When everyone gathered together again, it seemed that what happened last night had never happened. Except for Long Yu, who no longer had a smiling face, everything seemed to have never changed.

"Long Ao, thank you for saving me," Su Li looked at Long Ao and said with a smile.

"You're welcome, we are partners." Long Ao returned a faint smile to the other party.

"I still like a boy with a smile on his face and a big nerve," Long Ao said softly when passing by Long Yu.

Long Yu trembled all over, bowed his head and said. "Unfortunately, we can't go back."

"Yes! I can't go back, Long Yu, you are the one who hides everything with a smile!"The boy's ethereal voice came from outside the house.

"Cover? Haha"!Long Yu raised his head, a look of helplessness flashed in his bright eyes, "Aren't we the same?"

"Yeah! Is it different?"

The moment everyone stepped into the trial hall again, everyone's eyes came together, and they gathered around and started whispering.

It's not that they haven't seen this group of people before. They are the most famous people in the school during this period of time.

However, for some reason today, everyone felt that something was a little different.

"Today's task of leading the second level of swordsmanship, I will only accept this one. I will accept the task. You are waiting for me here," Long Ao said.

Several people nodded, but no one said a word.

Hearing that Long Ao was going to accept a sword-level mission, everyone in the hall was no longer surprised, because in this world, strength represented everything.

It took a long time for everyone to come back to their senses after a few people took the task and walked out of the trial club.

"Their temperament has changed," someone said.

The others were taken aback for a moment, but nodded in unison.

"Yes, their temperament has changed." The last time they came to accept the task, Long Ao's aura left a deep impression on everyone.

But this time, it seemed that it could be felt in other people as well.Although the breath of other people is very weak.

But when they come together, it feels so clear.

"That kind of breath is sad, especially the white-haired boy, when he is close to him, there will always be a sad breath spreading in his heart."

"Yeah! Who are they? What have they been through?"

No one answered, because at this moment, they had the same question in their hearts.

After arriving at the destination, Long Ao found a place to sit down and said calmly. "Today's goal, I will not make a shot, and I hope I will not have the opportunity to make a shot."

"Yes," Longfeng said firmly.

"Chen Xue, you don't need to go there," Long Ao said to the girl as if he remembered something.

"Brother Long Ao, I..."!

Seeing that Long Ao ignored her, Chen Xue sat down beside her with a dejected expression.

Looking at the giant lion fighting with everyone, Long Ao said indifferently. "Why didn't you do it at that time, was it because you were afraid, or because you didn't want to."

"I......"!

Chen Xue didn't seem to expect that Long Ao would ask her such a question, and froze in place.And Long Ao didn't seem to remind her of his plan.

"I......"!

"I don't want to." After an unknown amount of time, Chen Xue looked at the place where everyone was fighting and said softly.

"Why"?Long Ao's voice was as flat as a glass of boiled water.

"Because I couldn't bear to do it," Chen Xue lowered her head.

"Could not bear"?Long Ao curled the corner of his mouth, seemingly helpless, mocking.

"Yes, I can't bear it, because they are so pitiful." Chen Xue raised her head, with tears in her eyes.

"Pitiful"?Long Ao looked into the distance, his eyes were empty.

"Cher, do you have something you want to protect"?

"Yes! I want to protect everyone around me," Chen Xue said.

"But, if you want to protect, you have to pay a price," Long Ao said faintly.

"cost"?Chen Xue blinked her eyes, seemingly puzzled.

"If you want to protect the people around you, if you want to protect everything you want to protect, you must have enough strength."

"Without strength, you can't even protect yourself. How can you talk about protecting others, Xue'er, don't forget, what kind of world is this?"

"The weak eat the strong, and the strong are respected," Long Ao said word by word.

"The weak eat the strong, the strong respect, I..."!

"Did you see? They also have people they want to protect, and they also have everything they want to protect," Long Ao said coldly, pointing at the people who were still fighting fiercely.

"Want to protect..."!

Chen Xue repeated.

"Chen Bing, your brother, the person he wants to protect the most is you."

"However, he also knows that you can't stay by his side forever, so he is afraid, he is afraid that one day he will not be able to protect you, and one day he will hurt you"!

"Because on this continent where the weak prey on the strong and the strong are respected, he is afraid that he will not be able to go further, so he is also eagerly hoping that you can stand up and step out of his wings."

"Get stronger, get stronger, get stronger again. Chen Xue, no one in this world can protect you forever, except yourself," Long Ao said coldly.

"elder brother"!Chen Xue shouted.

"Sit down," Long Ao stretched out his hand to hold him, and said coldly.It seems that he didn't see the fierce battle over there, and he didn't see the injured people.

"I want to go there, let me go," Chen Xue struggled desperately to break free from Long Ao's grip.

"What could you have done in the past? Help? Or... die"?Long Ao said coldly.

"I......"!

"Chen Xue, what can you do with your current ability? What can you do if you don't even have the heart to kill a monster?"

"Aside from distracting them from taking care of you, what use is there for you? People without strength can only become a burden to others."

"Because you can't do anything, now they can get up when they are injured."

"But, do you know what will happen to them after you pass by? Let me tell you, in order to protect you who have no strength, to protect you who dare not even touch a sword, they... will die" !Long Ao let go of Chen Xue, and said these words coldly and cruelly.

"I am...a burden"!Chen Xue's eyes were empty, and there were tears in her eyes.

"Want to protect them? Want to keep them around"?Long Ao stood up and pointed to the people who were still fighting in the distance and asked.

"what should I do"?Chen Xue looked at her hand and asked softly.

"Take up your arms and go to fight!"

"If you want to protect the people around you, you must become strong. Only the strong can do what they want to do."

"Compassion, that belongs to the weak, the strong never need such a thing," Long Ao said coldly.

"What does the strong...need"?Chen Xue asked.

"Blood, killing, cruelty, ruthlessness, if you want to become stronger and have the power to protect, you must discard the little bit of goodness in your heart that you don't know."

"When you have experienced life and death, when you really understand this world, you will know that the so-called goodness in this world is not something that the weak can have." Long Ao's cold voice carried a faint silence.

"throw away"?Chen Xue clutched her chest, her expression a little numb.

"stop"!Long Ao took Chen Xue to the place where everyone was fighting.

Everyone stopped when they heard Long Ao's voice, and stared blankly at her wondering what she wanted to do.

"Did you see it? In its heyday, you have no strength to fight against it, and your end is death"!Long Ao pointed at the dying giant lion and said coldly.

Hearing Long Ao's words, everyone looked at Chen Xue's empty eyes, which were full of worry.

However, none of them spoke, including Chen Bing.

Although they didn't know what Long Ao said to Chen Xue, they knew why Long Ao did it.

"Chen Xue, pick up your weapon and kill it," Long Ao said coldly.

"What"?Chen Xue's empty eyes finally regained their focus, and stared closely at the giant lion's eyes.

"I said, kill it"!Long Ao repeated it again.

"I......"!

"No, I don't want it," Chen Xue took a few steps back.

"don't want"!Long Ao curled the corner of his mouth and said mockingly. "The weak eat the strong, the fittest survive, now it is the weak, and you... are the strong".

"Now you have the right to decide its life and death. The law of the jungle is the law of survival in this world, and you who grew up under this world have no way to object."

"Because you... have no rights".Long Ao walked behind Chen Xue, pulled out her spirit sword, stuffed it into her hand, and ordered again coldly and cruelly.

"Kill it"!

"I don't want it, I don't want it," Chen Xue kept stepping back while holding the sword.

"I said kill it", Long Ao held her hand holding the spirit sword, and sent the sword into the giant lion's body.

"No, I don't want to do this," Chen Xue let go of her hands and sat down on the ground.

"The strong climb to the top through countless blood and bones. If you can't accept it, don't say anything to protect it."

"Because you...couldn't do it, and you don't have the qualifications," Long Ao said before leaving the place without any regrets.
