Chapter 104 Contest
Fang Di opened his mouth and ate the grapes peeled by the girl next to him, giving orders casually as if discussing the weather.
"I'll give you five minutes to stab each other. The one with the least injuries alive will win."
As soon as these words were spoken, the expression that Shao Leyan had tried so hard to control finally began to crack.
She looked at Fang Di in disbelief, and happened to meet his playful eyes.
Only then did Shao Leyan recognize the woman standing next to her.
In other words, the woman watching her from upstairs was Yu Xin, the healing psychic as mentioned by Xing Lu and others.
At this time, Yu Xin's body was shaking non-stop, but she did not react as strongly as Shao Leyan. She squatted down and picked up the dagger on the ground with her hands trembling like epilepsy.
She tried to hold the dagger several times but couldn't hold it. She smashed it on the ground again and again. The crisp sound hit her eardrums, making her feel anxious and impatient.
Shao Leyan couldn't bear to watch it any longer, so he picked up two daggers and put one of them in Yu Xin's hand.
As she leaned over, she placed her lips close to Yu Xin's ear and spoke in a voice that only the two of them could hear.
"We have no choice."
Yu Xin calmed down and gathered her composure, and took advantage of the moment when Shao Leyan just stood up and was careless to swing the dagger at her.
The sharp blade made a tingling sound as it scraped through the flesh beneath the thin clothing. Wen Youheng was so shocked that his heartbeat stopped for a moment. He clenched his fists tightly, and veins bulged on his arms.
Wen Youheng was confused because of his concern, but the others were not. To them, this sound was no different from a breeze, and such bloody scenes could be seen everywhere.
The end of the world has been going on for too long, so long that they have become accustomed to living on the edge of a knife and have become numb to things like killing and seeing blood.
Yu Xin held the bloody dagger in his hand, a happy smile on his face.
She was responsible for medical treatment in the team. Even Fang Di came to her when he had a scratch on his arm, but no one knew about it. She also wanted to gain everyone's respect with her absolute supernatural strength like Xing Lu.
Instead of being forcibly detained by the leader because of her life-saving healing ability, others were only kind to her when they needed her.
Shao Leyan frowned as he looked at Yu Xin who was laughing out loud, and his compassionate heart that had originally wanted to spare her life began to waver.
Maybe her abilities are kind enough, but she is different from the abilities she awakened.
If she could choose, she would probably prefer to have an aggressive ability like Xing Lu's.
While she was thinking, Shao Leyan faced Yu Xin's second attack and was stabbed in the abdomen, but she didn't even frown.
Yu Xin's excited eyes wavered a little, and then she felt her hand holding the knife being grabbed and unable to move.
Shao Leyan ignored Yu Xin's surprised look, held Yu Xin's wrist with one hand, and pulled her hand upwards with force. With the other hand, he held the dagger tightly and stabbed it into Yu Xin's heart decisively.
"you……"
Yu Xin had just said one word when the corner of her mouth began to bleed. Her eyes moved downwards and she realized that the knife she was holding had been pushed towards Shao Leyan's heart.
Shao Leyan endured the heart-wrenching pain, let go of his hand, and pushed Yu Xin hard.
Both men had daggers stuck in their hearts, and they vomited blood and fell to the ground.
At this moment, Shao Leyan heard a burst of exclamations from the crowd, among which her name was the loudest.
"Le Yan!"
Wen Youheng roared in a very ungraceful manner, pushed away the leader and his subordinates who were trying to stop him, and staggered to Shao Leyan and knelt down without hesitation.
He looked at the dying person and tried carefully to stop her bleeding. His hands waved around unconsciously, but he didn't know where to start.
Li Shu's face was as pale as a ghost that had just crawled out of the ground. She resisted the urge to vomit, and remembered Li Song's words asking her to take care of Shao Leyan and the other person, and looked at Fang Di silently.
Fang Di had a faint smile on his face, not worried at all that the two healing ability users would both die and that he would be left with no security in the future.
Li Shu's heart sank.
At this time, Fang Di opened her thin lips slightly.
"Who do you think will wake up first?"
Xing Lu pursed her lips and spoke first, "I think Shao Leyan will wake up first."
Fang Di raised her eyebrows and said, "I thought you would say Yu Xin."
"Shao Leyan saved my man. He was only breathing his last breath at the time. Shao Leyan gave him something strange to drink, and he woke up within a few minutes. I still believe her."
Fang Di tilted her head and asked Li Shu, "What do you think?"
"I think Yu Xin will wake up first."
Fang Di seemed a little disappointed, and curled the corners of his mouth, "Oh, so that's it."
At this moment, Xie Miao, who had been concentrating on peeling the fruit, suddenly spoke with a smile.
"It's possible that neither of them will wake up!"
Fang Di was pleased by this and hooked Xie Miao's chin with her index finger, "You're showing off again!"
Xie Miao suddenly smiled, bent down and crawled into Fang Di's arms following her fingers. The two of them were very affectionate and laughed together.
Suddenly, a cry of surprise came from the crowd.
"Look! She's awake!"
Wen Youheng stared at Shao Leyan without blinking, afraid of missing any unusual movement on her part.
Although he knew that she had the ability to resurrect, he saw with his own eyes the dagger cutting from her abdomen all the way to her heart, and the blood dyed her entire shirt red. With such a serious and fatal injury, was there any possibility of her surviving?
But when Shao Leyan weakly opened his eyes, the clouds of doubt that shrouded his heart dissipated with the wind, the blocked sunlight instantly spread across the earth, and his cold hands gradually warmed up.
Shao Leyan was so irritated by the severe pain in her heart that her breathing was trembling. She opened her mouth, and Wen Youheng immediately leaned down and put his ear close to her mouth.
"Draw...the sword...quickly!"
As soon as he finished speaking, Wen Youheng held her arm and pulled out the dagger. The blood spurting out from Shao Leyan's chest was as high as an arm.
Everyone was so frightened by Wen Youheng's actions that they forgot to breathe. Shao Leyan, who had just woken up with great difficulty, felt that there was no hope at all.
Fang Di's surprised expression immediately faded, replaced by regret that he had failed to live up to his expectations.
"This Xiao Wen looks quite smart, but why does he do things so violently? Can the dagger stuck in the heart be pulled out directly? How did Li Song choose this person?"
Li Shu was already feeling upset because he was worried about Shao Leyan's victory or defeat, and now after hearing the leader's angry accusations, he couldn't even raise his head.
Xing Lu curled her lips and looked at Li Shu's aggrieved expression, not daring to breathe. She felt relieved and couldn't help but say proudly, "Xiao Wen might be doing this for Shao Leyan's own good. Such a sharp dagger stuck in the heart will also affect the healing ability."
Fang Di nodded after hearing this and asked someone to pull the dagger out of Yu Xin's body.
Wen Youheng witnessed the blood and flesh growing wildly from Shao Leyan's heart wound and was stunned for a moment. Even after Shao Leyan woke up again, he was still immersed in shock and could not calm down for a long time.
There really are people in this world who can come back to life from the dead.
And she's the woman he likes.
His first reaction was to be glad that Shao Leyan passed Fang Di's test, and was able to survive and successfully enter the core leadership of the Chiyan District. But after the excitement passed, the feeling of inferiority came back, and Wen Youheng suddenly felt that he was not worthy of Shao Leyan.
