Chapter 185: Bitter Flesh Plot! Waiting by the Tree for a Rabbit!

At that moment, the Black Shadow suddenly advanced, and Cold Light flashed.

Pfft!

Jiang Hua's blood spurted from the back of his neck, his head jerked upward, and his eyes rolled back.

He then turned his head and stared, and his eyes instantly filled with deep resentment and murderous intent.

Thud!

His body fell to the ground with a thud, and blood stained the floor.

Su Yang saw the newcomer, endured the pain and grinned, "You finally came…"

"Risking yourself like that doesn't seem like something you would do."

The newcomer was Zhao Huaillei, who again used the moonlight to transform into a ghostly figure and slipped through the thick fog.

"If I didn't do this, how would you care about me?" Su Yang said.

"If it weren't because you still have some use, who would care about your life or death?" Zhao Huaillei's tone was filled with indifference, yet carried a hint of blame.

Seeing this stance, Su Yang realized that Lin Shuyu had already brought the matter up.

He needed exactly this effect.

"Can you move?" Zhao Huaillei asked.

"I still can't move; it'll probably take some time," Su Yang said helplessly.

He had imagined the horror of Stasis, but hadn't expected this feeling.

It felt like Fish meat on a cutting board, ready to be butchered.

Before arriving, he had already prepared himself mentally and set up a quick‑kill plan.

Unexpectedly, Jiang Hua had wrapped a coil of iron sheet around himself.

He lost the initiative, and also caused him to awaken his Second Personality.

More interestingly…

His Second Personality is homosexual.

That turned out to be an unexpected gain.

"We must leave quickly; this place is not suitable for lingering," Zhao Huaillei said gravely.

"Why rush? He has no strength to fight back anyway," Su Yang said.

"Aren't you curious why there's such a commotion here, yet Tang Youning remains indifferent?" Zhao Huaillei asked.

The words triggered Su Yang to suddenly recall something.

At this moment he felt the surroundings growing increasingly scorching, even the tiled floor beneath his feet began to heat up.

He had sensed something off already when Jiang Hua leaned close to whisper in his ear earlier.

He's not gay, so how could a man have stirred him?

It now appears that Tang Youning had been scheming all along!

Taking advantage of the gap while he tangled with Jiang Hua—

Set fire!

"Take me away!" Su Yang hurriedly said.

"Where to go? Tang Youning must be guarding outside the door," Zhao Huaillei said.

The Villa has already started burning, leaving Su Yang with only two options.

Either break out through the front door, or jump down from the Second Floor.

Now he is under Stasis, unable to act.

He can only rely on Zhao Huaillei for help.

Su Yang had made many preplans; the reason he didn't disturb the thing buried in the soil was partly to avoid startling hidden dangers.

The other reason was to think of turning the plan into a counter‑plan.

Even without that oil‑soaked item, Tang Youning still has thousands of ways to set fire to the house.

What Su Yang didn't expect was that he actually abandoned Jiang Hua…

Planning to wipe them out in one stroke!

"To the corridor bridge!" A resolute flash crossed Su Yang's eyes.

"Useless, the place is that big, and it's still several hours until dawn; Tang Youning will eventually find you."

"You're injured now; do you intend to wait for Stasis to end and then fight him?" Zhao Huaillei frowned.

"Just take me there; I have a way to handle the rest," Su Yang said.

Zhao Huaillei, seeing Su Yang's calm demeanor, couldn't help but look at him deeply, "What you can think of, Tang Youning won't think of?"

"He guessed you'd come; otherwise he wouldn't sit on the mountain watching the tiger fight. His setting fire was only to force me into a dead end," Su Yang said.

"So going to the corridor bridge is exactly what you wanted?"

"I have something that needs confirming." A sharp glint flashed in Su Yang's eyes.

Zhao Huaillei, seeing his persistence, sighed helplessly.

"I saved your life; no matter what method you use, you must be present tomorrow morning!"

"Don't worry, I cherish my life more than anyone."

Thick, rolling smoke rose, and through the windows one could even see the raging flames.

The temperature in the room kept rising, like a steamer.

Zhao Huaillei hoisted the immobilized Su Yang, and their figure, like a light swallow, leapt out of the window.

Su Yang lay on her shoulder; the imagined touch never materialized.

Instead came a strange feeling.

He has been carried before, but being carried by a "ghost" is still his first time.

He landed smoothly, and Su Yang didn't even feel a hint of jolt.

Zhao Huaillei carefully surveyed the surroundings, fearing Tang Youning would notice.

Her Innate Talent's only fear is bright light; if illuminated, Su Yang would surely die.

To protect the "partner," she must be extremely cautious.

She bent down and slipped through the shrubs, the scattered branches brushing Su Yang's Cheek painfully.

"Hey, can you care a bit about my feelings?"

"If you don't want to die, shut your Mouth!" Zhao Huaillei scolded.

Su Yang's posture let him see only the ground, but his Corner of Eye caught the huge Villa already turned into a Fire furnace.

It won't be long before the Villa's contents are destroyed in an instant.

Including—

Jiang Hua!

Zhao Huaillei took a detour past Xu Yuan and finally arrived at the destination—Corridor Bridge.

"Can you move now?"

Su Yang tried to raise his hand, sighed and said, "Still need to wait a while."

"You have more guts than I imagined; I've seen brutes, but this is the first time I've seen someone gamble with their own life." Zhao Huaillei placed Su Yang on the grass.

Su Yang lay spread‑eagled, staring at the star‑filled sky, "Isn't the chance of winning a one‑on‑one duel greater than facing a two‑person beating?"

Zhao Huaillei let out a dry laugh, "Tang Youning probably didn't expect you to take the initiative."

"Yeah, I really didn't expect it."

At that moment, a figure slowly emerged from the Corridor Bridge.

Zhao Huaillei, as if facing a great foe, instinctively raised her weapon, "Tang Youning?"

Accompanied by footsteps, the newcomer's true form was fully revealed under the moonlight.

His rugged features were as sharp as knife‑carved, his Brow filled with sternness.

A stark contrast to his earlier appearance.

Now he resembled a cold‑blooded assassin.

"I've been waiting for you for a long time," Tang Youning said.

"Waiting?"

"Here?"

Zhao Huaillei, without time to think, blurted, "Do you intend to exterminate completely?"

"Of course not; I need Su Yang, who is under Stasis, to do something." Tang Youning approached slowly.

"What for?" Zhao Huaillei raised her blade, her willow‑like brows furrowed.

"None of your business."

Saying so, Tang Youning pulled out a Flashlight and switched it on, pointing at her.

"Ah!"

With a burst of intense light, Zhao Huaillei's face showed pain as she turned to ash.

Immediately, Tang Youning tossed the Flashlight aside and hoisted Su Yang up with one hand.

"Brother Ning, you really hid well," Su Yang couldn't help but sigh.

"You actually knew all along, right? You just couldn't act," Tang Youning turned and walked toward the Corridor Bridge.

"Poor Huangfu Shu, being toyed with by both women and men at the same time," Su Yang shook his head.

"Don't worry, it'll be your turn soon," Tang Youning didn't notice Su Yang's abnormality.

"Sorry, I still have something to take care of."

Saying that, Su Yang suddenly thrust his arm upward, his elbow striking the back of the Brain hard.

Tang Youning winced, losing strength; Su Yang seized the chance to flee, enduring pain as he ran toward the riverbank.

"You can't run!" Tang Youning's eyes flashed with ferocity as he lifted his leg to chase.

"Who said that?"

Su Yang glanced back, then vaulted and leapt into the river.

"Splash!"
