Chapter 85

"Me?"

Ye Yun was greatly startled, pointing at himself: "You still want to kill me now?"

"I understand, it's not about killing, but rather you were captivated by the sight of my flames..." Cang Xing seemed somewhat troubled: "This is really troublesome. ===="

Zhang Yusheng stepped forward and said: "Cang Xing, how did you get the Light Guardian? So many people were competing for it, why did you end up with it?"

"Well, I found it."

Cang Xing tossed the golden light ball in his hand: "Actually, this isn't hard to understand. At first, they were all vying for what was inside, but during the competition, they realized that the competition itself was no longer the issue... Whether it's the terrorists or the counter-terrorists, their ultimate goal is for the other side to be completely wiped out, right? At first, the existence of this thing was a setup, but now that the last layer of mystery has been peeled away, both sides have laid their cards on the table. So, wiping out the other side is all that matters, and whether or not they get what's inside is no longer important, isn't it?"

Zhang Yusheng let out a long breath: "That's right. When all the clever strategies fail, what ultimately decides the outcome is genuine strength."

"But who would have thought that in the end, I would still come out on top?" Cang Xing gently tossed the light ball, holding the microphone close to his thin lips and smiling: "Do you know, I love seeing people's surprised expressions? Especially when something that should have happened doesn't, or something that shouldn't have happened does. The look of shock on people's faces is truly the most captivating."

"What do you really want to say? Let her go!"

Ye Yun's fists pounded his chest, flames splashing: "Do you think with the help of five Nuya, you can stand up to so many people who want to kill you?"

"Want to kill me?"

Cang Xing tilted his handsome face slightly: "Let me tell you who still has some fighting power... Major Roger, he certainly wants to kill me, but more importantly, he hates Mr. Zhang even more. Besides, I have the Light Guardian, which is about to be unlocked. Once I inject its contents into the dead, seven out of ten vials can create a Nuya. With Major Roger and the Earth Dragon leader's strength, it would be extremely difficult for them to kill another Nuya. Thus, they won't be able to complete their hidden mission by 50%, and even if they aren't killed by the Nuya, they will be kicked out of the game by the system."

"Similarly, Mr. Zhang hopes for the opposite. He has already fought to this extent, and while he is on guard against Major Roger and the Earth Dragon suddenly attacking, he probably still has to rely on me. If I can use these vials to create Nuya, he can sit back and wait for Major Roger and the Earth Dragon to die without much effort."

"Then there are Mr. Zhang Yusheng and Miss Vanessa. These two certainly want me dead, but they hate the deceased Mr. Unlucky Wolf the most. To kill Mr. Unlucky Wolf, they have almost exhausted themselves. Since they have enough game points, even if the main quest fails, they won't be eliminated. What reason do they have to fight me? They would just be signing their own death warrants."

"So..." Cang Xing smiled at Ye Yun: "Mr. Ye Yun, if you think about it, it seems that you are the only one who is extremely displeased and wants to fight! Indeed, men should be brave enough to fight for the ones they love, right?"

Ye Yun ignored his teasing and instead looked at Kula.

Similarly, Kula was looking at him.

Her eyes were filled with tears, like the Jiangnan in the spring rain, sticky and hazy, with a faint beauty and a touch of melancholy.

Indeed, she wasn't as close to the other four girls in the group as the fans imagined, but after growing together for many years, even if they were cold strangers, seeing them die tragically in front of her would inevitably make her feel sad.

Cang Xing's words made her look at Ye Yun with hope.

She had a good impression of him, and although a fifteen or sixteen-year-old girl couldn't really talk about love, it didn't hide the admiration in her heart.

Ye Yun naturally had a good impression of her too. Although this good impression hadn't yet turned into love, and Ye Yun, as a 'game player' who could die at any moment, didn't feel he was worthy of this young girl, he still couldn't bear to see her die in front of him.

"Even for my own benefit, to avoid being eliminated..." Ye Yun told himself.

In fact, this was just self-deception. It's hard to define the feelings between men and women, but people's preferences are always the same. Could you spend a few days with beauties like Lin Zhi-ling, Deng Zi-chi, Liu Shi-shi, and Kim Tae-yeon without developing a good impression of them? That would be almost impossible.

Of course, whether for his own benefit or the budding feelings in his heart, Ye Yun couldn't just stand by and let Cang Xing harm Kula.

So he stepped forward.

The flames on his fists pointed at Cang Xing.

His eyes flashed with unwavering courage and determination!

"Do you want to fight me? Then come on!"

"You, or the Nuya, make your move!"

"Um, I have to interrupt your heroic and high-sounding words..." Cang Xing smiled: "I remember that when the good guys say such things and take such poses, the bad guys usually don't end well."

Ye Yun's brows furrowed: "You won't fight me?"

"At least until we grow stronger, I really don't plan to fight a man with potential like you." Cang Xing waved his hand: "Besides, aren't Major Roger and Mr. Zhang more anxious? I need to finish this act first."

"What are you planning?"

"Planning?" Cang Xing smiled: "You'll see."

As he spoke, the golden light ball of the Light Guardian suddenly 'cracked'!

"How is that possible..." Zhang Yusheng's eyes widened: "I set it for one hour!"

"Right, right," Cang Xing smiled: "But you forgot that your sister, known as the Doraemon of the CT world, has a [Local Time Regulator]?"

Zhang Yusheng's pupils dilated, and he took a step forward, shouting in anguish: "What did you do to her!?"

"The item is in my hands..." Cang Xing laughed, his mouth curling into a grin like a circus clown: "Her fate, hehehehe."

"Spit!" Zhang Yusheng, already heavily injured from fighting Unlucky Wolf, couldn't help but be enraged by Cang Xing's words. He immediately spat out a mouthful of blood and fell backward.

Vanessa hurriedly stepped forward to support him, but Zhang Yusheng suddenly broke free, his eyes bloodshot, and ran toward Cang Xing.

However, his injuries were too severe, and he fell to the ground after a few steps, shouting with difficulty: "Cang Xing... I will... definitely... kill you!!!"

"Oh my!" Cang Xing spread his hands and spoke into the microphone: "What are you doing... I already said I wouldn't kill Miss Zhang Yulian for now, why are you so agitated?"

Zhang Yusheng: "..."

Another mouthful of blood spurted out, and Zhang Yusheng struggled to get up, holding onto a nearby corpse: "My sister... what did you do to her?"

"She's not my match, but I didn't want to kill her, so I made a contract with her, trading her life for the [Local Time Regulator]. She should be hiding somewhere safe and unharmed."

"You..." Zhang Yusheng, a mix of surprise and anger, finally fainted.

"Hehe, that's why I say, such expressions are the most moving." Cang Xing smiled contentedly, his thin lips curling, and he gave everyone a guiding gesture: "But this also serves as a warning to all of you, always keep a calm mindset, no matter what."

Roger, holding his chest wound, stepped forward and interrupted him: "Enough talk, what are your conditions? Speak quickly!"

"Conditions? Oh, oh!" Cang Xing laughed: "That depends on you."

As he spoke, two poker card-sized golden lights floated in his palm, shooting toward Roger and Zhang Yueshan. The golden light cards were specific game system contracts, and once signed, violators would be eliminated.

"This..."

"I agree! As long as you use the rest to create Nuya, I'll give you 500,000 game points!" Zhang Yueshan, now alone, almost immediately agreed after a quick glance at the golden light.

"Wait, I can still..." Roger was in a hurry and shouted loudly.

"Hey, hey!" Cang Xing waved his white, tender index finger at Roger: "First come, first served, you've missed your chance~!"
