   There's no time to mourn Chen Ping'an. Next up is the chosen one of the gods, the returnee from another world, the aloof savior, the supreme leader of the Fire Moths, whose heart is only for his homeland. He strikes hard against Herrschers, he strikes hard against his friends, and he activates his Flame Fist against his teammates (the protagonist doesn't appear, he's completely devoid of emotion). The protagonist suppresses his emotions to get home, because emotions would affect his journey. As long as efficiency is paramount, he can get home a second faster, so he won't waste any time. Efficiency is his priority, which is a form of suppressing emotions. But by chapters 70 to 80, the emotions are completely gone. It's a sacrifice. It's not a dark story, but it's cold-blooded, with about 80% of the content. The only sweet moment is when the protagonist is sleeping and being fed by the female leads.
