Chapter 272

The two sides confronted each other, each player harboring their own thoughts.

But the held hostage Ruan Ziliang was blank-faced, his terrified eyes filled with a trace of dread.

Just because he saw this scene in front of him, his brain suddenly crashed.

The large space was filled with old desks and chairs, and a broken blackboard split in two hung on the wall.

Everything around was filled with a bizarre aura.

"This is a..."

"Underground classroom?"

Ruan Ziliang's gaze fell on Su Yang, discovering that the other party was holding a folding knife and dragging a man with a severed arm.

The blood-dripping palm was enough to explain what had just happened.

Standing to the side was also a girl with a beautiful face, but at this moment, compared to her previous coldness, she had a bit more anger and killing intent.

"Classmate Xin Yao is here too?"

This completely confused him.

Especially when he saw the 'Faceless Person', the horror in his heart was beyond measure.

He never imagined that supernatural entities actually existed!

Urban legends weren't just legends!

"I'll say it one more time, let him go." 'Dong Ya' ordered.

As she spoke, the blade pressed against the skin moved closer, and a bloodstain appeared.

Feeling the pain, Ruan Ziliang's face turned pale, and he hurriedly begged: "Don't kill me, I don't know anything!"

Su Yang remained unmoved and said slowly: "Threatening me with an ordinary student? It seems your brain isn't working very well."

Xue Yong's value at this moment was incomparable.

How could he let go because of so-called classmate friendship?

Besides, what did Ruan Ziliang's life or death have to do with him?

"Maybe you don't know, I brought him out in your name, the dorm manager already knows about this; if he doesn't return before the bed check, guess what the outcome will be?" 'Dong Ya' asked.

"Do you think we'll believe your ghost stories?" Qin Weiyang said coldly.

"Just by this face of mine!" 'Dong Ya' stepped forward a few steps, coming to the horse-faced man's side.

Seeing his reinforcements so tough, Xue Yong's previous terror instantly vanished.

"Still not letting me go obediently?"

Qin Weiyang was furious: "Despicable and shameless!"

She hadn't expected the other party to use such a despicable scheme.

Borrowing Su Yang's name to bring someone out, if they didn't return within the specified time.

And if Ruan Ziliang appeared in the public eye in the form of a corpse, Su Yang's outcome could be imagined.

The dorm manager was a Guardian, colluding with Dong Ya; he would certainly be happy to mess with a Treasure Hunter.

In the absence of evidence, once a corpse appeared, they would say whatever they wanted.

At that time, even if Su Yang had ten thousand mouths, he wouldn't be able to explain it clearly.

Once the mud is on your pants, it's shit even if it isn't.

"Stop with the full mouth of benevolence and morality; everyone is here for the treasure, and everyone has done plenty of shameful things." 'Dong Ya' said.

"Releasing the person is possible, but I want the diary." Su Yang stated the condition.

"You aren't qualified to negotiate; I am the one ordering you now." 'Dong Ya' flatly refused.

"So that means there's nothing to talk about?" Su Yang shook his head and smiled: "Go ahead and do it."

What?!

Not only Ruan Ziliang, but 'Dong Ya' was also shocked.

"Have you thought it through? You'd rather have the treasure than your life?"

Su Yang didn't care and said: "There's an hour left until bed check; you can try and see whether I'm the one who's unlucky, or you're the one who dies faster!"

At this moment, it was like a tripod standing; once the balance was broken, the consequences were unimaginable.

With the 'Faceless Person', a time bomb, by their side, no one could guarantee they could escape unscathed.

At this time, Su Yang took out a key, waved it, and said: "You subdued the Faceless Person but couldn't enter the next level; you must be missing this, right?"

Xue Yong looked up, his eyes widening: "It's in your hands?"

The horse-faced man's heart was shaken; they had actually solved the 'Faceless Person' long ago, but were just missing the key item.

They hadn't been able to clear the level for a long time.

They had been searching during this time as well.

But they had never had any gains.

He never expected that this key was actually in Su Yang's hands.

"Hand over the key, and I'll release the person now!" 'Dong Ya' said excitedly.

"What about him?" Su Yang asked, lowering his eyes.

"Do whatever you want with him, I only want the key!"

"Hehe..." Su Yang smiled upon hearing this.

Sure enough, in the face of interests, seemingly solid relationships would collapse on their own.

Xue Yong gritted his teeth: "Without me, none of you will ever get the treasure!"

"You take yourself too seriously; the diary is indeed important, but it's just a tool for verification." Su Yang said.

"You are all too naive! There is one last level behind this; if you don't have my instructions, you will all die!" Xue Yong said loudly.

He was trying his best to prove his value now.

His goal wasn't just to survive, but to occupy the dominant position.

But Su Yang had long seen through his little thoughts and said: "Your abacus is well-played, but I won't make a single trade tonight."

Things had reached this point, and he had seen through the nature of this group of people.

To be precise, the other party had no cards that could threaten him.

Whether it was Xue Yong or 'Dong Ya'.

Their methods were nothing more than threats.

The best way to deal with such people is to flip the table.

Don't give them any chance.

"What do you mean?" 'Dong Ya' questioned.

"It's very simple." Su Yang threw Xue Yong aside and beckoned: "I want the person, and I want the key too."

Seeing this, 'Dong Ya' was furious: "You dare to play me?"

"Since that's the case, then no one will have an easy time!"

"Let's see how much ability you have today."

As he spoke, fierce energy surged in his eyes, and he exerted force on his arm, cutting toward Ruan Ziliang's throat.

Feeling the movement behind him, Ruan Ziliang closed his eyes tightly, feeling despair.

"Ah!"

Suddenly, a shrill scream came from behind.

Ruan Ziliang quietly opened his eyes and subconsciously touched his neck, discovering that the imagined pain hadn't appeared.

Turning his head, he discovered that 'Dong Ya' had been captured by a fierce supernatural entity, his body bending bit by bit, like a human arch bridge.

"This is... the Butcher?" The horse-faced man was scared out of his wits and hurriedly retreated.

He had long heard of the name of this supernatural entity.

Compared to the elusive 'Faceless Person', the Butcher's terror was, to some extent, even greater.

He saw that amidst the screams, 'Dong Ya' struggled desperately, the small knife constantly stabbing toward the Butcher's head.

But no matter how hard he tried, he couldn't cause any substantial damage to it.

In the end, he could only watch helplessly as his body twisted bit by bit, until...

It folded in two.

'Snap!'

Accompanied by a crisp sound, 'Dong Ya's' eyes turned white, and he was completely dead.

Ruan Ziliang, who had survived the disaster, ran to Su Yang's side without stopping; terrified and confused, this was his first time seeing someone die miserably in front of him.

For some reason, he didn't have the feeling of nausea or wanting to vomit.

Instead, a sense of excitement surged up.

"The Butcher is still alive?" Qin Weiyang reacted from her daze, her eyes filled with confusion.
