He encouraged his friends to get out of their predicament, but he didn't realize that the person he loved was in purgatory.

What's even more outrageous is that her friend is now constantly trying to sabotage her.

Sakura began to feel that if Elysia didn't take this opportunity to beat Kevin up, she would be letting herself down.

"I remember Ling should be studying inside the Fire Moth now, right? Do you want me to go pick her up with you?" Zhu Yufeng said again. Anyway, it's just picking up one person, so he's all set and doesn't care what others say.

"Ah, this... uh, no need, you can pick him up from the family area later." Sakura said, she was starting to worry that if she spent more time with Kaede, she would become dependent on him and start to feel insecure.

"Whatever you want," Zhu Yufeng replied.

On the other side, the battle on Kosma's side also ended. Because Zhu Yufeng had reminded him, Zhu Yufeng had been careless, but Kosma was not. He had only maintained a state of mutual restraint with Hua. When Pardo appeared and prepared to launch a pincer attack with Hua, Kosma decisively made the choice he had made during the Fourth Herrscher incident.

Self-destruct!

He then dragged Hua and Pardo out of the game.

Kevin's situation was rather unfortunate. Elysia was more agile than him, making it difficult for him to reach Elysia, while Elysia was able to hit him. As a result, he was beaten up by Elysia and eliminated.

Elysia beat Kevin to a pulp. jpg
