Chapter 144: If You Can

Su Mo looked at the person before her, shocked beyond belief!

Jin Tong also stared at the person before him with a face full of astonishment, "What trick did you pull this time!"

He originally just didn't want her to die so quickly, after all the poison in his body still needed her to cure!

But the strange sensation that inexplicably surged within his body clearly told him that he had again been schemed by this woman!

Jin Tong reached out and clamped Su Mo's throat, but the next second he found his own breathing difficult!

Su Mo sneered, "If you strangle me to death, you won't live either. Now we share life and death; if I die, you will surely die!"

She originally hadn't intended to get involved with this disaster, but who knew he would rush to get close on his own!

Su Mo was surprised in her heart, and at that moment could only accept it.

Jin Tong's eyes darkened, and for an instant he truly wanted to forcefully crush her.

But the inexplicable pain in his neck left him both stunned and shocked!

A sudden, ill‑timed number flashed through Su Mo's mind: Lu Ren Yi, Affection Level -50.

She almost laughed in anger.

With this up‑and‑down Affection Level, it turned out to be Jin Tong?!

This is simply a series of endless scores, one after another!

Jin Tong, dazed by the inexplicable pain in his neck, had Fei Yan spring to Su Mo's side, delivering a palm that repelled the person before him and smoothly escorted Su Mo away.

Su Mo's peripheral vision swept toward Jiang Wu and the increasingly ferocious attackers, and she frowned.

【Act quickly and settle it!】

She narrowed her eyes at Jin Tong and said coldly, "Now, as long as I die, you will die! Be sensible and push Jiang Wu back quickly!"

"Dream on!"

Although the inexplicable pain indeed radiated from his neck, Jin Tong didn't believe Su Mo's words; how could such a vicious thing exist in the world?!

She must be deceiving her; this woman's scheming is truly unfathomable!

Jin Tong raised the long sword in his hand, pointing straight at Su Mo.

Fei Yan flicked his sleeve, a sharp aura rippling around him. He easily shielded the person behind him, and the two faced off.

Now the surroundings were chaotic, and Fei Yan, while evading Jin Tong's attacks, also protected Su Mo, inevitably becoming a bit distracted.

Beside them, Jiang Wu timed it and swung his long whip at Su Mo again.

Su Mo dodged, but couldn't fully evade; a burning pain seared her waist.

Yue Ying's gaze darkened as he flashed from behind; one hand cradled Wife Master in his arms, the other seized Jiang Wu's retracting long whip, which then shattered like a dry branch, instantly turning to powder that fell in a flurry!

In an instant, Jin Tong also felt a burning pain in his waist; he reached out to probe and found blood!

Damn it!

In the flicker of his shifting form, Fei Yan seized the opportunity in front of him!

Fei Yan's palm struck the person before him back, and Jin Tong, retreating, collided with Jiang Wu.

Jiang Wu wore a disdainful expression and said, "Since when have you become so useless? Quickly kill Su Mo!"

Jin Tong frowned, the inexplicable burning sensation in his waist making him doubt that Su Mo's words were true!

When he looked at Su Mo again, he saw her already regaining composure, her faint gaze directed at him.

Su Mo lightly parting her red lips, said to Jiang Wu, "How could he bear to kill me? He staged this play with me just to lure you here to take your life!"

In the original work, Jiang Wu is naturally suspicious, quickly believing "better to trust that it exists than that it doesn't"; she has many Beast Husbands, countless soldiers, yet has never truly trusted anyone.

Jiang Wu's gaze toward Jin Tong changed instantly.

A Ci, standing beside him, immediately thrust a sword at Jin Tong: "Scoundrel!"

Jin Tong twisted his body to dodge A Ci's surprise attack, but couldn't evade Jiang Wu's palm!

That palm used about seventy to eighty percent of her strength, and Jin Tong staggered backward.

Jiang Wu casually lifted his long sword and pointed at him, "If I can't kill them, I'll kill you first, it's the same!"

Jin Tong turned and grabbed the Attendant's sword nearby to face her.

Lin Shan instantly flew in from elsewhere, lending him a helping hand.

The three fought fiercely, each move Jiang Wu made bristling with decisive killing intent!

Lin Shan and Jin Tong were no less.

Xiao Jiu, excited while munching on melon, shouted, "Right, fight like this! Today these two people, one of them has to die first!"

Su Mo originally wanted to enjoy this good show, but an inexplicable pain in her chest made her frown.

She asked Xiao Jiu, "What's happening? Jin Tong is injured, why do I also feel it? If he dies, will I die too?"

Xiao Jiu frowned and said, "Logically, as the restrained party you shouldn't. It might be because you also took the Primary-Secondary Pill, so you feel a slight sensation?"

Su Mo asked again, "How do we Unbind later? I don't want to stay tied with this dead pervert Jin Tong!"

Xiao Jiu frowned, "The manual doesn't have that~ Unbinding this thing will immediately become ineffective, cannot be used a second time; if Jin Tong doesn't die, he'll definitely come back for you, so now it's really not suitable to Unbind~"

Su Mo frowned, "That's true, then if Jin Tong dies before Unbinding, does it affect me at all?"

Xiao Jiu stammered, "The manual says the restrained party is controlled by the restrainer. However, if the two bound have vastly different strength, there might be some effect… the restrainer probably won't die, but caution is still needed."

Su Mo stared in astonishment, "No, why didn't you mention this huge bug earlier!"

"We were originally aiming for symbiotic life and death with the heroine~ Who knew he'd come on his own… At that moment we could only use him to kill the heroine first, then figure out how to deal with him."

Su Mo was speechless.

Xiao Jiu: "Think positively, as they say, our enemy is temporarily one fewer…"

Su Mo: "If you can't comfort anyone, shut up!"

Not far away, Mo Xiao, Ye Yuan, and Cang Lan all stared in shock.

What Unbinding?

But at that moment there was no time for them to think it over.

Su Mo glanced at Jiang Wu, who was locked in combat with Jin Tong not far away; the heroine's technique was truly ruthless and absolute, leaving not a single margin.

【If this keeps going, it won't work; now that we're here, we have to make this heroine suffer a bit!】

Su Mo quietly took a poison‑coated dagger from System Space, along with some powdered medicine, and tossed them to Fei Yan.

Whatever this so‑called Girl of Fortune is, if we can't kill her, making her shed a layer of skin should at least work, right?

Fei Yan took it, swiftly flashed into the fray and joined the battle against Jiang Wu!

His sudden intrusion, in Jiang Wu's eyes, seemed more like he was there to help Jin Tong.

A flash of fierce killing intent briefly flickered in her eyes; her moves were even more ruthless than before!

Fei Yan parried a few strikes, and while he and Jin Tong were entangled, he raised his hand and scattered the powder.

Then he hurled the dagger from his sleeve forcefully toward Jiang Wu's direction!

Jiang Wu's eyes widened instantly; at the hair‑trigger moment, A Ci, who was at her side, spun around and lunged!

"City Lord!"

A painful scream rang in his ears: "Wife Master, retreat quickly!"

Jiang Wu's fierce gaze swept over everyone, finally landing on Su Mo.

Then she was seen, under the cover of the others, grabbing the wounded A Ci and leaping away!

Everyone aligned with Jin Tong fell victim to Su Mo's poison, including him and Lin Shan.

Su Chen, with a composed expression, suddenly brandished a sword, and taking advantage of the moment, drove it hard into Jin Tong's chest!
