Night Cang and Feng Lei were chatting...

Suddenly, the room filled with a dreamlike starmap, shimmering reflections, and the clear light of sunken stars.

Night Cang stood up, signaling Feng Lei and telling Ying Ning not to be nervous, "It's the Star Mother. The Star Mother has arrived."

Feng Lei couldn't believe it and questioned, "Friend, you can't be bragging, can you? How could the Star Mother possibly come here?"

As soon as he finished speaking, the Star Mother appeared before the three of them like moonlit fireflies in an instant.

"Night Cang, a major event has occurred..."

Night Cang quickly asked, "Star Mother, what is it?"

The Star Mother didn't have time to greet Ying Ning and Feng Lei, and hurriedly said, "The mercenary organizations from the major nebulae, on their way back after the meeting at the Temporal Fortress, were all captured by the Mo Shi Qi Huang (Doomsday Sad Emperor). Now, everyone is imprisoned in the Illusory Marsh Nebula."

Hearing "everyone," Night Cang suddenly felt a bit suffocated and quickly asked, "Star Mother, what about Xi Er and Luke?"

The Star Mother replied, "Luke and Xi Er are also imprisoned in the Illusory Marsh Nebula. So...the only option now is for you few to go and rescue them."

The three prepared themselves and arrived at the Illusory Marsh Nebula through temporal teleportation.

Night Cang and the others looked around, finally understanding why it was called the Illusory Marsh Nebula.

Before them was a vast, endless marshland, shrouded in a gray mist.

In the thick clouds, indistinct, crooked thickets of shrubs were hidden.

In the foul-smelling marsh, a large amount of green algae floated, long and slender, deep green, and emitting a slightly fishy, damp odor.

Feng Lei couldn't hold it in any longer and spat a few times.

"Damn it! Friend, I really can't take it anymore...this Illusory Marsh Nebula is really something else!"

Night Cang was a little puzzled. "Everyone, we...although we've arrived at the Illusory Marsh Nebula, where should we go to rescue people? It's all marshland as far as the eye can see, and the surroundings are dead silent."

Feng Lei gently patted Night Cang. "Brother, I have a way to find them."

After speaking, Feng Lei roared, his body enveloped in Lei Xi (thunder aura), Lei Xian (thunder strings) snapped, Lei Xi (thunder aura) thundered, a Thunder God descending to the mortal world.

Night Cang couldn't help but marvel inwardly, "Feng Lei's Lei Xi (thunder aura) power is indeed domineering. Before encountering the Dragon God, he controlled the power of Lei Xian (thunder strings). And now, with the Lei Xi (thunder aura) surrounding him, it's as if the Thunder God has descended, shaking the firmament."

Just as Night Cang was pondering, Feng Lei said, "Found them! Brother, follow me!"

Night Cang and Ying Ning followed.

Suddenly! A giant toad emerged from the depths of the marsh, blocking the three's path.

Night Cang looked up and saw that the giant toad was a full three meters tall, with two heads and four eyes, and its back was covered with dense, numerous pustules.

These dense, large pustules were like enzyme liquid bombs, smashing towards the three.

Night Cang, who already had trypophobia, had goosebumps erupt all over his body after seeing this scene.

"Damn it! This big monster is really disgusting."

Just then, Night Cang, seemingly distracted, was splashed by the enzyme liquid from the giant toad's projectiles, which corroded his trouser leg.

Instantly, the cloth of his trouser leg was completely corroded.

Night Cang quickly said, "Everyone, be careful! The enzyme liquid sprayed by this giant toad has a corrosive effect."

Immediately, Night Cang transformed into his Xing Hen (Star Mark) state, countless specks of starlight slowly drifting down, as dazzling as stars, as peaceful and gentle as the night sky.

In order to rescue the trapped hostages, Night Cang immediately used the domain-reading power of Zero Domain, freezing the giant toad in time.

Instantly, the giant toad faded from a blue-gray color to a gray-white hue, and the enzyme liquid projectiles shot by the giant toad were also frozen in time by Night Cang's domain reading.

Night Cang shouted, "Feng Lei, Ying Ning, leave this guy to me. You guys go and rescue the people quickly!"

"Okay! Night Cang, be careful!" With that, Ying Ning and Feng Lei continued to sprint towards the hostages' location.

After three seconds, Night Cang's domain-reading power disappeared, and the giant toad immediately returned to its original color.

Night Cang thought, "The domain-reading power can freeze the opponent's time for three seconds. The cooldown time for each activation of the domain-reading power is also three seconds. This is the first time I've encountered such a big guy."

Just as Night Cang was at a loss, not knowing how to deal with this giant toad.

He suddenly heard a mournful sound in his ears... "It's the sound of a weapon. Could there be other people here?" Night Cang guessed.

Suddenly, leaves fell with the wind, and red leaves danced.

Fallen leaves fly red across the ground, a ground of red frost in the end broken hearted.

Night Cang looked up and saw a young woman standing on a tree branch with a katana in her hand. This person was none other than A Xue, whom Luke longed for day and night. The katana in her hand was called Wulei (Tearless).

Her skin was as white as snow, and her face was comparable to a celestial maiden in a fairy palace. She wore a short vest as her top, and her abdominal muscles were faintly visible between her breaths.

The tassels of the weapon in her hand rippled in the wind with mournful cries. It turned out that the mournful sound just now came from this Tearless blade.

Night Cang was already clueless on how to deal with this behemoth. Now, a mysterious girl had suddenly appeared, which made him even more anxious.

"May I ask, miss, are you friend or foe?" Night Cang tentatively asked.

The girl remained aloof and silent.

Suddenly! A bone-chilling cold light flashed, like the icy waves of ten miles in the dead of winter.

By the time Night Cang came back to his senses, the two-headed toad had already been vertically cut in two.

Night Cang exclaimed, "Damn it! So amazing! One-hit kill! I... I'm the male lead, how can someone be like the male lead, able to instantly kill upon appearance?"

While Night Cang was still in a daze and complaining, A Xue walked forward without looking back, following the traces left by Feng Lei.

Night Cang looked at A Xue's retreating figure, like a whirlwind, with a hint of helplessness, a hint of loneliness.

This faint sadness made Night Cang feel an unspeakable sadness and a inexplicable grief in his heart.

The sky gradually turned cold, the red leaves withered and yellowed, the lights dimmed sadly, and grief was disguised as armor.

Night Cang hurriedly chased after her, "Ah... that, miss. Have we met somewhere before? You look very familiar to me."

A Xue remained aloof, ignoring Night Cang and striding forward.

Seeing that A Xue didn't say a word, Night Cang continued to ask, "My name is Night Cang, may I ask for the lady's esteemed name?"

A Xue retorted, "You can't even kill a toad, and you want to defeat Lao?"

Night Cang exclaimed, "Damn it! I knew it, we must have met somewhere before. But I don't seem to remember where we met."

A Xue asked again, "Was Luke captured?"

Night Cang said, "That's right, not only Luke, but also Xi Er and many mercenaries were captured here."

That's right, A Xue knew that Luke and the mercenary organizations in the major nebulae had all been captured.

And the main purpose of her trip was to rescue her beloved - Luke.

When A Xue saw Night Cang facing a toad, she felt angry and annoyed.

"You can't even handle a toad, and you want to learn how to save people..."

A Xue glanced at Night Cang, "When I rescue people later, don't hold me back..."
