Even after being pierced through the heart, Feng Mei felt nothing. Upon seeing this, the orcs fearfully backed off, and the orcs actually hastily ran away. Since the dawn of time, creatures feared the unknown. In the eyes of mortals, the scene was inexplicable.
Still bewildered, Feng Mei was confused. A short while later, a familiar voice resounded in her head, "This is the Ancient Dragon Manual. A heaven-defying technique that I've picked up along the way. Train and become strong, Little Sister. The vital Qi that I left inside your body will guide you throughout this difficult journey. It will be hard, but I know you can do it."
For Feng Mei, the world seemed to freeze. The gentle voice sighed, "Little Sister, I couldn't put this into words at the time. I was in an utter mess. But know this, more than anything in the world, I love you. Big Brother has something to accomplish, so I can't accompany you anymore. You're strong; I know it."
Reaching the final sentence, the gentle voice softly chuckled with evident pride, "There's no need to hide from family. My cute little grown-up sister… be responsible and make Big Brother and Mother proud."
"Bro…" Feng Mei felt tears burning in her eyes, and she tried to control herself, but she was too emotional. Hearing her elder brother's usual gentle voice, she subconsciously knew… that he had not abandoned her. Instead, he cared about her more than anything in the world.
Turning her attention back to her best friend, Feng Mei had a beautiful smile.
"Sister Mei?" Nian Zhen watched her best friend in shock. The two of them had known each other for ages, but this was definitely the most beautiful smile she had ever seen on her friend.
"Big Brother, I understand your mindset. You're wrong, however. It's not your problem; it's our problem." Feng Mei reflectively thought.
Naturally, Feng Mei could discern the reason for her elder brother's departure. As close siblings, how could things be so hidden? Evidently, Feng Hui did not wish to drag her into 'his' mess.
One day, Feng Mei would prove to her elder brother that she was not just a liability; instead, she would fight side by side on equal terms with her brother to avenge their mother. Under this thought, her beautiful smile brightened even more.
Smiling at the round-faced senior, Feng Mei giggled, "Thanks, Brother Wang. That was really cool."
Wang Fang felt a stab in his heart, and he furiously blushed. Like a little girl, he giggled, "It was nothing."
Looking outside the building into the vast sky, Feng Mei shouted at the top of her lungs, "I'll leave no monsters alive! Just wait for me Bro… and Mom. One day, we'll reclaim Earth."
In the future, Feng Mei would fully live up to her potential, but this was a story for later.

Nighttime. Starryfu, a street inside a shopping district.
As her elder brother, Feng Hui knew his presence would restrict her growth. From childhood, his little sister had shown incredible signs of intelligence, but she would still act like a helpless child around him.
After his rebirth, this fact only became clearer. With his heightened senses, Feng Hui had easily discerned the falsehood behind his little sister's naivety. If he remained by her side, it would do more harm than good. In this world of death, nothing was certain.
Time flowed like water. Feng Hui felt his eyes watering. His little sister had grown up, but for some reason, she would not let him know this. Feng Mei was already an independent lady. Around him, however, she would always act like that helpless and spoilt little sister from childhood.
Feng Hui opened his eyes with a brilliant smile, "I knew it. Little Sister has grown up without me seeing. For a long time… she hasn't needed my protection."
With tears in his eyes, Feng Hui felt wistful. If only the apocalypse hadn't descended, their family would have had a happy ending.
Gazing at the starry skies, Feng Hui admired the beautiful night. The path he had to walk was incomparably clear now. With unparalleled speed, he would show the spellcaster the grave mistake he had committed.
To dare harm his family, Feng Hui would demonstrate the graveness of the spellcaster's crime.
Stopping his thought, Feng Hui smiled. Growing up, he only had his family. Naturally, he depended a lot on his little sister and vice versa. Sometimes, his love for them would lead to irrational decisions.
From now on, his little sister would not need his protection. Feng Hui had a complicated light in his starry eyes, but he still smiled. To see that his little sister had matured… It was a beautiful sight.
Closing his eyes, Feng Hui calmed his mind. Shortly later, all emotion vanished from his handsome face.
"Is everything fine?" Seeing the white-uniformed man stand up, Sun Yi hesitantly inquired.
"Yeah." The air was cold, and he was alone without his family, but Feng Hui thought, "The cold's worthless anyway."
"You can trust me, Brother Sun. This apocalypse is nothing to me." Feng Hui smiled.
Finally, Feng Hui's sky-reaching confidence as 'Emperor Feng' had returned in full force.
"I know." With complete faith, Sun Yi nodded.
Closing his eyes, Feng Hui scanned through the numerous domains surrounding them. With a grin, he thought, "I'll quickly reach my former peak… no, I'll rise above my former self, and I'll settle all debts."
Regarding the spellcaster, the intruder's death was certain. Feng Hui thought back to the Secret Legion, and he chuckled about his subordinates who were loyal to a fault, "Just wait. One day, I'll return with my little sister."
With a thought, Feng Hui donned a simple black robe. In a flash, his white uniform was replaced. Residing within his soul, this black robe was the signature outfit of the Secret Legion's hidden master. The simple black outfit contained numerous incantations that strengthened his body.
To the outsiders, Feng Hui had summoned a black robe out of thin air. For the survivors, their worship and bewilderment had increased to unimaginable heights.
"Damn him." Liu Jun's envy was also reaching new heights.
Previously, it was solely Sun Yi. Now, there was a Feng Hui too? Liu Jun cursed these two in his mind.
Wearing his black gloves, Feng Hui stared into the distance.
With no hesitation, Feng Hui started making his way toward a domain.
Suddenly, Feng Hui stopped, and he looked back at the red-haired Sun Yi.
With a smile, Feng Hui asked, "Coming?"
"Of course!" From the back, Sun Yi ran up, and he grinned.
Xie Na's family also followed the mysterious man, while Liu Jun's group tailed behind. Like that, with more than half the initial humans dead, the 'Team Battle Royale' had officially come to a close.
Feng Hui noticed the survivors following him, and he shook his head. Truthfully, he did not mind their attendance, but he would not shield them.
Time flowed like water.
Eventually, Feng Hui reached a domain located in the heart of an amusement park.
Entering the domain with Sun Yi, Feng Hui instantly felt the change in atmosphere.
