Dormitory group chat, my information updated daily.

In the cave where Chen Xiaoyun and Meng Yao were hiding, a black light suddenly shone from the broken altar.

The two women were startled and quickly grabbed their weapons, getting into a fighting stance.

The light slowly faded, and a familiar figure appeared in sight.

"Xiao Yun?"

Chen Xiaoyun exclaimed in surprise, and seeing Xiao Yun covered in blood, she quickly went to greet him.

"What happened to you? Who did you fight? How did you get so badly injured?"

"It's not my blood..."

Xiao Yun sighed softly, his voice somewhat weak.

Although he wasn't seriously injured, the blood-burning effect of the fifteenth level [Poem of Blood and Fire] still reduced his health by more than half.

But he can't care about that now.

"Do you have a mat? A blanket will do too, just something soft."

Xiao Yun stood there, holding Wang Tianyuan, stunned.

The corpse in his arms was growing cold and stiff, and the blood on the dagger stuck in its chest had dried and turned black.

Chen Xiaoyun also noticed the anomaly, reached out to check Wang Tianyuan's breath, and then withdrew as if she had been electrocuted.

"Oh my god..."

She covered her mouth, almost crying.

"Use this blanket, it's clean."

Meng Yao handed over a blanket, her eyes red and her voice trembling slightly.

"Thanks."

Xiao Yun took the blanket, looked around the burial site, and finally turned around and placed Wang Tianyuan's body on the altar.

Covering his chest with a blanket to conceal the horrific wound, Xiao Yun gazed at his tightly closed eyes with a deep, unsettling look.

To be honest, he didn't like Wang Tianyuan's spoiled personality. He was impulsive, loved to show off, and didn't consider the consequences... He was practically the opposite of himself.

but……

Suddenly, Xiao Yun heard a phantom arrow whistling in his ear.

In a daze, Wang Tianyuan, who was full of vigor and shouted, "Who dares to bully my brother?", reappeared before my eyes.

Xiao Yun came to her senses and found that there were two lines of tears on her face.

"What a troublesome guy..."

Even though it's dead, it's still wandering around like it's still alive.

Xiao Yun reached out and covered his face with the blanket.

"Ah Yuan, wait for me a moment..."

His voice was so calm, but the two women standing beside him couldn't help but tremble, feeling an extreme chill.

"I'll put those three guys' heads in front of you."

Not just those three guys, but all the members of the Radiant Order who came today, and the entire Radiant Order in Dormitory Building 4!

Are you... getting ready to go back now?

"Why go back now? To die?"

Xiao Yun chuckled lightly. In his severely weakened state, the durability of the [Emblem of Blood and Fire] was almost depleted, making it insufficient to sustain high-intensity combat.

He looked at the entrance to the cave, where rays of bright moonlight shone in.

Night has fallen, and dawn is not far away...

Xiao Yun sat down against the altar, activated [Calm Mind], and forcefully suppressed the anxiety in his heart.

He was like a volcano about to erupt; outwardly calm, but deep within, a terrifying power was brewing.

At the moment of eruption, the raging flames were enough to incinerate the heavens and boil the seas, turning the world to ashes...

Time ticked by, and Chen Xiaoyun and Meng Yao sat there, almost frantic with anxiety.

Never has a night felt as long as today's; a few short hours felt like an eternity.

"Time, please hurry... hurry up..."

However, their prayers did not bring them good fortune.

In the dark forest, golden vertical pupils gleamed as they looked at the fallen giant tree.

There, amidst the earthy smell, a familiar scent of blood drifted by, which his incredibly sharp sense of smell, heightened by his beast-like transformation, caught.

"We've found you!"

Jin Cheng's lips curled into a cruel smile as he picked up the walkie-talkie:

"Everyone, to the northwest, about two kilometers away, the prey is here."

"Ash received. The 13 closest cultivators will arrive within three minutes. The Thousand-Faced One is already on his way."

Cui Shan's voice paused for a moment on the walkie-talkie.

Amidst the cacophony of static, the cold, deep voice rang out once more:

"Golden Beast...you are permitted to fully transform into your beast form. Make sure you kill them!"

"Um."

Jin Cheng answered calmly, but a pleased smile appeared on his lips.

Finally, I can have some fun!

In less than three minutes, the flashlight beam illuminated the surrounding forest, getting closer and closer.

Soon, the monks of the order gathered.

"Golden Beast Priest, all 13 cultivators have arrived. Shall we begin the operation?"

Jin Cheng nodded and waved:

"action!"

A group of people emerged from the woods and, bathed in moonlight, quickly approached the fallen giant tree.

10 steps...

30 steps...

70 steps...

A dark cave entrance appeared before them, and Jin Cheng's golden eyes gleamed with dazzling light. His two sharp claws rubbed together, making a cracking sound.

He could almost hear the prey's accelerated heartbeat and see the terror and despair on their faces.

But the next second, a figure suddenly appeared and blocked his way, interrupting his enjoyment.

"Stop!"

Beneath the heavy mask, a cold, resolute voice emanated, revealing an unwavering determination.

Jin Cheng was taken aback, somewhat puzzled.

I found this place using my powerful tracking ability after transforming into a beast, so how did this guy find it?

"Who are you?"

"Chu Yuhang".

"Chu Yuhang?"

Jin Cheng frowned, as if he had remembered something.

This appears to be the name of a servant within the cult...

But now they're standing on the opposite side?

"Heh, so you're the traitor prophesied by the Lord of Radiance!"

Jin Cheng's face was full of a fervent smile, and he excitedly waved his arms and legs.

It matches up! Everything matches up!

"On the bones of the traitor, the crimson flames of judgment will toll the final death knell!"

"Today, I am the executioner!"

Jin Cheng bared his claws and roared:

"You... deserve to be beheaded!"

Chu Yuhang was extremely focused, staring intently at Jin Cheng, who was like a ferocious tiger, ready to respond to his attack at any moment.

However, he still underestimated the power of professionals.

He only saw a blur before his eyes, and he had already lost sight of his target.

"So fast... Where is it! Where is it!"

Chu Yuhang hurriedly turned his head and looked around through the narrow field of vision of the mask.

Under the pale moonlight, Jin Cheng's ferocious beast form was not visible.

call--

Suddenly, the sound of wind arose.

A sudden chill ran down his spine, and Chu Yuhang was startled, quickly dodging.

But it was too late.

hiss-

The sharp claws easily tore through the metal shell covering his body and ripped apart his bulletproof vest.

The excruciating pain of flesh being torn apart came from behind, and the cold wind rushed into the wound, causing Chu Yuhang to shudder.

This is not an opponent I can handle...

"Heh, kid, wearing such a thick iron shell, did you prepare your coffin a long time ago?"

Jin Cheng reappeared in sight, licking the remaining flesh and blood on his claws with a mocking expression.

He was a little worried just now, but now it seems that the kid in front of him is weaker than he imagined.

To send such a weak person to stop them, Xiao Yun's side is truly at its wit's end.

It seems that I don't need a chameleon; I can complete the task perfectly on my own.

Just as I was thinking this, the iron block in front of me suddenly started to move.

Chu Yuhang dragged his heavy body to the entrance of the cave.

"Brother Yuan's calculations are spot on. After putting this metal shell on, it will be just right to block the hole."

Beneath the mask, Chu Yuhang smiled.

According to Wang Tianyuan's plan, by the time he arrived here, the plan would already be half completed.

"The remaining half... I have no way to deal with it, Space."

Wang Tianyuan's final words echoed in his ears, and Chu Yuhang still remembered the look in his eyes when he said those words.

The gambler's desperate madness was tinged with pleading and prayer.

"Whether the final plan succeeds or not depends on you, Yuhang."

The Gray Death Realm relies on mental cohesion. Even if they were to start over, Wang Tianyuan didn't know if Chu Yuhang could single-handedly withstand the attack of a professional and the reinforcements behind him.

But he had no other choice. He would dissipate the moment the original owner died, while the others would be closely monitored, and Qi Xiaoran of the student council could not be trusted.

Only Chu Yuhang, who has yet to show his talent, can be considered the only variable to break the deadlock.

"This plan is difficult, extremely difficult, even..."

"Even what?"

"Whether you succeed or not, you will die..."

"Then... if it succeeds, will Brother Yun live?"

"meeting……"

Wang Tianyuan lowered his head when he said this, not daring to look at Chu Yuhang.

If the plan succeeds, everyone, including himself, will survive.

Only Chu Yuhang will die...

He knew his plan was extremely selfish, and he even thought that Chu Yuhang, once he realized what was going on, would reject it.

It's human nature to beg for life and fear death.

But to everyone's surprise, Chu Yuhang simply let out a long breath and nodded with a smile:

"That's good!"

"Now, I can stand proudly beside Brother Yun, right...?"

Just as he was thinking, the roaring tiger interrupted his thoughts.

The tiger, bathed in moonlight, brandished its sharp claws; death was imminent.

bang bang bang-

My heart was pounding, and my blood and muscles were trembling.

In that instant, he recalled the moment when he rolled the dice in a role-playing game.

Unfortunately, he was unlucky and never had a big win.

Fortunately, fate never plays dice.

"I just asked my heart, and it told me that the success rate of today's plan is 100%."

A faint smile played on Chu Yuhang's lips as his eyes slowly turned grayish-white.
