   Sikong Zhen violently pushed Ma Chao against the city wall. He looked at the undisguised fire in Ma Chao's eyes. That was an existence that made his heart palpitate more than any other demon species. "You want to know?" His voice was trembling without even noticing it, but the thunder in his palm gently wrapped around Ma Chao's wrist, "Then just watch." The sunset completely sank into the horizon. On the tower, thunder and gun shadows intertwined into vague outlines. Ma Chao could feel Sikong Zhen's kiss, with the heat of thunder and lightning, falling on the old scar on his collarbone, while his fingertips were digging into the other person's solid back, where there were traces of years of armor, but at this moment they were slightly hot from his touch. "So..." Ma Chao gasped, and the silver gun fell to the ground with a crisp sound, "The pillar of the country will also be shaken." Sikong Zhen did not answer, but blocked his words with a deeper kiss. The thunder in the palm turned into a fine current, spreading along Ma Chao's waistline. Wherever it passed, the boy's trembling and low breathing were caught in the wind.
