How could a human be this strong?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Gecko’s body convulsed; brain damage had scrambled his thoughts.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Su Xiao gripped the hilt and pulled the [Dragon-Slaying Flash] horizontally.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A brutal scene unfolded—the razor-sharp [Dragon-Slaying Flash] cleaved straight through the Gecko’s skull, bursting out from his temple.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Half of the Gecko’s head was severed; he collapsed with a thud, white-and-red fluid oozing from his eye sockets, his appearance grotesque.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Being stabbed through the skull and being split open by a blade are two different things. Though the Gecko’s vitality was strong, if he didn’t consume human flesh soon, he would die quickly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Su Xiao understood ghoul resilience somewhat—he recalled how the “Gourmet” Tsukiyama in the original story had lost half his head to Dong Xiang, yet miraculously survived by eating his own flesh.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The blade swept through; the Gecko’s head fell to the ground, his blood-stained white mask shattering.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Su Xiao knew the Gecko was a pivotal character in the original story, crucial to advancing the plot.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Without the Gecko, Jin Muyan’s growth would have been much slower—but what did that have to do with him?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He was here to complete his mission and grow stronger through the power of the Lunhuileyuan , not to grovel before characters from the original story.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If Jin Muyan ever appeared before Su Xiao after growing stronger, he’d cut him down without hesitation.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The current Jin Muyan wasn’t even worth killing.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>【You killed an S-class ghoul, Da Shou Bayun.】\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>【Da Shou Bayun is a key plot character. You gained 5.2% of the World Source. Total World Source acquired: 5.2%.】\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>【Your talent “Soul Eater” has activated. Permanent +10 Mana. Current Mana: 163.】\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After killing the Gecko, a green treasure chest floated above his body.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Only Contractors could see this green chest; the dozen or so Contractors watching from afar stared greedily at it—if Su Xiao weren’t there, they would’ve already rushed in.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“What? You want this chest? If you do, come and take it.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Su Xiao smiled at the Contractors. Had he not feared Rize might flee, he’d have cleared them all already.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Rize had wanted to run from the start, but the Gecko died too fast—slain in a single glance by Su Xiao, all in four strikes.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>First strike: severed the Hezi . Second: severed the arm. Third: pierced the skull. Fourth: decapitated.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Rize didn’t not want to run—she simply didn’t have time.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Don’t misunderstand—we have no other intentions.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Han Yu was the first to speak, slowly retreating with his group; the other Contractors followed suit.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The little girl Xi Luo Luo hesitated, then followed Han Yu’s retreat. Though she’d once traded with Su Xiao, they had no personal bond.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>From Su Xiao’s ruthless fighting style, it was clear he was no soft-hearted man.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Contractors began to fall back, but didn’t leave immediately; once at a safe distance, they watched the scene.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Now, it’s your turn.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Su Xiao flicked his wrist, shaking off the Gecko’s remains from the [Dragon-Slaying Flash]; the blade gleamed clean.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After several battles, Su Xiao realized the [Dragon-Slaying Flash] was an excellent weapon—though only a White-rank item, its rating was exceptionally high, maxed at 10.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This taught him one thing: fully rated gear was usually good, even if it was White-rank.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>One could imagine what the stats of a fully rated Green or Blue-rank item would be—perhaps off the charts. As for higher-tier gear, Su Xiao had never heard of any.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But he was certain higher-tier gear existed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Su Xiao’s murderous aura made Rize step back two paces; this great ghoul now looked pitifully vulnerable.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If Rize wiped the blood from her face, Su Xiao would look like a pure villain, bullying a “helpless woman.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But Rize wasn’t helpless—she was a man-eating ghoul. No matter how beautiful, she was still a ghoul.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Don’t come closer. We have no grudge—let me go.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Rize resorted to the only option left: negotiation. The Gecko’s headless corpse still lay on the ground; direct combat was hopeless.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Su Xiao picked up the green chest dropped by the Gecko and smiled at Rize.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Let you go? What’s in it for me?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Rize hesitated, her eyes filled with killing intent—but finally, she flashed him a seductive glance.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Contractors watching from afar felt intense injustice.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>To them, Shen Dai Rize was a boss-level presence—but now, before Su Xiao, she was offering herself to survive. How unfair.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Unfair? They only saw Su Xiao’s current strength. Before this, in the Pirate World, he’d struggled desperately.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Assassinating a king in a world crawling with monsters—how difficult that was, one could imagine.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Su Xiao’s true power far exceeded his Lv.2 level—that’s why he could effortlessly crush an S-class ghoul.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Besides, in Su Xiao’s view, the world was never fair. The only fair thing? Everyone dies.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Su Xiao regarded Shen Dai Rize with interest and walked slowly toward her.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Rize hesitated, then stepped forward to meet him—but she didn’t retract her Hezi .\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Rize trusted her beauty. She’d used it to lure countless men—each ended as her meal.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Five meters. Three meters. One meter.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Su Xiao raised his left hand and gently touched Rize’s cheek. Ghoul skin was tough, but her cheek was astonishingly smooth.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The four deep crimson Hezi  behind her began to coil, glowing red, ready to strike.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Die.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The four Hezi  erupted like iron hooks, forming a ring to pierce Su Xiao’s back.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Puch.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The sound of metal piercing flesh rang out—Su Xiao’s long blade had pierced Rize’s chest.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Rize’s crimson eyes widened, filled with cruelty, madness, and fear—fear of death.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“I knew it.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Rize let out a bitter laugh, her gaze helplessly fixed on the blade that had pierced her—[Dragon-Slaying Flash] had torn straight through her heart, its tip stained red.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Men like you… aren’t easily seduced. It hurts so much~.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The agonizing pain of burning RC cells surged through her; Rize bent forward.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Su Xiao gripped the hilt with one hand and pressed his other palm against the blade’s back, shoving hard sideways.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The [Dragon-Slaying Flash] carved cleanly through Rize’s chest, emerging from beneath her armpit.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Splatter.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A torrent of blood splashed onto the floor. Rize’s body went limp, her Hezi  dissolving into the air, collapsing weakly against Su Xiao.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Throughout, Su Xiao’s eyes held no lust. To be seduced by a woman in battle? That was brain-dead insanity.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At that moment, the Lunhuileyuan  gave Su Xiao a prompt.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>【Warning: Hunter attempting to kill key plot character: Shen Dai Rize. Before her death, extract her Hezi  to ensure plot continuity.】\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Su Xiao nodded. This was expected.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Thud. Rize collapsed at Su Xiao’s feet, gasping violently, blood spreading across the white tiles.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Su Xiao knelt down, his blade hovering uncertainly above her.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He didn’t know exactly where her Hezi  was located. According to the original story, it should be near the kidneys.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Su Xiao simply sliced a wound across Rize’s smooth abdomen, then reached his left hand inside her body to feel around.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Mmm~.” Rize moaned in pain, her gaze toward Su Xiao now filled with fear.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In Rize’s eyes, the man before her might be a pervert—planning to torment her before killing her.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Hey~… don’t just fiddle with a girl’s body. People will misunderstand.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A woman’s voice came from behind. From the dark corridor behind Su Xiao, several figures emerged.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At their head was a small figure wrapped entirely in bandages, wearing loose pink clothing and a hood. Because of the bandages, Su Xiao couldn’t see her face.\u003C\u002Fp>",1328,"2026-06-19T23:49:42.795Z",1,"Qwen3-Next 80B","4538c44ffcb351c21d1c379abc1f86962dc4ff6d2a2f8df50201759aa55e565e","paradise-of-reincarnation-chapter-37","paradise-of-reincarnation-chapter-35",1000,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fparadise-of-reincarnation-cover.jpg"]
