The Cold Commander Cried When He Kissed - Chap 174
Chap 174
Master, the Empire is in Danger
Xie Chen’s hand froze as he tried to stroke him.
The pupils of the deep purple eyes were shrinking crazily, and the sound that caused the earth to tremble was——
5S mecha, silver wings.
“Xie Chen, do you think I’m a fool?” A cold and indifferent voice sounded in my ears.
He doesn’t believe me.
He still wants to kill me.
This realization nearly broke Xie Chen’s nerves. “I didn’t lie to you! You are the only one in this world who can erase memories. Only you!”
“You are unique and you love me!”
Even though his commander had been hurt, he still loved her in his heart. Even if he left the main galaxy out of sadness, he would come back to be his queen one day.
Xie Chen always thought so.
A pale silver light enveloped Shi Ji, and his cold and beautiful face remained calm and composed.
“I did think so once. I would never do anything to you.”
So when Dean Hertz asked him the first time, he denied it without hesitation.
He would not kill Xie Chen himself.
Even though he realized that his memory was related to Xie Chen, and that this person had hurt him before, he still had no intention of killing Xie Chen.
The Crown Prince, who was the first person to show kindness to him when he first entered the palace, was indeed enough for Shi Ji to forgive everything for him.
“You still are.”
Xie Chen’s gaze finally softened a little, and he stretched out his hand to him almost gently, “Come with me, Commander Shi, when I find it, this galaxy will still be ours…”
His outstretched hand was broken with a snap by the mecha that was suddenly activated.
The silver light suddenly became brighter, and the five-dimensional alloy silver armor covered the young man’s slender body.
Yin Yi’s gentle voice sounded, like an elegant gentleman, “Old friend, we finally meet again.”
Shi Ji nodded slightly, “Sorry for the wait.”
He looked at Xie Chen with sharp and cold eyes.
Xie Chen held up the wrist that was broken at a strange angle, and looked at Shi Ji in unbearable pain, “Shi Ji you——”
When he saw the God of War wrapped in the 5S mecha, his voice froze.
The earth is shaking because of a man.
That man had traveled across the eight galaxies and wiped out all outsiders who attempted to invade the empire.
Special military honors were piled high at his feet, and the highest honor in the empire would always belong to only one person.
Xie Chen’s anger suddenly stopped, and he even subconsciously wanted to retreat.
The elder’s warning echoed in his mind: Achen, never become an enemy of Shiji.
“Thank you, sir, but things are different now.”
The man standing on the top of the mountain is cold, handsome and powerful. He has the power to destroy everything, but he only wants to protect the people he wants to protect.
“From the moment you attacked the people of the Empire, we were destined to be enemies.”
“So I could never–”
Like you.
This setting was never established.
The only person Shi Ji felt guilty about in his life was that person who gave him the world’s top weapon and led him to the side of His Royal Highness the Crown Prince.
He overthrew his empire with his own hands.
The man sat on a lonely throne, without a single believer under his feet. Shi Ji half-knelt in front of him, holding a long sword in his hand, “Your Majesty, I’m sorry.”
The long sword is the Crown Prince’s favorite, and his choice is obvious.
The silver-haired emperor looked at him with gentle eyes, “Don’t apologize to me, I was the one who sent you to Achen. If you betray him at this time, then I have misjudged you.”
Shi Ji half-knelt in the hall, lowering his eyes in silence.
He said in a cold voice, “Rather than waiting for the ministers to overthrow the emperor and the palace to be flooded with blood, it is better to take the initiative and make His Royal Highness the Crown Prince the new emperor.”
Shi Ji will always protect the imperial family.
He was not good at comforting people, but just said softly, “Aren’t you tired of all the disputes? Why don’t you concentrate on building mechas and spend your remaining years with the queen?”
The late emperor said nothing, but looked at him tenderly and sadly.
Shi Ji couldn’t understand his gaze at that time.
Perhaps the late emperor realized from that time that he had made a wrong decision, but it was too late to undo it.
Since that meeting, Shi Ji never saw the late emperor again.
“You killed the late emperor, didn’t you?”
Xie Chen healed the broken bone with a snap, and looked at him coldly with sweat on his face.
He only uttered three words, “He deserves to die.”
Shi Ji closed his eyes silently and clenched the silver sword in his hand.
“How many things have you done behind my back, Xie Chen?”
Is this what it feels like to have your faith collapsed?
Are the people of the empire, who have been refined by pain, as sad as he is?
It seemed like the long-standing deception had no end. After being injured by his own hands, Xie Chen even felt relieved. “A lot.”
“Imperial Major General Gu Muzhi, haven’t you been secretly investigating the cause of his death?”
The fox tears on Shi Ji’s chest felt slightly hot.
“He came to me at that time and said he wanted his book of faith back.”
Xie Chen seemed to be lost in his memories. The handsome and tall major general knelt on the ground and made a decision after careful consideration.
“Your Majesty, I’m sorry, I want to get my book of faith back.”
“I cannot fight for the Empire my whole life. I want to spend ten years of my limited precious life with… the people I love.”
Even though he is already gray-haired by then, the fox is still young and beautiful.
Even though the fox had long looked down on himself in his twilight years, at least Gu Muzhi could love him openly.
He is worthy of his ancestors and the empire, and he will fight for the empire all his life.
At the same time, he also loves someone deeply.
He couldn’t let go, so he could only kneel down, kowtow to the emperor and pray to him.
“I hope you can help me.”
But what he waited for was a blood mist rising into the sky that enveloped his body, tearing at his proud talent and merging it into the dangerous blood mist in Xie Chen’s palm.
“Those who betray the Empire are useless.”
Xie Chen wanted to use Gu Muzhi for his own purposes.
He didn’t expect Gu Muzhi to be able to resist, and even looked at him angrily, “Your Majesty, what are you doing?!”
The upright major general seemed to have seen through Xie Chen’s true nature and turned around to seek help from his master.
He didn’t know who the master would choose when the choice between His Majesty and his disciple was presented.
He only remembered the words that made him feel safe.
“You are my apprentice, can’t I protect you?”
“Stop!!!” Xie Chen didn’t expect that he would fail. Gu Muzhi’s talent is stronger than those people. Doesn’t it mean that if he refines himself, his talent will be greatly improved?
“Lowell!”
The hypnotic purple mist instantly enveloped the major general’s body. His eyes were dazed for a moment, and his last thought in his blurred consciousness was.
Master, the empire is in danger.
He attempted to assassinate the emperor in public, but was killed by Xie Chen on the spot, and blood was splattered on the ground.
The pride of the third galaxy fell.
The moment he fell, he murmured, “Xianxian… Master…”
What should I do? I can’t protect you anymore.
The tears on Shi Ji’s chest were burning red, and Fox screamed hysterically in his tears, “Ah——!!!”
The fox did not want to use Shi Ji’s blood, so he could only use his own heart blood and Shi Ji’s breath to nourish Gu Muzhi for a long time. Most of the time, he fell asleep and unconscious in tears, quietly guarding his major general.
Until the three words “Gu Muzhi” appeared in Xie Chen’s mouth.
He woke up.
A crimson figure leaped out of nowhere, opened its five sharp claws and tore at Xie Chen’s neck, “Xie, Chen!!!”
“I’m going to… kill you!”
His major general, his major general… why was he treated like this.
Xie Chen didn’t expect that Su Xian was still there, but he was not afraid of a mere 3S-level monster.
Not to mention that the fox was already scarred and had lost its tail and eyes.
Not even as good as a 2S monster.
A 4S-level golden unicorn sword appeared from behind Xie Chen, and a thick blood mist enveloped his platinum body, instantly knocking the fox away.
The sharp blade chopped off the fox’s head, “Do you miss him? I’ll take you to see him.”
“stop!”
The moment the blade fell, the silver sword blocked it in the air, and a sharp sound was made when they collided.
“Ding!”
Sparks flew wildly between the long swords, and the silver-winged blade slashed across the golden unicorn. The powerful pressure instantly knocked him away.
Shi Ji took a step forward with the silver wing in his backhand, and pointed the sharp sword directly at Xie Chen’s throat, “Your opponent is me.”
It was like traveling across time and space and returning to their first trial in the back garden.
The fox hated his own incompetence and curled up on the ground crying.
An eye without an eyeball, with bright red tears flowing out.
Shi Ji did not show how angry he was, and spoke in an almost calm voice.
“Xie Chen, this is the last match I will practice with you.”
