Recap
Yan Zhao whispered: “I am sincere…” I really like you.
“What is sincerity? Can you dig it out and let me see it?” Rong Yu was unmoved.
Yan Zhao looked at him for a long while and said, “I’m sorry.”
“It was a fallen angel who disturbed the world, not you. The zombie pretending to be Xi Wang was also a fallen angel in disguise. I have killed him. I misunderstood you back then. I’m sorry.”
Rong Yu looked at him: “You owe me more than just an apology.”

Yan Zhao said apologetically, “When we return to the Myriad Gods Realm, you can do whatever you want to me.”
“Since that fallen god has been killed by you,” Rong Yu asked, “why is the mission in this world not completed yet?”
Yan Zhao was stunned, he didn’t expect Rong Yu to still be thinking about the mission.
He quickly replied: “The condition for a happy ending in this world is to make all the zombies disappear. The Child of Destiny can develop a vaccine to turn all zombies back into humans, and only he can develop this vaccine.”
The zombie vaccine that the laboratory had been researching could at most prevent humans from becoming zombies after being bitten, but the Child of Destiny was certainly more capable than that, he was a genius who could turn zombies back into humans.
“So if the zombies don’t disappear, there can’t be a happy ending, if there can’t be a happy ending, the Child of Destiny can’t be replaced, if the Child of Destiny can’t be replaced, the vaccine can’t be developed, if the vaccine can’t be developed, the zombies won’t disappear, is that what you mean?” Rong Yu said slowly.
Yan Zhao: “…Yes.”
This was a vicious circle.
Rong Yu clapped his hands: “The world you chose for me is indeed meant to kill me.”
Yan Zhao: “…” It really wasn’t him who chose it, it was randomly detected by the Red Gold.
But he was the master of the Red Gold, he had to take the blame.
“As long as the zombies disappear, then I can burn them all?”
Yan Zhao was silent for a moment and nodded.
The method was indeed feasible, but too many lives that could have been resurrected would die…
But it was already very good that Rong Yu was still willing to complete the mission. These punishment missions were not meant for him to do. If the Demon King got angry, he could destroy this world.
The atmosphere in the room was a bit heavy for a while.
“Mr. Xi! Mr. Yan! It’s not good!” An ability user suddenly rushed to report, “A level seven zombie led five level six zombies, and many high-level zombies and countless level one zombies suddenly attacked, Captain Zhuang and the others can’t hold on anymore! The officer asks you to go support them!”
Yan Zhao and Rong Yu looked at each other and tacitly didn’t mention the grudge between them again.
There were several level six zombies in City A before, each occupying a territory and being their own king. Now one of the psychic zombies had been upgraded to level seven and immediately gathered a zombie army to attack the base.
When Yan Zhao and Rong Yu arrived, the situation was already urgent. The base only had four level six ability users, but there was a level seven zombie and five level six zombies under the city wall, as well as countless zombie armies. The four masters were already injured, and ordinary ability users suffered countless casualties.
Seeing Yan Zhao and Rong Yu coming, Lei Ting, who was struggling to support himself by releasing lightning, shouted hoarsely: “Mr. Yan and Mr. Xi are here! Brothers, hold on, we are saved!”
The other side only had one level seven zombie, but they had two level seven ability users!
Luo Shui quickly used her water ability to heal him: “Save your strength!”
Chi Yan grimaced: “Heal me too!”
Zhuang Yao was using a huge earth escape, resisting two level six zombies, the shield already had cracks.
Countless ability users stood on the city wall, repelling the high-level zombies climbing up. One batch fell, and soon another batch filled in. Just by relying on the sea of corpses tactic, they could exhaust the humans to death.
Seeing that the city gate of the base was about to be breached, Yan Zhao immediately used his bloodline suppression. All the zombies attacking the city were instantly frozen, stopping their attacks in unison.
Even the level seven zombie slowed down, a submissive urge rising in its heart.
After arriving in this world, Yan Zhao didn’t bother to upgrade his zombie body, it was still level seven. But this body was the Zombie Emperor, it could kill across levels, and even suppress those of the same level, making all zombies obey his orders.
The control instantly changed hands. Under Yan Zhao’s order, the dark zombie army suddenly retreated like a tide.
The humans on the city wall were dumbfounded, looking at Yan Zhao with admiration as if he was a god.
Was this a space ability? This was a psychic ability, right! To be able to make that level seven psychic zombie retreat, Mr. Yan’s ability level must have been upgraded to level eight! No, was level eight this powerful? Level nine? Level ten?
A catastrophe was so easily resolved. At this moment, Yan Zhao was undoubtedly the god in everyone’s hearts.
However, in the next second, everyone’s expression changed drastically.
“What is that!”
They saw that Yan Zhao actually turned his fingers into claws, sharp nails growing instantly.
Those nails were very iconic – they were zombie nails.
Rong Yu had him cut them, but as long as he wanted, he could grow them back anytime, anywhere.
“Yan Zhao is actually a zombie!”
“What level is he to be able to command level seven zombies? Is he the Zombie Emperor!”
“We actually let the Zombie Emperor sneak into the base! Oh my god! Is this their conspiracy to attack from both inside and outside!”
The victorious smiles of the people hadn’t even appeared before they were replaced by fear and despair. The four level six ability users also had expressions of disbelief, staring at Yan Zhao vigilantly.
An unexpected scene happened again——
Yan Zhao grew his nails, but didn’t hurt anyone, not even giving anyone else a look. He looked at Rong Yu, raised his hand and stabbed it hard into his chest, grabbing his heart.
There was no beating heart there, only a golden crystal nucleus.
The crystal nucleus of ordinary zombies was in their heads, but the crystal nucleus of the Zombie Emperor was in the human heart, shining golden, the color of the emperor.
That was his heart.
Other parts of the zombie didn’t have any pain, only the place where the crystal nucleus was located was the fatal weakness. When Yan Zhao dug out his crystal nucleus, he suffered real heart-wrenching pain.
The Main God could block the pain, but he didn’t do so.
“Only when all the zombies in the world disappear is the mission considered complete, and this body of mine is no exception.” Yan Zhao lost his strength to support himself, half-kneeled down, handed his crystal nucleus to him, and said softly, “The rest…”
Yan Zhao was silent for a moment and sighed: “Burn it.”
Billions of lives would be annihilated with his words, this was no different from cruelty to the Main God who protected all beings.
Rong Yu squatted down and looked at him quietly.
“I once stabbed you with a sword, an inch from your heart.” Yan Zhao covered his bleeding heart with one hand and held the golden crystal nucleus in the other, saying self-deprecatingly, “My divine body is hard to injure, and I don’t know pain, but this body can actually return the pain you suffered to me. You said you like golden, shiny things, this should be more beautiful than those jewels. This is my heart, I give it to you, take it.”
Rong Yu looked at Yan Zhao’s empty chest and reached out to take the crystal nucleus.
Seeing him take it, Yan Zhao smiled slightly: “I’ll take it as you accepting my heart.”
“After this body dies, my soul will return to the main body in the Myriad Gods Realm. Come to the Myriad Gods Realm, and I’ll let you do whatever you want with me, okay?”
“Rong Rong, I love you, I truly love you.”
After saying these words, the light in Yan Zhao’s eyes dissipated, and the body that lost its crystal nucleus no longer had any life.
Rong Yu looked at the corpse falling to the ground coldly, slowly stood up, and threw the golden crystal nucleus into the Blood Jade Bracelet’s space.
He said calmly: “Little Bracelet, remove all the seals.”
The Blood Jade Bracelet hesitated: Demon King, are you really… going to burn all the zombies to death?
As it spoke, it unsealed Rong Yu.
This was the only way.
It was a pity for so many lives.
Rong Yu felt the power gradually filling his body and asked faintly: “After this mission is over, I can go to the Myriad Gods Realm to find him?”
Blood Jade Bracelet: Master already knows that he wrongly blamed you, he definitely won’t let you continue to do missions in the small worlds.
“But he hasn’t experienced the first few worlds that I have experienced, he doesn’t even know that we fell in love in the 6666 world. It won’t end so soon, our timelines are still far apart, he will definitely continue to meet me in the small worlds.”
“Before, he loved me very much, this time, he just fell in love with me, if this continues, when I meet him again later, will he no longer love me?”
Blood Jade Bracelet: Demon King, don’t overthink it! Lord Main God won’t stop loving you!
“Even a one in ten thousand possibility, I won’t accept it.” Rong Yu lowered his eyes and sneered, “I’ve indeed lived long enough.”
The Blood Jade Bracelet sensed something was wrong: Demon King, what are you going to do?!
Rong Yu chuckled, firelight gathering in his palm: “Little Bracelet, I told you long ago, my life is not long.”
Blood Jade Bracelet: When did you say——
Oh right, it remembered, in Chu Zhuo’s world, the Demon King said that his life was not long.
But that was because the Demon King was going to take poison with the Main God!
“My soul lamp has long been extinguished.”
Blood Jade Bracelet: !!!
Blood Jade Bracelet: Wh, what?
“In a normal world, the soul lamp of the Child of Destiny is guarded by the guardian deity. I snatched mine and sealed it in my soul, so you don’t know.” Rong Yu smiled.
“Having held on until now, I can’t live much longer anyway. Rather than dying when he doesn’t love me anymore, it’s better to stop here.”
The Blood Jade Bracelet had a bad feeling: Demon King, don’t be impulsive, wait, Demon King!
The seal was completely removed, and a soul broke free from the shackles of the mortal body, floating above the body of “Xi Wang”.
Rong Yu was dressed in red, his long hair loose, a flame mark on his forehead. He pursed his red lips, looking down upon all beings from above, his tear mole adorned his face, his appearance extremely beautiful.
The replica of the Child of Destiny was still standing there blankly, like a puppet, being controlled by the Demon King.
Rong Yu spread his hands, bright red flames ignited in his palms, he tossed them upwards, and the replica followed suit.
In the eyes of humans, it was Xi Wang using his fire ability, preparing to deal with these zombies.
The uneasiness in the Blood Jade Bracelet’s heart grew stronger.
Was the Demon King going to burn all the zombies in the world? If the Demon King was in his prime, this flame would be insignificant, but, but the Demon King just said that his soul lamp was extinguished…
Then what was burning was his soul! The Red Lotus Karmic Fire had no body, it only condensed into a human-shaped soul body, the soul was the Demon King himself!
How could the Demon King’s soul lamp be extinguished? When was it extinguished? He was clearly so powerful…
Rong Yu closed his eyes, and when he opened them, his black pupils instantly turned into a pair of red eyes, the flame on his forehead bloomed into a red lotus, and the black tear mole at the end of his eyes actually turned into a bright red blood mole, his black hair flying, making him even more enchanting.
Raging flames ignited around Rong Yu, he threw the two clusters of karmic fire into the sky, scattering them into countless stars, and the starlight-like sparks scattered towards the world.
The sky was filled with shooting stars, a beautiful scene.
Those sparks spread to every corner of the world, accurately landing on the zombies. However, the zombies stained with the flames didn’t instantly vanish into ashes. Their blue-gray skin returned to normal human skin color, their disfigured faces became normal again, their consciousness slowly returned, their eyes gradually changed from empty to confused…
They turned back into themselves.
“Eh? Strange, why am I here?”
“Hiss, I stink! How long has it been since I showered?”
“Ahhh, I haven’t turned off the gas at home yet!”
…
Such scenes happened simultaneously all over the world. In City A base, the people on the high wall stared blankly at the vast zombie army below, turning back into human form in just a few minutes.
Was this real?
At the same time, some human ability users discovered that the power of their abilities was slowly disappearing.
Humans evolved abilities to resist zombies, and when the apocalypse ended, the world no longer needed the existence of abilities. Otherwise, the huge power gap would always make some ability users oppose ordinary people, just like the original zombies and humans. Chen Ruifeng, who considered himself powerful and didn’t treat ordinary people as humans, was the best example.
Rong Yu conveniently erased this power.
The Blood Jade Bracelet was stunned: How, how could this be? Wasn’t the Red Lotus Karmic Fire the fire of destruction that could burn everything in the world? Not only were they not burned to ashes, but they also turned back into humans intact?
Rong Yu didn’t answer it.
The Red Lotus Karmic Fire did have the attack power to destroy the world and burn everything, it was the demonic fire that all beings feared.
But it could also be the Buddha fire that burned away sins and impurity, purifying all beings.
One thought could turn you into a demon, one thought could turn you into a Buddha.
The Sun was the god who protected all beings in the vast world, so the Red Lotus didn’t want to destroy any world, any living being.
Therefore, the demon became a Buddha.
But for the Red Lotus Karmic Fire, which was already at the end of its strength, this was accelerating the consumption of his life.
Purification was far more difficult than destruction. Rong Yu burned the fire of purification, his soul body was already so transparent that it almost dissipated at any time.
The ever-bright candle sealed in his soul was originally only a small part the size of a fingernail, the firelight extremely weak. If it was any other Child of Destiny, this degree of damage would have long been extinguished, but he was still holding on.
This was the soul lamp of Rong Yu, the Child of Destiny of the 6666 world.
Under the release of the fire of purification, the last bit of firelight also flickered, about to completely dissipate at any time.
The Blood Jade Bracelet didn’t have time to think about the reason anymore, it said anxiously: Demon King, don’t consume the flame anymore! Without the soul lamp, every minute and every second you burn is your own life! Your soul will be scattered and your ashes dispersed!
The red lotus on Rong Yu’s forehead flickered, the beautiful petals gradually dimmed and withered with the transparency of the soul body: “Tell your master, I have protected this world for him.”
The Blood Jade Bracelet said with a crying voice: Wuwuwu, Demon King, don’t die! If Lord Main God knew, he would rather have this world destroyed!
“I waited for him for nine hundred and seventy-two vicissitude cycles of life, he used his immortal body to remember me for the rest of his life, I’m the one who gained.” Rong Yu chuckled, his beautiful red eyes turned into calm black eyes, and the enchanting blood mole also faded.
The mark on his forehead was so faint that it was almost invisible.
“Tell him that the things in this bracelet of yours are all our tokens of love.”
“Tell him that I knew what true love was earlier than him, but I was hurt by him.”
The flames spread to the Demon King’s sleeves, the flames burning wantonly, engulfing his soul bit by bit.
Rong Yu’s lips curled slightly.
“Tell him, I love him.”
After the words fell, the soul lamp was extinguished, and the stunning young man in red completely turned into ashes, disappearing into the air.
A blood jade bracelet fell from mid-air, landed on the ground, and burst into tears.
No one heard this cry, the whole world was drowned in laughter.
They welcomed new life.
“Savior! Mr. Xi is the savior!” People shouted loudly.
The excited people lifted Xi Wang up, threw him high into the air, and then caught him in the crowd.
“No, I’m not… Ah!” Xi Wang, who had just taken over, hadn’t reacted yet before he was thrown into the air by the enthusiastic crowd.
He looked at the sky in a daze, as if he saw the stunning young man in red smile proudly, turning into a shooting star falling to the ground
That is the real savior.
In the world numbered 5627, Xi Wang, the son of destiny, purifies the zombies around the world, completely ends the apocalypse, and the fifth lamp is lit.
