Tomb Raiders: She Comes from the Ancient Martial Arts World

This night was difficult for many people.

Mr. Wang waited for the search results. Wang Cen and Wang Can, who had been repeatedly questioned, led their men to search inside and outside the Wang family home again and again. The lake where Li Cu disappeared was brightly lit.

While locked up, Su Nan heard the emergency assembly whistle from the base, but she could no longer feel any concern or worry for the Wang family. Instead, she became deeply and irrevocably lost in thoughts about Wu Xie.

When Wang Xiaoyuan woke up from the anesthesia, she looked around at the familiar laboratory and felt as if she was recalling those excruciating pains all over her body, inside and out.

She huddled numbly in the cage, staring blankly at her toes, occasionally letting out a silent name: Li Cu.

Wu Xie and the others, far away on the mountain opposite the Wang family's main camp, were also waiting anxiously for dawn to arrive.

Using the triangular light illusion that Wu Xie had taught her, and with the help of a few others, Li Cu successfully completed the "disappearing into thin air" mission. At her hiding place, she quietly watched the second hand of her watch tick forward step by step.

Ling Yue wanted to sleep, but faced with the unblinding gazes from every corner of the room, he tried and, sure enough, couldn't fall asleep!

So let's meditate!

The next day, just as dawn was breaking, there was a knock on Ling Yue's door.

Ling Yue didn't even lock the door, and simply called out "Come in," and Wang Cen pushed the door open and entered.

After entering, he first checked the situation in the room before saying to Ling Yue, "Miss Ling, Mr. Wang wants to see you."

He wasn't in good spirits, and his attitude towards Ling Yue was no longer as polite as it had been yesterday.

Clearly, Mr. Wang's attitude towards Ling Yue changed after that night.

Ling Yue didn't mind and nodded slightly naturally: "Wait a moment, I'll wash up."

Wang Cen frowned, his attitude firm: "Miss Ling, you look fine, we can set off now."

Ling Yue's face finally darkened, and she looked at him coldly: "Are you ordering me around?"

Wang Cen raised his hand and touched the gun at his waist, then gave Ling Yue a cold smile: "It's not an order, it's a threat."

That's quite frank.

Ling Yue sighed: "So there won't be any breakfast to eat?"

Wang Cen cursed inwardly.

After all the chaos last night, the entire Wang family is in complete disarray. Who the hell can possibly prepare breakfast on time?!

He was already impatient with Ling Yue's nonsense and drew his gun, ready to step forward. But before he could finish drawing the gun, Ling Yue suddenly raised his hand and flicked a bright red object at him.

Wang Cen felt a chill between his brows, and his consciousness faded into darkness.

Accompanied by a sentence he would never hear again: "You have such a terrible personality. Here's a ruby ​​for you; I hope you'll be passionate in your next life."

Although the gemstone is fake, the cutting and carving are so bad that they are unbearable to look at.

After saying that, Ling Yue spoke into a camera in the room: "Mr. Wang's hospitality is really not something I like, but my heart is still firmly set on being friends with the Wang family."

She smiled at the camera, a haughty smile tinged with a hint of self-importance: "I hope we can have breakfast together again later."

Mr. Wang, who was staring at Ling Yue through the camera, was ashen-faced. He looked at Wang Cen, who was lying on the ground with a red flower of blood slowly blooming between his eyebrows, and realized that he had provoked a terrible trouble.

Slowing down the surveillance video by more than thirty times, he could clearly see Ling Yue take a tiny, decorative gemstone, about the size of a grain of rice, from the gold bracelet on his wrist. With a flick of his finger, the gemstone struck Wang Cen between the eyebrows at a speed faster than a bullet, killing him instantly.

Whether it's her superhuman martial prowess or her ruthless decisiveness in taking lives with a casual laugh, both prove her extraordinary nature.

We absolutely cannot let her find me!

Mr. Wang gritted his teeth, slammed his fist on the table, stood up and put on his suit jacket. At the same time, he gave Wang Can a death order: "Notify everyone, kill Ling Yue at all costs!"

Wang Can, who also witnessed Ling Yue's attack, knew that they would have to pay a heavy price to kill Ling Yue.

But he didn't hesitate and immediately agreed.

Just then, an explosion suddenly came from outside the base. Mr. Wang, who was about to go to the secret room to hide from Ling Yue, was stunned: "What's going on?"

Without even leaving, Mr. Wang immediately operated the computer and pulled up the external surveillance footage.

Wang Can also turned on his walkie-talkie: "Patrol team, please reply, what's going on outside?"

"An enemy attack! It's the Nine Gates! They've broken in!"

At the same time, Mr. Wang also saw Wu Xie and others in the surveillance footage.

"Wu Xie isn't dead?! Su Nan betrayed the Wang family! Kill her!" Mr. Wang roared in fury, "Traitor!"

By now, is there anything Mr. Wang doesn't understand? Li Cu is simply a smokescreen put out by Wu Xie to keep their suspicious eyes on him.

Meanwhile, Wu Xie isolated Su Nan from the Wang family and attempted to win them over.

Then, return Su Nan, who was successfully turned against his family, and use the information about his faked death to lull the Wang family into a false sense of security regarding the Nine Gates.

At the same time, the location of the Wang family headquarters was inevitably exposed by her!

While Mr. Wang hated the traitor and Wuxie, he was also filled with fear.

How exactly did they manage to fool the system?

Even though Su Nan had already betrayed the Wang family, the system still gave him a 5% chance.

If Wang Cen hadn't been so familiar with her, and if he hadn't become suspicious of Su Nan's prolonged disappearance, she probably would have successfully infiltrated back...

With Wang Cen dead, Wang Can, who had always been the second-in-command of the action team, took over the responsibility of the team leader, issued orders to each group, and went to the place where Su Nan was being held to prepare to execute Su Nan.

No one knew that he also harbored great doubts in his heart.

Back then, Wang Can was exploited by the Tibetan in blue robes, Dan, who used one of the clan rules—that all members of the Wang family must unconditionally obey the orders of those with a large phoenix tattoo on their bodies.

They were forced to provide certain conveniences regarding Li Cu's disappearance.

Therefore, Wang Can was not too shocked by Li Cu's sudden disappearance, except for some curiosity about who the inside agents were.

But Su Nan was able to get a 5% share from the system even after betraying the Wang family.

This was absolutely devastating for Wang Can, who had executed countless members of the Wang family who exceeded the permitted proportions.

Like many members of the Wang family, he once regarded the system as a god and never doubted whether the 30% of people who met the criteria truly deserved to die, even though many of them were people he knew.

His training comrades, his fighting comrades, his friends who helped him, and even his teachers...

Faced with the proportions given by the system, he felt only hatred for their deaths.

They hated their disloyalty to the Wang family, but never considered whether there was another possibility.

His prominent Adam's apple bobbed several times as Wang Can swallowed the surging emotions welling up inside him, his steps were firm, and his gaze was fixed straight ahead.

It was as if only in this way could he remain the same steadfast self.

boom--!

Su Nan looked up and saw that it was Wang Can, who was fully armed, who had come in. He immediately understood why Wang Can had come.

Thinking about how she had abandoned Wuxie for the sake of the Wang family, and how the Wang family had entrusted their lives to her, Su Nan suddenly laughed out loud.

It's self-deprecation, it's irony, and it's also a sense of bewilderment.

Her eyes were red, but her face showed no signs of the exhaustion from a sleepless night. She stood up and looked at Wang Can, her voice a mixture of sigh and murmur: "Wang Can, do you think the system is never wrong?"

This is precisely the question that Wang Can kept asking himself throughout his journey.

His grip on the gun tightened, he gritted his teeth, and said coldly, "Wu Xie is not dead at all. He has led the Nine Gates to attack the base."

Su Nan was taken aback, but instead of feeling angry at being deceived, she felt a sense of relief.

There are some people you can't hate even if you know they've lied to you.

Wang Can stared intently into her eyes: "How exactly did you manage to fool the system?"

Su Nan immediately realized that even this arrogant and ruthless executioner had begun to doubt the system.

She burst out laughing, and the laughter grew louder and louder until tears streamed down her face.

Under Wang Can's piercing, teeth-gritting gaze, Su Nan wiped away her tears, her expression a mixture of crying and laughing, inexplicably revealing a hint of despair.

She said, "Wang Can, don't you already have the answer in your heart?"
