Chapter 566: Child

Demonic sound pierced his ears, and his Gallbladder shivered continuously.

Wang Daohui felt the sharp knife across his Neck, his Throat churned, and he struggled to swallow a mouthful of saliva.

He, whose complexion was deathly pale, had never imagined he would be so close to death.

Although he knew Su Yang's ability, he had also considered that Su Yang might strike him.

Yet he still hadn't thought of it…

That it would be this feeling.

Terror, despair, unwillingness, resentment…

The myriad emotions intertwined, causing his face to become extremely twisted.

"I admit I lost, and you will not spare my life." Wang Daohui forced down his panic, speaking each word deliberately.

Su Yang turned his head, glanced at the direction Zhu Xiang was chasing, and softly said, "From what you said… could it be that you have a secret worth a life?"

"Before I die, I only ask you to give me a quick thrill; beyond that, I ask for nothing." Wang Daohui clenched his teeth tightly and slowly closed his eyes.

"You really guessed right; I originally intended to carve your flesh off piece by piece, and also dismantle your bones and organs, in order to submit the Task." Su Yang whispered close to his ear.

As those words left his mouth, Wang Daohui's body jolted, and his mind involuntarily imagined that scene.

The sharp Small Knife peeled and twitched again and again, and he watched helplessly as his life marched toward The End.

Living is worse than death!

"Wanting a quick thrill is simple; let me see your value." Su Yang said.

"There truly is an earth‑shattering secret hidden here; I stumbled upon it while doing a Task yesterday, and have not told anyone until now." Wang Daohui was about to turn his head, but Su Yang held him tightly.

"Tell me then." Su Yang said with interest.

"I'm not sure what outcome this secret concerns, but it must be closely linked to some player here." Wang Daohui made a dumb riddle.

"Cut the nonsense; I don't have time to listen to your rambling." Su Yang's brows gradually showed a hint of impatience.

"It's of great importance; come over." Wang Daohui's eyes flashed with an inexplicable Radiance.

Su Yang quietly looked at him twice, and moved his body a few steps closer.

"The secret I speak of…"

As Wang Daohui spoke, a shocking murderous intent suddenly burst from his eyes.

"Die!"

Suddenly, the broken nose bridge shot out two Blood Arrows, heading straight for Su Yang's brow.

In an instant, Su Yang's subconscious leaned back, but the Blood Arrows' speed was comparable to a Bullet, and they instantly pierced through his cheek.

The next moment, the wound swelled rapidly, and the once graceful face puffed up like a pig's head.

Wang Daohui, taking advantage of his dazed state from the injury, turned around and raised his nearly broken arm to aim.

"As for the so‑called secret, I'll tell you in the next life!"

"Swish!"

As the Blood Arrow surged, Su Yang's lips twitched slightly, and faintly one could hear the words "No Injury", "Teleport".

Just as Wang Daohui anticipated the gruesome death scene of Su Yang, the Blood Arrow suddenly pierced through his chest.

"Ha…"

Wang Daohui was about to burst into loud laughter, but saw the Silhouette before him dissolve into a afterimage and vanish.

What?!

Seeing this, his pupils suddenly contracted, and two words flashed in his mind—

Innate Talent?

"Are you looking for me?"

Suddenly, a voice as nightmarish as a dream echoed from behind.

Wang Daohui's whole body bristled with goosebumps, and he turned his head with difficulty.

He saw a face as cold as frost, just within arm's reach.

A pair of Red Gemstone‑like dazzling eyes flickered with a chilling murderous intent, followed immediately by a flash of Cold Light.

"Pfft!"

The knife tip sliced the skin, and fresh blood spurted out.

"Ugh!"

Wang Daohui, eyes full of disbelief, covered his neck, staggered backward, and finally collapsed to the ground.

"Such despicable trick can only fool a greenhorn just starting the game; you regard me far too much as a human." Su Yang said coldly.

"You… want…"

Wang Daohui tried to speak, but the blood constantly gushing from his mouth blocked him.

His trachea ruptured, an indescribable suffocating sensation enveloped his body, and his consciousness gradually blurred.

When his arms grew limp and hung down, Wang Daohui finally died.

"Wasting time…"

Su Yang shook his head inwardly; he had originally intended to pry something out of the other's mouth with this.

For example, a secret concerning Li Xin, or perhaps who originally used an Innate Talent at sea to frame him.

He just didn't expect Wang Daohui would employ such child's trick to cheat and slither.

The Blood Arrow's attack range must be within visible range, so Su Yang, standing behind him, could never launch an offensive.

The so‑called in‑game secret was most likely a fabricated, baseless thing he invented for retaliation.

It required Zhu Xiang to chase far enough away; otherwise Su Yang would never dare to play like this.

Looking at his corpse, Su Yang reached out and touched his chest.

Copy successful, you have obtained player Wang Daohui's Innate Talent—Blood Arrow (Second Tier).

Blood Arrow (Second Tier) — uses the blood in the body to condense into an arrow to strike objects within visual range; Innate Talent prerequisite condition: bleeding; duration: permanent; cooldown time: none.

Indeed…

Su Yang nodded silently, already having a considerable understanding of the Innate Talent's strength.

"First Tier and Second Tier's difference… where is it?"

To verify, Su Yang took a knife to slash his palm; as blood flowed out, his thought sparked, and the fresh blood instantly condensed into a one‑inch Blood Arrow.

The Blood Arrow was crystal clear, its color vivid, full of texture, like a work of art.

As Su Yang raised his hand and pointed a finger, a sharp whooshing sound rang out.

"Snap!"

A large tree a hundred meters away was instantly pierced by the Blood Arrow, and its momentum continued unabated.

Until its force completely vanished, it fell into the grass three hundred meters away.

Su Yang lifted the Blood Arrow and examined it closely, finding that aside from slight damage at the tip, the rest remained intact.

"Its power rivals that of a sniper rifle, truly a killing move," Su Yang nodded in satisfaction.

Wang Daohui's progress so far must be due to his underhanded method of firing cold arrows.

With just that little brain, if he didn't have some special means, he would have died ten thousand times already.

With the enemy dead, Su Yang couldn't help feeling much better.

Li Xin lost a "General", and the team will inevitably be at a disadvantage in the upcoming "Betting Game".

Su Yang hopes his Dependents can safely get through this Death Game.

At that moment, a sudden footstep sound rang out.

"Hehe, the plane is really fun."

He was just about to hide, but saw two silhouettes appear ahead.

"Is it you?" the Woman and Su Yang said in unison.

Cao An, seeing this, excitement spilling from his words, lunged at Su Yang.

As always, he dove into his embrace, greedily inhaling his scent.

It was like a swallow returning to its nest, full of attachment.

"How did you end up here?" Su Yang narrowed his eyes, a barely perceptible fierce glint flashing in his pupils.

"We were looking for a Safe Zone, and unintentionally ended up here," the Woman explained.

"Is that so, what a coincidence?" Su Yang said with a half‑smile.

He clearly remembered that not long ago, when he and Zhu Xiang headed toward the Eastern Direction Forest, they had run into the two.

But the two's original route was the Western Direction.

Now they have inadvertently entered the Southern Direction area, and happened to meet.
