Ou Zizhan removed the mask from his face and stared intently at Blood Scorpion's face.
Blood Scorpion was very handsome. Fang Zong had said that he thought Blood Scorpion looked like a young man in his late twenties who was still in school. However, he thought that if Fang Zong saw Blood Scorpion's face now, he would definitely not think that way.
That's right, Blood Scorpion has delicate features and looks very 'polite'.
But at this moment, Blood Scorpion truly laughed heartily. Two diagonal lines suddenly appeared on the sides of his mouth, where there were only shallow dimples. These were cut by his fellow disciples when he was down on his luck in the Blood Fiend Sect, and the two wounds went deep into his temples.
His head was just a hair's breadth away from splitting into three pieces.
"My face looks terrible, doesn't it?" Blood Scorpion continued drinking, seemingly unconcerned about how terrifying his face would become if he laughed so wildly.
He recalled when he first joined the sect, he was insulted by his elders, bullied by his fellow disciples, and almost died. He ran to the valley alone and cried.
At that time, he met Ou Zizhan.
Ou Zizhan sat in front of a cenotaph, drinking and coughing.
"Hey, I remember you can drink. You taught me that if someone hits me, I should hit back, and if someone harms me, I should kill them! If I can't beat them, I should kneel down and beg for mercy and find another chance to kill them... You taught me the survival rules of monsters, but why do I feel like you're becoming more and more like a human?" Blood Scorpion wrapped his arms around Ou Zizhan's neck, determined to straighten him out of his 'bent' path.
Ou Zizhan shook his head even more resolutely. "Like a real person now?" He smiled, very happily.
Blood Scorpion shouted exaggeratedly, "Why don't you want to be a monster anymore? Monsters have such a good way of behaving! Look at that suit-wearing thug, he's the number one young warrior, the future leader of the Ghost Killing Team, and he still got tricked by us! He thought he had your help so he went to hunt down the Queen, and then... Hahahaha, Miao Ying, don't be afraid, we don't kill people, we don't want to fall out with that kid Fang Zong!"
He laughed loudly, smashed a bottle, and then drank the wine in the room.
Blood Scorpion acted as if he were at home, muttering, "Fifty million! I have to drink some of it back," and rummaged through drawers and cabinets looking for good wine and cigarettes.
Ignoring Hu Batian's bristling and whining, he pointed at the green tortoise protecting Miao Ying and Ye Xiuxiu and laughed: "Ou Zizhan, look at this, it's like a survival manual for the evil sects. Your monsters' 'bullying the weak and fearing the strong' and 'shameless' ways are so good, you can survive. This little yellow cat is acting like a human, trying to help Fang Zong stop me. If I were a little worse or more wicked, or if Fang Zong couldn't protect me, he would already be dead."
This green-haired turtle is good; it only protects what it cares about. What it cares about is the same as you, Ye Xiuxiu, right? That's why it protects Miao Ying and…”
As he spoke, Blood Scorpion's hazy, drunken eyes suddenly snapped open, staring at the person behind Miao Ying.
Fang Zong stood behind Miao Ying and raised his hand to greet her: "Hi."
"Hi," Blood Scorpion replied.
Then he immediately turned around, rubbing his eyes: "I must be drunk, I must be dizzy, I went to the wrong door, I have to go back, Ou Zizhan, let's go back together..." He tugged at Ou Zizhan, preparing to jump off the balcony, but couldn't move him.
“Ou Zizhan, the monster I treated as my brother, as my father…”
Muttering to himself, Blood Scorpion's eyes slowly turned red.
He looked intently at Ou Zizhan, then turned to look at Fang Zong, let out two shrill laughs, and smashed all the wine bottles in his hand on the ground.
Glass shattered on the ground. Blood Scorpion sat directly on the ground, letting the broken glass shards pierce his body and draw blood, but he felt no pain. He only felt his mind was in turmoil, as if many needles were desperately pricking him.
"Ou Zizhan, you betrayed me!" He wanted to curse, but couldn't get the words out; his sharp white teeth even bled from biting them...
Ou Zizhan said very seriously, "I didn't betray you."
"Heh." Blood Scorpion said in a low voice, "Without your teaching, I would have died in the Blood Fiend Sect long ago. Betrayal is betrayal. Don't worry about me seeking revenge. Besides, would I even have the chance to seek revenge?"
As he spoke, he took out his phone, played his entrance background music, and hummed softly: "Life's journey is long, like a beautiful dream, with frost and snow in the dream, the frost and snow hitting the face..." He hummed a couple of lines, then choked up and gave a low, mournful laugh: "Fang Zong, according to our agreement, I won't make a move if you're here, but now that I'm here, you have an excuse to kill me. Do it."
Fang Zong shook his head: "Why would I kill you?"
"The Ghost Killing Team has always wanted to get rid of me, but they just can't find an excuse to kill me and can't keep the evil faction in line." Blood Scorpion sneered, "Even if they join the Dao Alliance, the evil faction is never under the jurisdiction of the Dao Alliance's leaders. The evil faction is just a bunch of disorganized people. Only I, as the middleman, have connected the entire evil faction. If you kill me, the Ghost Killing Team will give you a great credit!"
Fang Zong exclaimed in surprise, "Really?"
Blood Scorpion: "Haha."
Fang Zong: "But I still can't find a reason to kill you."
"Isn't a great achievement a valid reason?"
"Yes!" Fang Zong answered confidently. The great contribution of the Ghost Killing Team was indeed very useful, but he had already made enough contributions and was unwilling to let Ou Zizhan suddenly turn against him and start fighting him to the death just to kill a Blood Scorpion.
Fang Zong pointed at Ou Zizhan, who finally relaxed and handed a cell phone to Blood Scorpion.
Blood Scorpion took the phone, still confused. He turned it on and saw that it was the one he had given to Fang Zong. He paused for a moment, then swiped to open the navigation map.
The map was completely empty, without a single labeled information.
