"Another knight?" Upon encountering the handsome student for the first time with such an attitude, Yang Xiaoyou couldn't help but think of the White Mouse, Wang Chong, who was contributing to the cause of science.
He felt a bit speechless. Feng Lin and Meng Lu indeed had a high popularity, but admiration was one thing; most of the time, it resembled the ordinary infatuation that Zhao Xinglong displayed last time—just a natural instinct to pursue beautiful things, wanting to show off a little.
Encountering a Wang Chong was surprising enough, but meeting another one in such a short time felt like bad luck. Moreover, from the looks of this fellow, he didn’t seem to be fixated on Feng Lin at all.
Seeing that guy who had just come out, betraying teammates and threatening companions, merely froze for a moment upon hearing his words and then looked at him suspiciously without releasing the hostage he had taken.
Chen Long also felt a surge of anger. He had some doubts about Cao Youcai's words earlier, but now seeing the other party dawdling just to gain an advantage dispelled any lingering skepticism.
Seeing an opportunity before him, Cao Youcai's eyes lit up, and he seized the moment to say, "Do you still have the face to come here? Do you even have the nerve after they died? If it weren't for you, at least one of those three could have escaped!"
Hearing Cao Youcai's words, Yang Xiaoyou was somewhat surprised. Did this fellow realize his strength? However, if he truly knew, he shouldn't be saying that only one out of three could survive.
Having just arrived and already facing such a turn of events, Yang Xiaoyou's mind raced. Although it turned quickly, various thoughts flashed through his head; ultimately, he still lacked clarity.
He could only respond somewhat helplessly, "How would I know that thing would come to our camp? At least during my watch duty at night, I was diligent. Although I feel regret for what happened to those three, I hope you won't unjustly accuse me."
Yang Xiaoyou wasn't a masochist. Although he felt a bit sad upon seeing those corpses, he wouldn't take on blame for no reason or fall into self-reproach. They were not related to him; he could only feel a bit sorry.
Gradually, through the expressions around the camp, Yang Xiaoyou seemed to grasp something vaguely. Even Liu Shaoqiang, that taciturn fellow, and Wang Xincheng, that honest kid, seemed inexplicably dissatisfied with him. This definitely wasn't something he could have caused by just appearing; it shouldn't have been brought out by Feng Lin either.
Initially, they at least knew that he was acquainted with Feng Lin but hadn't shown such emotions before.
"Being diligent during your watch duty? Ha! Can you explain where you were during that time? Where were you when the giant wolf appeared?!" Hearing Yang Xiaoyou's uncertain response due to his lack of understanding of the situation and not taking a firm denial stance, Cao Youcai realized that he had already succeeded halfway. By the time Yang Xiaoyou reacted to what was happening, it would be too late! It seemed like he had already pinned him down!
"Shut up." Having realized that something was off, Yang Xiaoyou coldly reprimanded the overly excited fellow, completely disregarding the rest of Cao Youcai's words. She then turned to Wang Luoyan and asked, "Washboard, what exactly is going on? Has this fellow done something else here?"
Although the term "Washboard" struck Wang Luoyan like a dagger, she still gritted her teeth and relayed Cao Youcai's words. The others merely watched with cold indifference, not opposing anything.
"Oh, so you mean this fellow has inexplicably placed the blame on me?"
"Honestly, I don't care if I flee at the last moment."
"If you all get killed, that's your problem, not mine."
"But did I actually threaten that Han Yan? Don't mistake me for someone who is desperate."
"No wonder that fellow's corpse looked like that. Hmm, Wu Yue's body is still beside her. After that, you must have tricked Wu Yue into checking things out, right? Otherwise, there's no way you all could have escaped while leaving that child behind."
Upon realizing the situation, Yang Xiaoyou couldn't help but show a helpless expression. Was it really fair to be unjustly blamed like this?
Thinking back to the state of the corpse and how this fellow had shifted the blame onto her, Yang Xiaoyou understood that this fellow must have been dealing with that woman when the giant wolf appeared. To escape, he likely deceived Wu Yue into going to her death to buy time.
Initially, Yang Xiaoyou thought this had nothing to do with her; it was all about survival. However, she didn't expect this fellow to shift the negative consequences directly onto her.
As she took a step forward at the beginning of each segment, she eventually found herself standing in front of Cao Youcai with a somewhat dazed Feng Lin on her back.
"Haha, how amusing! It's as if you specifically went to check the corpse. You don't mean to say you actually wanted to hunt down that giant wolf and followed its trail here?" Feeling an immense pressure from Yang Xiaoyou and recalling her earlier words, Cao Youcai couldn't help but wear a sinister smirk.
Seeing the ethereal woman he carried so intimately only intensified a wild sense of jealousy within his heart.
After finishing, it was not over. Taking advantage of the opponent's proximity, he threw a hook punch directly at Yang Xiaoyou's abdomen.
The punch whistled through the air, and a normal person would likely have their intestines ruptured from such a blow.
With this seemingly inconspicuous yet vicious strike, Cao Youcai's face twisted into a grimace. In this environment, even if he accidentally killed his opponent, it would be easy to find an excuse to get away with it!
However, just as the attack was about to land, Cao Youcai inexplicably felt his hand lighten. The strike had clearly traveled farther than he had anticipated. When he finally felt a tangible impact, an excruciating pain shot through him.
"Ah!"
Bending over and clutching his wrist, Cao Youcai realized that his arm had vanished from the wrist down!
The reason he felt that extra distance was because his wrist had detached and continued moving forward, the severed end colliding with his opponent and leaving a bloodstain on the Camouflage Uniform. How could that not be unforgettable?
"Oh? You're awake," Yang Xiaoyou remarked, surprised that this guy had guessed how he had approached. Originally, he had just planned to casually break Cao Youcai's arm, but unexpectedly, while under attack, Feng Lin—who had been dazed on his back—seemed to have woken up.
The subsequent movement was almost instinctual as he made a swift cut.
