Tian Xin was unaware of any of this; she simply channeled her meager combat power into Luke, because she genuinely believed that Luke was exhausted.
Tian Hongguang, who was standing to the side, felt that something was not quite right, but he was even more shocked by something else.
My older sister actually has a combat power index, and she doesn't seem weak at all, with at least 6,800 points.
Indeed, after witnessing Tian Hongguang's suffering, Tian Xin's combat power index increased by another 300 points due to her emotional state.
Tian Hongguang was naturally shocked. If he remembered correctly, before his accident, his sister was just a Muggle. Now, only a few years later, she has a combat power index of 6,800 points, which would be in the top ten on the KO list.
As expected of my older sister, she has such great talent. In just a few years, she has awakened her combat power and cultivated to such a level.
If Tian Hongguang knew that his older sister had only awakened her combat power a few days ago, he would probably be even more shocked.
"Wow, Luke, are you alright?"
When the music stopped, Wang Dadong and his friends rushed in. They had been waiting outside just in case.
However, things progressed unexpectedly smoothly, and no one or any demons came out to cause trouble from beginning to end.
Upon entering, Wang Dadong saw Luke collapsed in his arms, receiving combat power from Tian Xin, and immediately walked over with concern.
"Class teacher, let me do it. Your combat power index is not high enough."
Just as Wang Dadong was about to step forward to replace Tian Xin, he saw Luke quickly stand up, glaring at Wang Dadong through gritted teeth.
"No need, I'm doing fine now, thank you so much, cousin!"
Luke's words were filled with resentment, and Wang Dadong immediately felt a chill run down his spine.
Strictly speaking, Wang Dadong is indeed Luke's cousin, although they aren't that much older.
However, from childhood to adulthood, Luke has called Wang Dadong "cousin" very rarely.
However, every time he shouted like that, Wang Dadong would always run into big trouble.
In one of the most serious incidents, Wang Dadong was beaten by Wang Tianyang and Zeng Meihua, a husband-and-wife team.
Wang Dadong was a bit confused and even at a loss, completely unaware of why Luke was angry.
But Tian Hongguang was furious. Unlike Wang Dadong, who had low emotional intelligence and IQ, he was very smart. He could easily see what Luke was up to.
You saved me, and I'm very grateful to you. We can be brothers and friends, that's all fine.
But you actually want to be my brother-in-law? How can I tolerate that?
"you……"
However, before Tian Hongguang could finish speaking, Luke stood up, took out Requiem, and said in a serious tone.
"Alright, now it's time to move on to the next step. After listening to this requiem, your combat power will be restored."
"Da Dong, Arthur, and Xiao Yu, you and the East City Guards continue to protect the area outside. The Soul Cleansing Song must have alerted quite a few demons. The Requiem Song's performance is crucial and must not be disturbed."
Wang Dadong, Wang Yase, Ding Xiaoyu, and the Dongcheng Guards nodded and went out to protect the four sides.
Tian Xin stood aside, watching all of this with a sense of peace.
Chapter 175: The Final Chapter: Tian Hongguang Recovers
Having experienced so much in just a few days, Tian Xin has finally come to terms with it.
It's true that you should hate violence, but that doesn't mean you should give up your own abilities.
Having no sword in hand and having a sword but not using it are two completely different things.
Luke unfolded the Requiem score, his fingers lightly strumming the strings. The melodious music drifted through the night sky, like moonlight falling, pure and sacred.
Every note contained boundless energy, flowing into Tian Hongguang's body and cleansing it. The fighting power that had been temporarily washed away by the Requiem was slowly recovering under the guidance of this soothing melody.
A look of relief appeared on Tian Hongguang's face; he could feel his power returning.
He looked at Luke, his eyes filled with gratitude. Luke simply smiled slightly, focusing intently on his playing. He knew this moment was crucial and he couldn't afford to be distracted.
However, at that moment, a series of hurried footsteps and heavy breathing broke the silence of the night.
Black Dragon and the four great martial corpses arrived as promised, their bodies radiating a heavy demonic aura. They confronted Wang Da Dong and the East City Guards, instantly creating a tense and oppressive atmosphere.
Black Dragon's eyes flashed with venomous light as he stared intently at Tian Hongguang and Luke, as if he wanted to devour them alive.
The four martial corpses stood like four cold statues behind the black dragon, ready to launch an attack at any moment.
Wang Dadong and his men were no pushovers either. Faced with the threat from the Black Dragon, they gripped their weapons tightly, their fighting spirit high.
The members of Dongchengwei quickly took their positions, turning their musical instruments into weapons. They knew that the battle ahead would be extremely difficult, but they would never back down.
Luke seemed unaffected by the outside world; his fingers danced across the strings, each note precise and powerful.
The power of the Requiem continued to circulate within Tian Hongguang's body, and his combat strength was recovering at a visible rate.
Tian Xin stood aside, watching all of this nervously.
"What kind of music is this? It's incredibly powerful!"
The more Black Dragon listened, the more alarmed he became. Although the Requiem did not have a special effect on demonic nature like the Soul Cleansing Song, its power was undoubtedly also aimed at demons.
After listening to the Soul Cleansing Song, one's demonic nature will be washed away, and one will lose the ability to fight. However, this is just the demonic nature's resistance against being washed away, which can be considered as the demon harming people.
The effect of the Requiem is to smooth out this damage, allowing the supernatural beings who have been harmed by the demonic forces to return to normal.
After listening to the requiem, the black dragon felt that although his demonic nature had not been reduced, it had inexplicably become much quieter.
This was unacceptable to the Black Dragon; why should he pursue the realm of becoming a demon?
Is it just so that he can turn his back on his family and become a member of the demon realm?
Of course not. The Black Dragon's essence is to become stronger. As long as it can become stronger, let alone become a demon, any other method will do!
But now this strange music, which seems to have come from nowhere, is actually affecting his power. How can the Black Dragon tolerate this?
"Prepare for war!"
The pressure from the black dragon instantly activated Wang Da Dong's "the stronger the opponent, the stronger the body" physique, causing his combat power index to soar to over 11,000 points. Red light shone brightly on the dragon-patterned grill, and his muscles tensed up.
Wang Yase also took out his sword in the stone, which flashed with blue light. Ding Xiaoyu's left fist glowed with yellow light, while her right fist was placed in her sleeve, ready to strike.
Meanwhile, Huyan Jueluo Xiu, Jie, Ming, and Deng each took their instruments and prepared to make their move.
This is, after all, the Gold Dimension, not their home ground. However, the East City Guard's greatest strength is not in direct confrontation, but in support. Their music can weaken the enemy's power and amplify their own.
With a wave of his hand, Heilong summoned his four great martial corpses—Destruction, Darkness, Poison, and Nothingness—to charge towards Wang Dadong and his group.
The war drums thundered, and the four martial corpses, radiating fierce demonic energy, swept in like a black storm.
Their initial target was not Wang Dadong, Wang Yase, and Ding Xiaoyu, but rather the music defense line of Dongchengwei.
The members of Dongchengwei quickly adjusted their formation, their musical instruments acting as shields for the warriors, together forming an invisible barrier.
The musical energy surged forward like a tidal wave, colliding violently with the demonic energy emanating from the four martial corpses, producing a series of deep rumbles.
The three guards from the East City Guard, Jie, Ming, and Deng, seemed to bring their musical instruments to life. As the notes danced, they transformed into invisible blades, slicing through the demonic energy surrounding the four martial corpses.
The originally arrogant and domineering demonic energy began to dissipate rapidly under the influence of the music's energy, as if it had encountered a natural enemy and could not stand.
·· ·Requesting flowers··· ···
The East City Guards are veterans at exorcising demons, having fought countless battles on the battlefield between good and evil. They are extremely familiar with demonic creatures like the Martial Corpse.
The four martial corpses' expressions instantly turned extremely ugly. Their combat power became unstable under the impact of this force, sometimes rising and sometimes falling, like candles flickering in the wind, on the verge of being extinguished.
The music of Dong Cheng Wei not only serves a supporting role, but is also a form of invisible attack.
The sound waves pierced through the demonic energy, directly impacting the depths of the four martial corpses' souls, causing them unprecedented fear and chaos.
This fear does not stem from external threats, but rather from a deep-seated inner turmoil.
Demonic energy is the source of their power, but it is also a mental shackle.
The music of Dongchengwei was like a key, unlocking the shackles and causing the demonic nature of the four martial corpses to begin to backfire on themselves.
Upon seeing this, a hint of shock and anger flashed in Black Dragon's eyes. He had not expected that the music of the East City Guard would be so powerful.
He knew that if he couldn't quickly deal with the East City Guard, the fighting power of the four great martial corpses would be greatly reduced.
He brandished the demonic energy in his hand, transforming it into powerful demonic light, and with a roar, personally charged towards the East City Guard.
Seeing this, Wang Dadong and his men immediately prepared to support the East City Guard. However, their enemies were not to be underestimated either; although the four martial corpses were affected by the music, their strength was still considerable.
Wang Dadong brandished his dragon-patterned ao, Wang Yase's sword in the stone gleamed with blue light, Ding Xiaoyu's left fist was like a tiger unleashed from its cage, and Huyan Jueluo Xiu, Jie, Ming, and Deng played even more exciting music on their instruments to support their comrades.
"Hmph, don't think you can stop Black Dragon's advance!" Black Dragon snorted coldly, his figure suddenly accelerating as he charged towards the East City Guard.
His hands moved rapidly, forming hand seals, and amidst the swirling demonic energy, he prepared to unleash an even more powerful demonic technique.
However, at that moment, Tian Hongguang appeared in front of the black dragon like a ghost, his eyes flashing with a determined light, his combat power index having recovered to its peak.
"Black Dragon, your end has come!"
Tian Hongguang said coldly, his tone filled with an undeniable determination.
Chapter 176: The Final Chapter: Mind Control Technique - Ura Baha
Tian Hongguang's combat power index began to soar, rising to 19000 points. However, he no longer possessed the demonic energy he had when he was a martial corpse. Instead, he exuded a pure killing intent, a murderous desire to kill the Black Dragon, the culprit who had turned him into a martial corpse.
This murderous aura was so tangible that it froze the surrounding air. Even the four great martial corpses involuntarily stopped in their tracks, their faces showing fear.
Although the miasma of neither life nor death on Tian Hongguang's body had been completely cleared, he was once a martial corpse with the code name "Zun," meaning the supreme among martial corpses. The four great martial corpses were all below him and had a natural fear of him.
Black Dragon's pupils suddenly contracted; he never expected that Tian Hongguang's combat strength would recover to such a level.
He secretly regretted that if he had known this would happen, he should have completely destroyed Tian Hong's "567" light will and made him his puppet forever.
But it was too late to say anything now. Tian Hongguang was already standing in front of him, his eyes like cold stars, staring straight into his soul.
"You dare betray me!" the black dragon roared, demonic energy surging around him, attempting to overwhelm his opponent with its aura.
But Tian Hongguang remained unmoved, a cold smile playing on his lips: "Betrayal? You've never earned my loyalty. Today, I will seek justice for myself and for all those who have suffered because of you!"
Before he finished speaking, Tian Hongguang flashed forward and pounced on the black dragon like lightning.
His punches whistled through the air, carrying overwhelming power, aimed straight for the Black Dragon's vitals.
When he threw that punch, Tian Hongguang's combat power index had already exceeded 22,000 points.
Although the miasma of neither life nor death on Tian Hongguang's body has been cleared, the training and progress he received as a martial corpse will not be erased.
