"What... do you want?" I asked warily. This woman seemed to have ill intentions; those who come with good intentions rarely show up unannounced. I had to be careful not to end up being sold out while helping her count the money.
"Of course... I'm here to catch you," Xie Yutong said with a smile, her tone grating on my nerves. I felt an urge to punch her twice just to show her why flowers bloom so beautifully.
"You... think you can escape?" Xie Yutong paused and added, her voice teasing like she was playing with a lamb destined for slaughter. "Today... I've prepared a special 'life and death test' just for you!"
Life and death test?
A chill ran down my spine. That name sounded ominous.
Could this woman really be planning to kill me?
I mean, how could a green tea girl be so ruthless?
Have green tea girls evolved now, able not only to ensnare men but also to kill?
"Life and death test?" I feigned calmness, trying to sound relaxed while mentally plotting my escape route. The best strategy was to run, after all. "What... is this life and death test?"
"You'll find out soon enough," Xie Yutong said with a mysterious smile that sent shivers down my spine, making me feel like something bad was about to happen. "But first... let me see your 'strength'!"
As soon as she finished speaking, she vanished from sight, reappearing right in front of me in an instant. Her speed was astonishing; if I hadn't reacted quickly, she would have slapped me against the wall.
My heart raced. This woman was indeed formidable!
No wonder she could claim the title of Green Tea Queen; with speed like that, it would be a shame if she didn't work as a courier!
She might even break records and become the fastest delivery person in the world.
I quickly dodged, narrowly avoiding Xie Yutong's attack. If she had hit me, I wouldn't just be injured—I might not survive!
"Wei Na," Xie Yutong's voice was soft as a feather, yet carried an undeniable authority. The contrast was almost overwhelming. "You... can't escape. Just surrender quietly!"
Surrender?
I scoffed. There was no way I would ever give in!
If she wanted me to surrender, she'd have to wait until the next life!
I grabbed Zhong Dali again and dashed toward the exit of the underground space. I couldn't stay here any longer; I had to get out fast, or my life would be in danger!
I wondered if Zhong Dali could keep up with my speed. He better not slow me down!
"Trying to run?" Xie Yutong sneered, her voice chilling, as if it had come straight from hell. "It's not that easy!"
Xie Yutong pursued me again, her speed even faster than before, like a bolt of lightning. Was she part rabbit or something? She could run so fast!
Honestly, it was a shame she wasn't competing in the Olympics with that kind of speed!
I pushed myself to the limit, running for my life this time—my very existence depended on it!
Just then, I suddenly heard a loud explosion behind me, a deafening sound that shook the air like something had detonated.
I turned around and saw Zhong Dali, who was being attacked by Nightingale and Xie Yutong in a desperate situation. This kid, why is he so reckless!
What the hell!
Zhong Dali!
This foolish boy… why is he so impulsive!
Taking on two opponents alone? Isn’t that asking for death?
I silently cursed in my heart; it seemed that today… there was no escaping this disaster!
What a mess this is!
If I had known, I wouldn’t have come to this damned place!
Just as I was about to rush back to save Zhong Dali, Xie Yutong suddenly appeared in front of me, blocking my path. This woman just wouldn’t let go!
"Wei Na," Xie Yutong said with a smile that resembled a carnivorous flower—beautiful yet dangerous, "your… 'life and death trial'… is now… officially starting!"
Xie Yutong's eyes sparkled, sending chills down my spine. "Long time no see."
Long time no see?
I inwardly scoffed; it had only been a few hours since we last met, right? Isn’t that a bit of an exaggeration?
Does it really need to be so dramatic? If someone didn’t know better, they’d think we hadn’t seen each other for centuries.
"What... do you want?" I asked warily, feeling that this woman had ulterior motives, like a wolf in sheep's clothing, ready to deliver a fatal blow at any moment.
"Of course... I'm here to catch you," Xie Yutong said with a light laugh, her voice grating on my nerves, making me want to punch her twice.
Catch me?
I scoffed; there was no way I would ever surrender! Want to catch me? Not in this lifetime!
"Alright then," Xie Yutong giggled, her laughter so lively that one might think she had just won the lottery. "Let's see if you can escape!"
A chill ran down my spine. This woman... could she really be serious? No way! Surely no one thinks I'm an easy target!
I quickly grabbed Zhong Dali, preparing to make a run for it. The best strategy is to retreat! As long as there's life, there's hope!
"Thinking of running away?" Xie Yutong flashed in front of me in an instant, her speed astonishing. I couldn't help but wonder if she had secretly installed a rocket booster. "Not so easy!"
I silently cursed; this woman... was she part rabbit? Had she eaten something that made her unstoppable?
She was running faster than Bolt!
I quickly dodged, narrowly avoiding Xie Yutong's attack. Thankfully, my reflexes were sharp; otherwise, I would have been done for today.
"Wei Na," Xie Yutong's voice was soft as a feather but carried an undeniable authority. What a contrast! "You can't escape; just surrender quietly!"
Surrender?
I scoffed again; there was no way I would ever give in! The only time I'd surrender is when pigs fly!
I pulled Zhong Dali once more, rushing toward the exit of the underground space, hoping to find a glimmer of hope.
“Wei Na,” Xie Yutong said leisurely, as if everything was under her control, “You can’t escape. This place… is already surrounded by my people.”
Surrounded?
I silently cursed in my heart; this woman really overestimated me! With my meager skills, I could be surrounded? Surely, she was just toying with me!
Anyone who didn’t know would think I was the leader of a terrorist group!
“Is that so?” I forced myself to sound calm, pretending to be relaxed. “Then… let’s see what happens!”
Xie Yutong didn’t respond; she merely curled her lips into a chilling smile that sent shivers down my spine.
Suddenly, I felt a powerful force surging from all directions, making it hard for me to breathe. I turned around and saw that, at some point, dozens of soldiers in black uniforms had appeared around me. They wielded various weapons and looked fierce and intimidating—definitely not the kind of people you wanted to mess with.
What the hell!
This situation… was way too intense! Anyone would think we were about to start a world war!
It seemed… today… was going to end badly for me! I silently lit a candle for myself.
I couldn’t help but feel despair; this time… it was really over! Was my promising life really going to end like this?
At that moment, Xie Yutong suddenly spoke up. “Wei Na,” she smiled like a cunning fox, as if victory was already in her grasp. “I’ll give you a chance. As long as you agree to join us, I can… spare your life.”
Join them?
I scoffed inwardly. This woman... truly had delusions of grandeur! There was no way I would join them—unless the sun rose in the west!
"Xie Yutong," I said coldly, my tone dripping with disdain, "you should give up on that idea! I will not join you!"
"Oh, really?" Xie Yutong's expression darkened instantly, like the unpredictable weather in June. "Then don’t blame me for being rude!"
With a single command from Xie Yutong, soldiers around us charged toward me and Zhong Dali like a pack of hungry wolves pouncing on their prey.
I silently cursed my luck; this time... it was really over! My life, my dreams, my love—was it all going to go to waste?
I quickly grabbed Zhong Dali and dashed toward the other side of the underground space, hoping to find an escape route. Even if there was only a glimmer of hope, I had to seize it!
However, the underground space was a tangled maze, and we flailed about like headless flies, unable to find an exit, lost in a vast labyrinth.
Just then, I suddenly heard Zhong Dali scream. I turned back to see him caught by a soldier, unable to move—like a lamb waiting for slaughter.
"Zhong Dali!" My heart tightened as I rushed over, determined to save him. I would risk my life if necessary!
But before I could get close, several soldiers surrounded me like an iron barrel, leaving no room for escape.
"Wei Na," Xie Yutong's voice rang out again, filled with mockery and derision. "You might as well surrender quietly! Otherwise... your friend will suffer!"
I cursed inwardly; this woman was truly ruthless! She was using Zhong Dali to threaten me!
I gritted my teeth and ultimately decided to surrender.
After all... Zhong Dali's life was more important than mine. I couldn't just stand by and watch him get hurt because of me.
I took a deep breath and slowly raised my hands in surrender.
"That's more like it," Xie Yutong smiled, looking like a cat that had just caught its prey, filled with pride and satisfaction. "If you had listened earlier... it would have been much better, wouldn't it?"
Just then, I suddenly felt a powerful force coming from behind me. I turned around to see Nightingale charging towards Xie Yutong, moving with incredible speed, like a lightning bolt cutting through the night sky.
As soon as the words left her mouth, a mutated zombie was released. This zombie was massive, covered in sharp spikes, looking fierce and menacing. It was clear that this creature was not to be trifled with. Where on earth did it escape from?
What the hell!
This woman... really wants to kill me!
I silently cursed in my heart; it seemed that today... I was truly done for!
This green tea is way too ruthless!
"Wei Na," Xie Yutong said with a smile, her tone as if she were enjoying a good show. "Let me see... how you plan to 'survive'!"
I took another deep breath, trying hard to calm myself down. Now was not the time to be afraid!
I had to find a way... to survive!
Looking at the mutated zombie before me, a bold idea suddenly struck me. I... could... devour it!
I went all out!
I activated "Soul Devouring Immunity Evolution" and charged towards the mutated zombie. It was a do-or-die moment!
The mutated zombie let out a roar that sounded like it came straight from hell, sending chills down my spine as it lunged at me with terrifying force.
I dodged its attack and sank my teeth into its neck. The sensation was truly extraordinary!
A powerful surge of energy flowed into my body, feeling as if I were being recharged, filling me with vitality!
I felt… my body… undergoing a transformation!
I… was becoming… stronger!
I looked at Xie Yutong again, confidence shining in my eyes. Now it was my turn to strike back!
"Xie Yutong," I sneered, "your… 'Life and Death Trial'… is nothing but child's play for me!"
Xie Yutong's expression changed slightly, clearly taken aback by my newfound strength. That look on their face was truly delightful!
I charged at the mutated zombie once more, determined to completely annihilate it this time!
I swung my fists, landing powerful blows on the mutated zombie. The feeling was exhilarating!
The mutated zombie let out a shriek that resembled a cat whose tail had been stepped on—piercing and tragic—as it collapsed to the ground. Now you should behave yourself!
I… had won!
Xie Yutong looked at me, his eyes filled with complex emotions that were truly intriguing.
"Wei Na," Xie Yutong said, "you… really are… something else!"
I let out a cold laugh, remaining silent. I knew… this was just… the beginning!
I still had a long way to go!
I would definitely… become stronger!
I would definitely… survive!
Just as I was immersed in the joy of victory, I suddenly felt a chilling presence behind me. This feeling… was ominous!
I turned around sharply, only to see…
