"Look at what you have done!" Justitia's expression became extremely ugly. She could already smell the lingering smell of blood in the air from the downwind.
There was a considerable distance between them, but the smell of blood was still strong. One could imagine how many people had died there, and Justitia could tell that it was the blood of the gods.
Fan Meinan and Shen Xixi looked at each other, and their gazes sank. There was no doubt that something had changed on Zhang Heng's side. Unlike Justitia, the two of them did not know who the bloody smell belonged to. However, looking at the Goddess of Justice's current state, this bloody smell should not have come from Zhang Heng.
However, the two of them were still not happy because they were considered to be close to Zhang Heng. Although they did not know the limits of Zhang Heng's combat power, as a mortal, it was obviously difficult for him to resist the siege of so many gods with his own strength, let alone counterattack.
But now, the almost solidified smell of blood in the air showed that something had indeed happened. However, this result was also not what Fan Meinan and Shen Xixi wanted.
The two put away the weapons in their hands, and Justitia did not take this opportunity to attack them again. Now that things had come to this, there was no reason for the battle to continue.
The Goddess of Justice's mind was no longer on this matter. She did not even reprimand Shen Xixi. Instead, she glanced at her student with great disappointment. No one knew what kind of emotions were flashing through her eyes, which were covered with cloth. After that, she hurriedly left through the path that the two women had opened up for her.
After a while, Fan Meinan spoke again, "Now, what are we going to do?"
"I don't know." Shen Xixi shook her head.
Rabbit and Li Bai had always been the main members of Shen Xixi's team, but it was rare to see Shen Xixi like this. Her body language was full of frustration, and there was a rare look of confusion on her face. Obviously, she meant it from the bottom of her heart when she said that she did not know.
After a pause, Shen Xixi seemed to be asking the others, but it also seemed like she was asking herself, "Did we … really do something wrong?"
Fan Meinan was about to leave, but when she heard this question, she stopped. "I thought you had already thought about all the possible outcomes when you came to me."
"What about you?" Shen Xixi asked, "I remember you saying that you have parents, a younger brother, and an older sister. Don't you regret what you did tonight?"
"I don't regret it." Fan Meinan waved her hand without hesitation.
"Why? Because those people are not as important as him in your heart?"
"No, because I trust him enough. It's that simple." Fan Meinan's body was a little better than when she was hospitalized, but she was still a little weak. However, after the doctor announced that she had recovered, she quickly returned to her previous carefree appearance. "I believe in him. I believe that he will not destroy the world, even at the last moment. And most importantly, I believe that he will always have a way to turn defeat into victory, just like he has done countless times before."
Shen Xixi, on the other hand, was the more rational side. "I have also checked a lot of information. If the thing in the city under the ice really took over his body, then his soul has been completely destroyed. There is no way for him to recover. In other words, he … is dead. How can a dead person turn defeat into victory?"
"So, you regret it?"
"I am not afraid of death, but I can't accept that … because of my decision, the whole world will be destroyed," Shen Xixi said with a sad look.
"Very well, then do something to stop the world from being destroyed," Fan Meinan said. Fan Meinan said, "Do what Shen Xixi is supposed to do. Don't worry about what that guy thinks. He will be able to predict your reaction after it happens. Maybe he's waiting for you to do this."
"What about you?" Shen Xixi asked.
"I … I have to continue to maintain my stupid and blind optimism," Fan Meinan said. "I probably can't help much tonight. Next, I plan to go out, find a hotel, take a shower, and go to bed."
Shen Xixi still looked a little depressed, but she still reached out her hand. "Anyway, thank you for helping me tonight."
"You're welcome. I was planning to come anyway, but I haven't figured out what to do yet. Since you've invited me, I have no reason to refuse." Meinan smiled and walked down the mountain after saying that.
Shen Xixi watched her figure disappear at the end of the road, then turned her head to look at Rabbit and Li Bai. "You are my teammates and my friends. I am very grateful that you are willing to stand with me even at this time. Thank you for your trust in me, but what I am going to do next is very dangerous. Whether it is from the perspective of a captain or a friend, I don't want you to follow me anymore."
Li Bai didn't think much of it. "Isn't it just …"
He only managed to spit out one word before Rabbit covered his mouth. The latter held her forehead with her other hand. "Oh my God, do you never bring your brain with you? That guy has probably escaped from the bottom of the sea. If you dare to say its name, it will definitely notice you. Even if you want to die, don't drag us down with you."
"Is it that scary?" Li Bai was still skeptical. "I bought a book a few days ago and read a few stories in it. I didn't find it scary at all. Instead, I felt drowsy. To be honest, the writing is too boring."
"You ignorant and incompetent guy. Don't you feel drowsy no matter what you read?" Rabbit rolled her eyes and then said to Shen Xixi seriously, "I have parents and friends. Whether online or offline, I don't want anything to happen to them. So, Sister Xixi, if you want to chase after him, then I want to go with you. Not for anything else, but to protect the people I want to protect."
"Yes, I'm not good with words." Li Bai touched the red fur on his head and said, "Rabbit said what I wanted to say. Anyway, no matter what happens, we will be with you."
Shen Xixi didn't say anything when she heard that. She nodded and said, "Well, let's go to the place where the smell of blood came from and see if we can find anything."
