The Narrator's teasing helped alleviate the pressure weighing on Feng Qi's heart.
Always optimistic, he quickly regained his composure.
No matter how arduous the path ahead, he refused to give up. As long as a sliver of hope remained, he would persevere with all his might.
Closing the special page analyzing Mu Qing, he typed her na into the search bar and clicked "Confirm."
After filtering the results, Mu Qing's detailed information appeared:
Mu Qing (Rebel Leader)
Introduction: As a child, Mu Qing voluntarily joined the rune augnt project. During the experints, she perfectly fused with a Special Rune Crystal (classified), granting her the extraordinary ability to absorb power from food.
At age 17, she defected from the Scarlet Research Institute and enrolled in Star City Academy, where she remained inconspicuous, never revealing her true abilities.
After graduation, she joined the Howling Wind Domain Battle Group, where her talents finally shone. Through her exceptional skills, she single-handedly elevated the team's evaluation from B-Class to S-Class. Two years later, she left the Howling Wind Domain Battle Group to establish "Dawn," one of the most formidable domain combat teams of the era.
Had Mu Qing continued on her original path, her future would have been filled with glory. But after Feng Qi's death, her personality underwent a drastic transformation. She ultimately ford the Dawn Rebel Army, a force that plunged the world into chaos, and launched a challenge against all of humanity.
Her hands were stained with the blood of countless innocents. She led the rebels in slaughtering entire cities, committing heinous cris that would forever be reviled by future generations.

Online Comnts:
I think this is right: Ca here to spit on her. My ancestors were among the survivors of Mu Qing's city massacre. They witnessed her brutality firsthand. Stop trying to whitewash her actions in the comnts. No matter why she betrayed humanity, what she did was wrong. Her sins can never be justified.
Godless Heart: A woman nailed to the pillar of historical sha. Her entire life was steeped in suffering. Her family died one by one in her early years, leaving her utterly alone in the world.
She then chose to join the rune augnt project, becoming a half-human, half-ghost rune augnt. Shunned by society, she didn't experience genuine warmth until she t Feng Qi.
But fate, as if playing a cruel joke, thrust her back into the abyss. Her closest friend betrayed humanity...
Perhaps it was this relentless suffering that drove Mu Qing to the brink, fueling her desire to destroy this cold, indifferent world. Having witnessed history, I felt compelled to offer my perspective.
Laughing at the Wind: After reading countless interpretations of Mu Qing, I can't help but sigh. Feng Qi's presence was like a fleeting ray of light in her dark world, briefly illuminating her existence before vanishing. Yet its impact on Mu Qing was profound.
She could have endured the darkness she was born into, but that fleeting ray of light showed her warmth and revealed the possibility of brightness.
Feng Qi streaked across her inner world like a shooting star, disappearing into the horizon. So she chose to follow the path of that vanished star, willing to plunge into the abyss if necessary.
Feng Qi felt a pang of bitterness as he read the online comnts about Mu Qing.
For so inexplicable reason, she's been saddled with infamy, destined to be reviled for millennia. The more I read these comnts, the angrier I get.
"They don't know the truth, so it's understandable they'd curse . But it still stings."
What can you do? Want to create a fake account and curse them back for you?
Feng Qi: ...
The Narrator's teasing instantly dispelled his lancholy.
After closing Mu Qing's profile, he typed "Liu Yue" into the search bar.
A mont later, Liu Yue's detailed information appeared on the screen.
Liu Yue (Human Traitor):
Description: The Liu Family Sword Dao achieved nurous glorious victories against Domain Invasions in its early years. They also participated in several successful Domain Field dispersal operations, making significant contributions to the survival of Human Civilization. Liu Yue is the last heir of the Liu Family Sword Dao.
During Liu Yue's infancy, the mighty Liu Family Sword Dao served as one of the primary forces against domain creatures. Yet one day, the entire family mysteriously vanished without a trace, never to be seen again. Only Liu Yue returned, mysteriously, at the age of seventeen.
Liu Yue never spoke a word about his family's fate, offering no explanation to the world. This mystery beca one of the greatest unsolved cases of the era.
While studying at Star City Academy, Liu Yue beca a student of Feng Qi and followed him in betraying humanity. After the betrayal was exposed, Liu Yue was secretly executed.
With Liu Yue's death, the Liu Family Sword Dao lost its last heir and faded into history, a truly regrettable end.

ColaPlusWater: Liu Yue betraying humanity is absolutely absurd! The Liu Family has a glorious history of military achievents, filled with heroes who died fighting against the Domain Invasion. And then this bastard Liu Yue just betrays humanity? I seriously suspect Feng Qi was controlling him. There's no other reason Liu Yue would betray us!
I Could Do That Too: The most puzzling aspect isn't Liu Yue's betrayal, but the mysterious disappearance of over a hundred mbers of the Liu Family, as if they had vanished into thin air. Apart from Liu Yue's enigmatic return at the age of seventeen, what truly beca of the rest of the Liu Family?
Could they have been wiped out by a Domain-Transcending Creature?
Even then, wouldn't there be so trace left behind? I suspect only Liu Yue knew the truth, but he never revealed it before his death, leaving it an unsolvable historical mystery.
Roaring Dragon: After reviewing the records, I realized Liu Yue's combat prowess was truly formidable. We lost an entire domain combat team trying to capture him. If we hadn't received advance intelligence and set up an ambush, we might never have caught him. It's tragic that such a powerful figure turned against us—both lantable and infuriating.
Online Warfare: If my theory is correct, Liu Yue was likely manipulated by Feng Qi. Born into the Liu Family, his upbringing would have made betraying humanity unthinkable. He despised domain creatures above all else. How could he possibly have harbored rebellious thoughts? The truth, as I said, lies with Feng Qi.
Good grief, I'm speechless. You're taking the bla again? These netizens just love to pin everything on Feng Qi whenever things go wrong. I really want to get into a keyboard war with them.
Feng Qi: ...
"It's fine. If I didn't know the truth, I'd probably be cursing the traitor who betrayed humanity too. I just need to stay calm."
From being a nobody when you first entered the Dream Realm, you've worked your way up to becoming humanity's greatest traitor. Now you're the source of all future calamities. Care to comnt on how you're feeling right now?
"Completely unfazed. I almost want to laugh," he said, forcing a calm deanor.
Then why are your fists clenched so tightly? Are you angry? Do you want to get into a keyboard war with them too?
Feng Qi: ...
After reviewing Liu Yue's profile, a question arose in his mind:
Where did the Liu Family mbers go?
From the character introduction and netizens' comnts, it was clear that the Liu Family had been a powerful force in his era, one of the main pillars defending against the Domain Invasion. Yet overnight, they vanished without a trace, the entire family of over a hundred people disappearing as if they had evaporated.
Only Liu Yue returned alone at the age of seventeen.
As he pondered this, he suddenly recalled Liu Yue's ntion of the "Heaven-Reaching Road."
Could the Liu Family mbers have gone to this place after their disappearance?
Filled with doubt, he closed Liu Yue's profile page and began searching for information about the "Heaven-Reaching Road" in the search bar.
After entering the keywords, search results appeared.
To his surprise, however, all the information about the Heaven-Reaching Road on the screen was related to gas, television shows, and similar content. There was no other data whatsoever.
The search results left him utterly bewildered. This was the first ti he had encountered such a situation.
Normally, even classified information would still appear in search results, though he lacked the necessary permissions to access it. But this complete absence of any leads was unprecedented.
He concluded that there were only two possible explanations.
First, Liu Yue was lying. The Heaven-Reaching Road either didn't exist as a place or was a mysterious organization with that na.
Second, the secrecy surrounding the Heaven-Reaching Road surpassed even the classification level of Mu Qing's death. Not only had it been scrubbed from the internet, but it had also been completely erased from historical records.
Determined to uncover the truth, he closed the filtered search page and began searching for information related to the Liu Family's mysterious disappearance.
As he sifted through the information, his expression gradually grew solemn.
He discovered that cases of mysterious disappearances throughout history were surprisingly common, and the missing individuals were invariably powerful figures of their ti.
They had all vanished suddenly one day, as if they had evaporated into thin air, never to be seen again—a fate eerily similar to the mysterious disappearance of the Liu Family mbers.
A chill ran down his spine as he suddenly thought of his parents.
As a child, he had been told that his parents disappeared during a Domain Dispersal operation. The team never found their bodies, only their personal equipnt.
He didn't know how powerful his parents were, but he knew that the Domain Combat Team they belonged to was considered exceptionally strong.
He had once overheard a neighbor woman say enviously, "If only my son could join that Domain Combat Team soday."
Could his parents' disappearance be connected to this?
Blind Monk, you've hit on a crucial point!
"Narrator, do you know the reason for the mysterious disappearances of these contemporary powerhouses?"
No, but I know that throughout history, many powerful figures have suddenly vanished without a trace, never to be seen again.
The Narrator's response only deepened his confusion.
"Were they assassinated by Domain-Transcending Creatures?"
But he quickly dismissed this theory. According to available information, the mysterious organization targeting contemporary geniuses only targeted the younger generation of human prodigies, and their assassinations always left traces.
Lin Ran had records of evading assassinations.
The missing individuals were all renowned powerhouses of their era, possessing imnse strength. It was impossible for a mysterious organization to eliminate them without leaving any traces every ti.
Therefore, their disappearances must have other causes.
This made Feng Qi think of the "Heaven-Reaching Road" that Liu Yue had ntioned.
Could it be that all the mysteriously vanished powerhouses had gone to this place?
During their conversation on the academy's training grounds, Liu Yue had told Lin Ran that if it were him, he might have a chance to go there in the future.
Feng Qi now interpreted this to an: "With your talent, you have the potential to beco a powerhouse, and perhaps you'll have the opportunity to travel the Heaven-Reaching Road."
If Liu Yue's words were true, then it was highly likely that these missing powerhouses had gone to this place called the "Heaven-Reaching Road."
As this thought surfaced, a new wave of questions arose in his mind.
Where exactly was this Heaven-Reaching Road? And why would these powerhouses want to go there?
After pondering for a while, unable to find any answers, he reluctantly gave up.
Information about the Heaven-Reaching Road couldn't be found in the database, so he would have to seek answers in the real world.
The key to unlocking this mystery lay with Liu Yue.
