“What’s the matter, Guide IV, everyone is waiting for you up there.”

Wei Xun smiled gently, and despite IV-1’s resistance, he approached IV-1 step by step.

“You also heard the Tibetans say that you are unclean, right? We have to find a way to pass through them.”

“Fuck off, are you trying to seek death?!”

This scene was very similar to how IV-1 had previously forced tourists to succumb to him and admit to being a dog, but IV-1had never imagined how angry and unwilling the forced party would be until their identities were reversed.

“If you dare to take one more step forward, and I’ll let you——”

Wei Xun suddenly shot forward and grabbed IV-1’s shoulder. Before IV-1 could react, he was pulled forward by a force he was unable to resist. He was “peeled off” from the mountain wall behind him. IV-1 was furious and wanted to desperately fight back, but the golden mosquito’s control of him made him dazed for a moment. It was at this moment that Wei Xun moved extremely fast and he put his right hand into IV-1’s cloak, exploring IV-1’s back.

Then, IV-1 saw an illusory fox head appearing on Wei Xun’s hand. The fox opened its mouth and bit the tame head, but this scene was completely blocked by IV-1’s cloak.

Both of them only heard a shrill scream, and the tame head behind IV-1 was shockingly plucked out by the young fox using its mouth.

“AH——!!”

IV-1’s felt deeply pained, and he let out a heart-wrenching shriek. The instant he felt the pain, he almost fainted. Cold sweat dripped down from him like rain, and in a trance, IV-1 seemed to see a resentful face covered in blood and tears. It was the woman he had made into a tame head.

This woman had dared to defy him again and again. In the end, IV-1 had simply found a Thai tame head on the tour guide forum, had the tame head peel off the woman’s skin while she was still alive, cut off her neck while she was still breathing, and taken out her head and spine.

The woman’s skin had been sewn on IV-1’s back, and the head and spine had been made into a hitoban by a Thai tame head. At that time, he had thought that he should utilize everything on the woman, and he had never thought about how painful it would be to be skinned alive.

“I’m here, Guide IV.”

IV-1, who was in a cold sweat, was still laughing when he heard Wei Xun.

“What are you going to do with me?”

At this time, he didn’t think that the beauty was beautiful when he laughed. He only felt that Wei Xun was as terrifying as a devil! It could be said that IV-1 had thought about killing Wei Xun just now. But now, as IV-1 watched his countdown to death rapidly fall and he thought about the method Wei Xun had used to pull the tame head out of his body, he did not dare to act rashly.

Even if his points kept rising now, the rising points brought by countless viewers pouring into the livestream room would be first prioritized by the Travel Services to repay the loan. The points left would be a drop in the ocean for IV-1. They were not enough for him to increase the countdown to death.

No, he couldn’t die, he had finally become a tour guide. The lives of the tourists were all cheap. Therefore, why would he risk his life to go all out against Wei Xun?

Yes, as long as you lived, as long as you could survive, you had a chance to take revenge in the future——It was too stupid to fight with a tourist now. After all, he couldn’t risk his precious life!

“Wei Xun, Wei Xun, spare me.”

Stripped of the tame head, IV-1’s face twitched as it dripped blood. His face looked extremely terrifying. IV-1 didn’t fight back against Wei Xun. He completely let go of his arrogance and begged Wei Xun for mercy.

“I have no grievances or enmity with you. I treated you well too. As soon as you entered the tour group, I appreciated you and let you be the leader.”

IV-1 was incoherent. He threw the Tour Guide Flag, Tour Guide Mic, and Tour Guide Brooch on the ground to show his sincerity, and said in a low voice, “Yue Chenghua and the others are dead because they’d wanted to complete a special task. But it was beyond their own power, and it has nothing to do with me. This is a tour that tests tourists. I am a tour guide. You can’t blame me, can’t, can’t…”

Wei Xun didn’t even look at him. He also didn’t glance at the other things IV-1 threw out. Wei Xun stroked the ferret in his palm. It seemed to have grown a bit, burping lazily in Wei Xun’s palm. When it had still had its physical body previously, it could have been considered to be a celestial fox that would soon attain some achievements in its cultivation. It didn’t swallow any human souls, and it only ate some pure resentment and Yin energy.

After the young fox turned into this form, it couldn’t afford to be picky with its food. The ferret burped and spat out the remnants of the woman’s soul. This soul was extremely incomplete, probably because only her skin was left. This woman couldn’t reincarnate, or transcend into the heavens. The soul couldn’t be collected, and it could only dissipate.

This wisp of remnant soul was so illusory that one could barely see a shadow of her. She bowed to Wei Xun and the ferret, and then rushed into IV-1’s body. Every injustice had a perpetrator. IV-1, whose severe pain had not yet dissipated, felt like his blood had suddenly frozen. His teeth chattered, his eyes darkened, and he almost passed out.

Did Wei Xun do something to him again? He, he has already thrown away all the tour guide items, damn Wei Xun, how can he be so smart!

IV-1 was so angry that he gritted his teeth. Although IV-1 had pretended to surrender, he was always looking for an opportunity. The tour guide items he had thrown out just now were bait——He’d thought that as a newcomer, when Wei Xun saw these tour guide items, he would probably think he had won and would relax his vigilance. In fact, both the Tour Guide Flag and Tour Guide Mic could only be used by IV-1, and the only thing Wei Xun could touch was the Tour Guide Brooch.

But who knew that Wei Xun would not fall for his trap!

IV-1 shuddered, and the rapidly descending countdown to death made him feel that things were going south. Especially since the coldness inside him seemed to be able to freeze his soul, making his mind turn sluggish. No, he couldn’t delay any longer. He didn’t have extra points to increase the countdown to death, and he even owed the Travel Services points. He couldn’t really die here!

“This is a blood tonic, this is a snake primer, and this is the inner gallbladder that can detoxify most snake venoms. They are all for you.”

IV-1 took out a large pile of miscellaneous things. Gnashing his teeth, he finally took out a golden box, held it in his hand, and wanted to open it in front of Wei Xun.

“This is the treasure I got from the Dragon God, something I got from Tangra Yumco. It is very powerful. Look, this is absolutely good stuff. I will give it to you——AH!!!”

The back of his hand was in severe pain. IV-1 waved his hand vigorously, and saw a gray-white shadow flashing past. The ferret had just bitten the back of IV-1’s hand, then returned to Wei Xun’s shoulder. The golden box had disappeared from his hands.

It was a storage prop!

IV-1’s eyes were staring straight at the ferret, but there was still something he didn’t understand. Why had Wei Xun left the tour group, and why had the Tour Guide Brooch ended up in Jiang Hongguang’s hands? This damn Wei Xun must have taken advantage of that time to complete a branch scenic spot!

No wonder he was so strong, no wonder, no wonder Wei Xun wanted to act against him suddenly. He must have heard from the group of veteran tourists that the tour guide would not let tourists who completed branch scenic spots live, so it was necessary to act against IV-1 first!

Thinking of this, IV-1 even felt aggrieved. Why? He obviously hadn’t known that Wei Xun had completed a branch scenic spot. Why didn’t Wei Xun properly hide this from him? And why did he make a move against him first?

Why did he brutally act against him? Who exactly was the tour guide?!

It was useless to talk about other things at the moment. With the completion of the branch scenic spot, Wei Xun might never believe his words.

“You can’t kill me, Wei Xun.”

IV-1 changed his tone and said, “We are all being broadcasted live now, and we are being watched by people outside, at least tens of thousands of people are watching! If you kill me, they will all be able to see it!”

After threatening Wei Xun, IV-1 softened his tone again. “Brother, although you are a tourist and I am a tour guide, we are all forcibly selected into the Travel Services. We are all human. Wei Xun, you can’t kill humans!”

Wei Xun let IV-1’s panic grow in his heart——The more negative emotions he accumulated, the more he would be controlled by Wei Xun. An abyssal species like Xiaojin liked panic and despair. Just like now, Xiaojin was quietly lying on the back of IV-1’s neck to suck blood. From this blood packed with fear, all of IV-1’s information was completely revealed and continuously passed on to Wei Xun.

Many of his secrets, things that IV-1 didn’t even know, were all learned by Wei Xun.

In fact, Wei Xun hadn’t intended to kill IV-1 at first, and he’d just wanted to control him completely. After all, he was going to visit the Ruins of Xiangxiong Kingdom for the next few days, and he didn’t want anyone to disturb him.

But who would have known that IV-1 had come up with some plans before Xiaojin had sucked his negative emotions. He poured out so many of his plans, and Wei Xun even learned what he had gotten from the belly of the aquatic reptile. Wei Xun wouldn’t let him open the golden box. Just look at how IV-1 had schemed his way to let Yue Chenghua’s four person group get annihilated. Wei Xun also learned that IV-1 knew at a glance that this thing was extremely dangerous.

IV-1 felt the same sense of crisis Wei Xun had felt when he had met the spiteful ghost Pingping for the first time. Therefore, Wei Xun hadn’t even expected that IV-1, who was the first among all the tour guides of the IV-rank, would dare to challenge the aquatic reptile.

“Are you human?”

Wei Xun paced to the side of IV-1, who was so cold that his body had stiffened. Wei Xun leaned down and whispered in IV-1’s ear, chuckling as he said in a voice that only the two of them could hear, “I don’t want to be a human now. Can I kill you?”

IV-1’s pupils shrank suddenly, his face had an expression of despair, and his whole body trembled. Wei Xun took the opportunity to completely invade IV-1’s mind. Before the despair in his heart could turn into a sense of ruthlessness to aid him in going all out with Wei Xun, Wei Xun’s voice became even lower. It was like a whisper as he said, “Maybe, you’ll be my dog.”

There was a deep meaning in his words. His sentence contained two meanings, and only he and IV-1 could understand them at this moment. Wei Xun only saw that the fierceness that was about to appear in IV-1’s eyes dissipated. IV-1 was shocked, and it was as if he was struck by lightning. He couldn’t believe it. The next moment, he simply closed his eyes and did not let any of his emotions show, but Wei Xun heard from his messy thoughts that he was extremely anxious, and in extreme panic, he thought, ‘You, how do you know?!’

“Wei Xun doesn’t really want to kill IV-1, does he?!”

At this moment, the popularity of IV-1’s livestream room was at an unprecedented high, and the commentary barrage had exploded, filled with comments. If IV-1 could really come out alive from the tour, one was afraid that not only could he achieve the achievement of thousands of people watching the livestream that he once dreamed of, but even reach the achievement of 10,000 viewers in the livestream room!

This popularity couldn’t be achieved by ordinary III-ranked tour guides, and it was even comparable to II-ranked tour guides! However, not every tour guide wanted such a shameful event/incident to cause this achievement. After all, the audience had not come because of IV-1, but because they wanted to witness with their own eyes the historical act of a newcomer tourist killing a tour guide!

Moreover, it was in a Difficult-level tour, and the tourist was a pure newcomer, while the tour guide was ranked first among the IV-ranked tour guides!

As soon as the post of [Livestream of newcomer tourist Wei Xun killing Tour Guide IV-1] appeared, it surged upwards among hundreds of posts in the forum, and even many foreign tour guides and tourists from the West who had heard the rumors came to watch it.

In fact, this shouldn’t have attracted so much attention. The bigwig tour guides and tourists were very busy. For other audiences, there were many livestreams of I-ranked and II-ranked tour guides to watch. Even if there was a gimmick like “Newcomer Stepping on a Tour Guide”, in the end, it was just a Difficult-level exploration tour.

But when Wei Xun got the nine-eyed Xiangxiong dzi from Amala, and learned that the devil sealed in the human skin thangka was about to awaken and was in urgent need of suppression by eminent monks and people with great virtues, the newcomer scouts from each tour group immediately sent an urgent message to the tour parties above them. An emergency report was sent——This is likely to be a prequel to a higher-level tour!

If it was associated with Buddhas, demons, etc., it would be at least Dangerous-level, or even a tour of the Extremely Dangerous-level! One must know that although everyone had estimated that there would be a tour of the 30th Parallel North in Tibet, so many bigwig tour guides and tour parties in the Western and Eastern regions had not been able to find any clues. The devil of Xiangxiong Kingdom had been silent for thousands of years. Yet, the great devil that had been sealed in the legend had woken up at this moment.

This was an obvious signal for the tourists and tour guides who were good at capturing clues and had keen intuition!
