Chapter 256: Our Little Nan
Moments later, she slowly stood up.
Her deep, dark eyes gazed at the sky, lost in thought.
Qiye actually managed to stop that giant beast. Wen Qimo spoke in shock; what on earth had happened to him?
I don’t know. Chen Muye shook his head, his expression extremely grave, but… unimaginable power always comes with an unimaginable price.
At that moment, Hong Ying turned her head in confusion.
Where is Leng Xuan?
He must be lying on some rooftop again, watching the battlefield alone with a telescope, Wen Qimo said uncertainly, after all, he was most concerned about Lin Qiye’s situation.
Xiao Nan, Xiao Nan?
Hong Ying turned her head and looked at Si Xiaonan, who was standing alone behind the crowd, suddenly taken aback.
Si Xiaonan’s aura seemed different from before.
Si Xiaonan withdrew her gaze from the sky, sweeping over the crowd before slowly raising her right hand…
Buzz—!!
A powerful pressure erupted, instantly suppressing the other members of Team 136. At the same time, a chilling aura emanated from her body, invisibly locking down the mental powers of the others.
Even Chen Muye was no exception.
She is Klein.
Under this terrifying pressure, the members of Team 136 found it impossible to move. They stared at Si Xiaonan in shock, their eyes filled with disbelief.
…Xiao Nan? Hong Ying gritted her teeth, staring at Si Xiaonan, her eyes full of confusion.
Xiao Nan… Chen Muye’s brows furrowed slightly. Is this mental control?
You fool. Wu Xiangnan spoke in a deep voice; mental control wouldn’t suddenly grant someone the power of Klein.
He was right.
Si Xiaonan stepped forward, the terrifying pressure continuing to release. I was never a Night Watchman; all the documents from when I joined the team two years ago were fake.
Si Xiaonan… doesn’t exist at all.
She stood in front of Chen Muye and slowly spoke: I am the agent… of the trickster god Loki.
As the last word fell, the air fell into a dead silence.
I’m sorry. Si Xiaonan spoke calmly, [Shiva’s Grudge], I must take it away.
After saying that, a cold light erupted in her eyes, and everyone felt as if a giant hammer had struck their minds, instantly losing consciousness.
Si Xiaonan bent down and pulled the parchment from Chen Muye’s chest. With the suppression of the Yama Temple gone, the aura of this artifact immediately leaked out, exuding a terrifying destructive power.
This… is [Shiva’s Grudge]? Si Xiaonan murmured.
…
Tap, tap, tap…
Footsteps echoed in the corridor as Si Xiaonan, holding the parchment, expressionless, walked into the office from the top floor.
Ding dong—!
Welcome!
Si Xiaonan frowned and turned to look at the door.
A man in a black trench coat stood at the entrance, silently watching her, his eyes filled with complex emotions.
Leng Xuan. Si Xiaonan said淡淡, you are just an ordinary person; don’t try to stop me.
Xiao Nan… Leng Xuan spoke hoarsely, why are you doing this?
I am the agent of the trickster god; deception and lies are my specialties. I came to Cangnan to uncover its secrets and to find the whereabouts of [Shiva’s Grudge]. Si Xiaonan said calmly,
The Si Xiaonan you know from Team 136 is all a disguise; it was all fake. I deceived you, I used you!
Is this answer… satisfactory to you?
Leng Xuan looked into her eyes and shook his head. You’re lying.
Si Xiaonan’s brows furrowed slightly.
If it was just about using and deceiving… then why did you deliberately keep your distance from us? Leng Xuan said slowly. You always shut yourself off, remaining silent, deliberately lowering your presence in both life and missions.
During team-building activities, you always sat alone, quietly watching us from a distance, your eyes filled with longing, yet you didn’t dare to approach.
Even when Zhao Kongcheng was buried, you didn’t attend.
Why?
If you were trying to gather intelligence and get close to the captain, you should have made every effort to build a good relationship with us.
Si Xiaonan’s lips pressed together, unable to meet Leng Xuan’s gaze.
And Leng Xuan took a step closer, looking at Si Xiaonan:
Because you are afraid.
You fear that if you get too deeply involved with us, when that day comes… you will soften your heart.
Because… you have already fallen in love with this place, haven’t you?
Shut up! Si Xiaonan suddenly spoke, glaring at Leng Xuan, a powerful pressure suddenly descending!
Leng Xuan grunted, his body slammed to the ground by the pressure, his face pale, a trickle of blood seeping from the corner of his mouth.
Si Xiaonan tightly gripped the parchment in her hand, sidestepping past the prostrate Leng Xuan, pursing her lips as she quickly walked toward the office exit.
Leng Xuan struggled to support himself with his arms, turning to look at the gradually departing Si Xiaonan, a slight smile appearing at the corner of his mouth.
You see, even at this point, you still haven’t killed me.
Si Xiaonan paused at the door.
Perhaps in the entire Team 136, only I truly understand you… because no detail escapes my eyes. Leng Xuan pushed himself up, his voice gradually softening:
No matter who you were before, in these two years in Cangnan… you are Si Xiaonan.
The Si Xiaonan of Team 136.
Our Xiao Nan… has always been a good child.
Si Xiaonan’s pupils suddenly constricted.
She turned sharply, her reddened eyes fixed on Leng Xuan, her chest heaving violently.
Leng Xuan, do you really think… I wouldn’t dare to kill you?!
A terrifying pressure enveloped Leng Xuan’s body, rendering him unable to move an inch. A ghostly light flickered in Si Xiaonan’s palm as she stepped closer to Leng Xuan.
Swish—!!
A flicker of ghostly light flashed, blood splattered, and a severed arm flew through the air.
Leng Xuan’s face instantly turned pale, the excruciating pain causing his features to contort. He opened his mouth, seemingly unable to suppress a scream, but he forced himself to hold it back.
The ghostly light flickered, the splattering blood gradually decreased, finally stopping completely.
Si Xiaonan’s gaze lingered on Leng Xuan’s face for a moment before she turned to leave.
Do not try to stop me again, or… next time, I will truly take your life.
She had just taken a step forward when Leng Xuan followed suit.
Si Xiaonan spun around like lightning, a finger pointing at Leng Xuan’s chest!
Bang—!!
A crisp explosion echoed in the office as a small iron box shattered against Leng Xuan’s chest, followed by photographs scattering like butterflies in the air.
Si Xiaonan stood frozen.
