And to achieve this, Chu Yunyi utilized his abilities.

NO.2 [Shadow Clone] and NO.14 [Welcome and Farewell].

With the help of these two abilities.

Chu Yunyi first had his Shadow Clone enter the riverbed, then he himself used [Welcome and Farewell] on the bridge to swap positions with it.

And after being in the riverbed.

Chu Yunyi swapped positions with the Wrath patient again, now finding himself at the river's surface.

Finally, Chu Yunyi, who was on the river surface, swapped positions with the Shadow Clone on the bridge, completing the cycle.

This was one Reincarnation.

As long as there was no external influence, the Wrath patient's fate was a dead end, with no way to break free.

Of course.

This was only achievable after Chu Yunyi had the Wrath patient expend a large amount of stamina.

If it were a full-power Wrath patient.

Neither blinded by rage nor possessing an absolute stamina advantage, it could have easily dived to the riverbed, pushed off, and leaped out of the water.

Moreover.

As long as it could take even a single breath, this Wrath patient would have had the means to continue wearing Chu Yunyi down.

At that time.

It wouldn't be easy to kill the Wrath patient so effortlessly.

But now.

Chu Yunyi looked around but couldn't see a single door.

This was a bit troublesome.

Without a doorknob, he couldn't use NO.1 [Void Door].

In the distance.

Within Chu Yunyi's sight, he could see two fighter jets flying at high speed, occasionally creating sonic booms, looking quite urgent.

"Huh? Is there some mission?"

Chu Yunyi glanced at them twice and decided to leave.

NO.14 [Welcome and Farewell] activated again.

Chu Yunyi's eyesight was excellent; even in vision tests, the smallest text on the last line was perfectly clear to him.

With such superior vision, using NO.14 [Welcome and Farewell] was even more convenient.

"If I were nearsighted..."

"Wouldn't this ability be half-crippled?"

Chu Yunyi thought unconsciously, but his intention didn't stop; he directly wanted to find a door and go home.

After all, he had killed a powerful Wrath patient, and he estimated his control would increase significantly this time.

But at this moment.

Suddenly.

Chu Yunyi felt his whole body tense up, as if danger was approaching.

It wasn't the distant fighter jets; those two were heading elsewhere in Yunzhou City, so they weren't coming for him.

"What's going on?"

"This inexplicable sense of unease..."

Chu Yunyi felt something was very wrong; his intuition was usually very accurate.

So accurate, in fact, that it could be considered an ability on its own.

Everyone possessed some degree of this sixth sense.

But Chu Yunyi's sixth sense was incredibly exaggerated, to the point where in battle royale games, even without hearing footsteps or gunshots, he could sense someone approaching and gain the advantage.

It was to the extent that teammates would think he was cheating.

And now.

This wasn't some simple game, but a real battle!

Chu Yunyi's alarm bells were ringing; he felt something was terribly wrong.

"Something's wrong."

"I need to find a door first."

This was a rare moment of uncertainty for Chu Yunyi. He hadn't panicked when he killed Gluttony patients without any special abilities.

He hadn't panicked when facing groups of Envy patients.

When facing an unbeatable Wrath patient, he remained calm, even having the leisure to tease a few words.

But now.

Chu Yunyi felt something was terribly wrong!

As expected!

The situation took a sharp turn for the worse!

A lazy voice emerged, sounding somewhat listless, but with an even greater arrogance.

Extreme arrogance!

"Heh heh, Chu Yunyi, oh Chu Yunyi."

"Why the panic?"

Upon hearing this, Chu Yunyi felt as if his heart had been pricked by a needle, and he abruptly turned his head to look.

'Boom!'

A massive palm slammed down, directly engulfing Chu Yunyi's entire body!

NO.14 [Welcome and Farewell]!

Glancing at a nearby streetlight, Chu Yunyi dodged with a flash.

Looking again.

Within his line of sight, at some unknown point, another Wrath patient had appeared.

No...

Chu Yunyi looked around, one, two, three!

Three colossal Wrath patients had him tightly surrounded, his vision filled only with giant walls of flesh!

And the source of the voice.

It was from above one of the Wrath patients; Chu Yunyi looked up abruptly!

It was... a Human!

Moreover, it was an ordinary-looking youth, around sixteen years old, the age of youthful vigor.

And the words calling Chu Yunyi's name had come from his mouth!

Chu Yunyi's eyes were filled with confusion and bewilderment.

As if sensing this, the youth spoke directly:

"Heh, are you confused?"

"Well then."

"I'll explain it to you, so at least you can die with understanding."

As he spoke, the youth began to ramble, his eyes filled with absolute self-confidence.

Classic villain monologue.

No one calls my name, could it be... Chu Yunyi thought, already piecing together most of it in his mind.

But now.

The youth spoke again, recounting his story in a narrative fashion:

"My name is Xia Tian, and I lived in an orphanage."

"My name isn't strange; it's because the director took me in during the summer, so I was named Xia Tian."

"If she had taken me in during winter, I might have been named Dong Tian, hehe..."

"But don't look at me with pity; the treatment for orphans now is better than for most salarymen."

"A living subsidy of 2100 yuan per month, and housing assistance that can be reimbursed up to 600, hehe."

"And you get a life tutor, like a maid."

Feeling as if he had said too much, Xia Tian changed the subject:

"Want to know how I know you?"

"Because you, Chu Yunyi..."

"You personally killed me!!"

Xia Tian looked at Chu Yunyi, his face filled with a manic expression, his features twisted to the extreme, saliva involuntarily dripping down.

"Heh heh!"

"Thanks to Lord Seven-Day Demon King Mo Xun, I was able to successfully infiltrate Blue Star's self-salvation program."

"That's how I was reborn!"

"And thanks to Lord Mo Xun's gift, I am now covered head to toe with all seven viruses!"

"Seven Deadly Sins Virus!"

As he spoke, Xia Tian leaned down, gazing at Chu Yunyi as if from a great height:

"If you are the one who can eradicate the Apocalypse."

"Then... I am the one who can destroy you!"

"Now, die..."

Xia Tian felt a bit parched, unable to fully express his emotions despite saying quite a bit.

However.

Chu Yunyi didn't seem to be buying it at all.

He saw...

Chu Yunyi indifferently picked at his earwax, saying with an impatient expression:

"Are you done?"

"I hate these cliché plots the most, like rebirth or revenge, so boring."

Xia Tian was taken aback.

He himself was the wielder of the Pride Virus, but now...

He only felt...

That Chu Yunyi before him was even more arrogant than he was!
