    Chapter 537: A Death Hymn for the Dark Order

    People were converging toward Wu Yue from all directions. She pulled out the latest crystal-core firearm developed by the Jiang family and, without hesitation, took out the Dark Order's shuttle maintenance crew, destroying the critical systems of the No. 2 engine and rendering it completely useless.

    As the engine exploded with a shower of sparks, countless guns were aimed at Wu Yue.

    Yali's eyes were sinister. "You're looking to die."

    Wu Yue's gaze swept over Yali's flushed cheeks, and she smiled gently.

    "He hit you? Was it because of me? I'm truly sorry."

    Yali sneered, "Don't play that game with me. I know your tricks all too well! Come with me!"

    Wu Yue obediently followed behind Yali without a word.

    Seeing her cunning and treacherous demeanor, Yali was extremely wary and guarded.

    Wu Yue could feel the hostile glares from the Dark Order members walking behind her. She slowly turned around.

    "What are you looking at? Keep moving!"

    "I heard Miss Wu Yue married a pretty boy. Could it be that he can't satisfy you, and now you can't take your eyes off us?"

    "Maybe the pretty boy isn't up to the task? Miss Wu Yue, when choosing a man, you can’t just look at his face—you need someone who’s good in bed!"

    "Miss Wu Yue, those softies in the Alliance can’t compare to our manliness. Why don’t you give us a try?"

    Lewd and malicious laughter erupted. Wu Yue grabbed Yali’s arm. "They’re bullying me. They’re talking about me."

    Yali found Wu Yue’s familiarity baffling and irritating. Did she even understand her own situation, speaking to her in such a tone?

    Yali shoved her hand away. "Let go of me!"

    Wu Yue stood there with her head lowered, looking downcast. She glanced at Leah, trembling slightly, one arm wrapped around herself in unmistakable tension.

    Alone, with a slender figure, a beautiful face, and surrounded by countless mysterious myths and rumors, she appeared particularly fragile and delicate amidst the crowd of 180+ cm tall, burly Dark Order assassins. Her false composure and visible fear only fueled their desire to destroy.

    Yali could clearly sense the atmosphere growing thick and tense.

    The Dark Order members were intentionally closing in on Wu Yue, drawing nearer and nearer.

    Yali dragged Wu Yue along angrily, taking large strides. "Stop pretending! Don’t think I don’t know what you’re up to!"

    Yali pulled Wu Yue all the way into the main cockpit, dragging her so forcefully that Wu Yue stumbled several times before barely keeping up.

    Yali, tall and agile, manhandled Wu Yue like a ragdoll.

    Shoving Wu Yue forward abruptly, Yali struggled to contain her rage. "Felix, why did you save her after you already bombed her?!

    In just five minutes, she destroyed all our small reconnaissance ships!

    Killed our shuttle maintenance crew and completely wrecked the power core of the right-wing engine!

    She knows the entire shuttle’s route inside out!! She’s too dangerous. We must kill her immediately!!"

    Felix, braced against the control panel, turned to look at Wu Yue. Behind him, the large screen displayed their now-exposed positions due to the bombardment, now satellite-tracked and being hunted by military units from all sides, alarms blaring incessantly.

    Felix sneered, "Miss Wu Yue, you don’t seem surprised by any of this."

    Wu Yue, "Felix, you should have blown me to bits right away. That might have been your only chance to kill me."

    Felix, "I can still kill you now."

    Wu Yue chuckled lightly, "Your shuttle's coordinates are completely exposed. The military is closing in from all directions, determined to wipe you all out. You can't escape.

    If you kill me, the entire Dark Order will go down with me.

    Or rather, from the moment you fired and revealed your coordinates, from the moment you set your sights on me, the Dark Order has already been dragged to hell with you."

    A crazed smile lit up Felix's eyes. "So what! It would be my greatest honor to kill the Savior!"

    Wu Yue smiled serenely. "But I won't die. You said it yourself—I am the Savior.

    I'm a god. Gods don't die. If you insist on challenging a god's authority with the entire Dark Order, I don't mind showing you a miracle."

    Felix's pupils dilated wildly, his gaze fixed on Wu Yue with frenzied excitement.

    Yali, "Don't listen to her nonsense!! If she were really that powerful, she would have escaped long ago!!"

    "But I heard the Alliance suddenly has many newborns... These children popped out instantly."

    "In just one month, dozens of SSS+ psychics sprang up in the Alliance, and they all even gained SSS awakening abilities and top-grade SSS+ weapons!"

    "Originally, Felix was the undisputed top dog, but now even Felix is... uh..."

    Before he could finish, the man's neck was snapped by Felix's bare hands.

    Felix's eyes were dangerously dark, filled with murderous intent as he glared at Wu Yue.

    Wu Yue smiled slyly. "You're starting to regret it, aren't you? Regretting not killing me right away.

    If I hadn't appeared, your absolute authority would still be rock solid.

    Now, not only are people questioning your decisions, but even your absolute strength has become... nothing special.

    Felix, care to guess what your subordinates are thinking right now?

    Are they wondering, since a god can bestow power upon so many, and even someone as powerful as Felix can be mass-produced...

    Then why can't I?

    If I switch sides now and help Miss Wu Yue, would Miss Wu Yue take a liking to me and grant me great power?

    After all..."

    Wu Yue smiled at Felix. "Felix, even you—just because I recognized you, just because I called your name—got so excited you couldn't wait to rescue me, to show off for me, didn't you?"

    Felix narrowed his eyes dangerously. "You, you really think too highly of yourself!!

    Do you even know who you're talking to?! Do you know how many people I've killed, how I made them suffer, I..."

    Felix suddenly stopped, his gaze shifting uncertainly to Wu Yue. Seeing her confident, triumphant expression, he had a sudden realization.

    He had almost been sucked into her game. He was explaining himself, trying to prove his ability and strength to her—he was explaining himself!

    All along, whenever he appeared, everyone was terrified of him. But now, he found himself needing to assert his dominance.

    And the more he did so, the more those around him would doubt him, thinking he had been overshadowed by Wu Yue.

    Which part... exactly which part went wrong!!

    Seeing Felix's expressionless yet intensely, silently reflective look, Wu Yue smiled,

    "Felix, I told you the answer from the very beginning.

    From the start, from the moment you set your sights on me, you were destined to drag the entire Dark Order down to hell with you.

    Understand?

    Because it wasn’t you who targeted me—it was I who targeted all of you, the Dark Order."

    As soon as Wu Yue finished her eerie, sinister words, military support signals flooded the main control panel behind Felix from all directions, with explosions erupting across the entire map.

    Everywhere was the roar of artillery fire and the panicked distress calls of Dark Order craft operators. Red dots vanished one after another, and the main cockpit fell into a dead silence—no one dared utter a word.

    But,

    the death knell of the Dark Order had officially begun.
