Chapter 12: The Consequence of Repaying Kindness with Enmity!

Indeed, the mysterious visitor used this crossbow to kill the insect. Seeing the strange runes on it, one could tell that there was something wrong with the crossbow. This person must have relied on the mysterious power of this weapon to become so powerful!

Diao Dingguo couldn't help but think: If, if this weapon belonged to me, with such a powerful weapon, not only would I easily get the beautiful girl Feifei, but even more celebrity beauties would be within my grasp!

As the saying goes, evil arises from boldness. Diao Dingguo's desire dominated his courage, and his courage further fueled his desire. Just as Chu Yunsheng was about to leave, he suddenly drew the watermelon knife hidden at his waist and stabbed directly at Chu Yunsheng!

Diao Dingguo's sudden attack was too unexpected. No one had anticipated it. The young boy only saw the tip of the knife flash past his eyes, and it was too late to shout or stop it.

Even Chu Yunsheng hadn't expected that there could be such an ungrateful person. He had just saved their lives, and now someone would repay him with enmity! So even though he had mocked Diao Dingguo a few times, he never thought that the other person would actually stab him with a knife!

In Diao Dingguo's eyes, this seemingly formidable mysterious person was doomed. At such close range, even a watermelon knife would cause serious injury or death. Then he could seize the crossbow and achieve his goal!

At that moment, he seemed to see himself holding this powerful weapon, shooting down the red-armored insect with great might.

However, the situation once again took an unexpected turn. The mysterious person still stood there, showing no signs of injury. Diao Dingguo's watermelon knife fell to the ground, and a bloody gash appeared on his hand, with blood dripping onto the floor. He writhed on the ground, groaning in pain.

Chu Yunsheng said in shock and anger, "You want to kill me!?"

If it weren't for the strong defense of the Six Jia Yuanfu, he might have really let this bastard succeed! Chu Yunsheng was truly angry. He had saved his life, and not only did Diao Dingguo not show gratitude, but he even tried to kill him! Could this still be considered a human being?

"Why?" In his anger, Chu Yunsheng also felt a bit puzzled.

At the moment the watermelon knife was mysteriously deflected, Diao Dingguo realized he had made another huge mistake. This person was far beyond his comprehension.

"I... I..." Diao Dingguo was flustered.

Chu Yunsheng smiled coldly and said, "Are you confused again? Don't you know what you're doing?!"

Diao Dingguo subconsciously glanced at Chu Yunsheng's crossbow, but quickly looked away. His gradually calming mind was rapidly thinking of a way to deal with the situation.

Chu Yunsheng, already at the level of One Yuan Tian and enhanced by the Six Jia Yuanfu, could easily detect Diao Dingguo's furtive glance.

It didn't take much thought to understand Diao Dingguo's intentions—he was after the crossbow!

Chu Yunsheng was both angry and speechless. Even if Diao Dingguo got the crossbow, he wouldn't be able to use it without any yuan energy. Moreover, even if he had yuan energy, the crossbow's seal was bound to Chu Yunsheng's aura, making it unusable by others.

Diao Dingguo's smooth talk, repaying kindness with enmity, and his venomous heart filled Chu Yunsheng with intense hatred!

For such a person, there was nothing to say. The first thought was to chop him up and feed him to the insects.

However, when he drew his long sword and pointed it at Diao Dingguo's neck, he hesitated and couldn't bring himself to strike. The reason was simple: he had never killed anyone before, and this hesitation lingered.

Although he had seen many terrifying deaths and killed many insects, actually killing a living person was a completely different scenario. It wasn't a matter of being soft-hearted; Chu Yunsheng had no sympathy for such a person.

Diao Dingguo was almost driven to the brink of collapse by Chu Yunsheng's drawn sword. He never imagined that his momentary greed would bring such a catastrophic end!

However, he seemed to selectively forget that he had tried to ambush Chu Yunsheng first!

Chu Yunsheng's hesitation gave Diao Dingguo a chance. He turned and ran, rushing into the room. Although there was no way out, this might be called panic-driven action.

Chu Yunsheng hesitated for a moment but had no intention of letting this scoundrel go. Diao Dingguo ran fast, but Chu Yunsheng's crossbow was faster. At such close range, he didn't need to waste yuan energy. He shot an arrow directly into Diao Dingguo's thigh, causing him to tumble and crash into a corpse on the ground. The pain and shock made him scream in terror!

The other five people were so frightened by this sudden change that they were as silent as cicadas in winter, and no one dared or was willing to plead for Diao Dingguo.

Chu Yunsheng had already thought of a good way to handle the situation. He locked the only door in the room and used the iron bars scattered on the ground, damaged by the red-armored insect, to secure the door. This way, he wouldn't have to kill Diao Dingguo directly. Diao Dingguo would either bleed to death or starve to death inside! In any case, there was no way out.

This method of death seemed even more cruel than killing him directly, but Chu Yunsheng thought it fitting for such an ungrateful person.

As he passed the girl Feifei, Chu Yunsheng couldn't resist taunting her, "Do you still believe in such an ungrateful bastard?"

The girl was so nervous that she didn't dare to look at him. His words made her jump like a frightened rabbit, and she hid to one side.

Am I that terrifying? Chu Yunsheng thought to himself, feeling a bit depressed.

"Can you take us with you?" the young boy pleaded.

Chu Yunsheng looked at the five of them and shook his head, saying, "I have other things to do. You should leave quickly. The smell of blood is heavy here, and other insects will come soon."

"But where can we go?" a middle-aged woman said in despair.

"Go west after you leave. There are lights and gunshots there. The army is there, and you can go there!" Chu Yunsheng said quickly, recalling what he had seen on his way there.

The young boy immediately said, "No, there's a bridge to the west, and insects are guarding it. We've tried several times and couldn't get through, and we lost several people!"

Hearing about the insects, Chu Yunsheng became interested and said with a hint of excitement, "Insects? How many?"

Everyone drew a deep breath at his tone, realizing he was indeed a madman. This was the first time anyone had shown such excitement about insects in this world.

The boy, even more convinced of Chu Yunsheng's mysterious abilities, recalled, "There are about two, one at the east end of the bridge and one at the west. We've tried several times, and it's always the same!"

Two insects, although somewhat separated, were practically together for insects. This presented a challenge. Chu Yunsheng suddenly thought of another issue and asked, puzzled, "Why do you have to cross that bridge? Why not go around from the north or south?"

The boy smiled bitterly and said, "Brother, we want to, especially to the south, where there's a Hualian supermarket. We've been there the most, and that's where the most people have died. There's an insect on the street and another in the supermarket, just waiting for us to come and die!"

Chu Yunsheng thought for a moment. Isolated insects were the best choice, but such opportunities were rare. If he only targeted isolated insects, his training speed would greatly decrease, which didn't align with his current urgent needs.

So, he decided to take on the challenge of the two insects, and his spirit soared!
