Chapter 583: Terrifying Acid Rain! The Second Expulsion!

Su Yang kept asking, making Zhu Xiang's brow frown tighter.

In his eyes, the other looked like a Monkey that sticks its nose up on its face.

The more he ignored, the more rude it became.

"I have my own plan; I don't need you here pointing and poking, teach me how to act," Zhu Xiang said impatiently.

"Your so-called plan must be killing with a borrowed knife and then burning the bridge after crossing, right?" Su Yang said with a half‑smile.

Zhu Xiang glanced at him and said no more.

Facing Su Yang's aggressive pressure, the best approach is to stay silent.

The more you speak, the easier you fall into a trap.

This seemingly young Ascend God Seed is far more dangerous than he imagined.

Just the fact that the other can retreat unscathed from within the Heavenly Disaster's coverage is enough to prove his methods are extraordinary.

He even managed to keep Cao An safe.

Such an implausible ability, if it were only a Copy, could not possibly be achieved.

Therefore, Zhu Xiang temporarily restrained the arrogance and hostility he had initially displayed.

Like a ferocious spiny‑backed dragon turning into a tame Hakimi.

"If you cannot kill with your own hands, or if you are not allowed to slay the Ascend God Seed barehanded, I guess your next plan is to Sacrifice Sister Dong, right?" Su Yang asked.

Seeing Zhu Xiang remain silent, Su Yang did not intend to stop there, and continued: "You know my character; since Su Peixian has shown murderous intent toward me, I could never let her go."

"So you guess I will strike when she goes out on a task tomorrow; Dong Qianqing happens to be a good opportunity. After killing her, I can smoothly trigger the Heavenly Disaster early, a double win."

"From then on, the whole game will only have you and Cao An left."

"If the Unlock Condition for a rare Hidden Achievement must be locked to fewer than three people, then we can clear early and retreat unscathed as the one who moves the pieces."

"In your eyes, how much threat can a fool who loves playing with stones pose? A few words can dispatch him."

"Compared to others, he is easier to control."

"How about this plan I meticulously crafted for you...?"

Before Zhu Xiang could speak, the situation outside the house changed abruptly.

A foul, pungent smell seeped through the cracks into the house.

Su Yang's nose twitched, his brow furrowed tightly.

The heavy rain continued, but the scene was worlds apart from ten minutes earlier.

Although the first two Heavenly Disasters had left the earth riddled with wounds, the broken plants lay obediently on the ground unchanged.

Now, an earth‑shattering change occurred.

The plants that had been clustered together suddenly underwent a violent chemical reaction under the rain's baptism.

Su Yang watched as the vegetation rapidly dissolved at a visible speed, its contact surface with the rain turning black.

A yellowish gas billowed out, drifting upward.

The same phenomenon was no coincidence; widespread corrosion turned the entire sky into a yellow cloud.

And the pungent gas inside the house was part of that yellow cloud!

"That is... Acid rain?!" Su Yang's face showed solemnity.

He had thought this Heavenly Disaster was just a normal thunderstorm, but it turned out to be a highly corrosive calamity!

"Quick, get a wet towel and block the door cracks!" Su Yang shouted as he rose.

The two women, who had just finished washing dishes, initially didn't understand why Su Yang was so agitated.

Turning around, they smelled the odor that scorched the trachea, and their faces changed abruptly.

Looking on, they saw a nightmarish scene starkly before their eyes.

At that moment, they finally realized the seriousness of the situation.

They hurriedly soaked a cloth and swiftly blocked the two gaps at the top and bottom of the main door.

"Any cloth left?" Su Yang asked.

"None left, only four pieces," Dong Qianqing covered her mouth and nose, shaking her head.

She was especially afraid of this toxic gas; inhaling too much would certainly harm a fetus.

"Bring the tissues!" Su Yang snatched the tissue box from Su Peixian's hand, soaked them all, twisted them into a bundle, and jammed it into the four cracks at the window edge.

"It's actually Acid rain..." Dong Qianqing's eyes were filled with deep surprise and panic.

Such a natural disaster had only occasionally appeared in the era of industrial well eruptions many years ago.

Back then, people had little concept of Acid rain, only knowing it was related to pollution.

Later they learned the extent of Acid rain's damage to people and things.

Its strong corrosive power left everyone disheartened.

After regulation, pollution decreased, and Acid rain was never seen again.

Memories from many years ago resurfaced, and Dong Qianqing subconsciously retreated to the bedside, away from doors and windows.

No one expected that the third Heavenly Disaster alone would already be of this level.

From the plants' fate, it's easy to imagine that a living person standing outside would have their flesh and blood eroded by Acid rain.

Although not as terrifying as concentrated sulfuric acid, a full two hours of washing would be unsurvivable even for the healthiest bodies.

Thinking of this, Su Peixian and Dong Qianqing reluctantly swallowed a mouthful of saliva.

The terror of the Heavenly Disaster finally manifested concretely at this moment.

"Temporarily safe now," Su Yang checked every corner, and after confirming the toxic gas no longer seeped in, he let out a long sigh.

"How long will this rain last?" Su Peixian asked in a low voice.

"Do we need to ask? At least until four A. M.," Su Yang replied slowly.

"I clearly remember at the beginning it was just ordinary rain, how come now…," Dong Qianqing's voice abruptly stopped.

Su Yang stared at the scene outside the window and said, "Each Heavenly Disaster intensifies as time passes, reaching its peak after three hours."

"If it's Expulsion…" Dong Qianqing's brain suddenly conjured an image.

Su Yang nodded, "Certain death, no doubt!"

Within a one‑cubic‑meter space, the falling density of rainwater is far greater than that of hail.

He doesn't even dare guarantee whether Cao An's 'Luck' Innate Talent can survive here.

Luck always favors fools, but it cannot serve as a shield.

At that moment, Cao An was awakened by the commotion caused by Su Yang and others, rubbing his sleepy eyes, "Is it daylight?"

"It's still early," Su Yang replied offhand.

"Oh, then I'll sleep a bit longer."

Having said that, Cao An flopped his head onto the Pillow and kept snoring.

"What about him?" Dong Qianqing asked softly, leaning in a few steps.

"Leave it to Heaven's decree," Su Yang said in a low voice.

Even though he greatly needs Cao An's Innate Talent, faced with the pervasive Acid rain and the intense corrosive gas outside, he cannot offer any substantive help.

He can't just leap out and protect his life with Deception.

The returns don't proportionally outweigh the risk, so Su Yang won't take the chance.

"Where's Su Peixian?" Su Yang turned his head and saw that familiar Qianying vanish.

"Why are you looking for me?"

At that moment, the latrine door opened, and a gaunt Su Peixian stepped out.

"Just checking on you, nothing more," Su Yang said.

Su Peixian let out a light hum, sat on her own bed, and silently stared out the window.

"Dong—"

Finally, with a bell toll, it's 2 a. m.!
