Honkai: Star Rail: I'm a Big Villain, Starting with the Annihilation of the Astral Express Crew

She crashed heavily to the ground, blood gushing from her mouth, but her eyes remained resolute.

"I... should have bought Luofu some time, right?" These were Feixiao's last thoughts.

Her body gradually grew cold, but her eyes still looked into the distance, as if she saw something.

You looked at the fallen Feixiao, your expression unchanging, and you coldly spat out a few words: "Too weak."

Just as you expected, the Hunt Envoy was simply no match for Destruction.

Soon, a rumble echoed from the distant sky, and a massive Xianzhou fleet arrived, with more Xianzhou generals leading elite Cloud Knights descending upon the Luofu.

But by this time, your purpose had already been achieved.

You didn't linger in the fight, but turned to go deeper into Jianmu—the Stellar Nucleus you had smuggled in earlier was still there.

Jianmu was now incredibly lush, its branches and leaves almost obscuring the sky.

You walked to the core of Jianmu's root system, where a Stellar Nucleus emitting an eerie golden light was intertwined with Jianmu, providing it with a constant stream of energy.

You reached out and pulled hard, forcibly tearing the Stellar Nucleus from Jianmu.

Without the support of the Stellar Nucleus, Jianmu instantly withered, its massive canopy rapidly decaying and turning into rotten wood.

You carefully examined the Stellar Nucleus in your hand for a moment, a look of satisfaction on your face: "So beautiful."

The next second.

You suddenly reached into your own chest with your other hand!

Your body trembled violently, and a look of pain appeared on your face, but your eyes held a kind of morbid enjoyment.

From your chest, you took out the almost transparent sphere with golden light flashing around its edges—this was the Stellar Nucleus within your body!

You smiled.

For thousands of years, the moment for revenge had finally arrived.

With the two Stellar Nuclei in your hands, the power of Destruction overflowed from both, enveloping them.

The two Stellar Nuclei began to draw in power, and then, they began to resonate...

Chapter 44: Another Wipeout for the Astral Express Crew!

You gripped the two Stellar Nuclei in your hands.

White and golden light burst forth from within them!

The surrounding space was like crumpled paper, violently twisting and deforming!

Two cosmic torrents collided violently, emitting a silent roar, the pure power of which was enough to instantly turn anything into nothingness!

This Destruction, centered on you, instantly compressed, and then spread outward like an out-of-control supernova!

Wherever it passed, all matter was erased, leaving no trace.

The Yaoging Xianzhou fleet had just warped near the Luofu when the Cloud Knights saw a blinding white light erupting from the direction of the Luofu in horror.

Then, the white light expanded rapidly, devouring everything in sight.

The Luofu Xianzhou, a giant ship that had sailed the sea of stars for thousands of years, turned to dust in that instant, disappearing into the universe.

A black hole, expanding at an alarming rate, appeared in its original location.

The black hole's suction instantly spread, devouring the approaching meteor streams and the Xianzhou warships that were trying to get closer to provide support.

The Astral Express was mercilessly torn apart by the gravity at the moment the black hole formed, and then completely annihilated in the white light, along with all its members.

The commanders of the surrounding Xianzhou were terrified. They had never seen such a terrifying sight and immediately issued orders to warp away.

However, the destructive shockwave caused by the annihilation of the Stellar Nuclei was even faster!

It caught up with the Xianzhou attempting to escape.

The Xianzhou's shields were like thin paper in the face of the shockwave, instantly shattered.

Destruction swept through the entire ship, and the giant Xianzhou disintegrated, exploded, and turned into countless fragments in the sea of stars.

A cosmic observatory several light-years away recorded the anomaly that occurred in the Luofu's starfield at the same time.

A terrifying light flashed, and then the Luofu's location was replaced by an expanding black hole.

The Luofu Xianzhou, as well as the Yaoging and Zhuming Xianzhou that had come to support it, were completely destroyed in an instant when the disaster struck.

The Xianzhou Alliance's higher-ups received the disaster report and were shocked to learn that three Xianzhou had been destroyed in an instant.

At first, they didn't even know what had happened that caused such a large-scale disaster.

It wasn't until several days later, after analyzing the residual energy, that they determined it was the power of two Stellar Nuclei annihilating each other that instantly destroyed the Luofu Xianzhou's coordinates, the surrounding planets, and everything else, and then formed a giant black hole.

And the culprit behind all of this was undoubtedly the Lord of Ruin—Phantylia!

Single-handedly, she had destroyed nearly half of the Xianzhou Alliance's Xianzhou!

Another wipeout for the Astral Express Crew! Villainy +1000!

Destroyed three Xianzhou! Villainy +1000!

The Path of the Hunt is based on revenge, and the Xianzhou Alliance and the Lord of Ruin are now mortal enemies.

The Xianzhou Marshal vowed that the Hunt's arrow would surely point towards the culprit who brought destruction—Phantylia!

Soon, the Xianzhou Alliance issued a highest-level bounty, seeking you throughout the universe.

However, you, at this moment, were leisurely vacationing on a remote planet, taking the opportunity to destroy it before leaving.

The moment the Luofu was destroyed, your body was naturally the first to be consumed.

However, your Suyang fire would not be extinguished so easily.

The destructive energy of the Stellar Nucleus's explosion and the black hole swallowed everything, including you at the core.

However, your true form—that wisp of Suyang fire—was not completely extinguished; it shrunk to its limit, becoming a faint flame.

This faint flame was captured by the gravity at the edge of the black hole.

Subsequently, it was drawn into a suddenly appearing spatial rift.

The other end of the spatial rift was the "War Furnace" you knew so well.

You entered the War Furnace once again.

Unlike the last time, when you fought to survive, this time, your Suyang fire was unusually compatible with the environment of the Furnace, as if returning to your mother's embrace.

The destructive energy that filled the Furnace not only did not harm you but became the perfect nourishment for the Suyang fire, allowing it to gradually grow stronger.

Deep within the Furnace, a great will descended.

It was the gaze of Nanook, the Destruction Aeon.

Nanook saw the cosmic destruction you had caused on the Luofu, saw your feat of destroying three Xianzhou ships single-handedly.

He was pleased with this pure and thorough destruction and bestowed upon you even greater power.

The Suyang fire pulsed continuously, becoming more solid, terrifying, and far beyond what it had been before.

At this moment, you had surpassed your past self and become the strongest among the Lords of Ruin.

During the process of the Suyang fire's reunion, you sensed a familiar and compatible aura—that of Stelle's body.

Stelle's body seemed to have fused into your Suyang fire, becoming the perfect vessel for you to reshape yourself.

Subsequently, you easily reshaped Stelle's body.

You stood in the depths of the War Furnace, moving this familiar body.

Still in the form of a young woman, with gray hair and golden eyes.

You, in Stelle's guise, descended upon the universe once more.

Age 6420, Star Calendar 8120.

Before long, the Xianzhou Alliance, now only half its former size, launched a final battle against you and the other Lords of Ruin you had gathered.

The Xianzhou, far weaker than before, seemed vulnerable to the joint attack of the Lords of Ruin.

Even with the Hunt's help, shooting out those devastating arrows, the Lords of Ruin, faced with impending death, became even more frenzied!

In the end, the Destruction side traded the deaths of two Lords of Ruin for the Xianzhou's crushing defeat.

Xianzhou ships were destroyed one after another, and despair echoed through the stars.

You stood on the wreckage of a starship, watching the Xianzhou civilization come to an end at your hands.

What welled up in your heart was immense satisfaction, the joy of finally burning away the hatred accumulated over millennia.

Finally, the last Xianzhou ship turned to ashes in the flames of destruction.

The Xianzhou Alliance, this once glorious civilization that had imprisoned you for millennia, had completely disappeared from the universe.

Xianzhou destroyed, revenge successful! Villainy +1000!

From then on, there were no more threats in the universe.

The forces of Destruction swept across the cosmos.

The universe, under Nanook's will, was irresistibly heading towards its end.

You, in Stelle's body, coldly witnessed all of this.

Galaxies collapsed in distortion, time stood still, and space shattered like broken glass.

All life, all civilizations, all existence, were reduced to nothingness by that great power.

In the end, even the Lords of Ruin themselves could not escape the fate of being obliterated.

Your consciousness, in the last moment of the universe's return to chaos, was completely and ruthlessly erased.

Falling into endless darkness.

Who knows how much time has passed.

Perhaps it was just a blink of an eye, perhaps it was billions of years.

Your consciousness gradually awakened.

Sensing that you were in a gentle place, a long-lost peace and warmth surrounded you.

Everything around you seemed so serene.

You slowly open your eyes.

The first thing you see is an unfamiliar room.

You sit up and realize you're lying on a soft bed.

Your body... it's actually the one called "Jiang Mo."

The door is gently pushed open.

A figure walks in.

It's a girl with gray hair and golden eyes.

Her face wears that carefree and pure smile you remember.

"You're awake!" Stelle shouts as she rushes to the bedside, her voice as boisterous as ever.

Her eyes are filled with the unique love and dependence you've seen before, directed solely at you.

You look at Stelle before you.

She's still so scatterbrained, so adorable, just like the days on the Astral Express.

But this time, you can feel the pure emotion in her eyes directed at you.

And within you, a feeling beyond words seems to well up.

You reach out and gently touch Stelle's cheek.

The sensation is so real, carrying a living warmth.

What's going on... Did that Aha guy set me up? Is this a hallucination, or... a dream?

Stelle tilts her head in confusion.
