"Hmm..."
Having exhausted all strength, A Man could only let out a whooshing sound from his throat, barely clinging to life, a fate worse than death.
He realized that the word "kindness" he had used to describe Jiang Nuo was utter nonsense.
This person... is even more ruthless and cruel than Si Yan!
A Man cannot see, but he can clearly feel the loss of life force and can also sense the continuous loss of the Soul Power given to him by the "god" within his body.
Suddenly, he screamed in agony again.
Jiang Nuo stepped on one of the nails, her voice laced with laughter, "Let me ask you something. Answer correctly, and you'll successfully die."
"Ah! Ah!"
"Aaaaaah!"
A Man could only scream instinctively, his screams were extremely shrill, his heart and soul were shattered, his eyeballs had burst, and his brains were churning.
Bound hands gripped the ground tightly, the force of their fingers rubbing away the skin and flesh.
"I'll say it... I'll say it... kill me... please..."
At this moment, A Man began to resent the god.
If... if he were just an ordinary person, he would have died from this pain long ago, but he is not, and he is not a ghost who is not afraid of pain.
When A Man killed his tribesmen as sacrifices, he never thought they would feel pain. Now that it's happening to him, he only wishes he could skin him alive and die.
He heard Jiang Nuo's voice clearly.
"The god you speak of, does he still have a vessel in the human world? That person is Ma Ye."
He knew... how did he know?
A Man was no longer thinking about these things; he just kept nodding, his voice weak.
"Yes... Ma Ye... the messenger of the gods."
"He's lying to you. There are no gods at all. Ma Ye is the mastermind behind it all."
Jiang Nuo smiled and explained, her voice clear and pleasant, "You and the tour guide have both been 'baptized' by Ma Ye, cooperating with him to capture tribespeople and tourists for sacrifice, right?"
"Yes... I deserve to die... Kill me! Kill me!"

"Very good, thank you for your explanation."
Jiang Nuo had already wiped her fingers clean and really didn't want to touch the dirty iron nail.
While silently wondering if she had also caught Si Yan's germaphobia, she pulled out a small knife and deftly plunged it into A Man's skull.
Before A Man lost consciousness, she heard Jiang Nuo say something that sounded even more regretful.
"Your grandmother will live."
A Man twitched her lips, as if trying to say something, but then lost consciousness and stopped breathing.
"As expected of... God Nuo... I'm completely stunned, he can actually remain so calm..."
[Can anyone understand this?! Jiang Nuo is blatantly showing favoritism! Si Jiaojiao, you're so lucky!]
[ Ink Wash is speechless. Si Yan, you are truly blessed...]
Am I the only one who thinks Jiang Nuo is too cruel...? A Man just wanted to live, and besides, she never hurt Jiang Nuo! Why would she want to kill him?
[LOL, she's even trying to kill her boyfriend! Who can stand that?! Upstairs, if you really can't stand it, become a monk, don't waste your compassion!]
[Sister Glutinous Rice's words are still so sharp, but they warm my heart~]
Si Yan keenly sensed that there was a group of ghosts and monsters beside the bamboo house, constantly guarding the area, but they showed no intention of attacking.
He remained wary, then took Jiang Nuo's hand. " Nuonuo, they went to the dense forest; the flowers are blooming there."
"Let's go take a look!"
Without saying a word, Jiang Nuo led his men into the dense forest.
--
Wildflowers are in full bloom in the dense forest.
Unlike when they last came in, the bare tree stumps had all disappeared, as if everything had become nourishment for these blooming flowers.
The colorful flowers bloomed, each larger than a human head, and as the resentment grew stronger, they continued to grow upwards, drawing nourishment from the black trees.
Qian Sen and the others also smelled an extremely strong stench of blood, as if they had been directly immersed in a vat of blood. Even without breathing, the smell rushed straight to their heads.
The fragrance of flowers mingled with the stench of blood; the red petals were more vibrant than blood itself; as it grew, its branches and leaves dripped blood, creating an incredibly dizzying sight.
Chu Xiu hated the smell and vomited as she ran. Looking to the side, she saw that Zhou Ling was adapting well, and her gothic rose dress surprisingly suited the place perfectly.
Captivated by her beauty, she couldn't help but shake her head and sigh, her twin ponytails swinging back and forth.
Zhou Ling, whose face had been inexplicably slapped, tensed her expression and pulled out a piece of black gauze, throwing it to Chu Xiu. "Cover your nose, keep your hair in line, and don't slap me."
"... oh."
Just as the four finally arrived deep in the dense forest, the blood-red flowers, which had adapted to growing there, were already half a person tall, and there was always the possibility of zombies and vengeful ghosts emerging from the flowers, making the situation extremely dangerous.
Zhou Ling turned the pointer to the demon slot and summoned a phantom behind him with unprecedented clarity.
She coldly raised her eyes, her white pupils flashing with chilling killing intent. Her princess-cut hair was disheveled by the strong wind, and her red lips parted slightly as she incantated a spell to activate magic.
Qian Sen used the Heavenly Gang True Yang Sword, which was most effective against vengeful ghosts, and subtly protected Lin Yu.
but...
"They can't kill them all!"
Qian Sen shouted, "We must force out the person behind this as soon as possible! Otherwise, if he's manipulating vengeful ghosts and zombies in the shadows, even if we're incredibly powerful, we'll be exhausted!"
Zhou Ling heard it, but was entangled by the zombies and could only keep attacking, unable to break free.
Lin Yu stood behind Qian Sen, his expression a mixture of worry and fear, but he secretly surveyed his surroundings, finally fixing his gaze on a black tree that was completely unbound by petals and leaves.
"Brother Qian Sen, could it be that tree?"
He reminded Qian Sen, "Only that tree is truly special."
Qian Sen glanced over and said, "It should be! Let's go over there first!"
But the closer they got to the tree, the more zombies blocked their way, almost forming a wall, making it impossible for them to kill them.
--
Wow, so many flowers!
When Jiang Nuo and his companion arrived at the entrance of the dense forest, they were startled by the exceptionally lush and abundant number of blood-red flowers.
He remembered the rule that they couldn't smell flowers, and the old woman had warned him about it, so he immediately shut down his and Si Yan's sense of smell.
Si Yan looked much better; without the scent of flowers, the dizziness lessened considerably.
But as soon as you get close, you feel a bone-chilling cold; the resentment here is unusually strong, more so than in many cemeteries.
He frowned warily and said softly, "We can't go in; there are too many resentful spirits."
"Eh..."
Jiang Nuo responded, then suddenly shook Si Yan's arm, signaling him to look up.
Si Yan: "... Climbing a tree?"
Jiang Nuo nodded.
Si Yan sighed with worry, regretting that he didn't know how to use light-body kung fu.
Let's get started! Time waits for no one!
Jiang Nuo climbed up the tree, where the vines served as natural ropes for them to swing back and forth.
Si Yan inexplicably possessed a wild, untamed quality.
[Monkey... monkey?]
[Wow! Two handsome guys!]
[Hahaha, Si Yan's expression went from reluctant to completely satisfied!! You had a good time, didn't you!]
"Hurry, God Nuo! They're going to die of exhaustion inside! There are so many zombies!"
The viewers in the live chat could only watch helplessly.
