Lin Wan's finger hovered 0.1mm above the detonator. Global feeds split:
Left: Tokyo Bay demon island devouring bullet trains.
Right: Myanmar children building castles with malice crystals.
Shen Xuan clasped her wrist, implanting a chip. His body temperature plummeted with the code: [SHEN XUAN LIFE: 00:05:00]
"Choose, my Lady...savior or widow?" Gold shards glittered in his cough.
Jade shards stabbed the console! A hologram revealed:
Under the temple lay not a corpse array, but Heaven's Dao Server Farm. Zhou Yongnian screamed at a terminal: "We're just its antivirus program!"
A ticker flashed: [108th Civilization Reset: 00:03:17]
Lin Wan plunged a scalpel into her own heart! Golden blood erupted into data streams, blasting across Heaven's Dao screens:
if (user == "Lin Wan"):
override("Heaven_Dao")
The E-Pixiu expanded to cosmic scale! Its wormhole maw swallowed the server farm, nebulae churning into DNA strands in its belly.
As Zhou vanished into data streams, his hairpin shot toward Lin Wan: "Tell her...I volunteer as Patient Zero!"
The pixiu spat out two rings:
- Black: [RESET HEAVEN]
- White: [HUMAN-MALICE SYMBIOSIS]
Lin Wan pushed the black ring's button. Shen Xuan dissolved into golden light as reformatting beams swept Earth—
Tokyo's demon island collapsed into DisneySea. Malice crystals in Myanmar became candy.
At his grave, AI Shen's hologram touched her white hair: "Death is the ultimate dissection..."
As the white ring slid onto Shen Xuan's finger, a wormhole in his chest spewed malice spirits! Lin Wan stabbed the hairpin into her heart: "By Blood Pact!"
Spirits became neon over cities—NYC centipedes powered subways, Paris corpse-baby cradled the homeless.
Shen bit her golden tattoos: "Now you're bound to me...for eternity."
Three years later, Lin Wan stood atop the rebuilt Bureau.
*A-line: AI Shen taught the pixiu coding, screen flashing [109th Civilization Protection Activated]*
B-line: Shen hugged her from behind. Outside, malice spirits played soccer with children. His new tattoo glowed: "Name our Corpse King baby?"
