God King's Universal Empathy! Understanding the Sin Mei Carried Alone!

Kiana opened her mouth, but couldn't say anything. Tears silently streamed down her face.

"Bye now."

The Knowledge Law User spoke softly, his body completely transforming into countless fluttering Fenghuang Down.

The black world faded, revealing the original azure sky.

Sunlight streamed in.

The girl, dressed in a white shirt and black pants, with long blue hair, stood there quietly.

She opened her eyes, and her gaze was no longer that of the Arrogant and Confused Knowledge Law User, but rather as deep as an ancient well and as steady as a high mountain... a gentle gaze.

"I'm back, Kiana."

Fu Hua's voice remained calm as always.

"... Class Monitor!"

Kiana could no longer hold back and threw herself into her arms, bursting into tears.

The joy of surviving the ordeal permeated the entire bridge of the Hyperion.

Bronya's lips curled up slightly, Theresa secretly wiped away her tears, and even the usually cold the Doctor. Einstein's eyes softened considerably.

We won.

They finally... brought back their most important partner.

"That's great... that's great..." Xiao Xiao and Tang Ya hugged each other, crying and laughing at the same time.

"Hmph, at least it wasn't a waste of effort." Xu Sanshi said defiantly, but his eyes were a little red.

"These are true partners!" Niu Tian and Tai Tan, two towering men, were also deeply moved.

At this moment, regardless of their stance or status, all viewers felt genuinely happy for this hard-won reunion.

However, this joy did not last long.

When Kiana lifted her head from Fu Hua's embrace and looked around, the joy of their reunion slowly froze on her face.

She searched instinctively.

She was searching for that purple figure she knew best and longed for most.

But no.

Mei... is not here.

Where did she go?

The image seemed to sense her feelings and provided the answer at the right time.

A brief replay.

While they were locked in a fierce battle with the Knowledge Law User, the Lightning Law User Thunder, Lightning Mei, boarded a plane to World Serpent alone.

She agreed to Kevin's conditions and joined the organization whose ideals were completely contrary to those of the main characters.

All for... the knowledge to heal the Honkai Energy erosion within Kiana's body.

The final image freezes on Mei's resolute back and Kiana's face, which has instantly lost all color, filled with confusion and pain.

The immense joy of regaining a close friend and the immense pain of instantly losing a loved one formed an incredibly ironic contrast at this moment.

Kiana's smile froze.

Her body trembled slightly.

She reached out, as if trying to grasp the long-vanished figure, her lips moving but no sound escaping her.

Why...

Didn't we promise to share all the pain together?

Why... why do you want to make this decision alone?

Why... do you have to leave me alone again?

There are no lines.

There was no sound.

Only a silent scene, and those pale blue eyes instantly overwhelmed by endless sorrow.

But this silence is more heartbreaking than any desperate cry.

"..."

The entire Douluo Continent fell into a deathly silence once again.

Shrek Academy, which had just been filled with a joyful atmosphere, was now eerily quiet.

"What... what is this?" He Caitou stammered, his smile more like a grimace. "We just finished a major battle, rescued our comrades, and then... then the other one... just left?"

No one answered him.

Everyone was stunned by the sudden appearance of the enormous knife.

What's this?

The fruits of victory, before they could even be tasted, turned into bitter poison?

"That girl named Mei... did she do this to save Kiana?" Gu Yuena asked softly, her voice trembling slightly.

"It should be," Tang Wulin replied in a deep voice, "She joined a hostile organization, using that as a price to obtain a way to save Kiana."

"Isn't this... sacrificing oneself for one's lover?" Ning Rongrong murmured, her eyes instantly reddening as she recalled Xiao Wu Wu's sacrifice for Tang San.

"But... but..."

However, this is different from a sacrifice!

Xiao Wu's sacrifice was a tragic act born of necessity.

Mei's departure, however, was a betrayal—a choice she made herself, a departure without saying goodbye.

At least, that's how Kiana sees it.

"Why would she do that? Aren't they partners? Can't they discuss things together and face them together?" Xiao Xiao couldn't understand and stomped her feet in anger.

"Because she loves her so much."

A languid voice rang out; it belonged to the Dragon God of the Divine Realm. This former Supreme God King stared at the screen with an extremely complex expression.

"Because she loved so deeply, she couldn't bear to watch the other person slowly wither away before her eyes. She would rather bear all the guilt and infamy herself, and be hated by the other person, just to give the other person a chance to live."

The Dragon God's words silenced all the god- Royal Capital present.

Because, to varying degrees, they all saw a reflection of themselves in Mei.

In order to protect their loved ones, they have all made similar decisions that were not understood.

"Madness..."

After a long silence, Sea God Tang San uttered two words.

"This was indeed... the most foolish, yet also the gentlest decision."

As he spoke, he subconsciously tightened his grip on Xiao Wu's hand beside him. He could understand Mei's choice, but he would never agree with it.

Because he knew all too well how cruel torture it was for the person left behind to leave in the name of "for your own good."

[The Supreme Calamity Inventory System for Myriad Worlds has been activated.]

[Here, you will witness terrifying calamities that transcend Martial Soul, divine Divine Power, and mortal comprehension, as well as glimmers of light that bloom amidst despair.]

[Honkai Universe - The Ninth Herrscher, A Thousand People Descend.]

"Honkai universe? Herrscher?" Tang San frowned, frantically searching his mind for information about these two terms, but to no avail.

A strange light flashed across the pale, handsome face of God of Death A'Dai (Mandun): "Calamity... In this word, I feel a death and annihilation that is even deeper and purer than the underworld."

On the Light Screen, the text gradually faded away, and a chilling scene slowly unfolded.

It was a city brimming with highly advanced technology, with towering steel buildings, neon-lit streets, and aircraft traversing the skies. This civilization, far surpassing that of the Douluo Continent, immediately astonished many people in the lower realms.

Douluo Continent, Shrek Academy.

"My God, is that Soul Tool? No, the craftsmanship and structure are a thousand times more complex than the core technology of the Illustrious Virtue Hall!" He Caitou stared intently at the screen, his rugged face filled with fanaticism and disbelief.
