From cannon fodder villain to superpowered queen

Deep underground, an indescribable and terrifying power suddenly erupted, like a sleeping beast suddenly awakened, roaring to devour everything.

The warm atmosphere was instantly shattered, and Bi Yao and Jiang Ruiyuan's faces turned ashen in an instant.

"Holy crap! What the hell?!" Bi Yao exclaimed in surprise. This sudden turn of events caught her off guard. One second she was still immersed in the joy of victory, and the next second she felt like death was chasing her frantically.

Jiang Ruiyuan was also stunned. He instinctively shielded Bi Yao behind him, his body tense as if facing a formidable enemy.

The force came too fast and too fiercely, freezing the two of them in place as if they were nailed to the ground, unable to move.

The surrounding air seemed to freeze, and a suffocating sense of oppression came from underground, making it hard for them to breathe.

The ground began to shake violently, and cracks spread out like a spider web, making a teeth-grinding "creaking" sound.

The space that had been purified by Jiang Ruiyuan was once again shrouded in darkness, and a chilling aura lingered around them like a ghost.

Bi Yao's heart was pounding wildly, the "thump-thump-thump" sound deafening, as if it were about to leap out of her chest.

She felt that her own strength was like a drop in the ocean, ridiculously insignificant in the face of this powerful force.

"It's over, Barbie Q is gone..." she thought in despair. Could this be the legendary "grand finale playing out ahead of schedule"?

Not reconciled!

She was unwilling to let it end like this!

She hasn't changed the villain's fate, hasn't revealed the truth in the book, and hasn't reached the pinnacle of her life!

She still has so much to do!

"I won't give up!" Bi Yao gritted her teeth, trying to overcome her inner fear. She clenched her fists so tightly that her nails dug deep into her flesh, trying to use the pain to keep herself awake.

The surrounding space seemed to become even more oppressive as her emotions fluctuated, and a strong sense of despair permeated the air.

However, the light in her eyes grew brighter and brighter, like stars twinkling in the darkness, stubborn and determined.

Jiang Ruiyuan felt Bi Yao trembling, and he held her hand tightly...

Jiang Ruiyuan's eyes were like the brightest star in the night sky, firm and profound. He held Bi Yao's hand tightly, as if he wanted to pass on his strength to her.

"Don't be afraid, Bi Yao! I'm here!" His voice was deep and powerful, as steady as a rock, and every word was filled with undeniable strength.

A warm current flowed into Bi Yao's body from where their palms met, dispelling the fear in her heart, like a sweet spring nourishing parched land.

She looked up and met Jiang Ruiyuan's trusting eyes, and a long-lost courage rekindled in her heart.

Yes, she is not alone; Jiang Ruiyuan is by her side!

“Yes!” Bi Yao nodded heavily. She gripped Jiang Ruiyuan’s hand tightly as if she had grasped a lifeline, or as if she had grasped the bond between them.

Their eyes met; no words were needed, everything was understood.

The trust between them is as fervent as a raging fire and as solid as a rock, making it all the more precious in times of crisis.

Just then, the ground shook even more violently, as if it were the prelude to a volcanic eruption.

Countless pebbles tumbled and surged from the depths of the earth, converging to form ferocious rock giants.

They stand several meters tall, their bodies made of hard rock, like demons from ancient mythology, their imposing presence awe-inspiring and terrifying.

"Holy crap! What is this thing? A giant version of a rock giant?" Bi Yao couldn't help but swear. The appearance of these rock giants made her feel like she had entered a horror movie scene.

She stared wide-eyed, trying to find a flaw in these giants, but they seemed immortal, without a single weakness.

The rock giant strode with heavy steps, each step causing the earth to tremble.

They swung their enormous fists, smashing them down on Bi Yao and Jiang Ruiyuan like iron hammers.

The attack was accompanied by a fierce wind and a deafening roar.

The two had to hide and evade the overwhelming attacks, each time narrowly escaping death.

"This firepower is too intense!" Bi Yao complained while dodging, feeling like she was playing a "dodgeball" game, except the difficulty level of this game was hellish.

She could clearly feel the powerful wind from the rock giant's fist, which stung her cheeks as if they were being cut by a knife.

"Stop talking nonsense, figure out a way to break through first!" Jiang Ruiyuan shouted in a low voice, his eyes sharp as an eagle, constantly searching for weaknesses in the rock giant's attack.

He nimbly dodged the rock giant's attacks while protecting Bi Yao behind him; his figure was as reliable as a mountain.

The two stood back to back, desperately resisting the rock giant's attack.

Their seamless teamwork, as natural and fluid as flowing water, made their evasion more efficient.

However, as time went on, the rock giants' attacks became increasingly fierce, like waves of tides, leaving them exhausted.

Bi Yao's breathing gradually became rapid, and sweat slid down her forehead. She felt her strength being gradually depleted.

However, the light in her eyes grew brighter and brighter; she couldn't give up!

Absolutely not!

“Jiang Ruiyuan, I…” Bi Yao was about to speak when Jiang Ruiyuan suddenly interrupted her.

"Shh, don't speak, I feel..."

Bi Yao felt a surge of heat flowing through her body; it was the energy carried by the rock giant during its attack, which was now being frantically absorbed by her special physique.

She felt as if her body had become a giant furnace, constantly refining this violent energy and transforming it into her own power.

A powerful aura erupted from her, golden light shone around her, like a war god descending, sacred and inviolable.

"Holy crap, what's going on?!" Jiang Ruiyuan was stunned by what he saw. He stared at Bi Yao with his mouth agape, as if he had witnessed some kind of miracle. "Bi Yao, you're like a walking power bank! That's amazing!"

Bi Yao's lips curled up slightly, revealing a confident smile. She clenched her fists, feeling the surging power within her body, like a volcano about to erupt.

"Hehe, this feels great!" She flexed her wrists and looked at the menacing rock giants.

"Watch me, I'll show you what it means to 'fight fire with fire'!" Bi Yao shouted, and with a flash, she rushed towards the rock giant like an arrow released from a bow.

She swung her fist, concentrating the absorbed energy into it, and slammed it down hard on the rock giant.

With a deafening roar, a huge crater appeared in the rock giant's body, sending debris flying and creating a screeching sound.

Its body trembled violently, and it let out a painful roar. Its massive body swayed precariously, as if it were about to collapse at any moment.

Jiang Ruiyuan was equally unyielding. His figure moved like a ghost among the rock giants, and the power in his hands condensed into sharp blades that accurately struck the rock giants' vital points.

The two worked together seamlessly, like tigers among sheep, defeating the arrogant rock giants and leaving them utterly helpless.

Seeing the rock giants smashed to pieces, Bi Yao and Jiang Ruiyuan cheered excitedly, high-fiving each other and feeling the joy of victory.

"Yes! We won!"

Jiang Ruiyuan picked Bi Yao up and gently kissed her forehead. The tender touch was as soft as a feather, yet carried a slight electric current, instantly making Bi Yao's cheeks flush. She lowered her head shyly, not daring to look directly into Jiang Ruiyuan's loving eyes.

A sweet atmosphere filled the air between the two, and everything around them seemed to be coated with a romantic hue.

At this moment, their eyes met, and without words, their love for each other had already penetrated to the bone.

Just as they were basking in this moment of warmth, the sky suddenly darkened, as if covered by a giant black hand, and the once bright space instantly fell into a deathly silence.

A colossal figure loomed in and out of the clouds, like a sleeping beast slowly awakening.

"What is that?" Bi Yao murmured to herself, her voice tinged with fear. Her eyes were fixed on the huge black shadow, and her breathing became rapid. She instinctively gripped Jiang Ruiyuan's hand tightly.
