"Are you OK?"
Luke looked at Tian Xin in his arms with concern, his eyes full of worry.
Tian Xin shook her head, her blush deepening. "I'm fine, thank you for saving me."
Everyone around was stunned. They didn't expect Luke to appear here, and they were even more surprised that he was so strong, easily blocking Wang Da Dong's full-force attack.
Luke gently put Tian Xin down and turned to look at Wang Dadong: "Dadong, what's wrong with you? How could you hit the class teacher so hard?"
Wang Dadong scratched his head awkwardly: "I, I didn't mean to, I just didn't react in time."
Even though he already knew that Tian Xin was improving rapidly, Wang Dadong really didn't expect that Tian Xin could improve even more in battle.
Luke sighed, walked over to Wang Dadong, and handed him the Dragon Pattern Shield: "Be careful in the future, and don't let this happen again."
Wang Dadong took the dragon-patterned griddle and nodded: "I understand, I'll be more careful in the future."
At this moment, Tian Xin walked over, looked at Luke, and said with gratitude in her eyes, "Luke, thank you for saving me."
Luke smiled slightly: "Teacher, there's no need to be so polite."
A gentle smile appeared on Tian Xin's face as she looked at Luke, a strange light flashing in her eyes.
Luke looked at Tian Xin, and their gazes met in the air, as if an electric current flowed between them.
Chapter 173: The Final Chapter: Playing the Soul-Cleansing Melody
Tian Xin blushed and broke free from Luke's arm.
As he felt that warm, soft body leave him, a hint of regret inevitably flashed in Luke's eyes.
"Alright, enough talk. We have everything we need, so we can start rescuing people now."
"Da Dong, you guys protect me this time, I'll play the Soul Cleansing Song. Once the Soul Cleansing Song is played, demons will definitely run rampant. You guys help me hold them off."
After hearing what Luke said, Tian Xin forgot about being shy and blinked her beautiful, bright eyes.
"I'll help too."
Tian Xin already felt guilty enough about what her younger brother had gone through before, and now that he could be saved, she naturally wanted to do her part.
Luke glanced at her and said helplessly, "Teacher, I need to remind you first that during the process of playing the Soul Cleansing Song, your brother will appear to be in great pain, but this is not his intention. Rather, it is the demonic nature within him rebelling. The demon is the last thing to tempt people. At that time, he will wail in pain and even show weakness and beg for help, but that is all the demon's doing. You need to be mentally prepared."
Tian Xin took a deep breath and nodded.
With everything ready, Luke borrowed Huyan Jue Luo Xiu's little wasp.
There's a saying that goes, "Without music, there is no ultimate experience."
Luke has some knowledge of music, mainly thanks to the combination of talents from multiple worlds, which allows him to achieve results with minimal learning.
With Luke's combat strength, he can meet the requirements for playing the Soul Cleansing Melody without the help of others.
The sheet music was unfurled, and Tian Hongguang was tied to a chair in front of Luke. Luke picked up Little Bumblebee, plucked the strings, and a mysterious musical sound rang out.
The melodious piano music gradually became low and urgent, and the power of the Soul Cleansing Song began to permeate Tian Hongguang's body. His eyes involuntarily flashed with streaks of purple demonic light, like eerie stars twinkling in the night sky.
As the strings vibrated, Tian Hongguang's body began to tremble uncontrollably, as if countless invisible chains were binding his soul, forcing him to let out an extremely painful wail.
Tian Xin bit her lower lip tightly, her eyes glistening with tears, but she forced herself to look away from her brother's distorted face.
Luke's words were like a warning bell ringing in her heart. She knew that this was a demonic struggle, a last stand. She couldn't let her brother's efforts be in vain, and she couldn't let him fall into endless darkness again.
"Ah——々々——"
Tian Hongguang's wails were heart-wrenching. Black demonic patterns began to appear on his skin, moving around like living things and devouring his reason and will.
Tian Xin's hands were clenched tightly, her knuckles turning white from the force, but her eyes remained firm and unmoved.
"Hold on, Tian Hongguang!"
Luke silently cheered for Tian Hongguang in his heart. He knew that as long as he persevered a little longer, Tian Hongguang would be able to break free from the demonic shackles and regain his freedom.
The music grew increasingly intense, like waves crashing against Tian Hongguang's body in a storm.
Tian Hongguang's wails gradually weakened, as if the power within him was being exhausted bit by bit.
Tian Xin was filled with anxiety, but she remained calm. She knew this was the final moment, and if she could just hold on a little longer, victory would be within reach.
Finally, as the last note fell, Tian Hongguang's body jolted violently, and the purple demonic light in his eyes dissipated into the air like smoke blown away by the wind.
His body stopped trembling, the demonic markings gradually faded, and all the demonic energy vanished with the end of the Soul Cleansing Song.
Tian Xin could no longer hold back and rushed forward to hug her younger brother tightly, tears welling up in her eyes, but this time, they were tears of joy.
All of this seemed to pass quickly, but in reality, Luke played the Requiem for at least half an hour.
But nothing was uneventful during that half hour. Let's rewind to when Luke had just started playing the Requiem.
Given Luke's combat strength, while the sound of the Soul Cleansing Song might not cover the entire Gold Dimension, it would be enough to reach extremely far places, and within this range, there happens to be the Black Dragon's Martial Judgment Office.
The black dragon, deeply entrenched in demonic nature, was most affected, its body surging with demonic energy as it roared towards the sky.
The black dragon roared, its voice filled with resentment and anger: "What kind of music is this? It's causing my demonic nature to drain away! Is this power trying to challenge my authority?"
His eyes gleamed with a dark light, as if they could see through all the darkness in the world.
The four martial corpses beside him—Destruction, Darkness, Poison, and Nothingness—sensed the Black Dragon's anger and revealed their ferocious faces.
Although they were puppets of the demon, they could still sense the purifying power emanating from the Soul Cleansing Song, which posed an unprecedented threat to their existence.
The black dragon snorted coldly, demonic energy swirling around him. He knew the power of this force was immense and not to be underestimated: "Fine, come with me. I want to see who dares to run wild on my territory!"
The four martial corpses responded to the call and moved like ghosts, instantly disappearing into the shadows of the Martial Power Tribunal.
The black dragon followed closely behind, its demonic energy soaring to the heavens, as if it wanted to shroud the entire Gold Dimension in darkness.
Guided by the Soul Cleansing Melody, they sped along, leaving a trail of demonic energy in their wake, withering vegetation, and causing all living things to tremble.
The black dragon grew increasingly furious. If this purifying power was not eliminated, it would pose a great threat to his rule.
However, as they approached their destination, a powerful force suddenly erupted—the final strike of the Soul Cleansing Song. It was like a beam of light that illuminated the entire night sky, revealing the figures of Black Dragon and his companions to the light.
Black Dragon's expression changed. He sensed the terrifying power and knew he had to act quickly, or the consequences would be unimaginable.
His body began to emit a dense black aura, and his power began to rise. He wanted to use his own power to fight against the power that seemed to be able to cleanse all demonic forces.
Black Dragon led the four martial corpses, like shadows in the night, swiftly and silently traversing the empty streets. They had only one goal—the source of the music that cleansed the demonic influence.
However, their actions were like chasing a fading light; by the time they finally reached the place where the melodious tune was emanating, it was already too late.
Every note of the Soul Cleansing Melody was like a sharp sword, cutting into the deep-rooted demonic nature within the black dragon, causing unprecedented pain and fear.
Chapter 174: The Final Chapter: I Treated You Like a Brother, But You Wanted to Be My Brother-in-Law?
Although the Soul Cleansing Melody was not specifically played for the Black Dragon, its power unexpectedly affected him, like an invisible storm sweeping over his demonic nature, causing him to lose more than 20% of it.
Anger and resentment burned in the black dragon's eyes; his demonic nature had been dealt an unprecedented blow in this sudden purification.
"No—this is impossible!"
The black dragon's roar was deafening, and his demonic energy spread out like a storm, trying to find the source of that power, only to find that everything was already over.
The black dragon's rage could only turn into a powerless roar, echoing in the empty streets.
The four martial corpses stood behind the black dragon, their eyes revealing a hint of fear and unease.
They had never seen such a powerful purifying force before, and even beings like themselves felt a profound threat.
The black dragon's rage burned in their hearts, but they also knew that the most important thing now was to regroup their strength and restore the black dragon's demonic nature.
The black dragon took a deep breath. Although his demonic nature had been weakened, his will had not been broken.
He wants to find the person who played the Soul Cleansing Song, and he wants to make that person pay the price. He wants to make the entire Gold Dimension submit to his darkness.
"let's go!"
Black Dragon's voice was deep and powerful. His figure gradually disappeared into the night, taking the four martial corpses with him into the darkness.
After playing the Requiem, Tian Hongguang regained his senses. When he opened his eyes, he saw a boy standing in front of him with a guitar in his hand.
He didn't know the boy, but he knew he was a friend.
Tian Hongguang still had some memories of his time as a zombie warrior, though they weren't deep and were just fragments, but he knew that Luke had saved him.
"Ah Guang!"
The moment Tian Hongguang returned to normal, Tian Xin rushed over, hugged her younger brother, and cried tears of joy.
Tian Hongguang was now completely powerless, and Tian Xin had only recently awakened her fighting power. When she gave him such a bear hug, Tian Hongguang felt like all the bones in his body were about to break.
"Sis, be gentle, I'm a cripple now."
Although he complained, Tian Hongguang was happy inside.
Tian Xin hurriedly let go of his hand and began to examine Tian Hongguang's body.
"Ah Guang, are you alright? I didn't mean to. Let me see where you're hurt?"
Tian Hongguang smiled and said, "Sister, I'm fine, don't worry!"
Tian Xin was finally relieved.
"You're okay, but I'm in trouble!"
Just then, a weak voice came from the side.
The siblings turned around and saw Luke, pale-faced, leaning on the little wasp with one hand, kneeling on one knee, swaying precariously.
Tian Xin quickly stepped forward to support him and asked with concern.
"Luke, are you alright?"
Luke leaned against Tian Xin, inhaling her faint fragrance and feeling her softness, feigning weakness.
"It's alright, teacher. I'm just a little exhausted."
Is Luke's energy expenditure high?
Of course it's huge, at least tens of thousands of points of combat power output, which would have drained an ordinary person long ago.
But it didn't matter to Luke, because his recovery speed was many times faster than that of an ordinary person.
However, even if the damage is not significant, Luke still has to pretend that it is extremely severe. When it comes to picking up girls, you can't win the heart of a beauty without shivering.
