Lin Yuan still had a calm expression on his face, and there was no sign of any wavering.

Just the fingers stuck to the tea cup stopped turning.

Lin Yuan neither admitted nor denied.

But many times, silence already represents some kind of answer.

"So... the entire Fengdu City is just a bait. Those soldiers who died in Fengdu City were all pushed into hell by you."

"Right?" Cui Hao's murderous intent gradually became stronger, and his eyes looking at Lin Yuan became colder and colder.

"Mr. Cui, we humans have no choice anymore."

Lin Yuan slowly raised his head, looked directly into Cui Hao's cold eyes, and said quietly, "Each demon tide requires the entire human race to support it."

"The demon clan can fail once, ten times, or a hundred times."

"But as long as it succeeds once, our human race will be beyond redemption and the entire family will be wiped out."

"If you want to defeat these beasts, ordinary methods will no longer have any effect."

"If you want to win... you have to make a dangerous move."

"Do something evil!"

"Since I joined the Demon Slayer Division, I have started from the bottom, accumulated prestige step by step, and climbed up step by step. I have used all the means I can use just to climb to the highest position."

"All voices of opposition and all hostile forces have become dead souls under my sword."

"I can say without any humility that I am the most powerful chief of the Demon Slayer Department since the first generation."

"There are some things that if I don't even do it, then no one really has the ability to do it."

The murderous intention escaping from Cui Hao's body almost condensed into substance, like a sharp blade, reaching Lin Yuan's neck.

But Lin Yuan didn't panic at all, and even the superpowers in his body didn't work at all.

Even if he knew that with the current situation, Cui Hao could crush his head at any time.

Cui Hao clenched his fists several times and then released them. The veins on his forehead had swelled to the point of bulging, and several bloodshot lines gradually appeared in his eyes.

"Xiao Linzi, I have one last question to ask you." Cui Hao stared at Lin Yuan and said while suppressing the killing intent surging in his heart.

"Mr. Cui, please speak." Lin Yuan's tone was still calm, as if he was the one holding the handle of the knife.

Cui Hao took a deep breath, paused for a long time, and finally asked, "I want you to tell me personally."

"If I give you another chance."

"Will you give Fengdu City a way to survive?"

Lin Yuan shook his head gently and said seriously, "The soldiers in the Burial City are all heroes of the human race."

"It's not them who deserve to go to hell, but me. If Mr. Cui wants to take my head, he can do it at any time."

"But if I were to make a choice again."

"I would still give the same order."

"I'm not afraid of going to hell. My hands have long been stained with blood. Countless people have died because of my orders, and countless people have sacrificed their lives for me. I can't live just for myself."

Cui Hao's aura increased again, and the surging pressure made the entire chief office shake violently.

Lin Yuan could no longer breathe at all, his old face turned red, and his brain began to suffer from dizziness due to lack of oxygen, but he still did not relent and begged for mercy.

At the last moment when Cui Hao's momentum was about to break through the eighth level and reach the ninth level.

The astonishing murderous intent suddenly disappeared, and the terrifying pressure quickly overflowed into the air like a dam that had opened its gates.

The expression on Cui Hao's face has returned to calmness, and there is no longer any murderous look in his eyes.

Like a teacher teaching his students, he said calmly, "Now that I have decided, I will never regret it..."

"You are very good, you are really very good. You have not insulted the word 'junhou' that the previous chief gave you."

"You are the chief of the Demon Slaying Department and the leader of the human race. If even you are hesitant and vacillating, then the human race will really be doomed."

After speaking, Cui Hao slowly turned around and walked out of the office.

His figure seemed to have become a lot stooped all of a sudden, and he looked like an ordinary old man.

"Cui... Mr. Cui..." Lin Yuan took a few deep breaths, quickly adjusted his breath, and asked Cui Hao's back, "Can we... still fight side by side?"

Cui Hao slowed down a little, but did not look back, "I don't know what method you plan to use to completely wipe out Fengdu City, a city with an army of millions of monsters."

"I don't intend to interfere with your plan."

"I will use my own methods to help the human race."

"When the demon tide comes, I will go to the front line."

"Let's not disturb or interfere with each other, just do our own thing."

Lin Yuan stood up nervously and said to Cui Hao, who was walking away, "Mr. Cui, I started to accept your teachings when I was still a top soldier."

"Although we don't have the name of master and disciple, we are actually master and disciple."

"I don't even remember how many times you rescued me from the battlefield."

"us..."

"Can we still trust each other with our lives as before?"

Cui Hao stopped in front of the chief's office door and said softly, "I can understand your order, I can approve your judgment, and I can also accept the reality that Fengdu City has fallen."

"But we can never be the same again."

"From the moment you gave the order to abandon Fengdu City, you and I have broken off our relationship."

"This is the last time we meet."

"When we meet next time, I'm afraid..."

"See you in hell."

After he finished speaking, Cui Hao took a step and disappeared behind the office door.

Lin Yuan stared at the half-open door in a daze, waiting for a long, long time, but didn't hear any movement.

He numbly filled a cup of cold tea for himself.

Lin Yuan raised the teacup, touched it lightly against the empty cup in front of him, and whispered in a low voice, "Mr. Cui...See you in hell."

He drank it in one gulp, and the cold tea went through his throat and body, and finally fell into his heart.

......

Outside the headquarters of the Demon Slayer Division, two figures quietly waited for Cui Hao's arrival.

"City Lord, you made such a big noise just now, I thought you were really going to do it."

"I almost planned to rush over to help you."

Li Yunshu's old face forced a wrinkled smile and walked towards Cui Hao.

"Come on, old Li, your face turned pale just now." Guitu teased with a smile.

She listened to her teacher and did not wear the weird red and black mask today.

"Xiao Linzi didn't set any defense against me because he remembered our friendship. I didn't kill him because I remembered our friendship."

"His decision was not wrong, but I can't forgive him on behalf of the people who were sacrificed." Cui Hao strode forward and walked in front of Guitu and Guima.

Then, Cui Hao changed the subject and asked Li Yunshu beside him, "How are you gathering the survivors of Fengdu City?"

"I have gathered most of the survivors of Fengdu City. Thanks to the Demon Subduing Device, it has been much smoother."

"The current team leaders are all our former subordinates, and they have not fallen behind in equipment and training."

"In terms of strength, they cannot compare with the regular army for the time being, but in terms of fighting will, there is absolutely no problem."

"Everyone is holding their breath in their hearts. As long as they can kill the demon, no one is afraid of death."

Li Yunshu followed Cui Hao step by step, just like in the past.

Cui Hao nodded and said nothing more.

The three took a few steps and disappeared into the dark night.
