Chapter 304: The Death of Tang Hui! The Final Step!
Puff!
Tang Hui violently spat a mouthful of fresh blood, his whole body sagging, his mouth and tongue rotting.
Half his face swelled like a pig's head, his eyes filled with disbelief and fear.
He never expected that a person who was certain to die would appear right before him.
Most absurdly, he actually walked out of a Portal.
Doesn't that mean…
"Liao Chen?" Tang Hui blurted out.
But as soon as the words left his mouth, Su Yang's mocking gaze met him, "Him?"
"He went back to your hometown."
My hometown?
Tang Hui was stunned at first, then realized, his terror deepening, "Impossible!"
"He's the one who designed the game; how could he possibly lose?!"
The dimensional space was his creation, the game his rule; under such premises, how could he be defeated?
Even if Su Yang were the best at playing games, could he have won over the judge?
Moreover, Liao Chen's gaming skill was already good, even outstanding.
"If you don't believe it, why don't you go back and see?" Su Yang suggested.
Tang Hui looked at his sarcastic expression, his heart suddenly sinking to the bottom of a gorge.
The situation, which had seemed a sure victory, sharply turned downhill due to Su Yang's return.
In that instant, he almost avenged his great hatred.
He was that close—just a tiny bit…
Had Su Yang not suddenly returned, he would have already cut Qin Weiyang beneath his feet.
Su Yang turned his head toward the trembling Qin Weiyang, glancing at the wound on his back.
He saw the blade sink an inch, fresh blood gushing.
"Can you continue?" Su Yang asked.
Qin Weiyang silently turned, revealing a face full of sorrowful, trembling expression.
Su Yang was slightly startled; he had never seen the other display this demeanor.
In his impression, Qin Weiyang was cold and ruthless, seemingly uninterested in anything.
When playing any game, he relied on brute force, slaughtering everything, leaving none.
Now, however, he acted contrary to his nature; Su Yang was very curious about what had happened between them.
"A minor wound, leave it to me," Qin Weiyang said softly.
She swiftly drew the knife embedded in her back, her complexion unchanged, and walked toward Tang Hui.
Sensing the murderous intent everywhere, Tang Hui struggled to swallow, "Do you really intend to exterminate completely? If I die, your parents will have no chance at all."
"I'll find a way myself; I don't need your charity," Qin Weiyang thrust the knife forward, moving as fast as a humanoid cheetah.
From the moment Su Yang returned, she finally shed all mental defenses.
The torment of the brief half hour vanished entirely.
Although Tang Hui's verbal attacks had shattered her heart, at this moment seeing her companion safe, a hint of relief rose in her mind.
Precisely because of that relief, it outweighed countless comforts.
Tang Hui saw Qin Weiyang's resolute face, his eyes bulging.
At this moment he had no strength to retaliate; Su Yang's slap nearly displaced his internal organs.
Facing the lethal assault, he could only reuse his old trick, slipping into the ground.
Qin Weiyang had prepared early, leapt up and flew through the air, his gaze eagle-like scrutinizing the arena.
A shallow trail of flying soil suddenly spread toward the outside of the gate.
She realized…
Tang Hui wanted to run.
"I won't repeat the same Mistake a second time," Qin Weiyang said coldly, lunging forward.
Her action almost caused a disaster; Tang Hui's treachery was beyond imagination.
He used the matter of her parents to launch a mental attack; among the players aware of that past, only he remained alive.
Thus, she figured, instead of asking someone who wanted her dead, she should find a way herself.
The prison was full of infinite possibilities; those with high Rankings could obtain anything they desired.
So…
Tang Hui must die!
Within an instant a hundred-meter distance approached, Qin Weiyang did not rush to strike, but hovered midair, waiting for the duration of 'Burrow Earth' to end.
Sensing the murderous aura from above, Tang Hui was terrified, his Liver and Gallbladder tearing apart, and he ran furiously.
At this moment he was clear that the opponent was serious.
Without Liao Chen's help, he had no plan.
"Damn it, how did he manage to win Liao Chen?" Tang Hui said in anger.
This outcome was truly incomprehensible; Tang Hui couldn't understand how one with such strong Innate Talent could still lose.
The two chased each other, running from the final Checkpoint to the third.
Qin Weiyang pursued relentlessly, constantly hanging over Tang Hui.
At this moment her calm was terrifying, as if she had made a certain resolve.
Three minutes flashed by, and Tang Hui's Innate Talent duration finally ended, erupting violently from the ground.
Seeing this, Qin Weiyang's murderous intent burst forth, diving down to seize the opponent's throat!
"Wait, I still have something to say…" Tang Hui hurriedly waved his hand.
"Sss—"
Before the words were finished, the throat was suddenly sliced by a blade, tearing the windpipe as well.
"Ugh…"
Tang Hui tried to speak, but not a single word escaped.
He struggled to rise, only to find his consciousness growing ever more hazy.
"Bang!"
His body collapsed weakly to the ground, feeling the familiar helplessness and a myriad of fears in his heart.
The thing he feared most… ultimately still happened.
Having died once, dying a second time does not bring any comfort.
On the contrary, Tang Hui fiercely resisted the growing coldness of his body.
As his consciousness sank into boundless darkness, his life stepped into The End.
Qin Weiyang coldly watched the scene, feeling no thrill of revenge, only disgust.
"You should have died long ago."
To prevent any follow‑up, Qin Weiyang raised a hand and added a few more slashes to him, shattering his heart completely.
He also cut off his head.
Then, grabbing Tang Hui's hair, he slowly walked toward the final gate.
Soon, Su Yang looked at the triumphant silhouette and asked, "Resolved?"
"Mm." Qin Weiyang gave a slight nod.
Gazing at her face, cold as frost, Su Yang at that moment seemed to recall the scene of first meeting her.
Curling up on the prison bed, saying nothing, his whole body exuded a nihilistic aura.
"Just one step away…"
Su Yang walked to the golden statue, extracted the two skeletons inside, and ordered the Butcher to smash the golden statue to pieces.
He then laid the corpse flat on the ground, placing it beside Ruan Ziliang's body.
Having completed all this, he retreated to a distance, waiting silently for the outcome.
Qin Weiyang casually tossed Tang Hui's head aside, standing beside him and staring ahead.
Soon after, a group of mischievous wandering souls peeked out, curiously inspecting Ruan Ziliang's corpse.
"'Eternal Night' is ending soon; this is your last chance."
"Wandering abroad, you should return to your own world now."
"Wei Zeming's heavenly spirit, he certainly would not want to see you drifting aimlessly in the mortal world like rootless floating duckweed."
"This corpse is your final chance; after him, there will be no direct descendants of Zhang Hong left."
As Su Yang spoke, the wandering souls hesitated slightly, then all slipped into the earth and vanished.
"They don't want to leave?" Qin Weiyang asked upon seeing this.
"They will certainly leave," Su Yang replied confidently.
