Big Fish Eat Little Fish (2)

Zhou Zhi had not expected this scene.

Although he had previously evaluated the so-called Seven Shining Stars as tyrannical and terrifying, Zhou Zhi still had not expected the newcomer to kill so casually.

According to his preliminary deductions about this world, there should be a so-called Epidemic Suppression Order.

At the very least, one should absolutely not be allowed to kill at will.

But now, the Chen Chaosheng before his eyes had struck directly.

More importantly...

He was now in danger.

"Pah."

Chen Yao walked up and kicked Wu Ji's headless body twice, then put on a fawning expression: "Brother, you've come."

Chen Chaosheng's expression was icy, his mood feeling pitch-black: "Do you know that your affairs have wasted a great deal of time?"

"I was in the middle of hunting down an important person; if not for you, I would have already killed her."

Chen Yao scratched her head, her shrill voice ringing out: "What can be done about that? Father said you have to protect me well."

Chen Chaosheng only found her noisy.

But in this world, not everything went according to one's own wishes.

At the very least, he had no way to lay a hand on this illegitimate daughter, even if he felt not a shred of affection for her.

"Let's go. I will notify the Changdu Epidemic War Corps about the matters here."

Chen Yao knew better than to go against her brother's wishes too much; she nodded lightly, but her brow suddenly flickered: "Brother."

"Right!"

"Help me!"

"Help me kill this person!"

The woman's finger pointed into the distance.

At Zhou Zhi.

The young girl's eyes were filled with malice, those slender eyes resembling two venomous snakes.

Zhou Zhi stood where he was.

As expected.

That woman with such heavy baleful energy actually wanted to kill him.

For people like her, sometimes, no reason was needed to want someone dead.

Zhou Zhi roughly understood that his previous attitude had annoyed this woman, but in any case, it should not have escalated to the point of murder.

And Chen Chaosheng.

Moved.

That killing intent spread like mist.

Under the moonlight illuminating the canopy.

This Seven Shining Star did not even ask why Chen Yao wanted to kill this person.

"After you go back, go see Father."

Chen Chaosheng said coldly, not even looking directly at Zhou Zhi: "He misses you."

"Alright then,"

Chen Yao stuck out her tongue: "Good brother, hurry up and kill him, then we can go home right away."

Zhou Zhi rarely heard such words.

They made one's entire body turn cold.

Zhou Zhi's gaze fluctuated.

And ahead, Chen Chaosheng approached.

The opponent was an existence capable of easily killing Qiu Ti; his strength was far greater than his own.

To survive, he had to resolve this predicament.

Zhou Zhi's expression was calm.

"I am about to die."

The man said softly.

"Are you still not coming out?"

"If you don't come out now, I will really be dead."

Chen Chaosheng did not speak, continuing to walk forward.

Perhaps he had gone mad.

Ordinary people like ants always put on such unsightly performances in the face of the terror of death.

Killing a guy like this didn't even require the Black Kite.

A smile played on Chen Yao's face; she loved seeing expressions like that.

At this moment.

In the hall.

A sound rang out.

A woman's voice echoed.

Melodious, moving, and laced with a hint of allure.

"Interesting."

"Truly interesting."

"To think I would run into someone like you in a place like this."

Chen Chaosheng's pupils dilated slightly, and in an instant, he drew the scalpel from his hand.

His black clothes fluttered as he braced himself for a formidable foe!!

The palpitations of his heart were heavy with dread.

Zhou Zhi raised his hand.

From the shadows behind him.

Footsteps sounded.

A perfect face appeared.

"Miss Xia Yu."

Zhou Zhi's voice was devoid of any emotion: "I find it interesting as well."

Dressed in a beige coat, the young girl lacked a bit of her usual liveliness, replaced by a touch of bewitching charm.

"Brother, let's just kill them both."

Behind her, Chen Yao waved her hand.

Chen Chaosheng's gaze had already darkened.

That strange sense of threat.

Zhou Zhi's eyes landed behind the girl.

"How did you figure it out?"

Xia Yu asked with a smile, radiating an extraordinary charm toward Zhou Zhi.

"As a saint, you should at least understand that leaving the clinic to explore the Pestilence Zone is a task with a very low survival rate."

"Even if your actions were righteous and noble... the result was... everyone died."

"I find that point quite interesting."

Zhou Zhi said: "That is the first reason."

"Second."

"Qiu Ti once mentioned that a woman, the Messenger of God, gave him the idea for this Plague Ritual... Murderers generally have a habit of returning to the scene of the crime. If I had to choose among those present, it is very likely to be you."

Xia Yu listened with great interest.

A smile appeared on her perfect face: "You are gambling, too."

Zhou Zhi did not commit to an answer.

He did not mention the most important reason.

And that was.

From beginning to end, Xia Yu's disease progression value had never risen.

It remained in the single digits, a piece of information only he could obtain.

Xia Yu tilted her head slightly, her crescent-moon brows arching: "Although it was outside the plan, I like you."

"Like a touch of hyaluronic acid injected into a chin, that little something in a perfect curve..."

Not far away.

Chen Chaosheng's expression was grim.

"Who... exactly are you?"

It seemed as if it was only then that Xia Yu noticed Chen Chaosheng.

"Ah, I forgot to introduce myself."

Xia Yu bowed slightly, her movements extremely elegant.

"Xia Yu."

A Plague-Slaying Blade slowly emerged from the woman's sleeve.

What a Plague-Slaying Blade it was.

Entirely emerald green, it bore carvings of a snake and a scorpion, with a hilt in an elegant spiral shape, somewhat resembling the Western rapiers from Zhou Zhi's past life.

Exquisite, extravagant, beautiful, yet harboring toxicity.

The moment Chen Chaosheng saw that Plague-Slaying Blade, he seemed to recall something.

"Last month, the Capital National Museum of Ultimate Bliss was robbed... it shocked all of Ultimate Bliss."

"One of the exhibits went missing, and it hasn't been found to this day."

"That was..."

Xia Yu narrowed her eyes: "The famous blade, Snake and Scorpion."

BOOM!!!

A thunderous sound descended from above.

Simultaneously.

A viscous crimson substance covered Xia Yu's face, gradually sharpening to form a bizarre, half-faced protective mask.

The center of the mask featured mouthparts, while the right side was adorned with a relief of a unique dark red rose.

Her body was drenched in a crimson long coat, flowing down like tassels.

An illusory voice seemed to truly ring out.

[I have fallen for the sake of beauty, willing to endure the weight of ten thousand blades].

"Seven Xuanyuan Stars, Mr. Chen Chaosheng."

"This young woman offers her greetings."

Chen Chaosheng's expression changed completely.

"Chief... Chief Surgeon Grade..."

"Why..."

He turned and ran, no longer caring in the slightest about his so-called convenient sister.

Run!

RUN!!!

Then, agony spread throughout his entire body.

In Xia Yu's hand, she held a complete human skin.

Zhou Zhi's body grew increasingly cold.

That skin...

It was Chen Chaosheng's.

In that split second, the skin of that Seven Xuanyuan Star had been completely flayed away.

Such cruel and brutal methods, and...

The blood-drenched figure running in the distance.

And Chen Yao, who was utterly terrified.
