From cannon fodder villain to superpowered queen

Bi Yao's smile froze on her lips, and the light in her eyes was gradually replaced by vigilance.

Jiang Ruiyuan also dropped his previous relaxed demeanor, his brows furrowed and his thin lips pressed into a straight line.

There was a tension in the air, like the calm before the storm.

“Yaoyao, this spider pattern…” Jiang Ruiyuan’s voice was low, tinged with unease.

“I’m afraid we’ve gotten ourselves into big trouble.” Bi Yao took a deep breath and glanced at the unconscious thugs on the ground. “I’ve seen this symbol in the database before. It belongs to an extremely secretive and powerful dark organization—'Black Spider'.”

"Black Spider?" Jiang Ruiyuan's pupils contracted slightly. "That infamous, ruthless organization?"

Bi Yao nodded. "That's right. They're involved in a wide range of things, from human trafficking to arms smuggling—they do all sorts of evil. It's said that their leader possesses extremely powerful superpowers, and no one knows his true identity to this day."

The two looked at each other and saw seriousness in each other's eyes.

The crowd of onlookers gradually dispersed, leaving only a mess and a lingering sense of oppression.

"It seems this matter isn't so simple." Jiang Ruiyuan gripped Bi Yao's hand tightly. "Yao Yao, are you scared?"

Bi Yao grasped his hand back, her tone firm, "Afraid? What a joke! We'll meet force with force, and I want to see just how capable this 'Black Spider' really is!"

As the sun set, a fiery red glow burned across the sky, reflecting on their faces and making their expressions appear even more solemn.

In the distance, several furtive figures flashed by, seemingly monitoring their every move.

"Yaoyao, are you really sure? 'Black Spider' is no ordinary organization..." A worried voice came from the crowd.

“Yeah, Yao Yao, why don’t we lay low for a while?” another voice chimed in.

Bi Yao turned to look at those who cared about her, a confident smile appearing on her lips. "Don't worry, I'll be fine. No matter how powerful 'Black Spider' is, I'll protect myself and everyone else."

Jiang Ruiyuan stood beside Bi Yao, his gaze resolute. "That's right, we'll face this together!"

As night falls and the city lights come on, the tense atmosphere in the air cannot be concealed.

Bi Yao and Jiang Ruiyuan stood atop a high-rise building, overlooking the brightly lit city, yet their hearts were filled with unprecedented pressure.

"They're here," Bi Yao said softly.

Jiang Ruiyuan followed her gaze and saw a group of men in black rapidly approaching in the distance...

Night fell like a giant black net, enveloping this bustling metropolis.

On the street, only the dim streetlights shone weakly, as if foreshadowing the approaching storm.

Bi Yao and Jiang Ruiyuan stood back to back, warily watching their surroundings.

The men in black surged in like a tide; they were agile and ruthless, clearly well-trained.

"Tsk, these bastards, they really don't give us a way out!" Jiang Ruiyuan spat, his longsword flashing as he blocked an attack from a man in black.

The clanging of metal was crisp and piercing, sounding particularly eerie in the silent night sky.

Bi Yao brandished her short blade, each strike accompanied by a sharp gust of wind, forcing back any enemies who tried to approach.

However, the number of men in black was vast, and they kept coming one after another, seemingly endless.

She felt as if her strength was being suppressed by something, and she could not exert 70% or 80% of her usual power.

"This can't go on," Bi Yao said anxiously to Jiang Ruiyuan while dodging the attacks. "Their strength is greater than we expected."

Jiang Ruiyuan frowned, his clothes soaked with sweat, but he still gritted his teeth and persevered. "Don't worry, Yao Yao, I won't let you get hurt." As he spoke, he released a powerful supernatural ability, shaking back the men in black around him.

However, their attack was like throwing a stone into the sea, causing negligible damage to the men in black.

The men in black, like a group of sharks that had smelled blood, pounced on them frantically, giving them no chance to breathe.

"Am I going to die here today?" A hint of despair flashed through Bi Yao's mind, but she quickly suppressed it.

No, she can't give up. She still has so much to do. She can't fall here!

Just then, Bi Yao suddenly felt a powerful force surging within her body, as if something had broken free of its restraints and was beginning to wreak havoc inside her.

She felt her body become incredibly light, as if she were about to fly.

"What's going on?" Bi Yao wondered, but she quickly sensed the power of this force.

She clearly felt that the supernatural powers that had attacked her before had been absorbed by her and transformed into her own power!

She began to radiate a dazzling light, like a rising sun illuminating the dark night sky and dispelling the surrounding gloom.

The men in black were stunned by the sudden burst of power and immediately stopped their attack.

"This...how is this possible?" a man in black exclaimed in horror.

Jiang Ruiyuan looked at Bi Yao, who was radiating powerful energy beside him. His Yao Yao was always so powerful!

“It seems it’s time to fight back!” Bi Yao smiled confidently, gripped her short blade, and said to the man in black, “The game… has only just begun!” She vanished in a flash, leaving only an afterimage. The next second, screams rang out one after another.

"Captain, something's wrong, we need to retreat!"

Bi Yao moved like lightning, instantly appearing in front of a man in black. With a swift movement of her short blade, a crisp metallic cutting sound rang out in the air, and the man in black fell to the ground without even being able to scream.

Immediately afterwards, she flashed and appeared behind another man in black like a ghost, swinging her short blade again, splattering blood everywhere.

Jiang Ruiyuan followed closely behind, his longsword drawing silver arcs in the night sky, each swing accompanied by a loud metallic clang.

The men in black fell one after another; their armor was as fragile as paper under Jiang Ruiyuan's sword.

Jiang Ruiyuan's eyes revealed a firm belief, and each of his strikes was precise and powerful, as if he were protecting Bi Yao.

The men in black around them began to panic, their attacks becoming chaotic and disorganized, as if they had lost their command.

Bi Yao felt a powerful force surging within her body, and her short blade began to emit a dazzling light. Each attack was as swift as lightning, knocking the men in black to the ground one by one.

Her movements were as graceful as a dance, yet filled with deadly intent.

"This...how is this possible?" a man in black cried out in terror. His voice echoed in the night sky, but it seemed so insignificant.

The other men in black also stopped their attack, their eyes filled with fear and disbelief.

The light emanating from Bi Yao grew stronger and stronger, illuminating the surrounding darkness and dispelling all the gloom.

"Captain, something's wrong, we need to retreat!" a man in black shouted from the crowd, but it was too late.

Bi Yao's attacks were relentless, like a tidal wave. She seemed to have become a ruthless fighting machine, hitting her target precisely with every strike.

Her short blade flashed with light, and each swing was accompanied by an explosion of supernatural power, sending the men in black flying one by one.

The onlookers were stunned by the amazing scene, and they cheered and applauded Bi Yao's bravery.

Some people even shouted, "Yao Yao, you're too strong!" "This is the power of the Goddess of Superpowers!" Their voices echoed in the night sky, adding to the tense atmosphere of the fierce battle.

Finally, with the fall of the last man in black, the battlefield returned to calm.

Bi Yao and Jiang Ruiyuan stood at the pinnacle of victory, surrounded by the corpses and remains of the enemy.

Although their bodies were exhausted, their eyes were filled with pride and determination.

Jiang Ruiyuan held Bi Yao's hand tightly, their eyes met, and they understood each other without words.

Bystanders swarmed around her, some even kneeling down and shouting, "Long live the goddess!" Bi Yao smiled and nodded. A warm feeling welled up in her heart, knowing that she had not only protected herself but also all those who cared about her.

However, at this glorious moment, Bi Yao suddenly felt a letter in her hand.

She unfolded the letter with a puzzled look. The contents were blurry, but she could vaguely sense an ominous meaning within them.

She clutched the letter tightly.

"It seems a new challenge is about to begin," Bi Yao said in a low voice, her voice deep but filled with unwavering conviction.
