Confused Xu Xingmian: Who am I? Where am I? How did I end up on the front lines?!

"Boom—!"

The massive strategic transport ship tore through the sky, flying at full speed toward the northern border line.

Inside the ship, the atmosphere was somewhat eerie.

A group of fully armed Longxia elite soldiers, wearing combat uniforms, sat upright and motionless.

In their midst, a stunningly beautiful young woman wearing a gorgeous performance outfit sat there abruptly, her eyes hollow, her face filled with the confusion of "Who am I, where am I, what am I doing."

Su Li couldn't help but steal a glance at Xu Xingmian, her heart filled with doubt.

What exactly was so special about this big star that made Consultant Lin Yuan go to such great lengths?

Yan Wu Xiaolie looked even more puzzled.

He leaned over to Cold Moon and asked in a low voice, "Cold Moon, do you think this big star, Xu, can really help?"

"I don't even think she's a Martial Artist."

Cold Moon glanced at him and said indifferently, "Consultant Lin Yuan has his own reasons for his decisions."

"You just need to focus on your own duties."

Yan Wu Xiaolie sheepishly shut his mouth.

As for the person involved, Xu Xingmian, her heart had completely collapsed at this moment.

She stared blankly at the clouds rapidly receding outside the porthole, her mind a complete blank.

All of this was just too surreal!

A few hours ago, she was still singing on stage.

The next second, she was snatched up by a giant golden hand and brought here.

Then, she was inexplicably stuffed into a warship, told that she was being taken to a war?

A war!

What kind of war was a helpless female star like her supposed to fight?

The more Xu Xingmian thought about it, the more absurd it felt, and she couldn't help but steal a glance at Lin Yuan, who was sitting opposite her, resting with his eyes closed.

Who exactly was this man who looked excessively young?

Why could he tear through space?

Why were those big shots so respectful to him?

Just as she was letting her imagination run wild, Lin Yuan suddenly opened his eyes.

"What are you thinking about?"

His lazy voice gave Xu Xingmian a start.

"No... nothing!"

She waved her hands hurriedly, her voice trembling slightly.

Lin Yuan couldn't help but find her skittish behavior amusing.

"Relax, I'm not going to eat you."

He yawned and asked casually, "Do you know why I brought you here?"

Xu Xingmian shook her head blankly.

"Because you have a special Physique."

Lin Yuan's voice suddenly became a bit more serious.

"Sacred Word Spirit Body."

"Sacred... Sacred Word Spirit Body?"

Xu Xingmian's eyes widened, her face full of confusion.

"What does that mean?"

"Simply put, your voice possesses the power to act directly upon the Soul."

Lin Yuan explained, "You might not notice it usually, but under specific circumstances, your singing voice can purify evil and soothe mania."

"Even... kill enemies."

Xu Xingmian's face turned deathly pale in an instant.

"Kill... kill enemies?"

She pointed at herself, her voice shaking.

"Me? With my singing voice?"

"This... this is impossible!"

Lin Yuan shrugged.

"Don't believe it? Then how do you think your musical talent came about?"

"Why can your singing make so many people go crazy for it?"

"Is it just because of technique?"

Xu Xingmian was stunned.

She recalled the scene of her first performance on stage.

At that time, she was extremely nervous, and her voice was trembling.

But the moment she started singing, the entire venue went quiet.

Everyone was deeply captivated by her singing, as if they had entered a wondrous state.

Since then, every one of her performances could bring unprecedented shock to the audience.

She had always thought this was the result of her own hard work.

But now that she thought about it...

"Really... is it really because of my Physique?"

Xu Xingmian muttered to herself, her eyes filled with shock.

"What else could it be?"

Lin Yuan said matter-of-factly, "Do you think I have nothing better to do than travel a long distance to grab an ordinary star?"

Xu Xingmian: "..."

She felt her worldview being reshaped in an extremely violent manner.

So, she wasn't an ordinary person after all?

So, those musical talents she was so proud of were all because of some "Sacred Word Spirit Body"?

"Then... what do you want me to do?"

She mustered up her courage and asked in a low voice.

"It's simple."

Lin Yuan stretched his back, "When we arrive at the battlefield later, just stand there and sing your best song."

"Leave the rest to me."

Xu Xingmian's eyes widened.

"Just... just like that?"

"Just like that."

Lin Yuan nodded and added, "Oh, right, remember to make it loud; every enemy needs to hear it."

Xu Xingmian felt like she was going crazy.

Singing to kill enemies?

What kind of insane logic is that?

She wanted to ask more, but the warship suddenly shook violently.

Immediately after, the pilot's nervous voice came over the broadcast.

"Report! Massive energy fluctuations detected ahead!"

"The northern defense line... is under fierce attack!"

Lin Yuan snapped his eyes open, and his originally lazy gaze instantly became as sharp as a blade.

He stood up, walked to the porthole, and looked into the distance.

In the distance, a massive energy barrier was flickering violently.

That was the defensive barrier temporarily constructed by the Longxia Northern Legion.

And on the other side of the barrier, dense, white figures were charging forward like a tidal wave.

Every impact sparked heaven-shaking fireworks on the barrier.

"Snow Fiends..."

Su Li's expression became grave.

Even from such a long distance, she could feel that violent and bloodthirsty aura.

"Increase speed!"

Lin Yuan shouted back to the pilot, "Land now!"

"Yes!"

The warship began to descend rapidly.

Through the porthole, everyone could clearly see the tragic scene of the battlefield below.

The soldiers of the Northern Legion were giving their all to maintain the defensive barrier.

But the onslaught of those Snow Fiends was simply too fierce, and the cracks in the barrier were constantly widening.

"Damn it, these beasts!"

Yan Wu Xiaolie looked at the situation on the battlefield and couldn't help but curse out loud.

"If this continues, the defensive line will be breached!"

"It won't."

Lin Yuan's voice was calmly reassuring.

He looked at the berserk Snow Fiends below, a cold sneer curling the corners of his lips.

"The game has only just begun."

...

"Boom—!"

The massive strategic transport ship slammed heavily behind the northern defense line, kicking up a sky full of snow.

The moment the hatch opened, a bone-piercing cold wind mixed with a thick scent of blood rushed in.

As soon as Su Li and the others disembarked, they were shocked by the scene before them.

Several hundred meters ahead, a blue energy barrier a hundred meters high was flickering violently.

On the surface of the barrier, dense cracks were spreading like a spiderweb.

And on the other side of the barrier, countless massive white figures were smashing against it frantically.

"Roar—!!!"

The deafening roars of beasts echoed across the entire battlefield.

Each of those Snow Fiends was over three meters tall, covered in white fur like steel needles, with green faces and long fangs, extremely savage.

They brandished giant bone clubs and stone axes, striking the energy barrier again and again.

Every impact sparked heaven-shaking fireworks, causing the whole earth to tremble.

"My god..."

Yan Wu Xiaolie gasped.

"How many of them are there?"

Cold Moon's expression also became unprecedentedly grave.

"At least one hundred thousand."

Her voice was somewhat dry, "And they are still increasing without end."

At the very front of the battlefield, thousands of soldiers from the Longxia Northern Legion were giving their all to maintain the defensive Formation.

Their faces were filled with exhaustion and bloodstains, but their eyes still burned with indomitable Battle Intent.

"Hold on!"

A bearded veteran shouted loudly, "Reinforcements will be here soon!"

"We must not let these beasts break through!"

However, reality was cruel.

As the Snow Fiends' onslaught became increasingly fierce, the cracks in the energy barrier grew larger and larger.

In some places, holes had even started to appear.

"Report! The seventh defensive node has failed!"

"The twelfth defensive node is low on energy!"

"Quick! Quickly replenish the energy crystals!"

The shouts of the Commanders echoed across the battlefield one after another.

But everyone knew that at this rate, it was only a matter of time before the defense line was breached.

Just then, a figure slowly walked to the very front of the battlefield.

Lin Yuan.

His pace was relaxed and casual, as if he were not walking toward a battlefield, but strolling in his own garden.

Behind him, Su Li and the others followed closely.

As for Xu Xingmian, she was being half-pushed and half-dragged by Cold Moon, her face deathly pale, her legs weak.

"Con... Consultant Lin Yuan!"

When the frontline Commander saw Lin Yuan's figure, it was as if he had seen a savior.

"You've finally arrived!"

He ran over quickly and reported urgently, "The situation is not looking good! The onslaught of these Snow Fiends is too fierce; we can hold on for at most half an hour!"

Lin Yuan nodded, his gaze passing over him to look at the Snow Fiends that were frantically attacking the barrier.

"You've worked hard."

His voice was calmly reassuring.

"From here on, leave it to me."

After speaking, he turned around and looked at Xu Xingmian, who was behind him, terrified and pale.

"Are you ready?"

How could Xu Xingmian be ready?

She looked at those demonic-looking Snow Fiends ahead, her legs trembling.

"I... I really can't do this!"

She said with a trembling voice, "I'm just an ordinary star, I don't know anything about fighting!"

"Who told you to fight?"

Lin Yuan rolled his eyes, "I said, you only need to sing."
