# Chapter 1333: Scatter, I Say!
Guan Hu quickly stepped forward to support Xiao Chuihuo!
Xiao Chuihuo's eyes were bloodshot with anxiety: "Quick! Help me over there!"
He hadn't known about this at all. Why didn't anyone tell me!
How could this be? How could he die?
He'd already returned to the country!
At this moment, everyone surrounded Jiangnan, watching the rain beat down on his lifeless body!
Their hearts felt like they were about to burst!
Qin Shou clenched his fists so hard they creaked, but forced a smile on his face!
"Sout... South God must be joking with us, right? Get up! Stop acting, this isn't funny at all!"
"Good people die young, but villains live a thousand years. You're a villain, aren't you? Why are you dying for no reason? Get up! Wuwu~"
As he spoke, he punched Jiangnan's chest heavily, wiping away tears.
Jiangnan: ???
I know you're sad, but why are you hitting me?
Is it because you couldn't beat me when I was alive, and now you won't get another chance, so you're taking the opportunity to punch me a couple of times?
God, I'm a villain indeed!
I'm already dead! At least praise me a little, hey!
Beside them, Yu Qingqing couldn't bear to watch anymore. She covered her face and crouched down, shoulders trembling uncontrollably.
Xiao Chuihuo pushed through the crowd and rushed in!
"How did he die? Who did it? WHO THE F*CK DID IT! AHHHH!"
A grief-stricken roar erupted from Xiao Chuihuo's throat.
He held Jiangnan's face, his old hands shaking like chicken claws.
Corpse Jiang remained silent. Grandpa Dean, I'm sorry about this!
I have to deceive you for now!
Xiao Chuihuo, who was usually terrified of Jiangnan coming back, now desperately wished for him to return!
Even if he tore the academy apart a thousand times, it wouldn't matter!
"How could he not come back? With Grandpa here, no one could hurt you! Who did this!"
Mila watched nervously, keeping an eye on Xiao Chuihuo, afraid something might go wrong.
(๑◔﹏◔ิ๑)
If the situation turned bad, she would have to save him immediately!
"It... it was an assassination by Baldr's Celestial Group!"
Scorching high temperature radiated from Xiao Chuihuo's body, thick white smoke rising from him.
All rain within three meters of him instantly evaporated.
An astonishing killing intent bloomed like a blazing sun!
"Baldr, is it? You dare touch my Fire God's cub! Old Zhao! Carry me to find him! I'll cremate him myself!"
Zhao Dezhu's expression turned fierce. He'd been holding back for too long. He pulled Xiao Chuihuo onto his back and was about to leave.
Corpse Jiang: !!!
Don't go! Hey! I'm not dead! I'm acting! Please don't go!
But the 24 hours weren't up yet, Jiangnan couldn't come back to life!
Xia Yao was also anxious, but couldn't show it, or everything would be ruined!
Mila was about to use time stop when an old voice came from afar!
"Brother Xiao, you rest now!"
Di Rui led the way, followed by a large contingent of Spirit Martial Honor Guards, their expressions solemn!
They even carried a coffin!
Behind them were quite a few accompanying official media!
Everyone was stunned. Wasn't that the Supreme Commander of the Spirit Martial Force?
A figure who always appeared on TV had come personally?
Corpse Jiang panicked. This act seemed to have gotten way out of hand, gradually deviating from the script, damn it!
Commander Di himself?
I... am I really that important?
Xiao Chuihuo's eyes were bloodshot: "You lousy chess player! Are you still stopping me even now?"
"Our own cub! Killed by outsiders on our own turf! And we don't even dare to fart? Just endure?"
"All these years, I, Xiao Chuihuo, have sent off the young before the old, batch after batch! Today I'm sending off another one, and you expect me to just watch?"
"I may be old, but the hot blood in my chest still boils! You can swallow this anger, but I can't! Get the hell out of my way! Whoever stops me, I'll fight them!"
Corpse Jiang was truly panicked!
Grandpa Xiao, are you this fierce? That's Commander Di Rui!
At least show some respect! Stop cursing!
Di Rui looked haggard. He stepped forward and patted Xiao Chuihuo's shoulder heavily!
"It's not that I'm stopping you from going, but I've already sent people. Not only can't you swallow this anger, neither can I!"
"Brother Xiao! Calm down! Jiangnan wouldn't want to see you like this either. If you go, are you going to make me bring another coffin?"
"Let me handle this. I will give Jiangnan justice!"
Xiao Chuihuo glared at Di Rui, eyes bloodshot!
"Jiangnan was my best student! He fought tooth and nail out there, and now he comes back a corpse!"
"And you bring a coffin?"
Xiao Chuihuo grabbed Di Rui's collar!
"I don't want justice! I want him alive!"
Di Rui clenched his steel teeth, staring back at Xiao Chuihuo!
"The dead cannot be brought back to life!"
Each word was forced out through gritted teeth!
Corpse Jiang: !!!
Wrong! The dead CAN be brought back!
You guys just hurry up and bury me! Don't start fighting!
I'm so panicked right now, I can't even imagine how I'll explain myself after I come back to life!
The two stared at each other for a long time. Xiao Chuihuo suddenly sighed heavily and collapsed into his wheelchair, as if all his strength had been drained.
He took a deep look at Jiangnan, then pushed his wheelchair away, his back incomparably desolate and lonely.
Di Rui took a deep breath: "Bury him with national honors!"
Corpse Jiang was changed into a neat military uniform, small medals pinned all over him, and placed in the coffin, looking peaceful.
(｡˘◠˘｡)

╰⋃˘⋃╯
The coffin lid was closed, and a bright red flag was spread over it!
The location was chosen on the open ground of Sky Island!
The drizzle continued. Every member of the honor guard wore solemn and respectful expressions. Nine gunshots rang out in salute!
All the students and mentors stood on the grass of Sky Island, faces clouded with gloom!
Di Rui looked at the coffin, his expression solemn!
"Child! You've worked hard. Rest in peace. We'll guard this place. Even though you've fallen asleep, your legend still remains in this world!"
"With a chest full of hot blood that startles gods and ghosts! With lofty ambition that shakes heaven and earth!"
"Your merit shines as bright as the sun and moon, praised through the ages! Your indomitable spirit is the eternal soul of Huaxia!"
"This world is more精彩 because of you!"
After the eulogy, the earth was filled in, and a fresh new mound appeared on the grass!
Sobs could still be heard from the crowd, soft weeping.
Then Wu Liang carried over a tombstone carved from spirit materials!
He planted it directly in front of the mound!
On it were engraved several bold, flowing characters!
| "I had something to do" |
| "So I'll hang up first" |
| ------ Jiangnan |
Di Rui's eyelid twitched: "You... what the hell did you carve?"
An epitaph, hey! What kind of writing is this? This is a very solemn occasion!
Wu Liang rubbed his eyes, a tough guy crying!
(;´༎ຶ㉨༎ຶ`) "I know best what kind of person Bro Nan is. He definitely wouldn't want people standing in front of his grave with faces full of sorrow!"
"If Brother Nan wrote his own epitaph, he would definitely write it like this!"
Everyone looked at the words on the tombstone, recalling Jiangnan's antics from the past, and couldn't help but snort a laugh.
Then they cried even louder. For a moment, they didn't know whether to laugh or cry...
Corpse Jiang: ???
Big guy, what did you carve on there?
It better not be something weird, right? No typos or anything?
It's so dark in here, I can't see anything!
Maybe after I come back to life, I can sneak out at night and change it?
Looking at the epitaph, people began to mourn. The rain grew heavier, lightning and thunder crackling across the sky!
Lan's gaze was fixed on one side of the void, her large eyes filled with hatred!
She sensed a faint spatial ripple there!
At that moment, Ruiya was indeed hiding in the void, watching the funeral, the corner of her mouth curling into a smug arc!
(✡´৺`✡)
She could confirm that Jiangnan was really dead. Otherwise, Huaxia wouldn't be making such a big fuss!
But after the funeral, she would have to personally confirm it again!
Just then, a girl in a black suit with a slim figure suddenly teleported into the scene!
She wore a black hat on her head, revealing pink, slightly curly short hair!
A fox mask covered her face, hiding her features.
She wore leather gloves and held a large black umbrella!
She walked up to the tombstone, paused slightly at the epitaph!
"Heh~ Just like your style!"
As she spoke, she pulled out a pink cherry blossom and gently placed it on the tombstone!
Then she turned and silently stood at the edge of the crowd, saying nothing!
"If one day you die, I will dress in black, hold a black umbrella, and silently stand at the edge of the crowd!"
"Wearing a mask in silence, hiding my identity, not letting anyone know who I am!"
"Let them suspect that you have a secret that no one knows, mysterious yet interesting..."
But beneath the mask, Qian Benying bit her lower lip tightly, her eyes red!
She forced herself not to make a sound, her fingers gripping the umbrella handle turning white from pressure!
She had thought for a long time whether to come. After all, a space user from Hongguo entering Huaxia was an extremely high risk!
But she still came, attending the funeral as a mysterious person!
Qian Benying knew very well in her heart that in Jiangnan's mind, she counted as a kind of hidden friend!
He had countless opportunities to kill her, yet every time he let her go!
Just because when she was in Area 53, she helped him block Piers once...
He never said it out loud, but he always remembered it in his heart!
In Qian Benying's heart, although she hated Jiangnan to death, she still felt that Jiangnan counted as a special friend of hers!
Otherwise, she wouldn't have come today!
"Rest in peace. I can't do much, but what I can do, I will do!"
The rain fell heavier and heavier, thunder rumbling, making everyone's heart restless!
In the distance, Xiao Chuihuo silently watched Jiangnan's funeral, his fists gradually clenching!
"Boom!"
A deafening thunderclap exploded by his ears, illuminating the world as bright as day!
Two veins bulged on Xiao Chuihuo's forehead. He looked up at the sky, fury blazing!
"What's with this rain? Today is my cub's funeral! Don't f*cking bring me bad luck! If you want to rain, do it another day! Not today!"
"I want this sky! Clear and cloudless!"
"Scatter, I say!"
With a "BOOM," an extremely terrifying spirit pressure erupted from Xiao Chuihuo as the center, blasting outward!
All rain within a thirty-thousand-meter radius was instantly cleared. The supreme spirit pressure shot toward the sky!
Like a pair of invisible giant hands, it tore and shattered the dark clouds covering the sky!
Cloud-pushing, sky-rending!
Xiao Chuihuo's aura was astonishing, his robes billowing and rustling!
The dark clouds were torn apart, creating a hole over thirty thousand meters in diameter, revealing the azure sky!
Warm sunlight slanted down, shining on the tombstone. The green grass sparkled with crystal droplets. The rain had passed, the sky was clear, for miles and miles!
But beyond the thirty-thousand-meter range, it was still pouring rain!
Everyone stared at Xiao Chuihuo in horror, their scalps tingling, faces filled with shock!
The Old Fire God! Though aged and frail, he still bore the name of a god!
