On the eve of battle, they poured out their hearts to each other, their deep bond unwavering.

On the defensive line of the Far North Glaciers, the bonfires burned throughout the night. The smoke of battle gradually dispersed, and the joy of victory overflowed on everyone's faces. But in the hearts of Su Chen and The women, there was not the slightest relaxation. They knew that the retreat of the Destruction God King and the Greed God King was only temporary. The upper echelons of the God Realm would surely dispatch a more powerful force to invade the Douluo Continent.

Tonight was the final night before the decisive battle.

Su Chen and The women sat around the bonfire, with the Titan Giant Ape and the Sky Azure Bull Python sitting beside them. The light of the bonfire reflected on their faces; everyone's expression carried a hint of exhaustion, yet also revealed a gentle smile.

"Do you still remember when we first met?"

Su Chen's voice rang out gently, his gaze falling on Xiao Wu's face as his fingertips lightly brushed the stray hairs by her temples.

Xiao Wu's eyes instantly lit up, and pink-black Soft Bone Soul Power danced lightly at her fingertips. She shrank into Su Chen's arms, resting her head on his shoulder, her voice as soft and sweet as a marshmallow: "Of course I remember! Back then, I was being hunted by the people of Spirit Hall, and the Soul Locking Curse was acting up, hurting like death. You suddenly appeared, blocking in front of me like a beam of light. You even touched my rabbit ears and said, 'Follow me from now on, no one will dare to curse you again'."

She raised her head, her nose rubbing against Su Chen's chin, a mischievous glint in her eyes: "You also said that once I beat Xiao Ling, you'd buy me candied hawthorn. In the end, you not only bought the candied hawthorn but also helped me completely break the Soul Locking Curse. Brother Su Chen, at that moment, I thought to myself that I would follow you for the rest of my life."

Su Chen let out a low laugh, his palm gently rubbing her rabbit ears. The touch was soft and warm, causing Xiao Wu to let out a soft hum. "Silly girl, back then you were so foolish that you bit me and called me a lecher."

"I was just being shy!" Xiao Wu pouted and playfully punched his chest, drawing a burst of light laughter from The women.

Zhu Zhuqing sat to one side, black Shadow Power circulating faintly around her body. She watched the jumping flames of the bonfire, her cold features softening slightly, her voice carrying a hint of imperceptible tenderness: "I remember the first time I saw you was at the border of the Star Luo Empire. You stopped me and said you would help me escape the control of the Star Luo Imperial Family, the price being that I would become your Shadow Knight."

She turned to look at Su Chen, the tips of her ears quietly turning red: "You even deliberately leaned close to me back then, your breath brushing past my ear as you said, 'Concentrate, or I'll have to punish you.' At that time, I thought you were very frivolous, but later I realized that you were the only one who didn't care about my status in the Star Luo Imperial Family and only treated me as Zhu Zhuqing."

Su Chen reached out and held her hand, his fingertips touching her slightly cool skin. "Zhuqing, you were never anyone's accessory. You are my Shadow Knight and the person I trust most."

Zhu Zhuqing's fingers curled slightly as she gripped his hand back, a faint smile curving her lips, her cold eyes filled with starlight.

Ning Rongrong held the Nine Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda, the golden light from the pagoda making her cheeks flush red. She shook Su Chen's arm, her voice charming: "Brother Su Chen, I remember the top of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School's pagoda! Back then, the Sect Elders were forcing me into an arranged marriage. It was you who took me to break through the Sect and even helped me break the shackles of the Seven Treasure, allowing my pagoda to evolve into the Nine Treasure."

She stood on her tiptoes and leaned close to Su Chen's ear, her breath like orchids: "I stood on my tiptoes and kissed you then, asking if that was enough to repay you. You even held me and spun me around, saying my Rongrong was the best. At that moment, I vowed that my pagoda would always shine for you and always be your exclusive support."

Su Chen pinched her cheek; the touch was delicate and soft. "Rongrong's amplification has always been my most solid support."

Qian Renxue's long golden hair draped over her shoulders, and Angel Fire burned quietly in her palm. She looked at Su Chen, her gaze gentle and firm: "Our first meeting was in the illusion of the Angel God Temple. I was trapped in the shackles of the God Position, thinking the Angel God Position was my everything. It was you who broke into the illusion, held my hand, and said, 'Then be my Nishen Angel'."

She reached out and caressed Su Chen's cheek, her voice soft: "The moment I gave up the God Position, I never once regretted it. Because I know that a cold God Position is far from being as warm as your embrace. Su Chen, I am willing to be your Nishen Angel and burn everything for you."

Su Chen held her hand and gave it a gentle kiss: "Qian Renxue, you are not a believer of the Angel God; you are simply my Qian Renxue."

The wound on Yun Yun's severed arm had almost healed. Green Wind Blade power circulated at her fingertips. She looked at Su Chen with a smile of relief in her eyes: "I remember the old site of the Cloud Mist Sect. Back then, I had just lost my Sect and was full of confusion. You stayed with me to drink and listened to my grievances. I asked you if I was useless, and you pinched my chin, saying that in your heart, I was stronger than anyone."

She leaned against Su Chen's shoulder, her voice carrying a hint of laziness: "At that moment, I knew I was no longer alone. With you around, I have a home."

Su Chen put his arm around her shoulder and patted it gently. "Yun'er, this will always be your home."

Xiao Xun Er's colorful Phoenix fire jumped in her palm. She looked at Su Chen, her eyes full of burning love: "Brother Su Chen, I remember bathing together in the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well. Back then, when my Heavenly Flame evolved, you held me and said my Heavenly Flame would only burn for you. I still want to say now, my Heavenly Flame will forever burn only for you."

Xiao Yi Xian's face carried a hint of shyness. She clutched the corner of her clothes, her voice soft: "Brother Su Chen, I remember the Poison Mist Valley. You helped me control my Poison Body, and we embraced in the Poison Mist. I kissed you and said my poison would only harm your enemies from then on. I still say the same thing now: for you, I am willing to do anything."

Ah Yin's long blue hair fluttered in the wind, and vines of Blue Silver Grass gently wound around Su Chen's wrist. Her voice was so gentle it could almost drip water: "Su Chen, I remember the Spring of Life. I told you I wanted to give birth to a baby for you. You said that once the God Realm was overthrown, you'd take me into seclusion and raise a group of little Su Chens. This promise, you mustn't forget."

Hanabi, Kushina, Karin, Qing Lin, Zi Yan, Medusa, Hinata... The women spoke up one after another, recounting their first meetings with Su Chen and those warm moments. Every story carried deep love, and every gaze was full of profound bonds.

Beside the bonfire, a warm atmosphere spread out.

Su Chen looked at The women beside him; their faces appeared exceptionally beautiful under the reflection of the firelight. A warm current surged in his heart, and his eyes turned slightly red.

"Thank you all," Su Chen's voice carried a hint of a sob. "Thank you for staying by my side, and thank you for being willing to stand with me against the God Realm. Without you, I am nothing."

Xiao Wu reached out and wiped the moisture from the corners of his eyes, her voice carrying a hint of heartache: "Brother Su Chen, you're not allowed to say such things. We are a family, and a family must be together, living and dying as one."

"Yes! Living and dying as one!" The women said in unison, their gazes firm.

Su Chen took a deep breath, suppressing the emotion in his heart. He looked at The women, his voice resonant and powerful: "When this war is over, we will hold a grand wedding. I will take your hands and walk through every corner of the Douluo Continent. We will go to the Black Forest to see the moonlight, to the Star Dou Great Forest to see the Spring of Life, to the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School to see the sea of clouds... We will have a home, a home filled with love."

The women's eyes shimmered with tears as they nodded one after another.

Ning Rongrong suddenly spoke: "Brother Su Chen, when we win, you have to comb my hair."

"And buy me candied hawthorn!" Xiao Wu chimed in.

"I want you to practice swordplay with me," Yun Yun said.

"I want you to watch the stars with me," Medusa said, her eyes as seductive as silk.

Su Chen laughed and agreed: "Alright! I promise all of you! Whatever you want, I will give it to you!"

The bonfire burned brighter and brighter, illuminating the entire Far North Glaciers. The women gathered around Su Chen, some leaning on his shoulder, some holding his hand, and some nestling in his embrace.

They chatted, spoke words of love, and reminisced about every bit of the past. Those warm moments, those sweet interactions, and those times of life and death together all turned into the strongest bonds, firmly tying them and Su Chen together.

The night gradually deepened, and the cold wind howled, yet it could not disperse the warmth by the bonfire.

Su Chen looked at the sleeping women beside him; their faces bore smiles of peace. He reached out and gently took them into his arms, his gaze looking toward the Gate of the God Realm on the horizon, a firm light flashing in his eyes.

Tomorrow would be the day of the final battle.

Regardless of how dangerous the road ahead, no matter how powerful the enemy, he would protect the people beside him and protect this continent.

Because he knew that behind him were the people he loved most.

And this bond was as deep as the sea, never to change.
