When the hodgepodge world of anime meets the shadow king

【Clearance program started!】

The system's harsh reminder sound exploded in Kitahara Akira's subconscious mind.

The god took a deep look at Kitahara Xiao for the last time, and his body gradually became weaker, obviously wanting to leave.

"Stop right there!"

Kitahara Akatsuki saw that the god obviously didn't want to go against the system of the home court, so he stretched out his hand to grab him, but his hand was empty.

Seeing the gods leave, the system space calmed down again.

Kitahara Akira took a deep breath

The appearance of gods represents so many things. This world is more serious than I thought...

but....

He looked down at himself

Thanks to the scene created by the gods to tempt him, he finally untied the knot in his heart temporarily, and the little power left when the gods tempted him also greatly increased his strength.

“You’re right, I can always do it.”

Kitahara Xiao's eyes slowly closed, as if he had entered a state of self-isolation. His breathing became steady and deep, and the whole world seemed to be quiet.

The next moment, a ball of [Shadow Power] suddenly appeared on his right hand, flickering with a faint light, like a bright pearl in the darkness.

Suddenly, Kitahara Xiao opened his eyes abruptly, with a hint of determination flashing in his eyes.

Without hesitation, he pressed the [Power of Shadow] in his hand hard on his heart. At that moment, a sharp pain spread throughout his body, but Kitahara Xiao clenched his teeth and did not make any sound.

At this moment, Kitahara Xiao's body trembled violently, and he felt a powerful force surge from his heart and quickly spread throughout his body.

"stand up!"

..........................................................

Trial Space

In the ruins, [Chen Xiao] silently watched Kitahara Xiao lying in a pool of blood

He was so disappointed.

He shook his head, took back the Ten Thousand Souls Banner, and turned to walk towards the exit of the trial space.

"boom--!"

Just after walking a few dozen meters away, Beiyuan Xiao, who was lying in a pool of blood, suddenly opened his eyes. A huge amount of energy gushed out instantly, like a surging torrent, rushing straight into the sky.

"?!"

[Chen Xiao] looked back quickly, eyes full of shock

"What a joke!"

He gritted his teeth, feeling indignant.

Kitahara Xiao's body floated up into the air and stood on the ground again, all his injuries healed.

"Why?!" [Chen Xiao] yelled, "Why can you start over? Just because of this damn system?!"

He drew out his blade, stepped in front of Kitahara Akira and slashed fiercely.

"clang!"

Kitahara Akatsuki gathered a long sword and easily blocked the attack. With some remaining power from the gods, he was no longer the same as before.

"I also want to thank you, thank you for finally helping me sort out my inner thoughts"

"I have indeed made new connections here, but that doesn't mean I will forget them. In fact, I already have some clues."

"Go to hell!" [Chen Xiao] attacked fiercely without caring about his injuries

Why? Why?!

He had spent most of his life and tried every possible means to find no trace of them, so how could this guy find them so easily?!

Is it because this guy has a system? !

"Dang!" "Dang!" "Dang!" Chen Xiao's fierce attack was completely blocked by Kitahara Xiao.

"Goodbye"

Kitahara Xiao's whole body suddenly burst out with strength far beyond his prime, and Chen Xiao was severely injured in an instant.

"Cough..." Chen Xiao, who fell to the ground, spat out a mouthful of hot blood.

He moved his head with difficulty, staring at Kitahara Xiao with bloodshot eyes, the corners of his mouth slightly raised, his eyes full of mockery.

"The system is really disgusting. I have practiced for more than 40 years and I can't even beat an underage child."

He turned his head back and looked straight at the sky

"But you are nothing more than a chess piece, a chess piece whose fate is controlled by the system."

Chess pieces? Maybe

Kitahara Akira understood

In fact, when the god tried to seduce him and the system stepped in to stop him, he had already seen something from the extremely hostile attitude between the two.

His crossing may be destined

But so what?

Whether it's a chess piece or a chess player, with his current strength, thinking about these things will only add to his troubles.

Perhaps only when he reaches that end, will he have the capital to talk to chess players.

“Ha…hahaha…hahahahaha!”

Seeing that Kitahara Xiao didn't say anything, Chen Xiao, who thought he had touched his sore spot, burst into laughter.

"I was stupid enough to believe the nonsense of this system and lower my strength to come here. As a result, my decades of cultivation became your stepping stone."

A few tears of reluctance flowed from the corners of his eyes

Since my fate has already been determined, what are the hardships of the past few decades?!

Kitahara Xiao looked at him silently, and after thinking for a while, he slowly spoke

"Your intentions were not wrong, but your methods were...extreme"

"Extreme?!" Chen Xiao became excited.

“You…cough cough cough cough…”

A few drops of blood flowed from his lips

"What do you know?!"

"How could you possibly understand the price I've paid for them over the years!"

"Of course I know," Kitahara Xiao interrupted.

He leaned down and looked into Chen Xiao's eyes

"Because I am you"

【Chen Xiao】Suddenly I felt dazed

Kitahara Akira continued

"How many people have you killed? 100,000? 1 million? I'm afraid it's far more than that."

He could feel that the souls refined in Chen Xiao's Ten Thousand Souls Banner were far more than what he saw.

"I don't care how many people you kill, because I don't consider myself a saint, and I wouldn't care about the lives of millions of strangers if I were you."

"But you clearly know that this road is a dead end, why do you want to continue on this path?"

"Because you are afraid, afraid to face the reality that you are powerless."

[Chen Xiao] As if his thoughts were revealed, his pupils constricted

"Besides..." Kitahara Xiao paused, "Do they really want to see you do this?"

Silence

"......" [Chen Xiao] looked at the sky in silence

"Hu..." He took a deep breath with a trembling sound

"oi, 'I'" [Chen Xiao] looked at Kitahara Xiao "You said before that you have some clues about their whereabouts, right?"

Kitahara Akira nodded

Seeing this, Chen Xiao's momentum instantly weakened.

"Whatever...I have no hope anyway."

He concentrated his mind, and a pale yellow ball of light flew from between his eyebrows to Kitahara Xiao's front.

"This is my spiritual consciousness, it can strengthen your soul." [Chen Xiao] explained, "Don't worry, I won't take over your body or anything."

"This is my last regret." The light in Chen Xiao's eyes gradually dimmed, like an old man who was about to die. "Find them, or I will not let you go even if I become a ghost."

Kitahara Akira took a deep breath and said, "Of course."

[Chen Xiao] smiled and closed his eyes under Kitahara Xiao's gaze
