Chapter 380 – Cat Dad’s Faction Experiences the Terror of Protagonists
= B1, Boss Room =
The burly man with phoenix headwear looked down at his bloody opponent. He uttered.
“Any last word? I’ll give you 10 seconds to bid farewell to your comrades.”
Titania was on her knees, gazing at the person’s face and his name.
Lu Bu, the Demon Lord of Death Valley, Level 4,500 (?????)
“You… what are you?”
“A hero and a villain, probably. I have the protagonist and the antagonist class. If you want more information, you should ask Mao Miaomiao or Mu-Nyang in the afterlife.”
Lu Bu swung down his halberd, aiming to split Titania’s head in half.
CLANK
The halberd met with a spear shaft. Under it, Shepherd knelt and supported the spear, protecting his wife.
“Retreat, Titania!”
Lu Bu dully stared at Shepherd and deeply exhaled. The next moment, Hiiro appeared behind Titania and her head was lopped.
“You’re not supposed to look away from your opponent, Shepherd!”
Shepherd turned around and found the head of the spirit queen. Her body collapsed and dissipated into dust, leaving her head intact.
“NOOOO!!”
Lu Bu swung down again with more force. This time, he knocked Shepherd’s Longinus out of his hand.
Hiiro swung his other blade and cut Shepherd’s chest. The other sword pierced through his heart!
Lu Bu mercilessly gave Shepherd the finishing blow. He beheaded him in one swing.
Ironically, Shepherd’s head rolled toward Titania’s head. Both of them looked at each other and shed tears of regret. Then, their consciousnesses faded.
BOOM
BOOM
The other fights also concluded.
Taotie dragged the limbless Mimir with him to the teleportation platform in the room. He activated it and fled to the B10 floor. Meanwhile, Cernun, who had reverted back to the alligator dragon, had countless wounds on his body while the dragonewt Xie Tian was unharmed. As for Alice and Meng Xin, the latter choked the bloody succubus queen with one hand and raised her up.
Meng Xin warned Alice, “I don’t want to kill a child. Break your ties with this dungeon, and I’ll let you live!”
Alice spat, “Go to hell!”
“…”
Meng Xin furrowed his brows, unable to push himself to kill the girl. He put her down.
SWUA!
As soon as Meng Xin put Alice down, Hiiro appeared behind Alice and thrust his blade. It punctured through her belly and destroyed her dantian.
The bloody blade stopped one centimeter in front of Meng Xin’s face. The latter’s expression turned dark from shock.
“N…NO! WHY?!”
Hiiro Narukami pulled his blade, allowing her to collapse on the ground. Then, he stomped on Alice’s head, crushing it. Afterward, he received the system prompts that he successfully killed Alice.
“You’re too soft, Meng Xin. In war, there is no difference between men, women, and children in arms. We’re all equal.”
“SHE WAS ALREADY DEFEATED! THERE WAS NO POINT KILLING HER!!” Meng Xin pulled Hiiro’s collar and yelled, but Hiiro sneered and pushed him away.
“Grow some balls. Do you want to kill Mao Miaomiao or not?”
“I do, but not his family, women, or children!”
Lu Bu turned around and pointed his halberd at Meng Xin’s face, “Then, you should get lost while you still can. We don’t welcome naïve goodie-two-shoes losers here.”
“…”
Meng Xin bit his lower lips. He clapped his hands, pulling Shepherd, Titania, and Alice’s souls toward him. Then, he activated one of his unique domain power.
DING
<You have activated the mandate domain – Samsara Authority!>
<All souls in your possession will be protected. No external influence can harm their souls while they are in the process of reincarnation or returning to their origins.>
Lu Bu and Hiiro received the messages. The former was indifferent but the latter immediately swung his sword against Meng Xin.
CLANK!
The beggar blocked the strike, and a punch flew to Hiiro’s face.
BAM
Meng Xin’s punch broke Hiiro’s nose, four teeth, and his frontal skull. Meng Xin snorted and kicked the ground, fleeing from the dungeon.
“COME BACK HERE!” Hiiro’s wounds were instantly healed. He chased after Meng Xin.
Meanwhile, Eldrich sweated profusely. Although he received a blessing from Pangu and got the antagonist class, he wasn’t as strong as the other four. He was nervous as he failed to finish off Taotie and Mimir.
Xie Tian, who was in the middle of combat with Cernun, suddenly sheathed his sword. He waved his hand at the dragon.

“…”
Cernun glanced at the remains of Shepherd, Titania, and Alice. He then looked at Xie Tian again.
“Kill me! You won!”
“Kill you?” Xie Tian rested his hands on his hips and looked at the floor. He kicked the dust and grumbled.
“Death is too easy for you. Suffer more.”
“Huh?”
The dragonewt Xie Tian looked up and smirked, “Suffer more for me.”
“What are you-“
BOOM
Xie Tian vanished and appeared under Cernun. He delivered a palm strike at the latter’s belly.
Cernun’s dantian exploded!
The alligator dragon roared in pain and collapsed to the ground. He couldn’t stop vomiting blood.
However, as sadistic as he was, Xie Tian opened his game inventory and brought out a dantian restoration pill. He yanked the dragon’s mouth open and threw the pill into his massive mouth.
The pill worked as intended. Cernun’s dantian slowly repaired itself.
“You… What are you?” Cernun was confused.
“As I said. Suffer more. Know the pain that I had been through!”
BOOM
Xie Tian crushed Cernun’s dantian again!
“AAAAAHHHH!!”
“HAHAHAHAHA! That’s right. SCREAM!”
Cernun grudgingly glared at Xie Tian. His pupils turned green, “You will pay for this!”
“Go ahead. What are you going to do to me? Stare at me until I’m bored to death? Ha!”
Xie Tian raised his saber and struck down. However, Cernun suddenly caught it with his jaws. The dragon muttered.
“I, Sentinel Cernun, forfeit my freedom, my lifespan, my cultivation, and my dantian to give everything to my master, Emerald Hopea! May my soul be reincarnated as one of her servants so that I can protect everybody from Pangu and his cronies!”
Cernun dissipated to green dust. The particles sank into the floor and vanished along with his soul.
Xie Tian frowned as he had never seen this technique before. He looked at Lu Bu and Eldrich, “Did he just suicide or what?”
Eldrich sweated profusely and kept quiet while Lu Bu deeply sighed.
“You moron. Cernun is fleeing to Hopea. That dryad will retrieve his soul and reincarnate him!”
“Oh, that explains it. It doesn’t matter.”
“…”
Xie Tian maintained his dragonewt transformation. He turned his attention toward the teleportation platform in this room, which Mimir and Taotie had used earlier.
But as soon as Xie Tian looked at it, the platform exploded, disallowing them to use or study.
“Meh,” Xie Tian clicked his tongue. “I guess we have to dungeon-dive the normal way. I wish we had Brocell with us.”
“He’s long dead. He won’t come back to life.”
“I know.”
Xie Tian proceeded to mark the dungeon with his teleportation rune. Then, he tossed it back into his game inventory and pressed several buttons on his game windows.
DING
DING
The teleportation rune vanished from his inventory menu. A few seconds later, a hundred top immortals teleported into the B1 boss room.
Among them, Wei Cao, who was Wei Yuan’s father in his previous life, was also there!
“Let’s go, boys. We have so many people to kill. We don’t have much time.”
.
.
In the dungeon, Mao Miaomiao followed the trails of Bacteria corpses and the broken walls. Along the way, he noticed the scent of black and white karma strings.
Black karma strings belonged to sinners while the white ones originated from protagonists or heroes. Upon reading the memory of these karma strings, Mao Miaomiao discovered who the intruders were.
There were four protagonists and one evil cultivator here. However, all five of them had black karma strings of antagonists!
Mao Miaomiao’s right eyebrows didn’t stop twitching. He steeled his heart, preparing for some bad news or terrible encounter. Unfortunately, he didn’t have time to prepare anymore.
As Mao Miaomiao was in the middle of tracking the path, two protagonists flew toward him – One was fleeing, but the other one was chasing.
Mao Miaomiao unsheathed Killer Queen and prepared for combat. But when he found out who they were, he was taken aback.
“Meng Xin? Hiiro Narukami?”
Meng Xin looked ahead and found Mao Miaomiao. He stopped flying away from Hiiro and landed 10 meters in front of the black-winged angel.
“Mao Miaomiao.”
Meng Xin gritted his teeth as he had the urge to challenge him to a duel, but it was not the right time.
Mao Miaomiao noticed something in Meng Xin’s hand. His eyes were bloodshot again.
“Why are you carrying the souls of my son’s friends?”
“…”
Meng Xin opened his palm and showed the angel the three balls of souls. Then, he shoved them toward Mao Miaomiao’s chest. The latter reluctantly received them and checked the souls.
Upon seeing the souls of Shepherd, Titania, and Alice, Mao Miaomiao was relieved.
“Take them. Resurrect them yourself.” Meng Xin let go of the souls and walked past Mao Miaomiao.
“You…”
Mao Miaomiao and Meng Xin didn’t have enough time to chat. Hiiro caught up and brandished his swords against both of them.
“HAND THEM OVER, BASTARD!”
As soon as Mao Miaomiao noticed Hiiro’s killing intent, he spread his wings and collected the souls in his dantian. At the same time, he took three steps forward and stopped time.
Hiiro Narukami couldn’t react to Mao Miaomiao’s mandate domain power or negate it on time. The black katana cut through Hiiro’s right shoulder and exited through his left waist.
Two pieces of Hiiro’s body fell to the ground and dissipated into dust. Then, the player received a game message.
<YOU DIED.>
Hiiro’s consciousness returned to his real body on Earth as the blessings of Pangu and Player Perks still protected him. As for his game items, they teleported to his game inventory.
Mao Miaomiao wasn’t finished. He reached out to grab Hiiro’s karma to severe it. Unfortunately, the strings quickly vanished as if they never existed.
“Shit! Don’t let me see you again!” Spat the angel.
Meng Xin looked at the dust of his ex-colleague. Then, he snorted at Mao Miaomiao. “I’m not in the mood to kill you today. Consider yourself lucky!”
“What are you? A cliché third-rated villain with fourth-rated dialogues?” Mao Miaomiao laughed at the cheeky junior.
Meng Xin didn’t answer. He grumbled and turned around.
Mao Miaomiao gazed at the beggar and scratched his head in confusion. The nostalgia and old memory took over – He talked to Meng Xin as if he was an old friend.
“… How’s Zhao Bao?”
Meng Xin’s eyes softened. He looked up and thought of his previous life’s parent, “In the Samsara River and having a blissful long dream. What about Zhao Yu?”
“She’s serving Devil at the moment. She’s doing fine.”
“Good.”
“…”
Meng Xin quietly left the dungeon while he was in a trance, thinking of his past life and his family.
Mao Miaomiao left him alone. He shrugged and rechecked the three friends of his son.
Their souls were slightly damaged, especially Shepherd’s. Unless he returned to his creator, he would not be able to reincarnate.
‘How the hell can I bring him back to Joshua? Should I just eat him or give him to Xiaomao?’
[Mu-Nyang]: “Give them all to Xiaomao. Don’t eat them.”
‘Isn’t Shepherd belong to Joshua?’
[Mu-Nyang]: “He belongs to Xiaomao now. Joshua can suck his thumb and cry to his mama.”
‘… You’re feral. By the way, how are the others? Are they safe?’
[Mu-Nyang]: “Ma Xingjuan is okay. Ma Moxi is with her. Also, you should hurry if you don’t want your son to be in danger. Two hybrids and two antagonists are down there. All non-MCs are not their opponents. If Xiaomao’s friends run into them, they will die!”
‘Crap!’
Mao Miaomiao rushed further into the dungeon. He managed to find the entrance to the B1’s boss room. However, the trails of the intruders disappeared.
‘Crap! The traces are gone! Oh, stupid me. I can use teleportation devices!’
Mao Miaomiao slapped the back of his neck and searched for teleportation platforms. Unfortunately, they were all destroyed.
‘… Shit. This is bad. Do I have to follow karma strings again?’
